Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Amendment to Working Capital Revolver Loan

On February 13, 2014, LSB Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) and each of the Company’s subsidiaries signatory thereto, entered into the Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the “Amendment”), with the lenders identified on the signature pages thereof and Wells Fargo Capital Finance, LLC (“Wells Fargo”), as the arranger and administrative agent. The Amendment, which is dated effective as of December 31, 2013, amends and restates the Company’s existing $100 million working capital revolver (the “Working Capital Revolver”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Amendment, the Company and all of the Company’s subsidiaries, other than Zena Energy LLC, including those that were previously guarantors of the Working Capital Revolver, are now borrowers under the Working Capital Revolver. The Amendment also provides that (a) if the excess borrowing availability is less than or equal to 12.5% of the total commitment of $100 million, then the borrowers must maintain a monthly fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.10:1.00, on a trailing 12 month basis; (b) certain assets of the Company’s subsidiary, El Dorado Nitrogen, L.P. are excluded as collateral; and (c) the Company may form and make certain investments in subsidiaries that are not borrowers under the Working Capital Revolver.

The Working Capital Revolver continues to provide that (a) advances are based on specified percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventories (b) up to $15 million of letters of credit, the outstanding amount of which reduces availability under the Working Capital Revolver Loan, and (c) the maturity date is April 13, 2018.
