Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
On January 2, 2020, GAIN Capital Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) delivered written notice to Barclays Bank PLC (“Barclays”) to terminate that certain Credit Agreement, dated August 2, 2017 (the “Credit Agreement”), among the Company as borrower, Barclays, as administrative agent, collateral agent, arranger and documentation agent, Sterling National Bank as joint bookrunner, and the other lenders party thereto.
The Credit Agreement provided for a U.S. $50,000,000 senior secured first lien revolving credit facility to be made available upon the terms and conditions set forth therein. While the Company is in compliance with the various covenants contained in the Credit Agreement, due to the terms of the financial covenants contained therein, it is not currently permitted to draw under the facility. In light of the foregoing, coupled with the Company’s lack of significant utilization of the facility and the upcoming expiration of the facility under its terms in August 2020, the Company has determined for prudent cost management reasons to terminate the facility at this time.
The notice was delivered pursuant to Section 2.09(a) of the Credit Agreement, and terminates the facility effective as of January 13, 2020. There are no amounts outstanding under the facility and the Company did not incur any material early termination penalties as a result of the termination.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
