Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 1, 2007, Interstate Bakeries Corporation (the “Company”) entered into the First Amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement (the “DIP Agreement”), dated as of February 16, 2007, among the Company, each of the direct and indirect subsidiaries of the Company (collectively, the “Borrowers”), JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMCB”) and each of the other commercial banks, finance companies, insurance companies or other financial institutions or funds from time to time party thereto (together with JPMCB, the “Lenders”) and JPMCB, as administrative agent and collateral agent for the Lenders.

The First Amendment amended the DIP Agreement in order to, among other things:

(i) change the borrowing base formula, which, in effect, reduces the amount available to the Borrowers by $10 million; provided, however, that the $10 million reduction shall be restored upon (x) the entry of a final order by the bankruptcy court approving a disclosure statement filed by the Borrowers with respect to a plan of reorganization that provides for repayment in full of the Borrowers’ obligations under the DIP Agreement and (y) receipt by the Borrowers of a binding commitment for exit financing necessary to consummate such plan of reorganization;

(ii) add a covenant requiring that the Borrowers deliver to JPMCB, as Administrative Agent, and the Lenders, on or before December 1, 2007, a revised plan which details the Borrowers’ proposed strategy for maximizing the value of their estates, including, without limitation, through a sale of the Borrowers and/or their assets in their entirety, or in a series of transactions, and cash flows resulting from such transactions, if the Borrowers have not previously publicly announced an agreement in principle with both the Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers International Union (“BCTGM”) and the International Brotherhood of Teamsters (“IBT”), in each case regarding modifications to the existing collective bargaining agreements with BCTGM and IBT, respectively, which provide for union alignment to a more capable and more cost-effective path-to-market, certain health and welfare concessions, and increased work rule flexibility; and

(iii) change the cash restructuring covenant to allow the Borrowers to incur cash restructuring charges in an amount not to exceed $23,000,000, which amount is sufficient to provide for the estimated cash restructuring charges incurred in connection with the Southern California consolidation as previously reported in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on August 29, 2007, and the organizational realignment, as previously reported in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on September 13, 2007.

The foregoing description of the First Amendment is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the First Amendment attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
