Adoption of R.G. Barry 2012 Management Bonus Plan
The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of R.G. Barry Corporation (the “Company”) has adopted the R. G. Barry 2012 Management Bonus Plan (the “2012 Bonus Plan”). Certain employees of the Company, including the named executive officers, are eligible to participate in the 2012 Bonus Plan. Bonuses under the plan are based on the achievement of Company financial performance objectives (based on pre-incentive, pre-tax income) in fiscal year 2012 at varying levels. Upon the achievement of these objectives, an eligible participant will receive a bonus based on a percentage of his or her annual salary. Potential bonus levels of the Company’s named executive officers under the 2012 Bonus Plan range from 10% to 150% of a participant’s fiscal year 2012 annual base salary, depending upon the participant’s position with the Company. The threshold, target and maximum potential bonuses (if applicable objectives are met) of the Company’s named executive officers are indicated below (with linear interpolation applied between threshold and target, and between target and maximum):

The Board retains the discretion to change the design of, and participants in, the 2012 Bonus Plan without notice to or approval of participants. No entitlement to payments under the 2012 Bonus Plan will exist until the payments are authorized by the Board.
