Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Master Agreement and Equipment Security Note

On December 29, 2010, the Company entered into a Master Loan and Security Agreement (the "Master Agreement"), by and between the Company and Banc of America Leasing & Capital, LLC, and an Equipment Security Note (together with the Master Agreement, the "Loan Documents"), by and among the Company, Banc of America Leasing & Capital, LLC, and Bank of Utah, as agent ("Agent").

The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Loan Documents to refinance certain equipment already purchased and to purchase new equipment for use in the Company's distribution facility.

Form of Loans and Borrowing Limits

Borrowings made pursuant to the Master Agreement may be in the form of one or more equipment security notes (each a "Note," and, collectively, the "Notes") up to a maximum limit of $80.0 million and each for a term of 60 months. The Note entered into on the same date as the Master Agreement represents a borrowing of approximately $39.2 million.

Interest

Interest will accrue at a fixed rate of 3.54% per annum on the entire principal amount of the Note entered into on the same date as the Master Agreement.

Fees

A fee of $750,000 was paid on December 10, 2010 for the commitment by Banc of America Leasing & Capital, LLC to underwrite the loan.

Security

To secure the punctual payment and performance of the Company's obligations under each Note, the Company grants to Agent a continuing security interest in all of the Company's right, title and interest in and to all equipment (as such term is defined in the UCC) now or hereafter comprising or used in connection with the distribution facility, together with: (i) all parts, attachments, accessories and accessions to, substitutions and replacements for, each item thereof; (ii) all accounts, chattel paper, and general intangibles arising from or related to any sale, lease, rental or other disposition thereof to third parties, or otherwise resulting from the possession, use or operation of any thereof by third parties, including instruments, investment property, deposit accounts, letter of credit rights, and supporting obligations arising thereunder or in connection therewith; (iii) all insurance, warranty and other claims against third parties with respect to any thereof; (iv) all software specifically and exclusively used in the operation of the equipment; (v) proceeds of all of the foregoing, including insurance proceeds and any proceeds in the form of goods, accounts, chattel paper, documents, instruments, general intangibles, investment property, deposit accounts, letter of credit rights and supporting obligations; and (vi) all books and records regarding the foregoing, in each case, then existing or thereafter arising.

Events of Default

The Loan Documents provide for customary events of default with corresponding grace periods, including payment defaults, failure to maintain insurance, cross defaults with certain other indebtedness to third parties and bankruptcy events. In the case of a continuing event of default, the lenders may, among other remedies, accelerate the payment of all obligations due from the Company and declare the prepayment amount due and payable, and take possession of the equipment, charge the Company the default rate of interest on all then outstanding or thereafter incurred obligations.
