Revolving Credit Facility
On July 29, 2011, Express Holding, a wholly-owned subsidiary, and its subsidiaries entered into an Amended and Restated $200.0 million secured Asset-
Based Credit Facility ("Revolving Credit Facility"). As of February 1, 2014, there were no borrowings outstanding and approximately $198.0 million
available under the Revolving Credit Facility.
The Revolving Credit Facility is scheduled to expire on July 29, 2016 and allows for up to $30.0 million of swing line advances and up to $45.0 million to be
available in the form of letters of credit. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to either the rate appearing on Bloomberg
L.P.'s Page BBAM1/(Official BBA USD Dollar Libor Fixings) (the “Eurodollar Rate”) plus an applicable margin rate or the highest of (1) the prime lending
rate, (2) 0.50% per annum above the federal funds rate, and (3) 1% above the Eurodollar Rate, in each case plus an applicable margin rate. The applicable
margin rate is determined based on excess availability as determined by reference to the borrowing base. The applicable margin for Eurodollar Rate-based
advances is between 1.50% and 2.00% based on the borrowing base. The unused line fee payable under the Revolving Credit Facility is incurred at 0.375% per
annum of the average daily unused revolving commitment during each quarter, payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each May, August, November,
and February. In the event that (1) an event of default has occurred or (2) excess availability plus eligible cash collateral is less than 12.5% of the borrowing
base for 5 consecutive days, such unused line fees are payable on the first day of each month.
Interest payments under the Revolving Credit Facility are due quarterly on the first day of each May, August, November, and February for base rate-based
advances, provided, however, in the event that (1) an event of default has occurred or (2) excess availability plus eligible cash collateral is less than 12.5% of
the borrowing base for 5 consecutive days, interest payments are due on the first day of each month. Interest payments under the Revolving Credit Facility are
due on the last day of the interest period for Eurodollar Rate-based advances for interest periods of 1, 2, and 3 months, and additionally every 3 months after
the first day of the interest period for Eurodollar Rate-based advances for interest periods of greater than 3 months.
The Revolving Credit Facility requires Express Holding and its subsidiaries to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.0:1.0 if excess availability
plus eligible cash collateral is less than 10% of the borrowing base for 15 consecutive days. In addition, the Revolving Credit Facility contains customary
covenants and restrictions on Express Holding and its subsidiaries' activities, including, but not limited to, limitations on the incurrence of additional
indebtedness; liens, negative pledges, guarantees, investments, loans, asset sales, mergers, acquisitions, and prepayment of other debt; distributions,
dividends, and the repurchase of capital stock; transactions with affiliates; and the ability to change the nature of its business or its fiscal year. All obligations
under the Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed by Express Holding and its domestic subsidiaries (that are not borrowers) and secured by a lien on
substantially all of the assets of Express Holding and its domestic subsidiaries.
Term Loan
In December 2011, the Company prepaid the $119.7 million outstanding balance under its $125.0 million variable rate term loan ("Term Loan").
Senior Notes
On March 5, 2010, Express, LLC and Express Finance, wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company, co-issued, in a private placement, $250.0 million of
8 3/4% Senior Notes due in 2018 at an offering price of 98.6% of the face value.
