Exhibit 10.27

$75,000,000.00 Birmingham, Alabama
April 16, 2020

SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED NOTE

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, without grace, each of the undersigned (each individually a “Borrower,” and collectively, the “Borrowers”), promises to pay to the order of REGIONS BANK, an Alabama banking corporation (herein called the “Lender,” and together with any subsequent holder of this note called the “Holder”), in the manner set forth below, the principal sum of Seventy-Five Million and No/100 Dollars ($75,000,000.00), or so much thereof as may be advanced by the Xxxxxx xxxxxxxxx, and to pay interest from the date advanced until payment in full on the unpaid principal balance of the amount advanced hereunder from time to time at the interest rate set forth below.

This Note shall bear interest (computed on an Actual/360 Day Basis) on the unpaid principal balance outstanding hereunder from time to time, until payment in full, at a floating interest rate equal to the LIBOR-Based Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

Principal and all accrued and unpaid interest hereunder shall be due and payable on April 19, 2021 (the “Maturity Date”), unless otherwise due earlier pursuant to the terms hereof. Interest owing on principal amounts outstanding hereunder shall also be payable monthly on the first day of each month, commencing on the first day of the first month after funding of any principal amount hereunder and then on the first day of each month until payment in full.

The Borrowers hereby authorize the Lender to initiate entries to the Borrowers’ checking or savings accounts held with the Lender for the purpose of making the payments due hereunder. The Borrowers further authorize the Lender to withdraw these payments from said accounts.

This Note is a master note, and it is contemplated that the proceeds of the loan evidenced hereby will be advanced by the Lender to the Borrowers in installments, and repaid and re borrowed, as needed, upon compliance with the terms and conditions set forth herein. This Note shall be valid and enforceable as to, and any collateral granted to the Lender as security for the Loan evidenced hereby shall be and remain valid and binding as security for, the aggregate amount advanced at any time hereunder, whether or not the full face amount hereof is advanced. Each principal advance and payment on this Note shall be reflected by notations made by the Lender on its internal records (which may be kept on computer or otherwise), and the Lender is hereby authorized to record on such records all such principal advances and payments. The aggregate unpaid amount reflected by the Lender’s notations on its internal records (whether on computer or otherwise) shall be deemed presumptive evidence of the principal amount remaining outstanding and unpaid on this Note. No failure of the Lender so to record any advance or payment shall limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder with respect to any advance, and no payment of principal by the Borrower shall be affected by the failure of the Lender so to record the same.

Each advance under this Note to the Borrowers will be made on at least one Business Day’s prior written notice to the Lender, which notice shall be signed by an authorized representative of the Borrower Representative and shall set forth the amount of the advance requested, the date on which the advance is to be made and the Borrower’s account to be credited. On the date of the requested advance, upon satisfaction of any applicable conditions contained elsewhere in this Note, the Lender shall make the amount of the advance available to the Borrowers by crediting or depositing the proceeds thereof into an account with the Lender in the name of the Borrower named in the request. The initial advance shall be in an amount not less than $2,000. The Lender's obligation to make advances under this Note shall terminate, if not sooner terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Note, on the day preceding the Maturity Date. The Lender shall have no obligation to make advances if an Event of Default exists. The Lender may, at its option, without any request by the Borrowers, make advances to itself for the purpose of paying overdrafts that the Borrowers may have from time to time with respect to any operating accounts established by the Borrowers with the Lender. The making of any request for an advance shall constitute an automatic representation and warranty by the Borrowers that the representations and warranties contained in Section 6 are true and correct on and as of the date of such advance (subject to any limitations set forth

in Section 6) and that no Event of Default, nor any nor any event that upon notice or lapse of time or both would constitute an Event of Default, exists.

The Borrowers further agree with the Holder as follows:

SECTION 3 Place and Time of Payments.

(a) All payments by the Borrowers to the Holder under this Note shall be made in lawful currency of the United States and in immediately available funds to the Lender at its Main Office in Birmingham, Alabama or at such other address within the continental United States as shall be specified by the Holder by notice to the Borrower Representative. Any payment received by the Holder after 2:00 p.m. (Birmingham, Alabama time) on a Business Day (or at any time on a day that is not a Business Day) shall be deemed made by the Borrowers and received by the Holder on the following Business Day.

(b) All amounts payable by the Borrowers to the Holder under this Note or any of the other Credit Documents for which a payment date is expressly set forth herein or therein shall be payable on the specified due date without notice or demand by the Holder. All amounts payable by the Borrowers to the Holder under this Note or the other Credit Documents for which no payment date is expressly set forth herein or therein shall be payable ten days after written demand by the Holder to the Borrower Representative. The Holder may, at its option, send written notice or demand to the Borrower Representative of amounts payable on a specified due date pursuant to this Note or the other Credit Documents, but the failure to send such notice shall not affect or excuse the Borrowers’ obligation to make payment of the amounts due on the specified due date.

Any prepayment shall be accompanied by the payment of accrued interest to the date of prepayment on the principal amount prepaid.

SECTION 5 Certain LIBOR Provisions.

(a) The interest rate on this Note is subject to change from time to time based on changes in an independent index which is the LIBOR-Based Rate for the applicable Interest Period, (the "Index"). The Index is not necessarily the lowest rate charged by the Lender on its loans. Any provision of this Note to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that Lender should at any time determine (which determination shall be made in Lender’s sole and absolute discretion and shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the Index is unavailable, (ii) the Index cannot be determined, (iii) the Index does not adequately reflect the cost to Lender of making, funding, or maintaining the Loan, (iv) the use of the Index has become impracticable or unreliable, (v) the Index is no longer representative of the underlying market or economic reality, or (vi) it is no longer lawful for Lender to lend at any rate based on the Index, then, in each case, Lender, in its sole discretion, will designate a substitute index and provide notice to the Borrower Representative of such substitute index. Thereafter, such alternate index shall be deemed to be and shall become the Index as that term is used in this Note.

(b) The United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA") has announced it will phase out its support of the London Interbank Offered Rate. The London Interbank Offered Rate may be sustained until the end of 2021. The Borrowers acknowledge that if during the term of this Note, the London Interbank Offered Rate is no longer published, becomes unavailable, cannot be lawfully maintained, or any of the other events noted in Section 5(a) above occurs, Borrowers’ variable interest rate will be determined based on an alternate interest rate index selected by Lender, in its sole discretion, as provided by the terms of this Note. The effect of the FCA's decision to no longer support the London Interbank Offered Rate cannot be predicted, or, if changes are ultimately made to the London Interbank Offered Rate, the effect of those changes cannot be predicted. In addition, Xxxxxxxxx acknowledge the impact of any interest rate index change related to the Loan due to the FCA's decision to phase out its support of the London Interbank Offered Rate, should this occur, cannot be predicted and may or may not be advantageous to the Borrowers.

Each Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that upon default in the payment when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of any principal of, or interest on, any Obligation payable to Lender, it will forthwith pay the same, without notice or demand, unless such payment is then prohibited by application of law (provided such Obligation shall not be extinguished by any such prohibition).

(c) No payment or payments made by any Borrower or any other Person or received or collected by Lender from any Borrower or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any setoff or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of each Borrower under this Note or the other Credit Documents, and each Borrower shall remain liable for all of the Obligations until the Obligations are paid in full.

Page 8

(d) Each Borrower agrees that the Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Credit Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of Lender with respect thereto, unless such payment is then prohibited by applicable law (provided such Obligation shall not be extinguished by any such prohibition). All Obligations shall be conclusively presumed to have been created in reliance hereon. The Obligations and other liabilities under this Note and the other Credit Documents shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of: (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Credit Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payments of, or in any other term of, all or any part of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver thereof or any consent to departure therefrom, including any increase in the Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any Borrower or otherwise; (c) any taking, exchange, release of or non-perfection in any Property, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any guaranty for all or any of the Obligations; (d) any change, division, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of any Borrower; or (e) any other circumstance which may otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Borrower, in each case other than payment in full of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations and expense reimbursement obligations) and termination of the Lender’s commitments under this Note. This Note shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

(e) Each Borrower agrees that the joint and several liability of Borrowers provided for in this Note shall not be impaired or affected by any modification, supplement, extension or amendment of any contract or agreement to which one or more other Borrowers may hereafter agree (other than an agreement signed by Xxxxxx specifically releasing such liability), nor by any delay, extension of time, renewal, compromise or other indulgence granted by Lender with respect to any of the Obligations, nor by any other agreements or arrangements whatever with one or more other Borrowers or with any other Person, each Borrower hereby waiving all notice of such delay, extension, release, substitution, renewal, compromise or other indulgence, and hereby consenting to be bound thereby as fully and effectually as if it had expressly agreed thereto in advance. The liability of each Borrower is direct and unconditional as to all of the Obligations and may be enforced without requiring Lender first to resort to any other right, remedy or security. Each Borrower hereby expressly waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice (except to the extent expressly provided for herein or in another Credit Document) with respect to any of the Obligations, this Note or any other Credit Document and any requirement that Lender protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against any Borrower or any other Person or any Property.

(f) Each Borrower is obligated to repay the Obligations as joint and several obligors under this Note. To the extent that any Borrower shall, under this Note as a joint and several obligor, repay any of the Obligations constituting advances made to another Borrower hereunder or other Obligations incurred directly and primarily by any other Borrower (an “Accommodation Payment”), then, to the extent that such Borrower has not received the benefit of such repaid Obligations (whether through an inter-company loan or otherwise), such Borrower making such Accommodation Payment shall be entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, each of the other Borrowers in an amount, for each of such other Borrowers, equal to a fraction of such Accommodation Payment, the numerator of which fraction is such other Borrower’s Allocable Amount (as defined below) and the denominator of which fraction is the sum of the Allocable Amounts of all of the Borrowers. As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of each Borrower shall be equal to the greater of (a) the amount of such repaid Obligations actually received by such Borrower (whether through an inter-company loan or otherwise), and (b) maximum amount of liability for Accommodation Payments which could be asserted against such Borrower hereunder without (i) rendering such Borrower “insolvent” within the meaning of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (the “UFTA”), or Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act (“UFCA”), (ii) leaving such Borrower with unreasonably small capital or assets, within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 4 of the UFCA, or (iii) leaving such Borrower unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA. All rights and claims of contribution, indemnification and reimbursement under this paragraph shall be subordinate in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the Obligations.

(g) If any Borrower is in default, the Holder may exercise its remedies on default against all of the Borrowers.

SECTION 16 Independent Obligations. The Borrowers agree that each of the obligations of the Borrowers to the Holder under this Note may be enforced against any Borrower without the necessity of joining any other Obligor, any other holders of Liens in any Property or any other person, as a party.

SECTION 17 Successors and Assigns. Whenever in this Note any party hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party, except that the Borrowers may not assign or transfer its obligations under this Note without the prior written consent of the Holder; and all obligations of the Borrowers under this Note shall bind the Borrowers’ successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Holder. So long as no Event of Default exists, the Holder shall not assign this Note without Borrower Representative’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Note or any other Credit Documents, to secure obligations of the Holder, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or

assignment shall release the Holder from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for the Holder as a party hereto.

SECTION 18 Governing Law. This Note shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the internal laws of the State of Alabama except as required by mandatory provisions of law (without regard to conflict of law principles).

SECTION 19 Separability Clause. If any provision of this Note shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

SECTION 20 No Oral Agreements. This Note is the final expression of the agreement between the parties hereto, and this Note may not be contradicted by evidence of any prior oral agreement between such parties. All previous oral agreements between the parties hereto have been incorporated into this Note and the other Credit Documents, and there is no unwritten oral agreement between the parties hereto in existence.

SECTION 21 Waiver and Election. The exercise by the Holder of any option given under this Note or the Security Documents shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise any other option. No failure or delay on the part of the Holder in exercising any right, power or remedy under this Note or the Security Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. No modification, termination or waiver of any provisions of this Note, nor consent to any departure by the Borrowers therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing and signed by an authorized officer of the Holder, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on the Borrowers in any case shall entitle the Borrowers to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

SECTION 22 Indemnity. The Borrowers will indemnify, on a joint and several basis, and hold Lender harmless from, on a joint and several basis, any losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, and costs of any kind relating to or arising directly or indirectly out of (a) any inaccurate representation made by any Borrower in this Note, or (b) any breach of any of the warranties or other obligations of any Borrower under this Note. This indemnity includes but is not limited to attorneys' fees. This indemnity extends to the Lender, its affiliates and the partners, directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors of the Lender and of the Lender's affiliates. This indemnity will survive repayment of the Borrowers' Obligations to the Lender under this Note. All sums due to the Lender pursuant to this paragraph shall due and payable upon demand.

SECTION 23 Set-off. While any Event of Default exists, the Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without notice to the Borrowers (any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrowers), to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by the Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower against any and all

Page 10

of the Obligations, irrespective of whether or not the Lender shall have made any demand under this Note and although such Obligations may be unmatured. The rights of the Lender under this Section 23 are in addition to all other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off or pursuant to any banker’s lien) that the Lender may have.

SECTION 24 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence of this Note.

SECTION 25 Participations. From time to time, upon the prior written consent of the Borrower Representative (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), the Lender may from time to time enter into a participation agreement or agreements with one or more participants pursuant to which each such participant shall be given a participation in the Loan and that any such participant may from time to time similarly grant to one or more subparticipants subparticipations in the Loan. The Borrowers agree that any participant or subparticipant may exercise any and all rights of banker's lien or set-off with respect to the Borrowers, as fully as if such participant or subparticipant had made a loan directly to the Borrowers in the amount of the participation or subparticipation given to such participant or subparticipant in the Loan. For the purposes of this Section only, the Borrowers shall be deemed to be directly obligated to each participant or subparticipant in the amount of its participation interest in the amount of the principal of, and interest on, the Loan. Nothing contained in this Section shall affect the Lender's right of set-off (under Section 23 or applicable law) with respect to the entire amount of the Loan, notwithstanding any such participation or subparticipation. The Lender may divulge to any participant or subparticipant all information, reports, financial statements, certificates and documents obtained by it from the Borrowers or any other person under any provision of the Agreement or otherwise.

SECTION 26 Submission to Jurisdiction. Each Borrower irrevocably (a) acknowledges that this Note will be accepted by the Lender and performed by the Borrowers in the State of Alabama; (b) submits to the jurisdiction of each state or federal court sitting in Jefferson County, Alabama (collectively, the “Courts”) over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Note or any of the other Credit Documents (individually, an “Agreement Action”); (c) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection or defense that the Borrowers may now or hereafter have based on improper venue, lack of personal jurisdiction, inconvenience of forum or any similar matter in any Agreement Action brought in any of the Courts; (d) agrees that final judgment in any Agreement Action brought in any of the Courts shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrowers and may be enforced in any other court to the jurisdiction of which a Borrower is subject, by a suit upon such judgment; consents to the service of process on each Borrower in any Agreement Action by the mailing of a copy thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to such Borrower at the Borrower’s address designated at the end of this Note; (e) agrees that service in accordance with Section 26(d) shall in every respect be effective and binding on the Borrowers to the same extent as though served on the Borrowers in person by a person duly authorized to serve such process; and (f) AGREES THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION, EVEN IF FOUND NOT TO BE STRICTLY ENFORCEABLE BY ANY COURT, SHALL CONSTITUTE “FAIR WARNING” TO THE BORROWERS THAT THE EXECUTION OF THIS NOTE MAY SUBJECT EACH BORROWER TO THE JURISDICTION OF EACH STATE OR FEDERAL COURT SITTING IN JEFFERSON COUNTY, ALABAMA WITH RESPECT TO ANY AGREEMENT ACTIONS, AND THAT IT IS FORESEEABLE BY THE BORROWERS THAT THE BORROWERS MAY BE SUBJECTED TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS AND MAY BE SUED IN THE STATE OF ALABAMA IN ANY AGREEMENT ACTIONS. Nothing in this Section 26(a) shall limit or restrict the Lender’s right to serve process or bring Agreement Actions in manners and in courts otherwise than as herein provided.

SECTION 27 Usury Laws. Any provision of this Note or any of the other Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrowers and the Lender agree that they do not intend for the interest or other consideration provided for in this Note and the other Credit Documents to be greater than the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. Regardless of any provision in this Note or any of the other Credit Documents, the Lender shall not be entitled to receive, collect or apply, as interest on the Obligations, any amount in excess of the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged under applicable law until such time, if any, as that interest, together with all other interest then payable, falls within the then applicable maximum lawful rate of interest. If the Lender shall receive, collect or apply any amount in excess of the then maximum rate of interest, the amount that would be excessive interest shall be applied first to the reduction of the principal amount of the Obligations then outstanding in the inverse order of maturity, and second, if such principal amount is paid in full, any excess shall forthwith be returned to the Borrowers. In determining whether the interest paid or payable under any specific

Page 11

contingency exceeds the highest lawful rate, the Borrowers and the Lender shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, (a) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, (c) consider all the Obligations as one general obligation of the Borrowers, and (d) “spread” the total amount of the interest throughout the entire term of this Note so that the interest rate is uniform throughout the entire term of this Note.

SECTION 28 Legal Entity Customer Provisions. If a Borrower is a Legal Entity Customer, such Xxxxxxxx agrees to provide Xxxxxx immediately with information and documentation that Lender requests about Borrower's Beneficial Owners and any other person(s) or entity(ies) having direct or indirect equity interest in such Borrower. Further, each Borrower certifies and confirms that such Borrower will notify Lender immediately-and in no event no later than at any loan renewal-should such Borrower have any change to its Beneficial Owners. Should a Borrower fail to notify Lender of such change, each Borrower confirms and certifies to Lender that the Beneficial Owner and other ownership information previously provided to Lender is complete, accurate, and up-to-date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to obligate Lender to renew Borrowers’ loan. "Beneficial Owner" has its meaning set forth in 31 C.F.R. § 1010.230(d) and includes each individual, if any, who owns, directly or indirectly, 25 percent or more of the equity interests of a Legal Entity Customer, as well as a single individual with significant responsibility to control, manage, or direct a Legal Entity Customer. “Legal Entity Customer" has its meaning set forth in 31 C.F.R. § 1010.230(e) and includes a corporation, limited liability company, or other entity that is created by a filing of a public document with a Secretary of State or similar office, a general partnership, and any similar business entity formed under the laws of a foreign jurisdiction that opens an account.

SECTION 29 Waiver of Jury Trial. The Borrowers and the Lender hereby (a) irrevocably and unconditionally waive the right to a trial by jury in any action or proceeding or counterclaim of any type as to any matter arising directly or indirectly out of or with respect to this Note or any of the other Credit Documents or any other document executed in connection herewith or therewith and (b) agree that either party may file a copy of this Note with any court as written evidence of the knowing, voluntary and bargained for agreement between the parties irrevocably to waive trial by jury, and that any dispute or controversy of any kind whatsoever between them shall instead be tried in a court of competent jurisdiction by a judge sitting without a jury.

SECTION 30 Amendment and Restatement. This Note amends and restates, and is given in replacement of, and not in payment of, that certain Amended and Restated Demand Note, dated October 29, 2018 (collectively with all prior notes amended and restated thereby and by any predecessor notes referenced therein, the "Existing Note"), given by the Hibbett Sports, Inc., a Delaware corporation, in favor of the Lender and is in no way intended, and shall not be deemed or construed, to constitute a novation of the Existing Note.

SECTION 31 Counterparts. This Note may be executed in any number of counterparts each of which shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one agreement. Executed signature pages to this Note may be delivered by facsimile transmission or by email delivery of a “pdf” format data file and such signature pages will be deemed as sufficient as if actual signature pages had been delivered.

SECTION 32 Notices. All notices required under this Note shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered or sent by first class mail, postage prepaid, or by overnight courier; to the Borrower Representative or the Lender, as the case may be, at its address set forth below, or sent by facsimile to the facsimile number set forth for such party below, or to such other addresses or facsimile numbers as the Lender and the Borrower Representative may specify from time to time in writing. Notices and other communications sent by (a) first class mail shall be deemed delivered on the earlier of actual receipt or on the fourth business day after deposit in the U.S. mail, postage prepaid, (b) overnight courier shall be deemed delivered on the next business day after deposit with the overnight courier, (c) other methods of hand-delivery (including telegram, lettergram or mailgram) shall be deemed delivered when delivered, and (d) facsimile shall be deemed delivered when transmitted.
