Section 1 – Registrant’s Business and Operations

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On September 28, 2018 (the “Closing Date”), QuickLogic Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a Loan and Security

Agreement (the "Agreement") with Heritage Bank of Commerce (the "Bank"). The Agreement provided for, among other things, a revolving credit facility with aggregate commitments of $9,000,000 (the “Revolving Facility”). The maturity date for loans under the Revolving Facility is September 28, 2020. Loans under the Revolving Facility will bear interest at a rate equal to one half of one percentage point (0.50%) above the variable rate of interest, per annum, that appears in The Wall Street Journal from time to time, whether or not such announced rate is the lowest rate available from Bank.

 

Financial covenants of the Revolving Facility require the Company to (i) maintain at all times a balance of unrestricted

cash in its pledged account not less than the principal amount of all advances owing to the Bank and (ii) maintain at all times, but subject to periodic reporting as of the last day of each quarter a Remaining Months Liquidity not less than nine (9). For purposes of the Revolving Facility, “Remaining Months Liquidity” means (i) unrestricted cash maintained at Bank (including cash in the Company’s pledged account) minus the outstanding principal amount of the cash advances under the Revolving Facility, divided by (ii) average trailing three (3) month EBITDA. These covenants and restrictions also limit the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of its assets and enter into transactions with affiliates.

The foregoing description of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto.

 

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 above in Item 1.01 is incorporated by reference herein.
