Section 1 – Registrant’s Business and Operations
Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On November 26, 2008, Digital Angel Corporation (the “Company”), Destron Fearing Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Destron”), along with Digital Angel Technology Corporation and Digital Angel International, Inc., wholly-owned subsidiaries of Destron, entered into a Letter Agreement (“Amendment”) with Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. (“Laurus”), Kallina Corporation (“Kallina”), Valens Offshore SPV I, Ltd., Valens Offshore SPV II Corp, Valens US SPV I, LLC and Psource Structured Debt Limited (collectively, the “Lenders”, which are all affiliated) and LV Administrative Services, Inc., the administrative and collateral agent for the Lenders, to amend, among other things, the Secured Term Note dated as of August 31, 2007 in the original principal amount of $7,000,000 from the Company originally in the favor of Kallina (“2007 Note”) and the Secured Term Note dated as of August 24, 2006 in the original principal amount of $13,500,000 from the Company originally in the favor of Laurus (“2006 Note”).
Under the terms of the Amendment, the monthly principal payments due under the 2006 Note and 2007 Note were reduced by about 50% to approximately $108,300 in the aggregate during the period commencing on December 1, 2008 through April 1, 2009 and approximately $208,300 in the aggregate during the period commencing on May 1, 2009 through January 1, 2010. In exchange for reducing the monthly payments, the Company will pay the Lenders a deferred fee of $800,000 either on the maturity date of the notes or when the notes are prepaid in full or accelerated upon default. The fee is payable either in cash, shares of the Company’s common stock or a combination of both. If the fee is paid with shares of common stock, the fee will be based on a 20% discount to the then-current market price of the common stock.
The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the transactional document.
On December 1, 2008, the Company issued a press release regarding the Amendment. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, which is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. The information in Exhibit 99.1 shall not be incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
