Item 1.01    Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On February 28, 2019, BlueLinx Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) amended its existing term loan facility (the “Facility”) by entering into that certain Second Amendment to Credit and Guaranty Agreement (the “Amendment”), by and among the Company, as borrower, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries, as guarantors, HPS Investment Partners, LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the other financial institutions party thereto, as lenders (the “Lenders”).

Pursuant to the Amendment:

the Company will be permitted to enter into up to $50 million in real estate sale leaseback transactions prior to the nine-month anniversary of the date of the Amendment, with the first $30 million in net proceeds therefrom to be used for repayment of indebtedness under the Facility, and the remaining net proceeds to be used to repay indebtedness under the Company’s revolving credit facility;

the parties agreed that repayment of indebtedness from net proceeds of the sale leaseback transactions described above made prior to the deadline for delivery of the Company’s first and second quarter 2019 financial statements to the Lenders would be deemed to have been made as of the end of the Company’s fiscal first and second quarters, respectively;

the parties increased the Total Net Leverage Ratio beginning in the first quarter of 2019, and modified the subsequent quarterly reductions in the covenant level over the term of the Facility; and

the parties modified the “Prepayment Premium” and related breakage costs applicable to certain prepayments of the Facility to extend until the fourth anniversary of the date of the Amendment, and to exclude from the “Applicable Make-Whole Amount” any prepayments made after the first anniversary of the date of the Facility from the proceeds of the sale of “Specified Properties” (as such terms are defined under the Facility).

The foregoing description of the material terms of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 7.01    Regulation FD Disclosure.
