CREDIT AGREEMENT (REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT)

Exhibit 10.1

(REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT)

This agreement is dated as of July 8, 2011. It is between QAD INC., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), and RABOBANK, N.A., a national banking association (“Lender”).

Borrower requests that Lender provide a revolving line of credit to Borrower. Lender will provide a revolving line of credit, subject to the terms of this agreement.

ARTICLE 1 - THE LINE OF CREDIT

1.01 The Line of Credit. Lender shall extend credit (the “Line of Credit”) from time to time during the period from the Closing Date to the Line of Credit Maturity Date (such period, including extensions, if any, the “Line of Credit Availability Period”) by making loans to Borrower (each such loan, or a portion thereof bearing interest under this agreement, a "Line of Credit Loan") on a revolving basis.

1.02 Maximum Amount. The aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Line of Credit Loans must not exceed $20,000,000.00 (the “Maximum Line of Credit Amount”).

1.03 Loans under the Line of Credit. Loans under the Line of Credit are subject to Article 3.

1.04 Overdrafts. Notwithstanding any contrary provisions of this article, any Line of Credit Loans may be used to repay overdrafts on Rabobank, N.A. demand deposit account no. 0000000000, owned by Borrower (or another Rabobank, N.A. account designated by Borrower and agreed to by Lender), to the extent they result from the payment of sums for which Line of Credit Loans may be used directly ("Line of Credit Overdrafts").

1.05 Revolving Nature. The Line of Credit is a revolving line of credit, and during the Line of Credit Availability Period, subject to the terms and conditions of this agreement, Borrower may repay principal amounts and reborrow them.

(a) Interest. The unpaid principal balance of Loans under the Line of Credit will bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus three-quarters of one percent (.75%) (the "LIBOR Rate"). The LIBOR Rate will be determined as of each Adjustment Date (or in the case of the initial interest rate period, as of the date of the funding of the Loan), and such Interest Rate shall be in effect from the applicable Adjustment Date (or the funding date, as applicable) to but excluding the next succeeding Adjustment Date.

1.06 Required Payments; Maturity Date.

(a) Borrower shall pay accrued interest on August 15 and on the fifteenth day of each month after the Closing Date to the Line of Credit Maturity Date.

(b) The unpaid principal balance of, all unpaid accrued interest on, and all other charges under this agreement with respect to the Line of Credit, shall be paid on July 15, 2012 (the "Line of Credit Maturity Date").

1.07 The Line of Credit Note. Loans under the Line of Credit will be evidenced by this agreement and a promissory note in a form provided by Lender (the "Line of Credit Note").

ARTICLE 2 - COVENANTS REGARDING THE LOANS

2.01 Loan Requests. Each Line of Credit Loan will be made upon the request of Borrower (a "Loan Request"). Each Loan Request (a) must comply with the requirements of 6.02; (b) at Lender's option, must be received by Lender before 1:00 pm (California time) on a Business Day which is not less than one Business Day prior to the date of the Loan; and (c) must specify the amount of the Line of Credit Loan. No Line of Credit Loan will be made (a) if the interest rate for that Loan would exceed the Maximum Rate, (b) if and to the extent the Loan would cause the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Line of Credit to exceed the Maximum Line of Credit Amount, or (c) if as a result of making the Loan a Default or Event of Default would exist. Each Loan Request will be irrevocable. Lender may postpone making any Line of Credit Loan to the extent Lender is delayed by fire, earthquake or another circumstance outside Lender’s reasonable control.

2.02 Computation of Interest. All computations of accrued interest under the Loan Documents other than interest at the Maximum Rate, and all computations of fees under the Loan Documents, will be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) elapsed; and all computations of interest accrued at the Maximum Rate will be based upon a year of the actual number of days in the respective year. Subject to Section 2.06, there is no limit on the amount that a rate of interest subject to Adjustment by Lender may increase at any one time, or in the aggregate. Lender's determination of a rate of interest will be conclusive, absent manifest error.

2.03 Late Fee. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, Borrower shall pay a late fee in the amount of 2.000% of the amount of any scheduled payment due prior to the Maturity Date that is not paid in full when due. The imposition and payment of a late fee will not constitute a waiver of Lender's rights with respect to an Event of Default as a result of that late payment.

2.04 Default Rate. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the principal balance of the Loans and, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, all other Obligations shall, from the date of an Event of Default until the date Lender notifies Borrower that such Event of Default is waived or cured or all Obligations are paid in full, bear interest at the Default Rate. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.06, the "Default Rate" means (a) with respect to the unpaid principal balance of any Loan, the rate per annum which is equal to the otherwise applicable rate, plus 2.000% per annum; and (b) with respect to all other Obligations, 5.000% per annum. Interest payable at the Default Rate shall be paid from time to time on demand, or if not sooner demanded, on the first day of each month. The provisions of this section may result in the compounding of interest. The provisions of this section will not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default.

2.05 Maximum Rate. Notwithstanding any provision of this agreement to the contrary, (a) no interest will be due on any amount due under this agreement if, under Applicable Law, Lender is not permitted to charge interest on that amount, and (b) in all other cases interest due under this agreement will be calculated at a rate not to exceed the Maximum Rate. If Borrower is requested by Lender to pay interest on any amount due under this agreement at a rate greater than the Maximum Rate, the amount of interest due on that amount will be deemed the Maximum Rate and all payments in excess of the Maximum Rate will be deemed to have been Prepayments without prepayment fee or penalty, and not interest. All amounts other than interest which are paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of Borrower's indebtedness to Lender under this agreement shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, be amortized over the full stated term of the indebtedness, so that the rate of interest on account of that indebtedness does not exceed the Maximum Rate for so long as the indebtedness is outstanding.

2.06 Method and Application of Payments. All payments of principal, interest, and other amounts to be made under the Loan Documents shall be made to Lender in U.S. dollars and in immediately available funds, without set-off, deduction, or counterclaim, not later than 2:00 pm (California time) on the dates on which those payments will become due (any of those payments made after the time on the due date will be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day). Unless otherwise agreed to in writing, or otherwise required by Applicable Law, payments will be applied first to accrued, unpaid interest, then to any unpaid collection costs, late charges and other charges, and any remaining amount to principal, provided, however, during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender reserves the right to apply payments among principal, interest, late charges, collection costs and other charges in such order of priority as Lender shall from time to time determine in its sole discretion. The early or late date of making a regularly scheduled payment will be disregarded for purposes of allocating the payment between principal and interest. For this purpose, the payment will be treated as though made on the date due. In any legal action or proceeding, the entries made by Lender in an account or accounts maintained by Lender or Rabobank International or any of their Affiliates in accordance with its usual practice and evidencing the Obligations, will be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of those Obligations.

2.07 Designated Account. So long as Lender has any obligation to make Loans or any Obligations under the Line of Credit are unpaid or unsatisfied, upon the request of Lender, Borrower shall maintain a demand deposit account with Lender (the "Designated Account") in good standing. If all of the applicable conditions to a Line of Credit Loan have been fulfilled, Lender shall make the Line of Credit Loan available to Borrower as set forth in the Request for Loan by, at the option of Lender, (a) depositing the proceeds in the Designated Account; (b) if applicable, transferring the proceeds to an agent designated for purposes of an escrowed Closing of this transaction by wire or ACH transfer; or (c) paying or applying the proceeds as otherwise permitted under this agreement, by any means appropriate under the circumstances.

2.08 ACH Payments. Borrower authorizes Lender to, at Lender's option in each instance, initiate debits to the Designated Account, on the due date, for all interest and principal payments, any fees and expenses, and any other amounts due and payable by Borrower with respect to the Line of Credit, by means of the automatic clearinghouse electronic funds transfer system, by direct debit of the Designated Account, or by any other commercially accepted method (hereafter, "ACH Payments"). Lender shall give Borrower not less than ten days notice before beginning ACH Payments. If Lender elects to initiate ACH Payments, Borrower will thereafter maintain sufficient funds in the Designated Account on the dates Lender enters debits for ACH Payment of regularly scheduled payments of interest, principal, and fees, if any. If there are insufficient funds in the Designated Account on the date Lender enters any debit authorized by this agreement, Lender may reverse the debit. Borrower agrees to upon request by Lender, execute and deliver to Lender an ACH Payment authorization in form and content satisfactory to Lender. Subject to Section 2.06, all rates of interest specified in this agreement shall be increased by 0.100% per annum if Borrower does not maintain the Designated Account in good standing..

2.09 Fees.

(a) Loan Processing Fee. On the Closing Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender in immediately available funds a loan processing fee in the amount of $500.00.

(b) Utilization Fee. Borrower shall pay to Lender an unused fee calculated as .25% per annum of the daily average of the excess of the Maximum Line of Credit Amount over the outstanding principal balance of the Line of Credit. The utilization fee shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the last day of the Line of Credit Availability Period (and, if applicable, thereafter on demand).

2.10 Mandatory Repayments. If at any time the unpaid principal balance of a Line of Credit Loan exceeds the Maximum Line of Credit Amount under the terms of this agreement, then, upon demand by Lender, Borrower shall repay that portion of the principal balance thereof in excess of that maximum amount, along with all unpaid accrued interest on that portion.

2.11 Inability to Determine Rates. If, in connection with any Loan bearing interest at a rate to be determined in whole or in part on the basis of LIBOR (a “LIBOR Based Rate”), Lender determines that (a) United States dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank market for the applicable amount of such Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the applicable LIBOR Based Rate, or (c) the LIBOR Based Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lender of funding that Loan, Lender will promptly so notify the Borrower. Thereafter, all Loans which would otherwise bear interest at the LIBOR Based Rate shall accrue interest at that rate, per annum, as determined by the Lender to be most comparable to the LIBOR Rate.

2.12 Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the LIBOR Rate);

(ii) subject Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any LIBOR Rate Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to Lender in respect thereof (except for taxes on the Lender’s overall net income imposed by the jurisdiction where the Lender is headquartered or the jurisdiction where the Lender extends the applicable LIBOR Rate Loan); or

(iii) impose on Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or LIBOR Rate Loans made by Lender or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to Lender of making or maintaining any LIBOR Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of Lender, Borrower will pay to Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

2.13 Capital Requirements. If Lender reasonably determines that any Change in Law affecting Lender (or its applicable lending office) or Lender's holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender's capital or on the capital of Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, or the Loan made by such Lender, to a level below that which Lender or Lender's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration Lender's policies and the policies of Lender's holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender or Lender's holding company for any such reduction suffered.

2.14 Certificates for Reimbursement. The Borrower shall pay the Lender the amount or amounts necessary to compensate the Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 2.12 or Section 2.13 within 10 days after receipt of a certificate of the Lender setting forth such amounts. Failure or delay on the part of the Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions shall not constitute a waiver of the Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate the Lender pursuant to Section 2.12 or Section 2.13 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that the Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

2.15 Termination or Reduction of Commitment. Borrower may, upon notice to Lender, terminate the commitment of Lender hereunder, or from time to time permanently reduce the Maximum Line of Credit Amount; provided that if, after giving effect to any reduction of the Maximum Line of Credit Amount the outstanding principal balance of the Line of Credit exceeds the reduced Maximum Line of Credit Amount, Borrower shall immediately prepay such amount as is necessary to cause the outstanding principal balance of the Line of Credit not to exceed the reduced Maximum Line of Credit Amount.

Any provision of any Loan Document which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of that Loan Document or affecting the validity or enforceability of that provision in any other jurisdiction; except that if such provision relates to the payment of any monetary sum, then Lender may, at its option, declare all Obligations immediately due and payable.
