Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 8, 2010, Core Molding Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") and its affiliate, Corecomposites de Mexico, S. DE R.L. DE C.V., entered into a fourth amendment (the "Fourth Amendment") to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of December 9, 2008, with KeyBank National Association as a lender, lead arranger, sole book runner and administrative agent (the "Credit Agreement"). Pursuant to the terms of the Fourth Amendment, the parties agreed to modify certain terms of the Credit Agreement. These modifications included (1) modification of the definition EBITDA to add back transition costs of up to $2,000,000 associated with the relocation of certain products from the Company's Columbus, Ohio facility to its Matamoros, Mexico facility; (2) modification to the fixed charge definition to exclude capital expenditures of up to $2,000,000 associated with the relocation of certain products from the Company's Columbus, Ohio facility to its Matamoros, Mexico facility; (3) retroactively modified the amortization schedule of the Mexican loan to forgo the principal payment due January 31, 2010 of $1,600,000 as a result of the Company limiting its borrowing to $6,400,000 instead of the full amount of the loan contemplated ($8,000,000); and (4) consent to transfer certain assets of the Company from Columbus, Ohio to Matamoros, Mexico.
