Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Merger Agreement with Kids2, Inc.

On March 16, 2022, Summer Infant, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, Kids2, Inc., a Georgia corporation (“Parent”), and Project Abacus Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”). The Merger Agreement provides, subject to its terms and conditions, for the acquisition of the Company by Parent through the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Proposed Merger”).

The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”) unanimously (i) determined and declared that the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Proposed Merger, are advisable and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders; (ii) approved the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Proposed Merger; and (iii) resolved to recommend that the Company’s stockholders adopt the Merger Agreement (the “Company Board Recommendation”).

Under the terms of the Proposed Merger, (i) each share of common stock of the Company issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Proposed Merger (the “Effective Time”) (other than shares of common stock (a) owned by Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or any subsidiary of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company, or (b) held by a stockholder who is entitled to, and who has perfected, appraisal rights for such shares under Delaware law) automatically will be converted into the right to receive cash in an amount equal to $12.00 per share (the “Merger Consideration”), without interest, subject to any required withholding of taxes; and (ii) each outstanding unexercised, vested or unvested option or unvested restricted stock award outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into the right to receive cash (without interest, subject to any required withholding of taxes) (a) in the case of options, in an amount equal to the product of the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price of such option, multiplied by the number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the option or (b) in the case of unvested restricted stock awards, in amount equal to the product of the Merger Consideration multiplied by the number of shares subject to the restricted stock award.

The completion of the Proposed Merger is subject to closing conditions, including: (i) the approval of the Merger Agreement by the Company’s stockholders (the “Stockholder Approval”); (ii) the absence of any laws or court orders making the Proposed Merger illegal or otherwise prohibiting the Proposed Merger; (iii) other customary closing conditions, including the accuracy of the representations and warranties of each party (subject to certain materiality exceptions) and material compliance by each party with its covenants under the Merger Agreement; and (iv) the closing of a debt financing by Parent, a portion of the proceeds of which will fund Parent’s obligation to pay the Merger Consideration.

Parent has entered into debt commitment letters providing for (i) an asset-based credit facility and (ii) a term loan, a portion of the proceeds of which will fund Parent’s obligation to pay the Merger Consideration at the closing of the Proposed Merger. The obligations of the lenders under the debt commitment letters are subject to a number of conditions, including the receipt of executed loan documentation, accuracy of certain specified representations and warranties, and certain pro forma financial conditions.

The Merger Agreement contains representations and warranties customary for transactions of this type. The Company has agreed to various customary covenants and agreements, including, among others, (i) agreements to use commercially reasonable efforts to conduct its and its subsidiaries’ businesses in the ordinary course of business during the period between the date of the Merger Agreement and the Effective Time and not to engage in certain kinds of transactions during this period; and (ii) to call a meeting of its stockholders to adopt the Merger Agreement.

The Company has also agreed not to (i) solicit proposals relating to alternative transactions; or (ii) participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish any non-public information relating to the Company in connection with, any proposal for an alternative transaction, subject to certain exceptions to permit the Board of Directors to comply with its fiduciary duties. Notwithstanding these “no-shop” restrictions, prior to obtaining the Stockholder Approval, under specified circumstances, the Board of Directors may change the Company Board Recommendation in connection with its decision to accept a superior proposal (in which case the Company is also required to terminate the Merger Agreement and pay the termination fee described below).

The Merger Agreement may be terminated by mutual written consent of the Company and Parent or by either the Company or Parent in certain circumstances if the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement is not caused by any breach of the Merger Agreement by the party electing to terminate the Merger Agreement. If the Board of Directors approves a change of the Company Board Recommendation, the Company will be required to pay Parent a termination fee of $2,310,600.

In connection with entering into the Merger Agreement, Wynnefield Capital Management LLC and Jason Macari, who beneficially own shares of common stock constituting approximately 53% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock, have each entered into a similar voting and support agreement with Parent pursuant to which they agreed to vote their beneficially owned shares of common stock in favor of the Proposed Merger, and their respective agreements will automatically terminate in certain circumstances, including if the Merger Agreement is terminated or the Board of Directors changes its Company Board Recommendation.

A copy of the Merger Agreement has been filed herewith to provide investors with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company. In particular, the representations and warranties contained in the Merger Agreement were made only for the purposes of the Merger Agreement as of the specific dates therein and were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Merger Agreement. The representations and warranties contained in the Merger Agreement may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the parties to the Merger Agreement and are qualified by information in confidential disclosure schedules provided in connection with the signing of the Merger Agreement. These confidential disclosure schedules contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth in the Merger Agreement. Moreover, certain representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement may be subject to a standard of materiality provided for in the Merger Agreement and have been used for the purpose of allocating risk among the parties, rather than establishing matters of fact. Investors are not third-party beneficiaries under the Merger Agreement and should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Merger Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company’s public disclosures.

If the Proposed Merger is consummated, the Company’s common stock will be delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market and deregistered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

As previously disclosed, neither Stuart Noyes, the Company’s CEO and a member of the Company Board, nor Bruce Meier, the Company’s Interim CFO, will receive any compensation from the Company for their services, rather, the Company compensates Riveron in accordance with the Engagement Letter, as amended.

Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance.

At the Effective Time, by virtue of Merger, and without any action on the part of Parent or the Merger Sub, each share of common stock, no par value per share, of the Merger Sub that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted automatically into one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation and each certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time evidenced ownership of such shares of common stock of the Merger Sub will thereafter evidence ownership of shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) Capital Stock of the Company.

(i) Generally. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, the Merger Sub, the Company, or the holders of any of such Shares, each Share that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Owned Shares and Dissenting Shares) will be converted automatically into and become the right to receive the Merger Consideration and will be cancelled and cease to exist and the holders of Certificates will cease to have any rights with respect to such Shares other than the right to receive the Merger Consideration with respect to each such Share upon the surrender of the Certificate representing such Share of the transfer of such Uncertificated Share in the manner provided in Section 2.3(c) (or in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, upon delivery of an affidavit (and bond, if required) in the manner provided in Section 2.3(d)); provided, however, that the Merger Consideration will be appropriately adjusted to reflect fully the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Company Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or other like change with respect to Company Common Stock having a record date on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time. From and after the Effective Time, all Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Owned Shares and Dissenting Shares) will no longer be outstanding and will automatically be cancelled, and cease to exist, and each holder of such Shares will cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration issuable in respect thereof pursuant to this Section 1.4(b)(i). The Merger Consideration issued upon the surrender for exchange of Shares issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time (other than Owned Shares and Dissenting Shares) in accordance with the terms hereof will be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Shares, and there will be no further registration of transfers on the records of the Surviving Corporation of such Shares which were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, a Certificate (other than one representing Owned Shares) is presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, then such Certificate will be canceled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Section 1.4(b)(i).

3

(ii) Owned Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, the Merger Sub, the Company, or the holders of any of such Shares, each Share that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and owned by Parent, the Merger Sub or the Company, or by any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent, the Merger Sub or the Company (collectively, the “Owned Shares”), will automatically be cancelled and extinguished and cease to exist without any conversion thereof or consideration paid therefor.

(iii) Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, each Share that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Owned Shares) and held by a holder who has not voted in favor of adoption of the Merger or consented thereto in writing and who has properly demanded appraisal of such Shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL (collectively, the “Dissenting Shares”) will not be converted into a right to receive the Merger Consideration and will be cancelled and cease to exist and represent solely the rights provided by Section 262 of the DGCL. If, after the Effective Time, such holder fails to perfect, withdraws or otherwise loses such holder’s right to appraisal pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL, which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include a determination of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware that such holder is not entitled to appraisal rights pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL, such Shares will be treated as if they had been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 1.4(b)(i), without interest thereon, upon surrender of such Certificate or transfer of such Uncertificated Share, as the case may be. The Company will provide Parent prompt written notice of any demands received by the Company prior to the Effective Time for appraisal of Shares, any withdrawal of any such demand and any other demand, notice or instrument delivered to the Company prior to the Effective Time pursuant to Delaware Law that relates to such demand, and Parent will have the right to participate in all negotiations and Legal Proceedings with respect to such demands. Except with the prior written consent of Parent, the Company will not make any payment with respect to, or offer to settle or settle, any such demands.

4

(c) Stock Awards of the Company.

(i) Stock Options. The Company will take all requisite action (including the satisfaction of the requirements of Rule 16(b)-3(3) under the Exchange Act) so that to the extent not exercised prior to the Effective Time, each outstanding vested or unvested Company Option will, at the Effective Time and without any action on the part of Parent, the Merger Sub or the holder thereof, be cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash (without interest and subject to deduction for any required withholding Tax as contemplated in Section 2.3(f)) equal to the product of: (x) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price per share of each such Company Option, multiplied by (y) the number of Shares issuable upon the exercise in full of such Company Option (the “Option Consideration”); provided, however, that if the exercise price per share of any such Company Option is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration, such Company Option will, at the Effective Time, be cancelled and terminated without any cash payment or other consideration being made in respect thereof. At the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit with the Company or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, by wire transfer of immediately available funds into an account designated by the Company prior to the Effective Time, the cash amount required to pay all of the Option Consideration in respect of all the Company Options in accordance with this Section 1.4(c)(i) and as set forth on Schedule 1.4(c)(i) attached hereto and as soon as practicable (and in no event more than three (3) Business Days) following the Closing, Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to pay to each holder of a Company Option the Option Consideration (if any), without interest and less any applicable withholding Taxes, required to be paid to the holder of such Company Option. The cancellation of a Company Option as provided in the first sentence of this Section 1.4(c)(i) will be deemed the termination, and satisfaction in full, of any and all rights the holder had or may have had in respect of such Company Option. For the avoidance of doubt, each Company Option that has been exercised for Shares prior to the Effective Time will be treated in accordance with Section 1.4(b) hereof and will not be paid any additional Option Consideration pursuant to this Section 1.4(c)(i).

5

(ii) RSAs. The Company will take all requisite action so that each unvested RSA outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will, without any action on the part of Parent, the Merger Sub or the holder thereof, be cancelled and converted into the right to receive, an amount in cash (without interest and subject to deduction for any required withholding Tax as contemplated in Section 2.3(f)) equal to the product of: (x) the Merger Consideration and (y) the number of Shares subject to such RSA (the “RSA Consideration”). At the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit with the Company or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, by wire transfer of immediately available funds into an account designated by the Company prior to the Effective Time, the cash amount required to pay all of the RSA Consideration in respect of all the RSAs in accordance with this Section 1.4(c)(ii) and as set forth on Schedule 1.4(c)(ii) attached hereto and as soon as practicable (and in no event more than three (3) Business Days) following the Closing, Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to pay to each holder of a RSA the RSA Consideration (if any), without interest and less any applicable withholding Taxes, required to be paid to the holder of such vested RSA. The cancellation of an RSA as provided in the first two sentences of this Section 1.4(c)(ii) will be deemed the termination, and satisfaction in full, of any and all rights the holder had or may have had in respect of such RSA. For the avoidance of doubt, each RSA that has previously been settled in Shares prior to the Effective Time will be treated in accordance with Section 1.4(b) hereof and will not be paid any additional RSA Consideration pursuant to this Section 1.4(c)(ii).

(iii) Parent and the Company may agree to treat equity compensation held by Company employees subject to non-U.S. law in a manner other than that contemplated above in this Section 1.4(c) to the extent necessary to take into account applicable non-U.S. law or tax or employment considerations; provided such treatment is not materially adverse to such Company employees, as determined by Parent and the Company.

(d) At or prior to the Effective Time, the Company and the Company Board (and each relevant committee thereof, as applicable) shall adopt any resolutions and take any actions that may be necessary to effectuate the provisions of Section 1.4(b)(i) and Section 1.4(b)(ii).

1.5 Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes or intent of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of either the Company and the Merger Sub acquired or to be acquired by the Surviving Corporation as a result of, or in connection with, the Merger, then, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation will have the authority to take all such lawful and necessary action to vest all right, title or possession to such assets, property rights, privilege, powers and franchises in the Surviving Corporation.

1.6 No Further Dividends. No dividends or other distributions with respect to capital stock of the Surviving Corporation with a record date on or after the Effective Time will be paid to the holder of any Share.

(a) Payment Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall designate Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company or another bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as the payment agent for the benefit of holders of Certificates representing each Share converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 1.4(b)(i) (the “Payment Agent”).

(b) Payment Fund.

(i) Creation of Payment Fund. On the Closing Date, (A) Parent will deposit (or will cause to be deposited) with the Payment Agent, an amount of cash in U.S. dollars equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the Merger Consideration by (y) the aggregate number of Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, excluding Owned Shares and Dissenting Shares (such cash amounts in clause (A), in the aggregate, being referred to herein as the “Payment Fund”) and (B) Parent will (or will cause to be deposited) with the Surviving Corporation, cash in an amount sufficient to pay the aggregate Option Consideration and aggregate RSA Consideration to be paid in accordance with Section 1.4(c)(i) and Section 1.4(c)(ii) as set forth on Schedules 1.4(c)(i) and 1.4(c)(ii) attached hereto, and the employer portion of any payroll or other Taxes that are or will be incurred in connection with the payment of any payments described in this clause (B). From time to time following the Effective Time, Parent or the Surviving Corporation will deposit (or cause to be deposited) with the Payment Agent additional cash in any amount necessary to enable the Payment Agent to pay any and all Merger Consideration payable hereunder. The Payment Fund and the aggregated cash amounts in clause (B) of the foregoing sentence shall not be used for any purpose other than to fund payments due (or, in the case of payroll tax amounts, with respect to payments due) pursuant to this Article II.

9

(ii) Investment of Payment Fund. Until disbursed in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Payment Fund will be held by the Payment Agent in cash or in obligations of the United States or any agency or instrumentality thereof and backed by the full faith and credit of the United States. No losses with respect to any investments of the Payment Fund will affect the Merger Consideration payable to the holders of Shares pursuant to this Article II, and following any such losses that result in the Payment Fund becoming not immediately available or that result in the amount of funds in the Payment Fund being insufficient to promptly pay the portion of the aggregate Merger Consideration that remains unpaid, Parent shall promptly provide additional funds to the Payment Agent for the benefit of the holders of Shares to the extent of such insufficiency. Any interest or income resulting from investment of the Payment Fund not used to pay any portion of the aggregate Merger Consideration will be payable to Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as Parent directs.

(iii) Termination of Payment Fund. Any portion of the Payment Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of the Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Owned Shares and Dissenting Shares) on the date that is one (1) year after the Effective Time will be delivered to the Surviving Corporation upon demand, and any holders of such Shares who have not theretofore exchanged such Shares for the Merger Consideration pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.4(b) will thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat or similar Applicable Laws), solely as general creditors thereof, for any payment of and claim to the applicable Merger Consideration to which such holders may be entitled pursuant to the provisions of Article I. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by holders of such Shares two (2) years after the Effective Time, or at such earlier date as is immediately prior to the time at which such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any Governmental Authority, will, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of any claims or interest of any such holders (and their successors, assigns or personal representatives) previously entitled thereto.

10

(c) Exchange Procedures. Promptly following the Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving Corporation will cause the Payment Agent to mail to each holder of record of Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Owned Shares and Dissenting Shares): (i) a letter of transmittal in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “Letter of Transmittal”); and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates or transfer of the Uncertificated Shares in exchange for the Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of Article I. Each holder of Shares that have been converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration will be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration in respect of each of the Shares represented by a Certificate or Uncertificated Share upon (x) surrender to the Payment Agent of a Certificate, together with a duly completed and validly executed Letter of Transmittal and such other documents as may reasonably be requested by the Payment Agent, or (y) receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Payment Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Payment Agent may reasonably request) in the case of a book-entry transfer of Uncertificated Shares. Until so surrendered or transferred, as the case may be, from and after the Effective Time each such Certificate or Uncertificated Share will represent for all purposes only the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of Article I. If Certificates or Uncertificated Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation after the Effective Time for any reason, they will be canceled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration, as provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth in Article I. No interest will be paid or accrued on the cash payable upon the surrender or transfer of such Certificate or Uncertificated Share. From and after the Effective Time, there will be no further registration of transfers on the records of the Surviving Corporation of Shares that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than transfers to reflect, in accordance with customary settlement procedures, trades effected prior to the Effective Time.

(d) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event that any Certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Payment Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, the Merger Consideration issuable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 1.4(b)(i); provided, however, that the Surviving Corporation may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to that issuance, require the owners of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates to deliver a bond in such sum as the Surviving Corporation may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Surviving Corporation or the Payment Agent with respect to the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

(e) Transferred Shares. If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate or the transferred Uncertificated Share is registered, it will be a condition to such payment that (i) either such Certificate will be properly endorsed or will otherwise be in proper form for transfer or such Uncertificated Share will be properly transferred and (ii) the Person requesting such payment pays to the Payment Agent any transfer or other similar Tax required as a result of such payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate, or establish to the satisfaction of the Payment Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

11

(f) Tax Withholding. Each of the Payment Agent, Parent and the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, is entitled to deduct and withhold from any Merger Consideration, Option Consideration or RSA Consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under Tax law. To the extent that such amounts are so deducted or withheld by the Payment Agent, Parent or Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, and remitted to the applicable Governmental Authority, such amounts will be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which the Payment Agent, Parent or Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, made such deduction or withholding.

(g) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, none of the Payment Agent, Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any other party hereto will be liable to a holder of Shares for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or similar Applicable Law.

(f) Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.5, the Requisite Stockholder Approval is the only vote of the holders of any class or series of the Company’s capital stock necessary under Applicable Law, the Company Charter or the Company Bylaws to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

As of the date of this Agreement, no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default or breach on the part of Parent under any term or condition of the Debt Commitment Letters, or otherwise result in any portion of the Debt Financing contemplated thereby to be unavailable. There are no conditions precedent or other contingencies related to the funding of the full amount of the Debt Financing, other than as set forth in the Debt Commitment Letters in the form so delivered to the Company. Assuming satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.2(b) (other than Section 2.2(b)(iv)) and the accuracy of the Fundamental Representations and the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.8, as of the date of this Agreement, Parent has no reason to believe that any term or condition to the Debt Financing set forth in the Debt Commitment Letters will not be fully satisfied on a timely basis or that the Debt Financing will not be available to Parent at the Closing, including any reason to believe that any of the Financing Sources will not perform their respective funding obligations under the Debt Commitment Letters in accordance with their respective terms and conditions.

(i) Promptly following the date of this Agreement and provided that Parent and Merger Sub have furnished all information concerning themselves and their Affiliates that is required to be included in the Proxy Statement (and in any event, no later than twenty (20) Business Days after the date of this Agreement), the Company will prepare and file with the SEC a preliminary proxy statement (as amended or supplemented, the “Proxy Statement”) relating to the Company Stockholder Meeting. Subject to Section 7.1(c), the Company will include the Company Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement.

(ii) If the Company determines that it is required to file any document other than the Proxy Statement with the SEC in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Merger) pursuant to Applicable Law (such document, as amended or supplemented, an “Other Required Company Filing”), then the Company will promptly prepare and file such Other Required Company Filing with the SEC. The Company will cause the Proxy Statement and any Other Required Company Filing to comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules of the SEC and Nasdaq. The Company may not file the Proxy Statement or any Other Required Company Filing with the SEC without providing Parent and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon, which comments will be considered by the Company in good faith. On the date of filing, the date of giving to the stockholders of the Company (if applicable) and at the time of the Company Stockholder Meeting, neither the Proxy Statement nor any Other Required Company Filing will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not false or misleading. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no covenant is made by the Company with respect to any information supplied by Parent, the Merger Sub or any of their Affiliates in writing specifically for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement or any Other Required Company Filing.

46

(iii) If Parent, the Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates is required to file any document with the SEC in connection with the Merger or the Company Stockholder Meeting pursuant to Applicable Law (an “Other Required Parent Filing”), then Parent and the Merger Sub will, and will cause their respective Affiliates to, promptly prepare and file such Other Required Parent Filing with the SEC. Parent and the Merger Sub will cause, and will cause their respective Affiliates to cause, any Other Required Parent Filing to comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules of the SEC. Neither Parent or the Merger Sub nor any of their respective Affiliates may file any Other Required Parent Filing (or any amendment thereto) with the SEC without providing the Company and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon, which comments will be considered by Parent, the Merger Sub or their respective Affiliates in good faith. The comments provided by the Company and its counsel on such Other Required Parent Filing shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not false or misleading. On the date of filing, the date of giving to the stockholders of the Company (if applicable) and at the time of the Company Stockholder Meeting, no Other Required Parent Filing will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not false or misleading.

If at any time prior to the Company Stockholder Meeting any information relating to the Company, Parent, the Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates should be discovered by the Company, on the one hand, or Parent or the Merger Sub, on the other hand, that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement, any Other Required Company Filing or any Other Required Parent Filing, as the case may be, so that such filing would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, then the party that discovers such information will promptly notify the other, and an appropriate amendment or supplement to such filing describing such information will be promptly prepared and filed with the SEC by the appropriate party and, to the extent required by Applicable Law or the SEC or its staff, disseminated to the stockholders of the Company.

47

(v) The Company and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Parent, the Merger Sub and their respective Affiliates, on the other hand, may not communicate in writing with the SEC or its staff with respect to the Proxy Statement, any Other Required Company Filing or any Other Required Parent Filing, as the case may be, without providing the other, to the extent practicable, a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such written communication, which comments will be considered by the filing party in good faith.

(vi) The Company, on the one hand, and Parent and the Merger Sub, on the other hand, will advise the other, promptly after it receives notice thereof, of any receipt of a request by the SEC or its staff for (A) any amendment or revisions to the Proxy Statement, any Other Required Company Filing or any Other Required Parent Filing, as the case may be, (B) any receipt of comments from the SEC or its staff on the Proxy Statement, any Other Required Company Filing or any Other Required Parent Filing, as the case may be, or (C) any receipt of a request by the SEC or its staff for additional information in connection therewith.

The Company agrees as requested by Parent to seek to limit the scope of any disclosure of Parent Financial Disclosure, including seeking to obtain confidential treatment or to provide redacted documents in connection with any Parent Financial Disclosure.

48

(b) Stockholder Meeting.

(i) Except as otherwise permitted pursuant to this Section 7.1(b)(i), the Company will establish a record date for, call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of the stockholders of the Company (including any adjournments or postponements thereof) as promptly as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement for the purpose of voting upon the adoption of this Agreement in accordance with Delaware Law (the “Company Stockholders Meeting”); provided that, without the prior written consent of Parent and subject to the exceptions set forth in the last sentence of this Section 7.1(b)(i), (x) the Company Stockholders Meeting will not be scheduled for any day later than forty-five (45) calendar days after the SEC Clearance Date and (y) the Company may not adjourn or postpone the Company Stockholders Meeting; provided, further, that, (A) within two (2) Business Days following the SEC Clearance Date, Parent may request that the date of the Company Stockholders Meeting and notice thereof be on a date specified by the Parent, provided that the date upon which notice of the Company Stockholders Meeting is sent shall not be later than May 26, 2022, or (B) if Parent reasonably requests an adjournment or postponement of the Company Stockholders Meeting on the basis that any of the conditions in Section 2.2(b) would be reasonably likely to have not been fulfilled as of the date of the Company Stockholders Meeting, but could be fulfilled if the Company Stockholders Meeting was adjourned or postponed, the Company Board (or a committee thereof) or the presiding officer of the Company Stockholders Meeting, as the case may be, shall consider such an adjournment or postponement in good faith, and may, but shall not be obligated to, adjourn or postpone the Company Stockholders Meeting. Once established, the Company will not change the record date for the Company Stockholders Meeting without the prior written consent of Parent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, nothing will prevent the Company from (A) postponing or adjourning the Company Stockholder Meeting without consent of Parent if (w) there are holders of an insufficient Shares present or represented by proxy at the Company Stockholder Meeting to constitute a quorum at the Company Stockholder Meeting, (x) the Company is required to postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholder Meeting by Applicable Law, order or a request from the SEC, Nasdaq or their respective staffs, (y) the Company Board (or a committee thereof) or the presiding officer of the Company Stockholders Meeting, as the case may be, has determined in good faith (after consultation with outside legal counsel) that it is necessary or appropriate to postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholder Meeting in order to give the stockholders of the Company sufficient time to evaluate any information or disclosure that the Company has given to the stockholders of the Company or otherwise made available to the stockholders of the Company (including in connection with any Company Board Recommendation Change), or (z) the Company Board (or a committee thereof) or the presiding officer of the Company Stockholders Meeting, as the case may be, determine in good faith (after consultation with its outside counsel) that the failure to adjourn or postpone the Company Stockholders Meeting would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the Company and its stockholders under Applicable Law or (B) changing the record date for the Company Stockholders Meeting if the Company Board (or a committee thereof) determines in good faith (after consultation with outside counsel) that the failure to change the record date for the Company Stockholders Meeting would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the Company and its stockholders under Applicable Law. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Company Stockholders Meeting shall not be less than thirty (30) days following the date upon which notice of the Company Stockholders Meeting is sent. The parties hereto further acknowledge and agree that if the Company takes any action to adjourn or postpone the Company Stockholders Meeting, the reference to the Termination Date with respect to Company’s right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(b) shall be deemed to be the later of (1) the Termination Date as set forth herein, and (2) the date that is the fourth (4^th) Business Day following the date of the Company Stockholders Meeting, provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, such reference to the Termination Date shall not affect either party’s right to terminate this Agreement prior to the Termination Date as other provided in Article VIII.

49

(ii) The Company will solicit from stockholders of the Company proxies in favor of the adoption of this Agreement in accordance with Delaware Law, and, unless the Company Board has approved a Company Board Recommendation Change, will take all action customary for such transactions, including without limitation, the hiring of a proxy solicitation firm, to obtain the Requisite Stockholder Approval at the Company Stockholders Meeting. Unless this Agreement is earlier terminated pursuant to Article VIII, the Company will establish a record date for, call, give notice of, convene and hold the Company Stockholders Meeting for the purpose of voting upon the adoption of this Agreement in accordance with Delaware Law.

(i) Subject to the provisions of this Section 7.1(c), (A) the Company Board will (x) make the Company Board Recommendation and (y) include the Company Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement, and (B) neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof will (1) publicly propose to withhold, withdraw, amend, modify or qualify the Company Board Recommendation in a manner that is adverse to Parent, or (2) approve, endorse, adopt or recommend, or publicly propose to approve, endorse, adopt or recommend, an Acquisition Proposal or Acquisition Transaction, (the actions or inactions referred to in the preceding clauses (1) and (2) being referred to herein as a “Company Board Recommendation Change”).

50

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, at any time prior to obtaining the Requisite Stockholder Approval, the Company Board may effect a Company Board Recommendation Change, provided that it simultaneously terminates this Agreement, in the event that:

(A) the Company has received a written Acquisition Proposal from a Third Party after the date of this Agreement that was not solicited in violation of Section 6.1(a);

(B) the Company Board has determined in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and its outside legal counsel) that such Acquisition Proposal is a Superior Proposal (which determination and any public announcement thereof will not constitute a Company Board Recommendation Change; provided, however, that the Company shall not announce such determination until such time as it makes a Company Board Recommendation Change);

(C) prior to effecting such Company Board Recommendation Change, the Company will have given Parent at least five (5) Business Days’ notice of the Company Board’s intention to effect a Company Board Recommendation Change pursuant to this Section 7.1(c)(ii) (such five (5) Business Day period, the “Change of Recommendation Notice Period”), which notice will include the most current version of the proposed definitive agreement and, to the extent not included therein, all other material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal;

(D) if requested by Parent, in writing prior to the end of the Change of Recommendation Notice Period, during the Change of Recommendation Notice Period, the Company will have met and negotiated in good faith with Parent regarding modifications to the terms and conditions of this Agreement;

(E) prior to the end of the Change of Recommendation Notice Period, if Parent will not have made a counter-offer or proposal in writing and in a manner that, if accepted by the Company, would form a binding contract, that the Company Board determines (after consultation with its financial advisor and its outside legal counsel) is at least as favorable to stockholders of the Company as such Superior Proposal, it being understood that (x) any material revision to the terms of a Superior Proposal, including any revision in price, will require a new notice pursuant to clause (C) above, (y) the Change of Recommendation Notice Period will be extended, if applicable, to the extent necessary to ensure that at least three (3) Business Days remain in the Change of Recommendation Notice Period subsequent to the time the Company notifies Parent of any such material revision and (z) there may be multiple, but not more than two (2), extensions of the Change of Recommendation Notice Period; and

51

(F) the Company Board has determined (after consultation with its outside legal counsel and after considering any counter-offer or proposal made by Parent pursuant to clause (E) above), that, in light of such Superior Proposal, the failure to effect a Company Board Recommendation Change would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the Company and its stockholders under Applicable Law.

(iii) Nothing in this Agreement will prohibit the Company Board from taking and disclosing to stockholders of the Company a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) under the Exchange Act or complying with the provisions of Rule 14d-9 under the Exchange Act or any other Applicable Law; provided, however, that any statement(s) made by the Company Board pursuant to Rule 14e-2(a) under the Exchange Act or Rule 14d-9 under the Exchange Act will be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement; provided, further, for avoidance of doubt, that it will not constitute a Company Board Recommendation Change for the Company Board to make a “stop, look and listen” communication pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act.

7.2 Financing.

(a) No Amendments to Financing Commitment Letters. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, neither Parent nor the Merger Sub will, without the prior written consent of the Company, permit any amendment or modification to be made to, or any waiver of any provision or remedy pursuant to, the Debt Commitment Letters if such amendment, modification or waiver would, (i) reduce the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing, (ii) impose new or additional conditions or other terms (except in connection with any “market flex” terms contained in the Debt Commitment Letter provided as of the date hereof) to the Debt Financing, or otherwise expand, amend or modify any of the conditions to the receipt of the Debt Financing, in a manner that would reasonably be expected to (A) delay, prevent or materially impede the consummation of the Merger, or (B) make the timely funding of the Debt Financing, or the satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Debt Financing, less likely to occur in any respect, or (iii) adversely impact the ability of Parent or the Merger Sub, to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Debt Commitment Letters or the definitive agreements with respect thereto. In addition to the foregoing, Parent will not release or consent to the termination of the Debt Commitment Letters or of any individual lender under the Debt Commitment Letters, except for (x) assignments and replacements of an individual lender under the terms of, and only in connection with, the syndication of the Debt Financing under the Debt Commitment Letters, or (y) replacements of the Debt Commitment Letters with alternative financing commitments pursuant to Section 7.2(b).

(b) Debt Financing and Alternate Debt Financing. Parent will use (or cause the Merger Sub to use) its commercially reasonable efforts to arrange and obtain the Debt Financing on the terms and conditions (including, to the extent required, the full exercise of any flex provisions) set forth in the Debt Commitment Letters, including using its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) maintain in effect the Debt Commitment Letters in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, (ii) comply with its obligations under the Debt Commitment Letters, (iii) negotiate, execute and deliver definitive agreements with respect to the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letters on the terms and conditions (including the flex provisions) contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letters, (iv) satisfy on a timely basis (or obtain a waiver to) all conditions to funding that are applicable to Parent and the Merger Sub in the Debt Commitment Letters and the definitive agreements with respect to the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letters, (v) enforce its rights pursuant to the Debt Commitment Letter, and (vi) consummate the Debt Financing at or prior to the Closing, including by causing the Debt Financing Sources to fund the Debt Financing at the Closing. Parent and the Merger Sub will fully pay, or cause to be fully paid, all commitment or other fees arising pursuant to the Debt Commitment Letters as and when they become due. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, in the event that any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions (including the flex provisions) set forth in the Debt Commitment Letters (unless such portion is not reasonably required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), Parent will use its commercially reasonable efforts to, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the occurrence of such event, (i) obtain alternative financing from alternative sources on terms and conditions not materially less favorable in the aggregate to Parent and the Merger Sub than those set forth in the Debt Commitment Letters and in an amount at least equal to the Debt Financing or such unavailable portion thereof, as the case may be (the “Alternate Debt Financing”), and (ii) obtain one or more New Debt Commitment Letters which will replace the existing Debt Commitment Letters in whole or in part. Parent will promptly provide the Company with a copy of any New Debt Commitment Letters (and any fee letter in connection therewith). In the event that any New Debt Commitment Letters are obtained, (A) any reference in this Agreement to the “Debt Commitment Letters” will be deemed to include the Debt Commitment Letters to the extent not superseded by any New Debt Commitment Letter at the time in question and any New Debt Commitment Letters to the extent then in effect, and (B) any reference in this Agreement to the “Debt Financing” means the debt financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letters as modified pursuant to the foregoing.

53

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent and the Merger Sub will promptly notify the Company (A) of any breach (or threatened breach) or default (or any event or circumstance that, with notice or lapse of time or both, could reasonably be expected to give rise to any breach or default) by any party to the Debt Commitment Letters or definitive agreements related to the Debt Financing, (B) of the receipt by Parent or the Merger Sub of any oral or written notice or communication from any Debt Financing Source with respect to any (1) breach (or threatened breach), default, termination or repudiation by any party to a Debt Commitment Letter or any definitive agreements related to the Debt Financing of any provisions of the Debt Commitment Letter or such definitive agreements, or (2) dispute or disagreement between or among any parties to a Debt Commitment Letter or any definitive agreements related to the Debt Financing, and (C) if for any reason Parent or the Merger Sub at any time believes that it will not be able to obtain all or any portion of the Debt Financing on the terms, in the manner or from the sources contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letters or any definitive agreements related to the Debt Financing. Parent will provide any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to any of the circumstances referred to in the previous sentence as soon as reasonably practical (but in any event within one Business Day) after the date that the Company delivers a written request therefor to Parent. Parent will, and will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Debt Financing Sources to provide the Company and its Representatives with such access to Parent and the Debt Financing Sources as the Company and its Representatives may reasonably request for the purpose of allowing the Company and its Representatives to understand the status of Parent’s efforts to arrange the Debt Financing; provided that Parent and its Representatives will be permitted to participate in any such discussions or communications. 

(d) Company Support.

(i) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to use their respective commercially reasonable efforts, to provide Parent with cooperation reasonably requested by Parent to assist it in causing the conditions in the Debt Commitment Letters to be satisfied or as is otherwise reasonably requested by Parent in connection with the Debt Financing, including:

(D) furnishing Parent and the Debt Financing Sources, as promptly as practicable, with (a) audited financial statements of the Company for the fiscal years ended January 2, 2021 and December 28, 2019, (b) unaudited consolidated balance sheets and related unaudited statements of income and cash flows related to the Company and its Subsidiaries, for each subsequent fiscal quarter (other than the fourth fiscal quarter) ended at least forty-five (45) days before the Closing Date, and (c) such other financial and other pertinent information regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries (including information regarding the business, operations and financial projections thereof) as may be reasonably requested by Parent to assist in the preparation of a customary confidential information memorandum or other customary information documents used in financings of the type contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter (all such information and documents in this Section 7.2(d)(i)(D), the “Required Financial Information”); provided that the Company shall have been deemed to have delivered the information required by clause (a) and clause (b) if such information has been filed in the SEC Reports. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, such Required Financial Information will be deemed to not have been delivered if, at any point prior to the completion of the Debt Financing, (a) such Required Financial Information contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary in order to make such Required Financial Information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and (b) the Company’s auditors have withdrawn any audit opinion with respect to any financial statements contained in the Required Financial Information;

(G) delivering notices of prepayment within the time periods required by the relevant agreements governing indebtedness and obtaining customary payoff letters, lien and guarantee terminations and instruments of discharge (including UCC-3 termination statements) to be delivered at the Closing, and giving any other necessary notices, to allow for the payoff, discharge and termination in full at the Closing of all indebtedness required by the Debt Commitment Letters to be paid, discharged or terminated;

(H) taking all corporate and other actions, subject to the occurrence of the Closing, reasonably requested by Parent to (1) permit the consummation of the Debt Financing, and (2) cause the direct borrowing or incurrence of debt and receipt of all of the proceeds of the Debt Financing by the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries concurrently with or immediately following the Effective Time; and

56

(ii) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.2(d)(i) or any other provision of this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement will require the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to (A) waive or amend any terms of this Agreement or agree to pay any fees or reimburse any expenses prior to the Effective Time for which it has not received prior reimbursement or is not otherwise indemnified by or on behalf of Parent, (B) enter into any definitive agreement, (C) give any indemnities in connection with the Debt Financing that are effective prior to the Effective Time, (D) take any action that, in the good faith determination of the Company (after consultation with its outside legal counsel), would unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries or create an unreasonable risk of damage or destruction to any property or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (E) provide any information the disclosure of which is prohibited or restricted under Applicable Law or is legally privileged, or (F) take any action that will conflict with or violate its organizational documents or any Applicable Laws, or would result in a violation or breach of, or default under, any agreement to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party. In addition, (1) no action, liability or obligation of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives pursuant to any certificate, agreement, arrangement, document or instrument relating to the Debt Financing will be effective until the Effective Time, and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries will be required to take any action pursuant to any certificate, agreement, arrangement, document or instrument (including being an issuer or other obligor with respect to the Debt Financing) that is not contingent on the occurrence of the Closing or that must be effective prior to the Effective Time, and (2) any bank information memoranda required in relation to the Debt Financing will contain disclosure and financial statements reflecting the Surviving Corporation or its Subsidiaries as the obligor. Nothing in this Section 7.2 will require (A) any officer or Representative of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to deliver any certificate or opinion or take any other action pursuant to Section 7.2(d)(i), or any other provision of this Agreement that could reasonably be expected to result in personal liability to such officer or Representative, or (B) the members of the Company Board as of immediately prior to the Effective Time to approve any financing or Contracts related thereto.

(e) Use of Logos. The Company hereby consents to the use of all logos of the Company and its Subsidiaries in connection with the Debt Financing, so long as such logos (i) are used solely in a manner that is not intended to or likely to harm or disparage the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and (ii) are used solely in connection with a description of the Company, its business and products or the Merger.

57

7.3 Efforts to Close.

(a) Reasonable Best Efforts. In furtherance and not in limitation of the other covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, including Sections 7.2 and 7.3, upon and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in accordance with Applicable Laws, each of Parent, the Merger Sub and the Company will use their reasonable best efforts to take (or cause to be taken) all actions, and to do (or cause to be done), and to assist and cooperate with the other party or parties hereto in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the Merger and other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including using reasonable best efforts to (i) cause the conditions to the Merger set forth in Section 2.2 to be satisfied or fulfilled, (ii) in addition to the matters covered in Section 7.2, obtain all other necessary consents, waivers, approvals, orders and authorizations from Governmental Authorities and make all registrations, declarations and filings with Governmental Authorities, in each case that are necessary or advisable to consummate the Merger, and (iii) obtain all necessary consents, waivers and approvals under any Material Contracts to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party in connection with this Agreement and the consummation of the Merger and other transactions contemplated by this Agreement so as to maintain and preserve in all material respects, the benefits under such Material Contracts following the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Merger).

(b) Forbearance. In addition to the foregoing, upon and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, (i) Parent or the Merger Sub will not, and will cause their Affiliates to not, and (ii) the Company and its Subsidiaries will not, in each case take any action, or fail to take any action, that is intended to or has, or would reasonably be expected to have, the effect of preventing, impairing, materially delaying or otherwise adversely affecting (i) the consummation of the Merger, including (A) imposing any delay in the obtaining of, or materially increasing the risk of not obtaining, any authorization, consent, order, declaration or approval of any Governmental Authority necessary to consummate the Merger or the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period, (B) increasing the risk of any Governmental Authority entering an order prohibiting the consummation of the Merger, (C) increasing the risk of not being able to remove any such order on appeal or otherwise, or (D) delaying or preventing the consummation of the Merger or (ii) the ability of such party to fully perform its obligations pursuant to this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, no action by the Company taken in compliance with Section 7.2(d) will be considered a violation of this Section 7.3(b).

(c) No Consent Fee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 7.3 or elsewhere in this Agreement, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries will be required to agree to the payment of a consent fee, “profit sharing” payment or other consideration (including increased or accelerated payments), or the provision of additional security (including a guaranty), in connection with the Merger, including in connection with obtaining any consent pursuant to any Material Contract.

58

7.4 Access to the Company. At all times during the period commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier to occur of the valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII and the Effective Time, the Company will afford Parent and its Representatives (and including the Financing Sources and their respective Representatives) reasonable access, during normal business hours and after reasonable advance notice, to all assets, properties, books and records and personnel of the Company and its Subsidiaries as Parent may reasonably request; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may restrict or otherwise prohibit access to any documents or information to the extent that (a) any Applicable Law requires the Company to restrict or otherwise prohibit access to such documents or information; (b) access to such documents would be in violation of the any applicable Antitrust Laws; (c) such information relates to the applicable portions of the minutes of the meetings of the Company Board (including any presentations or other materials prepared by or for the Company Board) where the Company Board discussed the Merger or any similar transaction involving the sale of the Company, or a material portion of its assets, to, or combination of the Company with, any other Person, (d) access to such documents or information would give rise to a material risk of waiving any attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or other privilege applicable to such documents or information; (e) access to a Contract to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or otherwise bound would violate or cause a default pursuant to, or give a third Person the right terminate or accelerate the rights pursuant to, such Contract; (f) access would result in the disclosure of any trade secrets of third Persons; (g) such documents or information are reasonably pertinent to any adverse Legal Proceeding between the Company and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Parent and its Affiliates, on the other hand; or (h) where access to such documents would act in contravention to model clauses between the Company and its subsidiaries to be adopted as of the Effective Time pursuant to the Company’s General Data Protection Regulation compliance procedures and protocols. Any investigation conducted pursuant to the access contemplated by this Section 7.4 will be conducted in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries or create a risk of damage or destruction to any property or assets of the Company or its Subsidiaries. Any access to the properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries will be subject to the Company’s reasonable security measures and insurance requirements and will not include the right to perform invasive testing.

59

(b) At all times during the period commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier to occur of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII and the Effective Time, Parent will promptly notify the Company in the event that any representation or warranty made by Parent or the Merger Sub in this Agreement has become untrue or inaccurate in any material respect, or in the event that Parent or the Merger Sub has failed to comply with or satisfy in any material respect any covenant or obligation to be complied with or satisfied by it under this Agreement, in each case to the extent such untruth, inaccuracy or failure would be reasonably likely to cause any of the conditions to Closing set forth in Sections 2.2(c)(i) or 2.2(c)(ii) to fail to be satisfied.

If such “tail” insurance policies have been obtained by the Company, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, cause such “tail” insurance policies to be maintained in full force and effect, for their full term.

Each of the Indemnified Persons (and their heirs and representatives) are intended to be third party beneficiaries of this Section 7.10, with full rights of enforcement as if a party thereto. The rights of the Indemnified Persons (and their heirs and representatives) under this Section 7.10 will be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights that such persons may have under the Company Charter, Company Bylaws or other equivalent organizational documents, any and all indemnification agreements of or entered into by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or Applicable Law (whether at law or in equity).

61

(e) Preservation of Other Rights. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, will be construed to or will release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any of their respective directors, officers or other employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.10 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims under such policies.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each of the Company, Parent, and any party hereto (and each of their respective directors, officers, general or limited partners, stockholders, members, managers, controlling persons, Affiliates, employees or representatives (in each case, in such capacity)) hereby waives any rights or claims against any of the Financing Sources and their respective current, former or future directors, officers, general or limited partners, stockholders, members, managers, controlling persons, Affiliates, employees or representatives (in each case, in such capacity), in any way relating to this Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letters, any of the other documents for the Debt Financing or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Debt Financing or the performance thereof, whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise.

9.7 Expenses. Subject to Section 8.4, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Merger) will be paid by the party or parties, as applicable, incurring such expenses, whether or not the Merger is consummated.

9.8 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Company Disclosure Letter, the Confidentiality Agreement, and any certificates delivered hereunder constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided, however, the Confidentiality Agreement will not be superseded, will survive any termination of this Agreement and will continue in full force and effect until the earlier to occur of (a) the Effective Time and (b) the date on which the Confidentiality Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms. EACH PARTY HERETO AGREES THAT, EXCEPT FOR THE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER PARENT AND THE MERGER SUB, ON THE ONE HAND, NOR THE COMPANY, ON THE OTHER HAND, MAKES ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES TO THE OTHER, AND EACH PARTY HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OR AS TO THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF ANY OTHER INFORMATION, MADE (OR MADE AVAILABLE) BY ITSELF OR ANY OF ITS REPRESENTATIVES, WITH RESPECT TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE NEGOTIATION, EXECUTION OR DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, NOTWITHSTANDING THE DELIVERY OR DISCLOSURE TO THE OTHER OR THE OTHER’S REPRESENTATIVES OF ANY DOCUMENTATION OR OTHER INFORMATION WITH RESPECT TO ANY ONE OR MORE OF THE FOREGOING.

9.9 Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is not intended to, and will not, confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies hereunder, except (a) as set forth in or contemplated by the terms and provisions of Section 7.10, (b) from and after the Effective Time, the rights of holders of Shares, Company Options and RSAs to receive the consideration set forth in Article I and (c) each Financing Source will be an express third party beneficiary with respect to Sections 9.2, 9.3, 9.4, 9.12, 9.13 and this Section 9.9 and will be entitled to enforce such provisions against all parties to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Financing Source will be subject to any special, consequential, punitive or indirect damages or damages of a tortious nature.

9.10 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof, becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

9.11 Remedies.

(a) Generally. Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise by it of any other remedy.

(b) Specific Performance. The parties hereto hereby agree that irreparable injury would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the specific terms hereof or were otherwise breached, and that money damages or other legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such damages (notwithstanding the termination fees contemplated hereby).

Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement will not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with such injunction or enforcement, and each party irrevocably (i) waives any right that it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond of other security and (ii) will waive, in any action for specific performance, the defense of adequacy of a remedy at law.

71

9.12 Governing Law. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable conflicts of law principles.

9.13 Consent to Jurisdiction.

Except as specifically provided herein, none of this Amendment or Agent’s and/or any Lender’s continued making of Loans or other extensions of credit at any time extended to Borrowers in accordance with this Amendment, the Loan Agreement, and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed a waiver of or consent to any Default or Event of Default.

(g)            Severability. In case any provision in or obligation under this Amendment shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

(h)            Jury Trial Waiver. BORROWERS, GUARANTORS, AGENT AND LENDERS EACH HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER THIS AMENDMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AMENDMENT IN RESPECT OF THIS AMENDMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE RELATED TRANSACTIONS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE OBLIGATIONS OF BORROWERS, THE COLLATERAL, OR ANY INSTRUMENT OR DOCUMENT DELIVERED PURSUANT TO THIS AMENDMENT, OR THE VALIDITY, PROTECTION, INTERPRETATION, ADMINISTRATION, COLLECTION OR ENFORCEMENT OF THIS AMENDMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE.

PROPRIETARY AND CONFIDENTIAL

Fourth Amendment to Engagement Letter

This Fourth Amendment (the “Fourth Amendment”) is to the Interim Chief Executive Officer Services Engagement Letter, effective as of December 9, 2019 and amended on February 28, 2020, November 30, 2020 and January 3, 2022, between Riveron RTS, LLC (successor by merger to Winter Harbor LLC) (“Riveron”) and Summer Infant, Inc and its various affiliates and subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”) (as amended, the “Original Engagement Letter”).

The parties hereby agree to amend the Original Engagement Letter as follows:

“Act as principal executive and financial officer in connection with the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among Kids2, Inc., Project Abacus Acquisition Corp., and Summer Infant, Inc.

2. The section Fees and Expenses shall be amended to add the following:

“If, prior to or in connection with the termination of this Agreement, the Company consummates a transaction constituting a “Change in Control” (as defined in the Company’s Amended and Restated Change in Control Plan) (a “Sale Transaction”), the Company shall pay Riveron a success fee, payable at closing of the Sale Transaction, based on the per share consideration received by holders of the Company’s common stock in the Sale Transaction as set forth on the attached Schedule A.”

3. Sections 9(a) and 9(b). Indemnification and Limitation of Liability, of the General Business Terms are hereby replaced with the Indemnification and Limitation of Liability on the attached Schedule B. Sections 9(c) through 9(h) shall remain in full force and effect.

9.       Indemnification; Limitations of Liability

(a) Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, and defend Riveron and certain related entities and persons as set forth in this Section 9. If Riveron or any of its affiliates or any of their respective partners, members, officers, directors, managers, owners, shareholders, agents, employees or controlling persons (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons” and each, an “Indemnified Person” and a “Riveron Party”) becomes involved in any capacity in any claim, action, proceeding (including any objection to or proceeding involving an Indemnified Person’s fees or expenses) or investigation (each an “Action”, or collectively, “Actions”) brought by or against any person or entity, in any way related to the Agreement, the Company periodically will advance to the Indemnified Person amounts necessary to pay such Indemnified Person’s reasonable out-of-pocket legal and other expenses (including the cost of any investigation and preparation) incurred in connection with the Actions; provided, however, that if it is finally found (in a non-appealable judgment) by a court of competent jurisdiction (a “Final Judgment”) that any loss, claim, judgment, damage or liability (a “Loss”, or collectively, “Losses”) of an Indemnified Person has resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person in performing the Services, such Indemnified Person shall repay such portion of the advanced amounts, if any, that is attributable to expenses incurred in relation to the act or omission of such Indemnified Person that is the subject of such Final Judgment. The Company also will indemnify and hold the Indemnified Persons harmless from and against any Losses to which such Indemnified Person may become subject, that is related in any way to the Agreement, without regard to the exclusive or contributory negligence of any Indemnified Person, except to the extent that it is finally found in a Final Judgment that a Loss resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Person in performing the Services. In addition, the Company shall indemnify the Interim CEO and the Interim CFO to the same extent provided by the Company to its other officers and directors including under any charter, by-laws, or indemnification agreement. The Company further agrees that it will not, without the prior consent of an Indemnified Party, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened Action in respect of which such Indemnified Person seeks indemnification hereunder (whether or not such Indemnified Person is an actual party to such proceeding) unless such settlement, compromise or consent has a full unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liabilities arising out of such claim, action or proceeding.

(b) Limitations of Liability. Neither Party shall be liable to the other for consequential, incidental, indirect, punitive or special damages (including loss of profits, data, business or goodwill), regardless of the legal theory advanced or of any notice given as to the likelihood of such damages, excluding only third party damages indemnifiable under Section 9(a)(if any). The Riveron Parties shall not be liable to the Company, or any party asserting claims on behalf of the Company or otherwise, including, without limitation, any of the Company’s equity holders, for any Loss except for direct damages found in a Final Judgment to be the direct result of Riveron’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The collective liability of the Riveron Parties, if any, in relation to the Agreement or the Services shall be limited in amount to the fees actually paid to Riveron by the Company for the Services. The parties acknowledge that the limitations set forth above are integral to the amount of fees charged in connection with the Services, and that were Riveron to assume any further liability, such fees would of necessity be set substantially higher.

For purposes of this Section 2.1(a)(i), annual base salary shall be the amount in effect immediately prior to the Severance Date without regard to any voluntary salary reductions that may be in effect immediately prior to the Severance Date.

(ii)A cash payment equal to the pro-rated portion of the Eligible Employee’s annual cash bonus actually achieved for the fiscal year in which the Severance occurs, based on the number of months that the Eligible Employee was employed by the Employer during such fiscal year (rounded up to the nearest whole month).

(iii)The payment made pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) shall be payable commencing on the 61st day following the Eligible Employee’s Severance Date in equal installments over the Restricted Period (as defined in the Severance Agreement and Release) in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices, provided that the Eligible Employee has executed and returned the Severance Agreement and Release that becomes irrevocable on or before the 60th day following the Severance Date. The payment made pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(ii) shall be paid when it would otherwise be paid after the end of the relevant performance period.

5

(iv)A taxable cash payment equal to one (1) times the sum of the monthly premiums for the Eligible Employee’s group medical, dental and vision coverage (including coverage for the Eligible Employee’s eligible dependents who were covered as of the Severance Date) under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”) under the Company’s or its Affiliate’s group medical, dental and vision plans then in effect (the “Monthly COBRA Payment”). The Monthly COBRA Payment shall be payable in equal monthly installments over the Continuation Period (as defined below) in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices, provided that the Eligible Employee has executed and returned the Severance Agreement and Release that becomes irrevocable on or before the 60th day following the Severance Date.

(b)Equity Awards; Performance-Based Awards.

(i)All outstanding, unvested Equity Awards granted prior to the Change in Control will accelerate and vest in full as of the Eligible Employee’s Severance Date.

The number of shares underlying the performance-based equity award that shall vest and be earned will be the number of shares assuming the Company’s achievement of the target performance level.

2.2280G Payments. If Independent Tax Counsel (as herein defined) determines that the aggregate payments and benefits provided or to be provided to an Eligible Employee pursuant to this Plan, and any other payments and benefits provided or to be provided to the Eligible Employee from the Company or any of its Affiliates or any successors thereto constitute “parachute payments” as defined in Section 280G of the Code (or any successor provision thereto) (“Parachute Payments”) that would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then, except as otherwise provided in the next sentence, such Parachute Payments shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that no portion thereof shall be subject to the Excise Tax. If Independent Tax Counsel determines that the Eligible Employee would receive in the aggregate greater payments and benefits on an after tax basis if the Parachute Payments were not reduced pursuant to this Section 2.2, then no such reduction shall be made. The determination of the Independent Tax Counsel under this Section 2.2 shall be final and binding on all parties hereto. The Company shall reduce or eliminate the Parachute Payments as follows: (i) only from Parachute Payments that may be characterized as “parachute payments” under Section 280G of the Code; (ii) only from Parachute Payments that are required to be made in cash, (iii) only with respect to any amounts that are not payable pursuant to a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” subject to Code Section 409A, until those payments have been reduced to zero, and (iv) in reverse chronological order, to the extent that any Parachute Payments subject to reduction are made over time (e.g., in installments). In no event, however, shall any Parachute Payments be reduced if and to the extent such reduction would cause a violation of Code Section 409A or other applicable law. For purposes of this Section 2.2, “Independent Tax Counsel” shall mean an attorney, a certified public accountant with a nationally recognized accounting firm, or a compensation consultant with a nationally recognized actuarial and benefits consulting firm with expertise in the area of employee compensation tax law, who shall be selected by the Company and shall be acceptable to the Eligible Employee (the Eligible Employee’s acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld), and whose fees and disbursements shall be paid by the Company.

6

2.3Recoupment and Forfeiture of Severance. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, if it is determined by the Company that an Eligible Employee has violated the Company’s code of conduct or code of ethics or violated any restrictive covenants contained in the Severance Agreement and Release or any other restrictive covenants contained in any other Company plan or program or agreement between the Company and the Eligible Employee, the Eligible Employee shall be required to repay to the Company an amount equal to the economic value of all amounts already paid or provided to the Eligible Employee under the Plan and the Eligible Employee shall forfeit all other entitlements under the Plan. Additional forfeiture provisions may apply under the Plan or other agreements between the Eligible Employee and the Company, and any such forfeiture provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

Section 3. PLAN ADMINISTRATION.

3.1The Plan Administrator shall administer the Plan and shall have the full, discretionary authority to (a) construe and interpret the Plan, (b) adopt amendments to the Plan which are deemed necessary or desirable to bring the Plan in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, including without limitation, Code Section 409A and the regulations thereunder, (c) prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations necessary or desirable for the proper and effective administration of the Plan, (d) prescribe, amend, modify and waive the various forms and documents to be used in connection with the operation of the Plan and also the times for giving any notice required by the Plan, and (e) make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan.

3.2The Plan Administrator may delegate any of its duties hereunder to such person or persons from time to time as it may designate, with the exception of duties relating to Eligible Employees whom are subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

3.3The Plan Administrator is empowered, on behalf of the Plan, to engage accountants, legal counsel and such other personnel as it deems necessary or advisable to assist it in the performance of its duties under the Plan. The functions of any such persons engaged by the Plan Administrator shall be limited to the specified services and duties for which they are engaged, and such persons shall have no other duties, obligations or responsibilities under the Plan. Such persons shall exercise no discretionary authority or discretionary control respecting the management of the Plan. All reasonable expenses thereof shall be borne by the Company.

7

3.4Unless such requirement is waived pursuant to Section 3.1, the Plan Administrator shall promptly provide the Severance Agreement and Release to an Eligible Employee who becomes eligible for a payment and benefits under Section 2.1 and shall require an executed Severance Agreement and Release to be returned to the Plan Administrator within no more than forty-five (45) days (or such shorter time period as the Plan Administrator may impose, subject to compliance with applicable law) from the Severance Date. Unless such requirement is waived under Section 3.1, if the Eligible Employee does not execute and return the Severance Agreement and Release to the Plan Administrator within the specified time period, he or she will not be entitled to any payments or benefits under the Plan.

Section 4. SUCCESSOR TO COMPANY. The Plan shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors. The Company shall require any corporation, entity, individual or other person who is the successor (whether direct or indirect by purchase, merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise) to all or substantially all the business and/or assets of the Company to expressly assume and agree to perform, by a written agreement in form and in substance satisfactory to the Company, all of the obligations of the Company under the Plan.

Section 5. DURATION, AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION.

5.1Duration. Subject to the provisions of Section 5.2, the Plan shall terminate two (2) years from the Effective Date (the “Expiration Date”) unless (a) the Plan is extended by the Board or (b) the Board terminates the Plan.

5.2Amendment or Termination. Subject to the provisions of this Section 5.2, the Board shall have the discretionary authority to amend the Plan in any respect, including as to the removal or addition of Eligible Employees, at any time; provided that an amendment that is adverse to the interests of an Eligible Employee (except for an amendment to which the adversely affected Eligible Employee consents) shall not be effective until the date that is twelve (12) months following the date of such amendment, and if a Change in Control occurs during such twelve (12)-month period, such amendment shall not become effective. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board shall have the discretion and authority to amend the Plan at any time in accordance with Section 6. The Board shall have the discretionary authority to suspend or terminate the Plan at any time prior to the Expiration Date, provided that no such suspension or termination shall become effective until the date that is twelve (12) months following the date of such suspension or termination. If a Change in Control occurs while the Plan is in effect, the Plan (i) may not be amended, suspended or terminated on or following the date such Change in Control occurs, (ii) shall continue in full force and effect for at least two (2) years following the date such Change in Control occurs, and (iii) shall not terminate or expire until after all Eligible Employees who become entitled to any payments or benefits hereunder shall have received such payments and benefits in full.

8

5.3Procedure for Extension, Amendment or Termination. Any extension, amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan by the Board in accordance with this Section 5 shall be made by action of the Board in accordance with the Company’s charter and by-laws and applicable law.

Section 6. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

6.1Code Section 409A.

(a)         If any provision of this Plan (or of any payment of compensation, including benefits) would cause an Eligible Employee to incur any additional tax or interest under Code Section 409A or any regulations or Treasury guidance promulgated thereunder, the Company shall, after consulting with the Eligible Employee, reform such provision to comply with Code Section 409A; provided that the Company agrees to make only such changes as are necessary to bring such provisions into compliance with Code Section 409A and to maintain, to the maximum extent practicable, the original intent and economic benefit to the Eligible Employee of the applicable provision without violating the provisions of Code Section 409A.

(b)         Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Plan, if an Eligible Employee is deemed on the Severance Date to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is required to be delayed in compliance with Section 409A(a)(2)(B) such payment or benefit shall not be made or provided (subject to the last sentence hereof) prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the date of the Eligible Employee’s “separation from service” (as such term is defined in Treasury Regulations issued under Code Section 409A) or (ii) the date of his or her death (the “Deferral Period”). Upon the expiration of the Deferral Period, all payments and benefits deferred pursuant to this Section 6.1(b) (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such deferral) shall be paid or reimbursed to the Eligible Employee in a lump sum, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Plan shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein.

(c)         If and to the extent required to comply with Code Section 409A, no payment or benefit required to be paid under this Plan on account of termination of an Eligible Employee’s employment shall be made unless and until the Eligible Employee incurs a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A.

(d)         For purposes of applying the provisions of Code Section 409A to this Plan, each separately identified amount to which the Eligible Employee is entitled under this Plan shall be treated as a separate payment. In addition, to the extent permissible under Code Section 409A, any series of installment payments under this Plan shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments.

9

(e)         Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company does not make any representation to any Eligible Employee that the payments or benefits provided under this Plan are exempt from, or satisfy, the requirements of Code Section 409A, and the Company shall have no liability or other obligation to indemnify or hold harmless any Eligible Employee or any beneficiary of any Eligible Employee for any tax, additional tax, interest or penalties that any Eligible Employee or any beneficiary of any Eligible Employee may incur in the event that any provision of this Plan, or any amendment or modification thereof, or any other action taken with respect thereto, is deemed to violate any of the requirements of Code Section 409A.

6.2No Assignment of Benefits. Except as otherwise provided herein or by law, no right or interest of any Eligible Employee under the Plan shall be assignable or transferable, in whole or in part, either directly or by operation of law or otherwise, including, without limitation, by execution, levy, garnishment, attachment, pledge or in any manner; no attempted assignment or transfer thereof shall be effective; and no right or interest of any Eligible Employee under the Plan shall be liable for, or subject to, any obligation or liability of such Eligible Employee. When a payment is due under this Plan to a Severed Employee who is unable to care for his or her affairs, payment may be made directly to his or her legal guardian or personal representative.

6.3No Right to Continued Service. Neither the establishment of the Plan, nor any modification thereof, nor the creation of any fund, trust or account, nor the payment of any benefits shall be construed as giving any Eligible Employee, or any person whomsoever, the right to be retained in the service of the Employer, and all Eligible Employees shall remain subject to discharge to the same extent as if the Plan had never been adopted.

6.4Notice Period. If an Employer is obligated by law, contract, policy or otherwise to pay severance, a termination indemnity, notice pay, or the like, or if an Employer is obligated by law to provide advance notice of separation (“Notice Period”), then any Severance Payment hereunder shall be reduced, if and to the extent permitted under Code Section 409A, by the amount of any such severance pay, termination indemnity, notice pay or the like, as applicable, and by the amount of any compensation received during any Notice Period.

6.5No Duty to Mitigate. A Severed Employee shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in this Plan by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.1(a)(iv), shall the amount of any payment or benefit provided for in this Plan be reduced by any compensation earned by such a Severed Employee as a result of employment by another employer after the Severance Date or otherwise.

6.6Withholding. An Employer shall be entitled to withhold from amounts to be paid to the Severed Employee hereunder any U.S. or foreign federal, state, local or foreign withholding or other taxes or charges which it reasonably believes it is required to withhold.

10

6.7Successors. This Plan shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns of the parties, including, without limitation, each Eligible Employee, present and future, and any successor to the Employer. If a Severed Employee shall die while any amount would still be payable to such Severed Employee under the Plan if the Severed Employee had continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Plan to the executor, personal representative or administrators of the Severed Employee’s estate.

6.8Severability. If any provision of this Plan shall be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions hereof, and this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such provisions had not been included.

6.9Plan is Unfunded. The Plan shall not be funded. No Eligible Employee shall have any right to, or interest in, any assets of any Employer which may be applied by the Employer to the payment of benefits or other rights under this Plan.

6.10Notice. Any notice or other communication required or permitted pursuant to the terms hereof shall be in writing and shall be given when delivered or mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the intended recipient at his, her or its last known address. A written notice of an Eligible Employee’s Severance Date by the Company or the Eligible Employee, as the case may be, to the other shall (a) indicate the specific termination provision of the Plan that is being relied upon; (b) to the extent applicable, set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Eligible Employee’s employment under the provision so indicated and (c) specify the termination date (which date, in the case of a termination by the Eligible Employee for Good Reason, shall be not less than thirty (30), and in all other cases shall be not less than fifteen (15) days nor more than sixty (60) days after the giving of such notice). The failure by the Company or the Eligible Employee to provide such notice or to set forth in such notice any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of Good Reason or Cause shall not waive any right of the Company or the Eligible Employee hereunder or preclude the Company or Eligible Employee from asserting such fact or circumstance in enforcing the Company’s or the Eligible Employee’s rights hereunder.

6.11No Right to Other Benefits. Nothing in the Plan shall require the Employer to provide any payment that duplicates any payment, benefit, or grant that an Eligible Employee is entitled to receive under any Employer compensation or benefit plan, award agreement, or other arrangement. Any severance benefit provided under any Employer compensation or benefit plan, award agreement, or other arrangement shall offset, on a dollar for dollar basis, any benefits owed under the Plan. The amounts paid or provided under the Plan shall not be treated as compensation for purposes of determining any benefits payable under any Employer retirement, life insurance, or other employee benefit plan unless otherwise required by the terms of the plan or local law.

11

6.12 Plan Conflicts/Integration. Except to the extent explicitly provided in this Plan, any awards made under any Employer compensation or benefit plan or program shall be governed by the terms of that plan or program and any applicable award agreement thereunder as in effect from time to time. The Plan, as amended from time to time, constitutes the entire agreement between the Company and any Eligible Employee concerning the subject matter hereof and supersedes in its entirety any and all plans, agreements and understandings related to the subject matter hereof except as otherwise stated in this Section 6.12 or the Plan.

6.13Governing Law. This Plan shall be construed and enforced according to the laws of the State of Rhode Island (not including any Rhode Island law that would require the substantive law of another jurisdiction to apply), to the extent not preempted by federal law, which shall otherwise control.

6.14ERISA. Because the Plan is not intended to provide retirement income or result in the systematic deferral of income to termination of employment, the Plan is intended to be an “employee welfare benefit plan” within the meaning of Section 3(1) of the ERISA, and not an “employee pension benefit plan” within the meaning of Section 3(2) of ERISA. However, to the extent that the Plan (without regard to this Section 6.14) is determined to be an “employee pension benefit plan” because (a) with respect to certain participants the Plan provides for payments in excess of the amount specified in 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-2(b) (the “Severance Pay Regulation”) and (b) the facts and circumstances indicate the Plan (without regard to this Section 6.14) is not otherwise an “employee welfare benefit plan,” then the following provisions shall apply: The Plan shall be treated as two plans, one of which provides the benefits required by Section 2 not in excess of the safe harbor described in the Severance Pay Regulation and the other of which provides for all other payments and benefits required by Section 2 pursuant to a plan maintained “primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation to a select group of management or highly compensated employees” as described in Section 201(2) of ERISA.

12

6.15Claim Review Process. In the event of a claim for benefits hereunder by an Eligible Employee, such Eligible Employee shall present the reason for his or her claim in writing to the Plan Administrator as set forth in Section 6.10. The Plan Administrator shall, within ninety (90) days after receipt of such written claim (unless special circumstances require an extension of time, but in no event more than one hundred eighty (180) days after such receipt), send a written notification to the Eligible Employee as to the Plan Administrator’s determination of the claim. In the event the claim is wholly or partially denied, such written notification shall (a) state the specific reason or reasons for the denial, (b) make specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is based, (c) provide a description of any additional material or information necessary for the Eligible Employee to perfect the claim and an explanation of why such material or information is necessary, and (d) set forth the procedure by which the Eligible Employee may appeal the denial of his or her claim, including, without limitation, a statement of the claimant’s right to bring an action under Section 502(a) of ERISA, following an adverse determination on appeal. In the event an Eligible Employee wishes to perfect the claim and/or appeal the denial of his or her claim, he or she must request a review of such denial by making application in writing to the Plan Administrator within sixty (60) days after receipt of such denial. Such Eligible Employee (or his or her duly authorized legal representative), upon written request to the Plan Administrator, shall be permitted to review any documents pertinent to his or her claim, and submit in writing, issues and comments in support of his or her position. Within sixty (60) days after receipt of a written appeal (unless special circumstances, such as the need to hold a hearing, require an extension of time, but in no event more than one hundred twenty (120) days after such receipt), the Plan Administrator shall notify the Eligible Employee of the final decision. The final decision shall be in writing and shall include (i) specific reasons for the decision, written in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant, (ii) specific references to the pertinent Plan provisions on which the decision is based, (iii) a statement that the claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents relevant to the claim for benefits, and (iv) a statement describing the claimant’s right to bring an action under Section 502(a) of ERISA. No legal action for benefits under the Plan may be brought in any forum until the Eligible Employee has brought a claim for benefits under the Plan and exhausted the remedies set forth in this Section 6.15. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Plan Administrator does not respond to the Eligible Employees claim or appeal within the relevant time periods set forth above, the Eligible Employee’s claim is deemed to be denied and the Eligible Employee can proceed with a legal action for benefits.

PRESS RELEASE  

SUMR Brands Reports 2021 Fourth Quarter Results

Transaction with Kids2 Approved by Company’s Board of Directors;

Closing Expected Second Quarter

WOONSOCKET, R.I., March 16, 2022 – SUMR Brands ("SUMR Brands" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: SUMR), a global leader in premium infant and juvenile products, today announced financial results for the fiscal fourth quarter ended January 1, 2022.

Recent Highlights

• The Company announced today that it had reached a definitive merger agreement with Kids2, Inc. (“Kids2”) pursuant to which Kids2 will acquire, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, all issued and outstanding common stock of SUMR for $12.00 cash per share; the transaction has been unanimously approved by the Company’s Board of Directors

• Net sales were $35.3 million in the fourth quarter versus $36.0 million in the prior-year period, as ongoing supply chain constraints impacted the Company’s ability to meet demand; however, SUMR saw continued growth across its ecommerce channels, helping to mitigate the impact of shipment delays while supporting pandemic-related shopping trends

• SUMR reported a net loss of $4.8 million, or $(2.20) per share, for the fourth quarter of 2021 compared with a net loss of $3.4 million, or $(1.59) per share, in the prior-year period, reflecting supply chain inefficiencies; the 2021 fourth quarter included a $1.5 million valuation allowance on its deferred tax asset, while the 2020 fourth quarter included a $1.8 million debt extinguishment charge related to the Company’s refinancing and a $0.7 million impairment charge

• Adjusted EBITDA was negative $2.0 million in the 2021 fourth quarter versus $1.4 million in the prior-year period

• After the end of the quarter, in January 2022, the Company reached an agreement with Wynnefield Capital for a subordinate term loan of up to $5 million, providing additional liquidity and financial flexibility

“The fourth quarter of 2021 continued to be challenging across a number of fronts, with supply chain constraints and higher material costs negatively impacting our ability to meet demand and maintain margins,” said Stuart Noyes, CEO. “In general, things did not improve as we had hoped, and such conditions have remained as we begin fiscal 2022. Elevated container rates, demurrage, and related logistics expense, along with air freight – to better serve customers – have been constant headwinds against our efforts to efficiently manage supply. Working capital has also been under pressure due to the need for increased inventory and elongated transit times.

“While seeing strong demand for many of our products, we have entered into an agreement to sell SUMR to Kids2 to unlock value for shareholders. This will ensure the future of our successful, innovative products within a competitive landscape and uncertain supply chain environment. In the meantime, we are grateful for the support and near-term financial flexibility provided by Wynnefield, our largest shareholder.”

Fourth Quarter Results

Net sales for the three months ended January 1, 2022 were $35.3 million compared with $36.0 million for the three months ended January 2, 2021, with the slight decrease year-over-year primarily reflecting ongoing supply chain disruptions. While the Company often faced challenges meeting overall demand, revenue across several key product categories rose year-over-year, including potties, bathers, strollers, and boosters. Sales shifted to ecommerce channels during the quarter, with Amazon revenue up over 30% year-over-year.

Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $7.3 million versus $10.8 million in 2020, while gross margin was 20.6% versus 30.0% last year. The margin decline largely reflects increases in transportation and raw material costs related to the aforementioned supply chain constraints.

Selling expense was $2.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2021 versus $2.6 million in 2020, and selling expense as a percent of net sales was 7.9% versus 7.2% last year. The increase year-over-year and as a percent of sales was primarily due to higher freight-out costs (accounted for as selling expense).

General and administrative expenses were $7.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, or 21.9% of net sales, versus $7.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2020, or 21.1% of net sales. The year-over-year change reflects higher distribution center costs as well as increases in customer-related chargebacks as a result of order cuts when demand could not be met. Interest expense was $0.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2021 versus $0.5 million in 2020.

The Company reported a net loss of $4.8 million, or $(2.20) per share, in the fourth quarter of 2021 compared with a net loss of $3.4 million, or $(1.59) per share, in the prior-year period. The 2020 fourth quarter included a $1.8 million debt extinguishment charge related to refinancing the Company’s credit facilities and a $0.7 million impairment charge associated with dissolving an Israeli subsidiary. The Company recorded a tax provision of $0.6 million in the fiscal 2021 fourth quarter, which included a $1.5 million valuation allowance on its deferred tax asset, versus a provision of $0.2 million in the comparable period of fiscal 2020.

Adjusted EBITDA, as defined in the Company’s credit agreements, for the fourth quarter of 2021 was negative $2.0 million versus $1.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2020, and Adjusted EBITDA as a percent of net sales was (5.8)% in 2021 versus 3.9% last year.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

This release and the referenced webcast include presentations of non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net loss and adjusted loss per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA means earnings before interest and taxes plus depreciation, amortization, non-cash stock-based compensation expenses and other items added back, as permitted by the Company’s credit agreements and detailed in the reconciliation table included in this release. Non-GAAP adjusted net loss and adjusted loss per diluted share means net (loss) plus unamortized financing fees and other items added back, as permitted by the Company’s credit agreements, adjustments related to changes in tax valuation allowances due to the application of the CARES Act, as well as the tax impact of these items, as detailed in the reconciliation table included in this release. Such information is supplemental to information presented in accordance with GAAP and is not intended to represent a presentation in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors to better understand, on a period-to-period comparable basis, financial amounts both including and excluding these identified items, as they indicate more clearly the Company’s operations and its ability to meet capital expenditure and working capital requirements. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to such GAAP measures as net income, cash flows provided by or used in operating, investing or financing activities or other financial statement data presented in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as an indicator of financial performance or liquidity. The Company provides reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures in its press releases of historical performance. Because these measures are not determined in accordance with GAAP and are susceptible to varying calculations, these non-GAAP measures, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this release that are not historical fact may be deemed “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the Company intends that such forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbor created thereby. These statements are accompanied by words such as “anticipate,” “expect,” “project,” “will,” “believes,” “estimate” and similar expressions, and include statements regarding the Company’s expectations regarding ongoing supply chain and logistics challenges in 2022 and the pending acquisition of the Company by Kids2, Inc.. The Company cautions that these statements are qualified by important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s supply chain and consumer demand, U.S. operations and sales in the U.S.; the Company’s reliance on foreign suppliers and potential disruption in foreign markets in which it operates; potential global supply chain disruption and increased costs of freight and transportation; potential increases in the cost of raw materials used to manufacture the Company’s products; increased tariffs, additional tariffs or import or export taxes on the cost of its products and therefore demand for its products; the Company’s ability to meet its liquidity requirements; the Company’s ability to comply with the covenants in its loan agreement and to maintain availability under its loan agreement; the Company’s ability to implement and to achieve the expected benefits and savings of its restructuring initiatives; the concentration of the Company’s business with retail customers; the ability of the Company to compete in its industry; the Company’s ability to continue to control costs and expenses; the Company’s ability to develop, market and launch new products; the Company’s ability to manage inventory levels and meet customer demand; the Company’s ability to grow sales with existing and new customers and in new channels; and other risks as detailed in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
