Optical Cable Corporation Acquires Applied Optical Systems, Inc.

On October 31, 2009, Optical Cable Corporation (“OCC”) acquired Applied Optical Systems, Inc. (“AOS”), in a series of transactions that resulted in OCC owning 100% of the equity of AOS. First, OCC exercised a warrant issued by AOS in April 2005, as amended, to acquire 56% of the equity of AOS (on a fully diluted, as converted basis) for an exercise price of $1.5 million. The exercise price was paid by OCC by offsetting certain trade accounts receivable previously owed by AOS to OCC, and OCC received shares of convertible preferred stock of AOS. Second, OCC acquired an additional 10% of the equity of AOS (on a fully diluted, as converted basis) by purchasing common stock from the shareholders of AOS pursuant to an existing right, as amended, without additional consideration. And finally, OCC acquired the remaining 34% equity of AOS (on a fully diluted, as converted basis) in the form of common stock purchased from the AOS shareholders pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement. Under the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the shareholders of AOS received (i) $250,000 in cash, (ii) a right to an earnout based on performance relative to a derived EBITDA calculation during the period of fiscal years 2012 through 2016, and payable on January 31, 2017, in cash or shares of OCC common stock (at OCC’s sole option), and (iii) the cancelation of personal guaranties of the shareholders of AOS of pre-acquisition loans made by OCC to AOS. As of October 31, 2009, AOS continues to owe OCC approximately $5.3 million (unaudited), including principal and interest, pursuant to a pre-acquisition loan originated in April 2005, as subsequently amended, which is secured by all of the assets of AOS.

Optical Cable Corporation’s press release on November 5, 2009, regarding its acquisition of AOS is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
