Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On December 1, 2011, Stoneridge, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit and Security Agreement (the "Amended Agreement") by and among the Company and certain of its subsidiaries as Borrowers, PNC Bank, National Association, as Agent, an Issuer and Lead Arranger, and PNC Bank, National Association, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Comerica Bank and Fifth Third Bank, as lenders.  The Amended Agreement extends the termination date of the Company's existing asset-based revolving credit facility to December 1, 2016 from November 1, 2012, increases the borrowing base by increasing the sublimit on eligible inventory located at Mexican facilities, and makes changes to certain covenants relating to, among other things, guarantees, investments, capital expenditures and permitted indebtedness.  Loans available to the Borrowers under the Amended Agreement are based on periodic borrowing base computations, and the outstanding principal amount may in no event exceed $100.0 million in the aggregate, which was not impacted by the amendment.  A press release announcing the Amended Agreement is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
