As previously reported in a Current Report on

Form 8-K”),
Xerox Corporation (“Xerox Corporation” or “Xerox”) entered into an Equity Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Ninestar Group Company Limited (the “Seller”) and Lexmark International II, LLC (“Lexmark”), which provided, among other things, that, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Xerox Corporation will purchase from the Seller all of the issued and outstanding equity securities of Lexmark (the “Lexmark Acquisition”).
On July 1, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), Xerox Corporation completed its acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding equity securities of Lexmark for total consideration of $1.5 billion, inclusive of net debt and other assumed liabilities.
The material terms of the Purchase Agreement were previously reported in Item 1.01 of the Original Form

On the Closing Date, Xerox Corporation made an incremental term loan borrowing of $327,152,215.80 (“Incremental Term Loans”) under its First Lien Term Loan Credit Agreement, dated as of November 17, 2023, among Xerox Corporation, as borrower, Xerox Holdings Corporation (“Holdings”) and certain subsidiaries of Xerox Corporation as guarantors, Jefferies Finance LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent and the lenders party thereto (the “TLB Facility”) pursuant to an amendment to the TLB Facility. Certain lenders under the Lexmark Credit Agreement (as defined below) (collectively, the “Incremental Term Lenders”) agreed to provide the Incremental Term Loans in an amount equal to their respective outstanding term loans under the Lexmark Credit Agreement and, with respect to Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc. (“MSSF”), its revolving loans and undrawn revolving commitments, in each case under that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of July 13, 2022 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented, extended, renewed or otherwise modified from time to time prior to the Closing Date, “Lexmark Credit Agreement”) among Lexmark, as US holdings, Lexmark International, Inc., as borrower, the other guarantors party thereto, MSSF, as administrative agent and collateral agent and the lenders party thereto, outstanding immediately prior to the Closing Date. Substantially all of the net proceeds of the Incremental Term Loans were used to repay (through a cashless settlement) a portion of Lexmark’s outstanding debt under the Lexmark Credit Agreement (together with accrued interest and any applicable expenses, fees or premiums) and to pay fees and expenses in connection with the Lexmark Acquisition and the related transactions.
For a summary and description of the TLB Facility governing the Incremental Term Loans, please refer to the full text of the TLB

13.00% Senior Notes Due 2030
On the Closing Date, Holdings completed its private offering of $250,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 13.00% Senior Notes due 2030 (the “2030 Notes”) issued by Holdings. The 2030 Notes were purchased in lieu of the notes originally contemplated by the PIK Notes Commitment Letter (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).
The 2030 Notes are governed by an Indenture, dated as of the Closing Date (the “2030 Indenture”), among Holdings, certain of Holdings’ domestic subsidiaries and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee, with certain of Holdings’ foreign subsidiaries to be joined as guarantors on a post-closing basis.

The 2030 Notes are unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured basis by Xerox and certain of Xerox’s domestic subsidiaries, with certain of Xerox’s foreign subsidiaries to provide guarantees on a post-closing basis. The net proceeds of the 2030 Notes were used to fund a portion of the purchase price for the Lexmark Acquisition and to repay a portion of Lexmark’s outstanding debt (together with accrued interest and any applicable expenses, fees or premiums) and to pay fees and expenses in connection with the Lexmark Acquisition and the related transactions.

Escrow Release of 2031 Notes
As previously reported, in connection with the financing for the Lexmark Acquisition, Xerox Corporation completed a private offering of $400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 13.500% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2031 (the “2031 Notes”) issued by Xerox Issuer Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Xerox Corporation (“Escrow Issuer”).

Upon the consummation of the Lexmark Acquisition, the escrowed proceeds from the issuance of the 2031 Notes were released from the escrow account and the Escrow Issuer was merged with and into Xerox Corporation. Upon the Escrow Release, Xerox Corporation, Holdings and certain of Holdings’ domestic and foreign subsidiaries that guarantee Xerox Corporation’s 10.250% Senior Secured First Lien Notes due 2030 entered into a Second Supplemental Indenture, dated July 1, 2025 (the “Second Supplemental Indenture”), to the 2031 Indenture to provide for the assumption by Xerox Corporation of the obligations of the Escrow Issuer as issuer of the 2031 Notes and for the guarantees of the 2031 Notes by Holdings and such subsidiaries (the “Assumption”). As a result of the Escrow Release and the Assumption, the 2031 Notes, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens, are secured on a second-priority basis by security interests in substantially all of the assets of Holdings and such subsidiaries (the “Xerox Collateral”) that is Fixed Asset Collateral (as defined in the 2031 Indenture) and on a third-priority basis by the Xerox Collateral that is Current Asset Collateral (as defined in the 2031 Indenture).
