Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 18, 2009, Design Within Reach, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a First Amendment to Loan, Guaranty and Security Agreement dated as of March 18, 2009 between the Company and Wells Fargo Retail Finance, LLC, as Agent (“Wells Fargo”) (the “First Amendment”). The First Amendment amends the Loan, Guaranty and Security Agreement dated as of February 2, 2007 by and among the Company, the Lenders party thereto and Wells Fargo, as Agent (the “Credit Agreement”). In connection with the First Amendment, the Company also entered into a Securities Account Availability Agreement with Wells Fargo dated as of March 18, 2009.

Pursuant to the terms of the First Amendment and the Securities Account Availability Agreement, Wells Fargo increased the amount of advances otherwise available to the Company by $1.0 million in exchange for the Company’s granting Wells Fargo collateral rights to certain accounts of the Company held at U.S. Bank National Association. The amount on deposit in such accounts is approximately $4.7 million. From such accounts, Wells Fargo will permit the Company to withdraw amounts in excess of $2.0 million so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred. In connection with the parties’ entering into the First Amendment and the Securities Account Availability Agreement, Wells Fargo also rescinded its decision to require additional discretionary reserves of $1.5 million.

The above summary of the First Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the First Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein. Capitalized terms not defined herein have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement, as amended.
