Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On May 13, 2022, PLAYSTUDIOS, Inc. (the “Company”), PLAYSTUDIOS US, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company (the “Borrower”), JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Silicon Valley Bank and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as lenders, entered into the Amendment No. 1 to the Credit Agreement (the “Amendment No. 1”), which amended the Credit Agreement dated as of June 24, 2021 by and among such parties (the “Credit Agreement”) to, among other things, exclude certain funds, up to $15,000,000, expended or to be expended by the Company in connection with the purchase of its public warrants and private placement warrants in connection with the offer to purchase and consent solicitation which commenced on April 1, 2022 and expired at midnight, Eastern Time, at the end of the day on May 13, 2022 (the “Offer”), or otherwise, from the definition of Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. As previously disclosed, the Borrower is obligated to comply with the following two financial maintenance covenants as of the end of each fiscal quarter: (i) the Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) must not to exceed 3.50:1.00 (subject to increase to 4.00:1.00 following consummation of certain material acquisitions) and (ii) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) must not be less than 1.25:1.00.
The foregoing description of the Amendment No. 1 does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Amendment No. 1, which is included as Exhibit 10.3 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
In connection with the Offer, the Company solicited consents (the “Consent Solicitation”) from holders of its public warrants and private placement warrants to amend (the “Warrant Amendment”) the Warrant Agreement, dated as of October 22, 2020, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Warrant Agreement”), which governs all of the public warrants and private placement warrants, to permit the Company to redeem each outstanding public warrant and private placement warrant for $0.90 in cash, without interest (the “Redemption Price”), which Redemption Price is 10% less than the purchase price to be received in connection with the Offer. The execution and delivery of the Letter of Transmittal and Consent in connection with the exchange of the public warrants and private placement warrants in connection with the Offer constituted the holder’s consent to the Warrant Amendment.
The Offer and Consent Solicitation expired midnight, Eastern Time, at the end of the day on May 13, 2022 (the “Expiration Date”), in accordance with its terms. Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, Inc., the depositary for the Offer, has indicated that as of the Expiration Date, (i) 1,792,463 outstanding public warrants, or approximately 25% of the outstanding public warrants were validly tendered in and not withdrawn from the Offer, and (ii) none of the outstanding private placement warrants were validly tendered in and not withdrawn from the Offer. Since the Company received the approval of approximately 25% of the outstanding public warrants to the Warrant Amendment, which is less than the 65% of the outstanding public warrants required to effect the Warrant Amendment as it relates to the public warrants, the Warrant Amendment was not approved as it relates to the public warrants. The Warrant Amendment was not approved by any holder of outstanding private placement warrants, and thus the Warrant Amendment was not approved as it relates to the private placement warrants.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
On May 17, 2022, the Company issued a press release announcing the results of the Offer and Consent Solicitation as described above.
A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
A copy of the Company’s press release relating to this announcement is being furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The information contained in Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto is being furnished and shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

PLAYSTUDIOS also solicited consents (the “Consent Solicitation”) to amend the Warrant Agreement, dated as of October 22, 2020, by and between PLAYSTUDIOS and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, which governs all of the Warrants (the “Warrant Agreement”), to permit PLAYSTUDIOS to redeem each outstanding Warrant for $0.90 in cash, without interest, which is 10% less than the price applicable to the Offer (such amendment, the “Warrant Amendment”). Pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agreement, the adoption of the Warrant Amendment required the consent of holders of at least 65% of the outstanding public warrants as it relates to the public warrants and the consent of holders of at least 65% of the outstanding private placement warrants as it relates to the private placement warrants.

Pursuant to the terms of the Offer, the Company expects to pay an aggregate of $1,792,463 in cash in exchange for such public warrants. Such payment will be made promptly.
