Section 1 – Registrant’s Business and Operations

Item 1.01.                      Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 22, 2010, Gentiva Health Services, Inc. (the “Company”) and Lehman Commercial Paper Inc. ( in its capacity as administrative agent, the “Administrative Agent”) entered into a third amendment (the “Credit Agreement Amendment”) of that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of February 28, 2006, by and among the Company, the Administrative Agent, the lenders from time to time party thereto and Lehman Brothers Inc., as sole lead arranger (such agreement, as it had been amended prior to the execution of the Credit Agreement Amendment, the “Credit Agreement”).  Prior to the execution of the Credit Agreement Amendment, the Credit Agreement provided for senior secured credit facilities consisting of (i) a term loan and (ii) a revolving credit facility of $96.5 million, of which $55 million was available for the issuance of letters of credit and $10 million for swing line loans.
 
Lehman Commercial Paper, Inc. (“LCPI”) had been a participating lender under the Credit Agreement and its bankruptcy filing in September 2008 had, as a practical matter, eliminated the Company’s access to LCPI’s pro rata share of the unused revolving credit facility and to the facility’s swing line loan feature.  The Credit Agreement Amendment formally removed LCPI as a participating lender and, as a result, the revolving credit facility under the Credit Agreement was reduced to $80.0 million and the facility’s swing line loan feature was eliminated.  
 
The Credit Agreement Amendment, among other things, also increased the amount of permitted acquisitions that the Company is allowed to make on a prospective basis to $200 million in the aggregate from the effective date of the Credit Agreement Amendment to the end of the term of the Credit Agreement.
