Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On December 17, 2010, Patrick Industries, Inc., an Indiana corporation (the “Company”), entered into a Fifth Amendment (the “Fifth Amendment”) to the Company’s Credit Agreement, dated May 18, 2007, among the Company, the lenders party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (the “Credit Agreement”).

The Fifth Amendment amended certain definitions, terms and reporting requirements and extends the revolving termination date and term maturity date of the Company’s existing senior secured credit facility and related term loan to May 31, 2011 to allow a new facility to be put in place.  In addition, the financial covenants were modified to reflect the Company’s updated operating and cash flow projections.
 
Effective with the Fifth Amendment, borrowings under the revolving line of credit, subject to a borrowing base up to a maximum borrowing limit of $28.0 million, and the interest rates for borrowings under the revolving line of credit and the term loan of the Credit Agreement, remained unchanged.  The Company’s ability to access these borrowings is subject to compliance with the terms and conditions of the credit facility including the financial covenants.

The foregoing description of the Fifth Amendment is qualified in its entirety by the actual agreement, which is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1.
 
On December 20, 2010, the Company issued a press release announcing the completion of the amendment.  A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
