Item 8.01. Other Events

 

On September 19, 2005, the Company announced that it had executed a commitment letter with Wells Fargo Foothill, Inc. and Ableco Finance LLC with respect to a new asset-backed credit facility that will provide availability of up to $100 million. The new two-year facility, which will consist of a $50 million revolving line of credit and a term loan of $50 million, will replace SGI’s existing asset-based facility. The existing facility provides availability of up to $50 million, but is subject to a minimum cash collateral requirement of $20 million to support the borrowing base. The new facility has no minimum cash collateral requirement. The existing facility is used principally to support letters of credit required under leases for facilities in Mountain View, CA. The new facility will support the letters of credit and is expected to provide significant additional liquidity to support operations. A copy of the press release announcing execution of the commitment letter is included as an exhibit to and incorporated by reference in this Current Report on Form 8-K.
