Item 8.01 Other Events.
     On May 1, 2009, Diebold, Incorporated (the “Company”) reached an agreement in principle with the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to settle civil charges stemming from the staff’s pending investigation. In addition, the Company has been informed by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Ohio that it will not bring criminal charges against the Company for the transactions and accounting issues that are the subject of the SEC investigation.
     Under the terms of the agreement in principle with the staff of the SEC, the Company will neither admit nor deny civil securities fraud charges, will pay a penalty of $25.0 million and will agree to an injunction against committing or causing any violations or future violations of certain specified provisions of the federal securities laws. The agreement in principle with the staff of the SEC remains subject to the final approval of the SEC, and there can be no assurance that the SEC will accept the terms of the settlement negotiated with the staff.
     In connection with reaching the agreement in principle, the Company recorded a charge of $25.0 million in the first quarter of 2009.
