Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On May 10, 2011, HealthSouth Corporation (the “Company”) amended and restated in its entirety the existing amended and restated credit agreement, dated October 26, 2010, as supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time (the “2011 Credit Agreement”). The parties to the 2011 Credit Agreement are the Company, Barclays Bank PLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent (the “Agent”), Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as syndication agent, Bank of America, N.A., Goldman Sachs Lending Partners LLC, and Morgan Stanley & Co., as co-documentation agents, and various other lenders from time to time.

Below is a summary of the material provisions of the 2011 Credit Agreement that changed as a result of this amendment and restatement:

1)  
creates, under the pre-existing accordion feature, a $100 million term loan with an initial interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.5%, maturing in May 2016 and continues to permit future increases in revolving borrowing capacity or new term loans, or both, in an aggregate amount not to exceed $200 million;
 
2)  
reduces by 1.00% each of the various applicable interest rates for any outstanding balance on the revolving credit facility, depending on the Leverage Ratio (as defined in the 2011 Credit Agreement) during a given interest rate period; and
 
3)  
resets the maturity date for the existing revolving credit facility from October 2015 to May 2016.
 
All other material terms of the existing credit agreement remain the same and are described in more detail in the Current Reports on Form 8-K and 8-K/A previously filed on November 1, 2010 and November 23, 2010, respectively. The 2011 Credit Agreement continues to provide for a senior secured revolving credit facility of up to $500 million with a new current interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.5%, including a $260 million letter of credit subfacility. As of May 10, 2011, no amounts were drawn on the revolving credit facility, and $48.1 million were drawn on the letter of credit subfacility. The new term loan will amortize quarterly at a per annum rate of 5% through June 30, 2013, then at 7.5% through June 30, 2014, and then at 10% through March 31, 2016.

The Company’s obligations under the 2011 Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiary guarantors and guaranteed by those subsidiary guarantors pursuant to the amended and restated collateral and guarantee agreement (the “Collateral and Guarantee Agreement”), dated as of October 26, 2010, among the Agent, the Company, and its subsidiaries identified therein that was previously filed as Exhibit 10.3 to the Current Report on Form 8-K/A on November 23, 2010.
 
The descriptions of the provisions of the Collateral and Guarantee Agreement and the 2011 Credit Agreement are summary in nature and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full and complete terms of the definitive agreements. A copy of the 2011 Credit Agreement is expected to be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s next Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. When filed, that Form 10-Q will also be available on the Company’s website at http://investor.healthsouth.com under SEC filings.

Some of the lenders under the 2011 Credit Agreement and certain of their affiliates have engaged and in the future may engage in investment banking transactions, including securities offerings, and in general financing and commercial banking transactions with, and the provision of services to, us and our affiliates in the ordinary course of business and otherwise for which they have received, and will in the future receive, customary fees.
