LOAN AGREEMENT
THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is made and entered
into as of October 16, 1997, by and between TRACK 'N TRAIL, a California
corporation, and OVERLAND MANAGEMENT CORPORATION, a Massachusetts corporation
(each of the foregoing, in their respective joint and several capacities
hereunder, hereafter referred to individually as "Borrower" and collectively
as "Borrowers") and UNION BANK OF CALIFORNIA, N.A. ("Bank"). This Agreement
amends and restates in its entirety that certain loan agreement dated October
22, 1996, 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 Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) 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 9, 1999, 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, where noted shall be deemed to
reflect the amount of the Revolving Loan outstanding. Omission of Bank to
make any such entries shall not discharge Borrowers of their 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 either Borrower to provide the other 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
(individually, an "L/C" and collectively, the "L/Cs") with transport
documents 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 of documentary
letter of credit documentation. No L/C shall expire more than ninety (90)
days after October 9, 1999. Any L/C's issued pursuant to the Prior Agreement
shall be deemed to be L/C's issued under and subject to this Commercial
