Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
New Senior Secured Convertible Notes
On November 14, 2023, Edgio, Inc. (the “Company” or “we”) entered into a private exchange with Lynrock Lake Master Fund LP (“Lynrock”), holding an aggregate of $118,870,000 in principal amount of the Company’s outstanding 3.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the “Existing Notes”). In exchange for Lynrock’s Existing Notes, the Company issued Lynrock $118,870,000 in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Company’s new (3.5% cash / 16% PIK) Senior Secured Convertible Notes due 2027 (the “New Notes”).
The New Notes will be secured by first priority security interests in substantially all of the assets of the Company (the “Collateral”) and will be guaranteed by all existing and future wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantors”).
The New Notes will be issued pursuant to an indenture dated November 14, 2023, among the Company, as issuer, the Guarantors, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Indenture”).
If approved by shareholders (as described further below), the New Notes will be convertible at certain times into common shares of the Company at an initial conversion rate of 684.93 common shares of the Company per $1,000 principal amount of New Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $1.46 per common share of the Company) subject to anti-dilution provisions and a beneficial ownership limitation of the Company’s common stock, on a post-conversion basis of 4.99%. Certain requirements govern settlement of the New Notes upon conversion, which are outlined below.
The Indenture includes customary covenants and sets forth certain events of default after which the New Notes may be declared immediately due and payable and sets forth certain types of bankruptcy or insolvency events of default involving us after which the New Notes become automatically due and payable.
The New Notes have a stated maturity of November 14, 2027, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased in accordance with their terms prior to the maturity date. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears on February 14, May 14, August 14 and November 14 of each year, beginning on February 14, 2024. The holders of the New Notes may convert all or any portion of their New Notes at their option at any time and from time to time (i) after the earlier of (x) the Shareholder Approvals and (y) January 26, 2024, so long as the Conversion Prohibition Right (as defined below) is not validly in effect and (ii) in any event only in the following circumstances:
(1) during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price per share of our common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price of $1.46 for each of at least 20 trading days, whether or not consecutive, during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter;
(2) during the five consecutive business days immediately after any ten consecutive trading day period (such ten consecutive trading day period, the measurement period) in which the trading price per $1 principal amount of New Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price per share of our common stock on such trading day and the conversion rate on such trading day;
(3) upon the occurrence of certain corporate events or distributions of our common stock; and
(4) if the Company calls such New Notes for redemption.
