Item 1.01		Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

     On April 28, 2008, VeriFone Inc. (the “ Borrower ”) and VeriFone Intermediate Holdings, Inc., wholly-owned subsidiaries of VeriFone Holdings, Inc. (the “ Company ”) entered into a Second Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “ Second Amendment ”) with the Lenders under its Credit Agreement, dated as of October 31, 2006, as amended by a first amendment thereto, dated as of January 25, 2008. The Second Amendment extends the time periods for delivery of certain required financial information for the three month periods ended January 31, April 30 and July 31, 2007, the year ended October 31, 2007, the three month period ended January 31, 2008 and the three month period ending April 30, 2008. These delays result from the anticipated restatement of the 2007 historical quarterly financial statements and the related delays in filing the Company’s annual report on From 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2007, the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended January 31, 2008 and the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the three months ending April 30, 2008. The Second Amendment extends the date for delivery of the required financial information to July 31, 2008. The Second Amendment also waives any default or event of default that may result from the Company’s failure to meet the filing requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company’s failure to deliver the required financial information described above and the anticipated restatement. In connection with the Second Amendment, the Borrower paid to consenting Lenders a fee of 0.25% of the aggregate amount outstanding under the term loan and revolving credit commitment made available by the consenting Lenders, agreed to an increase in the interest rate payable on the term loan and any revolving commitments of 0.75% per annum, agreed to an increase of 0.125% per annum to the commitment fee for unused revolving commitments and agreed to an increase of 0.75% per annum to the letter of credit fees, each of which are effective from the date of such Second Amendment.

     The foregoing description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Second Amendment, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this current report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
