Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 22, 2016, Teradata Corporation (“Teradata”) entered into Second Amendments (together, the “Second Amendments”) to its Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of March 25, 2015 with Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Syndication Agent, Citibank, N.A., HSBC Bank USA, N.A., the Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd. and U.S. Bank National Association, as Co-Documentation Agents, and the other lenders party thereto (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”) and to its Term Loan Agreement dated as of March 25, 2015 with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Bank of America, N.A., as Syndication Agent, Citibank, N.A., HSBC Bank USA, N.A., The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd. and U.S. Bank National Association, as Co-Documentation Agents, and the other lenders party thereto (the “Term Loan Agreement”). The Second Amendments amend the definition of the term “Change in Control” in the Revolving Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Agreement in certain respects. A Change in Control, as defined, constitutes an event of default under both agreements.

On January 22, 2016, Teradata also entered into Third Amendments to the Revolving Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Agreement (together, the “Third Amendments”). The Third Amendments modify certain covenants made by Teradata in the Revolving Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Agreement to expressly permit the sale or other disposition by Teradata of its marketing applications business so long as such sale or other disposition is consummated on or before January 31, 2017.

The foregoing description of the Second Amendments and the Third Amendments is not complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Second Amendments and the Third Amendments, which are attached as Exhibits 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, and 1.4, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On January 26, 2016, Mr. Edward P. (Pete) Boykin, a director of Teradata, notified Teradata that he will retire from the Teradata Board of Directors at the 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and, accordingly, he will not be standing for reelection by the stockholders at the meeting and will resign from the Board of Directors effective at the end of his current term, which expires at the annual meeting. He also informed Teradata that his decision was not because of any disagreement with Teradata on any matter relating to Teradata’s operations, policies or practices. Mr. Boykin has served as a director of Teradata since its formation.

On January 26, 2016, the Teradata Board of Directors also reduced the number of directors on the board and in the class of directors to be elected at the 2016 Annual Stockholders’ Meeting (Class III) by one, effective with the expiration of Mr. Boykin’s current term at the 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
