Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On October 24, 2005, Silicon Graphics, Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Silicon Graphics Federal, Inc. and Silicon Graphics World Trade Corporation (the “Borrowers”), entered into the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Foothill, Inc. and Ableco Finance LLC, which amends its existing asset-based credit facility with Wells Fargo Foothill, Inc. The Credit Agreement provides for a new, increased credit facility of up to $100 million, consisting of a $50 million revolving line of credit and a $50 million term loan. The previous facility provided availability of up to $50 million, but was subject to a minimum cash collateral requirement of $20 million.

 

Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the new credit facility is secured by substantially all the assets of the Borrowers and the borrowing base will be determined weekly based on the value of working capital items, real estate and intellectual property. In addition, the Credit Agreement does not require the permanent deposit of cash collateral, which is a significant change in the terms of the new credit facility compared to the prior credit facility.

 

The Credit Agreement expires on October 24, 2007. It includes financial covenants and other terms and conditions customary to credit facilities of this type. Among other things, these financial covenants provide for minimum levels of EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), minimum levels of cash and cash equivalents, and limits on capital expenditures. Subject to certain specified exceptions, the Credit Agreement also limits the ability of Borrowers and their subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, create liens on their assets, enter into certain transactions (including mergers, consolidations and reorganizations), dispose of certain assets, pay dividends or other distributions on capital stock, repurchase capital stock or prepay or repurchase debt obligations. The Credit Agreement is subject to acceleration upon various customary events of default.

 

The Company has historically used the credit facility solely to support letters of credit, including the $44 million in letters of credit required under the Company’s lease obligations for the Crittenden and Amphitheatre Technology Center campuses in Mountain View, CA. The Company intends to use the additional capacity under the credit facility for cash borrowings to support its current operations.

 

The Borrowers have also entered into a Security Agreement, an Intellectual Property Security Agreement, a Copyright Security Agreement, a Patent Security Agreement and a Trademark Security Agreement, each dated as of October 24, 2005, under which the obligations of the Borrowers under the Credit Agreement are secured by certain intellectual property and other assets of the Borrowers.

 

The descriptions of the Credit Agreement and the related security agreements set forth above are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Credit Agreement, the Security Agreement, the Intellectual Property Security Agreement, the Copyright Security Agreement, the Patent Security Agreement and the Trademark Security Agreement, which are attached as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5 and 10.6 respectively.
