TWELFTH AMENDMENT TO AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

Exhibit 10.101

TWELFTH AMENDMENT TO

AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

This TWELFTH AMENDMENT TO AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”) is dated as of November 16, 2007 (the “Amendment Date”) and entered into by and among BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as lender (the “Lender”), with offices at 55 South Lake Avenue, Suite 900, Pasadena, California 91101, and MEADE INSTRUMENTS CORP., a Delaware corporation, SIMMONS OUTDOOR CORP., a Delaware corporation, and CORONADO INSTRUMENTS, INC., a California corporation (such entities being referred to hereinafter each individually as a “Borrower” and collectively, the “Borrowers”).

WHEREAS, the Lender and the Borrowers have entered into that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of October 25, 2002 (as amended, restated or modified from time to time, the “Agreement”);

WHEREAS, the Borrowers have requested that the Lender amend the Agreement in certain respects and the Lender has agreed to such amendments pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual conditions and agreements set forth in the Agreement and this Amendment, and other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

Definitions

Section 1.01.                             Definitions. Initially capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment have the respective meanings set forth in the Agreement, as amended hereby.

ARTICLE II

Amendments

Section 2.01.                             New Definitions. The following definitions are hereby added to Annex A to the Agreement to read in their entirety as follows:

“Borrower’s Plan” means that certain financial plan prepared by the Borrowers titled “FY08-FY09 Projections 10-31-07 BAC” consisting of balance sheet projections dated as of November 1, 2007 and income statement projections dated as of October 31, 2007 and previously delivered to the Lender.

“EBITDA Reserve” means a reserve to be established and adjusted as follows:

(A) For the first two months of each fiscal quarter, beginning with the month of October 2007, a reserve will be established by the Lender by measuring for each such month the amount of the shortfall, if any, between the monthly EBITDA for that month and the Borrower’s Plan. Such measurement will be based on the Borrower’s month end financial statements for such month (the “Monthly Adjustment”).

(B) At the end of each fiscal quarter beginning with the fiscal quarter ending November 30, 2007 and in lieu of the Monthly Adjustment made to the EBITDA Reserve based on the monthly financing statements as set forth in paragraph (A) above, the Lender will establish or increase the EBITDA Reserve based on the shortfall, if any, between the Borrower’s fiscal quarter EBITDA and the Borrower’s Plan. Such measurement and adjustment will be based on the Borrower’s financial statements received by the Lender after the end of each fiscal quarter (the “Fiscal Quarter Adjustment”). In all cases, the Fiscal Quarter Adjustment made after the end of each quarter will supersede the Monthly Adjustment for such quarter. Any excess for any Fiscal Quarter in EBITDA over the Borrower’s Plan will not reduce any previously created EBITDA Reserve.

(C) By way of illustration, if hypothetically the EBITDA Reserve based upon the Monthly Adjustment during the fiscal quarter ending November 30, 2007 is $100,000 and the Fiscal Quarter Adjustment for the quarter ending November 30, 2007 is $75,000, the EBITDA Reserve, upon the calculation of the Fiscal Quarter Adjustment, will be $75,000. If at the end of the fiscal quarter ending February 29, 2008 the Fiscal Quarter Adjustment is $0, the EBITDA Reserve shall remain at $75,000. If the EBITDA for the fiscal quarter ending February 29, 2008 is in excess over the Borrower’s Plan, the EBITDA Reserve will remain at $75,000. If the Fiscal Quarter Adjustment for the fiscal quarter ending February 29, 2008 is $25,000, the EBITDA Reserve will be increased to $100,000.

Section 2.02.                             Amended Definitions. The following definitions set forth in Annex A to the Agreement are hereby amended and restated in their entirety to read as follows:

“Adjusted Tangible Net Worth” means, at any date:  (a) the book value at which the Adjusted Tangible Assets would be shown on a consolidated balance sheet of the Borrowers at such date prepared in accordance with GAAP; plus (b) non-cash inventory write-downs incurred during October 2007 through January 2008, up to a maximum of $3,000,000; plus, but only to the extent included in Adjusted Tangible Assets, (c) non-cash write-offs of intangible assets incurred during October 2007 through January 2008, up to a maximum of $8,000,000; less (d) the amount at which the consolidated liabilities of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries would be shown on such balance sheet.

“Applicable Margin” means:

(a)                                  with respect to Base Rate Revolving Loans and all other Obligations (other than LIBOR Loans), 2.00%; and

(b)                                 with respect to LIBOR Loans, 4.25%;

2

in each case subject to adjustment, beginning with the receipt by the Lender of the monthly Financial Statements for February 2008, and thereafter from time to time, to the applicable percentage corresponding to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the immediately preceding four fiscal quarters of the Borrowers, as set forth below, respectively:

All adjustments after February 2008 in the Applicable Margin shall be implemented quarterly on a prospective basis, commencing with the first day of the first calendar month that occurs more than 5 days after the receipt by the Lender of the quarterly unaudited or annual draft audited (as applicable) Financial Statements evidencing the need for an adjustment. Concurrently with the delivery of all quarterly Financial Statements, Meade shall deliver to the Lender a certificate, signed by its chief financial officer, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the continuance of, or any change in, the Applicable Margin. Failure to timely deliver such Financial Statements shall, in addition to any other remedy provided for in this Agreement, result in an increase in the Applicable Margin to the highest level set forth in the foregoing grid, until the first day of the first calendar month following the delivery of those Financial Statements demonstrating that such an increase is not required. If a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time any reduction in the Applicable Margin is to be implemented, no reduction may occur until the first day of the first calendar month following the date on which such Default or Event of Default is waived in writing by the Lender or cured (to the extent expressly permitted hereunder to be cured and within the time frame so provided for such cure).

In the event that any audited Financial Statements filed with the SEC vary from the draft or internally prepared Financial Statements used to calculate the Applicable Margin for any period, then any resulting change in the Applicable Margin evidenced by the audited Financial Statements for such period shall be made retroactively to the date when the incorrect Applicable Margin was implemented. If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to any Financial Statements or for any other reason, the Lender determines in its judgment, reasonably exercised, that (a) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio as calculated by Meade as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (b) a proper calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio would have resulted in different pricing for any period, then (i) if the proper calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Borrowers shall automatically and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Lender, promptly on demand by the Lender, an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period; and (ii) if the proper calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio would have resulted in lower pricing for such period, the Lender shall have no obligation to repay any interest or fees to the Borrowers or any other Person; provided that if, as a result of any restatement or other event a proper calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for one or

3

more periods and lower pricing for one or more other periods (due to the shifting of income or expenses form one period to another period or any similar reason), then the amount payable by the Borrowers pursuant to clause (i) above shall be based upon the aggregate net excess (after taking into account all revised higher and revised lower pricing), if any, of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for all applicable periods over the amount of interest and fees paid for all such periods. The retroactive adjustments set forth in this paragraph shall not be applicable to any restatement or adjustment to any Financial Statements occurring one year or more following the payment in full of all Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

“Availability Reserve” means a reserve in the initial amount of $500,000 and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to be reduced to:  (i) $250,000 if the financial covenants set forth in the Agreement are met with the delivery of the monthly unaudited Financial Statements for the month of November 2008; and (ii) zero if the financial covenants set forth in the Agreement are met with the delivery of the monthly unaudited Financial Statements for the month of February 2009. All adjustments in the Availability Reserve shall be implemented on a prospective basis, commencing with the first day of the first calendar month that occurs after the receipt by the Lender of the monthly unaudited Financial Statements evidencing the need for such an adjustment.

“Maximum Revolver Amount” means $25,000,000.

“EBITDA” means, with respect to Meade and its consolidated Subsidiaries, for any period, (a) Adjusted Net Earnings from Operations, plus, to the extent deducted in the determination of Adjusted Net Earnings from Operations for such period, (b) interest expenses, (c) provision for Federal, state, local and foreign income taxes, (d) depreciation, (e) amortization, (f) non-cash compensation costs and ESOP contributions, (g) non-cash inventory write-downs incurred during October 2007 through January 2008, up to a maximum of $3,000,000, and (h) non-cash write-offs of intangible assets incurred during October 2007 through January 2008, up to a maximum of $8,000,000.

“Reserves” means reserves that limit the availability of credit hereunder, consisting of reserves against Availability, Eligible Accounts or Eligible Inventory, established by Lender from time to time in Lender’s reasonable credit judgment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the following reserves shall be deemed to be a reasonable exercise of Lender’s credit judgment: (a) Bank Product Reserves; (b) a reserve for accrued, unpaid interest on the Obligations; (c) reserves for rent at leased locations subject to statutory or contractual landlord liens; (d) the Slow Moving Reserve; (e) the Dilution Adjustment Reserve; (f) warehousemen’s or bailees’ charges; (g) the Working Capital Reserve; (h) the Availability Reserve; and (i) the EBITDA Reserve.

Section 2.03.                             Amendment to Section 1.1. Section 1.1 of the Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:

“1.1                           Total Facility. Subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lender agrees to make available a total credit facility of up to $25,000,000 (the ‘Total Facility’) to the Borrowers from time to time during the term of this Agreement. The Total Facility shall be composed of a revolving line of credit consisting of Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit described herein.”

Notwithstanding the forgoing, if at any time average monthly Availability is less than $5,000,000, but greater than $2,000,000, then the Borrowing Base Certificate shall be delivered on a weekly basis no later than Wednesday for the prior week.
