Item 1.01  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On June 24, 2016, DTS, Inc. (the "Company") entered into the First Amendment to Credit Agreement (the "Amendment"), by and among the Company, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association ("Wells Fargo"), and the subsidiary guarantor and certain of the lenders referred to therein. The Amendment amends the Credit Agreement dated October 1, 2015, by and among the Company, Wells Fargo, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, and other lenders referred to therein (the "Credit Agreement"). The Credit Agreement was filed as Exhibit 10.1 of the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on October 7, 2015. Under the Credit Agreement, the Company has borrowed amounts under a term loan and revolving line of credit.

The Amendment was entered into in connection with the sale or licensing of certain intellectual property rights acquired from iBiquity Digital Corporation (the "iBiquity IP") to certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company (the "IP transaction"). The Company implemented the IP transaction to align with its current operating processes, to optimize the Company's global legal, operational and tax structure, and to maximize the use of available net operating loss carryforwards acquired from iBiquity.

The Amendment permits the IP transaction under the asset disposition and liens covenants of the Credit Agreement, and requires the Company to make prepayments of $20.0 million of the term loan, which is to be paid in installments of $10.0 million by July 15, 2016, $5.0 million by September 30, 2016 and $5.0 million by December 30, 2016 (the "Prepayments"). In addition, the scheduled principal installment payments under the Credit Agreement are unchanged by the Amendment. The Prepayments will be applied to the scheduled principal installments under the Credit Agreement in inverse order of maturity, beginning with the final principal balance due on October 1, 2020. The Company intends to make the Prepayments with cash and investments on hand and operating cash flows.

The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01 and the Credit Agreement.
