Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

As previously disclosed, Diebold Nixdorf, Incorporated (the “Company”) has been in discussions with certain of its funded debt creditors with respect to a long-term solution for the Company’s capital structure, leverage ratio and liquidity needs (the “Transaction Discussions”). As a result of the Transaction Discussions, on May 30, 2023, the Company and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company Parties”) entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement (the “Restructuring Support Agreement”) with certain holders (collectively, the “Consenting Creditors”) of: (i) obligations under the Credit Agreement, dated as of December 29, 2022 (the “Superpriority Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, Diebold Nixdorf Holding Germany GmbH, as borrower, certain of the Company Parties, as guarantors, the lenders party thereto, GLAS USA LLC, as administrative agent, and GLAS Americas LLC, as collateral agent, (ii) obligations under the Credit Agreement, dated as of December 29, 2022 (the “New Term Loan Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, as borrower, certain of the Company Parties, as guarantors, the lenders party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and GLAS Americas LLC, as collateral agent; (iii) the Company’s 9.375% senior secured notes due 2025 (the “2025 US Senior Notes”); (iv) Diebold Nixdorf Dutch Holding B.V.’s 9.000% senior secured notes due 2025 (the “2025 EUR Senior Notes” and, together with the 2025 US Senior Notes, the “2025 Senior Notes”); and (iv) the Company’s 8.50%/12.50% senior secured PIK toggle notes due 2026 (the “2L Notes”). The Consenting Creditors collectively hold the following approximate amounts of the Company’s outstanding secured debt obligations: (a) approximately 80% of the Company’s Superpriority Credit Agreement obligations; (b) approximately 79% of the Company’s New Term Loan Credit Agreement obligations; (c) approximately 78% of the Company’s 2025 Senior Notes obligations; and (d) approximately 58% of the Company’s 2L Notes obligations. Capitalized terms not defined have the meanings assigned to them in the Restructuring Support Agreement.

The Restructuring Support Agreement sets forth the agreed-upon terms among the Company and the Consenting Creditors for the effectuation of a deleveraging transaction through, among other things, (i) a pre-packaged chapter 11 plan of reorganization to be filed by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”) in connection with the anticipated commencement by the Debtors of voluntary cases under chapter 11 (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) of title 11 of the United States Code (the “U.S. Bankruptcy Code”) in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the “U.S. Bankruptcy Court”), (ii) a scheme of arrangement to be filed by the Dutch Issuer relating to certain of the Company’s subsidiaries (the “Dutch Scheme Companies”) in connection with the commencement by the Dutch Issuer of voluntary proceedings (the “Dutch Scheme Proceedings”) under the Dutch Act on Confirmation of Extrajudicial Plans (Wet homologatie onderhands akkoord) (the “Dutch Restructuring Law”) in the District Court of Amsterdam (the “Dutch Court”) and (iii) recognition of such Dutch scheme pursuant to proceedings to be commenced under chapter 15 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code by the Dutch Issuer.

Under the Restructuring Support Agreement, the Consenting Creditors have agreed, subject to certain terms and conditions, to support transactions (the “Restructuring Transactions”) that would result in a financial restructuring of the existing funded debt and existing equity interests of the Company Parties pursuant to plans to be filed in the Chapter 11 Cases (the “Chapter 11 Plan”) and the Dutch Scheme Proceedings (the “WHOA Plan”).

The Chapter 11 Plan and the WHOA Plan (together, the “Plans”) will be based on the restructuring term sheet attached to and incorporated into the Restructuring Support Agreement. Below is a summary of the treatment that the stakeholders of the Company would receive under the Chapter 11 Plan:

•

Holders of Other Secured Claims. Each holder of allowed Other Secured Claims would receive, at the Company’s option (with the reasonable consent of a requisite number of Consenting Creditors (the “Required Consenting Creditors”)): (a) payment in full in cash; (b) the collateral securing its secured claim; (c) reinstatement of its secured claim; or (d) such other treatment rendering its secured claim unimpaired in accordance with section 1124 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

•

Holders of Other Priority Claims. Each holder of allowed Other Priority Claims would receive, at the Company’s option (with the reasonable consent of the Required Consenting Creditors): (a) payment in full in cash; or (b) such other treatment rendering its other priority claim unimpaired in accordance with section 1124 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

•

Holders of ABL Facility Claims. On or before the effective date of the Plans (the “Effective Date”) or earlier if ordered by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court (including in the orders approving the DIP Facility (as defined below)), allowed ABL Facility Claims would be paid in full and any letters of credit will be cash collateralized.

•

Holders of Superpriority Term Loan Claims. On or before the Effective Date or earlier if ordered by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court (including in the orders approving the DIP Facility), allowed Superpriority Term Loan Claims would be paid in full.

•

Holders of First Lien Claims. On or as soon as practicable after the Effective Date, each holder of allowed First Lien Claims would receive its pro rata share of 98% of the reorganized Company’s new common equity interests (the “New Common Stock”) available for distribution to certain creditors under the Plans, which will be subject to dilution on account of (a) the issuance of the Additional New Common Stock as described below and (b) a new management incentive plan to be implemented in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases pursuant to which 6% of the number of shares of New Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Chapter 11 Plan on a fully diluted basis (the “MIP Shares”) will be reserved for issuance to management as determined by the restructured Company’s new board of directors.

•

Holders of Second Lien Notes Claims. On or as soon as practicable after the Effective Date, each holder of allowed Second Lien Notes Claims would receive its pro rata share of 2% of the New Common Stock available for distribution to creditors under the Plans, which will be subject to dilution on account of (a) the issuance of the Additional New Common Stock related to the Backstop Premiums as described below and (b) the MIP Shares.

•

Holders of 2024 Stub Unsecured Notes Claims. On or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date, each holder of an allowed claim under or with respect to the 2024 Senior Notes (the 2024 Stub Unsecured Notes Claims) would receive its pro rata share of an amount of cash that would provide such holder with the same percentage recovery on its allowed 2024 Stub Unsecured Notes Claim that a holder of an allowed Second Lien Notes Claim would receive in respect of its allowed Second Lien Notes Claim (as diluted on account of the Additional New Common Stock, as applicable) under the Chapter 11 Plan based upon the midpoint of the equity value of the New Common Stock as set forth in the disclosure statement filed in the Chapter 11 Cases.

•

Holders of General Unsecured Claims. On the Effective Date, each allowed General Unsecured Claim would be reinstated and paid in the ordinary course of business in accordance with the terms and conditions of the particular transaction or agreement giving rise to such allowed general unsecured claim, or otherwise provided such treatment to render it unimpaired.

•

Holders of Section 510(b) Claims. On the Effective Date, claims that could be asserted under section 510(b) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code would be extinguished, cancelled and discharged, and holders thereof would receive no distributions from the Debtors in respect of their claims.

•

DNI Equity Holders. Each holder of an equity interest in Diebold Nixdorf, Incorporated would have such interest extinguished, cancelled and discharged without any distribution.

In addition, intercompany equity interests and claims may be reinstated, distributed, contributed, set off, settled, canceled and released, or otherwise addressed at the option of the Debtors (with the consent of the Required Consenting Creditors, such consent not to be unreasonably delayed, withheld or conditioned). As a general matter, the distributions of consideration as summarized above and set forth in more detail in the Chapter 11 Plan and the WHOA Plan take into account claim holders’ rights to payment, in respect of their claims against all the Company Parties taken as a whole.

The WHOA Plan addresses only claims held by holders of First Lien Claims, 2023 Stub First Lien Claims, Second Lien Notes Claims and 2024 Stub Unsecured Notes Claims against the Dutch Scheme Companies. The WHOA Plan would include treatment in respect of holders of such claims consistent with the treatment set forth above, except that the 2023 Stub First Lien Term Loan Claims, which hold only unsecured claims against the Dutch Scheme Companies, would be classified in a separate class in the WHOA Plan and would receive no additional consideration under the WHOA Plan beyond what they would receive in the Chapter 11 Plan.

The WHOA Plan would not propose any compromise or impairment of any trade vendor or customer of the Dutch Scheme Companies or any claims between or among Company Parties.

The Restructuring Support Agreement also includes a term sheet (the “DIP Term Sheet”) that provides that the Debtors will seek approval of a $1.25 billion debtor-in-possession term loan credit facility (the “DIP Facility”) to be provided by certain of the Company’s existing first lien lenders on the terms set forth in the DIP Term Sheet and such other terms that are acceptable to the Debtors and a requisite number of lenders under the DIP Facility. The proceeds of the DIP Facility will be used to: (i) repay in full the term loan obligations, including a make-whole premium, under the Superpriority Credit Agreement; (ii) repay in full the ABL Facility and cash collateralize letters of credit thereunder; (iii) pay costs and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses related to the court-supervised restructuring proceedings; (iv) make certain “adequate protection payments”; and (v) fund the working capital needs and expenditures of the Company Parties and their non-debtor affiliates during the pendency of the court supervised restructuring proceedings.

As consideration for of their commitment with respect to the DIP Facility, certain lenders who have agreed to backstop the DIP Facility (the “DIP Backstop Lenders”) will receive (i) a commitment backstop premium equal to 13.5% of the New Common Stock, (ii) an upfront premium equal to 6.5% of the New Common Stock and (iii) an additional premium equal to equal to 7.0% of the New Common Stock (collectively, the “Backstop Premiums”). Additionally, holders of First Lien Claims that wish to become a lender under the DIP Facility and that execute a joinder to the Restructuring Support Agreement prior to 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on June 2, 2023 will be eligible to participate in the DIP Facility and receive a participation premium of their pro rata portion of 10% of the New Common Stock. The New Common Stock issuable as premiums described in this paragraph is referred to herein as Additional New Common Stock.

Pursuant to the Restructuring Support Agreement, the Company Parties must implement the Restructuring Transactions in accordance with the following milestones (unless extended or waived by the Required Consenting Creditors):

•

no later than 11:59 pm Eastern Time on May 31, 2023, the Company Parties must have commenced solicitation of the Chapter 11 Plan and the WHOA Plan;

In accordance with the Restructuring Support Agreement, the Company Parties agreed, among other things, to: (a) support and take all steps reasonably necessary and desirable to (i) consummate the Restructuring Transactions in accordance with the Restructuring Support Agreement, (ii) obtain the interim and final orders approving the DIP Facility, (iii) obtain the order confirming the Chapter 11 Plan and the Dutch Sanction Order and an order recognizing the Dutch Sanction Order in the chapter 15 proceedings and (iv) prosecute and defend any appeals relating to the order confirming the Chapter 11 Plan and the Dutch Sanction Order; (b) comply with the milestones described above; (c) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any and all required governmental and/or regulatory approvals for the Restructuring Transactions; (d) negotiate in good faith and, where applicable, execute and deliver certain required documents and agreements to effectuate and consummate the Restructuring Transactions as contemplated by the Restructuring Support Agreement; (e) actively oppose and object to the efforts of any person seeking to object to, delay, impede, or take any other action to interfere with the acceptance, implementation, or consummation of the Restructuring Transactions; (f) use commercially reasonable efforts to seek additional support for the Restructuring Transactions from other material stakeholders to the extent reasonably prudent; (g) operate their business in the ordinary course; (h) timely file a formal objection to any motion filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court by a third party seeking the entry of an order (i) modifying or terminating the U.S. Debtors’ exclusive right to file and/or solicit acceptances of a plan of reorganization, as applicable, (ii) directing the appointment of a trustee or examiner (with expanded powers beyond those set forth in sections 1106(a)(3) and (4) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code), (iii) converting any of the Chapter 11 Cases to cases under chapter 7 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, or (iv) dismissing any of the Chapter 11 Cases; and (i) at the request of the Required Consenting Creditors, appoint a chief restructuring officer, who shall be selected by the Required Consenting Creditors and be reasonably acceptable to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

The Consenting Creditors may terminate the Restructuring Support Agreement (and thereby their obligations to support the Plans) under certain circumstances, including the Company’s failure to meet the milestones described above (unless extended or waived).

A Company Party may terminate the Restructuring Support Agreement under certain circumstances, including the U.S. Bankruptcy Court’s failure to confirm the Chapter 11 Plan or dismissal of the Chapter 11 Cases or the Dutch Court’s failure to sanction the WHOA Plan. The Restructuring Support Agreement will be automatically terminated in certain circumstances, including if the Company’s board of directors determines, after consulting with counsel, that proceeding with any of the restructuring transactions contemplated by the Restructuring Support Agreement would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties or applicable law.

Although the Company intends to pursue the Restructuring Transactions in accordance with the terms set forth in the Restructuring Support Agreement, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in completing a restructuring or any other similar transaction on the terms set forth in the Restructuring Support Agreement, on different terms or at all. The Restructuring Support Agreement is subject to various terms and conditions set forth therein. Moreover, consummation of the Plans will be subject to numerous conditions, including approval from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court and the Dutch Court, as applicable.

The foregoing descriptions of the Restructuring Support Agreement and Restructuring Transactions are summaries only and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Restructuring Support Agreement, a copy of which is furnished as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated into this Item 1.01 by reference.

Item 7.01

Regulation FD Disclosure

The Company cautions that trading in its securities now and during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases and Dutch Scheme Proceedings is and will be highly speculative and poses substantial risks. Trading prices for these securities may bear little or no relationship to the actual recovery, if any, by the holders in the Chapter 11 Cases and Dutch Scheme Proceedings. The Company expects, based on the agreed upon terms in the Restructuring Support Agreement, that its stockholders will experience a complete loss on their investment.

Cleansing Materials

The Company is obligated under confidentiality arrangements it has entered into with certain of its lenders to inform the market of certain information shared in connection with the Transaction Discussions. Certain information relating to the Company (the “Cleansing Materials”) is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated into this Item 7.01 by reference.

The Cleansing Materials contain projections of the Company’s cash balances, revenue free cash flow and adjusted EBITDA, among other metrics (the “Projections”). The Company generally does not publicly disclose or make external projections such as the Projections. However, the Cleansing Materials were shared pursuant to the confidentiality agreements and remained subject to non-disclosure and confidentiality restrictions until the date hereof. The Projections were not prepared with a view toward public disclosure or general use, but rather were prepared for the internal use of the Company and were provided pursuant to the confidentiality agreements for the limited purpose of providing information in connection with the Company’s discussions about a potential transaction. The estimates and assumptions underlying the Projections and any other prospective financial information or projections contained in the Cleansing Materials are inherent to significant economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Projections or any other prospective financial information or projections contained in the Cleansing Materials will be realized. The Company’s actual results are likely to be different than its projected results, and such differences may be material.

Disclosure Statement

Pursuant to the Restructuring Support Agreement, the Company commenced the solicitation of votes on the Plans (the “Solicitation”) on May 30, 2023. In connection with the Solicitation, the Plans and a disclosure statement related thereto (the “Disclosure Statement”) were distributed to certain creditors of the Company that are entitled to vote under the Plan. This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor a solicitation of consents from any holders of securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities or solicitation of consents in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. Any solicitation or offer will only be made pursuant to the Disclosure Statement and only to such persons and in such jurisdictions as is permitted under applicable law.

The foregoing description is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Disclosure Statement, a copy of which is furnished as Exhibit 99.2 and is incorporated into this Item 7.01 by reference.

Press Release

In addition, on May 30, 2023, the Company issued a press release disclosing the events described in Item 1.01 above. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.3 and is incorporated into this Item 7.01 by reference.

The information furnished pursuant to this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, Exhibit 99.2 and Exhibit 99.3, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities under that Section and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Current Report on Form 8-K and the exhibits hereto contain statements that are not historical information and are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements give current expectations or forecasts of future events and are not guarantees of future performance. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, projections, statements regarding the Company’s expected future performance (including expected results of operations), future financial condition, anticipated operating results, strategy plans, future liquidity and financial position.

Statements can generally be identified as forward looking because they include words such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “will,” “estimates,” “potential,” “target,” “predict,” “project,” “seek,” and variations thereof or “could,” “should” or words of similar meaning. Statements that describe the Company’s future plans, objectives or goals are also forward-looking statements, which reflect the current views of the Company with respect to future events and are subject to assumptions, risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially. Although the Company believes that these forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions regarding, among other things, the economy, its knowledge of its business, and key performance indicators that impact the Company, these forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements. The factors that may affect the Company’s results include, among others, the participation by the Company’s lenders and noteholders in the Restructuring Transactions, the ability to negotiate and execute definitive documentation with respect to the Restructuring Transactions, the receipt of consents required to consummate the Restructuring Transactions, satisfaction of any conditions in any such documentation, the availability of alternative transactions, the impact of publicity surrounding negotiations related to the Restructuring Support Agreement and related matters, risks and uncertainties relating to the Chapter 11 Cases and Dutch Scheme Proceedings, including but not limited to, the Company’s ability to obtain U.S. Bankruptcy Court approval with respect to motions in the Chapter 11 Cases and Dutch Court approval with respect to motions in the Dutch Scheme Proceedings, the effects of the Chapter 11 Cases and the Dutch Scheme Proceedings on the Company and on the interests of various constituents, U.S. Bankruptcy Court rulings in the Chapter 11 Cases and the outcome of the Chapter 11 Cases in general, Dutch Court rulings in the Dutch Scheme Proceedings and the outcome of the Dutch Scheme Proceedings in general, the length of time the Company will operate under the Chapter 11 Cases and Dutch Scheme Proceedings, risks associated with any third-party motions in the Chapter 11 Cases and Dutch Scheme Proceedings, the potential adverse effects of the Chapter 11 Cases and Dutch Scheme Proceedings on the Company’s liquidity or results of operations and increased legal and other professional costs necessary to execute the Company’s reorganization; finalization and receipt of the DIP Facility, the conditions to which the Company’s DIP Facility is subject and the risk that these conditions may not be satisfied for various reasons, including for reasons outside of the Company’s control; whether the Company will emerge, in whole or in part, from Chapter 11 Cases and Dutch Scheme Proceedings as a going concern; the consequences of the acceleration of the Company’s debt obligations; the trading price and volatility of the Company’s common stock, and the ability of the Company to remain listed on the New York Stock Exchange, trading price and volatility of the Company’s indebtedness and other claims, and other factors included in the Company’s filings with the SEC, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and in other documents the Company files with the SEC.

Except to the extent required by applicable law or regulation, the Company undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect future events or circumstances or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. You should consider these factors carefully in evaluating forward-looking statements and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements.

Subject to the termination rights set forth in Section 13.02 and subject to the conditions described herein and in the DIP Term Sheet, each of the DIP Backstop Parties, severally and not jointly, agrees to backstop any portion of the DIP Facility not provided by the DIP Backstop Parties or the Joining DIP Commitment Parties in accordance with the foregoing sentence (or cause any of its designees, including any fronting institution, to backstop) in accordance with its DIP Backstop Commitment as set forth on Exhibit G attached hereto on the terms and conditions substantially as set forth in the DIP Term Sheet, with such changes as are acceptable to the Company Parties and the Required DIP Backstop Parties.

Upon the earlier of the DIP Closing Date and the termination or expiration of this Agreement in accordance with its terms prior to the closing of the DIP Credit Agreement, the commitment of the DIP Backstop Parties and Joining DIP Commitment Parties to provide their respective portions of the DIP Facility pursuant to this Section 6.05 shall terminate.

²	For the avoidance of doubt, purchases that are unsettled as of such date shall be considered to be beneficially held by the purchaser and not the seller for purposes of this Section 6.05 and the DIP Backstop Commitments set forth on Exhibit G shall be allocated on such basis.

(a) in the case of any Company Claims, the authorized transferee is either (1) a qualified institutional buyer as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act, (2) a non-U.S. person in an offshore transaction as defined under Regulation S under the Securities Act, (3) an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in the Rules), or (4) another Consenting Creditor; and

All remedies under this Agreement are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by Law.

16.11. Waiver. If the Restructuring Transactions are not consummated, or if this Agreement is terminated for any reason, the Parties fully reserve any and all of their rights. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 408 and any other applicable rules of evidence, this Agreement and all negotiations relating hereto shall not be admissible into evidence in any proceeding other than a proceeding to enforce its terms or the payment of damages to which a Party may be entitled under this Agreement.

16.12. Specific Performance. It is understood and agreed by the Parties that money damages would be an insufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by any Consenting Creditor, and each non-breaching Party shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief (without the posting of any bond and without proof of actual damages) as a remedy of any such breach, including an order of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court or other court of competent jurisdiction requiring any Consenting Creditor to comply promptly with any of its obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of the Parties will be liable for, and none of the Parties shall claim or seek to recover, any punitive, special, indirect or consequential damages for lost profits.

16.13. Several, Not Joint, Claims. Except where otherwise specified, the agreements, representations, warranties, and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement are, in all respects, several and not joint.

16.14. Severability and Construction.

All rights, powers, and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at Law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise of any right, power, or remedy thereof by any Party shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power, or remedy by such Party.

16.16. Capacities of Consenting Creditors. Each Consenting Creditor has entered into this Agreement on account of the Company Claims and Equity Interests listed on its signature page to this Agreement (directly or through discretionary accounts that it manages or advises) and, except where otherwise specified in this Agreement, shall take or refrain from taking all actions that it is obligated to take or refrain from taking under this Agreement with respect to all such Company Claims and Equity Interests.

16.17. Email Consents. Where a written consent, acceptance, approval, or waiver is required pursuant to or contemplated by this Agreement, pursuant to Section 4.02, Section 14, or otherwise, including a written approval by the Company Parties or the Required Consenting Creditors, such written consent, acceptance, approval, or waiver shall be deemed to have occurred if, by agreement between counsel to the Parties submitting and receiving such consent, acceptance, approval, or waiver, it is conveyed in writing (including electronic mail) between each such counsel without representations or warranties of any kind on behalf of such counsel.

16.18. Relationship Among Parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the duties and obligations of the Consenting Creditors under this Agreement shall be several, not joint. None of the Consenting Creditors shall have by virtue of this Agreement any fiduciary duty, any duty of trust or confidence in any form, or other duties or responsibilities to each other, any Consenting Creditor, any Company Party, or any of the Company Party’s respective creditors or other stakeholders, and there are no commitments among or between the Consenting Creditors, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. It is understood and agreed that any Consenting Creditor may trade in any debt or equity Securities of any Company Parties without the consent of the Company Parties or any Consenting Creditor, subject to compliance with Section 10 of this Agreement and applicable securities Laws. No prior history, pattern or practice of sharing confidence among or between any of the Consenting Creditors, DIP Backstop Parties and/or the Company Parties shall in any way affect or negate this understanding and agreement. The Parties acknowledge that this Agreement does not constitute an agreement, arrangement, or understanding with respect to acting together for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting, or disposing of any securities of any of the Company Parties and shall not be deemed, as a result of its entering into and performing its obligations under this Agreement, to constitute a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act or Rule 13d-5 promulgated thereunder. For the avoidance of doubt: (1) each Consenting Creditor is entering into this Agreement directly with the Company Parties and not with any other Consenting Creditor, (2) no other Consenting Creditor shall have any right to bring any action against any other Consenting Creditor with respect this Agreement (or any breach thereof), other than in accordance with this Agreement, and (3) no Consenting Creditor shall, nor shall any action taken by a Consenting Creditor pursuant to this Agreement, be deemed to be acting in concert or as any group with any other Consenting Creditor with respect to the obligations under this Agreement, nor shall this Agreement create a presumption that the Consenting Creditors are in any way acting as a group. All rights under this Agreement are separately granted to each Consenting Creditor by the Company Parties and vice versa, and the use of a single document is for the convenience of the Parties. Each Party’s decision to commit to enter into the transactions contemplated by this Agreement has been made independently and is based upon its own business judgment with the understanding that no Company Party has made any representations or warranties as to the success of the Restructuring Transactions or, ultimately, the confirmation of the Chapter 11 Plan or sanction of the WHOA Plan.

16.19. No Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against the named parties hereto (and then only to the extent of the specific obligations undertaken by such parties in this Agreement). All claims or Causes of Action (whether in contract, tort, equity, or any other theory) that may be based upon, arise out of, or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution, or performance of this Agreement, may be made only against the Entities that are expressly identified as parties hereto (and then only to the extent of the specific obligations undertaken by such parties herein). No past, present or future direct or indirect director, manager, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, equity holder, trustee, affiliate, controlling person, agent, attorney, or other representative of any party hereto (including any person negotiating or executing this Agreement on behalf of a party hereto), nor any past, present, or future direct or indirect director, manager, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, equity holder, trustee, affiliate, controlling person, agent, attorney, or other representative of any of the foregoing (other than any of the foregoing that is a party hereto) (any such Person, a “No Recourse Party”), shall have any liability with respect to this Agreement or with respect to any proceeding (whether in contract, tort, equity, or any other theory that seeks to “pierce the corporate veil” or impose liability of an Entity against its owners or affiliates or otherwise) that may arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution, or performance of this Agreement.

16.20. Identification of Consenting Creditors. Except as required by applicable Law, no Company Party or Ad Hoc Group Advisor shall divulge the amount of Company Claims held by any specific Consenting Creditor in any public manner without such Consenting Creditor’s prior written consent; provided, however, that (a) if such disclosure is required by Law, subpoena or other legal process or regulation, the disclosing Party shall afford the relevant Consenting Creditor a reasonable opportunity to review and comment before such disclosure and shall take all reasonable measures to limit such disclosure, (b) the foregoing shall not prohibit the public disclosure of the aggregate percentage or aggregate principal amount of Company Claims held by all Consenting Creditors collectively, or with respect to any particular ad hoc group, and (c) any Company Party may disclose information requested by a governmental regulatory authority (including U.S. and non-U.S. regulators) with jurisdiction over its operations to such authority without limitation or notice to any Party or other person or Entity. Any public filing or other disclosure of this Agreement which includes executed signature pages to this Agreement shall include such signature pages only in redacted form with respect to the holdings and identity of each Consenting Creditor.

16.21. Publicity. Unless otherwise required by Law, the Company Parties shall submit drafts to the Ad Hoc Group Advisors of any press releases and public documents that constitute disclosure of the existence or terms of this Agreement or any amendment to the terms of this Agreement prior to making any such disclosure, and shall afford them a reasonable opportunity under the circumstances to comment on such documents and disclosures and shall considering incorporating any such reasonable comments in good faith. Except as required by Law, no Party or its advisors shall (a) use the name of any Consenting Creditors in any public manner (including in any press release) with respect to this Agreement, the Restructuring Transactions, or any of the Definitive Documents or (b) disclose to any Entity (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any other Consenting Creditor), other than advisors to the Company Parties, the principal amount or percentage of any Company Claims/Interests held by any Consenting Creditors without such Consenting Creditor’s prior written consent (it being understood and agreed that each Consenting Creditor’s signature page to this Agreement shall be redacted to remove the name of such Consenting Creditor and the amount and/or percentage of Company Claims/Interests held by such Consenting Creditor to the extent this Agreement with signature pages is filed on the docket maintained in the Chapter 11 Cases or otherwise made publicly available); provided, however, that (x) if such disclosure is required by Law, and to the extent reasonably practicable and not otherwise prohibited by Law, the disclosing Party shall afford the relevant Consenting Creditor a reasonable opportunity to review and comment in advance of such disclosure and such Party shall take all reasonable measures to limit such disclosure and (y) the foregoing shall not prohibit the disclosure of the aggregate percentage or aggregate principal amount of Company Claims/Interests held by the Consenting Creditors of the same class, collectively.

No such additional indebtnedness may be incurred in connection with (or in furtherance of contemplation of) the solicitation of consents from the DIP Lenders. No transfers, dispositions, investments, or other transactions (including, without limitation, subsidiary designations) from any Loan Party shall be permitted that result in any person holding intellectual property material to the business of the Company and its subsidiaries as a whole unless such person is a DIP Obligor.

Events of Default:		The DIP Documents will contain events of default giving due regard to the First Lien Credit Agreement with modifications to reflect debtor in possession financings of this type that are acceptable to the Required DIP Backstop Parties, including, without limitation, any termination of the use of prepetition cash collateral pursuant to the DIP Orders, as applicable, dismissal or conversion of the Chapter 11 Cases without the consent of the Required DIP Lenders, adverse motions or U.S. Bankruptcy Court final orders, termination of the Interim Order or the Final Order, as applicable (except in the case of the Interim Order, as a result of the entry of the Final Order), allowance of any claims under Section 506(c) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code without the consent of the Required DIP Lenders, filing of an unacceptable Chapter 11 Plan or Disclosure Statement, termination of the Restructuring Support Agreement, and an unapproved sale of the Debtors’ assets.


Remedies:		The DIP Agent (acting at the direction of the Required DIP Lenders) and the DIP Lenders shall have customary remedies for debtor in possession financings of this type, including, without limitation, the right to realize on all DIP Collateral, including cash collateral. The automatic stay pursuant to U.S. Bankruptcy Code section 362 shall be terminated on the Maturity Date or upon the occurrence of any Event of Default which is not cured within five (5) Business Days after notice thereof, and the DIP Agent (at the direction of the Required DIP Lenders) shall be permitted to exercise all rights and remedies, including with respect to the DIP Collateral, set forth in the Interim Order or the Final Order, as applicable, and the DIP Documents, and as otherwise available at law without further order or application or motion to the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, and without restriction or restraint by any stay under U.S. Bankruptcy Code sections 362 or 105 or otherwise, subject, however, to the Carve-Out. In the event any party requests a hearing seeking to prevent the DIP Agent or the DIP Lenders from exercising any of their rights and remedies that arise after an Event of Default occurs and during the continuance thereof, the sole issue before the U.S. Bankruptcy Court at such hearing shall be whether an Event of Default has occurred and has not been cured or waived. No other issue or argument shall be relevant to any opposition to enforcement of the DIP Agent’s and the DIP Lenders’ rights.

Adequate Protection:		As adequate protection for the use of the collateral securing the obligations under the Prepetition Debt (the “Prepetition Collateral”): (i) [reserved] and (ii) the holders of First Lien Claims, and Second Lien Notes Claims shall, during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases, receive on account of any diminution of value in their Prepetition Claims, as applicable, (a) payments in cash of all reasonable and documented fees, costs and expenses of the Ad Hoc Group, (b) shall be granted additional and replacement liens on, except as set forth herein, all property of the Debtors’ estates that constitutes DIP Collateral (the “Adequate Protection Liens”) and a super-priority claims pursuant to section 507(b) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, in each case, of the same relative priority to the extent of the post-petition diminution in value of the respective Prepetition Collateral (as defined in the DIP Documents), subject, in each case, to the DIP Liens, DIP Claims and Carve-Out (each as defined in the DIP Documents) (the “Existing Adequate Protection Claims”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Prepetition Agents/Trustees shall be entitled to seek additional forms of adequate protection for any reason, including due to any extension of the Milestones or any failure to satisfy any of them.


Right to Credit Bid:		The DIP Agent shall have the right, at the instruction of the Required DIP Lenders, to credit bid (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) as part of any asset sale process or plan sponsorship process the full amount of the DIP Claims during any sale of Debtors’ assets (in whole or in part), including without limitation, sales occurring pursuant to section 363 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or included as part of any restructuring plan subject to confirmation under section 1129(b)(2)(A)(ii)-(iii) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, by a chapter 7 trustee under section 725 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise, without need for further court order authorizing the same.

Stipulations:		The DIP Orders shall contain stipulations as to, among other things, the amount, validity, enforceability, perfection and priority of the secured indebtedness under the Prepetition Debt and/or liens granted in favor of the secured parties under the Prepetition Debt, including with respect to any actions taken by the Agent/Trustees in respect of the foregoing prior to commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, subject to a customary challenge period.

Waivers:		Debtors will seek a waiver of the (i) “equities of the case” exception to section 552(b) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, (ii) the ability to surcharge the DIP Collateral and Prepetition Collateral, including under section 506(c) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, and (iii) the equitable doctrine of “marshaling” with respect to the DIP Collateral and Prepetition Collateral (a “Marshaling Waiver”), in each case, with respect to collateral securing the term loans under the Prepetition Debt.

Proof of Claim:		The DIP Orders will provide that the DIP Agent, the DIP Lenders, the Agent and the lenders under the Prepetition Debt will not be required to file a proof of claim in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases.

Indemnification and Expenses:		The Loan Parties will indemnify the DIP Agent, the DIP Backstop Parties, the DIP Lenders, their respective affiliates, successors and assigns and the officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, controlling persons and members of each of the foregoing (each, an “Indemnified Person”) and hold them harmless from and against all reasonable and documented costs, expenses (including reasonable and documented fees, disbursements and other charges of outside counsel) and liabilities of such Indemnified Person arising out of or relating to any claim or any litigation or other proceeding (regardless of whether such Indemnified Person is a party thereto and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by the Borrowers or any of their affiliates) that relates to the DIP Facility, the transactions contemplated thereby or in connection therewith; provided that, no Indemnified Person will be indemnified for any cost, expense or liability to the extent determined in the final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely from its gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. In addition, (a) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented fees, disbursements and other charges of outside counsel and financial advisors) of the DIP Agent, the DIP Backstop Parties, the Fronting Lender and the DIP Lenders in connection with the DIP Facility and the transactions contemplated thereby shall be paid by the Loan Parties from time to time, subject to the occurrence of the Closing Date, and (b) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented fees, disbursements and other charges of outside counsel and financial advisors) of the DIP Agent and the DIP Lenders for enforcement costs and documentary taxes associated with the DIP Facility and the transactions contemplated thereby will be paid by the Loan Parties. All reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses described above shall be payable by the Loan Parties, on a joint and several basis, whether accrued or incurred prior to, on, or after the Petition Date; provided, that the DIP Lenders and DIP Backstop Parties shall be reimbursed for only one set of lead bankruptcy counsel and local counsel in any jurisdiction required.



Assignments and Participations:		Usual and customary for debtor-in-possession financings of this type, including assignments of DIP Term Loans and/or DIP Term Commitments (as applicable) to persons that are not DIP Lenders or affiliated or related to a DIP Lender subject to the consent of the Company (not to be unreasonably withheld) unless a Default or Event of Default exists (such consent to be deemed given if no objection is provided within 10 business days).

Amendments:		Any amendment or modification to the DIP Facility shall be required to be approved by the Company, DIP Lenders holding a majority of the DIP Term Loans and DIP Term Commitments (the “Required DIP Lenders”), except for provisions customarily requiring approval by each affected DIP Lender or 100% of the DIP Lenders (including, without limitation, (i) forgiveness, reductions or decreases of the right to receive payment of premiums (including DIP Premiums after final approval thereof by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court and decreases in the Minimum Plan Equity Value Amount, the forgiveness, reduction or decrease or the modification of the form or manner or payment of which shall in any event require the consent of the person entitled thereto, whether or not such person is a DIP Lender), interest or principal or the form or manner of payment for any of the foregoing, (ii) increases of commitments of any affected DIP Lender, (iii) extensions of the term of the DIP Facility beyond 4 months, and (iv) any amendment that modifies the grace period in respect of payment defaults), or the DIP Agent, as applicable; provided, however, that the foregoing amendments and modifications shall not require the consent of any Defaulting Lenders (to be defined in the DIP Credit Agreement).


		Any amendment or other modification to the DIP Documents, and any waiver or consent to the DIP Documents which has the effect of releasing any collateral with a fair market value in excess of 25% of the fair market value of the collateral of all DIP Obligors on a consolidated basis prior to giving effect to such release or any guarantors with total assets or revenues in excess of 25% of the total assets or revenues, as applicable, of all DIP Obligors on a consolidated basis prior to giving effect to such release in connection with any financing transaction (including liability management transactions) shall require the consent of DIP Lenders holding no less than 90% of the principal amount of all DIP Term Loans unless each DIP Lender has been offered a bona fide opportunity to participate in such transaction on a pro rata basis and has declined, failed to respond within five (5) Business Days or not accepted the opportunity to participate. In addition, any waiver or consent to the DIP Documents which has the effect of releasing all or substantially all of the collateral and/or guarantees shall require the consent of all affected DIP Lenders. Any amendment or other modification to the DIP Documents, and any waiver or consent required or permitted by the DIP Documents, that has the effect of subordinating the DIP Term Loans in either payment priority or lien priority to any other indebtedness of the DIP Obligors shall require the consent of each affected DIP Lender unless such DIP Lender has been offered a bona fide opportunity to participate in the transaction on a pro rata basis and has declined, failed to respond within five (5) Business Days or not accepted the opportunity to participate.

Miscellaneous:		The DIP Term Loan Documents will include (i) standard yield protection provisions (including, without limitation, provisions relating to compliance with risk-based capital guidelines, increased costs and payments free and clear of withholding taxes (subject to customary qualifications)), (ii) waivers of consequential damages and jury trial, and (iii) customary agency, set-off and sharing language.

Execution Version

GUARANTOR LIMITED RELEASE AGREEMENT

THIS GUARANTOR LIMITED RELEASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of May 30, 2023, by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent for the Lenders (in such capacity “Administrative Agent”), and GLAS Americas LLC, as collateral agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”), with respect to the Foreign Guarantors listed on Schedule 1 hereto (the “German Guarantors”) party to that certain Foreign Guarantee Agreement, dated as of December 29, 2022 (as it may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Foreign Guarantee Agreement”), made by each of the Foreign Guarantors (such Foreign Guarantors other than the German Guarantors being referred to herein as the “Non-German Foreign Guarantors”) in favor of the Secured Parties. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Foreign Guarantee Agreement.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Foreign Guarantee Agreement was entered into in connection with that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of December 29, 2022 (as it may be amended, restated, supplemented or modified from time to time, and together with any agreement executed in replacement therefor or otherwise refinancing such credit agreement, the “Credit Agreement”), among Diebold Nixdorf Incorporated, an Ohio corporation (the “Company”), the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders;

WHEREAS, Section 8.2.1(c)(ii) of the Credit Agreement provides that in immediate contemplation, or following commencement, of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization proceedings with respect to the Company and its material Domestic Subsidiaries, the Guarantees provided by the German-domiciled Guarantors and the Liens on assets of such entities may be released with the consent of the Supermajority Lenders, solely in the event that (x) (i) the Supermajority Lenders, (ii) lenders holding in excess of 66 2/3% of the outstanding loans under the Superpriority Term Loans, as defined in the Credit Agreement (the “Supermajority Superpriority Lenders”), and (iii) holders holding in excess of 66 2/3% of the issued and outstanding 2025 Notes (the “Supermajority 2025 Notes Holders”) determine in good faith that the release of such Guarantees and Liens is necessary to avoid material value deterioration of the German-domiciled Guarantors (collectively, the “Release Consents”) and (y) such Guarantors are concurrently released from their guarantee obligations under the Superiority Term Loans and the 2025 Notes and the Liens on the assets of such entities securing the Superpriority Term Loans and the 2025 Notes are concurrently released (clauses (x) and (y) above referred to herein, collectively, as the “Release Conditions”);

WHEREAS, the Company entered into that certain Restructuring Support Agreement, dated as of May 30, 2023 (as it may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “RSA”), by and among the Company, certain of its Subsidiaries listed on the signature pages there to and the Consenting Creditors (as defined therein);

WHEREAS, pursuant to the RSA, the Company, any Company Party (as defined in the RSA) or any Affiliate (as defined in the RSA) thereof may file the Chapter 11 Cases (as defined in the RSA);

WHEREAS, pursuant to the RSA, (a) the Supermajority Lenders, the Supermajority Superpriority Lenders and the Supermajority 2025 Notes Holders have provided the Release Consents, (b) the German Guarantors will, concurrently with the effectiveness of this Agreement, be released from their guarantee obligations under the Superpriority Term Loans and the 2025 Notes, (c) the Liens on the assets of the German Guarantors securing the Obligations, the Superpriority Term Loans and the 2025 Notes will, concurrently with the effectiveness of this Agreement, be released and (d) the Supermajority Lenders irrevocably authorized and directed the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to enter into this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are entering into this Agreement at the direction of the Supermajority Lenders, the Supermajority Superpriority Lenders and the Supermajority 2025 Notes Holders to give effect to the release of the German Guarantors from the Foreign Guarantee Agreement immediately and automatically upon the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases on the Petition Date (each as defined in the RSA); it being understood and agreed that the effectiveness of this Agreement and the releases provided for herein are subject to, and conditioned upon, the occurrence of the Effective Date (as defined below);

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is acknowledged and accepted, the parties hereby agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

1. Recitals. Each German Guarantor acknowledges the accuracy of the Recitals hereto.

2. Release of German Guarantors. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, acting at the direction of the Supermajority Lenders, the Supermajority Superpriority Lenders and the Supermajority 2025 Notes Holders, without recourse or warranty, express or implied by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally release and discharge, effective upon the occurrence of the Effective Date (as defined below), the German Guarantors from the Foreign Guarantee Agreement, and any and all liabilities, undertakings and obligations created, evidenced, conferred or otherwise resulting thereunder (“Release of German Guarantors”); provided, however, this release shall not apply to the Non-German Foreign Guarantors and the Non-German Foreign Guarantors shall remain liable and obligated under the Foreign Guarantee Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Release of German Guarantors does not affect, impair or reduce the obligations of any other party under the Foreign Guarantee Agreement.

5. Further Assurances. The Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, shall at the reasonable written request of the Company in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent (and the direction of the Supermajority Lenders, the Supermajority Superpriority Lenders and the Supermajority 2025 Notes Holders (as applicable)), and at the Company’s sole cost and expense, execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take any other actions in each case as may reasonably be necessary in order to give effect to the Release of German Guarantors contained in this Agreement. The Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent (in each case, at the direction of the Supermajority Lenders, the Supermajority Superpriority Lenders and the Supermajority 2025 Notes Holders (as applicable)), as the case may be, hereby authorizes the German Guarantors or any designee of any such German Guarantor to, at any time on and after the Effective Date, prepare or file all such documents and other releases, discharges and related filings and to take all actions, in each case, as may reasonably be necessary to effectuate the Release of German Guarantors herein referred to. This Agreement is a Loan Document (as defined in the Credit Agreement).

THE TERMS SET FORTH IN SECTION 19 OF THE FOREIGN GUARANTY AGREEMENT (SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVERS; CONSENT TO SERVICE OF PROCESS) ARE HEREBY INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE, MUTATIS MUTANDIS.

The Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent are entering into this Agreement solely in their respective capacities as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents and at the direction of the Supermajority Lenders, the Supermajority Superpriority Lenders and the Supermajority 2025 Notes Holders. All rights, protections, indemnities and benefits granted to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in the Loan Documents are hereby reaffirmed with respect to their actions taken pursuant to this Agreement and incorporated as if fully set forth in this Agreement.
