The aggregate amount of revolving loans that may be issued also may not exceed the "borrowing base" of the borrowers less "revolver usage".  The borrowing base is calculated based on a percentage of the borrowers&#x2019; eligible accounts receivable plus the sum of (a) the lesser of (i) a percentage of eligible inventor to be sold at wholesale and (ii) a percentage of net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory to be sold at wholesale, plus (b) the lesser of (i) a percentage of the value of eligible inventory to be sold at retail and (ii) a percentage of net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory to be sold at retail, plus (c) the lesser of (i) a percentage of the value of eligible in-transit Inventory and (ii) a percentage of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible in-transit inventory.

This fee will be payable on the first day of each month in arrears.  In addition, in connection with the execution and performance of the Credit Agreement, the lenders and agent receive customary fees.<br><br>Security<br><br>All payment obligations of the borrowers to the lenders under the Credit Agreement are secured by a lien on all personal property of the borrowers and certain subsidiaries of the borrowers.  In addition, all obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Company.  The obligations under the Credit Agreement are also secured by a pledge of the capital stock of certain of the Company's subsidiaries.<br><br>Dividends and Stock Redemption<br><br>The Credit Agreement permits the Company to pay dividends to its stockholders so long as the Company is able to satisfy certain financial conditions both before and immediately after giving effect to the proposed declaration and payment of dividends.  The Credit Agreement also permits the Company to redeem shares of its stock so long as the Company is able to satisfy certain financial conditions both before and immediately after giving effect to the proposed redemption including on a pro forma at all times after the proposed date of such proposed redemption.<br><br>Covenants<br><br>The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants for secured credit facilities of this type, including covenants that will limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur debt, grant liens, make certain acquisitions, dispose assets, effect a change of control of the Company, make certain restricted payments including certain dividends and stock redemptions, make certain investments or loans, enter into certain transactions with affiliates and certain prohibited uses of proceeds.  The Credit Agreement also requires compliance with a minimum fixed charge coverage ration if Availability drops below 10% of the Revolver Commitments (as such terms are defined in the Credit Agreement) until the date when no event of default has existed and Availability has been over 10% for 30 consecutive days.<br><br>Events of Default<br><br>The Credit Agreement provides for customary events of default including payment defaults, breaches of representations or warranties or covenants, cross defaults with certain other indebtedness to third parties, certain judgments/awards/orders, certain losses, theft, damage or destruction of collateral, a change of control, criminal indictments or convictions of senior officers in certain circumstances and bankruptcy events, with, in certain circumstances, cure periods.  In the case of a continuing event of default, the lenders may, among other remedies, accelerate the payment of all obligations due from the borrowers to the lenders, charge the borrowers the default rate of interest on all then outstanding or thereafter incurred obligations, and terminate the lenders' commitments to make any further loans or issue any further letters of credit.  In the event of certain defaults, the commitments of the lenders will be automatically terminated and all outstanding obligations of the borrowers will automatically become due.  In addition, the lenders may take possession of, and enforce the borrowers' rights with respect to, the borrowers' collateral, including selling the collateral.    <br><br>This summary does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Credit Agreement included as Exhibit 10.1 to this filing.  Exhibit 10.1 is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.<br><br>Certain of the lenders party to the Credit Agreement, and their respective affiliates, have performed, and may in the future perform for the Company and its subsidiaries, various commercial banking, investment banking, underwriting and other financial advisory services, for which they have received, and will receive, customary fees and expenses.<br>

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Credit Agreement
On June 30, 2015, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement") by and among the Company, certain of its subsidiaries that are also borrowers under the Credit Agreement, certain of its subsidiaries that are guarantors under the Credit Agreement, and the following lenders:  Bank of America, N.A., MUFG Union Bank, N.A. and HSBC Bank USA, National Association.
The Credit Agreement replaces the credit agreement dated June 30, 2009 that was entered into by and among the Company, certain of its subsidiaries and certain lenders including Wells Fargo Foothill, LLC, Bank of America, N.A., and Banc of America LLC, which expired on June 30, 2015.
The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Credit Agreement for the general corporate needs of the borrowers and for the financing of certain types of transaction as permitted by the Credit Agreement.
Form of Loans and Borrowing Limits
Borrowings made pursuant to the Credit Agreement may be in the form of revolving loans up to a maximum limit of $250 million (subject to increase to up to $350 million).  The aggregate amount of revolving loans that may be issued also may not exceed the "borrowing base" of the borrowers less "revolver usage".  The borrowing base is calculated based on a percentage of the borrowers' eligible accounts receivable plus the sum of (a) the lesser of (i) a percentage of eligible inventor to be sold at wholesale and (ii) a percentage of net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory to be sold at wholesale, plus (b) the lesser of (i) a percentage of the value of eligible inventory to be sold at retail and (ii) a percentage of net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory to be sold at retail, plus (c) the lesser of (i) a percentage of the value of eligible in-transit Inventory and (ii) a percentage of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible in-transit inventory.  Amounts borrowed as revolving loans under the Credit Agreement may be borrowed, repaid and re-borrowed from time to time.
Interest
Interest will accrue at a floating rate based on, at the borrowers' election, (a) LIBOR or (b) the greater of (i) the Prime Rate, (ii) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5% and (iii) LIBOR for a 30 day period plus 1.0%, in each case, plus an applicable margin based on the average daily principal balance of revolving loans available under the Credit Agreement.
Fees
A line of credit fee will be payable monthly at an amount equal to 0.25%, multiplied by the $250 million line of credit (subject to increase to up to $350 million) less the average daily principal balance of outstanding revolving loans and the average daily undrawn amounts of letters of credit outstanding during such month.  This fee will be payable on the first day of each month in arrears.  In addition, in connection with the execution and performance of the Credit Agreement, the lenders and agent receive customary fees.
Security
All payment obligations of the borrowers to the lenders under the Credit Agreement are secured by a lien on all personal property of the borrowers and certain subsidiaries of the borrowers.  In addition, all obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Company.  The obligations under the Credit Agreement are also secured by a pledge of the capital stock of certain of the Company's subsidiaries.
Dividends and Stock Redemption
The Credit Agreement permits the Company to pay dividends to its stockholders so long as the Company is able to satisfy certain financial conditions both before and immediately after giving effect to the proposed declaration and payment of dividends.  The Credit Agreement also permits the Company to redeem shares of its stock so long as the Company is able to satisfy certain financial conditions both before and immediately after giving effect to the proposed redemption including on a pro forma at all times after the proposed date of such proposed redemption.
Covenants
The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants for secured credit facilities of this type, including covenants that will limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur debt, grant liens, make certain acquisitions, dispose assets, effect a change of control of the Company, make certain restricted payments including certain dividends and stock redemptions, make certain investments or loans, enter into certain transactions with affiliates and certain prohibited uses of proceeds.  The Credit Agreement also requires compliance with a minimum fixed charge coverage ration if Availability drops below 10% of the Revolver Commitments (as such terms are defined in the Credit Agreement) until the date when no event of default has existed and Availability has been over 10% for 30 consecutive days.
Events of Default
The Credit Agreement provides for customary events of default including payment defaults, breaches of representations or warranties or covenants, cross defaults with certain other indebtedness to third parties, certain judgments/awards/orders, certain losses, theft, damage or destruction of collateral, a change of control, criminal indictments or convictions of senior officers in certain circumstances and bankruptcy events, with, in certain circumstances, cure periods.  In the case of a continuing event of default, the lenders may, among other remedies, accelerate the payment of all obligations due from the borrowers to the lenders, charge the borrowers the default rate of interest on all then outstanding or thereafter incurred obligations, and terminate the lenders' commitments to make any further loans or issue any further letters of credit.  In the event of certain defaults, the commitments of the lenders will be automatically terminated and all outstanding obligations of the borrowers will automatically become due.  In addition, the lenders may take possession of, and enforce the borrowers' rights with respect to, the borrowers' collateral, including selling the collateral.
