ITEM 1.01.   ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

As of March 15, 2007, Building Materials Corporation of America ("BMCA"), BMCA
Acquisition Inc. ("Parent"), and BMCA Acquisition Sub Inc. ("Purchaser") entered
into a Junior Lien Term Loan Agreement, which amended and restated in its
entirety the Bridge Loan Agreement dated as of February 22, 2007, with the
lenders named therein, as lenders; Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as
collateral agent and administrative agent; Deutsche Bank Securities, Inc., Bear
Stearns & Co. Inc., and J.P. Morgan Securities, Inc. as joint lead arrangers and
joint book managers; and Deutsche Bank AG Cayman Islands Branch, Bear Stearns
Corporate Lending Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities, Inc., as documentation agent,
and Bear Stearns & Co. Inc., as syndication agent (the credit facility created
thereby hereinafter referred to as the "Junior Lien Term Facility"). The amended
and restated material terms of the Junior Lien Term Facility are set forth
below.

The Junior Lien Term Facility will terminate on September 15, 2014 unless
earlier terminated due to default. All amounts owing under the Junior Lien Term
Facility will be secured by (i) a second priority perfected security interest in
substantially all of the assets and properties of BMCA and its domestic
subsidiaries other than the Revolving Facility Collateral, as defined below, and
(ii) a third priority perfected security interest in the receivables, inventory,
platinum and rhodium, deposit accounts and other current assets of BMCA and its
domestic subsidiaries and all proceeds thereof (the "Revolving Facility
Collateral"). No property or assets of ElkCorp or any of its subsidiaries will
be collateral for the Junior Lien Term Facility prior to the consummation of the
merger of Purchaser into ElkCorp. Loans under the Junior Lien Term Facility will
bear interest at a variable rate based either upon the Base Rate or Eurodollar
Rate, as defined in the Junior Lien Term Facility, at the borrower's option,
plus a specified margin in each case. These interest rates will be recalculated
periodically based on changes in the Base Rate and Eurodollar Rate, if
applicable. The Junior Lien Term Facility provides for optional and mandatory
prepayments of borrowings outstanding under the Junior Lien Term Facility,
subject to certain conditions.

Under the terms of the Junior Lien Term Facility, the borrowers are subject to a
leverage ratio financial covenant, as defined, which will need to be complied
with starting as of the end of BMCA's second fiscal quarter in 2008, and the
borrowers are no longer subject to an interest coverage ratio financial covenant
under the terms of the Junior Lien Term Facility. The borrowers are also
required to comply with other customary covenants, including with respect to
mandatory prepayment of loans, and restrictive covenants, including with respect
to incurring additional indebtedness or guarantees, creating liens or other
encumbrances, making capital expenditures, making restricted payments, including
dividends and distributions to BMCA's parent corporations and making certain
investments.

In addition, in the event of a change of control, as defined in the Junior Lien
Term Facility, the Junior Lien Term Facility could be terminated and the loans
thereunder accelerated by the holders of that indebtedness.

On March 13, 2007, BMCA, Parent and Purchaser, as borrowers, entered into
