2.1 Asset Purchase Transaction. On the Closing Date, but subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, Seller shall sell, convey, transfer and assign the Acquired Assets to Buyer, free and clear of all Liens.

2.2 Liabilities Assumed and Excluded. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing, Buyer shall assume the Assumed Liabilities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer expressly does not assume, and does not agree to and shall not assume, any Excluded Liabilities. Seller shall promptly pay, discharge and perform in full all Excluded Liabilities when and as the same become due.

2.3 Purchase Price. The consideration for the Acquired Assets will be (a) $14,000,000, minus any Buyer Adjustment Amount (the “Purchase Price”) and (b) the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities. At the Closing, the Purchase Price, prior to adjustment on account of the Adjustment Amount per Section 2.4, shall be delivered by Buyer to Seller as follows: (a) $5,650,000 by wire transfer to an account specified by Greenberg Traurig, LLP, who will receive payment on behalf of Seller, (b) $1,650,000 (which is the sum of the Closing Adjustment Escrow Amount and the Indemnity Escrow Amount) to the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement and (c) $6,700,000 by wire transfer to FirstMerit in payment of the FirstMerit Loan. Buyer shall also deliver the Assignment and Assumption Agreement. The Adjustment Amount shall be paid in accordance with Section 2.4.

2.4 Post-Closing Adjustment.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date and, in any event not later than 90 days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller (i) the Closing Date Balance Sheet, (ii) the Working Capital Calculation, and (iii) the Adjustment Amount Calculation (such delivery, the “Post-Closing Delivery”).

(b) Seller shall have 30 days from the date Buyer makes the Post-Closing Delivery (such period, the “Dispute Period”) to notify Buyer, in writing, as to whether Seller agrees or disagrees with Buyer’s (i) preparation of the Closing Date Balance Sheet, (ii) Working Capital Calculation, and/or (iii) Adjustment Amount Calculation (such written notice, if any, the “Dispute Notice”). During the Dispute Period, Buyer shall timely provide copies of its working papers upon the request of Seller and its Representatives, and, where applicable, Buyer shall make commercially reasonable efforts to cause its accountants to provide copies of its working papers upon the request of Seller and its Representatives, in each case relating to the matters set forth in the Post-Closing Delivery.

(c) Seller may only object to Buyer’s (i) preparation of the Closing Date Balance Sheet, (ii) Working Capital Calculation and/or (iii) Adjustment Amount Calculation, by delivering a Dispute Notice to Buyer during the Dispute Period.

(d) If Seller fails to deliver a Dispute Notice to Buyer during the Dispute Period, (i) the Closing Date Balance Sheet as prepared by Buyer shall be deemed to have been correctly prepared, (ii) the Working Capital Calculation and Adjustment Amount Calculation prepared by Buyer shall each be deemed to be correct and complete, and (iii) the Closing Date Working Capital Calculation and the Adjustment Amount as so determined by Buyer shall be deemed final and correct and shall each be binding upon each of the parties hereto.

(e) If Seller delivers a Dispute Notice to Buyer during the Dispute Period, Seller and Buyer shall, for a period of 45 days from the date the Dispute Notice is received by Buyer (such period, the “Parties Resolution Period”), use their respective Best Efforts to resolve the items in dispute. Any items so resolved by the parties shall be deemed to be final and correct as so resolved and shall be binding upon each of the parties hereto.

(f) If Seller and Buyer are unable to resolve all of the items in dispute during the Parties Resolution Period, then either Buyer or Seller may give the other party written notice that such party intends to refer the items remaining in dispute to the parties’ respective independent accounting firms for resolution. Buyer and Seller shall each, within ten days after delivery of such notice and at their own expense, appoint (and notify the other of such appointment) an accounting firm of their choice (collectively, the “Parties Accountants”) and notify the other party of that choice. The Parties Accountants shall, for a period of 45 days from the date of the last notice of the choice of the Parties Accountants (such period, the “Parties Accountants Resolution Period”), attempt to reach mutual agreement on the items in dispute. In the event the Parties Accountants reach mutual agreement on the items in dispute within the Parties Accountants Resolution Period, such items so resolved by the Parties Accountants shall be final and binding upon the parties hereto and shall not be subject to judicial review or other Proceeding.

(g) If the Parties Accountants are unable to resolve all of the items in dispute during the Parties Accountants Resolution Period, then the Parties Accountants shall, within 15 days after the end of the Parties Accountants Resolution Period, jointly appoint a disinterested, nationally or regionally-recognized accounting firm to serve as the independent accounting firm to resolve such disputed items (the “Independent Accountants”). The Independent Accountants selected by the Parties Accountants shall be final and binding. Upon the selection of the Independent Accountants, Buyer or Seller shall refer the items remaining in dispute to the Independent Accountants, which referral shall be made in writing, copies of which shall concurrently be delivered to the parties hereto. The referring party shall furnish the Independent Accountants, at the time of such referral, with the Post-Closing Delivery and the Dispute Notice. The parties shall also furnish the Independent Accountants with such other information and documents as the Independent Accountants may reasonably request in order for them to resolve the items in dispute. Buyer and Seller shall also, within ten days of the date the items in dispute are referred to the Independent Accountants, provide the Independent Accountants with a written notice (a “Position Statement”) describing in reasonable detail their respective positions on the items in dispute (copies of which will concurrently be delivered to the other parties hereto). If any party fails to timely deliver its Position Statement to the Independent Accountants, the Independent Accountants shall resolve the items in dispute solely upon the basis of the information otherwise provided to them. The Independent Accountants shall resolve all disputed items in a written determination to be delivered to each of the parties hereto within 45 days after such matter is referred to them; provided, however, that any delay in delivering such determination shall not invalidate such determination or deprive the Independent Accountants of jurisdiction to resolve the items in dispute. The decision of the Independent Accountants as to the items in dispute shall be final and binding upon the parties hereto and shall not be subject to judicial review or other Proceeding. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants incurred in the resolution of any items in dispute shall be determined by the Independent Accountants and set forth in their report and shall be allocated and paid by Buyer and Seller, in inverse proportion to the extent they prevailed on the items in dispute.

(g) Within five days after the final determination of the Adjustment Amount (whether through failure of Seller to timely deliver a Dispute Notice, agreement of the parties, a determination of the Parties Accountants, or determination of the Independent Accountants), the Purchase Price will be adjusted as follows:

(i) if the Adjustment Amount results in a Buyer Adjustment Amount, Buyer, Seller and the Member shall deliver a joint written authorization to the Escrow Agent within two Business Days from the date on which the Adjustment Amount is finally determined, instructing the Escrow Agent to (A) pay to Buyer an amount equal to the Buyer Adjustment Amount (together with any interest earned on such amount), first, out of the Closing Adjustment Escrow Amount, and second, out of the Indemnity Escrow Amount to the extent (and only to the extent) the Closing Adjustment Escrow Amount is insufficient to cover the entire Buyer Adjustment Amount, and (B) after payment of the Buyer Adjust Amount to Buyer pursuant to the foregoing clause (A), pay the remaining portion of the Closing Adjustment Escrow Amount, if any, to Seller.

(ii) if the Adjustment Amount is a positive number, Buyer, Seller and the Member shall deliver a joint written authorization to the Escrow Agent within two Business Days from the date on which the Adjustment Amount is finally determined, instructing the Escrow Agent to pay to Seller the entire Closing Adjustment Escrow Amount. In no event shall Buyer be required to pay to the Seller any positive Adjustment Amount.

2.5 Allocation of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price, as adjusted, shall be allocated among the Acquired Assets. Buyer shall retain, and pay the expenses of, a valuation firm to perform within 60 days following the Closing an allocation of the Purchase Price among the Acquired Assets (the “Allocation”), and such Allocation shall be used by all of the parties hereto, subject to the consent of Seller and Member to the Allocation (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). If the parties cannot agree upon the Allocation, the dispute resolution provisions set forth in Section 2.4 shall apply. In the event the Neither Seller nor Buyer nor the Member shall take a position on any tax return (including, without limitation, IRS Form 8594, and any amendments thereto), before any Governmental Authority charged with the collection of any Tax, or in any Proceeding that is inconsistent with the Allocation (taking into account any subsequent amendments required by law) without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto. Seller, Buyer and Member shall make their respective IRS Forms 8594 (and any amendments thereto) filed or to be filed with the IRS available for inspection by the other party for the purpose of verifying compliance with this Section 2.5 and the Allocation.

To the extent reasonably practicable, the parties shall use their Best Efforts to effect the Closing through electronic means of communication. Subject to the provisions of Article 9, failure to consummate the purchase and sale provided for in this Agreement and at the place determined pursuant to this Section 2.6 will not result in the termination of this Agreement and will not relieve any party of any obligation under this Agreement.

Seller and the Member shall make, or have made, all federal, state, local and foreign filings with respect to income Taxes of Seller and the Member for the Business and the Acquired Assets for any Tax period (or portion thereof) ending on or before the Closing Date. All liabilities of Seller and the Member (and any other current or past Member of the Seller) with respect to income Taxes under federal, state, local and foreign income Tax laws attributable to the operations of the Business and the Acquired Assets through the Closing Date shall be borne by Seller and the Member, and any refunds or credits or rights to refunds or credits with respect thereto shall be the property of Seller and the Member.

(b) Other Pre-Closing Taxes. All Tax liabilities of Seller (other than income Taxes) attributable to the Business or the Acquired Assets for Tax periods (or portions thereof) ending on or prior to the Closing Date shall be borne by Seller.

(c) Post-Closing Taxes. All Taxes attributable to the Business or the Acquired Assets for Tax periods (or portions thereof) beginning after the Closing Date shall be the responsibility of Buyer, and any refunds or credits or rights to refunds or credits with respect thereto shall be Buyer’s.

(d) Straddle Periods. All real property Taxes, personal property Taxes and similar ad valorem obligations with respect to the Business or the Acquired Assets for a Tax period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date, whether such Taxes are payable to a Governmental Authority, a landlord or other third party, shall be apportioned between Buyer and Seller as of the Closing Date based upon, respectively, the number of calendar days in the portion of such Tax period ending on the Closing Date and the number of calendar days in the portion of such Tax period commencing after the Closing Date. If the Closing occurs before the Tax rate is fixed for the then current Tax period, the proration of the corresponding Taxes shall be on the basis of the Tax rate for the last preceding Tax period applied to the latest assessed valuation. Buyer shall be responsible for filing all Tax Returns relating to such Taxes with respect to the Business and the Acquired Assets required to be filed after the Closing Date. For any such Tax Return relating to a Tax period that begins on or prior to, and ends after, the Closing Date, Buyer shall provide such Tax Return to the Seller at least 30 days prior to the date on which such Tax Return is required to be filed (but in no event earlier than 30 days after the Closing Date), for Seller’s review and comment. Seller shall have ten days to review and comment on any such Tax Return, which comments Buyer shall take into consideration in its sole discretion. Buyer shall provide such Tax Returns to the Seller at least ten business days prior to the date on which any such Tax Return is required to be filed, for Seller’s review and comment. Seller shall have five business days to review and comment on any such Tax Return, which comments Buyer shall take into consideration in its sole discretion.

(e) Reimbursements. If either Seller (or an affiliate of Seller) or Buyer (or an affiliate of Buyer) pays any Taxes to be borne by the other party under this Section 10.5, the other party shall promptly reimburse Seller or Buyer, as applicable, for the Taxes paid. If, in preparing Tax Returns or payments after the Closing, it appears to Buyer that Seller will be asked to pay additional Taxes, Buyer shall so notify Seller, and provide Seller a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon any related Tax Returns prior to filing them and paying the Tax. If either party receives any refunds or credits which are the property of the other party under this Section 10.5, such party shall promptly pay the amount of such refunds or credits to the other party.

(f) Pre-Closing Tax Returns. All Tax Returns prepared and filed by Seller relating to Tax liabilities attributable to the Business or the Acquired Assets for Tax periods (or portions thereof) ending on or prior to the Closing Date shall be prepared and timely filed in a manner that is consistent with prior practice of Seller (including, without limitation, with respect to the jurisdictions in which such Tax Returns are filed). With respect to any such Tax Return that is due prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver drafts of such Tax Return to the Buyer no later than 15 days prior to the date (including extensions) on which such Tax Return is so filed.

(g) Prior to the Closing:

(i) Seller shall (A) reserve properly (and reflect such reserve in its books and records and financial statements), in accordance with the past practices of Seller and in the ordinary course of business, for all Taxes payable by Seller for which no Tax Return is due prior to the Closing Date, and (B) notify promptly Buyer of any United States federal, state, local or foreign suit, claim, action, investigation, proceeding or audit (collectively, “Actions”) pending against or with respect to Seller, including (without limitation) Tax liabilities and refund claims, and shall not settle or compromise any such Action without Buyer’s consent; and

(ii) Seller shall not, without the prior written consent of Buyer, make or revoke any Tax elections or, except as required by law or GAAP, change any accounting principles or practices used by Seller, or reverse any accruals with respect to Taxes of Seller, file any amended Tax Return, settle or compromise any Tax liability, waive any statutes of limitations with respect to Taxes or agree to any extension of time with respect to any Tax assessment or deficiency.

(h) Transfer Taxes and Conveyance Fees. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, all transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value-added, and other such Taxes, and all conveyance fees, recording charges and other fees and charges (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by Seller and the Member when due. Seller and the Member shall, at their expense, file all necessary Tax Returns with respect to such Taxes, fees and charges.

(i) Cooperation. The parties agree to cooperate with each other and to provide each other with all information and documentation reasonably necessary to permit the preparation and filing of all federal, state, local and foreign Tax Returns and Tax elections with respect to Seller, the Acquired Assets and the Business. Buyer shall make available to Seller and its representatives, on at least three days’ prior written notice, all records and materials reasonably required by them to pursue or contest any Tax matters and shall provide reasonable cooperation to Seller in such case, including having personnel of the Business provide reasonable assistance to Seller. Seller and the Member shall make available to Buyer and its representatives, on at least three days’ prior written notice, those records and materials reasonably required by them to prepare, pursue or contest any Tax matters arising after the Closing which have factual reference to the pre-Closing periods.

10.6 Further Assurances. The parties shall cooperate reasonably with each other and with their respective Representatives in connection with any steps required to be taken as part of their respective obligations under this Agreement, and shall (a) furnish (or cause to be furnished) upon request to each other such further information; (b) execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to each other, and file (or cause to be filed) where appropriate, such other documents (including, without limitation, foreign Intellectual Property Asset assignments); and (c) do (or cause to be done) such other acts and things, all as the other party may reasonably request for the purpose of carrying out the intent of this Agreement. Further, Seller shall promptly (and in all cases within ten days of receipt) transfer to Buyer (in the form received) any proceeds of accounts receivable that constitute any of the Acquired Assets.

10.7 Name Change. Contemporaneously with the Closing, Seller shall (and the Member shall cause Seller to) change its corporate name (and any and all fictitious, trade name or assumed name filings) so that they no longer include “Foot Petals” or any derivative thereof; and, after the Closing Seller and/or the Member shall not, directly or indirectly, use any such names, or any derivative thereof, in any trade or business.

10.8 Assignments of Leases.

(a) Buyer acknowledges that Seller is party to the following real property leases that may require the consent of the landlord to be assigned to Buyer: (i) the Commercial Lease Agreement dated March 20, 2007, as renewed on April 26, 2010, for office space located in New Jersey and (ii) the Office Building Lease dated June 8, 2007, for office space located in California (together, the “Assigned Leases”). The Parties agree that any required consents will not be obtained prior to the Closing and the Assigned Leases will be assigned to Buyer at the Closing in the absence of such consents. Following the Closing, Seller, Member and Buyer each agree to use their reasonable best efforts to obtain any required consents of the landlords to the assignment of the Assigned Leases. Until any required consents to assignment are obtained under Assigned Leases, Seller shall assist Buyer to (i) comply with the terms and conditions of, and perform its obligations under, such Assigned Leases, (ii) enforce any rights of Seller under such Assigned Leases.

(b) Buyer agrees to indemnify Seller for (i) any costs, fees or expenses incurred by Seller as a result of any breach of the Assigned Leases arising from the assignment of the Assigned Leases from Seller to Buyer at the Closing (and only breaches arising from such assignment); provided, however, that Buyer shall have no indemnification obligation hereunder if the fees, costs or expenses incurred are a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of either Seller or the Member or of the failure by Seller or Member to comply with the terms and conditions of, or to enforce its rights under, an Assigned Lease.

(c) Buyer hereby acknowledges that Margarita Floris has executed a personal guaranty under the Assigned Lease referenced in subsection (a)(i) above. Seller and Buyer agree to use their reasonable best efforts to obtain a release by the landlord releasing Ms. Floris from such guaranty. In the event the release of such guaranty is not obtained, Buyer agrees to indemnify Ms. Floris for any costs, fees or expenses incurred by her pursuant to such guaranty; provided, however, that Buyer shall have no indemnification obligation hereunder if the fees, costs or expenses incurred are a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of either Seller, the Member or Ms. Floris or of the failure of Seller or Member to comply with the terms and conditions of, or to enforce its rights under, an Assigned Lease.

(a) All covenants, agreements and obligations shall survive the Closing and expire in accordance with their respective terms.

(b) All representations and warranties set forth in Article 3 and Article 4 hereof shall survive until the expiration of 18 months following the Closing Date, other than (i) any representation or warranty made pursuant to Sections 3.1 (organization; capitalization), 3.2 (authorization), 3.3 (validity), 3.4 (noncontravention), 3.7(b) (title), 3.21 (brokers), which shall survive indefinitely and (ii) any representation or warranty made pursuant to Section 3.9 (taxes), which shall survive until three months after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations.

11.4 Basket and Cap. Seller and the Member shall not have any liability or obligation to indemnify or reimburse the Buyer Indemnified Persons under Section 11.1(a) (inaccuracy or breaches of representations and warranties), unless and until the aggregate amount of Damages incurred as a result thereof exceeds $100,000 (the “Seller’s Basket”), in which case the Buyer shall be entitled to recover any Damages in excess of the Seller’s Basket up to $1,650,000 (the “Cap Amount”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Seller’s Basket shall only apply to inaccuracies or breaches of representations and warranties and shall not apply to any other indemnification obligation of Seller under this Article 11. In addition, Seller and the Member shall not have any liability or obligation under this Article 11 to indemnify or reimburse the Buyer Indemnified Persons for an aggregate amount of Damages in excess of the Cap Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations in this Section 11.4 shall not apply to claims for fraud, any claim related to Taxes or any claim for breach of the representations and warranties identified in Section 11.3(b)(i).

11.5 Third-Party Claims.

(a) Promptly after receipt by a Person entitled to indemnity under Sections 11.1 or 11.2 (an “Indemnified Person”) of notice of the assertion of a Third-Party Claim against it, such Indemnified Person shall give notice to the Person obligated to indemnify under such section (an “Indemnifying Person”) of the assertion of such Third-Party Claim, provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person will not relieve the Indemnifying Person of any liability that it may have to any Indemnified Person, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Person demonstrates that the defense of such Third-Party Claim is prejudiced by the Indemnified Person’s failure to give such notice.

(b) If an Indemnified Person gives notice to the Indemnifying Person pursuant to Section 11.5(a) of the assertion of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third-Party Claim or, alternatively, it may assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim with counsel satisfactory to both parties (unless (i) the Indemnifying Person is also a Person against whom the Third-Party Claim is made and the Indemnified Person determines in good faith that joint representation would be inappropriate or (ii) the Indemnifying Person fails to provide reasonable assurance to the Indemnified Person of its financial capacity to defend such Third-Party Claim and provide indemnification with respect to such Third-Party

Claim). After notice from the Indemnifying Person to the Indemnified Person of its election to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person shall not, so long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the Indemnified Person under this Article 11 for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such Third-Party Claim, in each case subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Person in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim, other than reasonable costs of investigation. If the Indemnifying Person assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim, no compromise or settlement of such Third-Party Claim may be effected by the Indemnifying Person without the Indemnified Person’s consent unless (A) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Law or any violation of the rights of any Person; (B) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Person; and (C) the Indemnified Person shall have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such Third-Party Claims effected without its consent. If notice is given to an Indemnifying Person of the assertion of any Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Person does not, within ten days after the Indemnified Person’s notice is given, give notice to the Indemnified Person of its election to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person will be bound by any determination made in such Third-Party Claim or any compromise or settlement effected by the Indemnified Person.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Indemnified Person determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a Third-Party Claim may adversely affect it or its Affiliates other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Person may, by notice to the Indemnifying Person, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise or settle such Third-Party Claim, but the Indemnifying Person will not be bound by any determination of any Third-Party Claim so defended for the purposes of this Agreement or any compromise or settlement effected without its consent (which consent may not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed).

(d) With respect to any Third-Party Claim subject to indemnification under this Article 11 (i) both the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Person, as the case may be, shall keep the other Person fully informed of the status of such Third-Party Claim and any related Litigation at all stages thereof where such Person is not represented by its own counsel, and (ii) the parties shall (each at its own expense) render to each other such assistance as they may reasonably require of each other and to cooperate in good faith with each other in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of any Third-Party Claim.

(e) With respect to any Third-Party Claim subject to indemnification under this Article 11 the parties shall cooperate in such a manner as to preserve in full (to the extent possible) the confidentiality of all Confidential Information and the attorney-client and work-product privileges. In connection therewith, (i) each party will use its Best Efforts, in respect of any Third-Party Claim in which it has assumed or participated in the defense, to avoid production of Confidential Information (consistent with applicable Law and rules of procedure), and (ii) all communications between any party hereto and counsel responsible for or participating in the defense of any Third-Party Claim shall, to the extent possible, be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work-product privilege.

11.6 Other Claims. A claim for indemnification or reimbursement for any matter not involving a Third-Party Claim may be asserted by notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement, the Schedules, or any Ancillary Document to the contrary, in no event shall Seller, the Member or Buyer be liable for (a) any special, incidental, indirect or consequential damages that in each case are not reasonably foreseeable as of the date of this Agreement, or (b) any exemplary or punitive damages (other than exemplary or punitive damages awarded in connection with a claim of fraud or a Third-Party Claim for which a party is liable for indemnification therefor).

11.7 Escrow. Any payment that Seller and/or the Member are obligated to make to any Buyer Indemnified Party under this Article 11 shall be paid first, to the extent there are sufficient funds in the Escrow Fund, by release of funds to the Buyer Indemnified Persons from the Escrow Fund by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement and, second, to the extent there are insufficient funds in the Escrow Fund to pay any remaining sums due, the Seller and the Member, to the extent obligated under this Article 11, shall be required to pay all or such additional sums due and owing to the Buyer Indemnified Persons by wire transfer of immediately available funds within five business after the date of such notice). On the Expiration Date (as defined in the Escrow Agreement), the Escrow Agent shall release the remaining funds in the Escrow Fund (after making all deductions for fees and other amounts provided for in the Escrow Agreement) as provided in the Escrow Agreement, except that the Escrow Agent shall retain an amount (up to the total amount then held in the Escrow Fund) equal to the amount of claims for indemnification under this Article 11 asserted prior to such Expiration Date but not yet resolved. The amount of the funds in the Escrow Fund retained for such unresolved claims shall be released by the Escrow Agent (to the extent not utilized to pay the Buyer Indemnified Parties for any such claims resolved in their favor) upon their resolution in accordance with this Article 11 and the terms of the Escrow Agreement.

11.8 Procedures for Resolving Indemnification Claims.

(a) So long as the Escrow Agreement is in effect, all claims by a Buyer Indemnified Person under this Article 11 (other than claims brought under Section 2.4 of this Agreement, or claims against Seller or the Member resulting from a violation or alleged breach of Section 10.1, which claims may be made directly to the Member) must first be submitted to the Escrow Agent and, if disputed, resolved in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement.

(b) If any Pending Claim (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) involves an amount in excess of the funds then remaining available for payment of claims in the Escrow Fund, the entire Pending Claim, including the amount in excess of such remaining funds, shall be arbitrated by the same arbitrator or panel of arbitrators and in accordance with the same requirements set forth in Section 4 of the Escrow Agreement. In the event a claim for indemnification under this Article 11 by the Member or by the Buyer after the Escrow Agreement is no longer in effect, and such claim for indemnification is not resolved by the parties to such claim within 20 days following delivery of the claim of indemnification, such claim for indemnification shall be resolved, as between Buyer and the Member, in accordance with the same dispute resolution procedures as are set forth in Section 4 of the Escrow Agreement. Any such claim for indemnification shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration to be conducted by JAMS in accordance with the then-current JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, or, if applicable, the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, as applicable (the “Rules”). The arbitration shall take place in Columbus, Ohio before a single arbitrator unless the claim or claims exceeds $500,000, in which case the dispute shall be heard and determined by three arbitrators. In the event of a claim requiring a panel of three arbitrators, Buyer and Member shall each select one arbitrator and the two arbitrators so selected shall select a third arbitrator. The procedures and law applicable during the arbitration of a Pending Claim shall be both the Rules and the internal laws of the State of Ohio excluding, and without regard to, its or other jurisdiction’s rules concerning any conflict of laws. The arbitrator or panel of arbitrators, as the case may be, shall have the power to order injunctive relief of provide further equitable remedies. It is expressly agreed that the arbitrator or arbitrators in any such arbitration proceeding shall have no authority to award to any party any punitive, exemplary, treble or consequential damages of any type under any circumstances, regardless of whether such damages may be available under law, the parties hereby waiving their rights, if any, to recover such damages in connection with such arbitration proceeding. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent the party from seeking injunctive relief before any court having jurisdiction over the matter, and any claim by the Buyer against Seller or the Member for a breach, or threatened breach, of Section 10.1 shall not be limited to arbitration and Buyer may seek any and all remedies, whether in law or equity, as may be available to it.

11.9 Exclusive Remedy. The parties to this Agreement agree that, in the absence of fraud (in which event any affected party shall have all remedies available at law), the indemnification provisions in this Article 11 shall be the exclusive remedy of the parties with respect to any claims arising out of this Agreement; provided, however, that in the event of a breach, or threatened breach, by Seller or the Member of Section 10.1, Buyer shall not be limited to indemnification under this Article 11 and may seek any and all remedies, whether in law or equity, as may be available to it.

11.10 Indemnity Payment Characterization. All indemnification payments under this Agreement shall be deemed adjustments to the Purchase Price.

11.11 Concept of Indemnity. For the avoidance of doubt, the concept of “indemnity” as used in this Article 11 is intended to include, among others, claims between or among the parties to this Agreement and not involving any other Person, as well as third-party claims. For purposes of quantifying Damages under this Article 11 (but not for determining whether any representation or warranty has been breached or is inaccurate) any representation or warranty that is qualified in scope as to materiality shall be deemed to be made or given without such qualification.

ARTICLE 12
General Provisions

12.1 Expenses.

(a) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each party to this Agreement will bear its respective fees and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and performance of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including all fees and expenses of its Representatives.

(b) In any litigation or arbitration between the parties regarding this Agreement, the losing party shall pay to the prevailing party all reasonable expenses and court costs, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, incurred by the prevailing party. A party shall be considered the prevailing party if (i) it initiated the litigation and obtains substantially all of the relief or remedy it sought, either through a judgment or the losing party’s voluntary action, (ii) the other party withdraws its action without substantially obtaining the relief or remedy it sought, or (iii) it did not initiate the litigation and judgment is entered for either party, but without substantially granting the relief or remedy sought by the initiating party.

12.2 Confidentiality. From and after the Closing, Seller and the Member shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates, directors, managers, officers, agents and Representatives to, maintain in confidence all Confidential Information and shall not use any Confidential Information for any purpose or to the detriment of Buyer or the Business.

12.3 Public Announcements. All general notices, releases, statements and communications to employees, suppliers and customers of the Business and to the general public and the press relating to the transactions covered by this Agreement shall be made only at such times and in such manner as may be agreed upon by Buyer and Seller in writing; provided, however, that any party shall be entitled to make a public announcement of the transaction if, in the opinion of its legal counsel, such announcement is required in order to comply with any Law or any rule or regulation of any securities exchange or securities quotation system and such party shall, to the extent practicable, consult with the other parties with respect to such announcement and give reasonable prior written notice of its intent to issue such announcement.

12.5 Enforcement of Agreement. Seller and the Member acknowledge and agree that Buyer would be irreparably damaged if any of the provisions of Section 10.1 are not performed in accordance with their specific terms and that any default or breach of such sections by Seller and/or the Member could not be adequately compensated in all cases by monetary damages alone. Accordingly, in addition to any other right or remedy to which Buyer may be entitled, at law or in equity, it shall be entitled to enforce any provision of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance and to temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent defaults, breaches or threatened defaults or breaches of Section 10.1.

12.6 Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of the parties to this Agreement are cumulative and not alternative. Neither any failure nor any delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or any of the documents referred to in this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) no claim or right arising out of this Agreement or any of the documents referred to in this Agreement can be discharged by one party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless in writing signed by the other parties, (b) no waiver that may be given by a party will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given, and (c) no notice to or demand on one party will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of that party or of the right of the party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement.

12.7 Entire Agreement and Modification. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties or their respective Affiliates with respect to its subject matter (including the Letter of Intent and the Confidentiality Agreement, each of which is hereby terminated and no longer in force or effect) and constitutes (along with the Schedules, Exhibits and other documents delivered pursuant to this Agreement) a complete and exclusive statement of the terms of the agreement among the parties with respect to its subject matter. This Agreement may not be amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified except by a written agreement executed by the party to be charged with the amendment.

12.8 Schedules.

(a) The information in the Schedules constitutes (i) exceptions to particular representations, warranties, covenants and obligations of Seller and the Member as set forth in this Agreement, or (ii) descriptions or lists of assets and liabilities and other items referred to in this Agreement. If there is any inconsistency between the statements in this Agreement and those in the Schedules, the statements in the Schedules will control.

(b) The statements in the Schedules relate only to the provisions in the section of this Agreement to which they expressly relate and not to any other provision in this Agreement, except to the extent the application thereof to another section is reasonably apparent from the face of the disclosure or is otherwise provided in the Agreement or any other Ancillary Document.

12.9 Assignments, Successors and No Third-Party Rights. No party may assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other parties, except that Buyer may, without the prior written consent of the other parties assign its rights and/or obligations hereunder (in whole or in part) to R.G. Barry Corporation or to one or more subsidiaries or other Affiliates. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will apply to, be binding in all respects upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the parties. Nothing expressed or referred to in this Agreement will be construed to give any Person other than the parties to this Agreement any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement, except such rights as shall inure to a successor or permitted assignee pursuant to this Section 12.9 or as otherwise provided in Article 11 with respect to Indemnified Persons.

12.10 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect. Any provision of this Agreement held invalid or unenforceable only in part or degree will remain in full force and effect to the extent not held invalid or unenforceable.

12.11 Time of Essence. With regard to all dates and time periods set forth or referred to in this Agreement, time is of the essence.

12.12 Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Ohio without regard to conflicts-of-laws principles that would require the application of any other Law.

12.13 Execution of Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement.
