HSBC Bank plc.

 

On October 25, 2010, MAM Ltd., entered into a three-year term loan agreement with HSBC Bank plc. (“HSBC”) as lender (the “HSBC Term Loan”). The HSBC Term Loan provides for £1,324,550 (approximately $2.0 million at the exchange rate on October 25, 2010) with a term of three years from the date the HSBC Term Loan is first drawn down. The HSBC Term Loan is repayable in thirty-six (36) monthly installments, inclusive of interest, together with such sums in the final month to discharge the balance of the HSBC Term Loan.

 

The interest rate under the HSBC Term Loan is 2.9% per annum over HSBC’s Sterling Base Rate, as published from time to time, which totals 3.4% at September 30, 2012. A prepayment fee of 1.5% of the amount prepaid will be payable by the Company in the event of the HSBC Term Loan being refinanced to another lender. 

 

The HSBC Term Loan is secured by the following instruments: a guarantee granted by the Company, ASNA and MAM Software Inc. in favor of HSBC pursuant to which each would guarantee the repayment of the HSBC Term Loan (the “Guarantee”); an all assets debenture granted by MAM Ltd. in favor of HSBC including a first fixed charge over book debts and stock, which would create fixed and floating the charges over the assets and undertaking of MAM Ltd. for the provision of the HSBC Term Loan (“Debenture”); and a mortgage of the life insurance policies in favor of MAM Ltd. in relation to a Company employee and the Company’s CEO. The Company recorded debt issuance fees of $60,000 related to the HSBC Term Loan, which is being amortized over the life of the loan. Amortization expense was $4,000 and $8,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The HSBC Term Loan contains various financial covenants. As of September 30, 2012, the Company was in compliance with all such covenants.
