Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On June 14, 2016, Applied Optoelectronics, Inc. (the “Company”) executed a Change in Terms Agreement, Notice of Final Agreement and Modification to the Construction Loan Agreement (the “Amended Agreements”) with East West Bank (the “Bank”). The Amended Agreements amends and restates in part the Company’s Promissory Note and Construction Loan Agreement which was originally executed with the Bank on January 26, 2015 (the “Original Agreements”). The Original Agreements provided the Company up to $22 million to finance the construction of the Company’s campus expansion plan. The amount of financing provided by the Bank under the Amended Agreements remains unchanged.

 

The maturity date and the draw down period end date, under Amended Agreements, are amended from April 26, 2016 to July 31, 2016. And thereafter, the entire outstanding principal balance shall be converted to a sixty-six (66) month term loan, amended from a sixty-nine (69) month term loan, with principal and interest payments due monthly amortized over three hundred (300) months. The first principal and interest payment is due on August 26, 2016 and will continue on the same day of each month thereafter. The final principal and interest payment is due on January 26, 2022 and will include all unpaid principal and all accrued and unpaid interest.

 

The Original Agreements stated an annual interest rate based the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) for deposits in U.S. Dollars plus 2.75%. Under the Amended Agreements, the interest rate is amended to bear interest at an annual rate based on the one-month LIBOR for deposits in U.S. Dollars plus 2.00%. 

 

The foregoing description of the Amended Agreements does not purport to be a complete statement of the parties’ rights and obligations under the Amended Agreements and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended Agreements, copies of which are attached as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.
