Item 8.01 Other Events.

As previously disclosed, on June 8, 2020, Verint Systems Inc. (“Verint”) entered into the Second Amendment (“Second Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement, dated as of June 29, 2017 (as amended, the “Amended Credit Agreement”), by and among Verint, the lenders from time to time parties thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”). Pursuant to the Second Amendment, for purposes of the acceleration of the maturity of the term loan and revolving credit facility under the Amended Credit Agreement, Verint’s outstanding 1.50% convertible senior notes due June 1, 2021 (“Convertible Notes”) will not be deemed to be outstanding if such Convertible Notes are cash collateralized on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

On February 26, 2021, Verint deposited approximately $390 million of cash, representing the full principal amount of the Convertible Notes then outstanding as well as the final interest payment on the Convertible Notes due at maturity, into an escrow account maintained by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as escrow agent, in satisfaction of the cash collateralization provisions of the Amended Credit Agreement. Accordingly, the maturity dates of the term loan and revolving credit facility will not be accelerated to March 1, 2021 as a result of any Convertible Notes remaining outstanding on or after that date.
