On July 25, 2014, the Company, and certain of our subsidiaries, entered into an amendment (the “July 25th Amendment”) with the lenders signatory thereto and PNC, as agent for such lenders, to our Amended and Restated Revolving Credit, Term Loan and Security Agreement (“Amended Loan Agreement”). The July 25th Amendment added the Company’s subsidiary, Perma-Fix of Canada, Inc., as a guarantor to the Amended Loan Agreement but did not alter the Company’s financial obligations thereunder.

The release of the insurance settlement proceeds will allow the Company to use $2,350,000 for working capital purposes, and PNC will retain a hold on the remaining $1,500,000 of such proceeds for up to the remainder of the term of the Amended Loan Agreement. All other terms of the Amended Loan Agreement remain principally unchanged.
