Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On May 18, 2006, CHS Inc. renewed and expanded its committed lines of credit pursuant to a 2006 Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement. The previously established credit lines consisted of a $700.0 million 364-day revolver and a $300.0 million five-year revolver. The new committed credit facility consists of a five-year revolver in the amount of $1.1 billion. The other terms of the new credit facility are the same in all material respects as the terms of the credit facilities that it replaced. In addition, an existing term loan was amended on May 18, 2006, so that the covenants would be consistent with the new revolving facility. Both agreements will be filed with the Company's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended May 31, 2006.
