Except as Agent and Term Loan Lenders may otherwise agree, each Term Loan Lender shall make the amount of such Term Loan Lender’s Term Loan available to Agent in immediately available funds by no later than 12:00 noon New York time on the Fourth Amendment Effective Date. After Agent’s receipt of the proceeds, Agent shall make the proceeds of the Term Loan available to Borrowers as provided in Section 6.5 hereof. The Term Loan shall be (i) repaid, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other Obligations outstanding with respect thereto (other than contingent indemnification obligations and other contingent Obligations related thereto which expressly survive the repayment of the Term Loan), in accordance with this Agreement, any Registered Term Note, and the other Financing Agreements, and (ii) secured by all of the Collateral.

(b)  The proceeds of the Term Loan, together with cash held by Borrowers, shall be used on the Fourth Amendment Effective Date to repay in full the Existing Term Loan and all accrued interest and fees related thereto. Borrower hereby authorizes and directs the disbursement of the proceeds of the Term Loan, together with cash it has in its deposit accounts on the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, to make the payments to the parties set forth on Exhibit B to the Fourth Amendment.

(c)  On and after the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, the principal amount of the Term Loan shall be repaid in thirteen (13) consecutive quarterly installments (or earlier as provided herein) payable on the first day of each calendar quarter commencing April 1, 2006, of which (i) the first twelve (12) installments shall each be in the amount of $1,500,000 and (ii) the last installment shall be in the amount of the entire unpaid principal amount of the Term Loan, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other Obligations with respect thereto (other than contingent indemnification obligations and other contingent Obligations related thereto which expressly survive the repayment of the Term Loan), shall be due and payable on the earlier of (A) the Term Loan Maturity Date, or (B) the date of termination of this Agreement, whether by its terms, by prepayment, or by acceleration. Subject to the provisions of Sections 2.6(d) and (e) below, the Term Loan may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty, but once repaid may not be reborrowed.

Upon the registration of a Term Loan, any promissory note (other than a Registered Term Note) evidencing the same shall be null and void and shall be returned to Borrowers. Borrowers agree, at the request of the Required Term Loan Lenders, to execute and deliver to Term Loan Lenders a promissory note in registered form to evidence such Registered Term Loan (i.e., containing registered note language) and registered as provided in Section 14.7(b) hereof (a “Registered Term Note”), payable to the order of each Term Loan Lender and otherwise duly completed. Once recorded on the Register, the Obligations evidenced by such Registered Term Note may not be removed from the Register so long as it remains outstanding, and a Registered Term Note may not be exchanged for a promissory note that is not a Registered Term Note.

(f)  Within ten (10) days following the receipt by Borrowers of the Net Cash Proceeds from the incurrence or issuance by Borrowers of any Indebtedness for borrowed money described in clause (a) of the definition of Indebtedness on or after the date of the Fourth Amendment (which shall exclude for purposes of this Section 2.3(f) the Indebtedness permitted under Sections 9.9(e), (f), (g), (h) and (i)), Borrowers shall, absolutely and unconditionally and without notice or demand, prepay the then outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan in an amount equal to fifty (50%) percent of the amount by which such Net Cash Proceeds exceed $20,000,000; provided, that, in the event that all or a portion of the Net Cash Proceeds from the incurrence or issuance of such Indebtedness is used by Borrowers to build a distribution center, such prepayment shall be in an amount equal to fifty (50%) percent of the amount by which such Net Cash Proceeds exceed the sum of (x) the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds used by Borrowers to build such distribution center (up to $30,000,000), and (y) $20,000,000.

(h)  In the event that at any time on or after July 1, 2006 (i) the sum of Borrowers’ Excess Availability and Qualified Cash is at any time less than $50,000,000, and (ii) EBITDA of Borrowers when calculated for the twelve (12) consecutive fiscal month period most recently ended for which Agent has received financial statements of Borrowers is less than $65,000,000, within ten (10) days thereafter, Borrowers shall, absolutely and unconditionally without notice or demand, prepay the then outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan in an amount such that, after giving effect thereto, the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan shall be equal to $25,000,000, provided, that,

(A)  in the event that as of any date that such mandatory prepayment is due as set forth above, the conditions to optional prepayments by Borrowers in respect of the Term Loan set forth in Section 2.3(d)(i) above would not be satisfied after giving effect to such mandatory prepayment, then payments in respect of such mandatory prepayment shall instead be due and payable on each date thereafter that all or any portion of such mandatory prepayment otherwise due on the date set forth above may be made to the extent that after giving effect thereto the conditions to optional prepayments in Section 2.3(d)(i) would be satisfied, and Borrowers shall make such payments in respect of such mandatory prepayment until the aggregate amount of all of such payments equals the amount required to have been paid as of the original due date for such mandatory prepayment;

9

(B)  in the event that Borrowers are not required to make a mandatory prepayment under this Section 2.3(h) on the due date as set forth above, then on and after such due date, the amount of the minimum Excess Availability that Borrowers are required to maintain under Section 9.17 hereof shall be increased by the amount of the mandatory prepayment that would have otherwise been paid under this Section 2.3(h) on the such due date, provided, that, (1) the amount of the minimum Excess Availability required to be maintained under Section 9.17 shall thereafter be reduced to the extent of payments received by Agent in respect of such mandatory prepayment as provided in clause (A) above, and (2) in no event shall the amount of the minimum Excess Availability that Borrowers are required to maintain under Section 9.17 hereof be reduced to less than $7,500,000.

(i)  Each such prepayment required pursuant to clauses (f) and (g) of this Section 2.3 shall be accompanied by a certificate signed by each Borrower’s chief financial officer certifying the manner in which the Net Cash Proceeds from the transactions described in (f) and (g) of this Section 2.3 and the resulting prepayment were calculated.

(j)  Each prepayment of principal under this Section 2.3 shall be made together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of such prepayment. Each prepayment set forth in this Section 2.3 shall be applied against the remaining installments (if any) of principal due on the Term Loan in the inverse order of maturity, and to the extent that the Term Loan has been repaid in full, Agent shall apply such amounts to the Obligations, whether or not then due, in such order or manner as Agent shall determine, or at Agent’s option, to be held as cash collateral for the Obligations. Nothing contained in this Section 2.3 shall be construed to constitute a consent, implied or otherwise, to any such issuance, incurrence or sale otherwise prohibited by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.”

Upon the Renewal Date or any other effective date of termination of the Financing Agreements, Borrowers shall pay to Agent all outstanding and unpaid Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations and other contingent Obligations which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements) and shall furnish cash collateral to Agent (or at Agent’s option, a letter of credit issued for the account of Borrowers and at Borrowers’ expense, in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, by an issuer acceptable to Agent and payable to Agent as beneficiary) in such amounts as Agent determines are reasonably necessary to secure Agent, Lenders and Issuing Bank from loss, cost, damage or expense, including attorneys’ fees and expenses, in connection with any contingent

12

Obligations, including issued and outstanding Letter of Credit Accommodations and checks or other payments provisionally credited to the Obligations and/or as to which Agent or any Lender has not yet received final payment and any continuing obligations of Agent or any Lender pursuant to any Deposit Account Control Agreement. The amount of such cash collateral (or letter of credit, as Agent may determine) as to any Letter of Credit Accommodations shall be in the amount equal to one hundred ten (110%) percent of the amount of the Letter of Credit Accommodations plus the amount of any fees and expenses payable in connection therewith through the end of the latest expiration date of the Letters of Credit giving rise to such Letter of Credit Accommodations. Such payments in respect of the Obligations and cash collateral shall be remitted by wire transfer in Federal funds to the Agent Payment Account or such other bank account of Agent, as Agent may, in its discretion, designate in writing to Borrowers for such purpose. Interest shall be due until and including the next Business Day, if the amounts so paid by Borrowers to the Agent Payment Account or other bank account designated by Agent are received in such bank account later than 12:00 noon, New York time.

SCHEDULE 18 TO THE INFORMATION

CERTIFICATE OF LERNER NEW YORK, INC.

The following replaces Section 18 of the Information Certificate of Lerner New York, Inc. dated March 16, 2004:

AMENDED AND RESTATED SCHEDULE 25 TO THE

INFORMATION CERTIFICATE OF LERNER NEW YORK, INC.

Litigation

A case has been filed by the Center for Environmental Health against Lerner New York, Inc. and several other retailers of jewelry products in California. It alleges that lead in one of Lerner New York, Inc.’s jewelry products (a metal charm necklace suspended on a flexible cord) sold in California violates the state’s Proposition 65 statute, which precludes the sale of products in California that results in exposure to listed chemicals absent a specified warning label. The case is a companion case to two similar cases filed by the California Attorney General and an organization called As You Sow against several retail outlets selling such jewelry.

The Company was not named as a party in either of the companion cases, but the matters have been consolidated for pre-trial purposes. Violation of the statute exposes the seller to fines as well as injunctive relief. The complaint does not include a request for a specific fine amount. The case against Lerner New York, Inc. is in the process of mediation that is intended to resolve the case without substantial additional litigation.

There are other various claims, lawsuits and pending actions against the Company arising in the normal course of the Company’s business. It is the opinion of management that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Dated as of January 4, 2006

Each of the undersigned, being a Guarantor (each a “Guarantor” and collectively, the “Guarantors”) under their respective Amended and Restated Guaranty and Security Agreements, each dated as of March 16, 2004, as heretofore amended, made in favor of Agent (as amended, modified or supplemented, each a “Guaranty” and collectively, the “Guaranties”), hereby (a) acknowledges and agrees to the foregoing Fourth Amendment to Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, dated of even date herewith (the “Amendment”), and (b) confirms and agrees that its Guaranty is and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects except that upon the effectiveness of and on and after the date of the Amendment, each reference in such Guaranty to the Loan Agreement (as defined in the Amendment), “thereunder”, “thereof’ or words of similar import referring to the “Loan Agreement”, shall mean and be a reference to the Loan Agreement as amended or modified by the Amendment. Although Agent has informed Guarantors of the amendments to the Loan Agreement as set forth above, and Guarantors have acknowledged the same, each Guarantor understands and agrees that none of Agent, Documentation Agent or any Lender has any duty under the Loan Agreement, the Guaranties or any other agreement with any Guarantor to so notify any Guarantor or to seek such an acknowledgement, and nothing contained herein is intended to or shall create such a duty as to any advances or transaction hereafter.
