Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 3, 2014, Global Cash Access Holdings, Inc. (“GCA”), together with its wholly-owned subsidiary Global Cash Access, Inc., entered into a third amendment to its Credit Agreement, dated March 1, 2011, among Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as administrative agent and the various lenders who are a party thereto (the “Amendment”).

As previously reported in its Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on September 8, 2014, GCA has entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated September 8, 2014, by and among GCA, Movie Merger Sub, Inc., a Texas corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of GCA, and Multimedia Games Holding Company, Inc., a Texas corporation (“Multimedia Games”), pursuant to which GCA will acquire the outstanding shares of Multimedia Games for $36.50 per share in cash, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”).  In addition, in connection with the Merger Agreement, GCA entered into a commitment letter, dated September 8, 2014 (the “Debt Commitment Letter”), with Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank of America”), Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (“Merrill Lynch”), Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch (“DBNY”), and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. (“DBSI” and together with Bank of America, Merrill Lynch, and DBNY, the “Commitment Parties”), pursuant to which the Commitment Parties have agreed to provide the financing necessary to fund the consideration to be paid pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement and refinance borrowings under GCA’s and Multimedia Games’ existing credit facilities (the “Debt Financing”).

The Amendment will facilitate the Debt Financing by, among other things, enabling GCA, through a newly formed subsidiary, to incur such Debt Financing into a special escrow account and to use such amounts, together with cash on hand, to pay the Merger Consideration and related fees and expenses of the transaction.

The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the text of the third amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 8.01. Other Events.

On October 3, 2014, GCA and Multimedia Games received written notice of early termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 with respect to GCA’s pending acquisition of Multimedia Games.
