Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Fourth Supplemental Indenture

On April 19, 2018, Power Solutions International, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a fourth supplemental indenture (the “Fourth Supplemental Indenture”) to the indenture (“Indenture”) governing its $55.0 million 6.50% senior notes maturing January 1, 2019 (the “Notes”). Amongst other things, the Fourth Supplemental Indenture (a) extends the maturity on the Notes until January 1, 2020 and (b) increases the interest rate of the Notes, effective October 1, 2018, to (i) 7.50% per annum (if the Company’s delinquent annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 (the “2017 10-K”) has been filed with the SEC on or before September 30, 2018) or (ii) 8.50% per annum (if the 2017 10-K has not been filed with the SEC on or before September 30, 2018); provided that the interest rate will immediately revert to 7.50% per annum once the 2017 10-K is filed with the SEC.

The foregoing description of the Fourth Supplemental Indenture is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.

Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Form 8-K Current Report includes information that constitutes forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are covered by the “Safe Harbor for Forward-Looking Statements” provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company has tried to identify these forward-looking statements by using words such as “expect,” “contemplate,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “forecast,” “budgeted,” “believe,” “outlook,” “guidance,” “projection,” “target” or similar expressions, but these words are not the exclusive means for identifying such statements. The Company cautions that a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation: the final results of the Audit Committee’s independent review as it impacts the Company’s accounting, accounting policies and internal control over financial reporting; management’s ability to successfully implement the Audit Committee’s remedial recommendations; the reasons giving rise to the prior resignation of RSM US LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm; the time and effort required to complete the restatement of the affected financial statements, complete its delinquent financial statements and amend or prepare the related Form 10-K and Form 10-Q filings, particularly within the current anticipated timeline; the subsequent discovery of additional adjustments to the Company’s previously issued financial statements; the timing of completion of necessary re-audits, interim reviews and audits by the new independent registered public accounting firm; the timing of completion of steps to address, and the inability to address and remedy, material weaknesses; the identification of additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies; variances in non-recurring expenses; risks relating to the substantial costs and diversion of


personnel’s attention and resources deployed to address the financial reporting and internal control matters and related class action litigation; the ability of the Company to accurately budget for and forecast product shipments, and the extent to which product shipments result in recorded revenues; the impact of the resignation of the Company’s former independent registered public accounting firm, RSM US LLP, on the Company’s relationship with its lender and trade creditors and the potential for defaults and exercise of creditor remedies; the impact of the previously disclosed investigation initiated by the SEC and any related or additional governmental investigative or enforcement proceedings; the impact of resignations of the Company’s directors and certain executive officers and any delays and challenges encountered in recruiting replacements for open positions and the replacements’ transitions into their positions; and any negative impacts from delisting of the Company’s common stock from Nasdaq and any delays and challenges in obtaining a re-listing on a stock exchange. Actual events or results may differ materially from the Company’s expectations. The Company’s forward-looking statements are presented as of the date hereof. Except as required by law, the Company expressly disclaims any intention or obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
