Item 1.01Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 17, 2016, Gentherm Incorporated (the “Company”), together with the direct and indirect subsidiaries set forth on the signature pages thereto as borrowers or guarantors thereunder, entered into a Second Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Second Amendment”), with the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent.  The Second Amendment amends that certain Credit Agreement, dated August 7, 2014 (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”).

The Second Amendment (i) eliminates the $50 million term loan and the €20 million term loan and increases the aggregate principal amount available for borrowing under the revolving credit facility from $100 million to $250 million; (ii) revises the interest rates and fee percentages; (iii) adds new subsidiary borrowers and guarantors under the Credit Agreement and related security agreement; (iv) permits the Company to designate certain of its subsidiaries as designated borrowers under the Credit Agreement subject to specified conditions; (v) replaces the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio with the consolidated interest coverage ratio; and (vi) modifies certain other covenants to which the Company and its subsidiaries are subject.

The other terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, including the terms under which the amounts due thereunder may be accelerated or increased, were not materially amended by the Second Amendment and remain in full force and effect.

The foregoing summary of the material terms of the Second Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Second Amendment, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
