    WITNESSETH:

     

    WHEREAS,
the parties hereto desire further to amend the Credit Agreement to add certain
provisions thereto;

     

    NOW,
THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

     

    Section
1.  Defined Terms;
References.  Unless otherwise specifically defined herein, each
term used herein that is defined in the Credit Agreement has the meaning
assigned to such term in the Credit Agreement.  Each reference to
“hereof”, “hereunder”, “herein” and “hereby” and each other similar reference
and each reference to “this Agreement” and each other similar reference
contained in the Credit Agreement shall, from and after the Amendment Effective
Date (as defined in Section 8 below), refer to the Credit Agreement as amended
hereby.

     

    Section
2.  Definition of
Defaulting Bank.  Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is
hereby amended by adding the following definition of “Defaulting Bank”
immediately after the definition of “Default”:

     

    ‘ “Defaulting Bank” means any
Bank that,
at any time during the term of this Agreement, has
(a) failed to fund any portion of
any of its Loans within three Domestic Business
Days of the date required to be funded by
it hereunder, (b) notified the Borrower or the Administrative Agent in writing that it
does not intend to comply with any of its funding obligations under this
Agreement, (c) otherwise failed to pay over to the Administrative
Agent any other amount required to be paid
by it hereunder within three Domestic
Business Days of the date when
due, unless the subject of a good-faith
dispute, or (d) become the
subject of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, or has had a receiver,
conservator, trustee or custodian appointed for it or consented to,
approved of or acquiesced in such proceeding
or appointment.’

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    Section
3.  Replacement of
Banks.  Article 2 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by
adding immediately after Section 2.17 thereof a new Section 2.18 that reads as
follows:

     

     ‘Section
2.18.  Replacement
of Banks.  If (i) any Bank
requests payment of, or the Borrower is otherwise required to pay to any Bank,
any amount pursuant to Section 8.03, or (ii) if any Bank becomes a Defaulting
Bank, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such
Bank and the Administrative Agent, require such Bank to assign and delegate,
without recourse, all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement
to an Assignee (which Assignee may be another Bank, if such other Bank agrees to
accept such assignment) that shall assume such obligations pursuant to an
Assignment and Assumption Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit H
hereto which shall be executed by such Assignee and (except as otherwise
provided in this Section 2.18) such transferor Bank; provided, that (A) the
Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative
Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (B) such
transferor Bank shall have received payment of an amount equal to the
outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and
all other amounts payable to it hereunder (in each case, if any), from the
Assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and
fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), which amounts shall be
the only amounts payable to such transferor Bank in respect of such assignment
and delegation, (C) any Bank being replaced pursuant to this Section 2.18
shall be deemed to have granted to the Administrative Agent the authority to act
as its attorney-in-fact solely for the purpose of executing such Assignment and
Assumption Agreement, and (D) in the case of any such assignment and
delegation resulting from a request or claim for payment under Section 8.03,
such assignment will result in a reduction in any payments due to such
transferor Bank on a dollar-for-dollar basis to the extent that such assignment
eliminates or reduces the amount that such transferor Bank is entitled to
receive under Section 8.03.  A Bank shall not be required to make any
such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by
such Bank or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such
assignment and delegation cease to apply.  With respect to a demand
for compensation from a Bank pursuant to Section 8.03(a), the Borrower’s rights
under this Section 2.18 shall be an alternative to the Borrower’s rights under
Section 8.04.  Upon execution and delivery by the Assignee and (except
as otherwise provided in this Section 2.18) the transferor Bank of the
Assignment and Assumption Agreement referred to above and payment by such
Assignee to such transferor Bank of the amount (if any) payable by such Assignee
pursuant to clause (B) above: (1) such Assignee shall be a Bank party
to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Bank with a
Commitment equal to such transferor Bank’s Commitment immediately prior to the
effectiveness of such assignment and delegation (or, if there is more than one
Assignee, the respective portion of such Commitment agreed to be assumed by each
such Assignee); provided, that if any

     

    
      
         

      

      
        2

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    Assignee
is the Borrower, a Subsidiary or a Consolidated Subsidiary of the Borrower, the
transferor Bank’s rights and obligations with respect to its Commitment may be
so assigned provided that such transferor Bank does not hold any Loans, and, so
long as such Assignee holds such Commitment, with respect to (I) any waiver,
amendment or modification of the Credit Agreement or (II) any instruction or
authorization given to the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement, such
Assignee shall be deemed to have approved or joined in such waiver, amendment or
modification, such request or such instruction or authorization if it has
otherwise been agreed or consented to, or joined in, by the Required Banks,
calculated for this purpose on a basis that disregards (for the avoidance of
doubt, in both the numerator and the denominator) the amount of such Commitment;
and (2) the transferor Bank shall be released from its future obligations
hereunder (but not from any obligation or liability arising prior to the
effectiveness of such assignment and delegation, nor, in the case of a
Defaulting Bank, from any obligation or liability arising in respect of the
matter(s) as a result of which such Bank is a Defaulting Bank).  Upon
the consummation of any such assignment and delegation, the transferor Bank, the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so
that, if required, a new Note is issued to the Assignee.  If the
Assignee is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a
state thereof, it shall, prior to the first date on which interest or fees are
payable hereunder for its account, deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent certification as to exemption from deduction or withholding
of any United States federal income taxes in accordance with Section 2.16. In
connection with any assignment pursuant to this Section 2.18, (I) the
Borrower shall cause to be paid to the Administrative Agent an administrative
fee for processing such assignment in the amount of $3,500, and
(II) notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, if the
transferor Bank does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly
completed Assignment and Assumption Agreement reflecting such assignment within
five Domestic Business Days of the date on which the Assignee executes and
delivers such Assignment and Assumption Agreement to the transferor Bank, then
such transferor Bank shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such
Assignment and Assumption Agreement.’

     

    Section
4.  Representations
of Borrower.  The Borrower represents and warrants that (i) the
representations and warranties of the Borrower set forth in Article 4 of the
Credit Agreement will be true on and as of the Amendment Effective Date,
provided that, for purposes of this Section 5, (A) with respect to Section
4.02(a), all references to balance sheets and financial statements as at and for
the fiscal year ended May 31, 2007 shall refer to the Borrower’s financial
statements as at and for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2008, (B) with respect to
Section 4.02(b), all references to balance sheets and financial statements shall
refer to the Borrower’s financial statements as of and for the three-month
period ended August 31, 2008 and references to the six-month period ended
November 30, 2007 shall refer to the three-month period ended August 31,

     

    
      
         

      

      
        3

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    2008, and
(C) with respect to Section 4.02(c), the reference to November 30, 2007 shall
refer to August 31, 2008.

     

    Section
5.  Governing
Law.  This Amendment shall be governed
by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New
York.

     

    Section
6.  Counterparts.  This
Amendment may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an
original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon
the same instrument.

     

    Section
7.  Effectiveness.  This
Amendment shall become effective as of the date hereof (the “Amendment Effective Date”)
when the Administrative Agent shall have received from each of the Borrower and
the Required Banks a counterpart hereof signed by such party or facsimile or
other written confirmation (in form satisfactory to the Administrative Agent)
that such party has signed a counterpart hereof.

     

    Section
8.  Continuing
Effectiveness of Credit Agreement as Amended.  From and after
the Amendment Effective Date, the Credit Agreement and this Amendment shall be
construed together as a single instrument, and the Credit Agreement, as amended
hereby, shall remain in full force and effect and is hereby ratified, approved
and confirmed all respects.

     

    Section
9.  Severability.  Any
provision of this Amendment that is prohibited or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such provision and such jurisdiction, be ineffective
to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the
remaining provisions of this Amendment or affecting the validity or
enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

     

    Section
10.  Headings.  The
various headings of this Amendment are inserted for convenience only and shall
not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Amendment or any provisions
hereof or of the Credit Agreement as amended hereby.

     

    Section
11.  Successors and
Assigns.  This Amendment shall be binding upon and shall inure
to the benefit of the parties hereto, the other Banks and the respective
successors and assigns of the foregoing.

    RECITALS

     

    A.           The
Company, the Subsidiary Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are
party to that certain Credit Agreement dated as of June 9, 2006, as amended
pursuant to Amendment No. 1 to Credit Agreement dated as of June 28, 2007,
Amendment No. 2 to Credit Agreement dated as of February 1, 2008, Amendment No.
3 to Credit Agreement dated as of May 30, 2008 and Amendment No. 4 ("Amendment No. 4") to
the Credit Agreement dated as of December 2, 2008 (the “Credit

terms used in this Fifth Amendment shall have the meanings ascribed to them by
the Credit Agreement.

     

    B.           The
Company has requested that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders further
amend the Credit Agreement to reflect certain changes thereto and to grant a
limited waiver with respect to the Credit Agreement.

     

    C.           The
Administrative Agent and the undersigned Lenders are willing to amend the Credit
Agreement and to grant a limited waiver on the terms and conditions set forth
below.

     

    Now,
therefore, in consideration of the mutual execution hereof and other good and
valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows:

     

    1.           Reduction of Aggregate
Commitments.  Notwithstanding the terms and provisions of
Amendment No. 4, the aggregate amount of the Lenders' Commitments shall be
reduced to $85,000,000 commencing on January 16, 2009 and to $80,000,000
commencing on July 1, 2009.  Accordingly, Schedule 2.01 of the Credit
Agreement is hereby amended and restated as set forth on Annex I
hereto.

     

    2.           Limited
Waiver.  Upon satisfaction of the conditions to effectiveness
set forth in paragraph 4 below, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
signatory hereto hereby waive the requirement that the Company comply with the
financial covenants set forth in Sections 6.09 and 6.12 of the Credit Agreement
for the fiscal period ending on or about December 31, 2008, provided such waiver
shall expire at 5 p.m. on January 15, 2009, at which time the terms and
provisions of Sections 6.09 and 6.12 of the Credit Agreement shall be effective
with the same force and effect under the Credit Agreement as if such waiver had
not been given.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    3.           Representations and
Warranties of the Company.  The Company represents and warrants
that:

     

    (a)           The
execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Fifth Amendment has
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and this Fifth Amendment
is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the
Company in accordance with its terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be
subject to (i) the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or similar law affecting creditors’ rights generally
and (ii) general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a
proceeding in equity or at law.

     

    (b)           Each
of the representations and warranties contained in the Credit Agreement and the
other Credit Documents is true and correct in all material respects on and as of
the date hereof as if made on the date hereof (except any such representation or
warranty that expressly relates to or is made expressly as of a specific earlier
date, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct
with respect to or as of such specific earlier date).

     

    (c)           After
giving effect to this Fifth Amendment, no Default has occurred and is
continuing.

     

    4.           Effective
Date.  This Fifth Amendment shall become effective upon receipt
by the Administrative Agent of (i) duly executed counterparts of this Fifth
Amendment from the Company, Select Comfort Retail Corporation and the Lenders,
(ii) the Reaffirmation of Guaranty in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A executed by
each of the Subsidiary Guarantors, and (iii) payment of all fees and
out-of-pocket costs and expenses of its counsel and the financial advisor
retained by its counsel invoiced through the date hereof.

     

    5.           Reference to and Effect Upon
the Credit Agreement.

     

    (a)           Except
as specifically amended above, the Credit Agreement and the other Credit
Documents shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and
confirmed.

     

    (b)           The
execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Fifth Amendment shall not operate
as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of the Administrative Agent or any
Lender under the Credit Agreement or any Credit Document, nor constitute a
waiver of any provision of the Credit Agreement or any Credit Document, except
as specifically set forth herein.  Upon the effectiveness of this
Fifth Amendment, each reference in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”,
“hereunder”, “hereof”, “herein” or words of similar import shall mean and be a
reference to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby.

     

    6.           Release of Claims and
Waiver.  Each of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries
hereby releases, remises, acquits and forever discharges each of the Lenders and
such Lender's employees, agents, representatives, consultants, attorneys,
fiduciaries, servants, officers, directors, partners, predecessors, successors
and assigns, subsidiary corporations, parent corporations, and related corporate
divisions (all of the foregoing hereinafter called the "Released Parties"),
from any and all actions and causes of action, judgments, executions, suits,
debts, claims, demands, liabilities, obligations, damages and expenses of any
and every character, known or unknown, direct and/or indirect, at law or in
equity, of whatsoever kind or nature, for or because of any matter or things
done, omitted or suffered to be done by any of the Released Parties prior to and
including the date of execution hereof, and in any way directly or indirectly
arising out of or in any way connected to this Fifth Amendment, the Collateral,
the Loans, the Credit Agreement, or the other Credit Documents (all of the
foregoing hereinafter called the "Released
Matters").  Each of the Company and each of its
Subsidiaries acknowledges that the agreements in this paragraph are
intended to be in full satisfaction of all or any alleged injuries or damages
arising in connection with the Released Matters. Each of the Company and each of
its Subsidiaries represents and warrants to the Lenders that it has not
purported to transfer, assign or otherwise convey any right, title or interest
of the Company in any Released Matter to any other person and that the foregoing
constitutes a full and complete release of all Released Matters.
