| Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On March 25, 2025, Verint Systems Inc. (“Verint”) entered into the Fifth Amendment (“Fifth Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement, dated as of June 29, 2017 (as previously amended, the “Existing Credit Agreement” and as further amended by the Fifth Amendment, the “Amended Credit Agreement”), by and among Verint, the lenders from time to time party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and as collateral agent.
Pursuant to the Fifth Amendment, the maturity date of the revolving credit facility under the Existing Credit Agreement was extended to March 25, 2030, subject to certain conditions as described below, and the aggregate revolving credit commitments were increased from $300.0 million to $500.0 million. Effective March 25, 2025, borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement bear interest, at Verint’s option, at either: (i) an alternative base rate (“ABR”), plus the applicable margin therefor, or (ii) Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“Term SOFR”), plus the applicable margin therefor. The applicable margin is determined based on Verint’s leverage ratio and ranges from 0.50% to 1.25% for ABR borrowings and from 1.50% to 2.25% for Term SOFR borrowings. As provided in the Fifth Amendment, the revolving credit facility matures on March 25, 2030, provided that from and after January 7, 2026, the maturity date of the revolving credit facility will be accelerated if Verint does not satisfy a minimum level of liquidity equal to (x) the principal amount outstanding under Verint’s 0.25% convertible senior notes due April 15, 2026 (the “Convertible Notes”) plus (y) $100.0 million (taking into account undrawn capacity under the expanded revolving credit facility) at any time that more than $35.0 million in principal amount remains outstanding (and not cash collateralized) under the Convertible Notes.
Other than the changes described above, all other material provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement remain unchanged in all material respects.
Certain of the lenders party to the Amended Credit Agreement, and their respective affiliates, have performed, and may in the future perform for Verint and its subsidiaries, various commercial banking, investment banking, underwriting and other financial advisory services, for which they have received, or may receive, customary fees and expense reimbursements.
The foregoing description of the Fifth Amendment is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Fifth Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
