Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 4, 2012, Global Cash Access, Inc. (“GCA”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Global Cash Access Holdings, Inc., entered into an amendment to the Contract Cash Solutions Agreement, dated as of November 12, 2010, with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A (“Wells Fargo”). The amendment increases the amount of funds that GCA may utilize from $400 million to $500 million to supply the currency needed for many of the automated teller machines (“ATMs”) operated by GCA. GCA also may request up to an additional $50 million in excess of the $500 million limit, not more than four times in any calendar year, for particular days during which GCA’s cash operating needs are greater than typical, such as New Year’s Eve; provided that Wells Fargo’s obligation to fulfill such request is on a best efforts basis. The amendment also extends the initial term of the agreement through November 30, 2014.  The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety to the terms and conditions of the amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto.
