Item 1.01.  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On August 19, 2022, Culp, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a First Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Facility (the "First Amendment"), which amends the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of June 24, 2022, between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the "Credit Agreement").  The terms of the First Amendment amend the time period in which the financial covenant for the minimum ratio of consolidated EBITDA to consolidated net interest expense applies, such that this EBITDA to interest expense covenant does not apply during any of the four quarters of the Company's fiscal 2023.  During that period, the Company must maintain minimum "access to liquidity" of $15 million, which is defined as unencumbered liquid assets plus available and unused credit under the revolving credit facility as calculated using the borrowing base, all as defined in the Credit Agreement.
