Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 18, 2008, ABX Holdings, Inc. (“ABX Holdings”), and ABX Air, Inc. (“ABX Air”) and CHI Acquisition Corp. (“Acquisition”), each a wholly-owned subsidiary of ABX Holdings, Inc. (“ABX Holdings”), entered into a First Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement dated December 31, 2007, among ABX Air, ABX Holdings and Acquisition, with SunTrust Bank as Administrative Agent, Regions Bank as Syndication Agent and the other lenders from time to time a party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”).

On January 14, 2008, ABX Air received from DPWN Holdings (USA), Inc. (“DHL”) a demand for repayment of the Note, dated August 15, 2003, in the original principal amount of $92,948,714, originally issued by ABX Air to Airborne, Inc. (now DHL) (the “DHL Note”). The Credit Agreement provided that such demand was not an Event of Default if and only if (1) the Escrow Agreement dated December 31, 2007, among ABX Holdings, ABX Air, certain former shareholders of Cargo Holdings International, Inc. (which was acquired by ABX Holdings on December 31, 2007) and Wells Fargo Bank as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agreement”) is in full force and effect at the time of such demand, (2) within five business days of receipt of DHL’s demand, $61 million is distributed to ABX Holdings or ABX Air pursuant to the Escrow Agreement and (3) 100% of such distribution is used to pay the DHL Note. The Amendment changed the five business day requirement for distribution of the $61 million to 15 business days, or such later date as may be reasonably agreed to by SunTrust Bank, the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement.

Summaries of the terms of the Credit Agreement and Escrow Agreement were included in, and copies of them were attached as exhibits to, the Current Report on Form 8-K of ABX Holdings dated December 31, 2007, and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 7, 2008. The foregoing summary of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.
