BOSTON, April 18, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SeaChange International, Inc. (OTC: SEAC) (“SeaChange” or the “Company”), a leading provider of video delivery, advertising, streaming platforms, and emerging Free Ad-Supported Streaming TV services (FAST) development, has entered into a second omnibus amendment (such amendment, “Amendment No. 2”) to the asset purchase agreement and software purchase agreement (the “Original Purchase Agreements”) previously announced on March 11, 2024, as amended by the omnibus amendment to the Original Purchase Agreements (“Amendment No. 1”) previously announced on April 10, 2024, with affiliates of Partner One, one of the fastest-growing software conglomerates in the world, in response to an acquisition proposal from a third party. Under Amendment No. 2, Partner One, through its affiliates, will acquire substantially all of SeaChange’s assets related to its product and services business (the “Second Amended Asset Sale”), and will assume certain liabilities, for an aggregate purchase price of $34,001,000 (the “New Purchase Price”), less SeaChange’s cash and cash equivalents at closing (the “Closing”). The New Purchase Price represents an increase of over $4 million compared to the original asset sale announced on March 11, 2024 (the “Original Asset Sale”), and $2 million compared to the amended asset sale announced on April 10, 2024 (the “First Amended Asset Sale”) and is the only material detail of the Second Amended Asset Sale that differs from the First Amended Asset Sale and the Original Asset Sale. The Company now expects the Second Amended Asset Sale will result in net proceeds to SeaChange of between $17-19 million upon Closing.
