ITEM 1.01. ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

On June 30, 2006, Rewards Network Inc. (the “Corporation”), subsidiaries of the Corporation party thereto, Bank of America, N.A., and lenders party thereto entered into an Amendment No. 2 to Credit Agreement (“Amendment”), which amends the Credit Agreement, dated as of November 3, 2004, among the Corporation, Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent and Letter of Credit Issuer, and the other lenders party thereto (“Credit Agreement”).

The Amendment extends the maturity date of the Credit Agreement to June 29, 2007. The Credit Agreement requires that borrowings under the Credit Agreement be secured by the assets of the Corporation, and the Amendment provides that the Corporation will deliver documents providing for this security prior to the time the Corporation makes a borrowing under the Credit Agreement instead of promptly after a borrowing. The Amendment also (i) revises the definition of “Consolidated EBITDA”, which is earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and other items as set forth in such definition, to exclude expenses related to certain litigation matters, subject to agreed upon terms and conditions, (ii) eliminates the financial covenant requiring the Corporation to maintain a minimum net worth, (iii) permits the Corporation to make certain payments that are otherwise restricted, such as dividends or the purchase of the Corporation’s common stock, provided that the Corporation maintains a minimum ratio of net indebtedness to Consolidated EBITDA and there is no resulting default, (iv) permits the Corporation to make acquisitions, subject to certain conditions, and (v) increases the amount of the Corporation’s subordinated notes that the Corporation may redeem, provided there is no resulting default, from $10 million to $70 million.

The Corporation does not currently have any borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.
