Independent Auditors’ Report
Board of Directors
Harry & David Holdings, Inc.
Medford, Oregon
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Harry & David Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries, which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the year ended June 29, 2013 (Successor), and for the periods from September 13, 2011 through June 30, 2012 (Successor), and June 26, 2011 through September 12, 2011 (Predecessor), and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidencewehave obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Harry & David Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year ended June 29, 2013 and for the periods from September 13, 2011 through June 30, 2012 (Successor), and June 26, 2011 through September 12, 2011 (Predecessor ), in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Emphasis of Matter
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, effective September 13, 2011, the Company emerged from bankruptcy and applied fresh-start accounting. As a result, the statements of consolidated operations and cash flows for the periods subsequent to September 12, 2011 are presented on a different basis than that for the periods before fresh-start accounting and, therefore not comparable. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.
Other Matter
This report is intended solely for the benefit and use of Harry & David Holdings, Inc. and is not intended to be and should not be relied upon by any other party for any reason.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012
Harry & David Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries (“we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”) is a vertically integrated multi-channel specialty retailer and producer of branded premium gift-quality fruit, food products and gifts marketed under the Harry & David®, Wolferman’s® and Cushman’s® brands. The Company markets its products through catalogs distributed through the mail, the Internet, business-to-business, consumer telemarketing, Harry & David Stores, a Cushman’s seasonal store and wholesale distribution to other retailers. As of June 29, 2013, the Company operated 49 retail stores in 25 states.
Sales of the Company’s products are subject to, among other things, a variety of agricultural risks (including extreme weather conditions), fuel and energy price fluctuations, and regulation and inspection by various governmental agencies. The Company’s business has substantial seasonality and a significant portion of the Company’s annual net sales are recognized during the holiday selling season from mid-November through December. Accordingly, operating results and financial conditions are highly dependent on the ripening of seasonal fruits, which, if delayed, can cause delays in product shipments, and on consumer demand during our critical holiday selling season.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2011, our operating performance and cash flows were significantly below expectations and, as a result, we violated certain covenants relating to our revolving line of credit as of December 31, 2010. In early 2011, the Company closed 56 underperforming retail stores and began to explore various restructuring alternatives.
On March 28, 2011, Harry & David Holdings, Inc., and its subsidiaries, Harry and David (now known as Harry and David, LLC), Harry & David Operations, Inc. and Bear Creek Orchards, Inc. (collectively, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The Debtors’ Second Amended and Restated Plan of Reorganization ("the Plan") was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court on August 29, 2011, and the effective date of the Plan and the Company’s emergence from bankruptcy was September 13, 2011 (the "Effective Date"). On December 27, 2012, the Court entered the Final Decree closing the Debtors' Chapter 11 Cases. See Note 5, “Chapter 11 Cases and Emergence,” for further discussion of the details of our bankruptcy cases, related costs, the terms and conditions of the Plan and the applicability of fresh start accounting.
Liquidity
Consumer spending patterns for our merchandise are difficult to predict and are highly sensitive to the general economic climate, the consumer's level of disposable income, consumer debt and overall consumer confidence. Consumer demand for our merchandise is difficult to forecast given the nature of changing consumer preferences, which can vary by season and from one geographic region to another. Declines in consumer spending could reduce our revenues, gross margins, earnings and liquidity. If the demand for our merchandise is lower than expected, we will be forced to discount more merchandise, which would reduce our gross margins, earnings and liquidity. We experience a significant proportion of our annual sales activity during the holiday selling season between the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. If our sales during this period are below our expectations, they can significantly affect our revenues and expenses. Accordingly, changing economic conditions or deviations from expected demand for our products during the holiday selling season could have a material adverse effect on our financial results and liquidity.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012
In connection with the Company’s Chapter 11 filing, on March 29, 2011, the Company entered into a $100.0 million revolving line of credit (the "DIP ABL Facility"). Upon emergence from bankruptcy on the Effective Date, the DIP ABL Facility was replaced by a $100.0 million senior secured financing facility (the "Exit Facility"), which was secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries and matures on September 12, 2014. The maximum available borrowing under the Exit Facility was determined in accordance with an asset-based formula, which prevented the Company from accessing the Exit Facility from January to June. We used the Exit Facility to finance increases in working capital from July through early December. The Exit Facility also contained a number of restrictive covenants. In the event the Company did not comply with these covenants, its ability to borrow under the Exit Facility would be restricted. Among other provisions, the Exit Facility contained covenants which (i) required us to repay the outstanding amount in full on December 26 of each year and (ii) required us to maintain an "Available Cash Balance" (defined as cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments, minus accounts payable) of at least $50.0 million as of December 31 of each year. If the Company did not have an Available Cash Balance of at least $50.0 million as of that date, the Company was required to satisfy a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. As discussed under Note 17, “Subsequent Events,” on September 4, 2013, the Company replaced the Exit Facility with the New Credit Facility (as hereinafter defined). As of June 29, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all Exit Facility covenants.
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements include the consolidated results of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and activity are eliminated from the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”).
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The estimates and assumptions are evaluated on an ongoing basis and are based on historical experiences and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
The Company’s fiscal year ends the last Saturday in June, based on a 52/53 week fiscal year. Fiscal 2012 began on June 26, 2011, and ended on June 30, 2012; fiscal 2012 was a 53-week year. Fiscal 2013 began on July 1, 2012, and ended on June 29, 2013; fiscal 2013 was a 52-week year.
As required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 852, “Reorganization,” which is applicable to entities emerging from Chapter 11, fresh start accounting was applied resulting in a new basis of accounting. Therefore, the periods prior to and subsequent to the emergence from bankruptcy are presented separately and labeled “Predecessor” and “Successor,” respectively. In addition, the Predecessor financial information contained in this report is restated to include the fresh start accounting effects that were recorded in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The estimates and assumptions are evaluated on an ongoing basis and are based on historical experiences and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012
Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, certain accrued liabilities, capital lease obligations, and reorganization obligations. The estimated carrying value of these instruments approximates fair value due to their short-term maturities.
Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates market value. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include third-party credit card receivables because such amounts generally convert to cash within three days with little or no default risk, as well as investments in commercial paper with a purchased maturity of 90 days or less. Third-party credit card receivables totaled $0.6 million at both June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012. Cash equivalents consist primarily of deposits at federally insured financial institutions. Deposits with these banks may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits; however, these deposits typically may be redeemed upon demand and, therefore, bear minimal risk.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable consists primarily of amounts due from customers. The Company sells its products to individuals and companies located primarily in the United States. Products sold to companies are generally on open credit terms consistent with the Company’s evaluation of customer creditworthiness. The Company generally does not require collateral. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of consolidated net sales during the fiscal year ended June 29, 2013 or the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012.
The Company conducts ongoing credit evaluations and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts to address the risk of bad debts. The Company analyzes historical bad debts, customer creditworthiness and current economic trends when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance is calculated based on the aging of our accounts receivable, the financial condition of our customers and their payment history, our historical write-off experience and other assumptions. The allowance for doubtful accounts is reviewed monthly. The Company generally writes off non-corporate accounts more than 120 days past due and when management deems that the likelihood of collection is remote.
Inventories
Direct marketing, wholesale, and growing crops inventory is valued at the lower of standard cost (which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis) or market. Stores inventory is valued at the lower of cost on a first-in, first-out basis or market using the retail inventory method. The total amount of inventory valued using the retail inventory method at June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, was $6.5 million and $6.4 million, respectively. The Company estimates a provision for damaged, obsolete, excess and slow-moving inventory based on specific identification and inventory aging reports. The Company reserves for excess and obsolete inventories in the period when excess and obsolescence are determined to have occurred.
The Company capitalizes into inventory both direct and indirect production costs. Indirect production costs include indirect labor and overhead costs related to growing, manufacturing and assembly. Costs of un-harvested crops are included in inventory and include direct labor and other expenses related to un-harvested fruit, including the amortization of orchard development costs. Fruit crop inventories are accounted for on a crop year that spans from November to October.

Deferred Catalog Expenses and Advertising Expenses
Deferred catalog expenses are incurred in connection with the direct response marketing of certain products. Catalog costs consist of creative design, photography, separations, paper, print, distribution, postage and list costs for all direct response catalogs. Such costs are capitalized as deferred catalog expenses and are amortized over their expected periods of future benefit based on the estimated sales curve of each catalog promotion. Catalog expenses are generally amortized over three to four months. However, for sales that extend up to 12 months, such as multiple club shipments, catalog expense is generally amortized up to a 12-month period.
Deferred catalog expenses are evaluated for recoverability at each reporting period by comparing the carrying amount associated with each catalog to the estimated remaining future net revenues associated with that promotion. Estimated future revenues are based on various factors such as the total number of catalogs and pages circulated, the probability and likely magnitude of consumer response and the assortment of merchandise offered. If the carrying amount is in excess of estimated future net revenues, the excess is expensed in the reporting period. Non-direct response advertising is expensed as incurred.
Total advertising expenses, which are primarily comprised of catalog expenses, totaled $47.7 million and $42.3 million for the fiscal years ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively, and are recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost. Orchard development costs, consisting of direct labor and materials, supervision, and other items, are capitalized as part of capital projects-in-process until the orchard produces fruit in commercial quantities. Upon attaining commercial levels of production, these costs are transferred to land improvements.
Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method, with estimated useful lives of the related assets as follows:
Land improvements and orchard development costs | 15-35 years |
Buildings and improvements | 10-45 years |
Machinery and equipment | 3–10 years |
Purchased and internally-developed software | 3–8 years |
Leasehold improvements | Shorter of estimated useful life or lease term |
| (generally 5–10 years; up to 20 years) |
Repair and maintenance costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
At June 29, 2013, the estimated cost to complete capital projects-in-process was approximately $1.7 million.
Internally-developed software costs are capitalized in accordance with ASC Topic 350 “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other.” As of June 29, 2013, the Company capitalized $7.4 million of internally-developed software costs, which included approximately $0.9 million in internal labor costs.
The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment. If an impairment indicator exists, recoverability of assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to undiscounted future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value, which is calculated on a discounted cash flow basis.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012
Intangible Assets
As of June 29, 2013, the Company’s intangible assets primarily consisted of trade names and customer relationships. The Harry & David trade name has an indefinite life while the Wolferman’s and Cushman’s trade names each have an estimated useful life of five years. Customer relationships have an estimated useful life of seven years. These costs are amortized on a straight-line basis.
Intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested for impairment annually, or whenever events or circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred. For the fiscal year ended June 29, 2013, impairment was evaluated using the guidance and criteria described in ASC Topic 350, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other.” The impairment testing compared carrying values to fair values, and if the carrying value of these assets is in excess of fair value, which is calculated on a discounted cash flow basis, an impairment loss would be recognized. The Company’s assessment of its Harry & David trade name concluded that its intangible assets were not impairment.
Deferred Financing Costs
Debt financing costs are deferred and amortized to interest expense using the straight-line method over the term of the related debt instrument. The straight-line method approximates the effective interest method. See Note 9, “Borrowing Arrangements.”
Deferred Rent
For leases that contain fixed escalations of the minimum annual lease payment during the original term of the lease and other lease incentives, the Company recognizes rental expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term and records the difference between rent expense and the amount that is payable as deferred rent. Deferred rent liabilities totaling $0.6 million and $0.3 million were included in other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively.
Asset Retirement Obligations
The Company has accrued for future asset retirement obligations resulting from the Company’s contractual obligation to restore a store location to its original condition upon lease termination. The accrual is estimated based on historical costs incurred to restore a previous location to its original condition after a store closure. Asset retirement obligation liabilities totaling $0.3 million were included in other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of both June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from product sales and associated shipping charges when the following four revenue recognition criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred, (iii) the selling price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.
For the Company’s direct marketing revenue and a portion of wholesale revenue, product sales and shipping revenues, net of promotional discounts, rebates, and return allowances, are recorded upon shipment. For certain wholesale customers, revenue is recognized upon receipt by the customer, at which time title passes to the customer in accordance with the terms of the sale. The Company records a reserve for estimated product returns and allowances in each reporting period based on its historical returns experience. The Company reserved $0.2 million for estimated product returns at both June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012. If actual returns differed significantly from the Company's historical experience, changes to the reserves could be required in future periods.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012
Deferred revenue includes amounts received from customers for merchandise to be shipped in subsequent periods. The total amounts received that are included in deferred revenue totaled $12.0 million and $11.7 million at June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively, excluding gift card and gift certificate sales which are described below. The Company defers incremental direct costs of order processing related to those orders for which revenue is deferred. Deferred order processing costs of $0.3 million were included in other current assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets at both June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012. As a result of fresh start accounting, deferred revenue in the fiscal year ended June 20, 2012 was adjusted to its fair value, resulting in a reduction of $1.4 million. See Note 5, “Chapter 11 Cases and Emergence.”
Revenues from the sale of gift cards and gift certificates are deferred until redeemed. The Company’s gift cards and certificates do not lose value over time and do not expire. Unredeemed gift cards or certificates that are subject to escheatment ultimately revert to the appropriate state and are not recorded as income. Unredeemed gift cards or certificates not subject to escheatment are recognized in income after being outstanding for seven years, at which time the Company considers the possibility of redemption to be remote. Income from unredeemed gift cards and gift certificates (“breakage”) of $0.9 million was recognized in the fiscal year ended June 29, 2013 and a nominal amount was recognized in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. Gift card breakage is recorded in selling, general and administrative costs. Deferred revenue associated with gift cards and certificates amounted to $2.4 million and $2.6 million as of June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively.
Classification of Costs and Expenses
Cost of goods sold includes cost of goods, occupancy expenses for manufacturing and distribution facilities, warehouse and fulfillment costs and product delivery costs. Cost of goods consists of raw materials, manufacturing costs, costs of externally-purchased merchandise, freight expenses and other inventory-related costs. Occupancy expenses are primarily comprised of depreciation, rent and utilities. Warehouse and fulfillment costs primarily consist of labor, storage and equipment.
Selling, general and administrative expenses consist of costs for occupancy associated with our stores and corporate facilities, advertising expenses, credit costs, call center expenses, depreciation and amortization for store leasehold improvements and fixtures, IT equipment and software, and corporate administrative functions. Occupancy expenses associated with the stores and corporate facilities primarily include rent, common area maintenance and utilities. Corporate administrative function costs primarily include the costs for executive administration, legal, human resources, finance, insurance and information technology.
Other income and other expenses not otherwise classified generally consist of legal settlements and other non-operating income or expenses that are not of a meaningful nature for separate classification.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method. Under this method, deferred income tax liabilities and assets are based on the difference between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities multiplied by the expected tax rate in the year the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred income tax expense or benefit results from the change in the net deferred tax asset or liability between periods.
The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to an amount that is more-likely-than-not to be realized. The Company has considered carryback and carryforward periods, historical and forecasted income, the apportioned earnings in the jurisdictions in which the Company and its subsidiaries operate, and tax planning strategies in estimating a valuation allowance against the Company’s deferred tax assets. If the Company determines that it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, an adjustment to the deferred tax assets is charged to earnings in the period in which such a determination is made. Conversely, if the Company determines that it is more-likely-than-not that the deferred tax assets will be realized, the applicable portion of the previously estimated valuation allowance would be reversed. See Note 12, “Income Taxes.”
The amount of income taxes the Company pays is subject to periodic audits by federal and state tax authorities and these audits may result in proposed deficiency assessments. Accounting for uncertain tax positions prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Accounting for uncertain tax positions also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. See Note 12, “Income Taxes.”
Stock-Based Compensation
The fair value of stock-based awards to employees is calculated using the Binomial Lattice option valuation model, which requires that we make certain subjective assumptions. These assumptions include future stock price volatility and the expected life of the stock option, which affect the calculated fair values. The Company uses the simplified method to calculate the expected term, which represents the period of time that the options granted are expected to be outstanding. The simplified method is described in the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletins Nos. 107 and 110. This method is appropriate as the Company has insufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate the expected term of its new Common Stock. The risk-free rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The calculated compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over each vesting period. See Note 11, “Stock Option Plan.”
4. | Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Developments |
In July 2012, the FASB updated the accounting guidance related to testing indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. This update permits an entity to first make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more-likely-than-not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test. An entity is not required to calculate the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset and perform the quantitative impairment test unless the entity determines that it is more-likely-than-not that the asset is impaired. The more-likely-than-not threshold is defined as having a likelihood of more than 50%. The Company early adopted this standard in fiscal 2012. The adoption did not materially impact the Company’s financial statements.

5. | Chapter 11 Cases and Emergence |
Background of Bankruptcy Proceedings
The Debtors filed for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code on March 28, 2011. While in Chapter 11, certain claims against the Debtors in existence before the filing of petitions for relief under federal bankruptcy laws were stayed. These claims were reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 25, 2011, as liabilities subject to compromise (“LSTC”). The Company continued to operate the business and manage the properties as debtor in possession under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and the orders of the Bankruptcy Court prior to the Company's emergence from bankruptcy under the Plan on the Effective Date.
As part of the “first day” and subsequent motions, the Company obtained Bankruptcy Court approval to continue to pay critical vendors, meet prepetition and postpetition payroll obligations, maintain cash management systems, pay taxes, continue to provide employee benefits and maintain insurance programs, which allowed the Company to continue to operate the existing business in the ordinary course. Under the Bankruptcy Code, the Company had the right to assume, assume and assign, or reject certain executory contracts and unexpired leases, subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court and certain other conditions.
Fiscal Year Ended June 29, 2013
During the 52 weeks ended June 29, 2013, the Company incurred $0.8 million in professional fees related to its emergence from bankruptcy protection. Additionally, the Company made its first distribution of $2.8 million related to its Class 4 and 4(a) claims, including interest, in addition to $2.9 million paid to the Pension Guaranty Corporation (“PBGC”) as an installment on the termination premiums related to the Company’s defined benefit pension plan as described below under “Plan of Reorganzation.” Also, see Note 9, “Borrowing Arrangements,” for the balance of reorganization obligations.
Debtor-in-Possession Financing
On March 29, 2011, the Company entered into (i) the $100.0 million DIP ABL Facility provided by certain lenders, including UBS AG, Stamford Branch, Ally Commercial Finance LLC and UBS Loan Finance LLC, with UBS AG, Stamford Branch acting as the administrative agent and (ii) a $55.0 million junior term note facility (the “DIP Notes Facility” and, together with the DIP ABL Facility, the “DIP Facilities”) provided by certain holders of the Company’s then-outstanding senior notes (the “Senior Notes”) with Wilmington Trust FSB acting as the administrative agent. The DIP Facilities allowed the Company’s business activities to continue to function during pendency of the Chapter 11 cases. Borrowings under the DIP Facilities were secured by all present and after-acquired property of the Company. Borrowings under the DIP ABL Facility accrued interest on the outstanding principal balance at a rate per annum equal to, at the Company’s option, LIBOR plus 3.75% or a specified base rate plus 2.75%. The DIP ABL Facility also had a 1.0% unused line fee. Borrowings under the DIP Notes Facility accrued interest on the outstanding principal balance at a rate per annum equal to, at the Debtors’ option, LIBOR plus 11.5% (with a LIBOR floor of 1.5%) or a specified base rate plus 9.25% (with a base rate floor of 3.75%). The stated maturity for the DIP Facilities was March 29, 2012. The Company was subject to certain affirmative covenants, as well as negative covenants, and was in compliance with such covenants at June 25, 2011 and at September 12, 2011. In connection with entering into the DIP Facilities, the Company incurred deferred financing costs of $4.5 million, which were amortized over the period that such facilities were outstanding through September 13, 2011.
At September 12, 2011, the Company had borrowed $21.0 million under the DIP ABL Facility and had $0.8 million in outstanding letters of credit, which were fully cash collateralized. At September 12 2011, the Company had borrowed the full $55.0 million in junior term notes available under the DIP Notes Facility.

Chapter 11 Claims Assessment
The Bankruptcy Court established June 13, 2011 as the bar date for filing proofs of claim against the Debtors. Under certain limited circumstances, some creditors may be permitted to file claims after the applicable bar date. Accordingly, it is possible that not all potential claims were filed as of the Effective Date. The Bankruptcy Court will ultimately resolve any disputes regarding the amount and underlying validity of the claims. As claims are resolved, or where better information becomes available and is evaluated, the Company will make adjustments to the consolidated financial statements as appropriate.
Liabilities Subject to Compromise
In connection with the Company’s bankruptcy filing on March 28, 2011, the Company reclassified a substantial portion of the outstanding prepetition obligations to LSTC. These prepetition obligations included Senior Notes, capital lease obligations, trade payables, pension liabilities, calculated lease termination expenses, severance and other accrued prepetition liabilities. See Note 9, “Borrowing Arrangements,” and Note 10, “Benefit Programs.”
The following table presents the carrying value of the LSTC balance on September 12, 2011 (in thousands).
| | September 12, 2011 | |

Other accrued liabilities | | | 1,126 | |
Total liabilities subject to compromise | | $ | 273,612 | |
All LSTC were discharged on the Effective Date or were retained by the Company under the terms of the Plan.
Restructuring Expenses
The Company recognized restructuring expenses of $0.8 million in the fiscal year ended June 29, 2013 and $2.6 million from the Effective Date through June 30, 2012, which was comprised of post-petition professional fees. These items were expensed in selling, general and administrative expenses and are included in operating income.
Reorganization Items
The Company recorded a net reorganization gain of $200.6 million from June 26, 2011 through September 12, 2011, which included a net reorganization gain of $246.3 million from the discharge of LSTC under the Plan. The Company (Successor) recorded net reorganization expenses of $1.6 million from the Effective Date through June 30, 2012. The reorganization expenses recorded in both periods were comprised of postpetition professional fees related to the bankruptcy proceedings, prepetition liability claim adjustments and other miscellaneous reorganization related expenses.

Plan of Reorganization
On August 29, 2011, the Bankruptcy Court issued an order confirming the Plan. The Plan became effective on September 13, 2011, the Effective Date.
Generally, the Plan provided for the satisfaction of certain claims through a combination of cash and new Common Stock in the reorganized Company as follows:
i. Class 1, which consisted of holders of secured claims against the Debtors received, at the option of the reorganized Debtors, in full and final satisfaction and discharge of such claim, either (a) cash in the full amount of the allowed secured claim; (b) the return of the collateral securing such allowed claim; or (c) such other treatment that satisfies Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code.
ii. Class 2, which consisted of holders of priority claims, received a cash distribution in the amount of each priority claimants' allowed claim.
iii. Class 3, which consisted of holders of the Debtors’ Senior Notes, received their pro rata share of 124,298 shares of Common Stock of the Company. Eligible holders of senior notes also received the ability to purchase additional shares of Common Stock in the Rights Offering discussed below. Holders of Senior Notes that were not eligible to participate in the Rights Offering received a cash distribution.
iv. Class 4, general unsecured claims, received a cash distribution equal to 10% of the amount of their claims, payable in annual installments, with 40% (up to $1.6 million) disbursed on the first Monday following fiscal month-end August 2012 and 60% (up to $2.4 million) disbursed on the first Monday following fiscal month-end August 2013. However, if the total cash distribution exceeds $4.0 million in the aggregate, the amount over $4.0 million will be disbursed on the first Monday following the end of fiscal month-end August 2014. All unpaid distributions accrued interest at the annual rate of 5% from the Effective Date through the applicable payment date referenced above.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

v. Intercompany claims between the Debtors in Class 5 received no distribution on account of those claims.
vi. The Plan reinstated the Class 6 equity interests in the Debtors other than the Company, and canceled the Class 7 equity interests in the Company without distribution on account of Class 7 interests.
The Bankruptcy Court also approved a settlement with the PBGC with respect to a distressed termination of the Company’s defined benefit pension plan (the “PBGC Settlement”). Pursuant to the PBGC Settlement, (i) the reorganized Debtors agreed to pay termination premiums to the PBGC of $8.7 million, payable in twelve (12) equal quarterly installments, and (ii) the PBGC’s unsecured claim against the Debtors was allowed in the amount of $36.0 million. Under the PBGC Settlement, the termination premium payments were required to commence on November 15, 2011, with additional payments to be made on the 15th day of every third month until the reorganized Debtors have paid the termination premiums in full. The last quarterly payment was due on August 15, 2014. In addition, the PBGC received, in full and final satisfaction and discharge of its claim, cash in the amount equal to 10% of the amount of the PBGC unsecured claim as follows: 40% was disbursed on the first Monday following fiscal month-end August 2012, and 60% was disbursed on the first Monday following fiscal month-end August 2013. All unpaid distributions accrued interest at the annual rate of 5% from the Effective Date through the applicable payment date referenced above. The termination premium payments do not accrue interest. The Company’s obligation to make payments for termination premiums and the PBGC unsecured claim is reflected as reorganization obligations in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. An adjustment to the accumulated comprehensive loss related to the pension benefit has been reflected in the Company’s presentation of the effects of fresh start accounting.
Upon emergence from bankruptcy and pursuant to the Plan, the Reorganized Debtors entered into the Master Services Agreement (“MSA”) with Wasserstein Capital (“WC”), a shareholder of the Company. Under the MSA, WC provides to the Company oversight and management commensurate with those resources customarily dedicated to an actively managed portfolio company. In consideration of WC providing the foregoing services under the MSA, WC is entitled to receive the following compensation: (a) 50,000 shares of the Common Stock of the Company (which was issued to WC on the Effective Date), and (b) an annual management base fee of up to $0.6 million based upon achievement of certain defined annual Adjusted EBITDA targets
Under the Plan, the Company is entitled to delay making any required payments on account of claims during a grace period of up to 30 days subsequent to each payment period during which time any such amounts required to be paid will accrue interest at the rate specified in the Plan.
Financing at Emergence
The Plan included a $55.0 million equity financing through an offering of new Common Stock of the Company to eligible holders of Senior Notes (the “Rights Offering”). The Rights Offering permitted certain qualified holders of the Senior Notes to purchase approximately 733,333 shares, or 76.6%, of new Common Stock of the Company for aggregate proceeds of $55.0 million. Certain Senior Note holders provided a backstop to the Rights Offering in exchange for a total of 50,000 shares of new Common Stock of the Company. The Rights Offering was completed on September 13, 2011, and proceeds were used to repay the $55.0 million that was outstanding under the DIP Notes Facility. The 50,000 shares of Common Stock associated with the backstop fee were also issued on September 13, 2011.

June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012
As part of the post-emergence financing arrangements, the Debtors obtained the $100.0 million Exit Facility. The Exit Facility was used to fund working capital during the Company’s borrowing period from August to December. As of September 13, 2011, the outstanding balance under the DIP ABL Facility of $21.0 million was transferred to the Exit Facility. The Company had no borrowings outstanding under the Exit Facility as of June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012. As discussed under Note 17, “Subsequent Events,” on September 4, 2013, the Company replaced the Exit Facility with the New Credit Facility.
Common Stock
Pursuant to the Plan, all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company prior to the Effective Date, including all stock options, were cancelled. On the Effective Date, a total of 957,631 shares of new Common Stock were issued pursuant to the Plan. See Note 2, “Ownership and Capital Structure.”
Applicability of Fresh Start Accounting
In connection with our emergence from Chapter 11, the Company considered the fresh start applicability test under U.S. GAAP, which requires a Company to implement fresh start accounting in the event of the following:
| ● | The reorganization value of the company’s assets immediately before the date of confirmation of the plan of reorganization was less than the total of all postpetition and allowed claims; and |
| ● | The holders of existing voting shares immediately before confirmation of the plan of reorganization receive less than 50% of the voting shares upon emergence. |
Based on the fresh start applicability test noted above, management determined that the Company qualifies for fresh start accounting as of the Effective Date. Under fresh start accounting, reorganization value is the value attributed to the reconstituted entity, generally approximates the fair value of the entity before considering liabilities and represents the amount a willing buyer would pay for the assets of the entity immediately after the restructuring. In addition, all prior earnings and deficits are eliminated.
In developing the Plan, a valuation was performed to determine the fair value of the Company. The valuation report determined that the enterprise value of the Company was $122.9 million on the Effective Date. The valuation considered, among other things, recent publicly-available financial statements, certain internal financial and operating data, a five-year business plan projection used in the preparation of the Plan and management’s estimates for future growth. From this analysis, a discounted cash flow was utilized to determine the enterprise value. A discount factor of 16.7% was derived by using comparative companies’ weighted average cost of capital rates and specific company-related risk premiums. A Gordon Growth model was used to calculate the terminal value, utilizing a long-term growth rate of 3%.

In conjunction with fresh start accounting, the enterprise value of the Company as of the Effective Date was allocated to fair value the assets and liabilities as follows (in thousands):
Working capital (excluding Inventory) | | $ | (28,468 | ) |
Inventory | | | 64,814 | |
Fixed assets | | | 96,612 | |
Other long-term assets (liabilities) | | | (24,901 | ) |
Goodwill and intangible assets | | | 14,843 | |
Emergence value | | $ | 122,900 | |
Inventory
To obtain the fair value of the inventory of the Company, the income approach was utilized. The inventory balances were classified into three groups: raw materials, semi-finished goods (“SFG”) and finished goods. The inventory that was classified as raw materials was valued at the book value of the Company. The income approach was used for the SFG and finished goods inventory. The income approach estimated the fair value of the SFG and finished goods based on the net retail value of the inventory less operating expenses and a reasonable profit allowance.
Real Property
To determine the fair value of the real property, three approaches were used: the sales comparison approach, the cost approach and the income capitalization approach.
Personal Property
Personal property was grouped by the following classifications: leasehold improvements, asset retirement obligations, machinery and equipment, automotive equipment, orchards in production, capital projects-in-process, software and internally-developed software and capitalized interest. It was determined that capitalized interest is not a value-added asset and is considered a financing tool; thus, no value was assigned to the capitalized interest. The valuation for the orchards in production was based on the excess earnings method under the income approach. The valuation assumed that a market participant would sell the orchards production through the wholesale channel and not through the Company’s retail channel. A discounted cash flow analysis was used to determine the value of the orchards in production. For the valuation of the remaining personal property, primary reliance was placed on the cost approach. Secondary consideration was placed on the market approach, particularly for assets with active secondary markets.
Trade Names
The valuation for the trade names used the relief of royalty method. The relief of royalty method is a specified discounted cash flow method that calculates the assumed savings for not having to license the trade name from an independent third party. This method is based on the assumption that, in lieu of ownership, a firm would be willing to pay a royalty in order to exploit the related benefits of the asset. Assumptions considered were other royalty rates for similar trade names and the relative importance of the Company’s trade name.
Customer Relationships
The customer relationships valuation was based on the perceived value to the extent these relationships are expected to lead to recurring revenue streams, as well as new revenue opportunities arising from the Company’s reputation. The fair value of the customer relationships was based on the excess earnings method under the income approach.

June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012
Deferred Revenue
The fair value of the Company’s deferred revenue was based on the costs to perform the remaining services and/or satisfy the Company’s remaining obligations, plus a reasonable profit for those activities.

Debtor-in-Possession Financing
On March 29, 2011, the Company entered into the $100.0 million DIP ABL Facility and a $55.0 million DIP Notes Facility. The DIP ABL Facility was replaced by the Exit Facility on the Effective Date of the Company’s emergence from bankruptcy. The DIP Notes Facility funded operating costs during bankruptcy and was extinguished on the Effective Date of the Company’s emergence from bankruptcy. The Company paid fees of $4.5 million associated with the DIP Facilities, which was amortized over the period that such facilities were outstanding.
At September 12, 2011, there were $0.8 million in outstanding letters of credit under the DIP ABL Facility, which were fully cash collateralized. At September 12, 2011, the Company had borrowed the full $55.0 million in junior term notes available under the DIP Notes Facility.
Exit Revolving Credit Facility
Upon emergence from bankruptcy on the Effective Date, the DIP ABL Facility was replaced by the $100.0 million Exit Facility described in Note 5 “Chapter 11 Cases and Emergence.” Short-term borrowings under 30 days accrued interest under Libor + 3.75% and other borrowings over 30 days accrued interest under the Alternative Base Rate (“ABR”), which was Prime + 2.75%. At June 29, 2013, the Libor based rate was 4.0% and the ABR was 6.0%. The Exit Facility contained customary affirmative and negative covenants for senior secured credit facilities of this type, including, but not limited to, limitations on the incurrence of indebtedness, capital expenditures, asset dispositions, acquisitions, investments, dividends and other restricted payments, liens and transactions with affiliates. The Exit Facility also contained a number of restrictive covenants. The Available Cash Balance at December 31, 2012 was $72.1 million. As of June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, the Company was in compliance with all Exit Facility covenants.
As of June 29, 2013, unused borrowings under the Exit Facility were $99.0 million, excluding $1.0 million in outstanding letters of credit. The letters of credit accrued interest at 4% annually. The maximum available borrowing under the Exit Facility was determined in accordance with an asset-based debt limitation formula. The formula generally allowed the Company to borrow a substantial portion of the facility from July to December, but significantly restricted its borrowing capacity from January to June. As a result, we had no available borrowing capacity at June 29, 2013. The Company was required to pay a commitment fee equal to 1.0% per annum on the average daily unused amount of the revolving commitment of each lender. The commitment fees and interest for the letters of credit were payable on the last day of each calendar year quarter and the associated expenses are included within interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. As discussed under Note 17, “Subsequent Events,” on September 4, 2013, the Company replaced the Exit Facility with the New Credit Facility.

Reorganization Obligations
As of June 25, 2011, the Company had outstanding $58.2 million in senior floating rate notes due March 1, 2012, and $140.2 million of senior fixed rate notes due March 1, 2013. The Senior Notes were classified as LSTC on March 28, 2011, when the Company filed for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11. The Senior Notes were discharged in full and final satisfaction on the Effective Date pursuant to the Plan.
On the Effective Date and pursuant to the Plan, the Company recorded $8.7 million in pension-related termination premiums pursuant to the PBGC Settlement. As part of the PBGC Settlement, (i) the reorganized Debtors agreed to pay termination premiums to the PBGC of $8.7 million, payable in twelve (12) equal quarterly installments, and (ii) the PBGC’s unsecured claim against the Debtors was allowed in the amount of $36.0 million. Under the PBGC Settlement, the termination premium payments were required to commence on November 15, 2011, with additional payments to be made on the 15th day of every third month until the reorganized Debtors have paid the termination premiums in full. The last quarterly payment is due on August 15, 2014. In addition, the PBGC received, in full and final satisfaction and discharge of its claim, cash in the amount equal to 10.0% of the amount of the PBGC claim payable as follows: 40.0% was disbursed on the first Monday following fiscal month-end August 2012, and 60.0% was disbursed on the first Monday following fiscal month-end August 2013. All unpaid distributions related to the PBGC’s unsecured claim accrued interest at the annual rate of 5.0% from the Effective Date through the applicable payment date referenced above. The termination premium payments do not accrue interest. The Company’s obligation to make payments on account of the termination premiums, including and with respect to the November 15, 2011 quarterly installment and the PBGC claim, are reflected as reorganization obligations in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 5, “Chapter 11 Cases and Emergence.”
The Company also recorded approximately $3.3 million for Class 4 general unsecured claims under the Plan. Cash distributions on account of those claims are payable in annual installments, with 40.0% disbursed on the first Monday following fiscal month-end August 2012, and 60.0% disbursed on the first Monday following fiscal month-end August 2013. All unpaid distributions accrued interest at the annual rate of 5.0% from the Effective Date through the applicable payment date referenced above. See Note 5, “Chapter 11 Cases and Emergence.”
Under the Plan, the Company is entitled to delay making any required payments on account of claims during a grace period of up to 30 days subsequent to each payment period, during which time any such amounts required to be paid will accrue interest at the rate specified in the Plan. The Company has paid its scheduled reorganization obligations through June 29, 2013.

Amortization of Deferred Financing Costs
Total amortization expenses of all deferred financing costs were $1.2 million and $3.2 million for the fiscal years ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively, and are included within interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Capital Lease Obligations
In fiscal 2012, the Company acquired computer equipment for $0.4 million, financed by a capital lease agreement. The interest rate on the agreement is 4.8%, with payments due in monthly installments of principal and interest over three years. As of June 29, 2013, the current portion of the remaining obligation was $0.1 million. The current portion of this capital lease obligation is reported as the current portion of long-term debt and capital lease obligations, and the non-current portion is recorded under other long-term liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Pension Plans
The Company had a defined benefit pension plan that covered substantially all employees that were on an active basis as of June 25, 2006. Benefits under the plan were generally based on the employee’s compensation level and years of service. Benefits were fully vested after five years of qualifying service. The required level of funding of this plan changed each year depending on the funding status of the plan and the annual actuarial valuation report.
The Company’s qualified pension plan was partially frozen effective as of June 25, 2006, whereby no new participants would qualify to enter into the plan. A full freeze of the plan became effective June 30, 2007, whereby pension benefits were no longer accrued for participants. After July 1, 2007, the Company had a continuing obligation to fund this plan and continued to recognize net periodic pension cost.
Additionally, the Company had a non-qualified unfunded excess benefit plan. Under this plan, certain key employees were entitled to receive additional pension benefits from the Company. These benefits mainly consisted of the difference between the benefits they would have received under the qualified pension plan in the absence of the limitations imposed on benefits by the Internal Revenue Code and the amount they would actually receive subject to such limitations.
The Company contributed $3.6 million to its pension plans in fiscal 2011 and stopped making future contributions to the plans starting in March 2011 as a result of the Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing.

As part of the Plan, the Bankruptcy Court approved a distress termination of the pension plan and the PBGC Settlement. See Note 5, “Chapter 11 Cases and Emergence,” and Note 9, “Borrowing Arrangements.”
401(k) Plan
Salaried and hourly employees, including management, become eligible to participate in the Company’s 401(k) plan upon completing a minimum of 1,000 hours of service during the 12-month period subsequent to their hire date. The Company did not make any contributions and only incurred nominal administration expenses related to this plan for the fiscal years ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012.
Incentive Compensation Plan
The Company’s bonus plan covers eligible salaried employees and also applies to hourly employees on a discretionary basis. Benefits under this plan are generally based on various performance standards. For the fiscal year ended June 29, 2013, the Company recorded $2.3 million bonus expense under this plan. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded $0.8 million for the predecessor period and $2.9 million for the successor period of bonus expense under this plan.
Self-Insured Liabilities
The Company is primarily self-insured for the health benefits of employees and a limited number of former employees and their dependents. Estimated costs of these self-insurance programs are accrued at the undiscounted value of actuarially-determined projected settlements for known and anticipated claims incurred. These liabilities, totaling $1.8 million and $1.5 million at June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively, are classified within accrued payroll and benefits.
Severance
In the periods presented, the Company incurred estimated severance related benefits associated with the elimination of certain full-time positions across the Company as well as the termination of certain other employees and executives. The severance and related charges were recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Upon the Company’s emergence from bankruptcy, all common stock and outstanding common stock options were cancelled in accordance with the Plan.
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company established and its stockholders approved the Harry & David Holdings, Inc. 2012 Stock Option Plan (the “Stock Option Plan”), which provides for the grant of incentive stock options and qualified and nonqualified stock options, exercisable for shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The Stock Option Plan provides that the total number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued and sold under options granted pursuant to the Stock Option Plan may not exceed 106,403 shares, in addition to any shares that are automatically returned to the authorized shares available for issuance under the Stock Option Plan due to grant forfeitures, cancellations, expirations or other terminations. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of options may be either treasury shares or newly-issued shares. The exercise price of all options may not be less than the fair market value of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of grant.
The Stock Option Plan is administered by the Company’s Board of Directors and, with respect to approval of specific future grants, to a committee of the Board. Options granted under the Stock Option Plan have a ten-year term, unless a shorter term is stipulated in individual option agreements, and may be exercised only to the extent they have vested. Options granted to date vest in equal installments over a five-year period. The option agreement for any grant may provide for the earlier vesting of options upon the occurrence of certain events, including in the event of a change in control of the Company. In case of termination of employment or other service by reason of death, disability, or normal or early retirement, or in the case of hardship or other special circumstances of an employee holding options that have not fully vested, the board may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the time at which such option may be exercised. The option agreement for any grant may provide for a share repurchase right, right of first refusal or drag-along right in favor of the Company upon the occurrence of certain specified events.
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Binomial Lattice option valuation model. Expected volatilities are based on an average historical volatility of the publicly-traded stock of a representative set of comparable companies. The Company used the simplified method to calculate the expected term, which represents the period of time that the options granted are expected to be outstanding. The simplified method is described in the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletins Nos. 107 and 110. The Company believes this method is appropriate because the Company has insufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate the expected term of its new Common Stock. The risk-free rate for periods within the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. In the fiscal year ended June 29, 2013, the Company utilized a pre-vesting forfeiture rate of 10%. Other assumptions used for stock option awards granted are noted in the following table:
| June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012 |

Expected volatility | 55.2% - 55.7% |
Expected dividends | $ -- |

Effective tax rate | | | (64.4 | )% | | | 33.2 | % | | | 5.2 | % |
In the fiscal year ended June 29, 2013, the effective tax rate was less than the federal statutory rate, primarily due to the Liability Stop Rule benefit under Section 1017 of the Internal Revenue Code of $7.8 million, as well as other benefits realized from the Domestic Production Activities Deduction under Section 199 of the Internal Revenue Code of $0.4 million and the Work Opportunity Tax Credit of $0.3 million. In the successor period of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, the effective tax rate was less than the federal statutory rate primarily due to tax credits of $0.5 million. In the predecessor period of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, the effective tax rate was less than the federal statutory rate due to the release of the valuation allowance of $57.9 million, the derecognition of the reserve for uncertain tax positions of $3.9 million and other comprehensive income (“OCI”) adjustment benefit of $2.3 million. In the fiscal years ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, an income tax expense of $0 and $7.5 million, respectively, was allocated to OCI reflecting the tax effect of pension liability adjustments relating to the distressed termination of the pension plan assets and liabilities. See Note 9, “Borrowing Arrangements.”

A valuation allowance recorded in fiscal 2011 was required to reduce the deferred tax assets to an amount that was more likely than not to be realized. The Company released its full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets on the Effective Date due to the deferred tax liabilities that arose from the cancellation of debt upon the emergence from bankruptcy.
The Liability Stop Rule benefit relates to tax treatment of certain debts that were discharged in connection with the bankruptcy emergence. See Note 5, “Chapter 11 Cases and Emergence.” Generally the discharge of a debt obligation for an amount less than the adjusted issue price creates cancelation of indebtedness income (“CODI”), which must be included in the obligor’s taxable income. However, recognition of CODI is limited for a taxpayer that is a debtor in a reorganization case if the discharge is granted by the court or pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by a court. The Plan enabled the Company to qualify for this bankruptcy exclusion rule. Therefore, CODI triggered by discharge of debt under the Plan affected the Company’s future taxable income on the first day of fiscal 2013 by reducing certain income tax attributes otherwise available in the following order: (i) net operating loss carryforwards for the year of discharge; (ii) most credit carryforwards, including the general business credit and minimum tax credit; (iii) net capital losses for the year of discharge and capital loss carryforwards; and (iv) the tax basis of the Company’s assets.
The Liability Stop Rule benefit recognized in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 represents the amount of CODI previously recognized in fiscal 2012 that will not reduce the tax attributes of the Company and reflects a change in estimate. It is not anticipated that the liability stop rule benefit will be subject to future adjustments. Under the Liability Stop Rule, the reduction in asset basis cannot reduce the Company’s aggregate remaining asset basis below the amount of its debt immediately after discharge. The attribute reduction is reflected in the table that follows.

There were no new unrecognized tax benefits recognized in the fiscal years ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012. As of June 25, 2011, prior to fresh start accounting, the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits was $1.5 million, excluding penalty and interest, while a net amount of $3.9 million, including penalty and interest, was recorded in other long-term liabilities. Of these amounts, if recognized, $1.7 million would have favorably impacted the effective tax rate. The Company is indemnified for tax liabilities prior to June 17, 2004. In connection with the bankruptcy, a governmental bar date was established in September 2011, which prohibits the assessment of liabilities from periods prior to March 2011. As a result of this bar date, the Company derecognized the reserve for uncertain tax positions under ASC 740-10-25-6 and the related indemnity receivables.

The Company defines the federal jurisdiction as well as various multi-state jurisdictions as “major” jurisdictions. As of June 29, 2013, tax years subsequent to March 28, 2011 remain open and subject to examination by these “major” jurisdictions.
The Company leases certain properties consisting primarily of retail stores, distribution centers, and equipment with original terms ranging primarily from three to 10 years and up to 22 years. Certain leases contain renewal options, generally for five-year periods, with rent payments during the lease term dependent on the defined percent increase or increases based on certain indexes, in each case as defined within the individual lease agreements. In accordance with ASC Topic 840 “Leases,” for leases that contain fixed escalations of the minimum annual lease payment during the original term of the lease and other lease incentives, the Company recognizes rental expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term and records the difference between rent expense and the amount that is payable as deferred rent. In addition to minimum rental payments, certain of the Company’s retail store leases require the Company to make contingent rental payments, which are typically structured as either minimum rent plus additional rent based on a percentage of store sales if a specified store sales threshold is exceeded, or rent based on a negotiated threshold of sales after which a percent of sales is paid to the landlord. Such contingent rental expense is accrued in each reporting period if achievement of any factor is considered probable. Extra payments such as common area maintenance and property taxes are also required on certain leases.
Total rental expense for all operating leases the fiscal years ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, was as follows (in thousands):

See Note 5, “Chapter 11 Cases and Emergence,” for related disclosures regarding pre-petition claims against the Company and the bar date for filing proofs of claims.
The Company is a party to a variety of agreements to which it may be obligated to indemnify another party from losses arising in connection with the Company’s products or services. The Company also enters into indemnification provisions under its agreements with other companies in the ordinary course of business, typically with its landlords and certain customers, contractors, consultants and vendors. Under these provisions, the Company generally indemnifies and holds harmless the indemnified party for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party as a result of the Company’s activities or, in some cases, as a result of the indemnified party’s activities under the agreement. These indemnification provisions generally survive termination of the underlying agreement. In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with certain of its officers and directors that indemnify such persons for certain liabilities they may incur in connection with their services as an officer or director. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification provisions is generally unlimited. As the Company believes that the occurrence of any events that would trigger payments under these contracts is remote, no liabilities have been recorded in the consolidated financial statements for these indemnification obligations.
The Company’s food and horticultural products are subject to regulation and inspection by various governmental agencies, and involve the risk of injury to consumers. As such, the Company may be required to recall some of its products. The Company maintains product liability insurance in an amount that it believes is adequate to cover the costs associated with these recalls.
On September 27, 2012, the Company initiated a voluntary recall (and on October 8, 2012, an update of that recall) in conjunction with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), upon learning that Sunland, Inc., the Company’s former supplier of peanut-based spreads (“Sunland”), had recalled a number of products due to possible salmonella contamination. The Company’s recall included certain Harry & David® and Wolferman’s® brand products manufactured by Sunland between March 1, 2010 and September 24, 2012, that contained ingredients included in Sunland’s recall. The Company recall was one of a number of recalls initiated by large retailers of products affected by the Sunland recall.

June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012
The Company issued press releases for both the initial recall (September 27, 2012) and the updated recall (October 8, 2012), which were published on the FDA’s website. In addition to the press releases, the Company, out of concern for the health of its customers and the public, provided notice of the recall on its website and attempted to contact its customers who had purchased or received the affected products.
Prior to the year ended June 29, 2013, the Company filed an insurance claim seeking reimbursement of certain recall-related costs. These costs included customer and consumer returns, cost of goods sold for the destruction of finished goods and raw materials inventory, and selling, general and administrative expenses. Subsequent to year end, the Company was reimbursed under its insurance policy for certain of these costs less its self-insured retention, which was immaterial to the consolidated financial statements.
At times the Company may commit to future commodities purchases based upon current prices; however, future Company purchase orders are issued by the Company when deemed appropriate for required merchandise. The Company did not have any contractual future commodity purchase commitments aside from those purchased in the normal operating cycle as of June 29, 2013.
The Company leases certain properties consisting primarily of retail stores, seasonal pop-up stores, distribution centers, and equipment with original terms ranging primarily from three to 10 years and up to 22 years. See Note 13, “Leases.”
The Company may be subjected to various claims and legal proceedings that arise in the normal course of business. Management believes that the ultimate resolution of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.
In August 2012, the Company entered into a two-year enterprise software and service agreement with a vendor for approximately $3.8 million.
15. | Related-Party Transactions |
Upon emergence from bankruptcy and pursuant to the Plan, the Reorganized Debtors entered into the MSA with WC, a shareholder of the Company. Under the MSA, WC provides to the Company oversight and management commensurate with those resources customarily dedicated to an actively managed portfolio company. In consideration of WC providing the foregoing services under the MSA, WC is entitled to receive the following compensation: (a) 50,000 shares of the stock of the Company (which was issued to WC on the Effective Date), and (b) an annual management base fee of up to $0.6 million based upon achievement of certain defined annual Adjusted EBITDA targets. Under the MSA, $0.7 million of expenses were recognized for each of the years ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012.

Subsequent events were evaluated through September 16, 2013, the date the financial statements were available for issuance.
On September 4, 2013, the Company entered into a new revolving credit facility (the "New Credit Facility") with a syndicate of lenders. The New Credit Facility refinances and replaces the Exit Facility. The New Credit Facility has a maturity date of September 4, 2018, and provides for revolving loans up to $100 million. The maximum available borrowing under the New Credit Facility is determined in accordance with an asset-based debt limitation formula. The formula generally allows the Company to borrow a substantial portion of the facility from July through December, but significantly restricts its borrowing capacity from January through June. The New Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company. Amounts outstanding under the New Credit Facility accrue interest, at the Company's option, at a rate of LIBOR plus 2.00% to 2.50% or the prime rate plus 1.00% to 1.50%, in each case with such margin varying based on the amounts outstanding under the New Credit Facility.
The New Credit Facility contains customary affirmative and negative covenants for senior secured credit facilities of this type. In the event the Company is unable to comply with these covenants, its ability to borrow under the New Credit Facility would be restricted or an event of default may occur. Among other matters, the New Credit Facility contains covenants that (i) require the Company to repay the outstanding amount in full on the first business day after Christmas of each year and (ii) require the Company to maintain an "Available Cash Balance" of at least $50 million as of the last day of the fiscal month for December of each year. If the Company does not have an Available Cash Balance of at least $50 million as of that date, the Company is required to satisfy a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio.
The Company is required to pay a commitment fee equal to 0.25% per annum on the average daily unused amount of the revolving commitment of each lender. The Company must also pay a letter of credit fee equal to 2.00% to 2.50% per annum on the outstanding amount of letters of credit issued under the New Credit Facility, with such margin varying based on the amounts outstanding under the New Credit Facility. In connection with the new Credit Agreement, the Company incurred deferred financing costs of approximately $1.6 million.
