Item 1.01      Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On September 24, 2018 (the “Effective Date”), nLIGHT, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into the Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (as amended, amended and restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”) with Pacific Western Bank (the “Bank”), pursuant to which the Bank agreed to extend a $40 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) to the Company. This Loan Agreement will supersede the previous Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement by and among the Company and the Bank dated as of March 28, 2018 (as amended from time to time, the “Original Agreement”). The Company initially intends to use the Revolving Credit Facility to repay in full the term loan and revolving borrowings currently outstanding under the Original Agreement. The Revolving Credit Facility provides available credit for working capital, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes, with a later maturity date and a more favorable interest rate than the Original Agreement.
 
Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a per annum rate, depending on certain liquidity thresholds, ranging from adjusted LIBOR plus 1.35% to 2.25%, or prime rate minus 1.40% to 0.50%. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default, a default interest rate will apply that is 5.0% above the otherwise applicable interest rate. The Company may draw upon the Revolving Credit Facility until September 24, 2021.
 
The Company may prepay and terminate the Revolving Credit Facility with prior written notice to the Bank with no additional prepayment fee or premium.
 
The Loan Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of default and affirmative and negative covenants, including, among others, covenants that limit or restrict the Company’s ability to incur indebtedness, grant liens, merge or consolidate, dispose of assets, make investments, make acquisitions, enter into certain transactions with affiliates, engage in any new line of business, pay dividends or make distributions, or repurchase common shares, in each case subject to certain exceptions. As security for its obligations under the Loan Agreement, the Company granted the Bank a first priority security interest on substantially all of the Company’s assets (including its intellectual property), subject to certain other exceptions.

The foregoing terms of the Loan Agreement is a summary, is not complete, and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the actual Loan Agreement, a copy of which is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
