Item 1.01.    Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On May 14, 2012, Post Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into a First Amendment and Waiver to Credit Agreement (the “Waiver”), with respect to the Credit Agreement dated as of February 3, 2012, by and among the Company, Barclays Bank PLC, in its capacity as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”), the several banks and other institutions from time to time parties thereto (the “Lenders”), and Post Foods, LLC, as guarantor (the “Credit Agreement”). Defined terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement. 
As previously reported, the Company will restate its combined financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011 included in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form 10, and the combined financial statements for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2011 included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2011 (the “Restated Financial Statements”).
Pursuant to the Waiver, the Required Lenders have agreed to waive any Default or Event of Default arising from any representation or warranty made by the Company relating to the originally delivered financial statements for the Company’s fiscal year ended September 30, 2011 and fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2011 (solely to the extent that such default may have arisen or may arise as a result of the errors in the financial statements required to be delivered for such periods) or arising from failure to deliver any notice of a Default; provided that the Waiver shall cease to apply if the Restated Financial Statements are not delivered to the Administrative Agent on or prior to June 14, 2012.  The Waiver also amends the required time period for delivery of the Company’s financial statements for the Company’s second quarter of fiscal 2012 from 45 days after the end of the period to 75 days after the end of the period.
The summary of the provisions of the Waiver is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated herein by reference. In all other respects, the Credit Agreement remains unmodified and in full force and effect.
