Item 1.01    Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 24, 2019, BlueLinx Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) amended its existing term loan facility (the “Facility”) by entering into that certain Third Amendment to Credit and Guaranty Agreement (the “Amendment”), by and among the Company, as borrower, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries, as guarantors, the lenders party thereto, and HPS Investment Partners, LLC, in its capacity as administrative agent.

Pursuant to the Amendment, the Company will be permitted to enter into additional real estate sale leaseback transactions, effective from the date of the Amendment through the remaining tenor of the Facility, with the net proceeds therefrom to be used for repayment of indebtedness under the Facility or the Company’s revolving credit facility. In addition, any net proceeds from the sale by the Company of “Specified Properties” (as such term is defined under the Facility) will be used for repayment of indebtedness under the Facility and the Company’s revolving credit facility. The Amendment also modifies the quarterly Total Net Leverage Ratio covenant levels over the term of the Facility with the 2019 fourth quarter and subsequent quarterly level modifications reverting to the pre-Amendment levels subject to a designated outstanding principal balance level on January 31, 2020. The parties also agreed that certain post-period prepayment rights would not apply for purposes of calculating compliance with the Total Net Leverage Ratio for the fourth quarter of 2019.

The foregoing description of the material terms of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report and incorporated herein by reference.
