Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 12, 2006, Circor International, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into Amendment No. 1 to Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”), amending the original Credit Agreement dated as of December 20, 2005, by and among the Company, as Borrower; certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company, as Subsidiary Guarantors; the Lenders party thereto; KeyBank National Association, as Administrative Agent; and Bank of America, NA, as Syndication Agent. The primary purpose of the Amendment was to increase the maximum amount of the revolving commitment from $95 million to $125 million and to increase the letter of credit commitment amount from $20 million to $40 million. The Amendment also amends the covenants of the Credit Agreement to allow the Company to incur up to $80 million of additional indebtedness beyond amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreement. The original agreement limited such additional indebtedness to $10 million. Other material terms and conditions of the original Credit Agreement remain unchanged. As of the date of this current report, there was a total of $64.6 million of loans outstanding under the revolving credit facility and approximately an additional $19.4 million outstanding under letters of credit.
