Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 2, 2009, Champion Home Builders Co. ("Champion Homes"), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Champion Enterprises, Inc. (the "Company"), the
Company and certain additional subsidiaries of the Company entered into a
Seventh Amendment and Waiver to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the
"Seventh Amendment") with certain financial institutions and other parties
thereto as lenders (the "Lenders") and Credit Suisse, Cayman Islands Branch
("Credit Suisse"), as Administrative Agent, which modifies the Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of April 7, 2006, as amended, among Champion
Homes, the Company, the Lenders and Credit Suisse, as Administrative Agent (the
"Credit Agreement").
On August 12, 2009, the Company entered a Sixth Amendment to the Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement that provided, among other things, for an initial
30-day waiver of certain covenants through September 11, 2009. On September 2,
2009, the Company entered the Seventh Amendment that provides, among other
things, for an additional 30-day extension of the waiver of certain covenants
through October 12, 2009. During the period of the Seventh Amendment, the Credit
Agreement debt continues to be subject to the additional 2% per annum of
interest, payable in kind, which was instituted with the Sixth Amendment.
Other than the Credit Agreement, as amended, there are no material relationships
between Credit Suisse or the Lenders and the Company or any of their respective
affiliates, other than as follows: (i) the Company and its affiliates may have
customary banking relationships with one or more of the Lenders and
(ii) affiliates of Credit Suisse have in the past provided investment banking
and investment banking-related services to the Company and certain of its
subsidiaries, and these entities may continue to do so in the future.
The foregoing description of the Seventh Amendment is qualified in its entirety
by reference to the full text of the Seventh Amendment, which is filed as
Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
