Item 1.01. Amendment of a Material Definitive Agreement.
     On August 13, 2007, Bell Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into Amendment Number Two to Credit Agreement, Consent and Waiver (the “Second Amendment”), with Wells Fargo Foothill, Inc. as the administrative agent for the lenders (the “Agent”). The Second Amendment amends the Company’s Credit Agreement dated January 31, 2007 (the “Credit Facility”) and provides the Company with an incremental $2 million of availability through October 31, 2007. Also pursuant to the Second Amendment, the lenders provided their consent to complete the sales of shares of stock (the “Shares”) held by the Company in two corporations that hold certain Federal Communications Commission licenses for the operation of Broadband Radio Service channels to Sprint Nextel (“Sprint”) and waived certain of the Company’s default of it’s compliance with a covenant in the Credit Facility requiring a certain level of profitability for the six month period ended June 30, 2007. The Second Amendment also amends the profitability covenants the nine month period ended September 30, 2007 and the twelve month period ended December 31, 2007 and reduces the amount of the Credit Facility available for borrowing upon completion of the sales of Shares to Sprint.
