Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Sale Lease-Back

On November 6, 2013, Dataram Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a financing arrangement with David Sheerr (“Sheerr”), an executive officer of the Company, structured as a sale lease-back. Pursuant to the arrangement, the Company sold certain equipment and furniture located at its facility at 130 Corporate Drive, Montgomeryville, PA 18936 (the “Montgomeryville Facility”) to Sheerr in consideration for a reduction of $500,000 in the remaining principal balance of an outstanding promissory note owed to Sheerr, which promissory note was amended and restated (the “Amended and Restated Note and Security Agreement”). As additional security for the Amended and Restated Note and Security Agreement, the Company collaterally assigned to Sheerr its lease to the Montgomeryville Facility pursuant to a Collateral Assignment of Tenant’s Interest in Lease (the “Collateral Assignment”). The Amended and Restated Note and Security Agreement and the Collateral Assignment are attached as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and are incorporated herein by reference.

Simultaneously, the Company leased the equipment and furniture back from Sheerr pursuant to an Equipment and Furniture Lease Agreement (the “Lease”). The Lease has a 5 year term, and provides the Company with the option to extend the term for an additional 2 years. The monthly lease payments that the Company is obligated to pay under the terms of the lease is approximately $7,500. Sheerr will retain possession of the equipment and furniture upon termination of the Lease. The Lease is attached as Exhibit 10.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and is incorporated herein by reference.

Financing Agreement

On November 6, 2013, the Company entered into a new financing agreement (the “Financing Agreement”) with Rosenthal & Rosenthal, Inc. The Financing Agreement provides for a revolving loan with a maximum borrowing capacity of $3,500,000. The loans under the Financing Agreement mature on November 30, 2016 unless such Financing Statement is either earlier terminated or renewed. Loans outstanding under the Financing Agreement will bear interest at a rate of the Prime Rate (as defined in the Financing Agreement) plus 3.25% (the “Effective Rate”) or on Over-advances (as defined in the Financing Agreement), if any, at a rate of the Effective Rate plus 3%. The Financing Agreement contains other restrictive covenants, including, among others, covenants limiting our ability to incur indebtedness, guarantee obligations, sell assets, make loans, enter into mergers and acquisition transactions and declare or make dividends. Borrowings under the Financing Agreement are collateralized by substantially all the assets of the Company.

The Financing Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.4 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and is incorporated herein by reference.

The key terms of the Sale Lease-Back and the Financing Agreement are described in a press release which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K and incorporated in this Item 1.01 by reference.

Item 1.02. Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

The Company used a portion of the proceeds from the Financing Agreement to repay in full all amounts due under the prior Amended and Restated Schedule to Loan and Security Agreement dated May 17, 2012 between Crestmark Capital Lending LLC and the Company (the “Prior Loan Agreement”). Upon such repayment, the Prior Loan Agreement was terminated.

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

The information set forth under Section 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.
