Exhibit 10.1
AMENDMENT, WAIVER AND CONSENT
AMENDMENT, WAIVER AND CONSENT (this “Consent”), dated as of April 27, 2010, with respect to the Credit Agreement dated as of May 25, 2007 (as modified by that certain Amendment, Resignation, Waiver, Consent and Appointment Agreement dated as of June 4, 2009, the “Credit Agreement”) among VERINT SYSTEMS INC. (the “Borrower”), the LENDERS from time to time party thereto and CREDIT SUISSE AG, CAYMAN ISLANDS BRANCH (formerly known as Credit Suisse, Cayman Islands Branch), as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”).
WHEREAS, Sections 6.1(a) and 6.2(a), (b) and (d) of the Credit Agreement require the Borrower to furnish to the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) after the end of each fiscal year of the Borrower certain financial statements (and an audit report with respect thereto) and certain certificates and a management discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) with respect to such fiscal year (all such required financial statements and other deliverables, the “Annual Financial Deliverables”); and
WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the Lenders extend the due date for delivery of the Annual Financial Deliverables for the Borrower’s fiscal quarter and year ended January 31, 2010 to June 1, 2010; and
WHEREAS, the Borrower has further requested that Section 6.2(d) of the Credit Agreement, which requires the Borrower to deliver a quarterly MD&A to the Administrative Agent, be clarified such that the deadline for such delivery for the fourth fiscal quarter of any fiscal year be coterminous with the deadline for delivery of the Borrower’s financial statements for such fiscal year.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:
Section 1. Defined Terms. Unless otherwise specifically defined herein, each term used herein that is defined in the Credit Agreement has the meaning assigned to such term in the Credit Agreement.
Section 2. Limited Consent and Waiver. At the request of the Borrower, the Lenders hereby extend to June 1, 2010 the due date for delivery of the Annual Financial Deliverables with respect to the Borrower’s fiscal quarter and year ended January 31, 2010, and waive any Default and/or Event of Default otherwise resulting from the Borrower’s failure to deliver the same prior to such date. The consent and waiver granted pursuant to this Section 2 shall be limited precisely as written, and shall not extend to any other Default (including, for avoidance of doubt, any Default that may exist after June 1, 2010).

 

 


 

Section 3. Amendment. Section 6.2(d) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
“(d) within 45 days (or, in the case of the fourth fiscal quarter of any fiscal year, 90 days) after the end of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower commencing with the fiscal quarter ending July 31, 2008, a narrative discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for such fiscal quarter and for the period from the beginning of the then current fiscal year to the end of such fiscal quarter, as compared to the comparable periods of the previous year; and”.
Section 4. Representations of the Borrower. The Borrower represents and warrants that, immediately after giving effect to this Consent, (i) the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties set forth in Section 4 of the Credit Agreement and in each other Loan Document are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof, except in each case to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties were true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date and (ii) no Default has occurred and is continuing as of the date hereof.
Section 5 Effectiveness. This Consent shall become effective on the first date on which all of the following conditions have been satisfied: (a) this Consent shall have been executed by the Borrower and the Required Lenders, (b) the Administrative Agent shall have received from the Borrower a fee for the account of each Lender that has executed and delivered a signature page hereto to the Administrative Agent no later than 5 p.m. (New York time) on April 23, 2010 (or such later deadline, if any, as may be agreed to by the Borrower and indicated by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders for receipt of signatures) in an amount equal to ten basis points of the sum of such Lender’s outstanding principal amount of Term Loans and Revolving Credit Commitment (whether used or unused), and (c) any fees and expenses owing to the Administrative Agent (or its affiliates), as separately agreed to in writing by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or its affiliates) and invoiced to the Borrower in reasonable detail prior to the date hereof, shall have been paid in full.
Section 6. Governing Law. This Consent shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
Section 7. Counterparts. This Consent may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.
