AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
This FOURTH AMENDMENT AND WAIVER TO AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”) is dated as of October 16, 2017 by and among SUMMER INFANT, INC. and SUMMER INFANT (USA), INC., as “Borrowers” under the Loan Agreement referenced below (“Borrowers”), SUMMER INFANT CANADA, LIMITED and SUMMER INFANT EUROPE LIMITED, as “Guarantors” under the Loan Agreement referenced below (“Guarantors” and together with the Borrowers, the “Obligors”), the “Lenders” party to the Loan Agreement referenced below (“Lenders”), and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., in its capacity as “Agent” for the Lenders under the Loan Agreement referenced below (“Agent”).
WHEREAS, Borrowers, Guarantors, Lenders and Agent are parties to that certain Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated as of April 21, 2015, as amended by that certain Amendment to Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated as of December 10, 2015, that certain Second Amendment to Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated as of May 24, 2016, and that certain Third Amendment and Waiver to Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated as of February 17, 2017 (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”);
WHEREAS, on September 18, 2017, Toys “R” Us, Inc. announced that it had commenced Insolvency Proceedings (the “Toys “R” Us Insolvency Proceedings”), and as a result of the Toys “R” Us Insolvency Proceedings, Accounts owing from the Toys “R” Us Companies (the “Toys “R” Us Accounts”) no longer constitute Eligible Accounts; and
WHEREAS, after deducting the Toys “R” Us Accounts from Eligible Accounts, the aggregate Revolver Loans outstanding during the period from September 18, 2017 through the date of this Amendment have exceeded the Revolver Borrowing Base, resulting in Revolver Overadvances (the “Toys “R” Us Revolver Overadvances”);
WHEREAS, Borrowers have requested that Agent and Lenders waive any violations of the Loan Agreement that are directly attributable to the Toys “R” Us Revolver Overadvances and that Agent and Lenders amend certain provisions of the Loan Agreement to, among other things, temporarily increase the Revolver Borrowing Base to account for the failure of the Toys “R” Us Accounts to constitute Eligible Accounts, increase the maximum percentage of Accounts owing from the Amazon Companies and the Wal-Mart Companies that may be included as Eligible Accounts, and increase the maximum permitted Leverage Ratio for the period of four Fiscal Quarters ending September 30, 2017; and
WHEREAS, Lenders and Agent are willing to waive any violations of the Loan Agreement that are directly attributable to the Toys “R” Us Revolver Overadvances and to amend certain provisions of the Loan Agreement, all as more fully described herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the agreements contained herein, the parties agree that the Loan Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

Subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions set forth in this Amendment, Agent and Lenders hereby waive any violations of the Loan Agreement that occurred during the period from September 18, 2017 through the date of this Amendment (the “Overadvance Waiver Period”) and that are directly attributable to the failure of Toy “R” Us Accounts to constitute Eligible Accounts. The parties agree that (a) the foregoing waiver is limited solely to violations of the Loan Agreement occurring during the Overadvance Waiver Period that are directly attributable to the failure of Toy “R” Us Accounts to constitute Eligible Accounts and (b) that nothing herein shall be construed as a waiver of any other provision of the Loan Agreement.

(f) with respect to any Account owing from the Wal-Mart Companies, when aggregated with other Accounts owing from the Wal-Mart Companies, it exceeds 35% of the aggregate Eligible Accounts, (provided, that only the amount of Accounts in excess of the percentage set forth in this clause (f) shall be deemed ineligible under this clause (f))”
(c) The definition of “Eligible Account” is hereby further amended by deleting clause (j) of such definition in its entirety and replacing such clause with the following:
“(j) an Insolvency Proceeding has been commenced by or against the Account Debtor (provided that, Agent may, in its Permitted Discretion, elect to permit certain Accounts as determined by Agent from time to time, in its Permitted Discretion, that are owing from an Account Debtor that is the subject of
Insolvency Proceedings to be included as Eligible Accounts notwithstanding this clause (j) if Agent shall have determined, in its Permitted Discretion, that (i) the applicable Account Debtor has been authorized to pay such Accounts in full, whether through entry of a critical vendor order or approval of the payment on any other basis, or (ii) the Accounts arise subsequent to the commencement of the Insolvency Proceeding and are payable by the Account Debtor in the ordinary course of business; provided, further, that, so long as Toys “R” Us, Inc. remains the subject of Insolvency Proceedings, (x) the aggregate amount of Accounts owing from the Toys “R” Us Companies that may be included as Eligible Accounts shall not exceed $3,000,000 and (y) no Account owing from any of the Toys “R” Us Companies shall be included as an Eligible Account if it is unpaid for more than 45 days after the original invoice date); or the Account Debtor has failed, has suspended or ceased doing business, is liquidating, dissolving or winding up its affairs, is not Solvent, or is subject to any Sanction or on any specially designated nationals list maintained by OFAC; or the Borrower is not able to bring suit or enforce remedies against the Account Debtor through judicial process;”
(d) The definition of “Revolver Borrowing Base” is hereby amended and restated in its entirety, as follows:
“Revolver Borrowing Base: on any date of determination, an amount equal to the sum of (a) the Accounts Formula Amount, plus (b) the Inventory Formula Amount, plus (c) the Temporary Overadvance Amount, minus (d) the Availability Reserve established by Agent in its Permitted Discretion, provided, however, that (i) Eligible In-Transit Inventory shall in no event contribute more than $7,000,000 (after giving effect to the Inventory Formula Amount) to the Revolver Borrowing Base at any time and (ii) Eligible Accounts owing to and Eligible Inventory held by the UK Guarantors shall not contribute more than an aggregate of $6,000,000 (after giving effect to the Account Formula Amount and Inventory Formula Amount, respectively) to the Revolver Borrowing Base at any time.
