Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
          As of December 7, 2010, RTI International Metals, Inc. (“RTI” or the “Company”) and certain of the lender parties under the Company’s First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, as amended (the “Credit Facility”) have executed a Third Amendment to the Credit Facility (the “Amendment”). The Company has announced that it intends to offer, subject to market and other conditions, approximately $175 million principal amount of convertible senior notes due 2015 in an offering registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Proposed Offering”). Conditions precedent to the Amendment include the Company’s consummation of the Proposed Offering.
          Pursuant to the Amendment, which is being effected simultaneously with the Proposed Offering, the Credit Facility is being reduced from $225 million to $150 million. Four domestic subsidiaries of RTI which are no longer “Material Subsidiaries,” as defined in the Credit Facility, are being released as guarantors of the Credit Facility. In addition, the definition of Consolidated EBITDA which is applicable to calculation of certain financial covenants has been revised in order to (i) exclude the LIFO valuation methodology in connection with non-cash charges, and (ii) modify the time period for which RTI may include up to $25 million of restructuring and acquisition charges in the EBITDA calculation.
