Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors;


           Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain
           Officers.


On April 9, 2020, each of the named executive officers of Fiserv, Inc. (the "Company") agreed to a temporary reduction in the base salaries otherwise payable to them, effective April 1, 2020. Jeffery Yabuki, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Frank Bisignano, President and Chief Operating Officer, have each agreed to forgo 100% of the base salary that would have been payable to them, and Robert Hau, Devin McGranahan and Byron Vielehr have each agreed to forgo 20% of the base salary that would otherwise have been payable to them; provided that, in each case, such reduction will not include the portion of an executive's base salary necessary to fund continued participation in the Company's health and welfare benefits plans. The foregone compensation will be used to provide assistance to Company associates who experience financial hardship due to COVID-19 through the Fiserv Cares Fund.

The salary reductions will not modify other rights under applicable employment agreements (except that the temporary reduction will not constitute a "good reason" for termination under any agreement to which an officer is a party) or compensation plans determined by reference to the officer's base salary. Such provisions and plans will continue to be applied using the base salary payable immediately prior to the reductions. Additionally, the salary reductions are not intended to reduce any Company employee benefit provided to such officers that is determined by reference to base salary, except as may be required by law.

Item 8.01. Other Events.

On April 9, 2020, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Compensation Committee") resolved to suspend the payment of all cash compensation payable to non-employee directors, which will also be used to provide assistance to Company associates related to COVID-19 through the Fiserv Cares Fund.

On April 9, 2020, the Compensation Committee also approved amendments to the Fiserv, Inc. Amended and Restated Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "ESPP"), effective as of April 1, 2020, to suspend the discount on shares purchased under the ESPP for the period from April 1, 2020 until December 31, 2020.

This description of the ESPP, as amended effective April 1, 2020, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the ESPP, which is filed as Exhibit 4 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
