Item 1.01.                            Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 28, 2007, Continental Materials Corporation (the “Company”) entered into the Fifth Amendment to Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement (the “Amendment”), which amended the Company’s existing Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement dated September 5, 2003, as amended as of May 29, 2004, April 14, 2005, June 28, 2005 and June 8, 2006 (the “Loan Agreement”) with LaSalle Bank National Association and Fifth Third Bank (the “Lenders”). The Amendment waived compliance with the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, as defined in the Loan Agreement, for the 2006 year-end and the first quarter of 2007 and established certain Fixed Charge Coverage Ratios to be met beginning as of the four quarters ended June 30, 2007. The Company expects to be in compliance with the new ratios.

The Loan Agreement provides that, at the Company’s option, the term loan and revolving credit facility will bear interest at prime or a performance-based LIBOR rate. Based on the terms of the Amendment and the Company’s performance for the twelve month period ended March 30, 2007, the performance based rates would be LIBOR plus 1.50% for the term loan and LIBOR plus 1.25% for borrowings under the revolving credit facility. Payment of accrued interest is due and payable quarterly by the Company. Payments of principal under the term loan are payable on a quarterly basis with a final payment of all remaining unpaid principal due March 31, 2011.

The Loan Agreement requires the Company to maintain certain levels of consolidated tangible net worth, to attain certain levels of cash flow on a rolling four-quarter basis, and to maintain certain ratios including consolidated debt to cash flow. Additional borrowings, acquisition of stock of other companies, repurchases of Company stock and payment of cash dividends are either limited or require prior approval by the Lenders. The Loan Agreement also includes customary events of default such as payment defaults, cross-defaults to other indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency, and a change in control, the occurrence of which could cause all amounts under the Credit Agreement to become immediately due and payable.

In connection with the Amendment, each guarantor under the Loan Agreement (certain of the Company’s subsidiaries) consented to the terms of the Amendment and agreed that the terms of the Amendment shall not affect its obligations and liabilities under any loan document.

All other material terms of the Loan Agreement remain in force, except to the extent they have been modified by the Amendment. The foregoing discussion is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.03.                                    Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

The disclosure set forth above under Item 1.01 is incorporated herein by reference.
