Item 8.01.
Other Events.

On July 19, 2022, HP Inc. (the “Company”) announced the early participation results of its previously announced (i) offer to exchange (the “Exchange Offer”) any and all outstanding notes (the “Poly Notes”) issued by Plantronics, Inc. (“Poly”) for up to $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of new notes to be issued by the Company and (ii) the related solicitation of consents (together with the Exchange Offer, the “Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation”) to adopt certain proposed amendments (the “Amendments”) that would eliminate substantially all restrictive covenants and certain events of default and other provisions in the indenture (the “Poly Indenture”) governing the Poly Notes.

Based on the early tenders as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 18, 2022, the requisite consents have been received to adopt the Amendments with respect to the Poly Notes.

The Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation was commenced in connection with the pending acquisition of Poly by the Company (the “Acquisition”) and is conditioned, among other things, upon the closing of the Acquisition.  The Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation will expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on August 1, 2022, unless extended or earlier terminated (such date and time, as may be extended, the “Expiration Date”).  It is expected that Poly will promptly execute the supplemental indenture to the Poly Indenture implementing the Amendments; however, the Amendments will become operative only upon the settlement of the Exchange Offer, which is expected to occur promptly after the Expiration Date and no earlier than the closing date of the Acquisition.

A copy of the Company’s press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
