ITEM 1.01.  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On August 2, 2011, Con-way Inc. (“Con-way”) entered into an amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement dated as of November 4, 2010 (“Revolving Facility”) with certain of its subsidiaries, each of the lenders named therein and PNC Bank, National Association, as administrative agent for the lenders.

The First Amendment extends by approximately 21 months the term of the Revolving Facility by changing the “Termination Date” (as defined therein) from November 14, 2014 to August 2, 2016.  The First Amendment also lowers Con-way’s cost of borrowing by amending the pricing grid to reduce the cost of utilizing the Revolving Facility. The availability provided to Con-way under the Revolving Facility is unchanged by the First Amendment, and remains $325 million.

The Revolving Facility continues to be guaranteed by certain of Con-way's material domestic subsidiaries pursuant to a Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement. The First Amendment amends that Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement to reflect certain clarifying changes.

 
The foregoing description of the First Amendment does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the First Amendment, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
 
ITEM 8.01  OTHER EVENTS
 
Also on August 2, 2011, Con-way issued a press release announcing that it had entered into the First Amendment.  A copy of the press release is filed with this report as Exhibit 99.1.
