FIRST AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT AND FIRST AMENDMENT TO COLLATERAL AGREEMENT

FIRST AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT AND FIRST AMENDMENT TO COLLATERAL AGREEMENT, dated as of February 26, 2013 (collectively, this “First Amendment”), among OLLIE’S HOLDINGS, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Ollie’s Holdings”), OLLIE’S BARGAIN OUTLET, INC., a Pennsylvania corporation (“Ollie’s” and, together with Ollie’s Holdings, the “Borrowers”), BARGAIN PARENT, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), the Lenders (as defined in the Credit Agreement referred to below) party hereto and MANUFACTURERS AND TRADERS TRUST COMPANY, as administrative agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”). All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings provided to such terms in the Credit Agreement referred to below.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Parent, the Borrowers, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the other parties thereto are parties to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of September 28, 2012 (the “Credit Agreement”);

WHEREAS, Parent, the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and each Lender party hereto desire to amend the Credit Agreement to permit Ollie’s and Ollie’s Holdings to pay the Special Dividend (as defined below) to Parent and to make certain other changes to the Credit Agreement and the Collateral Agreement, in each case, as provided herein; and

WHEREAS, concurrently with the effectiveness of this First Amendment, Parent, the Borrowers, the Lenders party thereto and the Term Agent intend to amend (the “Term Facility Amendment”) the Term Facility to make certain changes to the Term Facility, including to permit the payment of the Special Dividend.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is acknowledged by each party hereto, it is agreed:

 

I. Amendments to Credit Agreement.

A. Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

1. the definition of “Secured Bank Product Obligations” is hereby amended by inserting the following proviso immediately before the period appearing at the end of such definition:

“; provided that in no event shall an Excluded Swap Obligation constitute a Secured Bank Product Obligation.”

2. the definition of “Secured Obligations” is hereby amended by inserting the following parenthetical “(other than Excluded Swap Obligations)” immediately after the text “Secured Bank Product Obligations” contained therein; and


3. by inserting in the appropriate alphabetical order the following new definitions:

Commodity Exchange Act” shall mean the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.).

ECP” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the definition of Excluded Swap Obligation.

Excluded Swap Obligation” shall mean, with respect to any Loan Party, any Swap Obligation if, and to the extent that, all or a portion of the Guarantee of such Loan Party of, or the grant by such Loan Party of a security interest to secure, such Swap Obligation (or any Guarantee thereof) is or becomes illegal under the Commodity Exchange Act or any rule, regulation or order of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (or the application or official interpretation of any thereof) by virtue of such Loan Party’s failure for any reason to constitute an “eligible contract participant” as defined in the Commodity Exchange Act and the regulations thereunder (each an “ECP”) at the time the Guarantee of such Loan Party or the grant of such security interest becomes effective with respect to such Swap Obligation. If a Swap Obligation arises under a master agreement governing more than one swap, such exclusion shall apply only to the portion of such Swap Obligation that is attributable to swaps for which such Guaranty or security interest is or becomes illegal.

First Amendment” shall mean the First Amendment to Credit Agreement and First Amendment to Collateral Agreement, dated as of February 26, 2013, among Parent, the Borrowers, the Lenders party thereto and the Administrative Agent.

First Amendment Effective Date” shall mean the date on which the First Amendment is effective pursuant to the terms thereof.

Qualified ECP Guarantor” shall mean, in respect of any Swap Obligation, each Loan Party that has total assets exceeding $10,000,000 at the time the relevant Guaranty or grant of the relevant security interest becomes effective with respect to such Swap Obligation is incurred or such other person as constitutes an ECP under the Commodity Exchange Act or any regulations promulgated thereunder and can cause another person to qualify as an ECP at such time by entering into a keepwell under Section 1(a)(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

Special Dividend” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section 6.06(m).

Swap Obligation” shall mean, with respect to any Loan Party, any obligation to pay or perform under any Swap Agreement to the extent that such Swap Agreement constitutes a “swap” within the meaning of Section 1a(47) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

B. Section 6.06 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by (i) deleting the word “and” appearing at the end of clause (k) thereof, (ii) deleting the period appearing at the end of clause (l) thereof and inserting “; and” in lieu thereof and (iii) adding the following new clause (m) thereto:

“(m) as soon as reasonably practicable after the First Amendment Effective Date, Ollie’s may use the proceeds of the Incremental Term Loans to pay a cash dividend to Ollie’s Holdings which in turn may use the proceeds of the Incremental Term Loans and/or the proceeds received from Ollie’s as provided herein to pay a cash dividend to Parent in an aggregate amount not to exceed $46,200,000 (the “Special Dividend”).”

 

II. Amendments to Collateral Agreement.

A. The definition of “Secured Obligations” appearing in Section 1.1(b) of the Collateral Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the following sentence at the end thereof:

“Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, in no event will the Secured Obligations include any Excluded Swap Obligations.”

B. The Collateral Agreement is hereby further amended by inserting the following new Section 2.8 immediately after Section 2.7 thereof:

“2.8. Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Guarantor to honor all of its obligations under the guarantee contained in this Section 2 in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 2.8 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 2.8, or otherwise under the guarantee contained in this Section 2, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 2.8 shall remain in full force and effect until the Termination Date. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 2.8 constitute, and this Section 2.8 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Guarantor for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.”
