Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

     On March 11, 2009, Citibank, N.A. and Globecomm Systems Inc. (the “Company”), entered into a one year $50 million committed, broad-based secured credit facility. The credit facility, which is a restatement of the Company’s previously uncommitted credit facility with Citibank, includes the following sub-limits: (1) $30 million available for standby letters of credit; (2) $20 million available for commercial letters of credit; (3) a line for up to two term loans, each having a term of no more than five years, in the aggregate amount of up to $25 million that can be used for acquisitions; and (4) $7.5 million available for revolving credit borrowings. Additionally, the Company has renewed its foreign exchange line in the amount of $10 million. The credit facility will be available until March 9, 2010.

     Obligations under the credit facility are secured by all the personal property of the Company and are guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries. The Company’s ability to borrow amounts under the credit facility is subject to customary documentation, including security documents, satisfaction of certain customary conditions precedent, and compliance with terms and conditions included in the credit documents. The various covenants in the credit facility are generally consistent with the types of covenants that were applicable under the Company’s existing credit facility. These covenants include, among other things, customary restrictions on the Company’s ability to incur indebtedness or grant liens, pay dividends or make stock repurchases, engage in businesses other than those engaged in on the effective date of the credit facility and similar or related businesses, enter into transactions with affiliates, amend its governing documents, and merge, consolidate, or dispose of assets. The Company is also required to comply with various ongoing financial covenants, including with respect to the Company’s leverage ratio, liquidity ratio, minimum cash balance, debt service ratio and minimum capital base. If the Company does not comply with the various financial and other covenants and requirements of the credit facility, Citibank, N.A. may, subject to various customary cure rights, require the immediate payment of all amounts outstanding under the credit facility.
