Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement, Financial Statements and Exhibits

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 3, 2009, Imation Corp. completed an amendment to its credit facility as further described below. The amendment is intended to provide a more consistent amount of availability under the credit agreement, accomplished in part by changing the form of the credit facility such that the availability is now based on the value of certain assets and generally removing limitations to availability based on income levels. In addition, we have decreased the overall size of the facility. Specifically, Imation Corp. and Imation Enterprises Corp. (collectively, the "Borrowers" or "we," "us" or "our") entered into a Third Amendment to Credit Agreement (the "Third Amendment") with a consortium of lenders (the "Lenders") and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent and L/C Issuer (the "Agent"). The Third Amendment amended our Credit Agreement dated as of March 29, 2006 (as amended by the Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of July 24, 2007 and the Second Amendment to Credit Agreement dated April 25, 2008) among the Borrowers, the Agent and the other Lenders (collectively the "Credit Agreement"). The Third Amendment results in a reduction of the senior revolving credit facility to an amount up to $200,000,000 (the "Credit Facility"), including a $75,000,000 sub-limit for letters of credit, that we may use (i) to pay fees, commissions and expenses in connection with the Credit Facility and (ii) for ongoing working capital requirements, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes. Pricing has also been adjusted as the result of the Third Amendment. Through December 31, 2009, borrowings under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate equal to (i) the Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus 3.50% or (ii) the Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus 2.50%. Commencing January 1, 2010, the applicable margins for the Eurodollar Rate and the Base Rate will be subject to adjustments based on average daily Availability (as defined in the Credit Agreement), as set forth in the definition of "Applicable Rate" in the Credit Agreement. Advances under the Credit Facility are limited to the lesser of (a) $200,000,000 and (b) the "Borrowing Base." The Borrowing Base is equal to the following:
Х up to 85% of eligible accounts receivable; plus

Х up to the lesser of 65% of eligible inventory or 85% of the appraised net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory; plus

Х up to 60% of the appraised fair market value of eligible real estate at closing (the "Original Real Estate Value"), such Original Real Estate Value to be reduced each calendar month by 1/84th, provided, that the Original Real Estate Value shall not exceed $40,000,000; plus

Х such other classes of collateral as may be mutually agreed upon and at advance rates as may be determined by the Agent; minus

Х such reserves as the Agent may establish in good faith.

The Credit Agreement expires on March 29, 2012.
The Credit Agreement contains covenants which are customary for similar credit arrangements, including covenants relating to financial reporting and notification; payment of indebtedness, taxes and other obligations; and compliance with applicable laws and limitations regarding additional liens, indebtedness, certain acquisitions, investments and dispositions of assets. The Credit Agreement also contains a conditional financial covenant that requires us to have a Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of not less than 1.20 to 1.00 during certain periods described in the Credit Agreement. Imation Corp. was in compliance with all covenants it was required to be in compliance with as of June 3, 2009.
Our obligations under the Credit Agreement continue to be guaranteed by the material domestic subsidiaries of Imation Corp. (the "Guarantors") and, by virtue of the Third Amendment, are now secured by a first priority lien (subject to customary exceptions) on the real property comprising Imation Corp.'s corporate headquarters and all of the personal property of the Borrowers and the Guarantors.
Bank of America, N.A. and other Lenders provide banking and financial services to Imation Corp. from time to time.
The foregoing description of the Credit Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Credit Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
