ITEM 1.01             ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

On February 28, 2007, TOR Minerals International, Inc. (the "Company") amended its current loan agreement with Bank of America (the "Bank").  Under the terms of the amendment, the Bank revised the basis for determining the "Borrowing Base" and "Eligible Inventory" to the following:

"Borrowing Base" means the sum of 80% of Borrower's Eligible Accounts Receivable plus the lesser of (x) 50% of Borrower's Eligible Inventory or (y) $3,500,000.

"Eligible Inventory" for purposes of determining the borrowing base under the Company's line of credit with the Bank with the effect that the amendment expands the definition of Eligible Inventory to now permit Synthetic Rutile to be included in the borrowing base for ascertaining the amount of permitted borrowings by the Company, provided that it has been purchased by the Company and is in transit from TOR Minerals Malaysia, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, to the Company's facility at Corpus Christi, Texas, is fully insured on terms acceptable to the lender and is evidenced by bills of lading and other documents acceptable to the Bank.  The value of all Qualified Synthetic Rutile shall not exceed $3,000,000 for purposes of this calculation.
