Item 1.01   Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
     On October 24, 2011, MoneyGram International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and MoneyGram Payment Systems Worldwide, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Worldwide”), entered into a consent agreement (the “Indenture Consent Agreement”) with certain affiliates of Goldman, Sachs & Co. who are beneficial holders of Worldwide’s 13.25% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2018 (the “Second Lien Notes”). Pursuant to the Indenture Consent Agreement, the parties thereto agreed to enter into a Fifth Supplemental Indenture (the “Fifth Supplemental Indenture”) to the Indenture, dated as of March 25, 2008, by and among Worldwide, the Company, the other guarantors party thereto and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee and collateral agent, governing the Second Lien Notes (the “Indenture”).
     The Fifth Supplemental Indenture will amend the definition of “Qualified Equity Offering” in the Indenture to refer to a primary or secondary public offering of equity of the Company or its direct or indirect parent in which Goldman, Sachs & Co. or any of its affiliates participates as a selling stockholder and any subsequent primary or secondary public offerings, in each case for aggregate cash proceeds of at least $50.0 million. The Fifth Supplemental Indenture will also amend the Indenture to permit Worldwide to make one or more optional redemptions of up to an aggregate of 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the originally issued Second Lien Notes, at a redemption price equal to 113.25% of the then outstanding principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, at any time prior to March 25, 2012 and after a Qualified Equity Offering; provided that any such redemption must be in an aggregate principal amount of no less than $50.0 million and may not exceed the aggregate cash proceeds (net of underwriting discounts and commissions) received in all Qualified Equity Offerings by the Company and/or any participating selling stockholders. The Fifth Supplemental Indenture will also amend the Indenture to, among other things (i) allow the Company and its subsidiaries increased flexibility in intercompany transactions, including intercompany loans, asset transfers and investments, (ii) increase the size of the general basket for investments from $25.0 million to $50.0 million, (iii) increase the aggregate amount of indebtedness defaults or final judgments that will constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture from $15.0 million to $25.0 million and (iv) expand the definition of Highly Rated Investments in the Indenture to provide increased flexibility with respect to permitted investments.
