Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On April 27, 2020, Bandwidth Inc. (“Bandwidth”) entered into a First Amendment Agreement (the “First Amendment Agreement”) to the Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of November 4, 2016, as amended and restated as of March 1, 2019 (as amended, the “Credit and Security Agreement”), with KeyBank National Association (“KeyBank”) and Pacific Western Bank (together with KeyBank, the “Lenders”).

The First Amendment Agreement clarifies that Bandwidth will not be required to provide a lien to the Lenders for the proposed acquisition of approximately 40 acres of vacant land located at the southwest quadrant of Reedy Creek Road and Edwards Mill Road in Raleigh, North Carolina (the “Land”). The First Amendment Agreement also amends certain covenant provisions to address and consent to the prior issuance by Bandwidth in February 2020 of $400 million aggregate principal amount of 0.25% convertible senior notes due 2026 (the “Convertible Notes”) and the entry into certain capped call transactions in connection with the offering of the Convertible Notes (the “Capped Calls”). The Lenders agreed that (a) any indebtedness of Bandwidth incurred pursuant to the Convertible Notes will be excluded from the calculation of the financial covenant, (b) the Convertible Notes will not constitute Bandwidth’s “Capital Stock” or other “Equity Interest,” payments of interest or principal, redemptions or required repurchases with respect to the Convertible Notes will not constitute a “Capital Distribution,” and (c) the Capped Calls and the payment of premiums with respect to the Capped Calls (i) will be treated as “Permitted Investments” of Bandwidth and (ii) will not constitute “Indebtedness” or “Restricted Payments” of Bandwidth. Bandwidth agreed that the Convertible Notes will at all times remain unsecured and mature no earlier than five years from the date of issuance. Additionally, the Lenders consented to remove the cash collateral requirement and to terminate the blocked account control agreement entered on February 25, 2020.

The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the First Amendment Agreement.
