Credit which are either outstanding as of the first day
of such Seasonal Supplemental Credit Period or
outstanding from time to time throughout such
Seasonal Supplemental Credit Period, such sales of
Inventory to be evidenced by purchase orders, in form
and substance satisfactory to Foothill, from
purchasers, and on terms, that would otherwise satisfy

declaring an Event of Default if it determines that there has occurred a
Material Adverse Change with respect to such Borrower.

2.2 LETTERS OF CREDIT.
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
Foothill agrees to issue letters of credit for the account of each Borrower
(each, an "L/C") or to issue guarantees of payment (each such guaranty, an "L/C
Guaranty") with respect to letters of credit issued by an issuing bank for the
account of a Borrower, as follows:
(i) Foothill shall have no obligation to issue a Letter of
Credit for the account of or with respect to KPR if any of the
following would result:
(x) the sum of 35% of the aggregate amount of all
undrawn and unreimbursed KPR Inventory Letters of Credit plus 100% of
----
the aggregate amount of all other types of undrawn and unreimbursed
KPR Letters of Credit would exceed the Borrowing Base as to KPR, less
----
the amount of outstanding Advances less the aggregate amount of
----
Inventory Reserves and reserves established under Section 2.1(b) as to
KPR; or
(y) the aggregate amount of all undrawn or
unreimbursed KPR Letters of Credit (including KPR Inventory Letters of
Credit) would exceed the lower of: (A) the Maximum Revolving Amount
less the amount of outstanding Advances less the aggregate amount of
---- ----
Inventory Reserves and reserves established under Section 2.1(b) as to
KPR; or (B) $7,000,000; and
(ii) Foothill shall have no obligation to issue a Letter of
Credit for the account of or with respect to Ryka if any of the
following would result:
(x) the sum of 35% of the aggregate amount of all
undrawn and unreimbursed Ryka Inventory Letters of Credit plus 100% of
----
the aggregate amount of all other types of undrawn and unreimbursed
Ryka Letters of Credit would exceed the Borrowing Base as to Ryka,
less the amount of outstanding Advances less the aggregate amount of
---- ----
Inventory Reserves and reserves established under Section 2.1(b) as to
Ryka; or
29
(y) the aggregate amount of all undrawn or
unreimbursed Ryka Letters of Credit (including Ryka Inventory Letters
of Credit) would exceed the lower of: (A) the Maximum Revolving Amount
less the amount of outstanding Advances less the aggregate amount of
---- ----
Inventory Reserves and reserves established under Section 2.1(b) as to
Ryka; or (B) $3,000,000.
Each Borrower expressly understands and agrees that Foothill shall have no
obligation to arrange for the issuance by issuing banks of the letters of credit
that are to be the subject of L/C Guarantees. Each of Borrowers and Foothill
acknowledge and agree that certain of the letters of credit that are to be the
subject of L/C Guarantees may be outstanding on the Closing Date. Each Letter
of Credit shall have an expiry date no later than 60 days prior to the date on
which this Agreement is scheduled to terminate under Section 3.4 (without regard
-----------
to any potential renewal term) and all such Letters of Credit shall be in form
and substance acceptable to Foothill in its sole discretion. If Foothill is
obligated to advance funds under a Letter of Credit, Borrowers immediately shall
reimburse such amount to Foothill and, in the absence of such reimbursement, the
amount so advanced immediately and automatically shall be deemed to be an
Advance hereunder to the Borrower for whose account the Letter of Credit was
issued, and, thereafter, shall bear interest at the rate then applicable to
Advances under Section 2.6.
-----------
(b) In the event that any Letters of Credit shall have been
issued pursuant hereto which are permitted to be issued only under the Seasonal
Supplemental Credit, then, not later than the last day of the Seasonal
Supplemental Credit Period during which they were issued, all such Letters of
Credit shall have expired or been drawn upon in full. In the event that, at the
close of business of the last day of such Seasonal Supplemental Credit Period
the aggregate amount of Advances under Section 2.1(a) hereof would exceed the
amount permitted to be outstanding thereunder as a result of the termination on
such day of the Seasonal Supplemental Credit, then, not later than the close of
business on such day, such Borrower shall repay such Advances in an amount equal
to the aggregate amount of such excess amount.
(c) Each Borrower hereby agree to indemnify, save, defend, and
hold Foothill harmless from any loss, cost, expense, or liability, including
payments made by Foothill, expenses, and reasonable attorneys fees incurred by
Foothill arising out of or in connection with any Letter of Credit issued for
the account of such Borrower. Each Borrower agrees to be bound by the issuing
bank's regulations and interpretations of any Letters of Credit guarantied by
Foothill and
30
opened to or for a Borrower's account or by Foothill's interpretations of any
L/C issued by Foothill to or for a Borrower's account, even though this
interpretation may be different from such Borrower's own, and each Borrower
understands and agrees that Foothill shall not be liable for any error,
negligence, or mistake, whether of omission or commission, in following either
or both of Borrowers' instructions or those contained in the Letter of Credit or
any modifications, amendments, or supplements thereto. Each Borrower understands
that the L/C Guarantees may require Foothill to indemnify the issuing bank for
certain costs or liabilities arising out of claims by either or both of
Borrowers against such issuing bank. Borrowers hereby agree to indemnify, save,
defend, and hold Foothill harmless with respect to any loss, cost, expense
(including reasonable attorneys fees), or liability incurred by Foothill under
any L/C Guaranty as a result of Foothill's indemnification of any such issuing
bank.
(d) Each Borrower hereby authorizes and directs any bank that
issues a letter of credit guaranteed by Foothill to deliver to Foothill all
instruments, documents, and other writings and property received by the issuing
bank pursuant to such letter of credit, and to accept and rely upon Foothill's
instructions and agreements with respect to all matters arising in connection
with such letter of credit and the related application. A Borrower may or may
not be the "applicant" or "account party" with respect to such letter of credit.
(e) Any and all charges, commissions, fees, and costs incurred
by Foothill relating to the letters of credit guaranteed by Foothill shall be
considered Foothill Expenses for purposes of this Agreement and immediately
shall be reimbursable by Borrowers to Foothill.
(f) Immediately upon the termination of this Agreement, each
Borrower agrees to either (i) provide cash collateral to be held by Foothill in
an amount equal to 102% of the maximum amount of Foothill's obligations under
Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower, or (ii) cause to be
delivered to Foothill releases of all of Foothill's obligations under
outstanding Letters of Credit. At Foothill's discretion, any proceeds of
Collateral received by Foothill after the occurrence and during the continuation
of an Event of Default may be held as the cash collateral required by this
Section 2.2(e).
--------------
(g) If by reason of (i) any change in any applicable law,
treaty, rule, or regulation or any change in the interpretation or application
by any governmental authority of any such applicable law, treaty, rule, or
regulation, or (ii) compliance by the issuing bank or Foothill with any
direction, request, or requirement
31
(irrespective of whether having the force of law) of any governmental authority
or monetary authority including, without limitation, Regulation D of the Board
of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as from time to time in effect (and
any successor thereto):
(A) any reserve, deposit, or similar requirement is or
shall be imposed or modified in respect of any Letters of Credit issued
hereunder, or
(B) there shall be imposed on the issuing bank or Foothill
any other condition regarding any letter of credit, or Letter of Credit, as
applicable, issued pursuant hereto;
and the result of the foregoing is to increase, directly or indirectly, the cost
to the issuing bank or Foothill of issuing, making, guaranteeing, or maintaining
any letter of credit, or Letter of Credit, as applicable, or to reduce the
amount receivable in respect thereof by such issuing bank or Foothill, then, and
in any such case, Foothill may, at any time within a reasonable period after the
additional cost is incurred or the amount received is reduced, notify Borrowers,
and Borrowers shall pay on demand such amounts as the issuing bank or Foothill
may specify to be necessary to compensate the issuing bank or Foothill for such
additional cost or reduced receipt, together with interest on such amount from
the date of such demand until payment in full thereof at the rate set forth in
Section 2.6(a)(i) or (c)(i), as applicable. The determination by the issuing
---------------------------
bank or Foothill, as the case may be, of any amount due pursuant to this Section
-------
2.2(f), as set forth in a certificate setting forth the calculation thereof in
------
reasonable detail, shall, in the absence of manifest or demonstrable error, be
final and conclusive and binding on all of the parties hereto.
2.3 INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.
2.4 INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.
2.5 OVERADVANCES. If, at any time or for any reason, the amount of
Obligations owed by Borrowers to Foothill pursuant to Sections 2.1 and 2.2 is
--------------------
greater than either the Dollar or percentage limitations set forth in Sections
--------
2.1 or 2.2 (an "Overadvance"), Borrowers immediately shall pay to Foothill
----------
(except that, if such Overadvance arises from the charging of interest or
amounts in respect of Foothill Expenses to a Borrower's Loan Account, then such
Borrower shall make payment to Foothill not later than three (3) days after the
creation of such Overadvance), in cash, the amount of such excess to be used by
Foothill first, to repay Advances outstanding under Section 2.1 and, thereafter,
-----------
to be held by Foothill as cash collateral to secure
32
Borrowers' joint and several obligation to repay Foothill for all amounts paid
pursuant to Letters of Credit.
2.6 INTEREST AND LETTER OF CREDIT FEES: RATES, PAYMENTS, AND
CALCULATIONS.
(a) Interest Rate.
(i) Except as provided in clause (ii) below, all
Obligations (except for undrawn Letters of Credit), shall bear interest at a per
annum rate of one-quarter of one (.25) percentage point above the Reference
Rate.
(ii) In lieu of having interest charged based upon the
Reference Rate, Borrowers shall have the option (the "Eurodollar Option") to
have interest on a portion of its Advances be charged based on the Adjusted
Eurodollar Rate. For purposes hereof, interest "based on the Adjusted Eurodollar
Rate" shall mean interest at the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate plus two and three-
----
quarters (2.75) percentage points per annum. Interest on that portion of the
Advances bearing interest based on the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate ("Adjusted
Eurodollar Rate Advances") shall be payable on the last day of each month and on
the last day of each Interest Period and may, at Foothill's option, be charged
directly to the appropriate Borrower's Loan Account maintained by Foothill.
Interest based on the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate shall be calculated for each
month (or portion thereof) based on the number of days elapsed and a year of 360
days. On and after the date of any Event of Default or termination or non-
renewal of this Agreement, interest on all outstanding Adjusted Eurodollar Rate
Advances shall accrue at a rate equal to three (3) percentage points per annum
in excess of the pre-default rate set forth above from the date of such Event of
Default or termination or non-renewal until the end of the Interest Period, and
all such interest accruing hereunder shall thereafter be payable on demand. Upon
expiration of the Interest Period, or earlier at Foothill's option following an
Event of Default or termination or non-renewal of the Agreement, and until
Borrower's subsequent permitted exercise, if any, of the Eurodollar Option, all
Advances shall accrue interest in accordance with Section 2.6(a)(i) of this
----------------
Agreement.
(iii) (x) Each Borrower may, at any time prior to an Event of
Default or termination or non-renewal of the Agreement, exercise the Eurodollar
Option by notifying Foothill prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York time) at least three
Business Days in London prior to the commencement of the proposed Interest
Period (the "Eurodollar Deadline"). Notice of Borrower's election of the
Eurodollar Option for a permitted portion of the Advances and an Interest Period
pursuant to this
33
Section 2.6(a)(iii) shall be made by delivery to Foothill of a Eurodollar Notice
-------------------
in the form of Exhibit 2.6 hereto via facsimile teletransmission received by
-----------
Foothill before the Eurodollar Deadline, or by telephonic notice received by
Foothill before the Eurodollar Deadline (to be confirmed by facsimile
teletransmission to Foothill of the Eurodollar Notice to be received by Foothill
prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the same day; provided, however, that
-------- -------
Borrower's failure to deliver such confirming Eurodollar Notice shall not affect
the applicability of such rate if Borrower's election is implemented by
Foothill).
(y) Each Eurodollar Notice pursuant to this Section 2.6(a)(iii)
-------------------
shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrowers. In connection with the Adjusted
Eurodollar Rate Advances, each Borrower shall indemnify Foothill against a loss,
cost or expense incurred by Foothill as a result of any failure to fulfill on or
before the date specified in the Eurodollar Notice, the applicable conditions
set forth herein or the termination prior to the end of an Interest Period of
the applicability of interest based on the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate, as provided
hereunder, including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of
anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or
reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired or committed to be acquired by
Foothill or its participants to fund the requested Adjusted Eurodollar Rate
Advances which, as a result of such failure, are not so employed on such date
(such losses, costs, and expenses, collectively "Funding Losses").
(z) Borrowers shall only have four Interest Periods in existence
at any given time. Borrowers may only exercise the Eurodollar Option for
Adjusted Eurodollar Rate Advances of at least $1,000,000 and integral multiples
of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. The maximum amount of Adjusted Eurodollar Rate
Advances at any given time shall not exceed 80% of the projected average daily
balance of the Advances for the Interest Period in question as determined by
Foothill, based upon information furnished by Borrowers, but without creating
any obligation on Foothill's part to make any Advances available other than on
the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement.
(iv)(x) Borrowers may elect to prepay any Adjusted Eurodollar Rate
Advances only on the last day of the applicable Interest Period, provided, that
--------
in the event of the prepayment of any such Advances, including any automatic
prepayment through required application by Foothill of proceeds of Accounts and
other Collateral received by Foothill, on a date other than the last day of an
Interest Period for any reason, including, without limitation, acceleration
pursuant to Section 2.6(a)(iv)(y) hereof or otherwise pursuant to this
---------------------
Agreement, each Borrower
34
shall indemnify Foothill for Funding Losses which may arise in connection with
such prepayment of such Borrower's Adjusted Eurodollar Rate Advances.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the outstanding
Advances are reduced below the balance of the outstanding Adjusted Eurodollar
Rate by virtue of automatic prepayment from proceeds of Accounts and other
collateral, then Foothill will automatically make an advance to Borrowers so
that the outstanding Advances will equal the outstanding Adjusted Eurodollar
Rate Advances so long as each Borrower has sufficient borrowing availability
under the formulas set forth in the Agreement and subject to the reserves and
applicable sublimits thereunder.
(y) In the event that the aggregate amount with respect to
which a Borrower has exercised the Eurodollar Option exceeds the amount of
Advances to such Borrower actually outstanding at any time, or in the event that
the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate Advances shall at any time exceed the amounts of
Advances under the Agreement which Foothill determines are available under the
lending formulas and subject to reserves, the definitions of Maximum Revolving
Amount and applicable sublimits, all as set forth in this Agreement, then, in
addition to all other rights and remedies to Foothill, Foothill may, at its
option, require that such Adjusted Eurodollar Rate Advances cease to accrue
interest based on the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate. In such event, the Adjusted
Eurodollar Rate Advances will bear interest as provided in Section 2.6(a)(i) of
-----------------
this Agreement, and each Borrower shall indemnify Foothill for Funding Losses
which may arise in connection with the termination of applicability of interest
based on the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate as to such Borrower.
(v)(x) The Adjusted Eurodollar Rate may be automatically
adjusted by Foothill on a prospective basis to take into account the additional
or increased cost to Foothill of maintaining any necessary reserves for
Eurodollar deposits or increased costs due to change in applicable law occurring
subsequent to the commencement of the then applicable Interest Period, including
but not limited to changes in tax laws (except changes of general applicability
in corporate income tax laws) and changes in the reserve requirements imposed by
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor),
excluding the Reserve Percentage, that increase or would increase the costs of
funding loans bearing interest based on the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate. Foothill
shall give Borrowers notice of such determination and adjustment and Borrowers
may, by notice to Foothill: (A) require Foothill to furnish to Borrowers a
statement setting forth the basis for adjusting such Adjusted Eurodollar Rate
and the method for determining the amount of such adjustment; and/or (B) repay
the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate Advances, or portions thereof, with respect to
which such adjustment is made, as appropriate.
35
(y) In the event that any change in circumstances or any law,
regulation, treaty or directive, or any change therein or the interpretation of
application thereof, shall at any time after the date hereof, in the reasonable
opinion of Foothill, make it unlawful or impractical for Foothill to fund or
maintain an Adjusted Eurodollar Loan or to continue such funding or maintaining
or to determine or change interest rates based on the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate,
Foothill shall give notice of such circumstances to the Borrowers and (A) in the
case of any Adjusted Eurodollar Rate Advances which are outstanding, the date
specified in Foothill's notice shall be deemed to be the last day of the
Interest Period of such Adjusted Eurodollar Rate Advances, and interest upon the
Adjusted Eurodollar Advances then outstanding shall thereafter accrue as
provided in Section 2.6(a)(i) of the Agreement, and (B) Foothill shall not be
-----------------
obligated to permit Borrowers to elect the Eurodollar Option as to any Loan
until Foothill determines that it would no longer be unlawful or impractical to
do so.
(vi) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
neither Foothill nor any participant is required to actually acquire United
States dollar deposits on the London Interbank Market to fund or otherwise match
fund any Advances as to which interest accrues based on the Adjusted Eurodollar
Rate. Provisions of Section 2.6(a)(iv) hereof shall apply as if Foothill and/or
------------------
its participants had match funded any Advances as to which interest is accruing
based on the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate by acquiring United States dollar deposits
in the London Interbank Market for each Interest Period in the amount of the
Adjusted Eurodollar Rate Loan. Funding Losses of Foothill hereunder shall
include the aggregate Funding Losses of Foothill and its participants in the
Adjusted Eurodollar Rate Advances.
(b) Letter of Credit Fee. Borrowers shall pay Foothill a fee
(in addition to the charges, commissions, fees, and costs set forth in
Section 2.2(e)) equal to one and one-half (1.50%) percent per annum times the
---------------
aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit.
(c) Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation
of an Event of Default, (i) all Obligations (except for undrawn Letters of
Credit) shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to two and three-quarters
(2.75) percentage points above the Reference Rate, and (ii) the Letter of Credit
fee provided in Section 2.6(b) shall be increased to three and one-half (3.5%)
--------------
percent per annum times the amount of the undrawn Letters of Credit that were
outstanding during the immediately preceding month.
36
(d) Payments. Interest and Letter of Credit fees payable
hereunder shall be due and payable, in arrears, on the first day of each month
during the term hereof. Each Borrower hereby authorizes Foothill, at its option,
without prior notice to Borrowers, to charge such interest and Letter of Credit
fees, all Foothill Expenses (as and when incurred), the charges, commissions,
fees, and costs provided for in Section 2.2(e) (as and when accrued or
--------------
incurred), the fees and charges provided for in Section 2.11 (as and when
------------
accrued or incurred), all amounts provided for in Section 2.6 (a)(iv) hereof,
-------------------
and all installments or other payments due under any Loan Document to either
Borrower's Loan Account, which amounts thereafter shall accrue interest at the
rate then applicable to Advances hereunder. Any interest not paid when due shall
be compounded and shall thereafter accrue interest at the rate then applicable
to Advances hereunder.
(e) Computation. The Reference Rate as of the date of this
Agreement is 8.5% per annum. In the event the Reference Rate is changed from
time to time hereafter, the applicable rate of interest hereunder automatically
and immediately shall be increased or decreased by an amount equal to such
change in the Reference Rate. All interest and fees chargeable under the Loan
Documents shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year for the actual number
of days elapsed.
(f) Intent to Limit Charges to Maximum Lawful Rate. In no
event shall the interest rate or rates payable under this Agreement, plus any
other amounts paid in connection herewith, exceed the highest rate permissible
under any law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final
determination, deem applicable. Each Borrower and Foothill, in executing and
delivering this Agreement, intend legally to agree upon the rate or rates of
interest and manner of payment stated within it; provided, however, that,
-------- -------
anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if said rate or rates
of interest or manner of payment exceeds the maximum allowable under applicable
law, then, ipso facto as of the date of this Agreement, each Borrower is and
---- -----
shall be liable only for the payment of such maximum as allowed by law, and
payment received from such Borrower in excess of such legal maximum, whenever
received, shall be applied to reduce the principal balance of the Obligations to
the extent of such excess.
2.7 COLLECTION OF ACCOUNTS. Each Borrower shall at all times maintain
lockboxes (the "Lockboxes") and, immediately after the Closing Date, shall
instruct all Account Debtors with respect to the Accounts, General Intangibles,
and Negotiable Collateral of each Borrower to remit all Collections in respect
---
thereof to such Lockboxes. Each Borrower, Foothill, and the Lockbox Banks shall
enter into the Lockbox Agreements, which among other things shall provide for
the opening of
37
a Lockbox Account for the deposit of Collections at a Lockbox Bank. Each
Borrower agrees that all Collections and other amounts received by such Borrower
from any Account Debtor or any other source immediately upon receipt shall be
deposited into a Lockbox Account. No Lockbox Agreement or arrangement
contemplated thereby shall be modified by a Borrower without the prior written
consent of Foothill. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in
the Lockbox Agreements, all amounts received in each Lockbox Account shall be
wired each Business Day into an account (the "Foothill Account") maintained by
Foothill at a depositary selected by Foothill.
2.8 CREDITING PAYMENTS; APPLICATION OF COLLECTIONS. The receipt of
any Collections by Foothill (whether from transfers to Foothill by the Lockbox
Banks pursuant to the Lockbox Agreements or otherwise) immediately shall be
applied provisionally to reduce the Obligations outstanding under Section 2.1,
-----------
but shall not be considered a payment on account unless such Collection item is
a wire transfer of immediately available federal funds and is made to the
Foothill Account or unless and until such Collection item is honored when
presented for payment. From and after the Closing Date, Foothill shall be
entitled to charge Borrower for two (2) Business Days of `clearance' or `float'
at the rate set forth in Section 2.6(a)(i) or Section 2.6(c)(i), as applicable,
----------------- -----------------
on all Collections that are received by Foothill (regardless of whether
forwarded by the Lockbox Banks to Foothill, whether provisionally applied to
reduce the Obligations under Section 2.1, or otherwise). This across-the-board
-----------
two (2) Business Day clearance or float charge on all Collections is
acknowledged by the parties to constitute an integral aspect of the pricing of
Foothill's financing of Borrowers, and shall apply irrespective of the
characterization of whether receipts are owned by Borrowers or Foothill, and
whether or not there are any outstanding Advances, the effect of such clearance
or float charge being the equivalent of charging two (2) Business Days of
interest on such Collections. Should any Collection item not be honored when
presented for payment, then Borrowers shall be deemed not to have made such
payment, and interest shall be recalculated accordingly. Anything to the
contrary contained herein notwithstanding, any Collection item shall be deemed
received by Foothill only if it is received into the Foothill Account on a
Business Day on or before 11:00 a.m. California time. If any Collection item is
received into the Foothill Account on a non-Business Day or after 11:00 a.m.
California time on a Business Day, it shall be deemed to have been received by
Foothill as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business
Day.
2.9 DESIGNATED ACCOUNT. Foothill is authorized to make the Advances
and issue the Letters of Credit under this Agreement based upon telephonic
38
or other instructions received from anyone purporting to be an Authorized
Person, or without instructions if pursuant to Section 2.6(e). Each Borrower
--------------
agrees to establish and maintain the Designated Account with the Designated
Account Bank for the purpose of receiving the proceeds of the Advances requested
by Borrowers and made by Foothill hereunder. Unless otherwise agreed by
Foothill and Borrowers, any Advance requested by a Borrower and made by Foothill
hereunder shall be made to the Designated Account.
2.10 MAINTENANCE OF LOAN ACCOUNTS; STATEMENTS OF OBLIGATIONS.
Foothill shall maintain an account on its books in the name of each Borrower
(individually, a "Loan Account" and collectively, the "Loan Accounts") on which
each Borrower will be charged with all Advances made by Foothill to such
Borrower or for such Borrower's account, including, accrued interest, Foothill

immediately shall become due and payable without notice or demand. No

and Foothill's obligation to provide additional credit hereunder is terminated.
If Borrowers have sent a notice of termination pursuant to the provisions of

lost profits as a result thereof, Borrowers shall pay to Foothill upon the
effective date of such termination, a premium in an amount equal to the Early
Termination Premium. The Early Termination Premium shall be presumed to be the
amount of damages sustained by Foothill as the result of the early termination

be deemed included in the Obligations.

Collateral have been assigned to Foothill or that Foothill has a security
interest therein, and (b) collect the Accounts, General Intangibles, and
Negotiable Collateral directly and charge the collection costs and expenses to

any Account, drafts against Account Debtors, schedules and assignments of
Accounts, verifications of Accounts, and notices to Account Debtors, (c) send
requests for verification of Accounts, (d) endorse such Borrower's name on any
Collection item that may come into Foothill's possession, (e) at any time that
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or Foothill deems itself

audit adjustments) and fairly present the financial condition of such Borrower,
(ii) the representations and warranties of such Borrower contained in this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material
respects on and as of the date of such certificate, as though made on and as of
such date (except to the extent that such representations and warranties relate

a financial covenant in Section 7.20 is to be tested, a Compliance Certificate
------------

applicable financial covenants contained in Section 7.20, and (iv) on the date
------------

such non-compliance as to which he or she may have knowledge and what action
such Borrower has taken, is taking, or proposes to take with respect thereto).
55
Each Borrower shall have issued written instructions to its
independent certified public accountants authorizing them to communicate with
Foothill and to release to Foothill whatever financial information concerning
such Borrower that Foothill may request. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably
authorizes and directs all auditors, accountants, or other third parties to
deliver to Foothill, at Borrower's expense, copies of such Borrower's financial

days after the same are required to be filed by law.
6.6 RETURNS. Cause returns and allowances, if any, as between each
Borrower and its Account Debtors to be on the same basis and in accordance with
the usual customary practices of such Borrower, as they exist at the time of the
execution and delivery of this Agreement. If, at a time when no Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, any Account Debtor returns any Inventory
to a Borrower, such Borrower promptly shall determine the reason for such return
and, if such Borrower accepts such return, issue a credit memorandum (and, to
the extent requested by Foothill, with a copy to be sent to Foothill) in the
appropriate amount to such Account Debtor. If, at a time when an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, any Account Debtor returns any Inventory
to Borrower, Borrower promptly shall determine the reason for such return and,
if Foothill consents (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), issue a
credit memorandum (with a copy to be sent to Foothill) in the appropriate amount
to such Account Debtor.

operating condition and repair (ordinary wear and tear excepted), and make all
56
necessary replacements thereto so that the value and operating efficiency
thereof shall at all times be maintained and preserved. Other than those items

shall permit any item of Equipment to become a fixture to real estate or an
accession to other property, and such Equipment shall at all times remain
personal property.

extent that the validity of such assessment or tax shall be the subject of a
Permitted Protest. Each Borrower shall make due and timely payment or deposit of
all such federal, state, and local taxes, assessments, or contributions required
of it by law, and will execute and deliver to Foothill, on demand, appropriate
certificates attesting to the payment thereof or deposit with respect thereto.
Each Borrower will make timely payment or deposit of all tax payments and
withholding taxes required of it by applicable laws, including those laws
concerning F.I.C.A., F.U.T.A., state disability, and local, state, and federal
income taxes, and will, upon request, furnish Foothill with proof satisfactory
to Foothill indicating that such Borrower has made such payments or deposits.
6.10 INSURANCE.
(a) At its expense, keep the Personal Property Collateral
insured against loss or damage by fire, theft, explosion, sprinklers, and all
other hazards and risks, and in such amounts, as are ordinarily insured against
by other owners in similar businesses. Each Borrower also shall maintain
business interruption, public liability, product liability, and property damage
insurance relating to such Borrower's ownership and use of the Personal Property
Collateral, as well as insurance against larceny, embezzlement, and criminal
misappropriation.
(b) At its expense, obtain and maintain (i) insurance of the
type necessary to insure the improvements and personal property located on the
real property which is covered by the Mortgages, for the full replacement cost
thereof, against any loss by fire, lightning, windstorm, hail, explosion,
aircraft, smoke damage, vehicle damage, earthquakes, elevator collision, and
other risks from time to time included under "extended coverage" policies, in
such amounts as Foothill may require, but in any event in amounts sufficient to
prevent either or both Borrowers from becoming a co-insurer under such policies,
(ii) combined single limit bodily injury and property damages insurance against
any loss, liability, or damages on, about, or relating to each parcel of Real
Property Collateral, in an amount reasonably
57
satisfactory to Foothill; (iii) business rental insurance covering annual
receipts for a 12 month period for each parcel of Real Property Collateral; and
(iv) insurance for such other risks as Foothill may require. Replacement costs,
at Foothill's option, may be redetermined by an insurance appraiser,
satisfactory to Foothill, not more frequently than once every 12 months at
Borrowers' cost.
(c) At its expense, maintain key man life insurance policies
with respect to the following individuals and in the following amounts:
Name Amount
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ $1,000,000
Borrowers shall furnish Foothill with an "Absolute
Assignment" of each such life insurance policy, shall record each such "Absolute
Assignment" with the issuer of the respective policy, and shall furnish proof of
such issuer's acceptance of such assignment. All proceeds payable under such
life insurance policies shall be payable to Foothill to be applied on account of
the Obligations.
(d) All such policies of insurance shall be in such form, with
such companies, and in such amounts as may be reasonably satisfactory to
Foothill. All insurance required herein shall be written by companies which are
authorized to do insurance business in the State of New York. All hazard
insurance and such other insurance as Foothill shall specify, shall contain a
California Form 438BFU (NS) mortgagee endorsement, or an equivalent endorsement
satisfactory to Foothill, showing Foothill as sole loss payee thereof, and shall
contain a waiver of warranties. Every policy of insurance referred to in this
Section 6.10 shall contain an agreement by the insurer that it will not cancel
------------
such policy except after 30 days prior written notice to Foothill and that any
loss payable thereunder shall be payable notwithstanding any act or negligence
of the appropriate Borrower of such policy or Foothill which might, absent such
agreement, result in a forfeiture of all or a part of such insurance payment and
notwithstanding (i) occupancy or use of the Real Property Collateral for
purposes more hazardous than permitted by the terms of such policy, (ii) any
foreclosure or other action or proceeding taken by Foothill pursuant to the
Mortgages upon the happening of an Event of Default, or (iii) any change in
title or ownership of the Real Property Collateral. Borrowers shall deliver to
Foothill certified copies of such policies of insurance and evidence of the
payment of all premiums therefor.
58
(e) Original policies or certificates thereof satisfactory to
Foothill evidencing such insurance shall be delivered to Foothill at least 30
days prior to the expiration of the existing or preceding policies. Borrowers
shall give Foothill prompt notice of any loss covered by such insurance, and
Foothill shall have the right to adjust any loss. Foothill shall have the
exclusive right (subject, however, to the rights of the existing first and
second mortgagees of KPR's premises in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania as to
insurance covering their real property collateral) to adjust all losses payable
under any such insurance policies without any liability to either or both of
Borrowers whatsoever in respect of such adjustments, provided, however, that
-------- -------
Foothill shall use its reasonable efforts to consult with Borrowers in
connection with any such adjustment of losses, but further provided that
--- ------- --------
Borrowers agree and acknowledge that Foothill's failure to so consult with
Borrowers shall not impair or affect Foothill's rights hereunder in any way
whatsoever, and that, notwithstanding any such consultation (or failure to
consult), Foothill's actions in connection with any such adjustment shall be in
Foothill's sole discretion. Any monies received as payment for any loss under
any insurance policy including the insurance policies mentioned above, shall be
paid over to Foothill to be applied at the option of Foothill either to the
prepayment of the Obligations without premium, in such order or manner as
Foothill may elect, or shall be disbursed to Borrowers under stage payment terms
satisfactory to Foothill for application to the cost of repairs, replacements,
or restorations. All repairs, replacements, or restorations shall be effected
with reasonable promptness and shall be of a value at least equal to the value
of the items or property destroyed prior to such damage or destruction. Upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default, Foothill shall have the right to apply all
prepaid premiums to the payment of the Obligations in such order or form as
Foothill shall determine.
(f) Neither Borrower shall take out separate insurance
concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required to be
maintained under this Section 6.10, unless Foothill is included thereon as named
------------
insured with the loss payable to Foothill under a standard California 438BFU
(NS) Mortgagee endorsement, or its local equivalent. Each Borrower immediately
shall notify Foothill whenever such separate insurance is taken out, specifying
the insurer thereunder and full particulars as to the policies evidencing the
same, and originals of such policies immediately shall be provided to Foothill.
6.11 NO SETOFFS OR COUNTERCLAIMS. Make payments hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents by or on behalf of either or both of Borrowers without
setoff or counterclaim and free and clear of, and without deduction or
withholding for or on account of, any federal, state, or local taxes.
59
6.12 LOCATION OF INVENTORY AND EQUIPMENT. Keep the Inventory and
Equipment only at the locations identified on Schedule 6.12; provided, however,
------------- -------- -------
that Borrowers may amend Schedule 6.12 so long as such amendment occurs by
-------------
written notice to Foothill not less than 30 days prior to the date on which the
Inventory or Equipment is moved to such new location, so long as such new
location is within the continental United States, and so long as, at the time of
such written notification, Borrowers provide any financing statements or fixture
filings necessary to perfect and continue perfected Foothill's security
interests in such assets and also provides to Foothill a Collateral Access
Agreement.

applicable laws, rules, regulations, and orders of any governmental authority,

both of Borrowers' properties and assets are bound, unless such payments are the

fails timely to make payment of such rents and other amounts payable when due
under its leases, Foothill shall be entitled, in its discretion, to reserve an
amount equal to such unpaid amounts against the Borrowing Base.

Borrowers to fail, to make any required contribution or payment to any

under Section 401(a)(29) of the IRC; or
(h) withdraw, or permit any Subsidiary of either or both of
Borrowers to withdraw, from any Multiemployer Plan where such withdrawal is
66

Borrowers, any of their respective Subsidiaries or any ERISA Affiliate in excess
of $250,000.

hereafter to any one or more of such entities becomes a Lien, whether ▇▇▇▇▇▇ or
otherwise, upon any of either or both of Borrowers' properties or assets and the
same is not paid on the payment date thereof;
8.9 If a judgment or other claim in the amount of $300,000 or more,

9. FOOTHILL'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.
9.1 RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence, and during the
continuation, of an Event of Default Foothill may, at its election, without
notice of its election and without demand, do any one or more of the following,
all of which are authorized by each Borrower:
70
(a) Declare all Obligations, whether evidenced by this Agreement, by
any of the other Loan Documents, or otherwise, immediately due and payable;
(b) Cease advancing money or extending credit to or for the benefit
of either or both of Borrowers under this Agreement, under any of the Loan
Documents, or under any other agreement between either or both of Borrowers and
Foothill;
(c) Terminate this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents as
to any future liability or obligation of Foothill, but without affecting
Foothill's rights and security interests in the Personal Property Collateral or
the Real Property Collateral and without affecting the Obligations;
(d) Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account
Debtors for amounts and upon terms which Foothill considers advisable, and in
such cases, Foothill will credit the appropriate Borrower's Loan Account with
only the net amounts received by Foothill in payment of such disputed Accounts
after deducting all Foothill Expenses incurred or expended in connection
therewith;
(e) Cause each Borrower to hold all returned Inventory in trust for
Foothill, segregate all returned Inventory from all other property of such
Borrower or in such Borrower's possession and conspicuously label said returned
Inventory as the property of Foothill;
(f) Without notice to or demand upon either or both of Borrowers or
any guarantor, make such payments and do such acts as Foothill considers
necessary or reasonable to protect its security interests in the Collateral.
Each Borrower agrees to assemble the Personal Property Collateral if Foothill so
requires, and to make the Personal Property Collateral available to Foothill as
Foothill may designate. Each Borrower authorizes Foothill to enter the premises
where the Personal Property Collateral is located, to take and maintain
possession of the Personal Property Collateral, or any part of it, and to pay,
purchase, contest, or compromise any encumbrance, charge, or Lien that in
Foothill's determination appears to conflict with its security interests and to
pay all expenses incurred in connection therewith. With respect to any of each
Borrower's owned or leased premises, such Borrower hereby grants Foothill a
license to enter into possession of such premises and to occupy the same,
without charge, for up to 120 days in order to exercise any of Foothill's rights
or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity, or otherwise;
71
(g) Without notice to either or both of Borrowers (such notice being
expressly waived), and without constituting a retention of any collateral in
satisfaction of an obligation (within the meaning of Section 9505 of the Code),
set off and apply to the Obligations any and all (i) balances and deposits of
either or both of Borrowers held by Foothill (including any amounts received in
the Lockbox Accounts), or (ii) indebtedness at any time owing to or for the
credit or the account of either or both of Borrowers held by Foothill;
(h) Hold, as cash collateral, any and all balances and deposits of
either or both of Borrowers held by Foothill, and any amounts received in the
Lockbox Accounts, to secure the full and final repayment of all of the
Obligations;
(i) Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare
for sale, advertise for sale, and sell (in the manner provided for herein) the
Personal Property Collateral. Foothill is hereby granted a license or other
right to use, without charge, each Borrower's labels, patents, copyrights,
rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service
marks, and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it
pertains to the Personal Property Collateral, in completing production of,
advertising for sale, and selling any Personal Property Collateral and each
Borrower's rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to
Foothill's benefit;
(j) Sell the Personal Property Collateral at either a public or
private sale, or both, by way of one or more contracts or transactions, for cash
or on terms, in such manner and at such places (including each Borrower's
premises) as Foothill determines is commercially reasonable. It is not
necessary that the Personal Property Collateral be present at any such sale;
(k) Foothill shall give notice of the disposition of the Personal
Property Collateral as follows:
(1) Foothill shall give each Borrower and each holder of a
security interest in the Personal Property Collateral who has filed with
Foothill a written request for notice, a notice in writing of the time and place
of public sale, or, if the sale is a private sale or some other disposition
other than a public sale is to be made of the Personal Property Collateral, then
the time on or after which the private sale or other disposition is to be made;
(2) The notice shall be personally delivered or mailed, postage
prepaid, to each Borrower as provided in Section 12, at least 5 days before
----------
72
the date fixed for the sale, or at least 5 days before the date on or after
which the private sale or other disposition is to be made; no notice needs to be
given prior to the disposition of any portion of the Personal Property
Collateral that is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or that
is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market. Notice to Persons other
than the Borrowers claiming an interest in the Personal Property Collateral
shall be sent to such addresses as they have furnished to Foothill;
(3) If the sale is to be a public sale, Foothill also shall give
notice of the time and place by publishing a notice one time at least 5 days
before the date of the sale in a newspaper of general circulation in the county
in which the sale is to be held;
(l) Foothill may credit bid and purchase at any public sale; and
(m) Any deficiency that exists after disposition of the Personal
Property Collateral as provided above will be paid immediately by Borrowers.
Any excess will be returned, without interest and subject to the rights of third
Persons, by Foothill to Borrowers.
9.2 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. Foothill's rights and remedies under this
Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative.
Foothill shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as
provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Foothill of one
right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Foothill of any
Event of Default shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Foothill shall
constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it.
10. TAXES AND EXPENSES.
If either or both of Borrowers fail to pay any monies (whether taxes,
assessments, insurance premiums, or, in the case of leased properties or assets,
rents or other amounts payable under such leases) due to third Persons, or fails
to make any deposits or furnish any required proof of payment or deposit, all as
required under the terms of this Agreement, then, to the extent that Foothill
determines that such failure by such Borrower could result in a Material Adverse
Change, in its discretion and without prior notice to Borrowers, Foothill may do
any or all of the following: (a) make payment of the same or any part thereof;
(b) set up such reserves in the appropriate Borrower's Loan Account as Foothill
deems necessary to protect Foothill
73
from the exposure created by such failure; or (c) obtain and maintain insurance
policies of the type described in Section 6.10, and take any action with respect
------------
to such policies as Foothill deems prudent. Any such amounts paid by Foothill
shall constitute Foothill Expenses. Any such payments made by Foothill shall not
constitute an agreement by Foothill to make similar payments in the future or a
waiver by Foothill of any Event of Default under this Agreement. Foothill need
not inquire as to, or contest the validity of, any such expense, tax, or Lien
and the receipt of the usual official notice for the payment thereof shall be
conclusive evidence that the same was validly due and owing.
11. WAIVERS; INDEMNIFICATION.
11.1 DEMAND; PROTEST; ETC. Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of
protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment,
nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal
of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees at any time
held by Foothill on which such Borrower may in any way be liable.
11.2 FOOTHILL'S LIABILITY FOR COLLATERAL. So long as Foothill
complies with its obligations, if any, under Section 9207 of the Code, Foothill
shall not in any way or manner be liable or responsible for: (a) the
safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage thereto occurring or
arising in any manner or fashion from any cause; (c) any diminution in the value
thereof; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee,
forwarding agency, or other Person. All risk of loss, damage, or destruction of
the Collateral shall be borne by Borrowers.
11.3 INDEMNIFICATION. Each Borrower shall pay, indemnify, defend, and
hold Foothill, each Participant, and each of their respective officers,
directors, employees, counsel, agents, and attorneys-in-fact (each, an
"Indemnified Person") harmless (to the fullest extent permitted by law) from and
against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, investigations,
proceedings, and damages, and all reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements
and other costs and expenses actually incurred in connection therewith (as and
when they are incurred and irrespective of whether suit is brought), at any time
asserted against, imposed upon, or incurred by any of them in connection with or
as a result of or related to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance,
and administration of this Agreement and any other Loan Documents or the
transactions contemplated herein, and with respect to any investigation,
litigation, or proceeding related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or
the use of the proceeds of the credit provided hereunder (irrespective of
whether any Indemnified Person is a party thereto), or any act, omission, event
or circumstance in any manner
74
related thereto (all the foregoing, collectively, the "Indemnified
Liabilities"). Borrowers shall have no obligation to any Indemnified Person
under this Section 11.3 with respect to any Indemnified Liability that a court
------------
of competent jurisdiction finally determines to have resulted from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person. This provision
shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment of the
Obligations.
12. NOTICES.
Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, all notices or demands by
any party relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be in
