Frederick's of Hollywood Closes $7 Million Term Loan

"We are pleased to announce the closing of this new $7 million term loan, which caps a multi-step process to recapitalize the Company in 2010. As a result of these efforts, we have effectively established a solid foundation from which to further implement our strategy to grow and expand Frederick's of Hollywood into a global lifestyle brand," stated Thomas Lynch, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "We are building significant momentum through our turnaround strategy and are on the path towards long-term revenue and net income growth as well as increasing shareholder equity."

One-half of the principal amount and accrued interest of the term loan matures on each of July 30, 2013 and July 30, 2014. The term loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 9% payable quarterly in arrears, and an additional 6% in payment-in-kind interest that accrues and compounds annually. The term loan is secured by a first priority security interest in the Company's intellectual property and a second priority security interest in substantially all of the Company's other assets.
