Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Amendment No. 2 to Loan and Security Agreement
On May 24, 2006, OfficeMax Incorporated (the Company) entered into Amendment No. 2 to Loan Agreement (the Amended Agreement) by and among the Company, certain of its subsidiaries who are also borrowers under the Amended Agreement, certain of its subsidiaries who are guarantors of obligations under the Amended Agreement, certain lenders, and Wachovia Capital Finance Corporation (Central) (Wachovia), acting in its capacity as agent for the lenders. The Amended Agreement amends the terms of the Companys Loan and Security Agreement (the Loan Agreement) among the same parties dated June 24, 2005.
The Company entered into the Amended Agreement to remove the special reserve referenced in Section 1.127 of the Loan Agreement. The special reserve reduced by $50,000,000 the amount of loans or letters of credit that would otherwise be available to the Company under the lending formula in the Loan Agreement. Removing the special reserve will allow the Company greater access to borrowing base availability under the Loan Agreement. This summary does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Amended Agreement, included as Exhibit 99.1 to this filing and incorporated herein by reference to this Item 1.01.
Certain of the lenders party to the Amended Agreement, and their respective affiliates, have performed, and may in the future perform for the Company and its subsidiaries, various commercial banking, investment banking, underwriting and other financial advisory services, for which they have received, and will receive, customary fees and expenses.
