Management Corporation, A Massachusetts corporation and Xxxxx'x Eagles Nest,
Inc. a Colorado corporation(each of the foregoing, in their respective joint and
several capacities hereunder, hereafter referred to individually and
collectively as "Borrower" or "Borrowers") and UNION BANK OF CALIFORNIA, N.A.
("Bank"). This Agreement amends and restates in its entirety that certain loan
agreement dated October 9, 1998, between Bank and Track 'N Trail ("Prior
Agreement").
SECTION 1. THE LOAN
1.1.1 THE REVOLVING LOAN. Bank will loan to Borrowers an
amount not to exceed Twenty Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000.00) outstanding in
the aggregate at any one time (the "Revolving Loan"). Borrowers may borrow,
repay and reborrow all or part of the Revolving Loan in accordance with the
terms of the Revolving Note. All borrowings of the Revolving Loan must be made
before October 2, 2000 at which time all unpaid principal and interest of the
Revolving Loan shall be due and payable. The Revolving Loan shall be evidenced
by a promissory note (the "Revolving Note") on the standard form used by Bank
for commercial loans. Bank shall enter each amount borrowed and repaid in
Bank's records and such entries shall be deemed to be the amount of the
Revolving Loan outstanding. Omission of Bank to make any such entries shall not
discharge Borrower of its obligation to repay in full with interest all amounts
borrowed. Any outstanding advances under the revolving loan extended pursuant to
the Prior Agreement shall constitute the initial borrowings under the Revolving
Loan. Borrowers acknowledge that the opportunity of each Borrower to seek and
obtain borrowings in the full amount of the Revolving Loan constitutes
consideration for each Borrower's obligation to Bank to the full extent of the
Revolving Loan outstanding from time to time. Borrowers further acknowledge
that the extension of the Revolving Loan shall lessen or eliminate any need on
the part of any Borrower to provide another Borrower with supplemental working
capital that otherwise might be required from time to time.
1.1.2 THE COMMERCIAL LETTER OF CREDIT SUBLIMIT. As a
sublimit to the Revolving Loan, Bank shall issue, for the account of Borrowers,
jointly or severally, one or more irrevocable commercial letters of credit

presented in a full set to Bank (and, in case of airway bills, consigned to
Bank) and/or at Bank's option, with transport documents presented in less than
a full set to Bank and/or consigned to Borrower or to any party other than Bank
and calling for drafts at sight up to 180 days covering the importation or
purchase of shoes or related products. The aggregate amount available to be
drawn under all outstanding L/Cs and the aggregate amount of unpaid
reimbursement obligations under drawn L/Cs shall not exceed One Million Five
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000) and shall reduce, dollar for dollar, the
maximum amount available under the Revolving Loan. All such commercial L/Cs
shall be drawn on such terms and conditions as are acceptable to Bank and shall
be governed by the terms of (and Borrower agrees to execute) Bank's standard
form for commercial L/C applications and reimbursement agreement and shall not
have an expiration date more than 180 days from its date of issuance. The amount
available under this Commercial Letter of Credit Sublimit shall be reduced by
the amount of any documentary letter of credit issued for Borrower's account,
but such amount or portion thereof shall again become available under the
Commercial Letter of Credit Sublimit (i) when such documentary letter of credit
is deemed by Bank to have expired undrawn, or (ii) when such documentary letter
of credit is drawn upon and Borrower reimburses Bank as provided in the standard
documentary
-1-
