Flow International Corporation hereby amends Items 1.01 and 9.01 of its Current Report on Form 8-K filed July 19, 2005 as set forth below:

 

ITEM 1.01. Entry Into A Material Definitive Agreement

 

Flow International Corporation announced that it has entered into a new three-year senior credit agreement with Bank of America N.A. and U.S. Bank N.A. The agreement provides for a revolving credit line of up to $30 million and is collateralized by a general lien on all of the Company’s assets. The new agreement replaces the Company’s short-term facility, which was due to expire on August 1, 2005, with the new facility, which expires July 8, 2008. The new agreement bears interest at the bank’s prime rate (5.50% at April 30, 2005) or is linked to LIBOR (2.6% at April 30, 2005) plus a percentage depending on the Company’s leverage ratios, at the Company’s option. The agreement sets forth specific financial covenants to be attained on a quarterly basis, based on funded debt, tangible net worth and liquidity ratios. The Company also pays an annual letter of credit fee equal to 2.5% of the amount available to be drawn under each outstanding letter of credit. The annual letter of credit fee is payable quarterly in arrears. The new agreement, similar to the prior agreements, includes a subjective acceleration clause which permits the lenders to deman payment in the event of a material adverse change.
