FOURTH AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT

This Fourth Amendment to Credit Agreement (this “Amendment”) is made as of March 20, 2014, by and among:

SPORTSMAN’S WAREHOUSE, INC., a Utah corporation (the “Lead Borrower”);

the Persons named on Schedule I hereto (together with the Lead Borrower, individually, a “Borrower”, and collectively, the “Borrowers”);

the Persons named on Schedule II hereto (individually, a “Guarantor”, and collectively, the “Guarantors”, and together with the Borrowers, individually, a “Loan Party”, and collectively, the “Loan Parties”);

the LENDERS party hereto; and

WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (as successor by merger to Wells Fargo Retail Finance, LLC), as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, and Swing Line Lender;

in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and benefits to be derived herefrom.

W I T N E S S E T H:

A. Reference is made to a certain Credit Agreement, dated as of May 28, 2010 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified and in effect from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among (i) the Lead Borrower, as representative for the Borrowers from time to time party thereto, (ii) the Borrowers from time to time party thereto, (iii) Sportsman’s Warehouse Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Parent”) and the other Guarantors from time to time party thereto, (iv) the Lenders from time to time party thereto, and (v) Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Swing Line Lender. All capitalized terms used herein, and not otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement.

B. The Loan Parties have advised the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that (i) on March 7, 2014, the Parent filed a Form S-1 Registration Statement with the SEC, pursuant to which the Parent provided notice of its intention to make an initial public offering of shares of Parent’s common stock (such transaction, the “Parent IPO”); and (ii) the Parent intends to use the Net Cash Proceeds from the Parent IPO to repay the principal amount outstanding under the Term Loans, with any remaining proceeds (after payment in full of the Term Loans) to be used for general corporate purposes to the extent permitted by Section 7.11 of the Credit Agreement.

C. The consummation of the Parent IPO would constitute a Prepayment Event and, pursuant to Section 2.05(e) of the Credit Agreement, the Net Cash Proceeds thereof are required to be used to prepay the Loans and Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations. Accordingly, the Loan Parties have requested that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree to amend certain terms of the Credit Agreement to permit the Net Cash Proceeds from the Parent IPO to be used to prepay the Term Loans. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders are willing to do so, in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.


WHEREAS, the parties hereto have agreed to amend certain provisions of the Credit Agreement as set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

1. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in Credit Agreement unless otherwise defined herein.

 

2. Amendments to Article I of Credit Agreement. The provisions of Article I of the Credit Agreement are hereby amended as follows:

 

  (a) By adding the following new definition of “Parent IPO” in its appropriate alphabetical order:

Parent IPO” means the initial public offering of the Equity Interests of the Parent as described in a Form S-1 Registration Statement filed by the Parent on March 7, 2014 with the SEC.

 

  (b) By amending and restating clause (c) of the definition of “Prepayment Event” in its entirety as follows:

(c) The issuance by a Loan Party of any Equity Interests, other than any such issuance of Equity Interests (i) to a Loan Party, (ii) as consideration for a Permitted Acquisition, (iii) as a compensatory issuance to any employee, director, or consultant (including under any option plan), or (iv) by the Parent pursuant to the Parent IPO;

 

3. Amendment to Article VII of Credit Agreement. The provisions of Article VII of the Credit Agreement are hereby amended by amending and restating clause (e) from Section 7.07 thereof as follows:

(e) (i) so long as the Payment Conditions shall have been satisfied, voluntary prepayments of principal with respect to the Term Loan Obligations, and (ii) to the extent made solely with Net Cash Proceeds from the Parent IPO and so long as no Event of Default then exists or would result therefrom, other voluntary prepayments of principal with respect to the Term Loan Obligations,

 

4.

Ratification of Loan Documents. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, the Security Agreement, the Facility Guaranty and the other Loan Documents remain in full force and effect. Without limiting the foregoing, the Loan Parties hereby expressly acknowledge and agree that nothing

  contained herein shall constitute a consent by any of the Credit Parties to any transaction which would constitute an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement. The Loan Parties hereby ratify, confirm, and reaffirm that all representations and warranties of the Loan Parties contained in the Credit Agreement, the Security Agreement and each other Loan Document are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof, except to the extent that (x) such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date, or (y) such representations and warranties are subject to “materiality” or “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language, in which case they are true and correct in all respects. The Guarantors hereby acknowledge, confirm and agree that the Guaranteed Obligations of the Guarantors under, and as defined in, the Facility Guaranty include, without limitation, all Obligations of the Loan Parties at any time and from time to time outstanding under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as such Obligations have been amended pursuant to this Amendment. The Loan Parties hereby acknowledge, confirm and agree that the Security Documents and any and all Collateral previously pledged to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Credit Parties, pursuant thereto, shall continue to secure all applicable Obligations of the Loan Parties at any time and from time to time outstanding under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

  (b) This Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party. This Amendment constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party, enforceable against each Loan Party in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
