Item 1.01.     Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 26, 2007, The Huntington National Bank ("Huntington) and Clarion Technologies, Inc. ("Clarion") entered into a Loan Agreement ("Loan Agreement"). Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, Huntington loaned Clarion an aggregate $7,000,000 ("Loan"), the principal of which Loan is due and payable on April 15, 2009. Proceeds of the Loan are to be used for working capital purposes. On July 26, 2007, a portion of the proceeds were used to pay off JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A.'s outstanding loan to Clarion. The Loan is secured by a lien on all of Clarion's assets and is guaranteed (the "Guaranties") by certain guarantors (the "Guarantors"). As consideration for the Guaranties, the Guarantors (a) on July 26, 2007, converted $2,000,000 of the Class B Convertible Preferred Stock of Clarion held by them to $2,000,000 of senior subordinated debt, joining William Blair Mezzanine Capital Fund III, L.P. et al. as senior subordinated lenders to Clarion, (b) converted 500,000 shares of Class B Convertible Preferred Stock of Clarion held by them to 5,000 Class A Convertible Preferred Stock of Clarion and (c) acquired the right, upon Huntington's potential draw on the Guaranties, to convert $5,000,000 of Class A Convertible Preferred Stock of Clarion into $5,000,000 additional senior subordinated debt.

Also on July 26, 2007, Clarion entered into a Second Amended and Restated Senior Subordinated Loan Agreement with William Blair Mezzanine Capital Fund III, L.P. ("Senior Subordinated Loan Agreement"). No new funds were loaned. All prior defaults under the Senior Subordinated Loan Agreement were waived. The loan made pursuant to the Senior Subordinated Loan Agreement matures on June 30, 2009.

Also on July 26, 2007, Clarion executed an Amended and Restated Subordinated Secured Promissory Note ("Note") for the benefit of Electrolux Home Products, Inc. No new funds were loaned. All prior defaults under the Note were waived. The loan made pursuant to the Note matures on September 30, 2008.

Additional standard subordination agreements and ancillary other agreements were entered into among the lenders and Clarion.
