Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement

8.25% Senior Notes due 2021

On March 27, 2013, Navistar International Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) completed the sale (the “Offering”) of $300,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 8.25% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Notes”), pursuant to the terms of the underwriting agreement dated March 27, 2013 (the “Underwriting Agreement”) among the Company, Navistar, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Guarantor”), and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as representative of the several underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”). The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants. Under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company sold the Notes at a price equal to 99.75% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest, if any, from November 1, 2012 to the closing date, and has agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against certain liabilities. A copy of the Underwriting Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 1.1, respectively and is incorporated herein by reference.

The Notes were issued as additional notes pursuant to an indenture, dated October 28, 2009 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantor and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”), under which the Company previously issued $1 billion in aggregate principal amount of 8.25% senior notes due 2021 (the “Existing Senior Notes”), of which $900 million remained outstanding. The Notes will be treated together with the Existing Senior Notes as a single series of debt securities, and will have the same terms as and be fungible with the Existing Senior Notes. The Company used the net proceeds from the offering to repay a portion of its senior secured term loan facility in connection with its amendment of that facility. The Notes were offered at an original issue price of 101.25% plus accrued interest from November 1, 2012. The Indenture was previously filed as Exhibit 4.1 to Current Report on Form 8-K dated October 22, 2009 and filed October 28, 2009, Commission File Number
001-09618.

The Notes are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on
Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-187557) filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 27, 2013.
