Third Amended and Restated ABL Credit Agreement

On June 4, 2024, the Company’s subsidiaries, G-III Leather Fashions, Inc., Riviera Sun, Inc., AM Retail Group, Inc. and The Donna Karan Company Store LLC (collectively, the “Borrowers”), entered into the third amended and restated credit agreement (the “Third ABL Credit Agreement”) with the lenders named therein and with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent. The Third ABL Credit Agreement is a five-year senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility providing for borrowings in an aggregate principal amount of up to $700 million. The Company and certain of its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, as well as G-III Apparel Canada ULC (collectively, the “Guarantors”), are guarantors under the Third ABL Credit Agreement.

The Third ABL Credit Agreement amends and restates the Second Amended Credit Agreement, dated as of August 7, 2020 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time prior to June 4, 2024, the “Second Credit Agreement”), by and among the Borrowers and the Guarantors, the lenders from time-to-time party thereto, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., in its capacity as the administrative agent thereunder. The Second Credit Agreement provided for borrowings of up to $650 million and was due to expire on August 7, 2025. The Third ABL Credit Agreement extends the maturity date to June 2029, subject to a springing maturity date as defined within the credit agreement.

Amounts available under the Third ABL Credit Agreement are subject to borrowing base formulas and overadvances as specified in the Third ABL Credit Agreement. Borrowings bear interest, at the Borrowers’ option, at Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus a margin of 1.50% to 2.00%, or the alternate base rate plus a margin of 0.50% to 1.00% (defined as the greatest of (i) the “prime rate” of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. from time to time, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5% and (iii) SOFR for a borrowing with an interest period of one month plus 1.00%), with the applicable margin determined based on the Borrowers’ average daily availability under the Third ABL Credit Agreement. The Third ABL Credit Agreement is secured by specified assets of the Borrowers and the Guarantors.
