Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On April 8, 2025, Cineverse Corp. (the “Company”) entered into a Second Amended and Restated Loan, Guaranty and Security Agreement, by and between the Company, East West Bank (“EWB”) and the Guarantors named therein, which are certain subsidiaries of the Company (the “Loan Agreement”). The Loan Agreement amended and restated the prior amended and restated loan, guaranty and security agreement, which was entered into on September 15, 2022 (and amended from time to time, the “Prior Loan Agreement”). The Loan Agreement provides for a credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) consisting of a maximum of $12,500,000 in revolving loans at any one time outstanding, which principal amount may be increased to $15,000,000 at the Company’s request and at EWB’s discretion, and having a maturity date of April 8, 2028.
Advances under the Credit Facility will bear interest on the outstanding daily balance at one and twenty-five one-hundredths of one percent (1.25%) above the Prime Rate (as defined in the Loan Agreement). The proceeds of the Credit Facility will be used for the repayment at closing of expenses incurred in connection with the Prior Loan Agreement; payment of interest, legal fees and bank fees; investment, participation, acquisition and /or production of upcoming film/TV projects; and working capital needs and general corporate purposes. The Loan Agreement contains customary covenants, representation and warranties and events of default.
The Loan Agreement also requires certain of the Company’s existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”), to guarantee the obligations thereunder. Subject to certain customary exceptions, all such obligations are to be secured by a first priority perfected security interest in all of the collective assets of the Company, other than certain of the Company’s and the Guarantors’ digital cinema assets. In addition to the Loan Agreement, such security interests are evidenced by the Trademark Security Agreement dated as of April 8, 2025 by and among EWB, the Company and the Guarantors, and the Copyright Security Agreement dated as of April 8, 2025 by and among EWB, the Company and the Guarantors.
The foregoing descriptions of the Loan Agreement, the Trademark Security Agreement and the Copyright Security Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to such documents, copies of which are filed herewith as Exhibits 10.1, 4.1 and 4.2, respectively, and which are incorporated by reference herein.
On April 9, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing the Loan Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.

As of April 8, 2025
WHEREAS, Cineverse Corp., a Delaware corporation (f/k/a Cinedigm Corp.) (“Borrower”) and the Guarantors referred to in the Loan Agreement (as defined below) (each a “Grantor” and collectively the “Grantors”) now own or hold and may hereafter adopt, acquire or hold Trademarks (defined as all of the following: all trademarks, service marks, trade names, corporate names, company names, business names, fictitious business names, trade dress, logos, other source of business identifiers and general intangibles of like nature, now existing or hereafter adopted or acquired, all registrations and recordings thereof or similar property rights, and all applications filed in connection therewith, including, without limitation, registrations, recordings and applications in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or in any similar office or agency of the United States, or any state thereof or any other country or any political subdivision of any thereof, and all reissues, extensions or renewals thereof), including, without limitation, the Trademarks listed on Schedule A annexed hereto, as such Schedule may be amended from time to time by the addition of Trademarks subsequently registered or otherwise adopted, acquired or held by any Grantor;
WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Second Amended and Restated Loan, Guaranty and Security Agreement dated as of even date herewith (as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, renewed, restated or replaced from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”; capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Loan Agreement), among Borrower, the Guarantors referred to therein and East West Bank (“Bank”), Bank has agreed to make Credit Extensions and extend other financial accommodations to Borrower;
WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, each Grantor has granted to Bank a security interest in and to all personal property of such Grantor, including, without limitation, all right, title and interest of the Grantors in, to and under all of such Grantor’s Trademarks and Trademark licenses (including, without limitation, those Trademark licenses listed on Schedule A hereto), whether now owned, presently existing or hereafter arising, adopted or acquired and whether or not in possession of such Grantor, together with the goodwill of the business connected with, and symbolized by, the Trademarks and all products and proceeds thereof and all income therefrom, including, without limitation, any and all causes of action that exist now or may exist in the future by reason of infringement or dilution thereof or injury to the associated goodwill, to secure the payment and performance of the Obligations; and
WHEREAS, Bank and the Grantors by this instrument seek to confirm and make a record of the grant of a security interest in the Trademarks and the goodwill associated therewith.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Grantor does hereby grant to Bank, as security for the Obligations, a continuing security interest in all of such Grantor’s right, title and interest in, to and under the following (all of the following items (i) through (iii) or types of property being
collectively referred to herein as the “Trademark Collateral”), whether now owned, presently existing or hereafter arising, adopted or acquired and whether or not in possession of such Grantor:
Each Grantor hereby agrees to ensure that all registrations for Trademarks which remain in use by the relevant Grantor are kept in force for the duration of this Trademark Security Agreement, and to deliver updated copies of Schedule A and Schedule B to Bank at the end of any quarter in which such Grantor registers or otherwise adopts or acquires any Trademark not listed on Schedule A hereto or enters into any Trademark license not listed on Schedule B hereto, and to duly and promptly execute and deliver, or have duly and promptly executed and delivered, at the cost and expense of such Grantor, such further instruments or documents (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Bank), and promptly perform, or cause to be promptly performed, upon the request of Bank, any and all acts, in all cases, as may be necessary, proper or advisable from time to time, in the reasonable judgment of Bank, to carry out the provisions and purposes of the Loan Agreement and this Trademark Security Agreement, and to provide, perfect and preserve the liens of Bank granted pursuant to the Loan Agreement, this Trademark Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents in the Trademark Collateral or any portion thereof.
Each Grantor agrees that if any Person shall do or perform any act(s) that Bank reasonably believes constitutes an infringement of any Trademark owned or held by such Grantor, or violates or infringes any right of any Grantor or Bank in the Trademark Collateral, or if any Person shall do or perform any act(s) that Bank reasonably believes constitutes an unauthorized or unlawful use of the Trademark Collateral, then and in any such event, Bank may take such reasonable steps and institute such reasonable suits or proceedings as Bank may reasonably deem advisable or necessary to prevent such act(s) and/or conduct and to secure damages and other relief by reason thereof, and to generally take such steps as may be advisable or necessary or proper for the full protection of the rights of the parties in the Trademark Collateral if either (a) the applicable Grantor fails to take any action necessary to protect the rights of such Grantor or Bank in the Trademark Collateral within 30 days following its receipt of a written notice from Bank, or (b) there exists an ongoing Event of Default (in which event Bank may take such steps and institute such suits or proceedings without notice). Bank may take such steps or institute such suits or proceedings in its own name or in the name of any of the Grantors or in the names of the parties jointly. Bank hereby agrees to promptly give the Grantors notice of any steps taken, or any suits or proceedings instituted, by Bank pursuant to this paragraph and each of the Grantors agrees to

assist Bank with any steps taken, or any suits or proceedings instituted by Bank pursuant to this paragraph at the Grantors’ sole expense.
This security interest is granted in conjunction with the security interests granted to Bank pursuant to the Loan Agreement. Each of the Grantors and Bank do hereby further acknowledge and affirm that the rights and remedies of Bank with respect to the security interest made and granted hereby are subject to, and more fully set forth in, the Loan Agreement, the terms and provisions of which are incorporated by reference herein as if fully set forth herein.
This Trademark Security Agreement is made for collateral purposes only. At such time as Bank’s commitment to make Credit Extensions under the Loan Agreement have terminated and all Obligations have been paid in full and performed, Bank shall promptly execute and deliver to the Grantors, at the Grantors’ request and expense, without representation, warranty or recourse, all releases and reassignments, termination statements and other instruments as may be reasonably necessary or advisable to terminate the security interest of Bank in the Trademark Collateral, subject to any disposition thereof that may have been made by Bank pursuant to the terms hereof or of the Loan Agreement.
So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and subject always to the various provisions of the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, the Grantors may use, license and exploit the Trademark Collateral in any lawful manner permitted under the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
THIS TRADEMARK SECURITY AGREEMENT, AND ALL DISPUTES AND OTHER MATTERS RELATING HERETO OR ARISING HEREFROM (WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT LAW, TORT LAW OR OTHERWISE), SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.
This Trademark Security Agreement, and any modifications or amendments hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall constitute an original for all purposes, but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Trademark Security Agreement by facsimile or transmitted electronically in a Tagged Image Format File (“TIFF”), Portable Document Format (“PDF”) or other electronic format sent by electronic mail shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Trademark Security Agreement. This Trademark Security Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by each party hereto. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Trademark Security Agreement by facsimile or by email shall also deliver a manually executed counterpart of this Trademark Security Agreement, but failure to do so shall not affect the validity, enforceability or binding effect of this Trademark Security Agreement, and the parties hereby waive any right they may have to object to said treatment.
All notices and other communications provided under this Trademark Security Agreement shall be delivered in such form, manner and address as provided in Section 13 of the Loan Agreement.

Any provision of this Trademark Security Agreement which is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
No amendment, modification, rescission, waiver or release of any provision of this Trademark Security Agreement, and no consent to any departure therefrom shall in any event be effective unless signed by Bank (whose signature shall be delivered only in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Loan Agreement) and Grantor. Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it is given.
This Trademark Security Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns (as determined pursuant to the Loan Agreement), but neither this Trademark Security Agreement nor any of the rights or interests hereunder shall be assigned by Grantor (including its successors and permitted assigns) without the prior written consent of Bank (which shall be provided only in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Loan Agreement), and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be null and void.
If any conflict or inconsistency exists between this Trademark Security Agreement and the Loan Agreement, the Loan Agreement shall govern.

WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Second Amended and Restated Loan, Guaranty and Security Agreement dated as of even date herewith (as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, renewed, restated or replaced from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”; capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Loan Agreement), among Borrower, the Guarantors referred to therein and East West Bank (“Bank”), Bank has agreed to make Credit Extensions and extend other financial accommodations to Borrower; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, each Grantor has granted to Bank a security interest in all of such Grantor’s personal property, tangible and intangible, wherever located or situated and whether now owned, currently existing or hereafter acquired or created as further provided in the Loan Agreement and herein.
NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each Grantor does hereby grant to Bank, as security for the payment and performance of the Obligations, a security interest in all personal property of such Grantor whether presently existing or hereafter created or acquired, and wherever located, including but limited to the following (collectively, the “Collateral”):

Bank may take such steps or institute such suits or proceedings in its own name or in the name of any of the Grantors or in the names of the parties jointly. Bank hereby agrees to give the Grantors notice of any steps taken or any suits or proceedings instituted by Bank pursuant to this paragraph and the Grantors agree to assist Bank with any steps taken, or any suits or proceedings instituted by Bank pursuant to this paragraph at the Grantors’ sole expense.
The security interest granted to Bank hereunder is granted in conjunction with the security interests granted to Bank pursuant to the Loan Agreement. Each Grantor and Bank hereby further acknowledges and affirms that the rights and remedies of Bank with respect to the security interest made and granted hereby are subject to, and more fully set forth in, the Loan Agreement and are subject to the limitations set forth in the Loan Agreement, the terms and provisions of which are incorporated by reference herein as if fully set forth herein.
This Copyright Security Agreement is made for collateral purposes only. At such time as Bank’s commitment to make Credit Extensions under the Loan Agreement have terminated and all Obligations have been paid in full and performed, Bank shall execute and deliver to the applicable Grantors, at the Grantors’ request and sole expense without representation, warranty or recourse, all releases and reassignments, termination statements and other instruments as may be necessary or proper to terminate the security interest of Bank in the Collateral, subject to any disposition thereof which may have been made by Bank pursuant to the terms hereof or of the Loan Agreement.
THIS COPYRIGHT SECURITY AGREEMENT, AND ALL DISPUTES AND OTHER MATTERS RELATING HERETO OR ARISING HEREFROM (WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT LAW, TORT LAW OR OTHERWISE), SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.

Any provision of this Copyright Security Agreement which is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
No amendment, modification, rescission, waiver or release of any provision of this Copyright Security Agreement, and no consent to any departure therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless signed by Bank (whose signature shall be delivered only in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Loan Agreement) and the Grantors.

California law governs the Loan Documents without regard to principles of conflicts of law. Borrower and Bank each submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts in Los Angeles County, California; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to operate to preclude Bank from bringing suit or taking other legal action in any other jurisdiction to realize on the Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of Bank. Each party expressly submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any action or suit commenced in any such court, hereby waives any objection that it may have based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue, or forum non conveniens and hereby consents to the granting of such legal or equitable relief as is deemed appropriate by such court. Each party hereby waives personal service of the summons, complaints, and other process issued in such action or suit and agrees that service of such summons, complaints, and other process may be made by registered or certified mail addressed to it at the address set forth in, or subsequently provided by it in accordance with, Section 13 of this Agreement and that service so made shall be deemed completed upon the earlier to occur of such party’s actual receipt thereof or five (5) Business Days after deposit in the U.S. mails, proper first class postage prepaid.
IF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BORROWER AND BANK EACH WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS. THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR BOTH PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL.
WITHOUT INTENDING IN ANY WAY TO LIMIT THE PARTIES’ AGREEMENT TO WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IF PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, if the above waiver of the right to a trial by jury is not enforceable, the parties hereto agree that any and all disputes or controversies of any nature between them arising at any time shall be decided by a reference to a private judge, who is a former or retired judge of any California Federal or State Court, mutually selected by the parties (or, if they cannot agree, by the Presiding Judge of the Santa Clara County, California Superior Court) appointed in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638, sitting without a jury, in Santa Clara County, California; and the parties hereby submit to the jurisdiction of such court. The reference proceedings shall be conducted pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure §§ 638 through 645.1, inclusive. The private judge shall have the power, among others, to grant provisional relief, including without limitation, entering temporary restraining orders, issuing preliminary and permanent injunctions and appointing receivers. All such proceedings shall be closed to the public and confidential and all records relating thereto shall be permanently sealed. If during the course
|
-21- |
|
|
|
|
of any dispute, a party desires to seek provisional relief, but a judge has not been appointed at that point pursuant to the judicial reference procedures, then such party may apply to the Santa Clara County, California Superior Court for such relief. The proceeding before the private judge shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of evidence applicable to judicial proceedings. The parties shall be entitled to discovery which shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of discovery applicable to judicial proceedings. The private judge shall oversee discovery and may enforce all discovery rules and orders applicable to judicial proceedings in the same manner as a trial court judge. The parties agree that the selected or appointed private judge shall have the power to decide all issues in the action or proceeding, whether of fact or of law, and shall report a statement of decision thereon pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure § 644(a). Either party shall have the right to object to the decision of the private judge and to appeal as provided for in the California Code of Civil Procedure. Nothing in this paragraph shall limit the right of any party at any time to exercise self-help remedies, foreclose against collateral, or obtain provisional remedies. The private judge shall also determine all issues relating to the applicability, interpretation, and enforceability of this paragraph.
