CARLSBAD, Calif.—On Sept. 6, 2012, SPY Inc. and SPY's wholly-owned subsidiary, Spy Optic Inc. entered into two transactions to restructure their debt.

The second was a debt financing in the amount of $1 million with Harlingwood, LLC.

Under the agreement with Costa Brava, Spy has amended the Third Amended and Restated $10 million Promissory Note (Term Note) dated Aug. 2, 2012 and originally issued to Costa Brava on June 21, 2011, as well as an amendment to the Second Amended and Restated $7 million Promissory Note (Line of Credit Note) dated Aug. 2, 2012 and originally issued to Costa Brava on Dec. 20, 2010. As amended, Spy Optic is now obligated to repay up to $4 million of its indebtedness, at the election of Costa Brava, in the event that SPY or its subsidiaries complete certain debt or equity financings in an aggregate amount of $4 million or more between Sept. 6, 2012 and Dec. 31, 2012. Any amount so repaid will reduce dollar-for-dollar Costa Brava's Line of Credit commitment. The amendments to the Costa Brava Term Note and the Costa Brava Line of Credit Note that the paid in kind interest that accrues monthly under such promissory notes may not be paid in cash until the promissory notes mature on April 1, 2014. Spy Optic has previously elected to pay all interest in kind under both promissory notes since Jan. 1, 2012.

SPY and Costa Brava also entered into a registration rights agreement dated Sept. 6, 2012 stating that SPY is required to provide notice to Costa Brava of certain proposed public offerings of SPY's common stock and, if Costa Brava requests, register the shares of common stock into which the Costa Brava Term Note may be converted, subject to certain conditions and limitations described in the registration rights agreement.

The convertible note purchase agreement included representations and warranties by each of the SPY, Spy Optic and Harlingwood that are customary for an agreement for the sale of such securities. The agreement with Harlingwood accrues interest at the rate of 12 percent a year, which is payable in kind as an addition to the outstanding principal amount due on the last day of each calendar month in arrears. The note matures on April 1, 2014. Additionally, Spy Optic has agreed to pay an initial facility fee to Harlingwood of $10,000 by Sept. 17, 2012 and future facility fees on each anniversary of the note until the note matures equal to the lesser of $10,000 or 1 percent of the average daily outstanding principal amount due.
