Item 1.01:                                         Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On June 21, 2005, Versant Corporation (“Versant” or the “Company”) and Silicon Valley Bank (the “Bank”) entered into a Loan and Security Agreement, a Streamline Facility Agreement and an Intellectual Property Security Agreement (collectively, the “Loan Agreements”) which set forth the terms and conditions of a secured accounts receivable line of credit for Versant with the Bank.

 

Under the Loan Agreements, Versant may borrow up to a maximum of $3.0 million from the Bank at any one time under a revolving secured accounts receivable-based line of credit.  This line of credit permits Versant to obtain short-term loan advances from the Bank equal to a percentage of the face amount of specific eligible accounts receivable of Versant (this percentage is initially 80% of the face amount but may be decreased by the Bank in its discretion on a case-by-case basis). The interest rate on each advance will be either 4.0% or 4.5% above the Bank’s prime rate.  Each advance made to Versant under this credit facility must be repaid by no later than the date when the receivable on which the Bank’s advance is based is paid to Versant, and may be due earlier in certain circumstances.  In particular, Versant’s obligations to repay loans may be accelerated in the event of a default by Versant under the Loan Agreements.  Versant’s ability to receive loan advances under the Loan Agreements is also subject to Versant’s continued compliance with various covenants, representations, warranties and conditions, including but not limited to negative covenants against certain sale of assets or mergers involving Versant or its subsidiaries.

 

Versant’s obligations to the Bank under the Loan Agreements are secured by a first security interest in all of Versant’s assets, including its equipment, cash and intellectual property.  Versant must also pay the Bank certain fees to establish and maintain this credit facility, and agree to maintain certain of its deposit accounts with the Bank subject to certain account control arrangements. The credit facility provided by the Loan Agreements expires and terminates by no later than June 21, 2007.
