Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement Effective February 7, 2007, Channell Bushman Pty Ltd and its controlled entities (collectively referred to as Channell Bushman Group), which are subsidiaries of Channell Commercial Corporation (Channell Commercial), entered into a new Loan and Security Agreement (the Loan and Security Agreement) with National Australia Bank Limited (NAB) that amended and superseded the previous Loan and Security Agreement between Channell Bushman Group and NAB (the Previous Agreement). The Loan and Security Agreement extends the expiration date of the revolving credit facility and the master asset finance agreement facility from January 2007 until April 2007, but otherwise generally contains the same borrowing limits and other material terms and provisions as the Previous Agreement. The Loan and Security Agreement includes the following facilities: a term loan that expires in July 2009; a revolving credit facility with maximum borrowings of AUD$3,200,000 that expires in April 2007; a facility to fund future earn-out payments to the sellers of Bushman Tanks that expires in July 2008; a capital expenditure facility that expires in July 2008; and a master asset finance agreement facility that expires in April 2007. The loans under the Loan and Security Agreement are secured by all the assets of Channell Bushman Group. The Loan and Security Agreement contains various operating covenants that impose limitations on Channell Bushman Groups ability, among other things, to merge or consolidate, sell assets except in the ordinary course of business, and pay dividends. In addition, Channell Bushman Group is required to comply with certain financial covenants relating to sales, gross profit and operating profit, and if such covenants are not met, NAB, at its discretion, may terminate the Loan and Security Agreement. The Loan and Security Agreement also provides that the bank will seek additional support from Channell Commercial if there is further deterioration and contains a subjective acceleration clause should Channell Bushman Group come into a default, which allows the bank to terminate the Loan and Security Agreement and require any outstanding obligations to be repaid. The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement, a copy of which is filed hereto as Exhibit 10.1. Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits (d) Exhibits
