Item 1.01.   Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Amendment No. 1 to Forbearance Agreement

On June 30, 2014, Anchor Hocking, LLC (“Anchor”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of EveryWare Global, Inc. (the “Company”), Oneida Ltd. (“Oneida,” and, together with Anchor, the “Borrowers”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and Universal Tabletop, Inc. (“Holdings”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries party thereto (together with Holdings and the Borrowers, the “Loan Parties”), entered into Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to Forbearance Agreement (the “Forbearance Agreement”) with Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), and the requisite lenders party thereto, relating to that certain Term Loan Agreement, dated as of May 21, 2013 (the “Term Loan Agreement”).

Pursuant to the terms of Amendment No. 1, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders added the Borrowers’ failure to comply with (i) the maximum consolidated leverage ratio covenant and (ii) the minimum interest coverage ratio covenant, in each case for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2014, to the list of Specified Defaults for which the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders agreed that they will forbear, for the Forbearance Period described below, from exercising rights and remedies (in addition to the Specified Defaults set forth in the Forbearance Agreement and described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 2, 2014).

Amendment No. 1 amended the Forbearance Period (as defined in the Forbearance Agreement and described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 2, 2014) to extend the Forbearance Period, which was previously set to expire on June 30, 2014, so that it will expire no later than July 15, 2014. In addition, the period during which the Borrowers may exercise the cure right under Section 8.03 of the Term Loan Agreement with respect to the Specified Defaults for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2014, which was previously set to expire on June 30, 2014, was extended to the end of the Forbearance Period.

The foregoing description of Amendment No. 1 is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of Amendment No. 1, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

Amendment No. 3 to ABL Credit Agreement

On June 30, 2014, the Borrowers and Holdings entered into Amendment No. 3 to Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the “ABL Amendment No. 3”), which amended the Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of May 21, 2013 (the “ABL Credit Agreement”), by and among the Borrowers, Holdings, as a guarantor, the subsidiaries of the Borrowers party thereto, as guarantors, each lender from time to time party thereto and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent.

ABL Amendment No. 3 extended the period during which the definition of “Adjusted Availability” in the ABL Credit Agreement is amended, which was previously set to expire on June 30, 2014, to the earlier of (i) July 15, 2014 and (ii) the date on which the Forbearance Period under the Forbearance Agreement terminates. This amended definition of “Adjusted Availability” increases the Company’s liquidity.

The foregoing description of ABL Amendment No. 3 is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of ABL Amendment No. 3, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

Item 8.01. Other Events.

On June 30, 2014, the Company issued a press release announcing the entry into the Amendment No. 1 to the Forbearance Agreement and ABL Amendment No. 3. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto, and is incorporated by reference herein.
