On April 26, 2011, Hardy Way LLC (“Hardy Way”), owner of the “Ed Hardy” brand and trademarks (“Brand”), acquired substantially all of the sublicensing rights to the Brand from its licensee, Nervous Tattoo, Inc. pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “APA”) by and among Hardy Way, Nervous Tattoo, Inc., a California corporation (“NT”) and Audigier Brand Management Group, LLC, a California limited liability company (“ABMG,” and together with NT, the “Sellers”). Immediately prior to the closing of the transactions contemplated by the APA, Iconix Brand Group, Inc. (the “Registrant” or “Iconix”) contributed $62 million to Hardy Way, thereby increasing Iconix’s ownership interests in Hardy Way from 50% to 85% of the outstanding membership interests. Pursuant to the APA, Hardy Way purchased approximately 40 sublicenses and other agreements related to the design, manufacture and sales of products exploiting the Brand as well as the right to enter into additional sublicense agreements in most categories. Hardy Way paid $55 million in cash for the assets described above. In addition, the Sellers may be entitled to receive up to an additional $7 million in cash pursuant to an earn-out based on royalties received by Hardy Way through June 30, 2013.
