Material Agreement, Financial Obligation (Form 8-K)

Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 14, 2026, Block, Inc. ("Block") entered into an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement (the "Restated Credit Agreement"), among Block, the lenders that are party thereto, and Goldman Sachs Bank USA, as administrative agent ("Administrative Agent"). The Restated Credit Agreement amends and restates the Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2020, among Block, the lenders that are party thereto, and Goldman Sachs Bank USA, as Administrative Agent, as amended. Among other things, the Restated Credit Agreement increased the unsecured revolving loan facility from an aggregate principal amount of up to $775.0 million to an aggregate principal amount of up to $900.0 million. The facility matures on January 14, 2031, provided that if on the date that is 91 days prior to the maturity date of any of Block's existing convertible notes or senior notes (both as defined in the Restated Credit Agreement), the aggregate amount of liquidity (as defined in the Restated Credit Agreement) would be less than $250 million after giving pro forma effect to the repayment of such existing convertible notes or such senior notes at maturity, then the maturity date of the revolving loans shall be modified to be such date. The proceeds of the loans may be used by Block for working capital and general corporate purposes. As of January 14, 2026, no borrowings or letters of credit were outstanding under the credit facility.

Loans under the Restated Credit Agreement bear interest at Block's option of (i) an annual rate based on the forward-looking term rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("Term SOFR") or (ii) a base rate. Loans based on Term SOFR shall bear interest at a rate equal to Term SOFR plus a margin of between 1.25% and 1.75%, depending on Block's total net leverage ratio. Loans based on the base rate shall bear interest at a rate based on the highest of the prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, and Term SOFR with a tenor of one-monthplus 1.00%, in each case, plus a margin ranging from 0.25% to 0.75%, depending on Block's total net leverage ratio. Interest on the revolving loans is payable quarterly in arrears with respect to borrowings based on the base rate and at the end of an interest period in the case of borrowings based on the adjusted term SOFR rate (or at each three-month interval if the interest period is longer than three months). Block may borrow, prepay without premium or penalty, and reborrow revolving loans, subject to customary conditions. The principal amount of outstanding revolving loans, together with accrued and unpaid interest, is due on the maturity date. Block is also obligated to pay other customary fees for a credit facility of this size and type.

The Restated Credit Agreement requires Block to comply with a maximum total net leverage ratio, measured quarterly. Additionally, the Restated Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative covenants and negative covenants (and customary baskets and exceptions with respect thereto) for a credit facility of this size and type, including covenants that restrict Block's domestic restricted subsidiaries (as defined in the Restated Credit Agreement) from incurring debt for borrowed money, Block and its domestic restricted subsidiaries from granting liens to secure debt for borrowed money and entering into sale and leaseback transactions, and Block and its restricted subsidiaries (as defined in the Restated Credit Agreement) from making certain investments and certain restricted payments.

The Restated Credit Agreement includes customary events of default (subject to customary grace periods), including payment defaults, inaccuracy of representations or warranties in any material respect, violation of covenants, cross acceleration to other material indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events involving Block or its material subsidiaries, unpaid material judgments, certain ERISA events and a change of control. The occurrence of an event of default could result in the termination of the lenders' commitments and the acceleration of the obligations under the Restated Credit Agreement, if any.

From time to time, certain of the lenders under the Restated Credit Agreement and certain of their respective affiliates have engaged in, and may in the future engage in, investment banking and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with Block or Block's affiliates. They have received, or may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions.

The foregoing description of the Restated Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Restated Credit Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
