ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

          The disclosure contained under Item 2.03 below is incorporated herein
by reference.


ITEM 2.03 CREATION OF A DIRECT FINANCIAL OBLIGATION OR AN OBLIGATION UNDER AN
OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENT OF A REGISTRANT

          On March 31, 2006, Dynamic Materials Corporation (the "Company")
entered into the First Amendment to Credit Agreement (the "Amendment") between
the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the "Bank"). The
Amendment amends the Credit Agreement entered into on September 15, 2005, by and
between the Company and the Bank (together with the Revolving Line of Credit
Note, the "Credit Facility"). The Credit Facility provides the Company until
June 30, 2007 with a $7,500,000 revolving line of credit for working capital and
general corporate purposes.

          The Amendment substitutes a revised Section 6.2, which permits the
Company to invest up to $14,000,000 in fixed assets in fiscal year ending 2006,
while retaining the $4,000,000 limitation on investments in fixed assets in any
subsequent fiscal year. The Amendment also deletes Section 7.1(i) in its
entirety, which had previously considered it an event of default if Groupe SNPE
owned or controlled less than 25% of the outstanding voting equity interests in
the Company.

          A copy of the Amendment is included as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current
Report on Form 8-K, and such Exhibit is incorporated into this Item 2.03 by
reference and any description of the Amendment in this Item 2.03 is qualified by
such reference.
