This 8-K/A provides crucial details to the previously announced amendment of the company's syndicated credit facility. While the original filing mentioned new restrictions, this amendment specifies a new requirement for $50 million in cash collateral if revolving credit extensions exceed $450 million. Additionally, it imposes a $150 million aggregate cap on certain investments and adds further requirements for incurring indebtedness, making restricted payments, and dispositions.
