Gentlemen:

 

You have advised us that Affinity Group, Inc (“AGI”) recently entered into a tenth amendment (the “Amendment”) to its Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of June 24, 2003, as amended, among AGI, the guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, as syndication agent and as administrative agent and General Electric Capital Corporation, as documentation agent (as amended by the Amendment, the “Senior Secured Credit Agreement”). The Senior Secured Credit Agreement requires an Adams Party (capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Senior Secured Credit Agreement) to loan to AGI, or cause to have loaned to AGI, interest payable under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement on $16,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans outstanding on the date of the Amendment (the “Loan Commitment”). You have advised us that the Loan Commitment is anticipated to aggregate approximately $2 million through the maturity of AGI’s indebtedness under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement.

 

SA Holding LLC (“SAH”) is an affiliate of the Adams Parties, Stephen Adams being the sole owner of SAH.  AGI has requested that SAH make loans to AGI up to the amount of the Loan Commitment.  SAH has agreed to do so on the terms set forth in the promissory note attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Note”).  We acknowledge that the Note is subordinate in right of payment to the obligations of AGI under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement (but not subordinated in right of payment to any other obligation of AGI) and that the Note is unsecured.

 

In order to confirm that the foregoing properly reflects our understanding regarding the Loan Commitment, we would appreciate your executing a copy of this letter, which has been enclosed for that purpose, together with an executed original of the Note.  Upon receipt of such executed counterpart of this letter agreement and the Note, we agree to make loans under the Note upon not less than five business day’s request detailing the amount of the advance and the requested date of funding.  Upon receipt of such executed counterpart, this letter agreement shall constitute a binding loan agreement between us on the terms and conditions contained herein.
