Item 1.01.—Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Effective September 12, 2012, Schawk, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), dated as of January 27, 2012, among the Company, certain subsidiary borrowers of the Company, the financial institutions party thereto as lenders and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., on behalf of itself and the other lenders as agent. The Amendment amends the definition of “EBITDA” in the Credit Agreement to permit the Company, for purposes of calculating EBITDA for financial covenant compliance, to add back certain expenses associated with the Company’s enterprise resource planning system up to certain amounts as specified in the Amendment.
Concurrently with its entry into the Amendment, the Company entered into (i) the First Amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Note Purchase and Private Shelf Agreement, dated as of January 27, 2012, with Prudential Investment Management, Inc. and the noteholders and note purchasers named therein (the “Private Shelf Agreement”) and (ii) the Sixth Amendment (the “Sixth Amendment”) to the Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 23, 2003, as amended, with the noteholders party thereto (the “Note Purchase Agreement”). The First Amendment and the Sixth Amendment amend the respective definitions of “EBITDA” in the Private Shelf Agreement and the Note Purchase Agreement to conform to the amended EBITDA definition contained in the Amendment.
The foregoing summaries of the Amendment, the First Amendment and the Sixth Amendment do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Amendment, the First Amendment and the Sixth Amendment attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.
