Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On August 4, 2009 (the “Effective Date”), Analysts International Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Netarx LLC, a Michigan limited liability company (“Netarx”), pursuant to which Netarx acquired certain assets as set forth in the Agreement related to the Company’s value-added reseller business (the “VAR Business”) including, but not limited to certain customer contracts (subject to the receipt of any required consents to the assignment to Netarx) (the “Customer Contracts”), tangible personal property, intellectual property, deferred revenues, inventories and software used in connection with the VAR Business. Netarx assumed specified liabilities related to the VAR Business (the “Assumed Liabilities”) including, as more fully set forth in the Agreement but not limited to, all liabilities under the Customer Contracts of any kind arising from and after the Effective Date, to the extent any such liability is based on services or products provided by Netarx under the Customer Contracts subsequent to the Effective Date (including the agreed upon cost-basis for work related to any deferred revenue); and specifically excluding warranty obligations based on services provided by the Company under the Customer Contracts prior to the Effective Date.
The consideration paid to the Company (the “Purchase Price”) includes the Assumed Liabilities plus Three Million Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($3,750,000), in the form of Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) cash (subject to offset in the amount of $245,505.98, the agreed-upon balance of customer credits) and a non-negotiable promissory note in the face value up to Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($750,000) (the “Note”) with all vested principal and interest due and payable in a single lump sum on or before August 16, 2010. The Note is subject to certain vesting conditions related to obtaining consents to the assignment to Netarx of Customer Contracts.
The Agreement contains representations and warranties, covenants and indemnification customary for a transaction of this nature, as well as covenants requiring the Company not to compete with Netarx in certain areas related to the VAR Business for three (3) years.
In connection with the Agreement, Netarx will make offers of employment to certain employees of the Company. The Company will waive and agreed not to enforce any non-compete provisions of such employees.
The Company and Netarx agreed to negotiate a mutually acceptable agreement covering certain transitional services to be provided by each party within thirty (30) days of the Effective Date and to negotiate a mutually agreeable alliance agreement covering future work together.
The foregoing description of the terms and conditions of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report and incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein.
Amendment to Credit Agreement
Effective August 4, 2009, the Company entered into a Consent and Twelfth Amendment (the “Amendment”) to its Credit Agreement dated as of April 11, 2002 (the “Credit Agreement”) with General Electric Capital Corporation as a lender and as agent and security trustee for the lenders.
Among other things, the Amendment provides the Company with consent and limited release of security interests to sell certain assets related to its VAR Business pursuant to the Agreement with Netarx. The consent is conditioned upon the proceeds of such sale being used to prepay loans pursuant to the Credit Agreement.
The Amendment also reduces the availability under the credit facility from $45.0 million to $15.0 million, adjusts the unused commitment fee from 0.25% to 0.75%, adjusts the revolver interest rate from LIBOR plus 2% to LIBOR plus 3.75% and adjusts the Minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio covenant.
