1.2 Handling of Proceeds of Collateral; Cash Dominion. Section 3.2 is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

3.2 Handling of Proceeds of Collateral; Cash Dominion.

(a) Collection of Accounts and Other Proceeds. The Companies, at their expense, will enforce and collect payments and other amounts owing on all Accounts in the ordinary course of the Companies’ business subject to the terms hereof. The Companies agree to direct their account debtors to send payments on all Accounts directly to the Agent Lockbox or other lockbox associated with a

 

2


Depository Account, and to include on all of the Companies’ invoices the address of the Agent Lockbox or such other lockbox, as the sole address for remittance of payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to Section 3.2(b) below, should any Company ever receive any payment on an Account or other Proceeds of the sale or other disposition of Collateral, including checks, cash, receipts from credit card sales and receipts, notes or other instruments or property with respect to any Collateral, such Company agrees to hold such proceeds in trust for the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, separate from such Company’s other property and funds, and to deposit such proceeds directly into a Depository Account as promptly as practicable following receipt, but in no event later than the next Business Day; provided, however, with respect to credit card receipts due from American Express, until the Agent requires that all sums due to the Companies from American Express be deposited directly to a Depository Account or the Agent’s Bank Account pursuant to Section 3.2(g) of this Financing Agreement, the Companies shall deposit such credit card receipts directly into a Depository Account no later than the end of the week in which such payment is received or as more frequently as the Agent shall require.

(b) Collection of Proceeds of Inventory by Retail Domestic Subsidiaries. If and for so long as Net Availability is more than $30 million, and no Event of Default exists, the provisions of Section 3.2(a) hereof shall not apply to payments received by a Retail Domestic Subsidiary (including checks, cash, and receipts from credit card sales) from the sale or other disposition of Inventory, provided that (i) such Retail Domestic Subsidiary establishes and maintains one or more separate bank accounts into which it deposits all such payments, (ii) such Retail Domestic Subsidiary causes the funds in such separate bank account to be transferred from time to time to a Depository Account maintained by the Retail Holding Subsidiary, and (iii) in all events, credit card sales by a Domestic Retail Subsidiary shall be handled in the manner set forth in Section 3.2(g) below. If and for so long as Net Availability is less than $30 million, or an Event of Default exists, each Retail Domestic Subsidiary shall comply with the provisions of Sections 3.2(a) and 3.2(f) hereof.

(c) Transfer of Funds from Depository Account. Funds remaining on deposit in a Depository Account shall be transferred as follows: (i) if and for so long as Net Availability is less than $30 million, or an Event of Default exists, such funds shall be transferred to the Agent’s Bank Account on each Business Day in accordance with the terms and provisions of the applicable Depository Account Control Agreement; and (ii) if and for so long as Net Availability is more than $30 million, and no Event of Default exists, such funds shall be transferred to an account of the Companies as the Funds Administrator shall direct in accordance with the terms and provisions of the applicable Depository Account Control Agreement. The Agent and the Companies agree to take all actions

 

3


reasonably necessary or requested by the other party or by any bank at which a Depository Account is maintained in order to effectuate the transfer of funds in this manner.

(d) Transfer of Funds from Agent Lockbox. All items of payment constituting Proceeds of Collateral which are received by the Agent in the Agent Lockbox shall be applied to the Obligations in accordance with Section 3.5 hereof.

(e) Receipt of Funds by the Agent. Subject to charges for Collection Days, all items received from a Depository Account or in the Agent Lockbox and deposited into the Agent’s Bank Account will, for purposes of calculating Net Availability and interest, be credited to the Revolving Loan Account on the date of deposit in the Agent’s Bank Account. No checks, drafts or other instruments received by the Agent shall constitute final payment to the Agent unless and until such instruments have actually been collected.

(f) New Depository Accounts. Each Company (except for a Company that is a Retail Domestic Subsidiary if and for so long as Net Availability is more than $30 million and no Event of Default exists) agrees not to open any lockbox or new bank account into which Proceeds of Collateral are to be delivered or deposited unless concurrently with the opening of such lockbox and/or bank account, the Agent, such Company and the bank which will maintain such lockbox or at which such account will be maintained, execute a Depository Account Control Agreement with respect to such lockbox and/or related bank account. Upon compliance with the terms set forth above, such lockbox and/or bank account shall constitute a Depository Account for purposes of this Financing Agreement.

(g) Credit Card Receipts. Each Company agrees, promptly upon the Agent’s request, to direct all credit card processors handling proceeds of sale of such Company’s Inventory to transfer all funds due to such Company pursuant to such arrangement directly to a Depository Account or to the Agent’s Bank Account. Promptly after the establishment of any credit card processing or depository relationship, the Companies agree to notify the Agent in writing of the establishment of such relationship and, promptly upon the Agent’s request, shall cause the credit card processor to execute and deliver to the Agent an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, pursuant to which the credit card processor agrees to deposit all sums due to the Companies (or any of them) pursuant to such arrangement directly to a Depository Account or the Agent’s Bank Account.
