 SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED
LOAN AGREEMENT 
 THIS SECOND AMENDED AND
RESTATED LOAN AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of the 23rd day of March, 2006, by and between LUMBER LIQUIDATORS, INC. (the
“Company”), a Massachusetts corporation, with a principal office located at 3000 John Deere Run, Toano, Virginia 23169, and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A. (the “Bank”), a national
banking association, with an office located at 1111 East Main Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219. 
 The Company and the Bank are parties
to an Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated as of January 21, 2005 (the “Original Loan Agreement”), pursuant to which the Bank made at term loan to the Company (“Term Loan #1”), evidenced by an Amended and
Restated Term Loan Note dated June 11, 2004, in the stated principal amount of $6,500,000, made by the Company and payable to the order of the Bank. 
 Pursuant to the terms of a Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note dated February 2, 2005, in the stated principal amount of $5,000,000, made by the Company and payable to the order of the Bank, the Bank made
a draw-down term loan to the Company (“Term Loan #2”). 
 Pursuant to the terms of a Promissory Note dated July 19,
2005, in the stated principal amount of $2,000,000, made by the Company and payable to the order of the Bank, the Bank made a second draw-down term loan to the Company (“Term Loan #3” and, together with Term Loan #1 and Term Loan
#2, the “Existing Indebtedness”). 
 The Bank may from time to time in the future extend additional credit to or make other
financial accommodation available for the benefit of the Company (the “Future Indebtedness” and, together with the Existing Indebtedness, the “Indebtedness”), in each case pursuant to documents evidencing,
governing, guaranteeing, securing or otherwise executed by the Company or any other party in connection with such Future Indebtedness, including without limitation commitment letters, promissory notes, loan agreements, security agreements, guaranty
agreements, deeds of trust, letters of credit or reimbursement agreements or tri-party financing agreements (the documents relating to the Existing Indebtedness and the Future Indebtedness, together with the Loan Documents (as hereinafter defined),
being hereinafter referred to as the “Indebtedness Documents”). The Term Loan Note (as hereinafter defined), the Revolving Credit Note (as hereinafter defined) and each other promissory note executed and delivered by the Company to
the Bank to evidence the Existing Indebtedness and the Future Indebtedness shall be referred to herein individually as a “Note” and collectively as the “Notes.” 
 At the request of the Company, the Bank has agreed to amend and restate the terms of the Original Loan Agreement in order to (i) consolidate Term
Loan #1, Term Loan #2 and Term Loan #3 into a single term loan, (ii) provide for a revolving credit facility in the maximum principal amount of $5,000,000, (iii) modify the interest rates and certain financial and other covenants set forth
in the Original Loan Agreement, and (iv) provide that all Indebtedness will be governed by the terms and be subject to the conditions contained herein, as well as the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Indebtedness Documents.

  

 - 1 - 








 Accordingly, the Company and the Bank agree that the Original Loan Agreement is hereby amended and
restated in its entirety as follows: 
 ARTICLE 1 
 TERM LOAN 
 Section 1.1 General Description; Consolidation.
The Company and the Bank acknowledge that the Bank has made Term Loan #1, Term Loan #2 and Term Loan #3 to the Company, and that the current aggregate outstanding principal balance of Term Loan #1, Term Loan #2 and Term Loan #3 on the date of this
Agreement is $9,880,533.62. The Company and the Bank agree that Term Loan #1, Term Loan #2 and Term Loan #3 shall be consolidated into a single term loan in the original principal amount of Nine Million Eight Hundred Eighty Thousand Five Hundred
Thirty-Three and 62/100 Dollars ($9,880,533.62) (the “Term Loan”). 
 Section 1.2 Term Loan Note. The
Company’s obligation to repay the Term Loan will be evidenced by a consolidated, amended and restated term loan note in the principal amount of the Term Loan, made by the Company and payable to the order of the Bank, and otherwise in form and
substance satisfactory to the Bank (as the same may be extended, amended, restated or replaced from time to time, the “Term Loan Note”), the terms of which are incorporated herein by this reference. 
 Section 1.3 Interest Rate. The outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan Note will bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual
number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at the per annum interest rate equal to the Base Rate (as hereinafter defined) plus the Applicable Margin (as hereinafter defined). For purposes hereof: 
 (a) “Base Rate” means, subject to Section 1.6, the LIBOR Daily Floating Rate; provided that the Company shall have the option,
exercisable at any time by notice to the Bank, to convert the Base Rate from the LIBOR Daily Floating Rate to the Prime Rate (as hereinafter defined). The Base Rate shall be adjusted with each change in the LIBOR Daily Floating Rate or Prime Rate,
as applicable. 
 (b) “LIBOR Daily Floating Rate” for any day means the fluctuating rate of interest (rounded upwards, if
necessary to the nearest 1/100 of 1%) appearing on Telerate Page 3750 (or any successor page) as the 1 month London interbank offered rate for deposits in United States Dollars at approximately 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the second preceding
business day, as adjusted from time to time in Lender’s sole discretion for then-applicable reserve requirements, deposit insurance assessment rates and other regulatory costs. 
 (c) “Prime Rate” for any day means the rate of interest equal to the Bank’s “Prime Rate” of interest publicly announced
from time to time by the Bank. Any change in the Prime Rate shall take effect at the opening of business on the day specified in the public announcement of a change in the Bank’s “Prime Rate”. 
 Section 1.4 Prepayments. The Company may, without premium or penalty (subject to any breakage fees or redeployment costs incurred by the Bank
as the result of the Term Loan Note bearing interest at the LIBOR Daily Floating Rate), prepay amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Note in whole or in part at any time and from time to time, provided that (i) all 

  

 - 2 - 








 
accrued interest is paid at the time the Term Loan Note is paid in full and (ii) all partial prepayments shall be applied first to the interest accrued
to the prepayment date and then to the reduction of principal installments due under the Term Loan Note in their inverse chronological order of maturity, or in such other order as the Bank may determine in its sole and absolute discretion. The Term
Loan is not a revolving loan; the Company may not reborrow amounts voluntarily prepaid under the Term Loan Note. 
 Section 1.5
Applicable Margin. The term “Applicable Margin” means (i) 0.90% (or -1.75% in the event the Base Rate has been converted to the Prime Rate) for the period from the date hereof through and including the first day of the
first month following receipt by the Bank of the Company’s financial statements described in Section 4.1(a) for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2005, and (ii) thereafter shall be determined by reference to the Funded Debt to
EBITDAR Ratio (as hereinafter defined) in accordance with the following table: 
  

						
	 Funded Debt to EBITDAR Ratio
	  	 Applicable Margin
 when Base Rate is
 LIBOR Daily

 Floating Rate
	 	 	 Applicable Margin
 when Base Rate is
 Prime
Rate

	 Equal to or higher than 1.75 to 1
	  	1.15	%	 	-1.50
	 Equal to or higher than 1.25 to 1 but lower than 1.75 to 1
	  	0.90	%	 	-1.75
	 Equal to or higher than 0.75 to 1 but lower than 1.25 to 1
	  	0.65	%	 	-2.00
	 Lower than 0.75 to 1
	  	0.45	%	 	-2.20

 Except during the initial period described in clause (i) above, the Applicable Margin will be
automatically adjusted as of the first day of the first month following receipt by the Bank of the Company’s financial statements pursuant to Section 4.1(a) or Section 4.1(b) demonstrating to the Bank’s reasonable satisfaction
that there has been a change in the Funded Debt to EBITDAR Ratio which would cause a change in the Applicable Margin in accordance with the preceding table. Any such change shall apply to all Notes that, by their terms, bear interest at a rate which
incorporates the “Applicable Margin” set forth in this Agreement. At all times after and during the continuance of an Event of Default with respect to the Company’s obligations under Section 4.1(a) or Section 4.1(b) until
the delivery of the applicable financial statements required pursuant thereto, the Applicable Margin shall be 1.15% (or -1.50% in the event the Base Rate has been converted to the Prime Rate). 
 Section 1.6 Other Interest Rate Provisions. 
 (a) If either (i) the introduction of or any change (including, without limitation, any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements other than those included in the computation of the LIBOR
Daily Floating Rate but excluding any income tax on the overall income of the Bank) after the date hereof in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation, or (ii) the compliance by the Bank with any guideline or directive (whether or not


  

 - 3 - 








 
having the force of law) adopted or otherwise asserted after the date hereof by any central bank, the United States, any state or other political subdivision
thereof, or any court, agency, department, commission, board, bureau or instrumentality of any of the foregoing (each, a “Governmental Authority”), shall result in an increase in the cost to the Bank of making, funding or
maintaining any Indebtedness bearing interest at a rate based on the LIBOR Daily Floating Rate or reduce the amount receivable by the Bank with respect to such Indebtedness, then the Company shall from time to time, upon demand by the Bank, pay to
the Bank additional amounts sufficient to indemnify the Bank against such increased cost incurred or reduction in amount received. A certificate in reasonable detail as to the amount of such increased cost or reduction in amount and method of
calculation will be submitted to the Company by the Bank and will be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (b) If the Bank determines that, by
reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market generally, deposits in Eurodollars in the applicable amounts or for the applicable periods are not being quoted or offered to the Bank, the Bank shall promptly notify the Company,
whereupon (unless the Company and the Bank shall have agreed on an alternative method of determining the interest rate for any Indebtedness bearing interest at a rate based on the LIBOR Daily Floating Rate) the definition of “Base
Rate” applicable to such Indebtedness shall automatically be converted to the Prime Rate. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Prime Rate is a reference used in determining interest rates on certain loans made by the Bank and is not
intended to be the lowest rate of interest charged on any extension of credit to any customer. 
 (c) If, after the date of this Agreement,
the introduction of, or any change in, any applicable law, rule or regulation or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by the Bank with
any guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, shall make it unlawful or impossible for the Bank to make, maintain or fund any Indebtedness at a rate based on the LIBOR Daily Floating Rate,
the Bank shall promptly notify the Company, and the obligation of the Bank to make or maintain such Indebtedness at a rate based on the LIBOR Daily Floating Rate shall forthwith be suspended for the duration of such illegality or impossibility. Upon
such notice, on either (i) the last day of the then current calendar month if the Bank may lawfully continue to maintain such Indebtedness at a rate based on the LIBOR Daily Floating Rate to such day, or (ii) immediately if the Bank may
not lawfully continue to maintain such Indebtedness at a rate based on the LIBOR Daily Floating Rate to such day, the definition of “Base Rate” applicable to such Indebtedness shall automatically be converted to the Prime Rate.

 ARTICLE 1A 
 REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY 
 Section 1A.1 General Description. Upon
the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement (including, without limitation, the conditions contained in Article 2), the Bank agrees to make a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”)
available to the Company, and to make advances under the Revolving Credit Facility to the Company from time to time, during the period from the date of this Agreement until the earlier to occur of (i) May 31, 2008, or (ii) the date on
which the Bank’s obligation to make further 

  

 - 4 - 








 
advances under the Revolving Credit Facility is terminated pursuant to Section 6.2 (the “Revolving Credit Termination Date”); provided
that the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding advances under the Revolving Credit Facility plus the aggregate stated amount of any Letters of Credit (as hereinafter defined) issued by the Bank for the account of the Company shall not at any
time exceed Five Million and No/100 Dollars ($5,000,000) (the “Revolving Credit Facility Cap”). Within such limits, the Company may borrow, repay and reborrow under the Revolving Credit Facility on or after the date of this
Agreement and prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date. 
 Section 1A.2 Revolving Credit Note. The Company’s
obligation to repay the advances made under the Revolving Credit Facility will be evidenced by a revolving credit note in the principal amount of the Revolving Credit Facility Cap, made by the Company and payable to the order of the Bank, and
otherwise in form and substance satisfactory to the Bank (as the same may be extended, amended, restated or replaced from time to time, the “Revolving Credit Note”), the terms of which are incorporated herein by this reference. The
Company acknowledges and agrees that the Bank may endorse on the Revolving Credit Note (or any schedule attached thereto) or otherwise make in the Bank’s records an appropriate notation of the date and amount of each advance made under the
Revolving Credit Facility and the date and amount of any payments or prepayments of the Revolving Credit Facility. Such endorsements or other notations shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as to the outstanding principal balance of
the Revolving Credit Facility; provided, however, the Bank’s error in making or failure to make any such endorsement or notation shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Company hereunder or under the Revolving Credit Note.

 Section 1A.3 Purpose. The Company will use advances under the Revolving Credit Facility for short-term working capital and for
other general corporate purposes. 
 Section 1A.4 Repayment Terms; Interest Rate. 
 (a) Accrued interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Facility as it
exists from time to time will be due and payable on the first (1st) day of each month, on any date on which the Revolving Credit Facility is paid in
full and on the Revolving Credit Termination Date. On the Revolving Credit Termination Date, the entire outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Facility, together with all unpaid accrued interest thereon and all other amounts then
owing thereunder, will be immediately due and payable in full. 
 (b) The outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit
Facility as it exists from time to time will bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at the per annum interest rate equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. 
 Section 1A.5 Manner of Borrowing. Unless the Company and the Bank agree to the contrary in writing, each advance made by the Bank under the
Revolving Credit Facility will be made at the office of the Bank set forth at the beginning of this Agreement by crediting the amount of such advance to the general deposit account of the Company maintained at the Bank. The Company acknowledges and
agrees that the Bank may make advances under the Revolving

Credit Facility (i) upon receipt of a written or telephonic request therefor from any person the Bank reasonably believes to be an authorized
representative of the Company, or (ii) pursuant to the terms of the automatic borrowing feature described in any AutoBorrow Service Agreement entered into by and between the Company and the Bank on or after the date hereof. 
 Section 1A.6 Prepayments. 
 (a)
Voluntary. The Company may, without premium or penalty (subject to any breakage fees or redeployment costs incurred by the Bank as the result of the Revolving Credit Facility bearing interest at the LIBOR Daily Floating Rate), prepay amounts
outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility in whole or in part in any amount at any time and from time to time. 
 (b) Mandatory.
If, at any time, the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Facility plus the aggregate stated amount of any Letters of Credit issued by the Bank for the account of the Company exceeds the Revolving Credit Facility Cap, the Company
will immediately prepay the Revolving Credit Facility, without premium or penalty, in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess. 
 Section 1A.7 Unused Commitment Fee. Commencing on April 1, 2006 (for the period from the date hereof until March 31 2006), and continuing on the first day of each July, October, January and April thereafter and on the
Revolving Credit Termination Date, the Company shall pay to the Bank a per annum non-refundable unused commitment fee equal to 0.25% of the difference between the Revolving Credit Facility Cap and the average outstanding principal balance of the
Revolving Credit Facility during the preceding three (3) month period. 
 Section 1A.8 Letters of Credit. The Company may
from time to time apply to the Bank for one or more letters of credit (each, a “Letter of Credit” and, collectively, the “Letters of Credit”) pursuant to applications and such other documentation as the Bank shall
require (collectively, the “Letter of Credit Documents”). Each Letter of Credit and any related Letter of Credit Documents shall constitute Indebtedness Documents hereunder.

 (C) ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS WILL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE ACT, THE THEN-CURRENT RULES AND
PROCEDURES FOR THE ARBITRATION OF FINANCIAL SERVICES DISPUTES OF THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION OR ANY SUCCESSOR THEREOF (“AAA”), AND THE TERMS OF THIS SECTION. IN THE EVENT OF ANY INCONSISTENCY, THE TERMS OF THIS SECTION SHALL
CONTROL. IF AAA IS UNWILLING OR UNABLE TO (I) SERVE AS THE PROVIDER OF ARBITRATION, OR (II) ENFORCE ANY PROVISION OF THIS SECTION, ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY SUBSTITUTE ANOTHER ARBITRATION ORGANIZATION WITH SIMILAR PROCEDURES TO SERVE
AS THE PROVIDER OF ARBITRATION. 
 (D) THE ARBITRATION SHALL BE ADMINISTERED BY AAA AND CONDUCTED, UNLESS OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY LAW, IN ANY
U.S. STATE WHERE REAL OR TANGIBLE PERSONAL PROPERTY COLLATERAL FOR THE OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER IS LOCATED OR IF THERE IS NO SUCH COLLATERAL, IN THE STATE SPECIFIED IN THE GOVERNING LAW SECTION OF THIS AGREEMENT. ALL CLAIMS SHALL BE DETERMINED BY ONE
ARBITRATOR; HOWEVER, IF CLAIMS EXCEED FIVE MILLION DOLLARS ($5,000,000), UPON THE REQUEST OF ANY PARTY, THE CLAIMS SHALL BE DECIDED BY THREE ARBITRATORS. ALL ARBITRATION HEARINGS SHALL COMMENCE WITHIN NINETY (90) DAYS OF THE DEMAND FOR

THE ARBITRATION ON THE BASIS THAT THE CLAIM IS BARRED. FOR PURPOSES OF THE APPLICATION OF THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS, THE SERVICE ON AAA UNDER APPLICABLE AAA RULES OF A NOTICE OF CLAIM IS THE EQUIVALENT OF THE FILING OF A LAWSUIT. ANY DISPUTE

 The outstanding principal balance of this Note as it exists from time to time will bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days
elapsed over a year of 360 days) at the per annum interest rate equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. 
 This Note will be due and payable in sixty (60) installments of principal, each in the amount of $164,675.56, beginning on April 1, 2006, and continuing on the first (1st) day of each month thereafter to and including March 1, 2011 (the “Maturity Date”), on which date the entire unpaid principal balance of this Note, together with

(1st) day of each month, beginning on April 1, 2006, on any date on which all or any part of this Note is prepaid, and on the Maturity Date. Any
accrued interest under the Prior Notes that remains unpaid on the date hereof will be due and payable on April 1, 2006. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Note to the contrary, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the outstanding principal balance of this Note will bear 








 
interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at the per annum rate of interest (the “Default
Rate”) equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin plus four percent (4.00%). The Default Rate will be effective on the first date as of which the applicable Event of Default occurs notwithstanding the fact that such Event of Default
may not be reported or otherwise discovered until a subsequent date, and such Default Rate will not decrease for any reason thereafter unless the Bank, in its sole and absolute discretion, notifies the Company of such a change in writing.

 In the event that the Company fails to pay any installment of principal and/or interest on this Note within fifteen (15) days after
its due date, the Company will pay to the Bank without demand a late charge equal to four percent (4.00%) of the amount of such installment. 
 The Company may, without premium or penalty (subject to any breakage fees or redeployment costs incurred by the Bank as the result of this Note bearing interest at the LIBOR Daily Floating Rate), prepay amounts outstanding under this Note
in whole or in part at any time and from time to time, provided that (i) all accrued interest is paid at the time this Note is paid in full and (ii) all partial prepayments will be applied first to the interest accrued to the prepayment
date and then to the reduction of principal installments due under this Note in their inverse chronological order of maturity, or in such other order as the Bank may determine in its sole and absolute discretion. This Note does not evidence a
revolving loan; the Company may not reborrow amounts voluntarily prepaid under this Note. 
 The Company agrees that all amounts owing under
this Note, including principal, interest and fees, will be deducted automatically on the due date thereof as set forth in Section 7.2 of the Loan Agreement. 
 The occurrence of any Event of Default will constitute a default under this Note, and such Events of Default are incorporated herein by this reference. In the event of the occurrence of any or all of such Events of
Default, the entire unpaid principal balance of this Note together with all accrued interest will become or may be declared immediately due and payable in the manner and with the effect as provided in the Loan Agreement, and the Bank will have all
other rights and remedies provided for in the Loan Agreement, the other Indebtedness Documents or otherwise available at law or equity. 
 The Company agrees to reimburse the Bank for any expenses it incurs in the preparation of this Note and any agreement or instrument related to this Note. Such expenses include, but are not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees,
including any allocated costs of the Bank’s in-house counsel to the extent permitted by applicable law. Furthermore, the Company will reimburse the Bank for any reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees incurred by the Bank in connection with
the enforcement or preservation of any rights or remedies under this Note and any other documents executed in connection with this Note, and in connection with any amendment, waiver, “workout” or restructuring under this Note. In the event
of a lawsuit or arbitration proceeding, the prevailing party is entitled to recover costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with the lawsuit or arbitration proceeding, as determined by the court or arbitrator. In the event
that any case is commenced by or against the Company under the Bankruptcy Code (Title 11, United States Code) or any similar or successor statute, the Bank is entitled to recover costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the Bank related
to the

preservation, protection or enforcement of any rights of the Bank in such a case. As used in this paragraph, “attorneys’ fees” includes the
allocated costs of the Bank’s in-house counsel to the extent permitted by applicable law. 
 Presentment, demand, protest and notice of
dishonor are hereby waived by the Company and each endorser hereon or other guarantor or obligor hereof. 
 This Note will be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. 
 THIS PARAGRAPH AND THE FOLLOWING SEVEN SUBPARAGRAPHS (THESE
“ARBITRATION PROVISIONS”) CONCERN THE RESOLUTION OF ANY CONTROVERSIES OR CLAIMS BETWEEN THE PARTIES TO THIS NOTE, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR BY STATUTE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO CONTROVERSIES OR CLAIMS THAT ARISE OUT
OF OR RELATE TO: (I) THIS NOTE (INCLUDING ANY RENEWALS, EXTENSIONS OR MODIFICATIONS), OR (II) ANY DOCUMENT RELATED TO THIS NOTE (INDIVIDUALLY AND COLLECTIVELY, A “CLAIM”). FOR THE PURPOSES OF THESE ARBITRATION PROVISIONS
ONLY, THE TERM “PARTIES” SHALL INCLUDE ANY PARENT CORPORATION, SUBSIDIARY OR AFFILIATE OF THE BANK INVOLVED IN THE SERVICING, MANAGEMENT OR ADMINISTRATION OF ANY OBLIGATION DESCRIBED IN OR EVIDENCED BY THIS NOTE. 
 (B) AT THE REQUEST OF ANY PARTY TO THIS NOTE, ANY CLAIM SHALL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT (TITLE 9,
U.S. CODE) (THE “ACT”). THE ACT WILL APPLY EVEN THOUGH THIS NOTE PROVIDES THAT IT IS GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF A SPECIFIED STATE. THE ARBITRATION WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS WITHOUT RESORT TO ANY FORM OF CLASS ACTION. 

(C) ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS WILL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE ACT, THE THEN-CURRENT RULES AND PROCEDURES FOR THE ARBITRATION OF FINANCIAL

(I) SERVE AS THE PROVIDER OF ARBITRATION, OR (II) ENFORCE ANY PROVISION OF THIS SECTION, ANY PARTY TO THIS NOTE MAY SUBSTITUTE ANOTHER ARBITRATION ORGANIZATION WITH SIMILAR PROCEDURES TO SERVE AS THE PROVIDER OF ARBITRATION. 
 (D) THE ARBITRATION SHALL BE ADMINISTERED BY AAA AND CONDUCTED, UNLESS OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY LAW, IN ANY U.S. STATE WHERE REAL OR TANGIBLE PERSONAL
PROPERTY COLLATERAL FOR THE OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER IS LOCATED OR IF THERE IS NO SUCH COLLATERAL, IN THE STATE SPECIFIED IN THE GOVERNING LAW SECTION OF THIS NOTE. ALL CLAIMS SHALL BE DETERMINED BY ONE ARBITRATOR; HOWEVER, IF CLAIMS

EXCEED FIVE MILLION DOLLARS ($5,000,000), UPON THE REQUEST OF ANY PARTY, THE CLAIMS SHALL BE DECIDED BY THREE ARBITRATORS. ALL ARBITRATION HEARINGS SHALL
COMMENCE WITHIN NINETY (90) DAYS OF THE DEMAND FOR ARBITRATION AND CLOSE WITHIN NINETY (90) DAYS OF COMMENCEMENT AND THE AWARD OF THE ARBITRATOR(S) SHALL BE ISSUED WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS OF THE CLOSE OF THE HEARING. HOWEVER, THE
ARBITRATOR(S), UPON A SHOWING OF GOOD CAUSE, MAY EXTEND THE COMMENCEMENT OF THE HEARING FOR UP TO AN ADDITIONAL SIXTY (60) DAYS. THE ARBITRATOR(S) SHALL PROVIDE A CONCISE WRITTEN STATEMENT OF REASONS FOR THE AWARD. THE ARBITRATION AWARD MAY BE

 (E) THE ARBITRATOR(S) WILL GIVE EFFECT TO
STATUTES OF LIMITATION IN DETERMINING ANY CLAIM AND MAY DISMISS THE ARBITRATION ON THE BASIS THAT THE CLAIM IS BARRED. FOR PURPOSES OF THE APPLICATION OF THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS, THE SERVICE ON AAA UNDER APPLICABLE AAA RULES OF A NOTICE OF CLAIM
IS THE EQUIVALENT OF THE FILING OF A LAWSUIT. ANY DISPUTE CONCERNING THIS SECTION OR WHETHER A CLAIM IS ARBITRABLE SHALL BE DETERMINED BY THE ARBITRATOR(S). THE ARBITRATOR(S) SHALL HAVE THE POWER TO AWARD LEGAL FEES PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF THIS
NOTE.

 (G) THE FILING OF
A COURT ACTION IS NOT INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE A WAIVER OF THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY, INCLUDING THE SUING PARTY, THEREAFTER TO REQUIRE SUBMITTAL OF THE CLAIM TO ARBITRATION. 
 (H) BY AGREEING TO BINDING ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVE ANY RIGHT THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM. FURTHERMORE, WITHOUT INTENDING IN ANY WAY TO LIMIT THIS

 AMENDED AND RESTATED REVOLVING
CREDIT NOTE 
  

			
	$10,000,000.00	 	July 31, 2006
		 	Richmond, Virginia

 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, LUMBER
LIQUIDATORS, INC. (the “Company”), a Massachusetts corporation, promises to pay to the order of BANK OF AMERICA, N.A. (the “Bank”) at its
office at 1111 East Main Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219, or at such other place as the holder hereof may from time to time designate in writing, the principal sum of TEN MILLION AND
NO/100 DOLLARS ($10,000,000.00), or such lesser principal amount as may be advanced hereunder by the Bank, payable on the terms and dates and in the amounts as hereinafter provided, and to pay interest on the
outstanding principal balance of this Note as it exists from time to time from the date hereof as provided herein. 
 This Note increases,
and amends and restates in its entirety, the $5,000,000 Revolving Credit Note of the Company dated March 23, 2006, payable to the order of the Bank (the “Prior Note”), and this Note is executed and delivered to the Bank as a
replacement of and in substitution for the Prior Note. The execution and delivery of this Note shall not constitute a novation of the debt originally evidenced by the Prior Note. 
 This Note is one of the “Notes” and one of the “Indebtedness Documents” described in, and (to the extent not inconsistent with the
terms of this Note) is subject to the terms and conditions of, a Second Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated as of even date herewith, as amended (as the same may be extended, amended, restated or replaced from time to time, the “Loan
Agreement”), by and between the Company and the Bank. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Note shall have the meanings set forth in the Loan Agreement. 
 The outstanding principal balance of this Note as it exists from time to time will bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days
elapsed over a year of 360 days) at the per annum interest rate equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. 
 Accrued interest on the outstanding principal balance of this Note as it exists from time to time will be due and payable on the first (1st) day of each month, beginning on August 1, 2006, on any date on which this Note is paid in full and on the Revolving Credit Termination Date. On the Revolving Credit Termination Date, the entire unpaid
principal balance of this Note, together with all accrued interest hereon and all other amounts due hereunder, will be immediately due and payable in full. Any accrued interest under the Prior Note that remains unpaid on the date hereof shall also
be due and payable on August 1, 2006. 
 The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Bank may endorse on this Note (or any
schedule attached hereto) or otherwise make in the Bank’s records an appropriate notation of the date and amount of each advance made hereunder and the date and amount of any payments or prepayments hereof. Such endorsements or other notations
shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as to the outstanding principal balance of this Note; provided, however, the Bank’s error in making or failure to make any such endorsement or notation shall not limit or otherwise affect
the obligations of the Company under this Note. 







 Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Note to the contrary, upon the occurrence of
an Event of Default, the outstanding principal balance of this Note will bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at the per annum rate of interest (the “Default Rate”) equal
to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin plus four percent (4.00%). The Default Rate will be effective on the first date as of which the applicable Event of Default occurs notwithstanding the fact that such Event of Default may not be reported or
otherwise discovered until a subsequent date, and such Default Rate will not decrease for any reason thereafter unless the Bank, in its sole and absolute discretion, notifies the Company of such a change in writing. 
 In the event that the Company fails to pay any installment of principal and/or interest on this Note within fifteen (15) days after its due date,
the Company will pay to the Bank without demand a late charge equal to four percent (4.00%) of the amount of such installment. 
 The
Company may, without premium or penalty (subject to any breakage fees or redeployment costs incurred by the Bank as the result of this Note bearing interest at the LIBOR Daily Floating Rate), prepay amounts outstanding under this Note in whole or in
part at any time and from time to time. 
 The Company agrees that all amounts owing under this Note, including principal, interest and fees,
will be deducted automatically on the due date thereof as set forth in Section 7.2 of the Loan Agreement. 
 The occurrence of any Event
of Default will constitute a default under this Note, and such Events of Default are incorporated herein by this reference. In the event of the occurrence of any or all of such Events of Default, the entire unpaid principal balance of this Note
together with all accrued interest will become or may be declared immediately due and payable in the manner and with the effect as provided in the Loan Agreement, and the Bank will have all other rights and remedies provided for in the Loan
Agreement, the other Indebtedness Documents or otherwise available at law or equity. 
 The Company agrees to reimburse the Bank for any
expenses it incurs in the preparation of this Note and any agreement or instrument related to this Note. Such expenses include, but are not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including any allocated costs of the Bank’s in-house
counsel to the extent permitted by applicable law. Furthermore, the Company will reimburse the Bank for any reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees incurred by the Bank in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights or remedies
under this Note and any other documents executed in connection with this Note, and in connection with any amendment, waiver, “workout” or restructuring under this Note. In the event of a lawsuit or arbitration proceeding, the prevailing
party is entitled to recover costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with the lawsuit or arbitration proceeding, as determined by the court or arbitrator. In the event that any case is commenced by or against the Company
under the Bankruptcy Code (Title 11, United States Code) or any similar or successor statute, the Bank is entitled to recover costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the Bank related to the preservation, protection or enforcement of
any rights of the Bank in such a case. As used in this paragraph, “attorneys’ fees” includes the allocated costs of the Bank’s in-house counsel to the extent permitted by applicable law.
