ITEM 1.01  ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.
 
Amendment to Credit Agreement
 
On April 23, 2012, Select Comfort Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer, with respect to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of March 26, 2010, among the same parties.
 
The Amendment changes the Credit Agreement from a secured revolving credit facility for working capital and general corporate purposes, to an unsecured revolving credit facility for such purposes, and makes various changes to or deletions of provisions to reflect the change to an unsecured facility, including releases of the security interests originally granted pursuant to the Credit Agreement.
 
The Amendment provides that upon request of the Company, the amount available to borrow under the revolving credit facility may be increased from $20 million to up to $50 million if some or all of the then existing lenders under the Credit Agreement commit to such increase.  The Amendment extends the maturity date of the credit facility under the Credit Agreement from July 1, 2012 to April 23, 2015.
 
The Amendment decreases the amount of the commitment fees payable by the Company under the Credit Agreement from an amount equal to 0.50% per year on the daily average unused portion of the revolving credit facility, to an amount equal to 0.15% per year of such daily average unused portion.  The Amendment decreases the letter of credit fee payable for each outstanding standby letter of credit under the Credit Agreement, from a per annum rate equal to 2.50% on the undrawn amount of each outstanding letter of credit, to 1.50% of such amount.
 
The Amendment amends the rate at which interest accrues and is payable by the Company in respect of loans outstanding under the revolving credit facility (i) with respect to LIBOR Loans, by decreasing the margin added to the applicable Adjusted LIBO Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for the interest period from (A) 3.00%, to (B) 1.25%, and (ii) with respect to what were called ABR Loans (and under the Amendment are referred to as Adjusted Base Rate Loans), by changing the applicable rate from (A) 0.50%, plus the greater of (I) Daily Three-Month LIBO Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus 1.00% or (II) the prime rate, to (B) Daily One-Month LIBO Rate (as defined in the Amendment), plus 1.50% or the prime rate, as selected by the Company.
 
The Amendment changes certain financial covenants in the Credit Agreement by deleting the covenants requiring a minimum consolidated net worth and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and replacing them with a required minimum tangible net worth covenant and a requirement to maintain a minimum amount of cash and cash equivalents and to maintain at the administrative agent cash and cash equivalents equal to the amount the lenders are committed to lend under the Credit Agreement (as amended by the Amendment).  The Amendment deletes the limit on capital expenditures and the requirement that the Company maintain a zero balance under the revolving credit facility for at least 30 consecutive days in each fiscal year of the Company.
 
The Amendment increases certain maximum limits applicable to purchase-money debt and to permitted foreign subsidiary intra-company debt and intra-company guaranties of foreign subsidiary debt, from $2,500,000 to $10,000,000, and increases from $2,500,000 to $10,000,000 the amount that monetary claims asserted against the Company must exceed before required to be reported to the administrative agent under the Credit Agreement.  The Amendment revises the definition of Permitted Acquisition by increasing the amount of consideration that may be paid under that definition from $10,000,000 to $25,000,000.
