AND
PERFORMANCE-BASED CASH AWARD AGREEMENT
UNDER THE
R.G. BARRY CORPORATION
AMENDED AND RESTATED 2005 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN
THIS PERFORMANCE-BASED RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AND PERFORMANCE-BASED CASH AWARD AGREEMENT (the
Agreement), is made to be effective as of the 26th day of September, 2011 (the Grant
Date) by and between R.G. Barry Corporation (the Company) and the individual whose
name appears at the end of this Agreement (the Participant) who is an employee of the
Company or one of its Subsidiaries, and evidences the grant by the Company of (i) a
Performance-Based Award of Restricted Stock Units (the RSU Award) and (ii)
Performance-Based Cash Awards (the Cash Awards and, together with the RSU Award, the
Awards) to the Participant and the Participants acceptance of the Awards in accordance
with the provisions of the R.G. Barry Corporation Amended and Restated 2005 Long-Term Incentive
Plan (the Plan). The Company and the Participant agree as follows:
1. Basis for the Awards. The RSU Award is granted to Participant pursuant to Sections
6.02 and 11.00 of the Plan and the Cash Awards are granted to Participant pursuant to Sections
10.00 and 11.00 of the Plan. The Awards, which are both performance-based, are granted for
services rendered to the Company by the Participant. All capitalized terms that are used in this
Agreement without definition shall have the definitions given to them in the Plan.
2. Award.
(a) Grant of RSU Award. The number of restricted stock units (Restricted Stock
Units) subject to the RSU Award is set forth on Annex A hereto, which shall be subject to the
terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and this Agreement including without limitation Sections
12.04 and 13.04 of the Plan.
(b) Grant of Cash Awards. The number of Cash Awards is set forth on Annex B hereto,
which shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and this Agreement
including without limitation 13.04 of the Plan.
3. Terms and Conditions.
(a) Settlement.
(i) Each Restricted Stock Unit, after having vested in accordance with Section 4, shall
entitle the Participant to receive one common share of the Company (a Share) upon the
applicable Settlement Date, as described herein.
(ii) Each of the Cash Awards, after having vested in accordance with Section 4, shall entitle
the Participant to a cash payment equal to the value of a Share on the applicable Settlement Date,
as described herein.
(b) No Voting or Dividend Rights. The Participant shall have no right to exercise any
voting rights or receive dividends or distributions with respect to the Cash Awards. Unless and
until the Restricted Stock Units are settled, the Participant shall have no right to exercise any
voting rights associated with the Shares underlying the Restricted Stock Units or receive any
dividends or other distributions otherwise payable with respect to the Shares underlying the
Restricted Stock Units.
4. Vesting of Award.
(a) Conditions to Vesting. Subject to Sections 6 and 7 of this Agreement, and
provided that the Participant remains an Employee from the Grant Date through the Vesting Date (as
defined in Section 4(b) below), the Committee shall determine the percentage of Award that may vest
and/or be forfeited based on the Companys diluted Annual Earnings Per Share (Annual EPS)
for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2012 (the 2012 Fiscal Year) in accordance with the
following chart:
Level of | Annual EPS for the | Percentage of Award | Percentage of Award | |||||||||
Performance | 2012 Fiscal Year | Vesting | Forfeited | |||||||||
Threshold |
* | One-third | Two-thirds | |||||||||
Target |
* | Two-thirds | One-third | |||||||||
Maximum |
* | 100 | % | 0 | % |
* | Omitted as confidential financial information, the disclosure of which would result in competitive harm to the registrant. |
(b) Determination of Vesting. Following the end of the 2012 Fiscal Year and in
accordance with Section 11.04 of the Plan, the Committee shall determine the extent of the
achievement by the Company of the Annual EPS for the 2012 Fiscal Year. Based on this
determination, and in accordance with the chart set forth in Section 4(a), the Committee shall
certify the number of Restricted Stock Units and the number of Cash Awards that vest. To the
extent that the Companys Annual EPS falls between two stated levels of performance, the Committee
shall determine the percentage of each of the Awards vesting (and the corresponding number of
Restricted Stock Units and Cash Awards) using linear interpolation, which determination shall be
final and binding on the Participant. The date on which the Committee makes the determinations
described in this Section 4(b) shall be the Vesting Date. No portion of either of the
Awards shall vest or be settled until the Committee has made such determination.

5. Settlement of Awards.
(a) Time of Settlement. Subject to Sections 6 and 7 and the Plan, including Section
12.05 thereof, and provided Participant remains an Employee on each Settlement Date, all vested
Restricted Stock Units (Vested RSUs) and vested Cash Awards (Vested Cash Awards
and, together with the Vested RSUs, the Vested Awards) shall be settled on the following
dates in the following manner (each, a Settlement Date):
(i) 33% of the Vested Awards shall be settled within 60 days of the Vesting Date (the
First Settlement Date);
(ii) an additional 33% of the Vested RSUs shall be settled within 60 days of the second
anniversary of the Vesting Date (the Second Settlement Date); and
(iii) the final 34% of the Vested RSUs shall be settled within 60 days of the third
anniversary of the Vesting Date (the Third Settlement Date).
(b) Form of Settlement.
(i) Vested RSUs. The Company shall issue one Share in settlement of each Vested RSU,
with any fractional Share settled in cash based on the closing price of a Share on the applicable
Settlement Date. The Company shall cause a Share certificate to be delivered to the Participant or
the Participants electronic account with respect to the Share being issued. The number of Shares
delivered shall be net of the number of Shares, if any, withheld pursuant to Section 11.
(ii) Vested Cash Awards. The Company shall make a cash payment, less applicable
withholdings, equal to the closing price of a Share in settlement of each vested Cash Award on the
applicable Settlement Date.
6. Termination of Employment. In the event of the Participants Termination of
Service (regardless of the reason for such Termination of Service), the unvested portion of each of
the Awards shall immediately terminate and be canceled, without any payment or consideration by the
Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of the Participants death or Disability: (a)
any portion of either of the Awards that is unvested at the date of death or Disability shall vest
in accordance with Section 4 as if Participant had remained an Employee through the Vesting Date
and shall be settled in the form described in Section 5 on the first Settlement Date following the
Vesting Date; and (b) any portion of the Award that has vested but not yet been settled shall be
settled in the form described in Section 5 on the next Settlement Date following the date of death
or Disability.
7. Effect of a Business Combination.
(a) If the Company consummates a Business Combination prior to the Vesting Date, the Award
shall be deemed to have vested at the target level of performance (i.e., as though the Annual EPS
for the 2012 Fiscal Year was * per Share) and the Participant shall be entitled to receive a
pro rata portion of each of the Awards determined by multiplying (i) the number of Shares or the
amount of cash, as the case may be, issuable upon settlement of each of the Award by (ii) a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of whole months between July 3, 2011 and the date of
consummation of the Business Combination, and the denominator of which is the number of whole
months in the 2012 Fiscal Year. Settlement of the portion of the Award vesting pursuant to this
Section 7(a) shall be made in a single lump sum within 30 days following the date of such Business
Combination.
* | Omitted as confidential
financial information, the disclosure on which would result in
competitive harm to the registrant. |
3
(b) If the Company consummates a Business Combination after the Vesting Date, the portion of
the Award that has vested but not been settled at the time of such Business Combination shall be
settled in the form described in Section 5 within 30 days following the date of such Business
Combination.
8. Compliance with Law. Notwithstanding any of the provisions hereof, the Company
will not be obligated to issue or transfer any Shares or make any payment of cash to the
Participant hereunder, if such issuance, transfer or payment shall constitute a violation by the
Participant or the Company of any provisions of any law or regulation of any governmental
authority. Any determination in this connection by the Committee shall be final, binding and
conclusive. The Company shall in no event be obliged to or to take any other affirmative action in
order to cause the issuance or transfer of stock pursuant thereto to comply with any law or
regulation of any governmental authority.
9. No right to Continued Employment. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan shall
confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any Subsidiary or
shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the Company or any Subsidiary, which are
hereby expressly reserved, to discharge the Participant at any time for any reason whatsoever, with
or without Cause.
10. Representations and Warranties of Participant. The Participant represents and
warrants to the Company that:
(a) Agrees to Terms of the Plan. The Participant has received a copy of the Plan and
has read and understands the terms of the Plan and this Agreement, and agrees to be bound by their
terms and conditions. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the terms and provisions
of the Plan and the provisions of this Agreement, the Plan shall govern and control. The
Participant acknowledges that there may be adverse tax consequences upon the settlement of the
Restricted Stock Units and the Cash Awards and that the Participant should consult a tax adviser
prior to such time.
(b) Cooperation. The Participant agrees to sign such additional documentation as may
reasonably be required from time to time by the Company.
11. Taxes and Share Withholding. At such time as the Participant has taxable income
in connection with the Awards (a Taxable Event), the Company or any Subsidiary shall have
the right to withhold from other amounts owed to the Participant, or to require the Participant to
remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state and local withholding tax
requirements resulting from such Taxable Event. In addition, the Committee, in its discretion, may
allow the Participant to elect to reimburse the Company for any withholding obligation with respect
to a Taxable Event relating to the Restricted Stock Units (but not the Cash Awards) (a) by having
Shares otherwise issuable pursuant to the Restricted Stock Award withheld by the Company having an
aggregate Fair Market Value equal to, but not in excess of an amount equal to, the minimum federal,
state and local income taxes and other amounts as may be required by law to be withheld by the
Company in connection with the related Taxable Event or (b) by delivering to the Company previously
acquired common shares of the Company that the Participant has owned for at least six months and
having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to, but not in excess of an amount equal to, the
minimum federal, state and local income taxes and other amounts as may be required by law to be
withheld by the Company in connection with the Taxable Event.
