ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

(a)

On December 19, 2013, we entered into a Second Amendment to Credit Agreement and First Amendment to Subsidiary Guaranty (the “Amendment”), with some of our foreign subsidiaries as borrowers, some of our domestic subsidiaries as guarantors, a syndicate of lenders and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, swing line lender and an L/C issuer. The Amendment amends our Credit Agreement, dated as of October 19, 2011, as amended by the first amendment dated as of May 23, 2013 (the “Credit Agreement”) by and among the Company, some of our foreign subsidiaries as borrowers, a syndicate of lenders party thereto, Bank of America, N.A., BNP Paribas, and Citibank, N.A., as syndication agents, Mizuho Corporate Bank, Ltd, as documentation agent, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, BNP Paribas Securities Corp., and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as joint lead arrangers, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as joint book managers and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as administrative agent for the lenders and our Subsidiary Guaranty, dated as of October 19, 2011 (the “Subsidiary Guaranty”).

The Amendment amends the Credit Agreement by (a) extending the maturity date of the credit facility by two years to December 19, 2018, (b) increasing the sublimit for alternative currency revolving loans from $400.0 million to $500.0 million, (c) establishing a $500.0 million sublimit for financial letters of credit, (d) adding an additional level to the pricing grid which now provides (i) for the per annum applicable margin for Eurocurrency rate borrowings on all loans and financial letters of credit to range from 1.125% to 2.00%, (ii) that the Eurocurrency rate for performance and commercial letters of credit will range from 0.70% to 1.20%, and (iii) that fees payable for unused portions of the revolving line of credit will range from 0.125% to 0.30%, in each case based on the better of our debt ratings and leverage ratio in accordance with the pricing grid, and (e) deleting any requirement to provide any Lien to secure obligations under the Credit Agreement. In addition, the existing amortization schedule was revised so that quarterly principal payments, commencing with the last Business Day of our fiscal year ending closest to December 31, 2014, are required in aggregate annual amounts expressed as a percentage of the original principal amount of the term loans as follows:
