Item 1.01: Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

         On March 14, 2005, Headwaters announced that it was completing an
amendment to its senior secured credit facility. A copy of that press release
was attached as exhibit 99.1 to our Form 8-K filed on March 14, 2005. Headwaters
and the parties to the senior secured credit facility have now completed the
amendment which modifies, among others, the following provisions of our senior
credit agreements.

         o        Provides for a ratings-based grid on the 1st Lien Term Loan
                  that, based upon Headwaters current ratings by S&P/Moody's of
                  B1/B+, reduces the interest rate from 325 basis points over
                  LIBOR to 225 basis points over LIBOR.

         o        Increases in fiscal 2005 and 2006 the allowed capital
                  expenditures from $50 million to $62 million.

         o        Allows the prepayment of the 2nd Lien Term Loan using
                  Headwaters' cash flow after September 8, 2005, subject to the
                  contractual prepayment premium.

         o        Decreases the required amount of the floating-to-fixed hedge
                  from $300 million to $150 million.

         o        Provides for a one-year 1% prepayment premium on voluntary
                  prepayments of the 1st Lien Term Loan.

         The amendment is filed herewith as exhibit 10.93.

         (c)      Exhibits.

                  10.93 - Amendment No. 2 to the Credit Agreement among
