ITEM 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

MasTec, Inc., a Florida corporation (“MasTec”), has commenced an offer to exchange (i) up to $115.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.00% Senior Convertible Notes due 2014 (the “New 4.00% Notes”), for a like principal amount of its outstanding 4.00% Senior Convertible Notes due 2014 (the “Original 4.00% Notes”), plus an exchange fee of $2.50 per $1,000 in principal amount of Original 4.00% Notes validly tendered and accepted in the exchange offer and (ii) up to $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.25% Senior Convertible Notes due 2014 (the “New 4.25% Notes” and together with the New 4.00% Notes, the “New Notes”), for a like principal amount of its outstanding 4.25% Senior Convertible Notes due 2014 (the “Original 4.25% Notes” and together with the Original 4.00% Notes, the “Original Notes”), plus an exchange fee of $2.50 per $1,000 in principal amount of Original 4.25% Notes validly tendered and accepted in the exchange offer (the foregoing offers, the “Exchange Offer”).

The terms of the New Notes will be substantially identical to the Original Notes, except for certain features primarily related to the conversion of the New Notes as described in the prospectus (the “Prospectus”) contained in MasTec’s Registration Statement on Form S-4 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on November 24, 2010, including a net settlement feature which provides that, upon conversion of the New Notes, MasTec will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of MasTec’s common stock or a combination thereof, and conditional conversion features which provide that the New Notes may be converted upon certain specified conditions among other differences all as described in the Prospectus.

In connection with the Exchange Offer, on November 24, 2010, MasTec entered into an amendment (the “Letter Amendment”) to its Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, dated July 29, 2008, as amended (the “Credit Facility”), with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent for the lenders thereunder, pursuant to which the lenders thereunder consented to the Exchange Offer and the issuance of the New Notes in connection with the Exchange Offer, subject to, among other things, the condition that, prior to the expiration of the Credit Facility in May 2013, MasTec may not use more than $10.0 million in the aggregate from cash on hand to defease, redeem or settle conversions of the New Notes, without the prior consent of the lenders under the Credit Facility.

The foregoing description of the Letter Amendment is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Letter Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

A registration statement relating to the Exchange Offer and the New Notes has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission but has not yet become effective. The New Notes may not be sold nor may offers to buy be accepted prior to the time the registration statement becomes effective. This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the New Notes in any State in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such State.
