Attn: Chief Financial Officer

 

Dear Mike:

 

We are pleased to advise you that based upon your annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2012, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “Bank”) has approved your request for a demand discretionary line of credit in the aggregate amount of $20,000,000 (the “Facility”). Our officers may, at their discretion, make short term loans to SeaChange International, Inc. (the “Company”), which loans will be evidenced by a Demand Promissory Note in the form of Annex 1 attached hereto (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Note”). Our officers may also issue commercial and standby letters of credit for the account of or by application of the Company on such terms as are mutually agreed upon between us from time to time, provided that at the time the Company requests the issuance of a letter of credit, and after giving effect to the issuance thereof, the aggregate amount issued under all letters of credit shall not exceed $5,000,000 and the aggregate amount outstanding of all loans and letters of credit hereunder shall not exceed at any time $20,000,000.

 

Credit extended under this line is intended to be used to meet the Company’s normal short term working capital and general corporate needs. Loans will bear interest at such a rate as shall be set forth in the Note. Letters of credit will be subject to such fees and charges as the Bank may require at the time of issuance.

 

The Company shall pay to the Bank an upfront fee equal to $5,000 on or before the date hereof. As this line is not a commitment, credit availability is, in addition, subject to the Company’s execution and delivery of such documentation as the Bank deems appropriate in its reasonable discretion and the receipt and continuing satisfaction with evidence of corporate power, authority and incumbency etc. and current financial information (including, without limitation, (a) within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company, delivery to the Bank of the Company’s audited consolidated form 10K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and (b) within 60 days after the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each fiscal year of the Company, delivery to the Bank of the Company’s consolidated form 10Q as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission), which information will be furnished to the Bank as it may from time to time reasonably request, and continuing satisfaction with the Company’s financial condition, business affairs and prospects and maintenance of a satisfactory relationship with the Bank. In addition, within 90 days of the date hereof, the Company shall, and shall cause each of its Domestic Subsidiaries (as hereinafter defined) and, unless otherwise agreed between the Bank and the Company, each of its subsidiaries organized in a foreign jurisdiction to, maintain its primary cash management and depository relationship (including, but not limited to, maintenance of all primary operating accounts) with the Bank. For the avoidance of doubt, any cash management and depository relationships entered into between the Bank or any of its affiliates, on the one hand, and any of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries, on the other hand, and any related cash or other amounts, shall in no way constitute a guaranty of, or security for, any of the Obligations of the Company, nor shall any of the assets of such foreign subsidiaries secure any of the obligations of the Company. Unless demanded sooner, which demand may be made for any or no reason, this line of credit expires on November 27, 2013. If the Company requests that the Bank make an advance or issue a letter of credit, in each case, under the Facility, the Bank shall, within five (5) business days of such request, provide the Company with a written response to such request, and, to the extent the Bank agrees to make such advance or issue such letter of credit in accordance with the terms of the Facility, the Bank shall make such advance or issue such letter of credit within a reasonable time thereafter. The Company shall be permitted to terminate the Facility in its sole discretion; provided that the Company (i) give the Bank ten (10) days’ prior written notice of such termination and (ii) repay in full any outstanding Obligations, or with respect to any outstanding letters of credit, cash collateralize in an amount not to exceed 105% of such letter of credit owed to the Bank under the Facility at such time.

DEMAND PROMISSORY NOTE

 

$20,000,000 New York, New York

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, SEACHANGE INTERNATIONAL, INC. (the “Borrower”), HEREBY ABSOLUTELY AND UNCONDITIONALLY PROMISES TO PAY to the order of JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A. (the “Bank”), at its offices located at 270 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10017 or at such other place as the Bank or any holder hereof may from time to time designate, the principal sum of TWENTY MILLION DOLLARS ($20,000,000), or such lesser amount as may constitute the outstanding balance hereof, in lawful money of the United States, ON DEMAND or, if earlier, on the Maturity Date (as hereinafter defined) set forth on the Bank’s books and records, which may be electronic in nature, and to pay interest in like money at such office or place from the date hereof on the unpaid principal balance of each Loan (as hereinafter defined) made hereunder at a rate equal to the Applicable Interest Rate (as hereinafter defined and computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year) for such Loan, which shall be payable in arrears ON DEMAND, or, if earlier, on the last day of the Interest Period (as hereinafter defined) relating to such Loan and, if such Interest Period is greater than three (3) months, at three (3) month intervals after such Loan is made, until such Loan shall be due and payable (whether on demand, at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise). Interest on any past due amount, whether at the due date thereof or by acceleration or upon default, shall be payable at a rate two percent (2%) per annum above the Applicable Interest Rate being charged on such Loan, which rate shall be computed for actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year and shall be adjusted as of the date of each such change, but in no event higher than the maximum permitted under applicable law.

 

The Borrower authorizes the Bank to charge to the Borrower’s primary operating account identified by the account number 000000789932571, which the Borrower maintains with the Bank, the principal, interest, fees, charges, taxes and expenses provided for in this demand promissory note or any other document executed or delivered in connection herewith.

 

The Bank may also issue commercial and standby letters of credit for the account of or by application of the Borrower on such terms as are mutually agreed upon between the Bank and the Borrower from time to time, provided that at the time the Borrower requests the issuance of a letter of credit, and after giving effect to the issuance thereof, the aggregate amount issued under all letters of credit shall not exceed $5,000,000 and the aggregate amount outstanding of all loans and letters of credit hereunder shall not exceed at any time $20,000,000.

Interest

 

The Bank is authorized to enter on its books and records, which may be electronic in nature, (i) the amount of each Loan made from time to time hereunder, (ii) the date on which each Loan is made, (iii) the date on which each Loan shall be due and payable to the Bank, provided that, unless sooner demanded, all Loans outstanding shall be due and payable no later than November 27, 2013 (the “Maturity Date”), (iv) the interest rate agreed between the Borrower and the Bank as the interest rate to be paid to the Bank on each Loan (each such rate, the “Applicable Interest Rate”), which rate shall be at (a) the Adjusted LIBO Rate (as hereinafter defined) plus the Applicable Margin (the “LIBOR Loan(s)”) or, if, as provided herein, LIBOR Loans are not available, (b) the CB Floating Rate plus the Applicable Margin (the “CB Floating Rate Loan(s)” and, collectively with the LIBOR Loan(s) the “Loans”), (v) the amount of each payment made hereunder, and (vi) the outstanding principal balance of the Loans hereunder from time to time. The date, amount, rate of interest (including any Applicable Margin) and maturity date of each Loan and payment(s) (if any) of principal, the Loan(s) to which such payment(s) will be applied (which shall be at the discretion of the Bank) and the outstanding principal balance of Loans shall be recorded by the Bank on its books and records (which may be electronic in nature) and at any time and from time to time may be, and shall be prior to any transfer and delivery of this Note, entered by the Bank on a schedule to be attached to this Note by the Bank (at the discretion of the Bank, any such entries may aggregate Loans (and payments thereon) with the same interest rate and tenor and, if made on a given date, may show only the Loans outstanding on such date). Any such entries shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The failure by the Bank to make any or all such entries shall not relieve the Borrower from its obligation to pay any and all amounts due hereunder.

 

Prepayment

 

The Borrower shall have the right to prepay any Loan prior to the Maturity Date of such Loan. In the event the Borrower prepays a LIBOR Loan prior to the end of the Applicable Interest Period therefor, the Borrower shall compensate the Bank on demand for any loss incurred or to be incurred by it in the reemployment of the funds released by any prepayment as calculated in accordance with the second paragraph of the Section captioned Indemnity.

 

Discretionary Loans by the Bank

 

The Bank, pursuant to a line letter (the “Line Letter Agreement”) dated as of November 28, 2012 has approved an uncommitted line of credit to the Borrower in a principal amount not to exceed the face amount of this Note. The execution and delivery of this Note and the acceptance by the Bank of this Note shall not be deemed or construed to create any contractual commitment to lend by the Bank to the Borrower. The line of credit is in the form of advances made from time to time by the Bank in its sole and absolute discretion to the Borrower. This note evidences the Borrower’s obligations to repay those advances. The aggregate outstanding principal amount of debt evidenced by this Note is the amount so reflected from time to time in the records of the Bank. Any Loan shall be in a minimum principal amount of $250,000 and in increments of $100,000. Each such request for a Loan shall be made in writing, in form and substance satisfactory to the Bank, by any officer of the Borrower or any person designated in writing by any such officer, all of which are hereby designated and authorized by the Borrower to request Loans and agree to the terms thereof (including without limitation the Applicable Interest Rate and Maturity Date with respect thereto). The Borrower shall give the Bank notice at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date hereof and the end of each Interest Period (as hereafter defined) specifying whether the Loan shall bear interest at the LIBO Rate and the Interest Period applicable thereto. Same Business Day’s notice by noon on the day of the proposed CB Floating Rate Loan is required. In the event the Borrower shall fail to provide such notice, the Loan shall be deemed to bear interest at the applicable CB Floating Rate. The principal amount of each Loan shall be prepaid on the earliest to occur of (i) DEMAND by the Bank, (ii) the Maturity Date applicable thereto, or (iii) the date upon which the entire unpaid balance hereof shall otherwise become due and payable.

Additional Costs

 

If any applicable domestic or foreign law, treaty, government rule or regulation now or later in effect (whether or not it now applies to the Bank) or the interpretation or administration thereof by a governmental authority charged with such interpretation or administration, or compliance by the Bank with any guideline, request or directive of such an authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall (a) affect the basis of taxation of payments to the Bank of any amounts payable by the Borrower under this Note or any other agreements or instruments executed in connection herewith (“Related Documents”) (other than taxes imposed on the overall net income of the Bank, any franchise taxes imposed on the Bank (in lieu of net income taxes) and any branch profits taxes imposed on the Bank by the jurisdiction or by any political subdivision or taxing authority of the jurisdiction in which the Bank is organized or has its principal office), or (b) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement (including, without limitation, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation deposit insurance premiums or assessments) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by the Bank, or (c) impose any other condition or expense with respect to this Note or the other Related Documents and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Bank of extending, maintaining or funding any Loan or to reduce the amount of any sum receivable by the Bank on any Loan, or (d) affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by the Bank (or any corporation controlling the Bank) and the Bank determines that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of the Bank's obligations under this Note or the other Related Documents and the increase has the effect of reducing the rate of return on the Bank's (or its controlling corporation's) capital as a consequence of the obligations under this Note or the other Related Documents to a level below that which the Bank (or its controlling corporation) could have achieved but for such circumstances (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity) by an amount deemed by the Bank to be material, then the Borrower shall pay to the Bank, from time to time, upon request by the Bank, additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Bank for the increased cost or reduced sum receivable. Whenever the Bank shall learn of circumstances described in this section which are likely to result in additional costs to the Borrower, the Bank shall give prompt written notice to the Borrower of the basis for and the estimated amount of any such anticipated additional costs. A statement as to the amount of the increased cost or reduced sum receivable, prepared in good faith and in reasonable detail by the Bank and submitted by the Bank to the Borrower, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error in computation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case apply to the provisions of this paragraph, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

 

Illegality

 

If any applicable domestic or foreign law, treaty, rule or regulation now or later in effect (whether or not it now applies to the Bank) or the interpretation or administration thereof by a governmental authority charged with such interpretation or administration, or compliance by the Bank with any guideline, request or directive of such an authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall make it unlawful or impossible for the Bank to maintain or fund the LIBOR Loans, then, upon notice to the Borrower by the Bank, the outstanding principal amount of the LIBOR Loans, together with accrued interest and any other amounts payable to the Bank under this Note or the other Related Documents on account of the LIBOR Loans shall be repaid (a) immediately upon the Bank's demand if such change or compliance with such requests, in the Bank's judgment, requires immediate repayment, or (b) at the expiration of the last Interest Period to expire before the effective date of any such change or request provided, however, that subject to the terms and conditions of this Note and the other Related Documents the Borrower shall be entitled to simultaneously replace the entire outstanding balance of any LIBOR Loan repaid in accordance with this section with a CB Floating Rate Loan in the same amount.

Indemnity

 

The Borrower shall indemnify the Bank against (i) any loss or expense which the Bank sustains or incurs as a consequence of the occurrence of any Event of Default and (ii) any loss or expense sustained or incurred including in connection with obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits from third parties as a consequence of the conversion of any Loan from one interest rate to another or the payment of any principal of any LIBOR Loan by the Borrower (in either case, pursuant to a default, change in legality or otherwise) on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period, or the failure by the Borrower to borrow or prepay, convert or continue any LIBOR Loan or part thereof once notice has been given.

 

Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so prepaid or converted, or not so borrowed, prepaid, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or conversion or of such failure to borrow, prepay, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the interest that would have commenced on the date of such failure) at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by the Bank) which would have accrued to the Bank on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the London interbank market. The Bank shall provide to the Borrower a statement, supported where applicable by documentary evidence, explaining the amount of any such loss or expense, which statement shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

Inability to Determine Interest Rate

 

If the Bank determines that (a) quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of LIBO Rate are not being provided for purposes of determining the interest rate on a LIBOR Loan as provided in this Note, or (b) the relevant interest rates referred to in the definition of Adjusted LIBO Rate do not accurately cover the cost to the Bank of making, funding or maintaining LIBOR Loans, then the Bank shall further at the Bank's option, give notice of such circumstances to the Borrower, whereupon (i) the obligation of the Bank to make LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until the Bank notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to the suspension no longer exists and (ii) the Borrower shall repay in full the then outstanding principal amount of each LIBOR Loan, together with accrued interest, on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to the LIBOR Loan, provided, however, that, subject to the terms and conditions of this Note and the other Related Documents, the Borrower shall be entitled to simultaneously replace the entire outstanding balance of any LIBOR Loan repaid in accordance with this section with a Loan bearing interest at the CB Floating Rate plus the Applicable Margin for CB Floating Rate Loans in the same amount. If the Bank determines on any day that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of Adjusted One Month LIBOR Rate are not being provided for purposes of determining the interest rate on any CB Floating Rate Loan on any day, then each CB Floating Rate Loan shall bear interest at the Prime Rate plus the Applicable Margin for CB Floating Rate Loans until the Bank determines that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of Adjusted One Month LIBOR Rate are being provided.

Events of Default

 

In the event of: (a) default in the prompt payment of principal, interest or any other amounts or compensation due under this Note; (b) any default in the performance of or compliance with any obligation, agreement or other provision of this Note by the Borrower (other than as provided in the immediately preceding clause (a)) and such default shall continue unremedied (or uncured) for 30 days; (c) any default in the performance of or compliance with any obligation, agreement or other provision of the Line Letter Agreement; (d) any “Default” under, as defined in that certain Pledge Agreement of even date herewith by and between the Borrower and the Bank; or (e) any “Default” under, and as defined in that certain Security Agreement of even date herewith by and between the Borrower and the Bank; then in any such event, in addition to all rights and remedies of the Bank under applicable law; and otherwise, all such rights and remedies cumulative, not exclusive and enforceable alternatively, successively and concurrently, the Bank may, at its option, declare any and all of the amounts owing under this Note to be due and payable, whereupon the maturity of the then unpaid balance hereof shall be accelerated and the same, together with all interest accrued hereon, shall forthwith become due and payable provided, however, that if a Bankruptcy Event (as defined herein) shall have occurred, all amounts owing under this Note shall be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by the Borrower. Further, acceptance of any payments shall not waive or affect any prior demand or acceleration of amounts due hereunder, and each such payment made shall be applied first to the payment of accrued interest, then to the aggregate unpaid principal or otherwise as determined by the Bank in its sole discretion.
