Interest Coverage Ratio. Retailer shall not permit, as of the end of any quarterly reporting period, the Interest Coverage Ratio to be less than 3.00 to 1.00.

 

 

In order to establish compliance with the Financial Covenants set forth above, Retailer will use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to Bank (i) within forty-five (45) days after the end of each of the first three (3) fiscal quarters of each fiscal year of the Retailer, a certificate, signed by the Chief Financial Officer of Retailer or Retailer’s chief accounting officer or such other officer of the Retailer as Retailer shall designate and in a form satisfactory to Bank, establishing Retailer’s compliance or non- compliance with the Financial Covenants for such fiscal quarter, and (ii) within ninety (90) days after the end of the fourth fiscal quarter of each fiscal year of the Retailer, a certificate, signed by the Chief Financial Officer of Retailer or Retailer’s chief accounting officer or such other officer of the Retailer as Retailer shall designate and in a form satisfactory to Bank, establishing Retailer’s compliance or noncompliance with the Financial Covenants for such fiscal quarter. Each certificate will include a detailed calculation illustrating the Leverage Ratio and Interest Coverage Ratio as of the end of the applicable period. Unless otherwise specifically set forth to the contrary, all financial calculations contemplated herein shall be performed in accordance with GAAP.

 

 

"Leverage Ratio" shall (a) have the same meaning as is ascribed to the term “Leverage Ratio” in that certain Amended and Restated Credit and Security Agreement dated as of February 14, 2018, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit and Security Agreement dated as of February 11, 2019, with Sleep Number Corporation as the Borrower and U.S. Bank National Association as the Administrative Agent (the “Credit Agreement”) and (b) be determined in same the way as the Leverage Ratio is determined under the Credit Agreement.

Bank will not unreasonably withhold its consent to any proposed changes in the definition of Leverage Ratio.

Retailer shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratios or covenants to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP; and until so amended, (a) such ratio or restriction shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein (subject to the foregoing first proviso) and (b) Retailer shall provide to the Bank financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of such ratios or restrictions made before and after giving effect to such change.

 

"Interest Coverage Ratio" shall (a) have the same meaning as is ascribed to the term “Interest Coverage Ratio” in the Credit Agreement and (b) be determined in the same way as the Interest Coverage Ratio is determined under the Credit Agreement. If the definition of Interest Coverage Ratio, or any underlying defined terms that make up the definition, are changed in the Credit Agreement, Retailer will inform Bank of any proposed changes and if Bank agrees to the proposed changes in writing, the definition of Interest Coverage Ratio for purposes of this Agreement will change also. Bank will not unreasonably withhold its consent to any proposed changes in the definition of Interest Coverage Ratio.
