 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Kellwood Holding Corp., a Delaware corporation, (the “Maker”) hereby
covenants and promises to pay to Sun Kellwood Finance, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Payee”) the principal amount of TWO HUNDRED TWENTY FIVE MILLION DOLLARS ($225,000,000). 

1. Interest. 
 (a) Interest Accrual. Interest shall accrue on a daily basis at a rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum (calculated on the basis of the number of days in the applicable Fiscal Year) on the
unpaid principal balance of this Note then outstanding; provided, however, that, if the principal amount of this Note shall not be paid on the Maturity Date (as defined in Section 2(a)), interest shall accrue on a daily
basis during the period commencing on the Maturity Date and ending on the date this Note is paid in full at a rate of seventeen percent (17%) per annum (calculated on the basis of the number of days in the applicable Fiscal Year) on the unpaid
principal balance of this Note then outstanding. 
 (b) PIK Interest; Capitalization of Interest. All accrued interest
which is not paid in cash on or before an Interest Payment Date in such Fiscal Year (the “Capitalization Date”) shall be deemed to be paid in kind and added to the principal amount outstanding hereunder, in each case, as of the
Capitalization Date. It is understood and agreed that all accrued interest shall be deemed to be interest paid in kind, unless the Maker notifies the Payee of its election otherwise. 

2. Principal. 
 (a) Maturity Date. On October 15, 2011 (the “Maturity Date”), the Maker shall pay the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note then outstanding to the Payee,

replacement notes shall return such notes to be replaced to the Maker, in each case marked “cancelled”, or deliver to the Maker a lost note indemnity in form and substance satisfactory to the Maker. The replacement and cancellation of
notes pursuant to this Section 2(d) shall in no way be a novation of the Indebtedness evidenced by the notes being replaced and cancelled nor shall the security interests granted pursuant to any Subordinated Loan Document be released,
terminated or otherwise impaired by such replacement and cancellation. 
 (e) Application of Principal Payments and
Reductions. All payments and prepayments of principal on this Note and all principal reductions effected in accordance with the terms of this Note shall be applied first, to the unpaid principal balance of this Note then outstanding

The definitions of terms herein shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words
“include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation,” whether or not so expressly stated in each such instance and the term “or” has, except where
otherwise indicated, the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or.” The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.” Unless the context requires otherwise,
(a) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document herein shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject
to any restrictions on such amendments, supplements or modifications set forth herein), (b) any reference herein to any Person shall be 

  
 9 

 
construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns, (c) the words “herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder,” and words of similar import, shall be

amount allowed under the applicable usury laws as now or hereafter construed by the courts having jurisdiction over such matters. If the maturity of this Note is accelerated by reason of an election by the holder hereof resulting from an Event of
Default, voluntary prepayment by the Maker or otherwise, then earned interest may never include more than the maximum amount permitted by law, computed from the date hereof until payment, and any interest in excess of the maximum amount permitted by
law shall be canceled automatically and, if theretofore paid, shall at the option of the holder hereof either be rebated to the Maker or credited on the principal amount of this Note, or if this Note has been paid, then the excess shall be rebated

principal balance of this Note remaining unpaid from time to time. If such interest does exceed the maximum legal rate, it shall be deemed a mistake and such excess shall be canceled automatically and, if theretofore paid, rebated to the Maker or
