Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On May 10, 2011, BlueLinx Corporation (the “Operating Company”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of BlueLinx Holdings Inc. (the “Registrant”), reached an agreement (the “Third Amendment”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, successor by merger to Wachovia Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”) and the other signatories thereto to amend the terms of its existing Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, dated August 4, 2006, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”). The Third Amendment modifies the Agreement as follows:
  (a)   increases the amount of our accounts receivable included in the calculation of the borrowing base to 87.5%;
 
  (b)   increases the applicable percentage of the liquidation value of our inventory included in the calculation of the borrowing base to 90.0% for the periods January to March 2012 and January to March 2013, subject to specified EBITDA levels;
 
  (c)   includes in the calculation of our excess liquidity certain cash on the balance sheet and subject to a deposit account control agreement;
 
  (d)   reduces the excess liquidity we are required to maintain under the Credit Agreement to the greater of (i) $35 million or (ii) the amount equal to 15% of the lesser of (A) our borrowing base or (B) $400 million; and
 
  (e)   decreases the amount of excess liquidity we are required to maintain in order to avoid being required to meet certain financial ratios and triggering additional limits on capital expenditures under the Credit Agreement to the greater of (i) $30,000,000 or (ii) the amount equal to 15% of the lesser of (A) our borrowing base or (B) $400 million.
Except as described above, all other material terms of the Credit Agreement remain unchanged. Effectiveness of the Third Amendment is contingent on the successful completion of the previously announced rights offering. No assurances can be provided as to the timing of the completion of the rights offering or that it will be completed at all.
The foregoing description of the Third Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Third Amendment, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
