Item 1.01.

Item 2.03.

Entry Into a Material Definitive Contract.

Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

 

On October 6, 2017, TSS, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries Innovative Power Systems, Inc., VTC, L.L.C., Vortech, L.L.C., Total Site Solutions AZ, LLC and Alletag Buildings, Inc. (together with the Company, collectively, the “Borrowers”) entered into a first amendment (the “First Amendment”) and related agreements with MHW SPV II, LLC (“MHW SPV”), MHW Partners, LP (“MHW Partners” and together with MHW SPV, the “Existing Lenders”), Andrew Berg (“Mr. Berg”) and Glen Ikeda (“Mr. Ikeda”, and collectively with Mr. Berg, the “New Lenders”; the New Lenders, MHW SPV and MHW Partners, collectively, the “Lender”). The First Amendment amends the amended and restated multiple advance term loan agreement among the Borrowers and the Existing Lenders dated as of July 19, 2017 (as amended by the First Amendment, the “Loan Agreement”) and the amended and restated security agreement by the Borrowers in favor of the Existing Lenders dated as of July 19, 2017 (as amended by the First Amendment, the “Security Agreement”).

 

The First Amendment adds the New Lenders as lenders under the Loan Agreement and the Security Agreement. In accordance with the terms of the First Amendment, Mr. Ikeda provided a loan to the Borrowers in the amount of $300,000 on October 6, 2017, and Mr. Berg provided a loan to the Borrowers in the amount of $100,000 on October 10, 2017. The Borrowers executed a promissory note (the “Ikeda Promissory Note”) to Mr. Ikeda to evidence the portion of the loan from Mr. Ikeda and the terms of repayment thereof, and a promissory note to Mr. Berg (the “Berg Promissory Note”, and collectively with the Ikeda Promissory Note, the “New Lender Notes”) to evidence the portion of the loan from Mr. Berg and the terms of repayment thereof (such loans, the “New Loans”, and collectively with the loans made by the Existing Lenders pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the “Loans”).

 

The Loans have a maturity date of July 19, 2022. The New Loans do not bear interest, and the Borrowers are permitted to make optional prepayments at any time without premium or penalty; provided, that if the Borrowers prepay the outstanding principal amount of a New Loan prior to the second anniversary of the date of the applicable New Lender Note, then the total amount of such prepayment will not exceed 95% of the total principal amount of such New Lender Note and any remaining principal amount under such New Lender Note shall be fully and finally cancelled, extinguished, forgiven and terminated without further action of any party.

 

The Loan Agreement and ancillary documents include customary affirmative covenants for secured transactions of this type, including compliance with laws, maintenance of insurance, maintenance of assets, timely payment of taxes and notice of adverse events. The Loan Agreement and ancillary documents include customary negative covenants, including limitations on liens on assets of the Borrowers.

 

The Loan Agreement and ancillary documents include customary events of default, including payment defaults, the making of false or misleading representations or warranties included in the Loan Agreement and ancillary documents, failure to perform or observe terms, covenants or agreements included in the Loan Agreement and ancillary documents, insolvency and bankruptcy defaults and dissolution and liquidation defaults.

 

The Company and Mr. Ikeda also entered into a warrant (the “Ikeda Warrant”) granting Mr. Ikeda the right to purchase up to 954,231 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Common Stock”). The Ikeda Warrant is exercisable until July 19, 2022, at an exercise price of $0.10 for the first 498,981 shares, $0.20 for the next 273,981 shares and $0.30 for the final 181,269 shares. The exercise price and number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of the Ikeda Warrant will be subject to adjustment in the event of any stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction.

 

The Company and Mr. Berg also entered into a warrant (the “Berg Warrant”, collectively with the Ikeda Warrant, the “Warrants”) granting Mr. Berg the right to purchase up to 318,077 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Common Stock”). The Berg Warrant is exercisable until July 19, 2022, at an exercise price of $0.10 for the first 166,327 shares, $0.20 for the next 91,327 shares and $0.30 for the final 60,423 shares. The exercise price and number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of the Berg Warrant will be subject to adjustment in the event of any stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction.
