Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
The information set forth under Item 2.01 "Completion of Acquisition or
Disposition of Assets" is incorporated into this Item 1.01 by reference.
First Incremental Term Loan
On December 31, 2021, Blackbaud, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"),
entered into the First Incremental Term Loan Agreement (the "Incremental
Amendment"), by and among the Company, the lenders party thereto and Bank of
America N.A., as administrative agent (the "Agent"). The Incremental Amendment
amends that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of October 30, 2020 (the "Credit
Agreement"), by and among the Company, the lenders from time to time party
thereto and the Agent. The Incremental Amendment, among other things, provides
for $250 million of incremental term loans (the "2021 Incremental Term Loans").
On December 31, 2021, the Company borrowed a total of $435 million under the
Credit Agreement, including $250 million under the 2021 Incremental Term Loans
and $185 million of revolving credit loans, to fund a portion of the
consideration and expenses related to the Merger, as described in Item 2.01
below. As of December 31, 2021 and following such borrowing, the Company had
$239.5 million of available borrowing capacity under the Credit Agreement, as
amended by the Incremental Amendment.
The 2021 Incremental Term Loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at
the option of the Company: (a) a base rate equal to the highest of (i) the
Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, (ii) the prime rate announced by Bank of America,
N.A., and (iii) the Daily SOFR rate plus 1.00% (the "Base Rate"), plus an
applicable margin as specified in the Incremental Amendment (the "Applicable
Margin"); (b) the Daily SOFR rate plus a SOFR adjustment rate as specified in
the Incremental Amendment (the "SOFR Adjustment") plus the Applicable Margin; or
(c) the Term SOFR rate plus the SOFR Adjustment plus the Applicable Margin. The
Applicable Margin shall be adjusted quarterly, varies based on our net leverage
ratio and varies based on whether the loan is a Base Rate loan (0.375% to 1.50%)
or a SOFR Rate loan (1.375% to 2.50%). The SOFR Adjustment varies based on the
applicable interest period and equals 0.10% for Daily SOFR loans and for Term
SOFR loans with a one-month interest period, 0.15% for Term SOFR loans with a
three-month interest period and 0.25% for Term SOFR loans with a six-month
interest period. The 2021 Incremental Term Loans mature on October 30, 2025,
which is the maturity date of the existing term loans under the Credit
Agreement, and are otherwise subject to substantially the same terms and
conditions as the existing term loans under the Credit Agreement.
A copy of the Incremental Amendment is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current
Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The description
above is a summary of the Incremental Amendment, does not purport to be
complete, and is qualified in its entirety by the complete text of the
Incremental Amendment.

(the "Registration Rights Agreement") by and among the Company, EverFi, Inc., a

December 30, 2021 (the "Merger Agreement"), by and among the Company, Project
Montessori Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary
of the Company ("Merger Sub"), EverFi, and Eon Stockholder Representative, LLC,
a Delaware limited liability company, solely in its capacity as the Seller
Representative, the Company and the other parties to the Merger Agreement,
subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, effected a merger
pursuant to which the Company acquired EverFi and its subsidiaries when Merger

The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that on the terms and subject
to the conditions set forth therein, the Company will pay total consideration of
approximately $750 million, on a cash-free, debt-free basis and subject to
certain customary adjustments. The consideration paid in the transaction was up

trading days prior to and including December 29, 2021), and approximately $450
million in cash consisting of borrowings (as described in Item 1.01 above) and
cash on hand.
The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement is qualified in its entirety
by reference to the text of the Merger Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1
hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
