ITEM 1.01. ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITVE AGREEMENT.
AMENDMENT TO CREDIT FACILITY
On June 4, 2007, Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a third amendment to its credit agreement with a syndicate of lending banks, Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer, Citibank, N.A., successor by merger to Citibank, FSB, as Syndication Agent and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas and Royal Bank of Canada, as Co-Documentation Agents.
The amendment modified certain financial and negative covenants. In particular, the amendment:
*   replaces the maximum senior leverage ratio that the Company is permitted to have with a maximum senior secured leverage ratio,
*   permits a certain amount of cash on the Company’s balance sheet to be subtracted from outstanding debt for the purpose of calculating both the maximum consolidated total leverage ratio and the maximum consolidated senior secured leverage ratio that the Company is permitted to have,
*   permits the Company to issue up to $360 million of senior convertible notes, up to $200 million of which may have a 3-year maturity,
*   permits the Company to repurchase up to $125 million of equity in conjunction with the proceeds of the senior convertible notes that the Company plans to issue,
*   permits the Company to repay the convertible notes with the 3-year maturity that the Company plans to issue if either a liquidity ratio or total leverage ratio test is met,
*   reduces the basket for senior unsecured debt from $50 million to $25 million,
*   permits transfers of foreign subsidiaries of the Company to both domestic subsidiaries and foreign subsidiaries,
*   provides that all financial covenant ratios be performed on a pro-forma basis, and
*   permits cash payment for fractional shares issuable upon conversion of convertible notes without using the restricted payments basket.
A copy of the amendment is attached as Exhibit 4.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference into this Item.
