Item 1.01.
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On November 24, 2014, Quad/Graphics, Inc. (the “Company”) and certain of its subsidiaries entered into the fourth amendment (the "Amendment") to the Note Agreement, dated September 1, 1995 (the "Note Agreement"), among the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company, and the purchasers named therein. The Amendment, among other things, amends the financial covenants, including deleting the minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and minimum Consolidated Net Worth requirements and adding a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio, a maximum Total Leverage Ratio and a maximum Senior Secured Leverage Ratio, which has the effect of aligning the financial covenants in the Note Agreement more closely with the financial covenants in the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of April 28, 2014.

The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment, which is attached as Exhibit 4.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and is incorporated herein.
