The Candie’s Foundation

The Candie’s Foundation, a charitable foundation founded by Neil Cole for the purpose of raising national awareness about the consequences of teenage pregnancy, owed the Company less than $0.1 million and $0.6 million at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The Candie’s Foundation intends to pay-off the entire borrowing from the Company during 2014, although additional advances will be made as and when necessary.
