ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.
Effective as of June 29, 2011, Select Comfort Corporation (“Select” or the “Company”), GE Money Bank (“GE”) and Select Comfort Retail Corporation (“Retail”) entered into a Ninth Amendment to Amended and Restated Private Label Consumer Credit Card Program Agreement (the “Ninth Amendment”), which amended the Amended and Restated Private Label Consumer Credit Card Program Agreement, dated as of December 14, 2005, among those same parties, as previously amended up to the effective date of the Ninth Amendment (such agreement, as so previously amended, the “Program Agreement”).
Amendments to the Program Agreement made by the Ninth Amendment include:
| (a) | Determining the program fee percentages applicable to the price payable by GE to Select and Retail for purchases financed by customers under the Program Agreement (such percentages are referred to herein as the “Program Fee Percentages”); |
| (b) | Increasing to one (1) year the period between regular reviews of the program, which reviews may result in the possible implementation of changes to fees and costs; |
| (c) | Modifying the basis upon which the Program Fee Percentages may be revised to reflect changes in market interest rates; and |
| (d) | Extending the term of the Program Agreement from February 15, 2012 to February 15, 2016, subject to automatic renewal for additional two (2) year terms, unless either party gives written notice to the other at least twelve (12) months prior to the end of the then current term of its intent to terminate and subject also to earlier termination upon certain events. |
The foregoing description of the Ninth Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Ninth Amendment, which, except for the omission of certain confidential portions filed separately with the Commission, is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
