ITEM 1.01     Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

     On August 31, 2006, Birner Dental Management Services, Inc. (the "Company")
and KeyBank National Association ("KeyBank") entered into a Fourth Amendment to
the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. This amendment related to a $5
million five year fixed rate term loan (the "Loan"). In connection therewith,
the Company executed a $5,000,000 Term Loan Note.

     The Company also executed a $7,000,000 Fourth Amended and Restated
Revolving Credit Note relating to  the Company's existing  credit facility. The
Fourth Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note amended the previous note as
necessary to accommodate the Loan. The Company  and KeyBank also entered into a
Third Amended and Restated Security Agreement. The Third Amended and Restated
Security Agreement amended the security agreement as necessary to secure the
Loan. The Loan is secured by the Company's management agreements.

     Although the above described loan agreements were entered into on August
31, 2006, the Company is not obligated to draw on the Loan and has not done so.
The Company intends to use the proceeds of the  Loan to finance the purchase of
shares of the Company's common stock pursuant to its recently announced tender
offer. The Company does not intend to draw on the Loan if the tender offer is
not consummated.

     The interest rate will be fixed at the time the loan is funded, if at all.
The interest rate will be either, or a combination of, a fixed rate, KeyBank's
Base Rate or LIBOR plus a LIBOR rate margin, at the Company's option. KeyBank's
Base Rate computes interest at the higher of their "prime rate" or the Federal
Funds Rate plus one-half percent (0.5%). The LIBOR option computes interest at
the LIBOR rate as of the date such LIBOR Rate loan was made plus a LIBOR rate
margin of 1.50%. The Company may prepay any fixed rate or Base Rate loan at any
time and any LIBOR rate loan upon not less than three business days prior
written notice given to KeyBank, but the Company will be responsible for any
loss or cost incurred by KeyBank in liquidating or employing deposits required
to fund or maintain the LIBOR rate loan. The Loan will amortize quarterly over
five years. The Loan requires the Company to maintain certain financial ratios
on an ongoing basis. As of June 30, 2006, the Company was in compliance with
these financial ratios.
