Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On November 3, 2009, ClearOne Communications, Inc. (“ClearOne”) entered into and closed the Merger Agreement with Alta-Wasatch Acquisition Corporation (“Alta-Wasatch”), our wholly owned subsidiary and NetStreams, Inc (“NetStreams”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Alta-Wasatch, merged into NetStreams (the “Merger”).

In connection with the closing of the Merger on November 3, 2009, we entered into the Joinder to the Loan and Security Agreement (the “Joinder”) and the Seventh Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement (the “Seventh Amendment”).

Pursuant to the Joinder, we entered into the Loan and Security Agreement as a co-borrower and assumed certain obligations under the Loan and Security Agreement. We were not required to pledge additional security interests to the Bank. The existing collateral arrangement with respect to Borrowers’ assets continues to secure the obligations of the parties under the Loan and Security Agreement. In connection therewith, NetSteams entered into the Seventh Amendment which obligates us to the Loan and Security Agreement in the amount of $2,000,000 and payment of Interest (as defined in the Loan and Security Agreement) under the Formula Revolving Line (as defined in the Loan and Security Agreement) shall be due and payable on the first calendar day of each month during the term of the Loan and Security Agreement.

On December 22, 2009 ClearOne along with NetStreams executed the Eighth Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (“Eighth Amendment”) with Square 1 Bank. The effect of the agreement is to extend the forbearance period from December 15, 2009 to January 15, 2010.

The foregoing descriptions of the Joinder, Seventh Amendment and Eighth Amendment are only summaries and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Joinder, Seventh Amendment and Eighth amendment, which are attached hereto as exhibits.

EIGHTH AMENDMENT TO LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

This Seventh Amendment to Forbearance Agreement and Eighth Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (the “Amendment”), is entered into as of December 15, 2009, by and between SQUARE 1 BANK (the “Bank”) and CLEARONE COMMUNICATIONS, INC., NETSTREAMS, INC. and  NETSTREAMS, LLC (collectively, “Borrower).
 
RECITALS
 
Borrower and Bank are parties to that certain Loan and Security Agreement dated as of November 12, 2008 (as amended from time to time, with related documents, including that certain Joinder to Loan and Security Agreement dated as of November 3, 2009, the “Loan Agreement”). Borrower and Bank are parties to that certain Forbearance Agreement and First Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of March 31, 2009 (as amended from time to time, the “Forbearance Agreement”).  The parties desire to amend the Loan Agreement and the Forbearance Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Amendment.
 
Now, therefore, the parties agree as follows:

1)  
Borrower is in violation of the monthly reporting requirements, as set forth in Section 6.2(a) and Section 6.2(b) of the Loan Agreement, for the reporting period ending October 31, 2009 (“October Reporting Violation”), and has informed Bank that it anticipates also being in violation of such monthly reporting requirements for the reporting period ending November 30, 2009 (“November Anticipated Reporting Violation”). Bank hereby waives the aforementioned October Reporting Violation and November Anticipated Reporting Violation.

2)  
Section 3 of the Forbearance Agreement is hereby amended and restated, in its entirety, as follows:

 
3.
Forbearance. Borrower acknowledges the existence of the Existing Default under the Loan Agreement.  Borrower further acknowledges and agrees that Bank is not in any way agreeing to waive such Existing Default as a result of this Agreement or the performance by the parties of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder.  Subject to the conditions contained herein and performance by Borrower of all of the terms of this Agreement and the Loan Agreement after the date hereof, Bank shall, until the earliest of (i) January 15, 2010, or (ii) such date that there shall occur any further Event of Default (the “Forbearance Period”), forbear from exercising any remedies that it may have against Borrower as a result of the occurrence of the Existing Default.  Such forbearance does not apply to any other Event of Default or other failure by Borrower to perform in accordance with the Loan Agreement or this Agreement.  This forbearance shall not be deemed a continuing waiver or forbearance with respect to any Event of Default of a similar nature that may occur after the date of this Agreement.

 

 
3)  
The following definition in Exhibit A to the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated, in its entirety, as follows:
 
Term Loan Maturity Date” means January 15, 2010.

4)  
Unless otherwise defined, all initially capitalized terms in this Amendment shall be as defined in the Loan Agreement or the Forbearance Agreement.  The Loan Agreement or the Forbearance Agreement, as amended hereby, shall be and remain in full force and effect in accordance with its respective terms and hereby is ratified and confirmed in all respects.  Except as expressly set forth herein, the execution, delivery, and performance of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of, or as an amendment of, any right, power, or remedy of Bank under the Loan Agreement or Forbearance Agreement, as in effect prior to the date hereof.  Borrower ratifies and reaffirms the continuing effectiveness of all agreements entered into in connection with the Loan Agreement or Forbearance Agreement.
 
5)  
Borrower represents and warrants that the representations and warranties contained in the Loan Agreement or Forbearance Agreement are true and correct as of the date of this Amendment.
 
6)  
This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument.
 
7)  
As a condition to the effectiveness of this Amendment, Bank shall have received, in form and substance satisfactory to Bank, the following:
 
(a)  
this Amendment, duly executed by Borrower;
 
(b)  
payment of all Bank Expenses, including Bank’s expenses for the documentation of this Amendment and any related documents, which may be debited from any of Borrower's accounts; and
 
(c)  
such other documents and completion of such other matters, as Bank may reasonably deem necessary or appropriate.
