(BW) (STREAMLOGIC) (STLC) StreamLogic Agrees on Terms for Exchange of 6%
Convertible Subordinated Debentures
Business Editors
CHATSWORTH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 17, 1996--StreamLogic
Corporation (NASDAQ:STLC) today announced an agreement in principle with the
major holder of its $75 million 6% Convertible Subordinated Debentures (Loomis
Sayles & Co., L.P.) to exchange its debentures for a package of cash, common
stock and warrants to purchase common stock.
"We are extremely pleased with this agreement which would create a
virtually debt-free balance sheet," said J. Larry Smart, Chairman and CEO of
StreamLogic. "Our significantly improved financial flexibility would allow the
Company's management to focus on the market opportunities available in our core
video delivery and network data management businesses."
"On behalf of Loomis Sayles we feel that this agreement in principle
is a positive development for all parties and well positions the company for
future growth," said Skip Victor of Chanin and Company, financial advisors to
Loomis Sayles.
Pursuant to this agreement, StreamLogic plans to commence a tender
offer for the Debentures by mid-August. In the tender offer the company will
offer to exchange its Debentures for a package of cash, common stock, and
warrants to purchase common stock. For each $1,000 face amount of debentures
tendered the holders will receive (a) $233.33 in cash, (b) $520 in common stock,
and (c) warrants to purchase 40 shares of common stock at an initial exercise
price of 150% of market value as defined in the agreement. The exercise price
of the warrants is subject to downward adjustment in certain circumstances, and
contains customary antidilution adjustments. StreamLogic expects shareholder
approval will be required pursuant to Nasdaq rules and regulations.
If the holders of 100% of the outstanding debentures accept the
exchange, the Company will exchange the debentures for (a) $17.5 million in
cash, (b) issue between 5.2 and 9.8 million shares of common stock, and (c)
issue warrants to purchase approximately 3.0 million shares of common stock,
therefore, the transaction would increase the Company's net tangible assets by
more than $50 million. The company has been advised by Loomis Sayles that
certain institutional investors advised by Loomis Sayles hold in the aggregate
approximately 80% of the outstanding Debentures, and have agreed to exchange
their Debentures for the package of cash and securities offered by the Company
subject to certain conditions contained in the agreement in principle.
The obligations of the holders advised by Loomis Sayles to participate
in the tender offer is subject to various conditions
including satisfaction of all necessary regulatory requirements, a 95%
participation by bond holders, and the average price of StreamLogic's common
stock immediately prior to the expiration of the tender offer falling within a
range of $4.00 and $7.50 as defined in the agreement. As a result, there can be
no assurance that the tender offer will be consummated. Offers to exchange the
Debentures will be made only pursuant to the tender offer, and no offer is being
made at this time. The last reported sales price of the debentures was $550 per
$1,000 face value on June 6, 1996.
StreamLogic develops and markets leading edge video delivery and
client/server data management solutions. Current product offerings include the

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STREAMLOGIC ANNOUNCES AMENDED AGREEMENT AND NASDAQ APPEAL
CHATSWORTH, Calif., October 6, 1996 - StreamLogic Corporation (NASDAQ:STLC)
today announced an amended agreement with the advisor to the holders of
approximately 80% of its $75 million 6% Convertible Subordinated Debentures
(Loomis Sayles & Co., L.P.) pursuant to which Loomis Sayles agreed to advise
such holders to exchange their debentures for a package of cash, increasing rate
unsecured promissory notes, common stock and warrants to purchase common stock.
For each $1,000 face amount of debentures tendered the holders will receive (a)
$120 in cash, (b) $113.33 in increasing rate unsecured promissory notes, (c)
approximately 216.67 shares of common stock, and (d) warrants to purchase 40
shares of common stock at an initial exercise price of $3.60 per share of common
stock. The exercise price of the warrants remains subject to downward
adjustment in certain circumstances, and contains customary antidilution
adjustments. Shareholder approval will be required pursuant to Nasdaq rules and
regulations.
If the holders of 100% of the outstanding debentures accept the exchange,
the Company will exchange the Debentures for (a) $9 million in cash, (b) $8.5
million in increasing rate unsecured promissory notes due 1998, (c)
approximately 16.25 million shares of common stock, and (d) warrants to purchase
3 million shares of common stock, in which case the transaction would increase
the Company's net tangible assets by more than $50 million. Certain
institutional investors who hold in the aggregate approximately 80% of the
outstanding Debentures will be advised by Loomis Sayles to exchange their
Debentures for the package of cash, unsecured promissory notes and securities
offered by the Company.
The obligations of Loomis Sayles to advise the holders to participate in the
tender offer remains subject to various conditions including, among others,
satisfaction of all necessary regulatory requirements and a 95% participation by
debenture holders. In addition, such holders are not obligated to participate.
As a result, there can be no assurance that the tender offer will be
consummated. Offers to exchange the Debentures will be made only pursuant to the
tender offer, and no offer is being made at this time.
In addition, StreamLogic today announced that it will appeal a decision by
The Nasdaq Stock Market refusing to extend the period of time during which the
company's stock would continue to trade on the Nasdaq National Market pending
completion of the exchange. The company's stock will continue to trade on the
Nasdaq National Market during the appeal, which is expected to extend for a
number of weeks. There can be no assurances as to whether the appeal to Nasdaq
will be successful or as to when such determination will be made by Nasdaq.
As previously reported, the original terms of the proposed exchange offer
had been revised pursuant to an amendment to the company's agreement with Loomis
Sayles. However, certain objections by Nasdaq to the directorship provisions of
the amended agreement required a further amendment.
"StreamLogic is hopeful its appeal will be successful if we are able to
demonstrate to Nasdaq that we have resolved the directorship issues and that
prompt completion of the exchange offer is likely," said Lee Hilbert, Chief
Financial Officer of StreamLogic Corporation.
In another development, the company reported that its second quarter
revenues will be slightly under $13 million. "Shipments for the last week of
September were disappointing as the company experienced late component
deliveries and was unable to fulfill its entire backlog," Hilbert continued. "We
are optimistic about our third quarter prospects for StreamLogic products."
This news release includes forward-looking statements. For a detailed
discussion of important factors that could cause actual results of the company
to differ materially from those described herein, please refer to the company's
Current Report on Form 8-K as filed on August 15, 1996, with the Securities and
