Item 1.01.     Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 7, 2019 (the “Seventh Amendment Effective Date”), Diebold Nixdorf, Incorporated (the “Company”), its borrowing subsidiaries party thereto, the guarantors party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, and the lenders party thereto, entered into a seventh amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Company’s credit agreement, dated as of November 23, 2015 (as amended, amended and restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”).

Among other things, the Amendment amends and extends the tenors of certain of the Term A Loans, Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolving Credit Loans maturing on December 23, 2020 (collectively, the “2020 Facilities”), to April 30, 2022, to be effected by an exchange of 2020 Term A Loans, 2020 Revolving Credit Commitments and 2020 Revolving Credit Loans for 2022 Term A Loans, 2022 Revolving Credit Commitments and 2022 Revolving Credit Loans, respectively, and/or the obtaining of new refinancing 2022 Term A Loan, 2022 Revolving Credit Commitments and 2022 Revolving Loans (collectively, “2022 Facilities”), as applicable. The vast majority of Term A loans due in December of 2020 was exchanged for 2022 Term A Loans while the remaining amounts were paid down with new capital raised. Upon giving effect thereto, the Company will have $343.8 million in 2022 Revolving Credit Commitments and $374.3 million in outstanding principal amount of 2022 Term A Loan, as well as $68.8 million in 2020 Revolving Credit Commitments.

The interest rates with respect to the 2022 Facilities are based on, at the Company’s option, adjusted LIBOR or an alternative base rate, in each case plus an applicable margin tied to the Company’s then applicable total net leverage ratio. Such applicable margins range from, for LIBOR-based 2022 Term A Loans, 1.25% to 4.75%, for LIBOR-based 2022 Revolving Loans, 1.25% to 4.25%, and for base-rate 2022 Term A Loans and 2022 Revolving Loans, 1.00% less than in the case of LIBOR-based loans. Using current interest rates and leverage ratios as well as the typical amounts drawn under the Revolving Loans, the amendment and extension is expected to increase the Company’s interest expense by approximately $10 million on an annual basis. Additionally, the Company’s 2019 outlook for cash interest expense remains unchanged at approximately $190 million.

Proceeds of the 2022 Facilities will be used to effectuate the above described exchange and extension and for general corporate purposes.
