(the “Company”) entered into amendments to the Company’s Reimbursement and Credit Agreement, dated as of December 1, 2004, between the Company and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Bank and Administrative Agent (as previously amended, the “JPMorgan Agreement”), and the Company’s Credit Agreement, dated as of June 19, 2002, by and among TREX Company, LLC, the Company and Branch Banking and Trust Company of Virginia (as previously amended, the “BB&T Agreement” and, together with the JPMorgan Agreement, the “Agreements”). Among other things, the amendments, which were effective as of December 31, 2005, increased the principal amount of the revolving credit commitment under the BB&T Agreement for the period from January 1, 2006 through June 30, 2006 from $20 million to $30 million and increased by 1.0% the maximum interest rate margins potentially applicable to revolving loans and real estate loans under the BB&T Agreement. The amendments also added a new financial covenant under the Agreements for fiscal year 2005 and provided that specified financial covenants will not be measured for the last quarter of fiscal year 2005 and the first quarter of fiscal year 2006.
