FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
December 12, 2022
Diebold Nixdorf, Incorporated Announces Extension of Early Delivery Time in Previously Announced Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation with Respect to its Outstanding 8.50% Senior Notes due 2024
HUDSON, Ohio – On November 28, 2022, Diebold Nixdorf, Incorporated (“Parent”) (NYSE:DBD) announced the commencement of a private exchange offer and consent solicitation (the “Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation”) with respect to the outstanding 8.50% Senior Notes due 2024 issued by Parent (144A CUSIP: 253651AA1; REG S CUSIP: U25316AA5; Registered CUSIP: 253651AC7) (the “2024 Senior Notes”), which includes (i) a private offer to Eligible Holders (as defined below) to exchange any and all 2024 Senior Notes for units (the “Units”) consisting of (1) new 8.50%/12.50% Senior Secured PIK Toggle Notes due 2026 to be issued by Parent (the “New Notes”) and (2) warrants (the “New Warrants” and, together with the Units and the New Notes, the “New Securities”) to purchase common shares, par value $1.25 per share, of Parent (“Common Shares”), which will, in the aggregate, be exercisable for up to 19.99% of the Common Shares outstanding on the business day immediately preceding the Settlement Date (as defined below) (calculated on a non-diluted basis and prior to giving effect to any exercise of the New Warrants and the payment of the exercise price thereof via net share settlement, which applies to any exercise of the New Warrants), subject to adjustment, and (ii) a related consent solicitation to adopt certain proposed amendments to the indenture governing the 2024 Senior Notes to eliminate certain of the covenants, restrictive provisions and events of default intended to protect holders, among other things, from such indenture, as described in more detail in the Offering Memorandum (as defined below) (the “Proposed Amendments”). The Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation is being made on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offering Memorandum and Consent Solicitation Statement, dated as of November 28, 2022 (the “Offering Memorandum”), as amended by this announcement, and the related eligibility letter, each of which sets forth in more detail the terms and conditions of the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation.
Parent has received the requisite number of consents to adopt the Proposed Amendments with respect to the 2024 Senior Notes and intends to promptly enter into a supplemental indenture with the trustee for the 2024 Senior Notes (the “Supplemental Indenture”) to effect the Proposed Amendments. The Supplemental Indenture will be effective immediately upon its execution by all parties, but will not become operative until the Settlement Date.
Parent announces that it is amending the Early Delivery Time (as defined in the Offering Memorandum) in respect of the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation to be 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on December 23, 2022.
Parent also announces that withdrawal rights for the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation expired as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on December 9, 2022 (the “Withdrawal Deadline”). Any 2024 Senior Notes validly tendered pursuant to the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation may no longer be withdrawn, and any 2024 Senior Notes validly tendered on or after the Withdrawal Deadline and prior to 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on December 23, 2022 (such date and time, as it may be extended, the “Expiration Time”) may not be withdrawn.
The other terms of the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation remain unchanged.
The Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation are subject to certain conditions, which Parent may waive in full or in part in its sole discretion, but subject to the terms of the previously reported Transaction Support Agreement that it has entered into (the “Transaction Support Agreement”), including, subject to waiver, minimum participation thresholds of 83.4% for the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation and 95% for the exchange of the existing term loans described more fully in the Transaction Support Agreement and the Offering Memorandum, among other conditions. Consummation of the refinancing transactions described in the Transaction Support Agreement and the Offering Memorandum on the Settlement Date is a condition to the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation. If the conditions to the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation are not satisfied or waived, the Supplemental Indenture will not become operative.
The Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation will expire at the Expiration Time, unless earlier terminated or extended by Parent. The settlement date for the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation (the “Settlement Date”) will be promptly after the Expiration Time and is expected to be the third business day following the Expiration Time.
D.F. King & Co., Inc. is acting as the Information and Exchange Agent for the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation. Questions or requests for assistance related to the Exchange Offer or for copies of the Offering Memorandum may be directed to D.F.

You may also contact your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee for assistance concerning the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation.
Eligible Holders are advised to check with any bank, securities broker or other intermediary through which they hold 2024 Senior Notes as to when such intermediary would need to receive instructions from such Eligible Holder in order for that Eligible Holder to be able to participate in, the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation, before the deadlines specified herein and in the Offering Memorandum. The deadlines set by any such intermediary and The Depositary Trust Company for the submission of tender instructions will also be earlier than the relevant deadlines specified herein and in the Offering Memorandum.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains statements that are not historical information and are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements give current expectations or forecasts of future events and are not guarantees of future performance. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, projections, statements regarding the company’s expected future performance (including expected results of operations and financial guidance), future financial condition, potential impact of the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, anticipated operating results, strategy plans, future liquidity and financial position.

Statements that describe the company’s future plans, objectives or goals are also forward-looking statements, which reflect the current views of the company with respect to future events and are subject to assumptions, risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially. Although the company believes that these forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions regarding, among other things, the economy, its knowledge of its business, and key performance indicators that impact the company, these forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements.

The factors that may affect the company’s results include, among others:
| • | our ability to successfully complete the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Support Agreement, including the ability to negotiate and execute definitive documentation, the receipt of required consents to any or all of such transactions, satisfaction of any conditions in any such documentation and the availability of alternative transactions; |
| • | the overall impact of the global supply chain complexities on the company and its business, including delays in sourcing key components as well as longer transport times, especially for container ships and U.S. trucking, given the company’s reliance on suppliers, subcontractors and availability of raw materials and other components; |
| • | our ability to successfully convert our backlog into sales, including our ability to overcome supply chain and liquidity challenges; |
| • | the ultimate impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and other public health emergencies, including further adverse effects to the company’s supply chain, maintenance of increased order backlog, and the effects of any COVID-19 related cancellations; |

| • | the company’s reliance on suppliers, subcontractors and availability of raw materials and other components; |
| • | changes in the company’s intention to further repatriate cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments residing in international tax jurisdictions, which could negatively impact foreign and domestic taxes; |
| • | the company’s success in divesting, reorganizing or exiting non-core and/or non-accretive businesses and its ability to successfully manage acquisitions, divestitures, and alliances; |
| • | the ultimate outcome of the appraisal proceedings initiated in connection with the implementation of the Domination and Profit Loss Transfer Agreement with the former Diebold Nixdorf AG (which was dismissed in the company’s favor at the lower court level in May 2022) and the merger/squeeze-out; |
| • | the impact of market and economic conditions, including the bankruptcies, restructuring or consolidations of financial institutions, which could reduce the company’s customer base and/or adversely affect its customers’ ability to make capital expenditures, as well as adversely impact the availability and cost of credit; |
4 of 5
| • | the impact of competitive pressures, including pricing pressures and technological developments; |
| • | changes in political, economic or other factors such as currency exchange rates, inflation rates (including the impact of possible currency devaluations in countries experiencing high inflation rates), recessionary or expansive trends, hostilities or conflicts (including the conflict between Russia and Ukraine), disruption in energy supply, taxes and regulations and laws affecting the worldwide business in each of the company’s operations; |
| • | the company’s ability to maintain effective internal controls; |
| • | unanticipated litigation, claims or assessments, as well as the outcome/impact of any current/pending litigation, claims or assessments; |
| • | the effect of changes in law and regulations or the manner of enforcement in the U.S. and internationally and the company’s ability to comply with government regulations; and |
| • | other factors included in the company’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2022, June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2022 and in other documents the company files with the SEC. |
Except to the extent required by applicable law or regulation, the company undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect future events or circumstances or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
You should consider these factors carefully in evaluating forward-looking statements and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements.
