increasing the aggregate consideration that may be paid for the repurchase of U.S. Concrete’s common stock and 8 3/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014, from $20 million, to an aggregate of $30 million, so long as U.S. Concrete has the available credit under the revolving credit agreement, after giving effect to such repurchase, of at least $50,000,000 (an increase from $40,000,000 before the amendment).

Otherwise, the principal terms of the credit agreement were not amended.
