ITEM 1.01         ENTRY INTO MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

         On February 28, 2005, GenTek Inc. (the "Company") entered into the
First Lien Credit and Guaranty Agreement (the "First Lien Agreement"), among
the Company, GenTek Holding, LLC, as borrower (the "Borrower"), the other
guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto from time to time, Goldman
Sachs Credit Partners L.P., as joint lead arranger, sole bookrunner, and as
syndication agent, Banc of America Securities LLC, as joint lead arranger,
General Electric Capital Corporation, as co-administrative agent, and Bank of
America, N.A., as co-administrative agent and collateral agent. The Borrower
is a wholly-owned direct subsidiary of the Company and was previously named
GenTek Holding Corporation. The Company and most of its domestic subsidiaries
are guarantors under the First Lien Agreement.

         The First Lien Agreement provides for a $60 million five-year
revolving loan facility and a six-year $235 million term loan. The term loan
is subject to amortization of $2.35 million per annum for five years, with the
remainder payable over the sixth year. Up to $40 million of the revolver is
available for issuance of letters of credit. Revolving loans became available
for general corporate purposes on February 28, 2005. Term loans are available,
subject to the satisfaction of customary borrowing conditions, under a single
draw on or before March 28, 2005. Loans may be used to (i) fund employee

proceeds of the term loans; (ii) repay or retire existing indebtedness; (iii)
make payments or dividends with respect to the special dividend (described
below); (iv) be applied to general corporate purposes and (iv) pay transaction
costs. The loan facilities are secured by a first lien on substantially all of
the personal property of the Borrower, the Company and the other guarantors
(collectively the "Loan Parties") and certain real property of the Loan
Parties.

         On February 28, 2005, the Company also entered into the Second Lien
Credit and Guaranty Agreement (the "Second Lien Agreement") among, the
Company, the Borrower, the other guarantors party thereto, the lenders party
thereto from time to time, Goldman Sachs Credit Partners L.P., as joint lead
arranger, sole bookrunner, syndication agent, administrative agent and as
collateral agent, Banc of America Securities LLC, as joint lead arranger and
Bank of America, N.A. as documentation agent. The Company and most of its
domestic subsidiaries are guarantors under the Second Lien Agreement.

         The Second Lien Agreement provides for a seven-year $135 million term
loan to be made, subject to the satisfaction of customary borrowing
conditions, under a single draw on or before March 28, 2005. Loans may be used
to (i) fund employee pension liability in an aggregate amount not less than
$35,000,000 with the proceeds of the term loans; (ii) repay or retire existing
indebtedness; (iii) make payments or dividends with respect to the special
dividend (described below); (iv) be applied to general corporate purposes and
(iv) pay transaction costs. There is no amortization during the term of the
loan. The loan facilities are secured by a second lien on substantially all of
the personal property of the Loan Parties and certain real property of the
Loan Parties.

         All loans under the First Lien Agreement and Second Lien Agreement
may be accelerated upon customary events of default.
