  ITEM 1.01.  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
  On March 30, 2012, Parkway Properties, Inc. and certain subsidiaries (the "Company") entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement for its $190 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility with a consortium of eight banks with Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, as Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Book Runners; Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as Administrative Agent; Bank of America, N.A. as Syndication Agent; PNC Bank, National Association, Royal Bank of Canada, and KeyBank National Association as Documentation Agents; and other banks as participants including JPMorgan Chase Bank, N. A., Trustmark National Bank, and Seaside National Bank and Trust.  Additionally, the Company has amended its $10 million working capital revolving credit facility, which was provided solely by PNC Bank, N. A., under substantially the same terms and conditions, with the combined size of the facilities remaining at $200 million (collectively, the "New Facilities").
  The New Facilities provide for modifications to the existing facilities by, among other things, extending the maturity date from January 31, 2014 to March 29, 2016, with an additional one-year extension option with the payment of a fee, increasing the size of the accordion feature from $50 million to as much as $160 million, lowering applicable interest rate spreads and unused fees, and modifying certain other terms and financial covenants.
  The interest rate on the New Facilities is based on LIBOR plus 160 to 235 basis points, depending upon overall Company leverage (with the current rate set at 210 basis points which is equivalent to a total rate of 2.35% at March 30, 2012).  Additionally, the Company pays fees on the unused portion of the New Facilities ranging between 25 and 35 basis points based upon usage of the aggregate commitment (with the current rate set at 35 basis points).
  Financial covenants of the New Facilities require the Company to maintain its ratio of total debt to total asset value at 60% or less, its secured debt to total asset value at 50% or less and its ratio of secured recourse debt to total asset value at 10% or less.  Other debt covenants provide that the Company shall not fail to maintain (i) certain fixed charge coverage ratios, (ii) ratio of unencumbered adjusted net operating income to total unsecured debt and (iii) certain minimum tangible net worth.
  In addition, the Company may not pay dividends or make distributions with respect to its equity in excess of 90% of the Company's funds from operations, as defined, except to the extent necessary to enable Parkway Properties, Inc. to continue to qualify as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes.  These covenants and restrictions also limit the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness, grant liens on assets and enter into negative pledge agreements, merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of its assets and enter into transactions with affiliates.
  The New Facilities also include customary events of default, including, but not limited to, the failure to pay any interest or principal when due, the failure to perform covenants of the New Facilities, incorrect or misleading representations or warranties, certain cross defaults with outstanding recourse and nonrecourse indebtedness, insolvency or bankruptcy, change of control, the occurrence of certain ERISA events and certain judgment defaults.  The amounts outstanding under the New Facilities may be accelerated upon certain events of default.
  The forgoing description of the senior unsecured credit facility is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
