Item 2.03.		Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

As previously disclosed, MedQuist Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) and its indirect subsidiary, MedQuist Inc. (“MedQuist”) entered into the Credit Agreement, dated October 1, 2010 (the “Credit Agreement”) which, among other things, provided for a $25 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”). Also as previously disclosed, the Credit Agreement was amended pursuant to a First Amendment to the Credit Agreement, Waiver and Consent dated July 11, 2011 (the “Amendment,” and together with the Credit Agreement, the “Amended Agreement”).

On September 30, 2011, MedQuist initiated a draw down of $22 million under the Revolving Facility for general corporate purposes (the “Advance”). The Advance bears an interest rate of 7.75% per annum. With the Advance and all previous draw downs, the entire $25 million of the Revolving Facility has been drawn upon and remains outstanding.

Amounts borrowed under the Revolving Facility (including the Advance) are due and payable, together with all unpaid interest, fees and other obligations, no later than October 1, 2015, or earlier upon exercise by the lenders under the Amended Agreement of their right to accelerate the due date of obligations upon the occurrence of an event of default, as described in Section 9.2 of the Credit Agreement.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Credit Agreement attached as Exhibit 10.2 to Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 of the Company (File No. 333-169997) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 26, 2010 and the Amendment attached as Exhibit 10.1 of Form 8-K filed with the SEC on July 12, 2011, each of which are incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.
