Item 1.01.  Entry in a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On October 26, 2015, ORBCOMM Inc. (“ORBCOMM” or the “Company”) entered into the First Amendment to Credit Agreement (“Amendment”) amending the Credit Agreement dated as of September 30, 2014 (the “Credit Agreement”) among the Company, each lender from time to time party thereto (collectively, the “Lender”) and Macquarie CAF LLC (“Macquarie”). The Amendment modifies the definition of Change of Control in the Credit Agreement to remove a provision that may constitute what is commonly referred to as a “dead hand proxy put,” whereby certain changes in the composition of the Company’s Board of Directors would have constituted a Change of Control under the Credit Agreement.

 

Under the Credit Agreement, if any Change of Control occurs, each Lender shall have the right to cancel its commitments thereunder and require the Company to prepay the loans held by such Lender, together with a fee of up to 1% as set forth in the Credit Agreement. The Amendment is responsive to recent developments under Delaware law occurring after the date of the original Credit Agreement.

 

The above description of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete Amendment, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
