Item 1.01.    Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
 
On December 22, 2011, Potlatch Corporation (the "Company") entered into the Third Amendment to Credit Agreement (the "Third Amendment") that amends the Credit Agreement, dated December 8, 2008, by and among the Company, Potlatch Forest Holdings, Inc., Potlatch Land & Lumber, LLC, certain wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company as Guarantors, the Lenders from time to time party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent for the Lenders (as amended by the First Amendment dated November 19, 2009, and the Second amendment dated February 4, 2011, the "Credit Agreement"). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Current Report on Form 8-K shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement.

The Third Amendment reduces the minimum required Interest Coverage Ratio from 3.00 to 1.00 to 2.00 to 1.00, adds a Minimum Liquidity requirement of $60,000,000 and eliminates the ability of the Company to incur additional secured indebtedness without the Lenders' consent.

The above description of the Third Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete terms of the Third Amendment, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
