The divestment comes at part of Share Purchase Agreement from February 20, 2018. Here is the full press release detailing of the divestment and other updates:

Sphere 3D Corp. Press Release:

SAN JOSE, Calif., Nov. 14, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Sphere 3D Corp. (ANY) (“Sphere 3D” or the “Company”) announced today that it has closed the previously announced transactions contemplated by that certain Share Purchase Agreement dated February 20, 2018 (the “Share Purchase Agreement”), as amended, by and among the Company, Overland Storage, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Overland”), and Silicon Valley Technology Partners, Inc., a corporation established by Eric Kelly, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who currently serves as the chief executive officer and chairman of the board of directors of such corporation (“Purchaser”).

Pursuant to the closing of the transactions contemplated under the Share Purchase Agreement (the “Closing”), as described in the press release issued by the Company on November 1, 2018, the Company sold to Purchaser all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Overland in consideration for the issuance to the Company of shares of preferred stock of Purchaser (the “SVTP Shares”) representing 19.9% of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Purchaser as of the Closing, and the release of the Company and all of its subsidiaries (other than Overland) from all the obligations and liabilities under the Company’s principal existing indebtedness and assumption thereof by Purchaser. Among other things, in connection with the Closing:

  • $6.5 million of the outstanding principal amount of that certain 8% Senior Secured Convertible Debenture, dated December 1, 2014, by and between the Company and FBC Holdings S.A.R.L (“FBC”), having an outstanding principal amount of $24.5 million (as amended, the “Debenture”) was converted into 6,500,000 non-voting preferred shares of the Company;
  • the Company and its subsidiaries were released as obligors and guarantors under the Debenture and under the Company’s Credit Agreement, dated April 6, 2016, as amended and as assigned to FBC, having an outstanding principal amount of $18.9 million; and
  • the Subordinated Promissory Note, dated December 11, 2017, by and between Overland and MF Ventures, LLC, having an outstanding principal amount of $2.2 million remained an obligation solely of Overland, and the Company has no obligations pursuant thereto.

The value of the liabilities of the Company that were released upon the Closing exceeded $45.0 million (the amount of the purchase price contemplated by the Purchase Agreement).

In connection with the consummation of the Share Purchase, Eric Kelly resigned as a director of the Company and as Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company and has been appointed chief executive officer and chairman of the board of directors of Overland.

In addition, the Company entered into a Secured Promissory Note (the “Secured Note”) issued by Overland in favor of the Company and HVE Inc, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, in the principal amount of $500,000. The proceeds from the Secured Note will be used to pay certain expenses on or after the Closing. The Secured Note matures on May 13, 2019 and accrues interest at a rate equal to 8% per annum. The Company granted a security interest to Overland in all the SVTP Shares held by the Company to secure the Company’s obligations under the Secured Note.

For additional information regarding the Closing and the transactions completed in connection therewith, reference is made to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated the date hereof and filed on EDGAR at www.sec.gov and on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
