Item 1.01 | Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 16, 2023, NCR Atleos Corporation, a Maryland corporation (the “Company” or “Atleos”), entered into definitive agreements with NCR Voyix Corporation, a Maryland corporation, which was previously known as NCR Corporation (“Voyix”), the parent and owner of all of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock at that time. The definitive agreements were entered into in connection with Voyix’s previously announced plan to separate into two independent, publicly-traded companies, in a transaction in which Voyix will retain its Retail, Hospitality and Digital Banking businesses and spin off its Self-Service Banking, Payments & Network and Telecommunications and Technology businesses to Voyix’s common stockholders (the “Spin-Off”). The definitive agreements entered into between the Company and Voyix in connection with the Spin-Off set forth the terms and conditions of the Spin-Off and provide a framework for the Company’s relationship with Voyix following the Spin-Off, including the allocation between Voyix and the Company of Voyix’s and the Company’s assets, liabilities and obligations attributable to periods prior to, at and after the Spin-Off. These agreements include the Separation and Distribution Agreement (as described below), which contains certain key provisions related to the Spin-Off, as well as a Transition Services Agreement, a Tax Matters Agreement, an Employee Matters Agreement, a Patent and Technology Cross-License Agreement, a Trademark License and Use Agreement, a Master Services Agreement and a Manufacturing Services Agreement (each, as described below) (collectively, the “Separation Agreements”).

Separation and Distribution Agreement

The Separation and Distribution Agreement sets forth the Company’s agreement with Voyix regarding the principal transactions necessary to separate the Company from Voyix. It also sets forth other agreements that govern certain aspects of the Company’s relationship with Voyix after the completion of the Distribution (as defined below).

Transfer of Assets and Assumption of Liabilities. The Separation and Distribution Agreement identifies assets transferred, liabilities assumed and contracts assigned to each of the Company and Voyix as part of the reorganization of Voyix. In particular, the Separation and Distribution Agreement provides that, subject to the terms and conditions contained in the Separation and Distribution Agreement:

| • |  | All assets constituting “Company Assets” will be retained by or transferred to the Company or one of the Company’s subsidiaries. Company Assets consist of, among other things, assets primarily related to the Company business, all rights, claims, causes of action and credits to the extent related to any assets or liabilities allocated to the Company, certain owned and leased real properties designated as Company Assets and certain subsidiaries of Voyix. All other assets of Voyix that are not Company Assets will be retained by or transferred to Voyix. These retained assets include, among others, certain owned and leased real property, certain equity interests in certain investments and all rights, claims, causes of action and credits to the extent relating to any assets or liabilities allocated to Voyix. The Company shall be entitled to retain a maximum of $436.3 million of cash and cash equivalents at the time of the Distribution (subject to an obligation pursuant to the Employee Matters Agreement to make a $136.3 million contribution to the U.S. pension plan following the Distribution), and will be required to repay any amounts it retains in excess thereof to Voyix following the Distribution. In the event that the Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance is less than $386.3 million (the “Cash Floor”) at the time of the Distribution, Voyix shall make a cash payment to the Company equal to the difference between the Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance at the time of the Distribution and the Cash Floor. In addition, in the event that Voyix’s cash and cash equivalents balance is greater than $250 million at the time of the Distribution (less any amounts paid by Voyix pursuant to the preceding sentence), Voyix will be required to make a payment to the Company for fifty percent (50%) of every dollar above such threshold, up to a maximum of $25 million; provided, that, at no time will Voyix make additional payments to the Company which will result in it receiving more than $411.3 million in the aggregate between the amounts it holds at the time of the Distribution and amounts paid to it by Voyix pursuant to this obligation.

| • |  | Voyix will transfer to the Company, and the Company will assume, certain liabilities, whether accrued or contingent, and whether arising prior to, at or after the Distribution, including, among others, all liabilities to the extent relating to the Company business and/or the Company Assets, 50% of certain shared environmental liabilities arising from conduct prior to the Distribution if Voyix’s annual costs with respect thereto exceed $15 million, 50% of all liabilities of a divested or discontinued business that was divested or discontinued prior to the Distribution and liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from any

2

| registration statement or similar disclosure document related to the separation (including the Registration Statement on Form 10 and the Information Statement (each, as defined below)). Voyix will retain all other liabilities, including, among others, 50% of all liabilities of a divested or discontinued business that was divested or discontinued prior to the Distribution, the first $15 million of annual costs incurred in connection with certain shared environmental liabilities arising from conduct prior to the Distribution and 50% of any such costs thereafter, and all indemnification obligations to current and former Voyix directors and officers.

| • |  | Except as otherwise provided in the Separation and Distribution Agreement, in any ancillary agreement, or otherwise agreed between the Company and Voyix, Voyix will be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred on or prior to the Distribution by Voyix or the Company in connection with the Spin-Off transaction (including, without limitation, costs and expenses relating to legal counsel, financial advisors, and accounting advisory work related to the separation) and that remain unpaid as of the Distribution, other than costs arising in connection with the financing transactions for the Company’s indebtedness.

The allocation of liabilities with respect to taxes, except for payroll taxes and reporting and other tax matters expressly covered by the Employee Matters Agreement, are solely covered by the Tax Matters Agreement.

Except as may expressly be set forth in the Separation and Distribution Agreement or any ancillary agreement, all assets are transferred on an “as is,” “where is” basis and the respective transferees will bear the economic and legal risks that any conveyance will prove to be insufficient to vest in the transferee good title, free and clear of any security interest, that any necessary consents or governmental approvals are not obtained, and that any requirements of laws or judgments are not complied with.

Releases and Indemnifications. Except as otherwise provided in the Separation and Distribution Agreement or any ancillary agreement, each party releases and forever discharges the other party and its subsidiaries and affiliates from all liabilities existing or arising from or relating to any acts or events occurring or failing to occur or alleged to have occurred or to have failed to occur or any conditions existing or alleged to have existed on or before the Distribution, whether or not known as of the Distribution, including in connection with the transactions and all other activities to implement the separation or the Distribution. The releases will not extend to obligations or liabilities under any agreement between the parties that is not to terminate as of the Distribution. In addition, the Separation and Distribution Agreement provides for cross-indemnities that, except as otherwise provided in the Separation and Distribution Agreement, are principally designed to place financial responsibility for the obligations and liabilities of the Company’s business with the Company and financial responsibility for the obligations and liabilities of Voyix’s business with Voyix. Specifically, each party will, and will cause its subsidiaries and affiliates to, indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the other party, its affiliates and subsidiaries and each of its officers, directors, employees, and agents for any losses arising out of or otherwise in connection with:

| • |  | the liabilities each such party assumed or retained pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement;

| • |  | the failure of a party to pay, perform or otherwise promptly discharge any liability assumed or retained pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement in accordance with their respective terms; and

| • |  | any breach by such party, following the Spin-Off, of the Separation and Distribution Agreement or certain ancillary agreements.

Each party’s aforementioned indemnification obligations are uncapped; provided that the amount of each party’s indemnification obligations are subject to reduction by any insurance proceeds (net of premium increases) received by the party being indemnified. The Separation and Distribution Agreement also specifies procedures with respect to claims subject to indemnification and related matters. Indemnification with respect to taxes are governed solely by the Tax Matters Agreement.

Legal Matters. Except as otherwise set forth in the Separation and Distribution Agreement (or as further described below), each party to the Separation and Distribution Agreement will assume the liability for, and control of, all pending, threatened and future legal matters related to its own business or assumed or retained liabilities and will indemnify the other party for any liability arising out of or resulting from such assumed legal matters. The Separation and Distribution Agreement will further describe certain shared environmental liabilities, of which, notwithstanding the Company’s obligations to pay its portion of these shared liabilities, Voyix shall assume defense and responsibility for performing all remedial actions, subject to certain specified exceptions.

3

Non-Compete. The Separation and Distribution Agreement will include certain noncompetition obligations with respect to each of the Company and Voyix, prohibiting them from engaging in certain future business and activities that relate to the business of the other party. Specifically, and subject to certain exceptions, for a period of three (3) years following the date of the Distribution, each of Voyix and the Company will not directly or indirectly own, invest in, operate, manage, control, participate or engage in the business as conducted by the other party immediately following the Spin-Off, provided that the Company shall be prohibited from providing certain installation and maintenance services for a further two (2) year period.

Dispute Resolution. Subject to certain exceptions, if a dispute arises with Voyix arising out of, in connection with, or in relation to the Separation and Distribution Agreement or any ancillary agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby, such other representatives as the parties may designate will negotiate to resolve any disputes for a period of forty-five (45) days, which may be extended by mutual written consent. If the parties do not resolve the dispute and the period is not extended, the chief executive officers of the parties will negotiate for a reasonable period of time, not to extend beyond sixty (60) days from the end of the forty-five (45) day period, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties in writing. If the parties are unable to resolve the dispute in this manner, either party may demand that the dispute be submitted to arbitration administered by JAMS for final determination. The dispute will be exclusively and finally determined by arbitration by, for any dispute asserting claims exceeding $1 million (or equivalent value) or seeking injunctive or other equitable relief, a panel of three arbitrators and all other disputes shall be conducted by a sole arbitrator. In certain cases, an emergency arbitrator appointed pursuant to JAMS’ rules may make decisions, subject to final determination by the appropriate arbitrator.

Other Matters Governed by the Separation and Distribution Agreement. Other matters governed by the Separation and Distribution Agreement include access to information, confidentiality, treatment of shared contracts, transfers to be completed following the Distribution and the receipt of any related third-party consents, access to insurance policies and treatment of outstanding guarantees and similar credit support.

Transition Services Agreement

On October 16, 2023, the Company and Voyix entered into a Transition Services Agreement that governs the services to be provided by the parties for a limited period of time to facilitate their transition to standalone businesses. The charges for such services are generally intended to allow the service provider to recover all of its direct and indirect costs, generally without profit. The services to be provided are principally set forth in one or more schedules attached to the Transition Services Agreement, and include information technology, human resources, payroll, tax and real estate-related services, among others. All services to be provided under the Transition Services Agreement will be provided for a specified period of time depending on the type and scope of the services to be provided, with the term for such services to be no longer than twenty-four (24) months and will include services being provided by both parties currently that the Company and Voyix will need to continue receiving following the Spin-Off to operate their respective businesses.

Trade Receivables Facility

On October 16, 2023, Cardtronics entered into a Receivables Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), by and among Cardtronics, as servicer, NCR Atleos Receivables LLC (the “U.S. SPE”), a newly-formed and wholly-owned special purpose entity, as seller, NCR Atleos Canada Receivables LP, a newly-formed special purpose entity (the “Canadian SPE”), as seller, Cardtronics Canada Holdings Inc., as servicer, PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”), as administrative agent, and PNC, MUFG Bank, Ltd., Victory Receivables Corporation and the other purchasers from time to time party thereto (the “Purchasers”). In connection therewith, (i) Cardtronics and ATM National, LLC, as sellers (collectively, the “U.S. Originators”), entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with the U.S. SPE (the “U.S. Sale Agreement”) and (ii) Cardtronics Canada Holdings Inc., as seller (the “Canadian Originator”), entered into a Canadian Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Canadian Sale Agreement,” and together with the U.S. Sale Agreement, the “Sale Agreements”).

The Purchase Agreement and the Sale Agreements establish a revolving trade receivables facility (the “Trade Receivables Facility”) that provides for up to $166 million in funding based on the availability of eligible receivables and other customary factors, and the satisfaction of certain conditions. The Trade Receivables Facility has an initial term of two years, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the terms thereof, and may be extended by agreement of the parties.

Under the Trade Receivables Facility (i) the U.S. Originators will sell or contribute their trade receivables to the U.S. SPE as those trade receivables are originated and (ii) the Canadian Originator will sell or contribute its trade receivables to the Canadian SPE as those trade receivables are originated. The U.S. SPE will in turn sell to PNC for the benefit of the Purchasers an undivided ownership interest in a portion of the trade receivables that it acquires under the U.S. Sale Agreement. Such portion of the trade receivables will be de-recognized from the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and treated as sales under ASC 860. Any remaining portion of trade receivables that are not sold by the U.S. SPE and all of the trade receivables acquired by the Canadian SPE pursuant to the Canadian Sale Agreement are pledged to the Purchasers to secure repayment of the trade receivables sold to the Purchasers and the performance of other obligations of the U.S. SPE and the Canadian SPE under the Purchase Agreement.

All of the assets of the U.S. SPE and the Canadian SPE are restricted collateral for the payment of their obligations under the Trade Receivables Facility. None of the assets or credit of the U.S. SPE or the Canadian SPE is available to satisfy the debts and obligations owed to the creditors of the U.S. Originators, the Canadian Originator or any of their affiliates, including the Company. The U.S. Originators, the Canadian Originator and each other originator that may participate in the Trade Receivables Facility is liable for its own customary representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities as originator and/or servicer of the trade receivables. The Company entered into a guaranty on customary terms pursuant to which it guarantees the performance of the origination and servicing obligations of its subsidiaries that participate in the Trade Receivables Facility. The Company will include the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the U.S. SPE and the Canadian SPE in its consolidated financial statements.

The investments made by the Purchasers in the trade receivables under the Purchase Agreement accrue yield at a fluctuating rate based on SOFR (or a successor benchmark determined in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement) or commercial paper interest rates.

In addition, the U.S. SPE paid certain upfront closing fees to the administrative agent and the structuring agent for their services and will pay annual commitment and other customary fees to the Purchasers. The U.S. SPE may prepay any investment made by the Purchasers under the Purchase Agreement with two business days’ notice, and may also reduce the facility limit with 15 days’ prior notice.

The Trade Receivables Facility contains various customary affirmative and negative covenants and default and termination provisions, which provide for the acceleration of the investments made by the Purchasers under the Trade Receivables Facility in circumstances including, but not limited to, failure to pay yield on the capital of the Purchasers when due, the failure to return the capital of the Purchasers when due, breach of representation, warranty or covenant, certain insolvency events or failure to maintain the security interest in the trade receivables, and defaults under other material indebtedness.

The Purchase Agreement, the U.S. Sale Agreement, the Canadian Sale Agreement and the performance guaranty are filed as exhibits 10.8, 10.9, 10.10 and 10.11 hereto, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference, and the description of the T/R Facility contained herein is qualified in its entirety by the terms of these agreements.

General

Immediately prior to the consummation of the Spin-Off, the Company was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Voyix. Effective as of 5:00 p.m. local New York City time on October 16, 2023 (the “Distribution Date”), Voyix completed the Spin-Off through a pro rata distribution to holders of record of Voyix’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Voyix Common Stock”), as of 5:00 p.m. local New York City time on October 2, 2023 (the “Record Date”), of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Company Common Stock”), for every two shares of Voyix Common Stock held by such Voyix common stockholders as of the Record Date (the “Distribution”).
