Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On March 24, 2008, A.T. Cross Company, a Rhode Island corporation (the "Registrant"), entered into an amended and restated secured revolving credit facility (the "Credit Agreement") among the Registrant, A.T. Cross Limited (or "Cross UK", a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant), Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and letter of credit issuer, Bank of America, N.A. (London Branch) as UK lender, and other lenders from time to time.

The Credit Agreement is summarized in Item 2.03 of this report, which is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.

The Credit Agreement amends, restates and supercedes the Company's revolving credit agreement, dated as of December 21, 2005, among the Registrant, Cross UK, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and letter of credit issuer, Bank of America, N.A. (London Branch) as UK lender, and other lenders from time to time. The previous credit agreement was in an aggregate amount initially not to exceed $30 million, including up to $5 million equivalent in Eurocurrency loans to Cross UK denominated in pounds sterling or Euro and up to $25 million of other committed loans to the Registrant at any time. Following January 6, 2006, the aggregate amount that could be borrowed as committed loans under the facility was reduced to $15 million so that the aggregate availability under the facility at the time it was amended and restated was $20 million.

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

On March 24, 2008, the Registrant and Newco Eyewear, Inc., a Rhode Island corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant ("Newco"), completed a Plan of Merger with Native Eyewear, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation ("Native"), pursuant to which Native was merged with and into Newco, the surviving corporation.

Cross acquired Native for $17.8 million in cash, plus the assumption of approximately $1 million in bank debt. The acquisition was financed in part by the credit facility in place with the Bank of America as described in Items 1.01 and 2.03 of this report. A copy of the Agreement and Plan of Merger with Native is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference.

Native Eyewear, Inc., based in Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania, is a designer and marketer of a branded line of All Sports All Polarized^® sunglasses called "Native^®," which is distributed throughout the United States under the Native Eyewear brand.

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement or a Registrant

Under the Credit Agreement, the lenders have agreed to make loans to the Registrant ("Committed Loans"), and the UK lender has agreed to make loans to Cross Limited, during the term of the facility, in an aggregate amount not to exceed $35 million ("Lender's Commitment"), including a sublimit of $5 million equivalent in Eurocurrency loans to Cross UK denominated in pounds sterling or Euro ("Eurocurrency Loans") and a sublimit of $5 million for the issuance of Letters of Credit at any time. Subject to the limits on availability and the other terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, amounts borrowed under the facility may be borrowed, repaid without penalty and reborrowed by the Registrant and/or Cross UK. The facility matures, and amounts outstanding must be repaid, on March 31, 2011.

The interest rate for the Committed Loans will be, at the borrower's option, either (i) LIBOR (calculated as described in the Credit Agreement) plus an applicable margin, payable in arrears at the end of an interest period selected by the borrower, or (ii) the higher of the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points or Bank of America's prime rate, payable quarterly in arrears. The interest rate for any Eurocurrency Loans will be an interest settlement rate for deposits in pounds sterling or Euro, as the case may be, in each case plus an applicable margin, payable in arrears at the end of an interest period selected by the borrower. The "applicable margin" for LIBOR and Eurocurrency loans will be an amount between 1.75% and 2.50%, which amount will vary from time to time based upon the Registrant's consolidated leverage ratio (as calculated in accordance with the Credit Agreement).

Under the Credit Agreement, the Registrant made certain standard representations and warranties to the lenders and has agreed to comply with certain affirmative and negative covenants, including: (1) a restriction on the Registrant's ability to create or permit liens on its property, assets or revenues, other than certain permitted liens; (2) a restriction on the Registrant's ability to make investments in (including loans to or acquisitions of) other persons and entities except as permitted in the Credit Agreement; (3) a restriction on the Registrant's ability to incur or maintain debt outside of the Credit Agreement, other than existing debt and certain other debt permitted by the Credit Agreement; (4) restrictions on the Registrant's ability to enter into certain fundamental corporate transactions, including mergers, consolidations, dispositions of assets and similar transactions; (5) certain restrictions on the Registrant's ability to declare dividends or sell or redeem its stock; and (6) a restrictio n on the Registrant's ability to make capital expenditures over certain permitted amounts. Furthermore, the Registrant has agreed (a) to maintain a consolidated tangible net worth (as defined in the Credit Agreement) at any time of at least $60 million, increased by 50% of net income in each fiscal quarter ending after December 31, 2007 and by 50% of the proceeds of any permitted issuance of equity securities; (b) to maintain a consolidated debt service coverage ratio (in general, the ratio of consolidated EBITDA, as adjusted, to required debt service payments, each calculated in accordance with the Credit Agreement) at the end of any fiscal quarter of at least 1.25 to 1; and (c) to maintain a consolidated leverage ratio (in general, the ratio of debt to consolidated EBITDA, each calculated in accordance with the Credit Agreement) over any four quarter period of no greater than 2.5 to 1.

Amounts due under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain of the domestic subsidiaries of the Registrant. Amounts due are also secured by a pledge of the assets of the Registrant and certain of its domestic subsidiaries (including 100% of the equity held by the Registrant in certain of its domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the equity held by the Registrant in certain of its foreign subsidiaries).

The Registrant will pay certain fees associated with the facility to the lenders under the Credit Agreement. The obligations of the lenders to make any loans to the Registrant or to Cross UK are subject to the satisfaction of the applicable conditions specified in the Credit Agreement. The due date for the repayment of the obligations may be accelerated by the lenders upon the occurrence of an event of default.

ARTICLE II

EFFECT ON THE CAPITAL STOCK OF THE

CONSTITUENT CORPORATIONS; EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES

2.1 Effect on Capital Stock.

At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of any shares of capital stock of the Company or Subsidiary:

(a) Capital Stock of Subsidiary. Each issued and outstanding share of the common stock of the Subsidiary shall be converted into and become one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) Capital Stock of the Company.

(i) Each share of Company Common Stock (other than any Treasury Stock and other than Dissent Shares) outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time by virtue of the Merger and without any act on the part of the holder thereof, shall be converted into a right to receive, upon surrender of the Certificate representing such share in accordance with Section 2.2, cash equal to the Per Share Amount less the Per Share Escrow Amount and the right to receive cash equal to the Per Share Escrow Amount subject to and as provided in this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. Prior to the payment pursuant to this Section 2.1(b), the Purchaser shall deposit the Escrow Amount pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(ii) below. As of the Effective Time, all such shares of Company Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of record of a certificate representing any such shares of Company Common Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive (A) the Per Share Amount, without interest, less the Per Share Escrow Amount and any required withholding taxes, upon surrender of such Certificate in accordance with Section 2.2, and (B) the Per Share Escrow Amount, as provided in, and subject to, the provisions of 2.1(b)(ii)).

(ii) At the Closing, the Escrow Amount shall be placed in escrow for any adjustment to the Merger Consideration pursuant to Article IX hereof. The Escrow Amount shall be held in escrow by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof and of the Escrow Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit C (the "Escrow Agreement").

(c) Appraisal Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Company Common Stock that are outstanding immediately prior to the

3

Effective Time and that are held by any person who is entitled to dissent from and properly dissents from this Agreement pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, Subchapter D of Chapter 15 of the PBCL (together with other provisions of the PBCL referenced therein, the "Appraisal Statute"), to the extent applicable ("Dissent Shares"), shall not be converted into a right to receive any Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(b), but rather the holders of Dissent Shares shall be entitled to the right to receive payment of the fair cash value of such Dissent Shares in accordance with the Appraisal Statute; provided, however, that if any such holder shall fail to perfect or otherwise shall waive, withdraw or lose the right to receive payment of the fair cash value under the Appraisal Statute, then the right of such holder to be paid the fair cash value of such holder's Dissent Shares pursuant to the Appraisal Statute shall cease and such Dissent Shares shall be deemed to ha ve been converted as of the Effective Time into, and to have become exchangeable solely for, the right to receive the Merger Consideration, as provided in Section 2.1(b). The Company shall give prompt notice to Purchaser of any objections or demands received by the Company for appraisal of Company Common Stock pursuant to the Appraisal Statute. Purchaser shall have the right to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such objections or demands in accordance with the PBCL and shall be responsible for payment for the Dissent Shares and all costs related thereto. Except as otherwise required by law or judicial order, neither the Company, nor the Surviving Corporation shall, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such objections or demands, or agree to do any of the foregoing.

2.2 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Paying Agent. At the Effective Time, Semanoff Ormsby Greenberg & Torchia, LLC shall act as the paying agent (the "Paying Agent") for the payment of the Per Share Amount upon surrender of Certificates in accordance with the Paying Agent Agreement attached to this Agreement as Exhibit E (the "Paying Agent Agreement"). The Surviving Corporation shall, and Purchaser shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, provide to the Paying Agent as of the Effective Time an amount equal to the Merger Consideration less the Escrow Amount (such cash being hereinafter referred to as the "Exchange Fund"). The fees and expenses of the Paying Agent shall be deemed for all purposes to be Transaction Expenses, and all Transaction Expenses shall be paid from the Exchange Fund.

(b) Exchange Procedure. On the date hereof, the Company shall mail to each holder of record of Company Common Stock, (i) the Letter of Transmittal and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the Merger Consideration to which the holder of such Certificate is entitled pursuant to Section 2.1(b). Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancellation to the Paying Agent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed, and such other documents as may reasonably be required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (A) cash in an amount equal to the product of (I) the number of shares of Company Common Stock, and (II) the Per Share Amount, less the Per Share Escrow Amount and any required withholding taxes, and (B) the right to receive, subject to and in accordance with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, cash in an amount equal to the product of (I) the number of shar es of Company Common Stock, and (II) the Per Share Escrow Amount, and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. In the event

4

of a transfer of ownership of Company Common Stock that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, payment may be made to a person other than the person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is registered, if such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the payment to a person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or establish to the satisfaction of Purchaser that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. No interest shall be paid or shall accrue on the cash payable upon surrender of any Certificate.

(c) No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock; Transfer Books. The Per Share Amount (including any Per Share Escrow Amount payable pursuant to the Escrow Agreement and this Agreement) paid in accordance with the terms of this Article II, the Paying Agent Agreement and the Escrow Agreement upon or after conversion of any shares of Company Common Stock shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Common Stock, and after the Effective Time there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(d) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including any interest or other income received by the Paying Agent in respect thereof that has not previously been distributed pursuant to Section 2.2(e)) that remains undistributed to the former holders of Company Common Stock for fourteen (14) months after the Effective Time shall, after payment of any remaining unpaid Transaction Expenses, be delivered to the Surviving Corporation, upon demand, and any former holder of Company Common Stock who has not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation for payment of such holder's claim for the Per Share Amount. The Surviving Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to locate any Stockholders who have not surrendered their Certificates as of such time and notify the Stockholder Representative in writing of the Stockholders who have not surrendered their Certificates.

(e) Investment of Exchange Fund. The Paying Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund in an interest-bearing account as more expressly described in the Paying Agent Agreement. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be payable to the Surviving Corporation on demand.

(f) Withholding Rights. Purchaser, Subsidiary or the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause the Paying Agent to deduct and withhold, from the consideration otherwise payable to any holder of Company Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement, such amounts as may be required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or under any provision of state, local or foreign tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld by Purchaser, Subsidiary or the Surviving Corporation and remitted to the appropriate taxing authority in a timely manner, such deducted and withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the shares of Company Common Stock in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Purchaser, Subsidiary or the Surviving Corporation.

5

(g) Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit, in form and substance satisfactory to the Paying Agent, of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Paying Agent will pay, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Per Share Amount to be paid in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Certificate, as contemplated by this Agreement.

2.3 Allocation of Merger Consideration.

The parties hereto agree that the Merger shall, for federal, state and local tax purposes, be treated as an acquisition of the Company's assets by the Surviving Corporation. The Merger Consideration payable hereunder, as allocated in accordance with the requirements of Section 1060 of the Code, shall be as set forth on Schedule 2.3. Each of the Company, on the one hand, and the Purchaser and the Surviving Corporation, on the other hand, shall (a) prepare and file, and cause its Stockholders and Affiliates to prepare and file, its income tax returns on a basis consistent with such allocation and (b) take no position, and cause its Affiliates to take no position, inconsistent with the allocation on any applicable tax return or in any proceeding before any taxing authority or otherwise, unless otherwise required by Law. The Company, the Purchaser and the Surviving Corporation shall cooperate in the filing of any forms required to be filed by and with any taxing authority (including IRS Form 8594) w ith respect to such allocation, including any amendments to such forms required with respect to any adjustment to the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Agreement. The Company's regular accountant as of the Closing Date shall prepare and file the Company's income tax returns for all periods through the Effective Time. The Purchaser shall cause the Surviving Corporation to provide such information as reasonably requested by the Stockholder Representative after Closing for the purposes of preparing and filing such Tax Returns.

The indemnification set forth in this Section 9.1(a) is sometimes referred to herein as indemnification by the Company.

(b) The Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify and hold the Company and the Stockholders (collectively, the "Company Indemnified Parties") harmless from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, taxes, penalties, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees (collectively "Losses"), suffered, incurred or sustained by the Company Indemnified Parties or to which any of them becomes subject based on, arising out of, or otherwise in respect of:

If the indemnifying party elects not to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against hereunder, fails to notify the indemnified party of its election as herein provided or contests its obligation to indemnify the indemnified party for such Losses under this Agree ment, the indemnified party may defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with such Claim.

(c) Other Claims. The party who asserts a claim for indemnification other than a Claim shall provide in the notice to the indemnifying party the nature and amount of the Losses asserted. If the indemnifying party, within thirty (30) days after the indemnified party's notice, shall not give written notice to the indemnified party announcing its intention to contest such assertion of the Loss, such assertion by the indemnified party shall be deemed accepted and the amount of the Loss shall be deemed established. If, however, the indemnifying party contests the assertion of the Loss, within the thirty (30) day period, the indemnified party shall have the right to bring suit to resolve the contested assertion in accordance with Section 10.7. The indemnified party and indemnifying party may agree in writing, at any time, as to the existence and the amount of the Loss, and upon execution of such agreement the Loss will be deemed established.

(d) Payments. Except as otherwise provided in the Escrow Agreement, payments of any Loss shall be made to the Person entitled thereto by wire transfer to an account designated by such Person within thirty (30) days following the establishment of the Loss. All payments for Losses due to a Purchaser Indemnified Party shall be made solely from the Escrow Amount.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

A.T. CROSS COMPANY ACQUIRES NATIVE EYEWEAR INC., THE ORIGINAL BRAND OF ALL SPORTS ALL POLARIZED EYEWEAR^®

-- All-Cash Purchase Expected to be Immediately Accretive --

-- Diversifies Company's Rapidly Growing Sport-Optical Business --

Lincoln, RI - March 24, 2008 - A.T. Cross Company (AMEX: ATX) today announced that it has closed an all cash transaction to purchase Native Eyewear, Inc., a leading supplier of high-quality, branded, sport performance sunglasses and goggles. Native Eyewear, headquartered in Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania, is a designer and marketer of a branded line of All Sports All Polarized^® sport performance sunglasses and goggles called "Native^®," which are distributed throughout the United States under the Native Eyewear brand. Native's products are distributed through a wide range of specialty accounts, including highly respected outdoor retailers such as REI and Eastern Mountain Sports, as well as through L.L. Bean, Paragon Sports and Sports Chalet, to name a few. Native's eyewear products range in retail price points from $100 to $150.

Native will be operated as part of A.T. Cross' Optical Group Segment, which is currently comprised of the highly successful premium priced polarized Costa Del Mar brand, which Cross acquired in 2003. At that time, Costa had revenues of $11 million; in 2007, Costa's revenues had grown to $37 million. The acquisition of Native demonstrates the continued execution by A.T. Cross of its stated strategies, one of which is to acquire and operate multiple authentic sport performance sunglass brands and to manage each brand within the sports category where the brand has roots. Costa Del Mar's roots and authenticity are in the marine sports category; particularly salt and fresh water fishing, and it is now one of the most successful performance sunglass brands in this category. Native's roots are in the outdoor and mountain sports categories where it has been very successful in establishing an important niche.

Native was founded by Mr. Jason Wildman in 1998. Mr. Wildman developed the Native brand and its performance designed polarized sunglasses. The Native brand has developed a tremendously loyal customer base in its ten year history. Native's technologies, integrated into its frames and lenses, have been firsts in industry developments. Recently, Native introduced its first line of Interchangeable Polarized Snow Goggles, which are set to hit the retail stores in September of this year.

A. T. Cross purchased Native Eyewear for total consideration of $17.8 million in cash and the assumption of approximately $1 million of short-term debt. In 2007, Native had revenues of approximately $11 million. Additionally, Cross commented that the deal was expected to be immediately accretive to earnings per share and that, based on current business trends and including expected financing and closing costs, the deal would likely add approximately $0.07 earnings per share, after interest costs, for the full year 2009.

On March 24, 2008, A.T. Cross Company also entered into an amended secured credit facility which provides for borrowings of up to $35 million and expires in 2011.

Chas MacDonald, President of the Cross Optical Group and Costa Del Mar commented, "We are extremely pleased to add the Native brand and its very talented team to our Optical Segment. With a strong presence in the outdoor and mountain sports we believe this new partnership will allow the brand to grow in a dramatic fashion, similar to the exciting growth the Costa Del Mar brand has experienced since we acquired it in 2003. We are another strong step closer to our strategic goal of building a performance optical business that addresses the many categories of sport. Native's combination of strong distribution, proprietary technology, and attractive price points, coupled with its lifestyle marketing philosophy make it a seamless fit with our brand-building and business development strategy."

Jason Wildman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Native Eyewear commented, "We are very pleased to join the A.T. Cross organization. We believe that there is an excellent opportunity to expand our distribution and grow our brand and that the Cross organization will help us achieve those goals. The success they have had with Costa Del Mar shows us that they have a clear path to growth and the expertise necessary to fulfill our potential in the market."

Dave Whalen, President and Chief Executive Officer of A.T. Cross concluded, "We continue to execute against our stated strategies. As we incorporate Native into our family of brands and products, we believe that there is a great opportunity to leverage our operations and their market presence to create another strong business under the Cross umbrella. We believe that we have broadened our opportunity to create value for our shareholders and are energized to demonstrate the strength of the financial and operational platform we have built."

A.T. Cross will host a conference call at 8:30 a.m. ET on March 25, 2008. Parties interested in participating in the conference call may dial-in at (888) 254-3563, while international callers may dial-in at (913) 981-5549.
