Credit Agreement

On May 14, 2021, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), which was treated as a modification for accounting purposes. The Credit Agreement originally matured on May 14, 2026 and provided for borrowings of up to $150.0 million that were available under a revolving senior credit facility, with a $5.0 million sublimit for issuance of standby letters of credit, as well as a $10.0 million sublimit for swing line loans. At the Company’s option, the interest rate applicable to the revolving senior credit facility was a floating rate equal to: (i) the Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index rate (“BSBY”) plus the applicable rate of 1.25% to 2.00% determined based on the Company’s rent adjusted leverage ratio, or (ii) the base rate plus the applicable rate of 0.25% to 1.00% based on the Company’s rent adjusted leverage ratio. The Credit Agreement was secured by essentially all Company assets and required the Company to maintain compliance with certain financial and non-financial covenants, including a maximum rent adjusted leverage ratio and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio as defined in the Credit Agreement.

On July 8, 2022, the Company entered into the First Amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment”), which was treated as a modification for accounting purposes. The First Amendment amended the Credit Agreement in order to (i) increase the revolving commitment from $150.0 million to $200.0 million; (ii) extend the maturity date from May 14, 2026 to July 8, 2027; (iii) amend the pricing index to replace BSBY with the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate; and (iv) reduce the commitment fee in some instances.

On January 31, 2025 the Company entered into the Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “Second Amendment”). The Second Amendment amended the Credit Agreement, in part, to (i) decrease the revolving commitment from $200 million to $100 million; (ii) revise the definition of “Applicable Rate” to provide for pricing terms in the event of a Rent Adjusted Leverage Ratio greater than or equal to 3.50:1.0; (iii) limit the exceptions to the prohibition on restricted payments to (a) making dividends or distributions by any subsidiary to the Company, and (b) the acquisition of equity interests in satisfaction of tax withholding obligations associated with restricted stock or awards under employee incentive plans; and (iv) provide that the Maximum Rent Adjusted Leverage Ratio and the Minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio will be measured commencing on the fiscal quarter ending May 2, 2021 and measured quarterly thereafter as of the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Company (other than for the fiscal quarter ending February 2, 2025). The reduction in the revolving commitment rightsized the credit facility with the Company’s cash needs to fund seasonal inventory builds and capital

expenditure expectations and resulted in fee savings. The Credit Agreement was extinguished on April 28, 2025, resulting in a write down of $0.2 million of debt issuance costs related to the terminated line of credit.

On April 28, 2025, the Company entered into a new credit agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”) among the Company, certain financial institutions as Lenders thereto, and BMO Bank N.A., as Administrative Agent, a Swing Line Lender and a Letter of Credit Issuer. The Credit Agreement provides for borrowings of up to $100.0 million in aggregate principal amount that are available under an asset-based revolving senior credit facility (the “Revolver”) with a $10.0 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit.

Under the New Credit Agreement, (i) each Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) loan will bear interest on the outstanding principal amount at a rate per annum equal to adjusted term SOFR plus 150 basis points; (ii) each base rate loan will bear interest on the outstanding principal amount from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) plus 50 basis points; (iii) each swing line loan will bear interest on the outstanding principal amount from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the base rate plus the applicable margin; and (iv) each other obligation will bear interest on the unpaid amount at a rate per annum equal to the base rate plus the applicable margin.

The new $100.0 million Revolver replaces the current revolving credit facility at a lower interest rate and extends the availability of funds to April 28, 2030. The Company believes the New Credit Agreement will provide the Company with flexibility and liquidity to finance seasonal inventory builds.
