Explanatory Note
On February 13, 2019, Greif, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original Form 8-K”). Under Item 1.01 of the Original Form 8-K, the Company reported that, among other things, on February 11, 2019, the Company, Greif Packaging LLC, Greif International Holding Ltd., Greif International Holding B.V., and Greif Luxembourg Holding S.à.r.l., as borrowers, had entered into an amended and restated senior secured credit agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of financial institutions, as lenders, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, Goldman Sachs Bank USA, and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, and their respective affiliates as joint lead arrangers and joint book managers, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as administrative agent for the lenders.
A copy of the New Credit Agreement was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Original Form 8-K. It was recently discovered that the filed copy of the New Credit Agreement inadvertently omitted text in Sections 2.07 and 7.15 and contained formatting errors. A complete and correct copy of the New Credit Agreement is filed with this Form 8-K/A as Exhibit 10.1 and replaces the previously filed copy of the New Agreement in its entirety.
