PENDING CHANGE OF CONTROL TRANSACTIONS
Stage II is a party to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase
Agreement") with Jack Clark, Robert Plotkin and Steven R. Clark, founders of the
Company (the "Founders"), and Richard Siskind, the owner and CEO of several
companies engaged in various segments of the apparel industry. The transactions
contemplated by the Purchase Agreement include the sale to Mr. Siskind of
1.9 million shares (the "Control Shares") of the Company's common stock ("Common
Stock") held by the Founders in consideration for their release from guarantees
of the Company's indebtedness to its factor and their receipt of options to
reacquire up to 1.5 million shares of Common Stock from Mr. Siskind at exercise
prices ranging from $.50 to $1.50 per share (the "Founders Options").
1
<PAGE>
In addition to the sale of the Control Shares, the transactions
contemplated by the Purchase Agreement include (i) the Company's issuance to Mr.
Siskind of options to purchase up to 1.5 million shares of Common Stock on the
same terms as the Founders Options, exercisable only to the extent the Founders
Options are exercised, (ii) the reconstitution of the Company's board of
directors (the "Board") with designees of Mr. Siskind (the "Designees"), (iii)
the addition of a new management team headed by Mr. Siskind and (iv) the
arrangement by Mr. Siskind of a new credit facility for the Company. Mr.
Siskind is also expected to receive options to purchase up to 900,000 shares of
Common Stock at an exercise price of $.75 per share. All of the options
issuable to Mr. Siskind will be subject to shareholder approval at the next
annual meeting of the Company's shareholders. The closing of the transactions
contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (the "Closing") is scheduled for the end
of April 1998 and is subject to various conditions.
The Company believes Mr. Siskind's experience, industry contacts and
successful track record will enable Stage II to complete the turnaround started
by its current management. To assist in that effort, Jack Clark is expected to
enter into a new employment agreement with the Company contemplating a
transitional role for one year and the termination of his existing buy-sell
agreement with Stage II. See "Certain Transactions."
PROPOSED BOARD DESIGNEES
As a condition to Closing, the Purchase Agreement contemplates the
resignation of the current members of the Board and their appointment of the
Designees. The Company has been advised by Mr. Siskind that the Designees, in
addition to himself, will be Robert Greenberg, Barry Fertel, Jon Siskind and
Beverly Roseman. A biography of each Designee is set forth below.
RICHARD SISKIND has been in the apparel business for over 30 years, serving
in a variety of roles and positions. By 1977, Mr. Siskind had assumed the
position of president of David Small Industries, Inc. In 1982 he co-founded
Apparel Exchange, Inc., an affiliated company. Both companies sold off-price
men's, women's and children's apparel and reached sales in excess of $100
million by 1989. Mr. Siskind sold both companies in 1989. In 1991 Mr. Siskind
founded R. Siskind and Company ("RSC"). He is a director, sole shareholder and
chief executive officer of RSC, which is in the business of purchasing top brand
name men's and women's apparel and accessories, and redistributing it to a
global clientele of upscale off-price retailers.
ROBERT GREENBERG founded LA Gear, a publicly held footwear company noted
for making athletic footwear fashionable. Mr. Greenberg launched his second
footwear venture with his sons in 1992. At 57, he is the Chairman and CEO of
Skechers USA, Inc., which sells casual lifestyle footwear to major retailers
throughout the United States and in approximately sixty countries. Since its
inception, Skechers, Inc. has become one of the largest privately held footwear
companies in the United States.
BARRY FERTEL has been a partner in the law firm of Roper, Barandes & Fertel
since 1988. His practice is concentrated in the field of commercial litigation.
From 1980 to 1988, Mr. Fertel was an associate and later a partner of Bell,
Kalnick, Klee, Green & Beckman, a New York City law firm. From 1978 to 1980, he
was an Assistant Attorney General for the State of New York. He is a graduate
of the State University of New York at Stony Brook and received his law degree
from the State University of New York at Buffalo. Mr. Fertel currently serves
as Vice President of the Board of Education of the New Rochelle, New York School
District.
JON SISKIND graduated from the University of Hartford in 1991, where he
received his B.A. in Economics. He joined RSC in the same year as an account
executive handling the Northeast and Mid West territories. In 1994, he was
appointed National Sales Manager and given the additional responsibility for
overseeing all sales and distribution. In 1995, he was appointed as RSC's Vice
President of Sales. Jon Siskind is the son of Richard Siskind.

EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
STOCK OPTION PLANS. The ISO Plans maintained by the Company were adopted
in 1987 (the "1987 Plan") and 1994 (the "1994 Plan") to provide for the grant of
options to purchase up to 200,000 shares and 300,000 shares, respectively, of
Common Stock to key employees. The terms of the two ISO Plans are identical,
except for the additional shares of Common Stock covered by the 1994 Plan.
The exercise price for options granted under the ISO Plans is fixed by a
Compensation Committee of the Board at 100% of the market price of the Common
Stock on the date of the grant or 110% of the market price for any optionee who
is a principal shareholder. Each option granted under the ISO Plans is
exercisable for periods of up to ten years from the date of grant, or three
months after termination of employment, with certain exceptions.
At December 31, 1997, options to purchase a total of 55,000 shares at
exercise prices ranging from $3 to $41/2 per share were outstanding under the
ISO Plans, and options to purchase 445,000 shares were reserved for future
grants. No options were exercised during 1997, 1996 or 1995.
EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP AND SALARY DEFERRAL PLAN. In 1994, the Company
converted its Profit Sharing Plan into an Employee Stock Ownership and Salary
Deferral Plan (the "Savings Plan"). Under the Savings Plan, for each dollar
contributed by electing employees to a retirement savings account from up to 12%
of their annual compensation, the Company may contribute up to $.40, subject to
certain limitations under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (the
"Code"). The Company's expense for these contributions in 1997, 1996 and 1995
aggregated $16,000, $38,000 $69,000, respectively.
The Saving Plan also enables the Company to make discretionary
contributions for open market purchases of its Common Stock to be allocated to
the accounts of all employees in proportion to their annual compensation. This
feature was added in 1994 and is intended to qualify for treatment under Section
401(a) of the Code. The Company did not make any discretionary contributions to
the Savings Plan for this purpose in 1997, 1996 or 1995.
SALARY PROTECTION AGREEMENTS
The Company is a party to Salary Protection Agreements with Ronald Cohen
and Carl Jenkins. The agreements provide for severance payments to these
executives equal to six months' base salary plus $30,000 in the Case of Mr.
Cohen, and four months' base salary plus $25,000, in the case of Mr. Jenkins, if
5
<PAGE>
their employment is terminated by the Company without cause or by the
executive for good reason. The agreements define cause as willful misfeasance
or malfeasance in the performance of an executive's duties and good reason as
a reduction of the executive's responsibilities or compensation or an
increase in his time or travel requirements by the Company. The agreements
expire in December 1999, in the case of Mr. Cohen, and August 1999, in the
case of Mr. Jenkins.
COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
GENERAL. In recommending 1997 compensation levels for the Company's
officers, including the Chief Executive Officer and other named executive
officers, the Compensation Committee of the Board applied the Board's
established compensation policies and criteria intended to promote the Company's
overall objective of maximizing shareholder value over time. These procedures
are aimed at maintaining a competitive compensation package to attract and
retain talented personnel while also responding to both individual and corporate
performance measures. Recommendations for 1996 salary levels and long term
compensation were based on evaluations during January 1997 and thereafter.
COMPENSATION POLICY. The Company's executive compensation policy is
designed to maintain competitive levels of pay along with equity incentives to
attract and retain qualified executives with interests, as co-owners of the
Company, identical to those of its unaffiliated shareholders. This policy is
implemented through a salary structure augmented by stock option and Savings
Plan participation. The Committee's objective is to integrate these
compensation components with the annual and long term performance of the Company
as well as the achievements and contributions of the individual executives.
While the Committee's goal is to maintain executive compensation at levels
that are competitive with industry peers and linked to corporate performance,
actual compensation in any particular year may be above or below published rates
for competitors. In addition, due to the overall weakness of the retail apparel
market, the Company's compensation levels from year to year may not correlate
directly with various corporate performance measures in a particular year. The
Committee believes, however, that the Company's compensation program enables it
to balance the relationship between compensation and performance in the best
interests of the shareholders.
The separate components of the Company's executive compensation program for
1997 are described below, along with a discussion of the evaluations made by the
Committee in recommending 1997 compensation levels for the five most senior
executive officers.
ANNUAL COMPENSATION. Annual compensation paid to the Company's named
executive officers is limited to base salaries, without any bonus or commission
payments, plus contributions to their accounts under the Company's Savings Plan,
which are generally dependent upon the amount of their own contributions.
Salary levels for the Company's top five executive officers are established by
the Board based on recommendations of the Committee.
Recommendations by the Committee for salary levels in 1997 were based on
several historical and comparative performance factors. The Committee also
considered comparative compensation and performance data for various other
apparel companies and the performance of each of the Company's senior officers
within his particular area of operating responsibility. The Committee reached
favorable evaluations on the basis of performance but determined that 1996
salary levels were not competitive with industry peers. Based on these
determinations, the Committee recommended that the Board increase 1997 salaries
for Ronald Cohen, Carl Jenkins and Steven Clark by $32,000, $47,000 and $4,000,
respectively.
The Committee's 1997 salary recommendation for Jack Clark, the Chairman of
the Board, was based on similar criteria as well as considerations of overall
corporate leadership, contribution to the Company's performance and assumption
of increased responsibilities. These positive considerations were offset by the
Company's cost containment objectives, resulting in the Committee's
recommendation for the maintenance of Mr. Clark's 1997 salary at the reduced
level established for 1996. In September 1997, in view of the Company's weak
financial performance, Mr. Clark voluntarily reduced his salary to an annual
rate of $100,000, resulting in his total annual compensation
6
<PAGE>
of $298,000 in 1997.
LONG TERM COMPENSATION. Long term incentives are provided through the
Company's ISO Plans. Options provide executives and other key employees with
the opportunity to establish or increase their equity interest in the Company
and to share in any appreciation in the value of the Common Stock. As a result
of the Company's disappointing financial results, no options were granted to its
five most highly compensated executive officers during 1997.
CONCLUSION. The Committee believes that the executive compensation
policies implemented through its recommendations serve the interest of the
Company's shareholders and the long range goals of the Company.

CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS
The Company is a party to a 1992 buy-sell agreement with Jack Clark, a
director and officer of the Company, providing for the Company's repurchase of
the shares of Common Stock by his estate in the event of his death. The
purchase price for any shares repurchased under the agreement will be the
average of the closing prices of the Common Stock on its principal trading
market during the five trading days preceding the date of Mr. Clark's death or
the book value per share of the Common Stock as reflected in the Company's most
recent periodic report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission prior
to the date of death, whichever is greater. The Company maintains insurance
policies on the life of Mr. Clark covering $5.4 million of its repurchase
commitment under the agreement at premiums aggregating approximately $2.3
million over a period of seven years, with corresponding cash surrender values
estimated to reach approximately $2 million by the end of that period. Mr.
Clark has agreed to terminate the buy-sell agreement at the Closing of the
transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. See"Pending Change of
Control Transactions."
During 1997, consulting services were provided to the Company by Robert
Plotkin, an incumbent director and former President of Stage II. The consulting
services provided by Mr. Plotkin consisted primarily of coordinating the
Company's foreign manufacturing arrangements. Mr. Plotkin received consulting
fees for these services during 1997 aggregating $101,000. The consulting
arrangements with Mr. Plotkin were terminated at the end of 1997.
It is the Company's policy to structure any transactions with related
parties only on terms that are no less favorable to the Company than could be
obtained on an arm's length basis from unrelated parties.
