Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 13, 2020, Upwork Inc. (“Upwork”) entered into a Fourth Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (the “Amendment”) with Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”). The Amendment amends certain provisions of the Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of September 19, 2017, between Upwork and SVB, as previously amended by the First Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of November 29, 2017, as further amended by the Second Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of September 17, 2018, and as further amended by the Third Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of March 18, 2019.

The Amendment, among other changes, amends the maturity date of the revolving line of credit from September 17, 2020 to September 30, 2022 and removes the accounts receivable borrowing base from the revolving line of credit such that the entire $25,000,000 line of credit will be available for borrowing regardless of the amount of accounts receivable outstanding. The Amendment contains customary representations and warranties.

The foregoing summary of key terms of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the complete text of the Amendment, a copy of which Upwork expects to file with its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2020, and upon filing will be incorporated herein by reference.
