Reference is hereby made to the Note Purchase Agreements dated as of February 27, 2006 as amended and supplemented by the Amendment No. 1 to the Note Purchase Agreements dated June 15, 2007 and the First Supplement dated as of June 15, 2007 (the “First Supplement”) (together, the “Note Purchase Agreement”) among the Obligors and the purchasers listed on Schedule A thereto. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning as specified in the Note Purchase Agreement. Reference is further made to Section 4.13 of the Note Purchase Agreement which requires that, prior to the delivery of any Additional Notes, the Obligors and each Additional Purchaser shall execute and deliver a Supplement.
Each Obligor hereby jointly and severally agrees with the Purchasers as follows:
Section 1. Each Obligor has authorized the issue and sale of $57,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 7.20% Series 2008-A Senior Notes due January 16, 2018 (the “Series 2008-A Notes”). The Series 2008-A Notes, together with the Series 2006-A Notes initially issued pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement and the Series 2007-A Notes issued under the First Supplement and each series of Additional Notes which may from time to time hereafter be issued pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.2 of the Note Purchase Agreement, are collectively referred to as the “Notes” (such term shall also include any such notes issued in substitution therefor pursuant to Section 13 of the Note Purchase Agreement). The Series 2008-A Notes shall be substantially in the form set out in Exhibit 1 hereto with such changes therefrom, if any, as may be approved by the Purchasers and the Obligors.
Section 2. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and as set forth in the Note Purchase Agreement and on the basis of the representations and warranties hereinafter set forth, the Obligors agree to issue and sell to each Purchaser, and each Purchaser agrees to purchase from the Obligors, Series 2008-A Notes in the principal amount set forth opposite such Purchaser’s name on Schedule A hereto at a price of 100% of the principal amount thereof on the closing date hereafter mentioned.
Section 3. The sale and purchase of the Series 2008-A Notes to be purchased by each Purchaser shall occur at the offices of Chapman and Cutler LLP, 111 West Monroe Street, Chicago, Illinois 60603, at 10:00 A.M. Chicago time, at a closing (the “Closing”) on January 16, 2008 or on such other Business Day thereafter on or prior to January 18, 2008 as may be agreed upon by the Company and the Purchasers. At the Closing, the Obligors will deliver to each Purchaser the Series 2008-A Notes to be purchased by such Purchaser in the form of a single Series 2008-A Note (or such greater number of Series 2008-A Notes in denominations of at least $100,000 as such Purchaser may request) dated the date of the Closing and registered in such Purchaser’s name (or in the name of such Purchaser’s nominee), against delivery by such Purchaser to the Obligors or their order of immediately available funds in the amount of the purchase price therefor by wire transfer of immediately available funds for the account of the Company to account number 149401303867 at US Bank, 233 South 13th Street, Lincoln, Nebraska 68508, ABA No. 104000029, Swift Code: USBKUS44IMT, Account Name: Cabela’s Inc. If, at the Closing, the Obligors shall fail to tender such Series 2008-A Notes to any Purchaser as provided above in this Section 3, or any of the conditions specified in Section 4 shall not have been fulfilled to any Purchaser’s satisfaction, such Purchaser shall, at such Purchaser’s election, be relieved of all further obligations under this Agreement, without thereby waiving any rights such Purchaser may have by reason of such failure or such nonfulfillment.
-2-
Section 4. The obligation of each Purchaser to purchase and pay for the Series 2008-A Notes to be sold to such Purchaser at the Closing is subject to the fulfillment to such Purchaser’s satisfaction, prior to the Closing, of the conditions set forth in Section 4 of the Note Purchase Agreement with respect to the Series 2008-A Notes to be purchased at the Closing, and to the following additional conditions:
(a) Except as supplemented, amended or superceded by the representations and warranties set forth in Exhibit A hereto, each of the representations and warranties of the Obligors set forth in Section 5 of the Note Purchase Agreement shall be correct as of the date of Closing and the Obligors shall have delivered to each Purchaser an Officer’s Certificate, dated the date of the Closing certifying that such condition has been fulfilled.
(b) Contemporaneously with the Closing, the Obligors shall sell to each Purchaser, and each Purchaser shall purchase, the Series 2008-A Notes to be purchased by such Purchaser at the Closing as specified in Schedule A.
Section 5. Required Prepayments. On January 16, 2012 and on each January 16 thereafter to and including January 16, 2017 the Obligors will prepay $8,142,857 principal amount (or such lesser principal amount as shall then be outstanding) of the Series 2008-A Notes at par and without payment of the Make-Whole Amount or any premium, provided that upon any partial prepayment of the Series 2008-A Notes pursuant to section 6 the principal amount of each required prepayment of the Series 2008-A Notes becoming due under this Section 5 on and after the date of prepayment shall be reduced in the same proportion as the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Series 2008-A Notes is reduced as the result of such prepayment.
Section 6. Optional Prepayments with Make-Whole Amount. The Obligors may, at their option, upon notice as provided below, prepay at any time all, or from time to time any part of, the Series 2008-A Notes, in an amount not less than 5% of the aggregate principal amount of the Series 2008-A Notes then outstanding in the case of a partial prepayment, at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of such prepayment, plus the Make-Whole Amount determined for the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount. The Company will give each holder of Series 2008-A Notes written notice of each optional prepayment under this Section 6 not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify such date (which shall be a Business Day), the aggregate principal amount of the Series 2008-A Notes to be prepaid on such date, the principal amount of each Series 2008-A Note held by such holder to be prepaid (determined in accordance with Section 7 of this Second Supplement), and the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid, and shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer as to the estimated Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such prepayment (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the prepayment), setting forth the details of such computation. Two Business Days prior to such prepayment, the Company shall deliver to each holder of Series 2008-A Notes a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified prepayment date.
-3-
Section 7. Allocation of Partial Prepayments for Series 2008-A Notes. In the case of each partial prepayment of the Series 2008-A Notes pursuant to Section 5 and Section 6 of this Second Supplement, the principal amount of the Series 2008-A Notes to be prepaid shall be allocated among all of the Series 2008-A Notes at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof.
Section 8. Maturity; Surrender, etc. In the case of each prepayment of Series 2008-A Notes pursuant to Section 5 and Section 6 of this Second Supplement the principal amount of each Series 2008-A Note to be prepaid shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such prepayment (which shall be a Business Day), together with interest on such principal amount accrued to such date and the applicable Make-Whole Amount, if any. From and after such date, unless the Obligors shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and payable, together with the interest and Make-Whole Amount, if any, as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue. Any Series 2008-A Note paid or prepaid in full shall be surrendered to the Obligors and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Series 2008-A Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any Series 2008-A Note.
Section 9. Purchase of Series 2008-A Notes. The Obligors will not and will not permit any Affiliate to purchase, redeem, prepay or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of the outstanding Series 2008-A Notes except upon the payment or prepayment of the Series 2008-A Notes in accordance with the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement and the Series 2008-A Notes. The Obligors will promptly cancel all Series 2008-A Notes acquired by them or any Affiliate pursuant to any payment, prepayment or purchase of Series 2008-A Notes pursuant to any provision of the Note Purchase Agreement and no Series 2008-A Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such Series 2008-A Notes.
-4-
Section 10. Make-Whole Amount. The term “Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Series 2008-A Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Series 2008-A Note over the amount of such Called Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings:
“Called Principal” means, with respect to any Series 2008-A Note, the principal of such Series 2008-A Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 6 of this Second Supplement or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1 of the Note Purchase Agreement, as the context requires.
“Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Series 2008-A Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Series 2008-A Notes is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.
“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Series 2008-A Note, .50% over the yield to maturity implied by (i) the yields reported, as of 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on the run U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date, or (ii) if such yields are not reported as of such time or the yields reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), the Treasury Constant Maturity Series Yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for U.S. Treasury securities having a constant maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. In the case of determination under clause (i) or clause (ii), as the case may be, of the preceding paragraph, such implied yield will be determined, if necessary, by (a) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond-equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between (1) the U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) the U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Series 2008-A Note.
“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.
-5-
“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Series 2008-A Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of the Series 2008-A Notes, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 6 of this Second Supplement or Section 12.1 of the Note Purchase Agreement.
“Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Series 2008-A Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 6 of this Second Supplement or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1 of the Note Purchase Agreement, as the context requires.
Section 11. Each Purchaser represents and warrants that the representations and warranties set forth in Section 6 of the Note Purchase Agreement are true and correct on the date hereof with respect to the purchase of the Series 2008-A Notes by such Purchaser.
Section 12. The Obligors and each Purchaser agree to be bound by and comply with the terms and provisions of the Note Purchase Agreement as fully and completely as if such Purchaser were an original signatory to the Note Purchase Agreement.
-6-
The execution hereof shall constitute a contract between the Obligors and the Purchasers for the uses and purposes hereinabove set forth, and this agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each executed counterpart constituting an original but all together only one agreement.

SUPPLEMENTAL REPRESENTATIONS
Each Obligor represents and warrants to each Purchaser that except as hereinafter set forth in this Exhibit A, each of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5 of the Note Purchase Agreement is true and correct as of the date hereof with respect to the Series 2008-A Notes with the same force and effect as if each reference to “Series 2006-A Notes” set forth therein was modified to refer the “Series 2008-A Notes” and each reference to “this Agreement” therein was modified to refer to the Note Purchase Agreement as amended and supplemented from time to time including the Second Supplement. The Section references hereinafter set forth correspond to the similar sections of the Note Purchase Agreement which are supplemented hereby:
Section 5.3. Disclosure. The Obligors, through their agent, SPP Capital Partners, LLC, have delivered to each Purchaser a copy of a Confidential Direct Placement Memorandum dated December 2007 (the “Memorandum), and provided supplemental information and documentation pursuant to Purchaser’s due diligence review specifically relating to the transactions contemplated by the Second Supplement. The Note Purchase Agreement, the Memorandum, the documents, certificates or other writings delivered to each Purchaser by or on behalf of the Obligors in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Note Purchase Agreement and the Second Supplement and the financial statements listed in Schedule 5.5 to the Second Supplement, taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made. Since September 30, 2007, there has been no change in the financial condition, operations, business, properties or prospects of the Obligors or any Subsidiary except changes that individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
Section 5.4. Organization and Ownership of Shares of Subsidiaries. (a) Schedule 5.4 to the Second Supplement contains (except as noted therein) complete and correct lists of the Subsidiaries, and showing, as to each Subsidiary, the correct name thereof, the jurisdiction of its organization, and the percentage of shares of each class of its capital stock or similar equity interests outstanding owned by the Obligors and each other Subsidiary.
Section 5.13. Private Offering by the Company. Neither the Obligors nor anyone acting on their behalf has offered the Series 2008-A Notes or any similar securities for sale to, or solicited any offer to buy any of the same from, or otherwise approached or negotiated in respect thereof with, any Person other than the Purchasers and not more than 16 other Institutional Investors, each of which has been offered the Series 2008-A Notes at a private sale for investment. Neither the Obligors nor anyone acting on its behalf has taken, or will take, any action that would subject the issuance or sale of the Notes to the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act.
EXHIBIT A
(to Second Supplement)
Section 5.14. Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations. The Obligors will apply the proceeds of the sale of the Series 2008-A Notes to repay existing indebtedness and for general corporate or limited liability company purposes. No part of the proceeds from the sale of the Series 2008-A Notes pursuant to the Second Supplement will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of buying or carrying any margin stock within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (12 CFR 222), or for the purpose of buying or carrying or trading in any securities under such circumstances as to involve the Obligors in a violation of Regulation X of said Board (12 CFR 224) or to involve any broker or dealer in a violation of Regulation T of said Board (12 CFR 220). As used in this Section, the terms “margin stock” and “purpose of buying or carrying” shall have the meanings assigned to them in said Regulation U.
Section 5.15. Existing Debt; Future Liens. (a) Schedule 5.15 to the Second Supplement sets forth a complete and correct list of all outstanding Debt of the Obligors and the Subsidiaries as of December 15, 2007 since which date there has been no Material change in the amounts (except for the outstanding amounts owed to the Banks under the Credit Agreement, described in Schedule 5.15), interest rates, sinking funds, installment payments or maturities of the Debt of the Obligors or the Subsidiaries. No Obligor nor any Subsidiary is in default and no waiver of default is currently in effect, in the payment of any principal or interest on any Debt of any Obligor or such Subsidiary and no event or condition exists with respect to any Debt of any Obligor or any Subsidiary that would permit (or that with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would permit) one or more Persons to cause such Debt to become due and payable before its stated maturity or before its regularly scheduled dates of payment.

A. FINANCING STATEMENTS
B. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
1. Under Sections 2.2.2 and 2.2.3 of the Specific Venture Agreement dated November 2, 2001 (the “Agreement”) between Cabela’s Retail, Inc. (“CRI”) and the Unified Government of Wyandotte County/Kansas City Kansas (“UG”), as amended by that certain First Amendment to Specific Venture Agreement dated February 7, 2003, Second Amendment to Specific Venture Agreement dated May 25, 2004, and Third Amendment to Specific Venture Agreement dated July 1, 2005, in connection with the development of the Kansas City retail store, the UG has a reversionary interest in the Pad Sites (as defined in the Agreement) and can exercise said reversionary interest rights in the event that construction is not commenced on any or all of the Pad Sites within seven (7) years and six (6) months of the Grand Boulevard Completion Date (as defined in the Agreement). Said reversionary rights are also set forth in that certain Special Warranty Deed dated November 2, 2001 from the UG (as Grantor) to CRI (as Grantee). As of December 19, 2005, all of the Pad Sites have been sold by CRI, but Lots 2 and 5 are still under development by their respective owners. In addition, if at any time after seven (7) years and six (6) months of the Grand Completion Date, CRI ceases to operate the Retail Store (as defined in the Agreement) in a dignified quality manner or abandons the Retail Store, the UG has the option to purchase the Retail Store for fair market value. Finally, CRI must obtain the approval of the UG to transfer the Specific Venture (as defined in the Agreement) unless the transfer is part of a sale of the assets of CRI and its affiliates to a transferee that is a recognized high quality retailer similar in size and ability to generate sales as CRI with a net worth at least equal to CRI and its affiliates who unconditionally assumes CRI’s obligations under the Agreement.
2. Cabela’s Incorporated (“Cabela’s”) has entered into Development Agreements with the City of Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin (“PDC”) from 1997 to 2001 under which PDC has provided tax increment financing in the total sum of $8,104,700 in connection with the retail store and distribution facility in PDC. Cabela’s has purchased $5,104,700 of the bonds issued pursuant to said Development Agreements, and the purchased bonds were subsequently retired in 2006. In the event that the real estate tax revenues are insufficient to pay the annual debt service required under the bonds, Cabela’s has agreed to advance PDC the sums necessary to pay any shortfall.
3. Under a Development Agreement dated April 8, 1997 between the Economic Development Authority of the City of Owatonna, Minnesota (“City”), County of Steele (“County”) and Three Corners, L.L.C., if the City contributions and County contributions are less than the amount necessary to pay the current amount due under the current special assessments due in connection with the development of the infrastructure of the project, CRI is obligated, under an Assignment and Assumption Agreement dated June 25, 1998, to pay any shortfalls with respect to the Cabela’s Subproject.
SCHEDULE 5.15
(to Second Supplement)

The store opened on August 25, 2005. If CRI does not keep the store open for a period of five (5) years, CRI is obligated to pay $200,000 to the County for each year that the retail store is closed prior to its fifth anniversary. If CRI does not attain the employee level described above, the County may have a cause of action under Utah law.
6. CRI and Lehi City, Utah County, Utah (“City”) entered into that certain Development Agreement (Lehi City, Utah) on October 12, 2004 (the “Agreement”), whereby CRI agreed to build a Cabela’s retail store and employ a certain number of full-time equivalent employees in Lehi by June 30, 2006. If CRI does not attain the specified employee levels, the City may have a cause of action under Utah law.
7. CRI, Coor’s and The City of Wheat Ridge, a Colorado municipal corporation (“City”) entered into that certain Annexation and Development Agreement dated December 20, 2004, as amended (the “Agreement”), whereby CRI agreed to build a Cabela’s retail store and employ a certain number of full-time equivalent employees in the City by September 30, 2006. If CRI does not open the store by September 30, 2006 or attain the specified employee levels, the City may have a cause of action in accordance with Colorado law. The Agreement has been amended to extend the store opening date until June 2008.
8. CRI, the City of Fort Worth, Texas, Terrant County, Texas, and the Lone Star Local Government Corporation entered into that certain Master Economic Development Agreement dated effective as of July 1, 2004 (the “Agreement”), as amended, which was later assigned from CRI to Cabela’s Retail TX, LLC, a Nebraska limited liability company (“Cabela’s Retail TX”), whereby Cabela’s Retail TX agreed to build a Cabela’s retail store and: (i) employ sixty (60) full-time equivalent employees that are Fort Worth Residents (as defined in the Agreement) and at least ten (10) full-time equivalent employees that are Central City Residents (as defined in the Agreement) by December 31, 2006; (ii) spend up to $50,000,000 on construction of the retail store, with $8,500,000 of the Construction Costs (as defined in the Agreement) spent with Fort Worth Companies (as defined in the Agreement) and $2,500,000 of the Construction Costs spent with contractors that are Certified M/WBEs (as defined in the Agreement); and (iii) spend at least $15,000 with Fort Worth Companies for supplies and services on an annual basis and spend at least $5,000 for supplies and services with Certified M/WBEs on an annual basis. In the event that Cabela’s Retail TX does not meet its construction spending goals, employment goals, or supply and service goals as described above, Article 11 of the Agreement outlines certain amounts which would be assessed against Cabela’s Retail TX or which would result in a deduction from the various municipalities’ obligations to provide economic incentives to Cabela’s Retail TX.
5.15-2
(to Second Supplement)
9. CRI, the City of Buda, Texas, Hays County, Texas, the City of Buda 4B Corporation and the Dupre Local Government Corporation entered into that certain Master Economic Development Agreement dated on or about May 14, 2004 (the “Agreement”), which was later assigned from CRI to Cabela’s Retail TX, whereby Cabela’s Retail TX agreed to build a Cabela’s retail store and employ a certain number of full-time equivalent employees. In the event that Cabela’s Retail TX does not obtain the employment level set forth in the Agreement, Cabela’s Retail TX shall reimburse to the applicable Governmental Unit (as defined in the Agreement) an amount equal to $5,000 per each full-time equivalent job below the number required.
10. In six (6) of the Cabela’s retail store locations (SD, KS, PA, TX – 2, and UT), Cabela’s has declared a condominium on their building for purposes of separating out a portion of the retail store as a public museum. By doing so, Cabela’s has been able to obtain certain financing (normally in the form of bonds) and, in exchange for the financing, Cabela’s has deeded the museum to the local municipality that issued bonds. During the time when the municipality owns the museum, Cabela’s manages the museum in exchange for certain management fees that accrue. Cabela’s generally has an obligation in each of these locations to repurchase the museum back from the municipal owner after the bonds are paid off or otherwise expire in accordance with their terms. The purchase price for the museum is usually based upon fair market value at the time of the sale, and Cabela’s is to receive a credit against the purchase price in the amount of any accrued management fees. In the event that the accrued management fees do not match or exceed the price of the museum at the time the repurchase occurs, Cabela’s would be required to pay an amount equal to the difference between (i) the purchase price for the museum and (ii) the accrued management fees. The agreements were structured with the understanding that the accrued management fees would accumulate and pay for the museum at the time of the repurchase, but there is no way of knowing what the fair market value for the museums will be in the future and whether the accrued management fees will be enough to cover the costs for the museums.
11. Cabela’s has received the following additional grant commitments, which are contingent upon the satisfaction of conditions specified in the respective grant agreements:

In the event that the job creation goals are not met, CRI is required to relinquish a pro rata portion of the incentives.
14. CRI has entered into a Development Agreement with Washington County, WI, dated November 22, 2005 in which approximately $4,000,000 in bonds will be issued to reimburse CRI for the cost of constructing and equipping public improvements within the project. In return, CRI is obligated to construct and open the retail store and operate the retail store continuously for at least five (5) years. In addition, in the event that annual gross sales from the retail store are insufficient to generate county sales tax revenues equal to the annual debt service on the bonds, CRI will pay any such shortfall. Further, in return for a grant in the amount of $750,000 from the Wisconsin Department of Commerce for infrastructure, CRI has agreed to create a total of 180 full time jobs within one year of the date the retail store opens to the public. The grant would have to be returned if the requisite jobs are not created.

15. CRI has entered into a Development Agreement dated September 1, 2005 and a Ground Lease dated December 1, 2005, both with the City of Glendale, Arizona, which provides for up to $10,000,000 in bond proceeds for the acquisition of the property and completion of site work. In return, CRI has agreed to construct a 165,000 sq. ft. retail store and operate it at the site for a period of 20 years, as well as creating at least 375 full and part time jobs at the retail store. The land has been sold to the City of Glendale and will be leased back pursuant to the Ground Lease.

16. The Industrial Development Authority of the City of Hazelwood, Missouri sold certain bonds in the amount of $5,000,000 to UMB Bank for purposes of obtaining bond proceeds utilized to benefit CRI’s construction of a retail store in Hazelwood, Missouri. CRI has entered into certain agreements with the City of Hazelwood which provides that CRI will maintain sales of at least $50,000,000 per year and also maintain certain employee thresholds. In the event that CRI generates less than $50,000,000 in sales each year, CRI shall pay the City an amount equal to the sales tax revenues which the City would have otherwise obtained if sales had reached $50,000,000. This sales tax guarantee essentially allows the City the guarantee payment of the bonds. Additionally, in the event that certain employment numbers are not maintained, there is a formula for CRI to reimburse the City for each employee below the threshold during the first five (5) years.
17. CRI is constructing a new retail store in East Hartford, Connecticut. The State of Connecticut has issued General Fund Obligation Bonds in the amount of $9,825,000 in order to provide a grant to CRI in the amount of $9,700,071.79 for development of the retail destination store. CRI has guaranteed that sales tax generated from the new store will support the payment of the Bonds. In the event of any shortfall, Cabela’s is required to guarantee such payments by July 1 of each year.
18. Cabela’s Retail LA, LLC entered into certain development agreements with the Industrial Development Board of the City of Gonzales, Louisiana, Inc. (the “Issuer”), which resulted in the Issuer issuing $49,850,000 of Series 2007 Bonds on May 31, 2007. The Bonds were issued as part of the Cooperative Endeavor Agreement (“Agreement”), dated September 14, 2006, entered into by and among Cabela’s Retail Louisiana, LLC, Issuer and certain other parties. In accordance with Section 2.07 of the Agreement, Cabela’s must maintain certain employment levels. In the event that such employment levels are not maintained, Cabela’s will waive receiving certain payments on the Bonds. Similarly, there are certain operational covenants set forth in Section 2.08 of the Agreement. As part of obtaining the benefit of the bond proceeds, Cabela’s transferred title to the retail store to the Issuer and entered into a Lease Agreement, whereby Cabela’s shall have the right to repurchase the retail store in accordance with certain repurchase requirements similar to those set forth in Item #10 above.
