Narrative to Summary Compensation Table

Interim Investment Management Agreement

Following its emergence from bankruptcy in June 2010, the Company entered into the Interim Management Agreement with SCA, pursuant to which SCA acted as the management adviser to the Company and managed the Company’s assets, subject to the supervision of the Board. SCA is a management company that is owned and managed by Mr. Noell, our former Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Grossman, our former President, and Mr. Ross, our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.

During the second quarter of 2011, the Board undertook an evaluation of its external management structure with SCA and explored alternative management structures that were available to the Company. At the conclusion of the evaluation, the Company terminated the Interim Management Agreement effective July 31, 2011 (the “Termination Date”). Under the terms of the Interim Management Agreement, the Board was permitted to terminate the agreement at any time, without the payment of any penalty, upon 60 days’ written notice to SCA (the “Advance Notice Requirement”). In connection with the termination of the Interim Management Agreement, SCA and the Company agreed that: (i) the Advance Notice Requirement would be waived; (ii) the Company’s obligation to pay the management fee pursuant to the Interim Management Agreement terminated as of the Termination Date and that the management fee payable to SCA for services provided in July 2011 excluded the

6

monthly compensation payments for Craig Noell, Kenneth Grossman and Kyle Ross, each of whom entered into the Employment Agreements; and (iii) the terms and conditions of the Interim Management Agreement were terminated and of no further force or effect as of the Termination Date, except for the limitation of liability and indemnification provision, which remains in full force and effect.

As a result of the termination of the Interim Management Agreement, the Company adopted an internal management structure, which included the Company entering into the Employment Agreements with each of Messrs. Noell, Grossman and Ross. The terms of the Employment Agreements were based on analysis and recommendations from a nationally recognized executive compensation consulting firm. In addition, all other SCA employees became employees of the Company as of August 1, 2011.

Employment Agreements

On August 2, 2011, the Company entered into the Employment Agreements with each of the named executive officers, Messrs. Noell, Grossman and Ross (each, a “Named Executive” and collectively, the “Named Executives”). The Employment Agreements provided that the Named Executives will serve the Company in the following capacities: Mr. Noell as Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Grossman as President, and Mr. Ross as Executive Vice President. Mr. Grossman resigned as President effective April 30, 2012. Mr. Noell resigned as Chief Executive Officer in April 2013. The term of each Employment Agreement began on July 1, 2011 and, unless terminated earlier pursuant to the terms of their respective Employment Agreements, will terminate on December 31, 2013. The initial base salaries of the Named Executives were as follows: Mr. Noell — $325,000; Mr. Grossman — $300,000; and Mr. Ross — $275,000. Each Named Executive was also eligible to participate in the Company’s executive bonus program then in effect; provided, however, that the Fiscal 2012 bonus pool available under such program would not be less than 7.5% of the Company’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, with such bonus pool and specific bonuses to be determined by mutual agreement of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Board. During the term of their respective Employment Agreements, the Named Executives are eligible to participate in all employee benefit plans, programs or arrangements, generally made available to the Company’s senior executives, including, but not limited to, medical, dental and vision plans.

Pursuant to their respective Employment Agreements and subject to the terms of the Incentive Plan and their respective award agreements, the Named Executives were granted awards of restricted stock and options to acquire common stock on August 8, 2011 (the “Award Date”) as follows: Mr. Noell — 492,224 shares of restricted stock and 2,923,000 options to acquire common stock; Mr. Grossman — 492,224 shares of restricted stock and 2,923,000 options to acquire common stock; and Mr. Ross — 416,667 shares of restricted stock and 1,620,000 options to acquire common stock. Subject to such terms and conditions as are set forth in their respective award agreements, each Named Executive’s shares of restricted stock will vest on December 31, 2013 and each Named Executive’s options to acquire common stock will vest as follows: (i) 25% on the six month anniversary of the Award Date; (ii) 25% on the eighteen month anniversary of the Award Date; (iii) 25% on the thirty month anniversary of the Award Date; and (iv) 25% on July 1, 2015, with this final tranche subject to our common stock achieving certain trading prices as of such date. The final tranche may vest early on January 1, 2014 for each Named Executive if their respective Employment Agreements are not renewed as of January 1, 2014 and our common stock has achieved certain trading prices as of such date. On December 6, 2011, the Company and Mr. Grossman modified the vesting schedule of his stock option agreement to extend the vesting of the first tranche of options to acquire common stock to coincide with the vesting of the second tranche of options to acquire common stock on the eighteen month anniversary of the Award Date. The options to acquire common stock have a term of ten years and an exercise price of $0.57 per share, subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms of the Incentive Plan. The vesting of the restricted stock and the options to acquire common stock will be accelerated in full upon a “change in control” (as such term is defined in their respective award agreements, a “change in control event”).

In the event of a Named Executive’s termination of employment (i) by reason of death or disability, (ii) by the Company at any time for “cause,” or (iii) by the Named Executive without a “change in control” event, such Named

7

Executive’s Employment Agreement will terminate and the Named Executive will receive from the Company: (a) any earned but unpaid base salary through the date of termination; (b) reimbursement of any unreimbursed expenses properly incurred and paid through the date of termination; (c) payment of any accrued but unused vacation time in accordance with Company policy; and (d) such vested accrued benefits, and other benefits and/or payments, if any, as to which the Named Executive (and his eligible dependents) may be entitled under, and in accordance with the terms and conditions of, the employee benefit arrangements, plans and programs of the Company as of the date of termination other than any severance payment plan ((a) though (d), the “Amounts and Benefits”).

In the event of a Named Executive’s termination of employment (i) by the Company without “cause” (other than a termination by reason of death or disability) or (ii) by the Named Executive within the 90-day period following the occurrence of a change in control event, then the Company will pay or provide the Named Executive the Amounts and Benefits and, subject to the Named Executive executing and not revoking a waiver and general release in a form acceptable to the Company, an amount equal to two times the Named Executive’s base salary in effect as of the date of termination, paid in equal installments on the Company’s normal payroll dates over a period of two years from the date of termination in accordance with the usual payroll practices of the Company. In addition, in the event that the Named Executive properly elects to continue health benefit coverage under COBRA, the Named Executive shall only be responsible to pay the active employee rate for such coverage (the “subsidized rate”) for so long as the Named Executive remains eligible to receive COBRA continuation coverage and for so long as the subsidized rate is permissible by law and/or would not result in a penalty. If a Named Executive’s employment is terminated in connection with or following the occurrence of a change in control event, the aforementioned severance payments will be subject to reduction pursuant to Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Tax Code”).

The Employment Agreements also contain provisions requiring the Named Executives not to solicit the Company’s employees or its customers or clients for a period of one year following their termination.

Annual Bonus

For Fiscal 2012, discretionary bonuses were paid to the named executive officers in the following amounts: Mr. Noell — $108,388 in cash and 67,641 shares of common stock; Mr. Grossman — $0; and Mr. Ross — $91,713 in cash and 57,234 shares of common stock.

401(k) Saving Plan

In Fiscal 2012, the Company implemented a 401(k) savings plan (the “Savings Plan”) under which all full-time employees, including the named executive officers, are eligible to participate. Employee contributions are limited to the maximum amount allowed by the Tax Code. The Company matches 100% of each employee contribution to the Savings Plan, up to a maximum match of 4% of each employee’s cash compensation.

Kenneth Grossman Consulting Agreement

On February 8, 2012, Kenneth S. Grossman informed the Company of his intention to resign as the Company’s President, which became effective on April 30, 2012. On February 8, 2012, Mr. Grossman and the Company entered into the Consulting Agreement, which provides for Mr. Grossman to advise the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and identify acquisition and capital deployment opportunities for the Company. The Consulting Agreement has a term of twenty-four (24) months with a monthly fee of $25,000 and the possibility of additional incentive fees. The Consulting Agreement also provides for the non-qualified stock options and restricted stock previously granted to Mr. Grossman to, notwithstanding his resignation, continue to vest pursuant to the vesting schedules provided for in the non-qualified stock option agreement, as amended, and the restricted stock award agreement previously entered into by Mr. Grossman with the Company. In addition, the Consulting Agreement includes mutual releases by the Company and Mr. Grossman of claims and causes of action that either party may have against the other, which are in any way connected with Mr. Grossman’s employment

8

relationship with or separation from the Company, but not including any claim or right that Mr. Grossman may have to seek indemnity from the Company. Further, Mr. Grossman agreed not to engage in or assist in any litigation against the Company relating to anything that occurred prior to the effective date of the Consulting Agreement, except as may be necessary to comply with applicable law.

Craig Noell Separation Agreement

Craig Noell resigned as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer in April 2013 and Mr. Noell and the Company entered into a Separation Agreement and General Release (the “Separation Agreement”) on April 11, 2013. Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, in connection with his resignation, Mr. Noell will be entitled to the benefits that would have been provided to him under his Employment Agreement in the event of a termination without “cause” by the Company, including (i) the payment of severance equal to two times his base salary in effect as of the date of termination, paid over a period of two years from the date of termination in accordance with the usual payroll practices of the Company, (ii) the continued vesting of his options to acquire common stock and restricted stock awards, and (iii) the reimbursement of COBRA premiums for as long as he remains eligible to receive such continuation coverage.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

Director Independence

Based on information supplied to it by the directors, the Board determined that each of Messrs. Koral, Lamb and Tinkler are “independent” under both the rules of the New York Stock Exchange and the NASDAQ Stock Market. The Board made such determinations based on the fact that such directors have not had, and currently do not have, any material relationship with the Company or its affiliates or any executive officer of the Company or their affiliates that would impair their independence, including, without limitation, any commercial, industrial, banking, consulting, legal, accounting, charitable or familial relationship. Mr. Colville was determined to have been independent under such rules prior to April 2013, when he assumed his current role as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

Since January 1, 2011, except as described in Part III, Item 11 of this Annual Report, there has not been, nor is there any proposed transaction, where we (or any of our subsidiaries) were or will be a party in which the amount involved exceeded or will exceed the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of the Company’s total assets at year end for the last two fiscal years and in which any director, executive officer, holder of more than 5% of any class of our voting securities, or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.
