CUSIP NO. 148411101
 
The following constitutes Amendment No. 6 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (“Amendment No. 6”).  This Amendment No. 6 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.
 
Item 6.
Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
 
Item 6 is hereby amended to add the following:
 
Amendment to Transaction Support Agreement
 
On January 29, 2016, the Issuer entered into amendments (the “TSA Amendments”) to the previously disclosed Transaction Support Agreements with certain holders, including Raging Master, of the Issuer’s 12.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2016 (the “Existing Notes”) which provide for the terms of certain refinancing actions of the Issuer, including a private exchange offer and consent solicitation to certain eligible holders to exchange new 12.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2018 (the “New Notes”) for their Existing Notes (the “Exchange Offer”).  The TSA Amendments provide, among other things, that the indenture governing the New Notes will contain an additional covenant for the benefit of, and which does not adversely affect the legal rights of, holders of the New Notes that, following consummation of the Exchange Offer and the issuance of the New Notes, the Issuer shall not repay, redeem, prepay, retire, defease or otherwise satisfy the Existing Notes using, directly or indirectly, more than $10.0 million of borrowings under its senior secured credit facility (or any indebtedness that is secured by a lien that ranks higher in priority than the liens securing the New Notes and the guarantees thereof).
 
The foregoing description of the terms of the TSA Amendments is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Form of TSA Amendment, which is referenced as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
 
Item 7.
Material to be Filed as Exhibits.
 
Item 7 is hereby amended to add the following exhibit:
 
 
99.1
Form of First Amendment to Transaction Support Agreement (incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 10.3 to the Form 8-K filed by A. M. Castle & Co. on February 3, 2016).
