Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 27, 2008, Nautilus, Inc., a Washington corporation (the “Company”), and its subsidiary, Nautilus International S.A., entered into a Fourth Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (the “Amendment”) in respect of the Loan and Security Agreement dated as of January 16, 2008 between the Company and Bank of America, N.A. (the “Lender”) as amended (the “Loan Agreement”).

The Company previously announced a restructuring plan and, as a result, the Company’s anticipated borrowing needs are reduced. The Amendment lowers the aggregate commitment of the lender to make revolving loans under the Loan Agreement from $70,000,000 to $40,000,000. The Loan Agreement continues to include an option to increase the facility by $25,000,000 to $65,000,000. Additionally, the Company and the Lender modified the definition of “Excess Availability,” and revised certain conditions related to excess borrowing availability under which the Company may repurchase its common stock pursuant to its previously announced stock repurchase program.
