AMENDED AND RESTATED PRIVATE LABEL 
CONSUMER CREDIT CARD PROGRAM AGREEMENT

This Twelfth Amendment to Amended and Restated Private Label Consumer Credit Carder Program Agreement (the “Amendment”) is entered into and effective as of January 13, 2014, by and between GE Capital Retailer Bank (“Bank”), Select Comfort Corporation (“Select Comfort”) and Select Comfort Retail Corporation (“SCRC” and collectively with Select Comfort, “Retailer”), and amends that certain Amended and Restated Private Label Consumer Credit Card Program Agreement, dated as of December 14, 2005 (as amended, modified and supplemented from time to time, the “Agreement”), among such parties. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meaning given in the Agreement.
WHEREAS, Bank and Retailer wish to amend the Agreement to add provisions to reflect the parties’ mutual expectations regarding any third party vendor Retailer may retain to the extent such vendor may have access to consumer information generated through the Program. 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the parties hereby agree as follows:
I. AMENDMENTS TO THE AGREEMENT
1.1    Addition of Section 13.20.  A new Section 13.20 is hereby added to the Agreement as follows:
“13.20    Third Party Vendor.  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 13.3, Bank agrees that Retail may, from time to time and without the prior consent of Bank, engage one or more third party vendors and/or contractors in connection with the assertion of Retailer’s rights or performance of Retailer’s obligations hereunder, in each case on behalf of the Retailer; provided that Retailer acknowledges and agrees that the following terms and conditions shall apply with respect to any such third party vendor or contractor Retailer engages in any capacity in connection with its rights or obligations hereunder if such third party would receive or have access to any non-public personal information about any Cardholder or applicant, including, but not limited to, through the operation of the Retailer Website (each such third party is referred to herein as a “Third Party Vendor”):  
(i) prior to engaging any Third Party Vendor, Retailer shall (x) notify Bank of its intention to engage such Third Party Vendor, and (y) ensure that such Third Party Vendor has sufficient controls in place to comply with clauses (iii) and (iv) below; 
(ii) for each Third Party Vendor authorized to process Credit Card transactions through the Retailer Website, the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including those applicable to settlement, chargeback rights and indemnities, shall apply to all transactions in which such Third Party Vendor processes any Credit Card transaction or otherwise participates in the Program on behalf of Retailer and Retailer shall have the same responsibility and liability under this Agreement with respect to such transactions and participation as if Retailer had accepted the Account and sold the merchandise and/or services; 

(iii) without limiting the preceding clause (ii), Retailer shall be responsible for each Third Party Vendor’s compliance with the provisions of Sections 13.1(a) and 13.5(c) notwithstanding that Bank, and not Retailer, may have provided the applicable Cardholder Information to such Third Party Vendor; 
(iv) the provisions of Section 13.5(d) shall apply to the Third Party Vendor and any breach of its systems, and Retailer shall be responsible for satisfying the obligations of the “Affected Party” in any case in which there has been any actual or threatened breach of such Third Party Vendor’s systems; 
(v) as between Bank and the Third Party Vendor, Bank is and shall remain the sole and exclusive owner of all right, title and interest in and to all Cardholder Information provided, however, that under no circumstance will Cardholder Information be deemed to include information received by Retailer or the Third Party Vendor separate and apart from the Program or New Program, even if such information is in whole or in part identical to any such information received by Bank through the Program or New Program, including information received by Bank as part of Credit Card applications.  Such independently developed information shall not be subject to the use restrictions set forth herein and may be used by Retailer and the Third Party Vendor in any lawful manner and for any lawful purpose.; 
(vi) to the extent the Third Party Vendor has access to Cardholder Information in connection with the processing of Credit Card transactions, including through the Retailer Website, it shall only use such Cardholder Information for the limited purpose of processing Credit Card transactions through the Retailer Website, and shall not, without the express written consent of Bank, in each instance, commingle any Cardholder Information with any other data or information; and 
(vii) Bank may terminate or suspend the functionality of the Credit Cards on the Retailer Website at any time upon notice to Retailer if Bank determines that (x) such Third Party Vendor is failing to comply in all material respects with (1) the terms of the Agreement, as applicable to it through this Section 13.20, or (2) applicable law, or (y) allowing the Third Party Vendor to continue to receive or have access to Cardholder Information, including in connection with processing Credit Card transactions through the Retailer Website, is likely to result in reputational or business harm to Bank.
II. GENERAL
2.1    Authority for Amendment.  The execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment has been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action on the part of Retailer and Bank and upon execution by all parties, will constitute a legal, binding obligation thereof.
2.2    Effect of Amendment.  Except as specifically amended hereby, the Agreement, and all terms contained therein, remains in full force and effect.  In the case of any conflict between the terms of this Amendment and the Agreement, the terms of this Amendment shall control.  The Agreement, as amended by this Amendment, constitutes the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. 

2

2.3    Binding Effect; Severability.  Each reference herein to a party hereto shall be deemed to include its successors and assigns, all of whom shall be bound by this Amendment and in whose favor the provisions of this Amendment shall inure.  In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Amendment shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
2.4    Further Assurances.  The parties hereto agree to execute such other documents and instruments and to do such other and further things as may be necessary or desirable for the execution and implementation of this amendment and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.
2.5    Governing Law.  This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Utah.
2.6    Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one agreement.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Bank and Retailer have caused this Amendment to be executed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the date first written above.

THIRTEENTH AMENDMENT TO 
AMENDED AND RESTATED PRIVATE LABEL 
CONSUMER CREDIT CARD PROGRAM AGREEMENT

THIS THIRTEENTH AMENDMENT TO AMENDED AND RESTATED PRIVATE LABEL CONSUMER CREDIT CARD PROGRAM AGREEMENT (the “Amendment”) dated as of January 13, 2014 amends that certain Amended and Restated Private Label Consumer Credit Card Program Agreement, dated as of December 14, 2005 (as previously amended, the “Agreement”), by and between Select Comfort Corporation and Select Comfort Retail Corporation (collectively, “Retailer”) and GE Capital Retail Bank (formerly known as GE Money Bank) (“Bank”).  Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meanings given them in the Agreement.
WHEREAS, Bank and Retailer wish to add provisions to the Agreement that will allow the parties to establish a separate consumer credit program (the name of which shall be established by Bank and as specifically defined pursuant to Section 1.2 of this Amendment, the “New Program”) that will operate in parallel with the consumer revolving financing program currently offered under the Program.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants herein contained, and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:
I.AMENDMENT TO THE AGREEMENT

1.1    Conforming Section Amendments for New Program.  

A.General Statement; Notice of New Program Terms.  Anything in the Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Retailer and Bank agree that Bank shall offer and Retailer shall participate in the New Program and accept New Accounts to finance purchases from Retailer as set forth herein.  Bank shall give Retailer written notice of any changes to the terms and conditions of the New Program at least thirty (30) days  prior to the effective date of such changes. It is the intention of Bank and Retailer that the provisions of the Agreement that relate to the acceptance of Credit Cards, the submission of Charge Transaction Data to Bank in connection therewith, the issuance of related credits, the resolution of disputes and the processing of related chargebacks and all provisions relating to the confidentiality, privacy and security of the resulting information shall apply to the New Program to the greatest extent possible.  For the avoidance of doubt, any limitations or prohibitions set forth in the Agreement on financing a particular product or service (or category of products or services) on Accounts shall apply equally to financing any such product or service on New Accounts.  Without limiting the foregoing, and anything in the Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Retailer shall not accept New Accounts to finance the purchase of gift cards, gift certificates or similar products or to reload any such products.
 
B.Section 2.2 (Retailer’s Responsibilities).  The rights and responsibilities of Retailer pursuant to Section 2.2 shall apply to New Accountholders and the New Program, except in any circumstance in which a provision purports to (or should reasonably be read to) deal solely with the Program and, in such case, such provision shall apply solely to the Program; provided that Retailer may 

elect to emphasize either the  promotion of the Program over the New Program or the New Program over the Program, as it determines in its sole discretion, from time to time. 

C.Settlement; Promotional Rates; Re-pricing (Sections 3.1, 3.4 and 3.5). 
 
1.Except as set forth in the next sentence, the settlement provisions of Section 3.1 and the Program Fee payment provisions of Section 3.4 shall apply to Charge Transaction Data submitted by Retailer in connection with the acceptance of New Accounts to the same extent as Charge Transaction Data submitted in connection with Accounts originated under the Program.  The foregoing notwithstanding, for any purchase financed on a New Account that is equal to or greater than Three Hundred Dollars ($300), Retailer shall apply a credit based promotion with an interest deferral period of twelve (12) months (a “12 Month WPDI Promotion”); provided that, if the New Accountholder declines such promotional offer (or the purchase is less than Three Hundred Dollars ($300)), then the standard, non-promotional New Accountholder terms (including the Base Rate) shall apply to such purchase. 

2.The initial Promotional Rate for the 12 Month WPDI Promotion offered to New Accountholders shall be the same as the Promotional Rate offered to Cardholders under the Program as of the date hereof; provided, that Bank shall have the right, in its discretion, to alter the 12 Month WPDI Promotion Promotional Rate solely with respect to the New Program at any time upon fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice to Retailer.  Bank shall also have the right to revise the Base Rate with respect to the New Program upon fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice to Retailer.  In either such case, if Retailer rejects the revised Promotional Rate or the revised Base Rate, as the case may be, Retailer’s sole remedy shall be to terminate the New Program pursuant to Section 9.2(p).  If Retailer accepts the revised Promotional Rate for the 12 Month WPDI Promotion to be offered under the New Program, or the revised Base Rate, any such increase shall not be taken into account with respect to Retailer’s termination right under Section 9.2(m).
 
3.The definitions of “Program Fee”, ”Promotional Rate” and “Base Rate” are deemed revised for purposes of the preceding paragraphs so as to include Charge Transaction Data related to New Accounts.

D.Solicitation; Program Economics Generally.  

1.Anything in the Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Bank shall have the right to solicit Cardholders for New Accounts with the prior written consent of Retailer (which may be by email).  

2.All references in the Agreement to “Net Program Sales” for any period shall be deemed to include net sales volume and credits relating to purchases financed on New Accounts during such period, and otherwise consistent with the definition of Net Program Sales.

2

E.Article 6 (Other Agreements).  Anything in Article 6 to the contrary notwithstanding, the following terms and conditions shall apply with respect to New Accounts and the New Program:  (1) Bank shall own and have sole control over all New Accounts and all information pertaining to New Accounts and New Accountholders (“New Accountholder Information”), except that under no circumstances will New Accountholder Information be deemed to include information received by Retailer separate or apart from the New Program, even if such information is in whole or in part identical to any such information received by Bank through the New Program, including information received by Bank as part of credit applications, and such independently  developed information shall not be subject to the use restrictions set forth in Section 6.2 or this Section 1.1E.; (2) Retailer shall not have access to any New Accountholder Information; (3) Bank shall have sole control over all New Account terms and conditions and the credit criteria used to manage New Accounts; (4) The Operating Procedures shall apply to Retailer’s acceptance of New Accounts; provided, that Bank may distribute in the ordinary course any additional Operating Procedures applicable to the New Program and such additional Operating Procedures will be effective within a reasonable period after distribution; (5) Indebtedness applicable to New Accounts shall not be included in the “Credit Review Point” applicable to the Program (or for any similar purpose under the Agreement); (6) billing inserts and statement messages applicable to New Accounts shall only be available to Bank or its designees; (7) Retailer shall not accept any payment from a New Accountholder on such person’s New Account; and (8) the provisions of Section 6.1(b) apply to New Accounts (subject to the limits on chargeback rights provided in Section 1.1F. below.) 

F.Sections 7.1 and 7.2 (Chargebacks; Fraud Losses).  The provisions of Section 7.1 shall apply to the New Program, other than Section 7.1(b) (regarding applications), which shall apply solely to the Program.  Section 7.2 shall not apply to New Accounts.

G.Section 9.2 (Termination).   The following is hereby added to the end of Section 9.2:  

(p)  Either party shall have the right to terminate the New Program, without cause, upon fifteen (15) days’ written notice to the other party.  The parties acknowledge and agree that a decision by either party to terminate the New Program at any time and for any reason shall not result in a termination of the Program; provided, that if either party terminates the Program pursuant to any other provision of Section 9.2 or the Program is terminated upon expiration of the Term, then such termination shall apply to the New Program as well.  In any case in which a party shall have terminated the New Program pursuant to this Section or the New Program shall have been terminated under the preceding sentence, the parties acknowledge that their respective obligations under the Agreement with respect to transactions occurring on New Accounts prior to such termination shall continue (e.g., chargeback and credit processing).  Without limiting the foregoing, following any termination of the New Program, Bank shall have the sole right to liquidate any or all of the New Accounts in any manner Bank reasonably determines
1.2.    Amendments to Appendix A.   The definitions of “Cardholder” and “Charge Transaction Data” are restated and the definitions “New Account”, “New Accountholder” and “New Program” are hereby added to Appendix A as set forth below:

3

Charge Transaction Data shall also include New Account and related New Accountholder and authorized user identification and transaction information transmitted by Retailer to Bank with regard to a charge or a credit to a New Account.
“New Account” means the legal relationship established by and between a New Accountholder and Bank pursuant to a credit card agreement connected to the New Program, together with all indebtedness owing thereunder from time to time and any current or future guaranties, security or other credit support therefor.

“New Accountholder” means individuals who have applied for and been approved for a new Account under the New Program.
