Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Credit Agreement and Security Agreement

On December 18, 2017, ORBCOMM Inc. (the “Company”) and certain of its subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”) entered into a senior secured revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan Chase”), as administrative agent and collateral agent.

The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $25,000,000 for working capital and general corporate purposes.

The Facility matures on December 18, 2022 (the “Maturity Date”).

At the Company’s election, extensions of loans under the Facility will bear interest at an alternative base rate or an adjusted LIBO rate, plus an applicable margin as described below:

The applicable interest margins are 1.50% in the case of alternative base rate loans and 2.50% in the case of adjusted LIBO rate loans.

The Facility will be secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ assets under a Security Agreement among the Company, its subsidiaries and JPMorgan Chase (the “Security Agreement”). The Facility has no scheduled principal amortization until the Maturity Date. Subject to the terms set forth in the Credit Agreement, the Company may borrow, repay and reborrow the Facility at any time prior to the Maturity Date.

The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, conditions to funding, covenants and events of default.

The Credit Agreement contains covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s and its restricted subsidiaries’ ability to: (i) incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; (ii) pay dividends, make other distributions or repurchase or redeem capital stock; (iii) prepay, redeem or repurchase certain indebtedness; (iv) make loans and investments; (v) sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of assets; (vi) incur or permit to exist certain liens; (vii) enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates; (viii) enter into agreements restricting the Company’s subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; and (ix) consolidate, amalgamate, merge or sell all or substantially all of their assets; subject, in all cases, to certain specified exceptions. Such limitations have various baskets as set forth in the Credit Agreement.

The foregoing description of the covenants under the Credit Agreement and the Security Agreement is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Credit Agreement and the Security Agreement (in each case including the exhibits thereto), copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Report”) and are incorporated herein by reference.

The Intercreditor Agreement governs the rights of the lenders under the Credit Agreement and the holders of the Notes with respect to the collateral.

The foregoing description of the Intercreditor Agreement is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Intercreditor Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.3 to this Report, and is incorporated herein by reference.
