Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On May 22, 2008, the Company entered into an amendment to its Credit Agreement dated July 28, 2005, with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and L/C Issuer; Citibank, N.A. and The Toronto Dominion Bank, as co-syndication agents; BNP Paribas and The Bank Of Nova Scotia, as co-documentation agents; Banc of America Securities LLC and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as joint lead arrangers and joint book managers; and the lenders party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”). The primary amendments to the Credit Agreement are (1) revising the limit imposed by the leverage ratio covenant and (2) removing accumulated other comprehensive income or loss in calculating the total capitalization component of the leverage ratio. Similar changes were subsequently made to the covenants in our accounts receivable securitization facility and other credit agreements.

In our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 29, 2008, we reported that we had $836 million in unused borrowing capacity under our committed credit agreements and accounts receivable securitization facility, but current covenant language in those agreements limited our effective unused borrowing capacity to $245 million. With the amendments described above, our reported unused borrowing capacity is no longer limited.

Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
