Item 1.01.                       Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On June 30, 2016, Intrepid Potash, Inc. (“Intrepid,” “we,” or “our”) entered into a Third Waiver to Note Purchase Agreement (the “NPA Waiver”) with each of the purchasers named therein (the “Noteholders”).  The NPA Waiver relates to the Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 28, 2012, and amended as of January 15, 2016 (the “NPA”), by and among Intrepid and the Noteholders.

 

Under the NPA Waiver, the Noteholders are waiving until July 15, 2016, the requirement that we comply with the financial covenants under the NPA relating to our leverage ratio and fixed charge coverage ratio for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 (and agreed that any noncompliance with these covenants for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, will not constitute a default or event of default under the NPA until July 15, 2016).

 

Except as amended by the NPA Waiver, the terms of the NPA remain unchanged.

 

The description set forth above is qualified in its entirety by the NPA Waiver, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.
