SECTION 1 – REGISTRANT’S BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS

ITEM 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On June 21, 2006, Parlux Fragrances, Inc. (the “Company”) closed on the sale of certain real property in Sunrise, Florida to K/H - Sunrise, LLC, an unrelated Missouri limited liability company, for $15 million, less selling costs. The property, which was purchased on December 29, 2005, and was to be used as the Company’s corporate headquarters and distribution center, included approximately 15 acres of land and a 150,000 square foot distribution center, with existing office space of 15,000 square feet.

As a result of various factors including the Company’s continuing growth, the increase in trucking costs, resulting primarily from the increase in fuel prices and South Florida’s susceptibility to major storms, management and the Company’s Board of Directors determined that it would be more cost effective and prudent to relocate a major part of its warehousing and distribution activities to the New Jersey area, close to where the Company’s products are filled and packaged. Accordingly, on April 17, 2006, the Company entered into a five-year lease, commencing August 1, 2006, for approximately 200,000 square feet of warehouse space in Keasbey, New Jersey, to also serve as a backup information technology site if the current Fort Lauderdale, Florida location were to encounter unplanned disruptions.

WITNESSETH:

ARTICLE 1.

PURCHASE AND SALE

1.1.

Agreement of Purchase and Sale.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, Seller agrees to sell and convey and Purchaser agrees to purchase the following:

(a)

The parcel of real property located in the City of Sunrise, Broward County, Florida legally described on Exhibit “A” hereto attached, said parcel being improved with a warehouse building having an address of 13700 N.W. 2nd Street, Sunrise, Florida, together with all and singular the rights and appurtenances pertaining to said parcel, including all right, title and interest of Seller (if any) in and to adjacent streets, alley or rights of way (the property described in this clause (a) of this Section 1.1 being hereinafter referred to as the “Land”);

(b)

the building, structures, fixtures and other improvements on the Land, including specifically, without limitation, the certain building referred to in clause (a) above (the property described in this clause (b) of this Section 1.1 being herein referred to collectively as the “Improvements”, and the Land and the Improvements being hereinafter sometimes collectively referred to as the “Real Property”);

(c)

all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to any tangible personal property owned by Seller and located upon the Land or within the Improvements, including specifically, without limitation, the work stations, storage racks and warehouse pick line now installed in the building, but excluding any inventory of Seller, (the property described in clause (c) of this Section 1.1, other than the excluded items, being herein referred to collectively as the “Tangible Personal Property”).

1.2.

Property Defined. The Land, the Improvements and the Tangible Personal Property are hereinafter sometimes referred to collectively as the “Property.”

1.3.

Permitted Exceptions. The Property shall be conveyed subject to the matters which are, or are deemed to be, Permitted Exceptions pursuant to Article 2 hereof (hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Permitted Exceptions”).

1.4.

Purchase Price. Seller is to sell and Purchaser is to purchase the Property for an aggregate purchase price of FIFTEEN MILLION AND NO/100 ($15,000,000.00) DOLLARS (the “Purchase Price”).

1.5.

Payment of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price, as increased or decreased by prorations and adjustments as herein provided, shall be paid by Purchaser assuming the existing mortgage on the Property as provided in Section 1.6 and paying the balance of the Purchase in cash at closing, receiving credit against the cash for (a) the payment of Twenty-Five Thousand ($25,000.00) Dollars made by Purchaser to Seller pursuant to the letter of intent dated May 5, 2006 executed by the parties, and (b) the Earnest Money Deposit by Purchaser pursuant to Section 1.7, to be paid to Seller at closing by Escrow Agent. The cash due from Purchaser at closing shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds to Escrow Agent who shall then wire such funds to Seller pursuant to written instruction from Seller.

1.6.

Assumption of GE Mortgage. Purchaser shall assume the existing mortgage encumbering the Property given by Seller in favor of GE Commercial Finance Business Property Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“GE”) in the remaining principal balance at closing in the approximate amount of $12,590,000.00. The




mortgage is hereinafter referred to as the “GE Mortgage”. Purchaser shall promptly make application to GE for the assumption of the GE Mortgage, including the release of liability of Seller thereon, and shall pay all cost of such assumption including but not limited to the assumption fee charged by the holder of the GE Mortgage and any documentary stamps and intangible tax payable on the document of assumption. Purchaser shall execute the document of assumption and all related documents required by the holder of the GE Mortgage in such form and content as shall be reasonably required by said holder.

Purchaser acknowledges that it has received a copy of the recorded GE Mortgage and the Promissory Note which it secures and acknowledges that the consent of the holder of the Mortgage is required for the transfer of the Property to Purchaser and the assumption by Purchaser of the Mortgage. Purchaser shall use best efforts to obtain such consent to the transfer of the Property and assumption of the Mortgage with release of Seller’s liability on the Mortgage and the indebtedness it secures, and Seller shall extend reasonable cooperation for that purpose.

If the holder of the GE Mortgage shall fail to consent in writing to the transfer of the property to Purchaser and release of Seller on or before June 14, 2006, or if purchaser shall elect to proceed to close the purchase of the Property on an all cash basis providing the amount required to close from other sources provided or engaged by Purchaser, then notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the sale and purchase of the Property shall proceed on an all cash basis with the GE Mortgage being satisfied from closing proceeds and Purchaser paying all costs of its financing and the Prepayment Fee required under the terms of the GE Mortgage and the Note it secures for the payment and satisfaction of that Mortgage and other costs incident to any such financing and the satisfaction of the GE Mortgage. In such event, the provisions of Section 1.5 shall be deemed amended to eliminate the assumption of the GE Mortgage and to provide for th e Purchase Price, as increased and decreased by prorations and adjustments, to be paid in cash at closing with credit for the payment made by Purchaser under the letter of intent therein referenced and the Earnest Money deposit.

1.7.

Earnest Money. Simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Purchaser, Purchaser is depositing in good funds with Escrow Agent Two Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand and No/100 ($225,000.00) Dollars (the “Earnest Money”).

Any item contained in the Title Commitment or any matter shown on the Survey to which Purchaser does not object on or before the Title Objection Deadline shall be deemed a Permitted Exception. In the event Purchaser shall notify Seller of objections to title or to matters shown on the Survey on or before the Title Objection Deadline, Seller shall use reasonable diligence to attempt to cure such objections, and shall have until the thirtieth (30th ) day after receipt of notice from Purchaser of Title Objection to do so and, if required, the Closing Date hereinafter provided shall be extended to the end of said thirty (30) day period. Except for the satisfaction or removal of liens which may be satisfied by payment of liquidated amounts, Seller shall not be obligated to expend more than $20,000.00 in the aggregate, including reasonable attorney’s fees, nor to initiate any actions in the attempt to cure such objections.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Seller shall be obligated at Closing to fully discharge or bond off all mortgages of Seller and all monetary liens against the Property or any part thereof, (except the GE Mortgage, if assumed by Purchaser), regardless of whether Purchaser objects to same, and Closing proceeds may be so applied.

It shall be a condition to Purchaser’s obligation to close this transaction that title to the Real Property conveyed and transferred to Purchaser shall be such  title to Real Property as will enable the Title Company to issue to Purchaser an ALTA Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance (the “Title Policy”) covering the Real Property, in the full amount of the Purchase Price, subject to the following matters, which shall be deemed to be Permitted Exceptions:

(a)

the lien of all ad valorem real estate taxes and assessments not yet due and payable as of the date of Closing, subject to adjustment as herein provided;

(b)

local, state and federal laws, ordinances or governmental regulations, including but not limited to, building and zoning laws, ordinances and regulations, now or hereafter in effect relating to the Property; and

2.6.

Seller’s Covenant Not to Encumber. Seller agrees that, between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, Seller will not sell, assign, rent, convey (absolutely or as security), grant a security interest and, or otherwise encumber or dispose of, the Property (or any part thereof or estate therein) in any manner that will survive Closing, except as approved in writing by Purchaser or as expressly provided in this Agreement.

ARTICLE 6.

DEFAULT

6.1.

Default by Purchaser. If Purchaser defaults hereunder, then Seller shall be entitled, as its sole and exclusive remedy, to terminate this Agreement and receive the Earnest Money as liquidated damages for the breach of this Agreement and not as a penalty, it being agreed between the parties hereto that the actual damages to Seller in the event of such breach are impractical to ascertain and the amount of the Earnest Money is a reasonable



8



estimate thereof, Seller hereby expressly waiving and relinquishing any and all other remedies at law or in equity. Seller’s retention of the Earnest Money is intended not as a penalty, but as full liquidated damages. The right to retain the Earnest Money as full liquidated damages is Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy in the event of default hereunder by Purchaser, and Seller hereby waives and releases any right to (and hereby covenants that it shall not) sue Purchaser: (a) for specific performance of this Agreement, or (b) to recover actual damages in excess of the Earnest Money. Purchaser hereby waives and releases any right to (and hereby covenants that it shall not) sue Seller or seek or claim a refund of the Earnest Money (or any part thereof) on the grounds it is unreasonable in amount and exceeds Seller’s actual damages or that its retention by Seller constitutes a penalty and not agreed upon and reasonable liqui dated damages. This Section 6.1 is subject to Section 6.4 hereof.

6.2.

Default by Seller.

If Seller defaults hereunder, then Purchaser shall be entitled, as its sole remedy, either (a) to receive the return of the Earnest Money which return shall operate to terminate this Agreement and release Seller from any and all liability hereunder, or (b) to enforce specific performance of Seller’s obligation to execute and deliver the documents required to convey the Property to Purchaser in the event of, and only in the event of, Seller’s refusal to so execute and deliver said documents upon tender of the cash and documentation due from Purchaser at Closing, it being understood and agreed that the remedy of specific performance shall not be available to enforce any other obligation of Seller hereunder. Purchaser expressly waives its rights to seek damages in the event of Seller’s default hereunder; provided, however, that if Seller’s default constitutes a Seller Wanton Default (as hereinafter defined) and Purchaser makes the election described i n clause (a) above, then Purchaser shall also have the right to enforce against Seller a claim for money damages, in an amount equal to the amount of all third-party out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Purchaser in connection with this Agreement and the Property, including without limitation, Property inspection costs, engineering and environmental review costs, and legal fees and expenses, in a total amount not in excess of Fifty Thousand ($50,000.00) Dollars. In no event shall Seller be liable for consequential, speculative, remote or punitive damages, and Purchaser hereby waives any right to seek or collect any such consequential, speculative, remote or punitive damages. “Seller Wanton Default” means any one or more of the following: criminal conduct, fraud, or an intentional and deliberate act or omission of Seller taken on or after the Effective Date that is intended to result in, and does result in, the failure or inability (or substantial impairment of the ability) of Purchaser or S eller to consummate this Agreement or to satisfy the conditions set forth in this Agreement. Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement and receive back the Earnest Money, together with all interest earned thereon, if Purchaser fails to file demand in arbitration for specific performance against Seller on or before thirty (30) days following the date upon which Closing was to have occurred.

6.3.

Notice of Default: Opportunity to Cure. Neither Seller nor Purchaser shall be deemed to be in default hereunder until and unless such party has been given written notice of its failure to comply with the terms hereof and thereafter does not cure such failure within ten (10) business days after receipt of such notice; provided, however, that this Section 6.3 (a) shall not be applicable to a party’s failure to make any deliveries required of such party on the Closing Date, and (b) shall not have the effect of extending the Closing Date.

6.4.

Recoverable Damages. Notwithstanding Sections 6.1 and 6.2 hereof, in no event shall the provisions of Sections 6.1 and 6.2 limit the damages recoverable by either party against the other party due to the other party’s express obligation to indemnify such party in accordance with Section 8.2 of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 7.

RISK OF LOSS

7.1.

Minor Damage. In the event of loss or damage to the Property or any portion thereof which is not “major” (as hereinafter defined), this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect provided Seller performs any necessary repairs or, at Seller’s option, assigns to Purchaser all of Seller’s right, title and interest to any claims and proceeds Seller may have with respect to any casualty insurance policies or condemnation awards relating to the premises in question. In the event that Seller elects to perform repairs upon the Property, Seller shall use reasonable efforts to complete such repairs promptly, and the date of Closing shall be extended a reasonable time in order to allow for the completion of such repairs. If Seller elects to assign a casualty claim to Purchaser, the Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to the deductible amount under Seller’s insurance policy. Upon Closing, full risk of loss with respect to the Pro perty shall pass to Purchaser.



9



7.2.

Major Damage. In the event of a “major” loss or damage, Purchaser may  terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller, in which event the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser. If Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Agreement within ten (10) days after Seller sends Purchaser written notice of the occurrence of major loss or damage, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to proceed with Closing, in which event Seller shall, at Seller’s option, either (a) perform any necessary repairs, or (b) assign to Purchaser all of Seller’s right, title and interest to any claims and proceeds Seller may have with respect to any casualty insurance policies or condemnation awards relating to the premises in question. In the event that Seller elects to perform repairs upon the Property, Seller shall use reasonable efforts to complete such repairs promptly, and the date of Closing shall be extended a reasonable time in order to allow for the completion of such repairs. If Seller elects to assign a casualty claim to Purchaser, the Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to the deductible amount under Seller’s insurance policy. Upon Closing, full risk of loss with respect to the Property shall pass to Purchaser.

7.3.

Definition of “Major” Loss or Damage. For purposes of Sections 7.1 and 7.2, “major” loss or damage refers to the following: (a) loss or damage to the Property or any portion thereof such that the cost of repairing or restoring the portion of the Property in question to a condition substantially similar to that portion of the Property prior to the event of damage would be, in the opinion of an architect selected by Seller and reasonably approved by Purchaser, equal to or greater than Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($ 250,000.00) or would, in the opinion of said architect, require more than 60 days from notice of the occurrence of the loss or damage received by Seller for repair or restoration, or (b) any material loss due to a condemnation. If Purchaser does not give notice to Seller of Purchaser’s reasons for disapproving an architect within five (5) business days after receipt of notice of the proposed architect, Purchaser shall be deemed to have approved the architect selected by Seller.

7.4

Inspection of Repair.  In the event Seller elects pursuant to this Article to repair any damage suffered by the Property, upon completion of repairs Seller shall notify Purchaser who shall have ten (10) days after receipt of such notice to inspect the Property to determine it is in condition contemplated for closing under this Agreement and to give Seller notice of any deficiencies. Seller shall use reasonable diligence to correct any deficiencies and closing shall be delayed pending completion of such correction.

7.5

Holder of GE Mortgage.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article 7, the disposition or application of any insurance proceeds shall be subject to the approval of the holder of the GE Mortgage and no election with regard thereto shall be effective absent such approval.
