1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On March 31, 2011, Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an agreement (the “Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) with participating lenders to amend and restate the original credit agreement among the Company and certain parties dated August 20, 2010 (“Original Credit Agreement”). The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement includes certain changes from the terms of the Original Credit agreement.

The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement reduces the applicable interest margin for borrowings under the senior credit facilities by .75% at each level of the leverage based pricing grid. In addition, the Commitment Fee was reduced at certain levels of the leverage based pricing grid. The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement also allows the Company to borrow up to $100 million under its revolving credit facility in certain foreign currencies and increases the leverage ratio in which the Company can make unlimited Restricted Payments from 1.75 to 1 to 2.00 to 1.

The maturity date and principal amount of the senior secured credit facilities remains the same as in the Original Credit Agreement. In addition, the prepayment provisions and covenants included in the Original Credit Agreement have not changed, except as discussed above.

The foregoing summary of the changes to the Original Credit Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference.
