Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On February 2, 2011, The ServiceMaster Company (the “Company”) entered into an amendment to its syndicated revolving credit agreement in which Citibank, N.A., serves as administrative agent and collateral agent, and which facility provides for senior secured revolving loans and stand-by and other letters of credit.  Prior to the amendment, the facility was scheduled to mature on July 24, 2013 and provided for maximum borrowing capacity of $500 million with outstanding letters of credit limited to $75 million.  The Company desired to extend the maturity date of the facility by one year, and as inducement to such extension offered to allow any lenders in the syndicate group that were willing to extend the maturity date by one year, a 20 percent reduction of such lender’s loan commitment.  As a result of the amendment, the Company will have available borrowing capacity under its amended revolving credit facility of approximately $442 million through July 24, 2013 and will have approximately $229 million of available borrowing capacity from July 25, 2013 through July 24, 2014.  The Company will continue to have access to letters of credit up to $75 million through July 24, 2014.
