Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

As previously disclosed, on September 2, 2010, Papa John’s International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into an unsecured $175 million, five-year revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), among the Company, each of its subsidiary guarantors named in the Revolving Credit Facility, RSC Insurance Services, Ltd., the lenders party thereto, PNC Bank, National Association, in its capacity as administrative agent for the lenders, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., in its capacity as syndication agent for the lenders, and Bank of America, N.A., Fifth Third Bank and U.S. Bank, National Association, each in its capacity as co-documentation agent for the lenders. On November 30, 2011, the Company and the lenders party to the Revolving Credit Facility entered into the First Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”).  The Amendment, among other things, extended the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility from September 2, 2015 to November 30, 2016.  The Amendment also lowered the variable pricing and fees based on the leverage ratio, as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility, so that as amended, interest rates under the Revolving Credit Facility vary based upon LIBOR (as defined in the facility) plus 75 to 150 basis points, or other rates at the Company’s option, subject to the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility.

The foregoing description of the Amendment is intended to be a summary, is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, which is attached to this report as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
