Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On April 28, 2011, Union Drilling, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K announcing that on April 27, 2011, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (the “Agreement”) with PNC Bank, National Association, acting as lender, and as agent to the other lenders specified in the Agreement, and PNC Capital Markets LLC, as lead arranger. As previously reported, the Agreement contained a provision by which the Total Commitment Amount could be increased from the initial amount of $125 million up to $150 million, and additional lenders could join the lending group after the execution date of the Agreement.

On August 1, 2011, CIT Bank became a $35 million participating lender under the Agreement. CIT Bank signed an Additional Lender Certificate as contemplated in the Agreement and thus became bound to its terms. As a result of CIT Bank joining the lending group, PNC Bank’s Commitment Amount reduced from $60 million to $50 million. With the addition of CIT Bank as a new lender, the Total Commitment Amount now available to the Company under the Agreement is $150 million.

Unless otherwise defined above, capitalized terms have the meaning as set forth in the Agreement.

 

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

The information set forth in Item 1.01 is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.
