Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment on an annual basis in
December, and more often if indications of impairment exist as required under Accounting Standards Codification 350-20 Goodwill. The results of our Companys analyses conducted in 2009 indicated that no impairment in the carrying amount
of goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets had occurred. During the first three fiscal quarters of 2010, there were no indicators of impairment to goodwill and intangible assets.

During the first fiscal quarter of 2010, our Company completed two acquisitions and the carrying amount of goodwill related to our Team
Sports segment was increased by $3,158. In addition, a $120 increase was due to an earn-out payment related to a previously completed Riddell acquisition. During the third fiscal quarter of 2010, no changes were made to the goodwill balance.

9.750% Senior Secured Notes

In December 2009, in connection with the refinancing of our Companys then-existing indebtedness, or the Refinancing, we issued
$350,000 of 9.750% Senior Secured Notes, due December 2016, or the Notes. Interest is payable on the Notes semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each year. We may redeem some or all of the Notes prior to December 1, 2012 at a
price equal to 100.00% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and a make-whole premium. We may redeem all or any of the Notes on or after December 1, 2012 and prior to December 1, 2013 at 107.313% of the principal amount
of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Then we may redeem all or any of the Notes on or after December 1, 2013 and prior to December 1, 2014 at 104.875% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Then
we may redeem all or any of the Notes on or after December 1, 2014 and prior to December 1, 2015 at 102.438% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest. At any time on or after December 1, 2015, we may
redeem all or any of the Notes at 100.00% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, during any twelve month period commencing on the issue date and prior to December 1, 2012, we may redeem up to 10% of
aggregate principal amount of the Notes at a price equal to 103.00% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. At any time prior to December 1, 2012, we may also redeem up to 35.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the
Notes at a price equal to 109.750% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, with the net cash proceeds of one or more equity offerings of our Company. We are not required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund
payments with respect to the Notes. However, the Notes will become due and payable on October 1, 2015 unless on or prior to August 28, 2015, the indebtedness of EB Sports under its senior secured credit agreement with Wachovia Bank, N.A.
and the lenders party thereto, or the New Holdco Facility, has been either repaid or refinanced with indebtedness with a stated maturity that is at least 91 days after the maturity date of the Notes.

Among other provisions, the indenture governing the Notes contains certain restrictions that limit our Companys ability to
(1) incur, assume or guarantee additional debt, (2) pay dividends and make other restricted payments, (3) create liens, (4) use the proceeds from sales of assets and subsidiary stock, (5) enter into sale and leaseback
transactions, (6) enter into agreements that restrict dividends from subsidiaries, (7) change our business, (8) enter into transactions with affiliates and (9) transfer all or substantially all of our assets or enter into merger
or consolidation transactions. The indenture governing the Notes also requires us to make an offer to repurchase the Notes at 101.00% of the principal amount following a change of control of our Company, and at 100.00% of the principal amount with
the proceeds of certain sales of assets and subsidiary stock.

Subject to certain exceptions, the indenture governing the
Notes permits our Company and our restricted subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, including senior indebtedness and secured indebtedness. In addition, the indenture will not limit the amount of indebtedness that our direct or indirect
parent entities, including EB Sports and RBG, may incur.

The ABL Facility

Concurrent with the issuance of the Notes on December 3, 2009, our Company entered into a $250,000 senior secured asset-based
revolving credit facility, subject to availability under each of a United States and Canadian borrowing base, which the amount, subject to certain conditions, may be increased to allow borrowings of up to $300,000, together with certain of our
subsidiaries as Canadian Borrowers (as defined therein) or Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined therein), with the lenders party thereto, or the ABL Facility. The unused portion of the ABL Facility (subject to borrowing base availability) may be drawn
from time-to-time for general corporate purposes (including permitted acquisitions) and working capital needs. At October 2, 2010, our Company had $35,893 outstanding under the ABL facility and $149,347 in loan availability.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)

(Unaudited and amounts in thousands, except as specified)





Certain of our
Companys wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, and all subsidiaries that guarantee the Notes (currently only our wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries), guarantee all of our obligations (both United States and Canadian) under the ABL Facility. In
addition, our wholly-owned Canadian subsidiaries guarantee the obligation of the Canadian borrowings under the Canadian sub-facility under the ABL Facility. Additionally, we and our wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions,
grant security with respect to substantially all of our personal property as collateral for our obligations (and related guarantees) under the ABL Facility, including a first-priority security interest in cash and cash equivalents, lockbox and
deposit accounts, accounts receivable, inventory, other personal property relating to such inventory and accounts receivable and all proceeds therefrom and a second-priority security interest in substantially all of our equipment and all assets that
secure the Notes on a first-priority basis. The obligations of our Canadian subsidiaries that are borrowers under the Canadian sub-facility of the ABL Facility are secured, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens, on a first-priority lien
basis, by substantially all of the assets of our wholly-owned Canadian subsidiaries and our domestic subsidiaries assets on the same basis as borrowings under the ABL Facility. At October 2, 2010, we had no balance outstanding under the
Canadian ABL facility.

The interest rates per annum applicable to the loans under the ABL Facility, other than swingline
loans and protective advances, equal an applicable margin percentage plus, at our option, (1) in the case of United States dollar denominated loans, a U.S. base rate or LIBOR, and (2) in the case of Canadian dollar denominated
loans, a Canadian base rate, or CDOR. Swingline loans and protective advances bear interest at the U.S. base rate for United States dollar denominated loans and the Canadian base rate for Canadian dollar denominated loans. The applicable margin
percentage for the ABL Facility is initially 3.75% for LIBOR or CDOR and 2.75% for the base rate, which is subject to adjustment to 3.25% for LIBOR or CDOR and 2.25% for the base rate based upon our average excess borrowing availability as
calculated under the credit agreement for the ABL Facility. In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal under the ABL Facility, we are required to pay a commitment fee, in relation to the unutilized commitments, which is initially
0.75% per annum and may be adjusted to 0.50% based upon our utilization of the ABL Facility (increasing when utilization is lower and decreasing when utilization is higher). We are also required to pay customary letter of credit fees.

The ABL Facility requires that if excess gross availability is less than the greater of a specified percentage of the gross
borrowing base and a specified dollar amount, we must comply with a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio test. In addition, the ABL Facility includes negative covenants that, subject to significant exceptions, limit our ability and the ability of RBG
and its subsidiaries, including the Company, to, among other things, (1) incur additional debt, (2) create liens, (3) transfer all or substantially all of their assets or enter into merger or consolidation transactions,
(4) change their business, (5) make investments, loans, advances, guarantees and acquisitions, (6) transfer or sell assets, (7) enter into sale and leaseback transactions, (8) enter into swap agreements, (9) enter into
transactions with affiliates and (10) enter into agreements that restrict dividends from subsidiaries.

Other

Our Company has arrangements with various banks to issue standby letters of credit or similar instruments, which
guarantee our obligations for the purchase of certain inventories and for potential claims exposure for insurance coverage. At October 2, 2010 and January 2, 2010, outstanding letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facilities
totaled $3,306 and $3,406, respectively. The amount of unused lines of credit at October 2, 2010 and January 2, 2010, were $149,347 and $119,962, respectively.

Cash payments for interest were $5,546 and $9,832 for the fiscal quarters ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, respectively. For the first three fiscal quarters of 2010 and 2009, cash
payments for interest were $23,536 and $25,677, respectively. We amortized $751 and $894 of debt issuance costs during the third fiscal quarters of 2010 and 2009, respectively. For the first three fiscal quarters of 2010 and 2009, we amortized
$2,255 and $2,683 of debt issuance costs, respectively.

6. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06 to amend the topic of Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. As a result of this ASU, our Company is required to disclose separately the
amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and the related reasoning for the transfer. Also included in the new disclosure requirements is the separate presentation of purchases, sales, issuances
and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation for significant unobservable inputs, or Level 3 inputs. Further, this ASU clarifies existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation and about inputs and valuation
techniques used to measure fair value for either Level 2 or Level 3 measurements. The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009,
except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll-forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. These Level 3 specific disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2010 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of the disclosures required for our Company during the first fiscal quarter of 2010 did not have a material impact on our Companys financial statement
disclosures. Our Company is evaluating the impact of the additional disclosures required for our 2011 filings relating to the Level 3 requirements.

7. Segment Reporting

Our Company has two reportable segments: Team Sports
and Action Sports. Our Team Sports segment primarily consists of football, baseball, softball, ice hockey and other team sports products and reconditioning services related to certain of these products. Our Action Sports segment consists primarily
of helmets, equipment, components and accessories for cycling, snowsports and powersports and fitness related products. Our Company evaluates segment performance primarily based on income from operations excluding equity compensation expense,
management expenses, restructuring and other infrequent expenses, amortization of intangibles and corporate expenses. Our selling, general and administrative expenses, excluding corporate expenses, are charged to each segment based on where the
expenses are incurred. Segment income from operations as presented by our Company may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. As a result, the components of income from operations for one segment may not be comparable
to another segment.

8. Product Liability, Litigation and Other Contingencies

Product Liability

Our Company is subject to various product liability claims and/or suits brought against us for claims involving damages for personal injuries or deaths. Allegedly, these injuries or deaths relate to the
use by claimants of products manufactured by our Company and, in certain cases, products manufactured by others. The ultimate outcome of these claims, or potential future claims, cannot be determined. Our management obtains an actuarial analysis and
has established an accrual for probable losses based on this analysis, which considers, among other factors, our previous claims history and available information on alleged claims. However, due to the uncertainty involved with estimates, actual
results could vary substantially from those estimates.

(Unaudited and amounts in thousands, except as specified)





Our Company
maintains product liability insurance coverage under various policies. These policies provide coverage against claims resulting from alleged injuries sustained during the respective policy periods, subject to policy terms and conditions. The primary
portion of our product liability coverage is written under a policy expiring in July 2011 with a $2,000 limit per occurrence excess of a $1,000, $50 and $500 self-insured retention for helmets, soft goods and all other products, respectively. Our
Companys first layer excess policy is written under a liability policy with a limit of $25,000 excess of $3,000 expiring in January 2011. We also carry a second layer excess liability policy providing an additional limit of $15,000 excess of
$28,000 expiring January 2011, for a total limit of $43,000.

In the opinion of our management, amounts accrued for exposures
relating to product liability claims and other legal proceedings are adequate and, accordingly, the ultimate resolution of these matters is not expected to have a material effect on our Companys consolidated financial statements. As of
October 2, 2010, our Company had no known probable but inestimable exposures relating to product liability or other legal proceedings that are expected to have a material effect on our Company. There can be no assurance, however, that
unanticipated events will not require our Company to increase the amount it has accrued for any matter or accrue for a matter that has not been previously accrued because it was not considered probable.

Litigation and Other Contingencies

In addition to the matters discussed in the preceding paragraphs, our Company is a party to various non-product liability legal claims and actions incidental to our business, including without limitation,
claims relating to intellectual property as well as employment related matters. For example, a judgment was recently rendered against us in a patent infringement proceeding relating to certain of our skate boots. However, we do not believe that such
judgment or any other claims or actions, either individually or in the aggregate, are material to our business or financial condition.

9.
Income Taxes

Our Company recorded income tax expenses of $7,935 and $8,100 for the first three fiscal quarters ended
October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009, respectively. Our Companys effective tax rate was 49.6% for the first three fiscal quarters of 2010, as compared to 42.1% for the first three fiscal quarters of 2009. For the first three fiscal
quarters ended October 2, 2010, the difference between the effective rate and the statutory rate is primarily attributable to the permanent difference for equity compensation expense and state taxes. For the first three fiscal quarters ended
October 3, 2009, the difference between the effective rate and the statutory rate is primarily attributable to the permanent difference for equity compensation expense.

10. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity

Our Company accounts for
all derivatives on the balance sheet as an asset or liability measured at fair value and changes in fair values are recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met for cash flow or net investment hedges. If such
hedge accounting criteria are met, the change is deferred in stockholders equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss). The deferred items are recognized in the period the derivative contract is settled. As of
October 2, 2010, we had not designated any of our derivative instruments as hedges, and therefore, have recorded the changes in fair value in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.

In 2008, our Company entered an interest rate swap agreement with Wachovia Bank, N.A. The interest rate swap had an initial fixed USD
LIBOR of 2.921%, and was subsequently revised to a fixed USD LIBOR of 2.811% for the period commencing October 15, 2008, through April 14, 2010 and thereafter a fixed USD LIBOR of 2.921% until the expiration of the agreement on
April 15, 2011. The swap had a notional amount of $275,000 which decreased to $250,000 on April 15, 2009 and decreased to $225,000 on April 15, 2010. The settlement dates for the swap occurred monthly on the 15th of each month
commencing November 17, 2008 through April 15, 2010 and thereafter quarterly on the 15th of each July, October, January and April until the expiration of the agreement on April 15, 2011. On December 4, 2009, we entered
into an amended and restated swap transaction confirmation with Wachovia Bank, N.A., pursuant to which we agreed to repay $5,982 on December 7, 2009, which was a portion of the outstanding amount owed under the interest rate swap agreement, and
the swap notional amount was reduced to $60,000. On December 7, 2009, our Company, Wachovia Bank, N.A. and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. entered into a novation confirmation pursuant to which Wachovia Bank, N.A. transferred its position under the
revised swap to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. The settlement dates for the revised swap occurred on the 15th of each month commencing December 15, 2009 through April 15, 2010 and thereafter quarterly on the 15th of each July,
October, January and April until the expiration of the agreement on April 15, 2011. The swap agreement is not designated as a hedge, and therefore is recorded at fair value at each balance sheet date, with the resulting changes in fair
value charged or credited to interest expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income each period.

Our Company uses a
fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels, which are described below:

Level 1:Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1
inputs.

Level 2:Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but
corroborated by market data.

Level 3:Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data
is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

In determining fair value, our
Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.

At October 2, 2010, the swap fair value was determined through the use of a model that considers various assumptions, including time
value, yield curves, as well as other relevant economic measures, which are inputs that are classified as Level 2 from a third party bank. The fair value of the swap was a liability of $832 and $1,585 at October 2, 2010 and January 2,
2010, respectively, and is recorded in the non-current portion of other liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets with the corresponding charge to interest expense. During the third fiscal quarter of 2010, interest expense reflects
$350 related to the swap and a credit of $243 related to the change in the fair value of the swap. During the first three fiscal quarters of 2010, interest expense reflects $1,134 related to the swap and a credit of $753 related to the change in the
fair value of the swap.

Our Company has foreign currency exchange forward contracts in place to reduce our risk related to
inventory purchases and foreign currency based accounts receivable. These contracts are not designated as hedges, and therefore, under current accounting standards are recorded at fair value at each balance sheet date, with the resulting change
charged or credited to selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.

The foreign currency exchange forward contracts in aggregated notional amounts in place to exchange United States dollars at October 2, 2010 and January 2, 2010 were as follows:

As of October 2,
2010 and January 2, 2010, the fair value of the foreign currency exchange forward contracts, using Level 2 inputs from a third party bank, represented a liability of approximately $379 and $1,837, respectively. Changes in the fair value of the
foreign currency exchange forward contracts are reflected in selling, general and administrative expenses each period.

Fair Value
of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts reported in our Companys Consolidated Balance Sheets for
Cash and cash equivalents, Accounts receivable, net and Accounts payable approximates fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The fair value amount of long-term
debt under our Companys Notes are based on quoted market prices for the same or similar issues on borrowing rates available to our Company for loans with similar terms and average maturities.

The estimated fair values of our Companys long-term debt including accrued interest were as follows:

11. Equity-Based Employee
Compensation

On March 16, 2006, our Parent adopted the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan, or the Incentive Plan. Our Parent
amended the Incentive Plan in December 2009 to allow for certain new grants. The Incentive Plan provides for the issuance of Class B Common Units of our Parent, or Units, which are intended to be profit interests. Such Units qualify as equity
instruments of our Parent. The holders of these Units are entitled to share in the distribution of profits above a certain threshold, or the distribution threshold. For any particular such Unit, the distribution threshold is the fair value of a
Class A Common Unit of our Parent on the date of grant. Our Parent has made grants of these Units pursuant to the Incentive Plan since its adoption. Generally, so long as the Unit holder is employed or remains a member of the board of managers
of our Parent, these Units vest over time (generally a four-year period) or upon achievement of certain company performance goals. Subject to certain conditions, Units are also eligible to vest in the event of an initial public offering or change of
control. In December 2009, our Parent issued new Units and amended certain existing Units, which, in each case, are eligible, subject to certain conditions, for additional distributions from our Parent in the event that certain company performance
goals are met through 2012. In addition, in December 2009, our Parent agreed to amend and restate certain existing Units to revise the distribution threshold of such Units to an amount commensurate with the then fair market value of a Class A
Common Unit. As of October 2, 2010, there were 105,152,751 Units authorized for grant pursuant to the Incentive Plan.

Our Company uses the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model to determine the fair value of the Units granted, similar to an equity Stock
Appreciation Right or SAR. This model uses such factors as the market price of the underlying Units at date of issuance, a fair market value of $1.32 for Units issued during the third fiscal quarter of 2010 and the expected term of the Unit, which
is approximately two to three years, utilizing the simplified method. The weighted average grant date fair value of Units granted during the third fiscal quarter of 2010 amounted to $0.19. During the third fiscal quarter of 2009, no Units were
granted.

During the fiscal quarter ended October 2, 2010, the following assumptions were used in the Black-Scholes
Option Pricing Model to value the Units:



|                        |  |                                     |              |

|(1) | Expected volatility is based upon a peer group of companies given no historical data for the Units.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our Company records compensation expense using the fair value of the Units granted with time vesting over the vesting service period on a
straight-line basis. Compensation expense for the performance based vesting Units is recognized when it becomes probable that the performance conditions will be met. As of October 2, 2010, we have not recognized any compensation expense for the
performance based vesting Units as it is not probable that the performance conditions will be met.

As of October 2, 2010, there was $18,924 of unrecognized compensation costs, net of actual and
estimated forfeitures related to the Units. This was comprised of $5,393 related to time based vesting Units and $13,531 related to the performance based vesting Units. The unrecognized cost related to the time based vesting Units is expected to be
amortized over a weighted average service period of approximately 2 years. The unrecognized cost related to the performance based vesting Units will be recognized when it becomes probable that the performance conditions will be met.

12. Warranty Obligations

The Company records a product warranty obligation at the time of sale based on the Companys historical experience. The Company estimates its warranty obligation by reference to historical product
warranty return rates, material usage and service delivery costs incurred in correcting the product. Should actual product warranty return rates, replacement product costs or service delivery costs differ from the historical rates, revisions to the
estimated warranty liability would be required.

The following is a reconciliation of the changes in the Companys
product warranty liability for the first three fiscal quarters ended October 2, 2010 and October 3, 2009:

14. Supplemental Guarantor Condensed Financial Information

In September 2004, in connection with the acquisition of Bell, our Company (presented as issuer in the following tables) issued $140,000
of 8.375% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012, or the Previous Notes. The Previous Notes were guaranteed by all of our domestic subsidiaries. In December 2009, in connection with the Refinancing, we issued the Notes. As part of the Refinancing,
the Previous Notes were redeemed. The indenture governing the Notes contains certain restrictions on us, including restrictions on our ability to incur indebtedness, pay dividends, grant liens, sell assets and engage in certain other activities. The
Notes are guaranteed by all of our domestic subsidiaries, or Guarantors. Each subsidiary guarantor is wholly owned and the guarantees are full and unconditional and joint and several. All other subsidiaries of our Company, or Non-Guarantors, do not
guarantee the Notes.

The following condensed consolidating financial statements present the results of operations, financial
position and cash flows of (i) Issuer, (ii) Guarantors, (iii) Non-Guarantors and (iv) eliminations to arrive at the information for our Company on a consolidated basis for the third fiscal quarter of 2010 and the respective
comparable periods for fiscal 2009. Separate financial statements and other disclosures concerning the Guarantors are not presented because our management does not believe such information is material to investors. Therefore, each of the Guarantors
is combined in the presentation below.

OVERVIEW

We are a
leading designer, developer and marketer of branded sports equipment, protective products and related accessories. We offer products that are used in baseball, softball, ice hockey, football, lacrosse and other team sports, and in various action
sports, including cycling, snowsports, powersports and skateboarding. Sports enthusiasts at all levels, from recreational participants to professional athletes, choose our products for their innovative designs and advanced materials, which provide a
performance or protective advantage. Throughout our history, our focus on research and development has enabled us to introduce attractive and innovative products, many of which have set new standards for performance in their respective sports. As a
result, we are able to consistently enter new product categories and expand and improve our existing product lines.

We currently sell a broad range of products primarily under four well-known brandsEaston®(baseball, softball and ice hockey equipment, apparel and cycling components), Bell®(cycling and action sports helmets and accessories), Giro®(cycling and snowsports helmets and accessories) and Riddell®(football equipment and reconditioning services). Together, these brands represent the vast majority of our revenues. We believe that our brands are among the most
recognized in the sporting goods industry as demonstrated by our leading market share in many of our core categories.

We sell
our products through diverse channels of distribution including: (i) specialty retailers that cater to sports enthusiasts who typically seek premium products at the highest performance levels, (ii) national and regional full-line sporting
goods retailers and distributors, (iii) institutional buyers such as educational institutions and athletic leagues and (iv) mass retailers that offer a focused selection of products at entry-level and mid-level price points. As a function
of our flexible, low fixed-cost production model, we are able to leverage the expertise of our vendor partners to reduce the overhead and capital intensity generally associated with manufacturing.

We have two reportable segments: Team Sports and Action Sports. Our Team Sports segment primarily consists of football, baseball,
softball, ice hockey and other team sports products and reconditioning services related to certain of these products. Our Action Sports segment primarily consists of helmets, equipment, components and accessories for cycling, snowsports and
powersports and fitness related products.

How We Assess
the Performance of Our Business

In assessing the performance of our business, we consider a variety of performance and
financial measures. The key measures for determining how our business is performing are net sales growth by segment, gross profit and selling, general and administrative expenses.

Net Sales

Net sales reflect our revenues from the sale of our products and services less returns, discounts and allowances. It also includes
licensing income that we collect. Substantially all of Eastons activity and all of Riddells activity is reflected in our Team Sports segment, which primarily consists of football, baseball, softball, ice hockey and other team sports
products and reconditioning services related to certain of these products. All of Bells activity, including the Bellbrand and theGiro brand and the Eastonbranded cycling products, are reflected in our Action
Sports segment, which primarily consists of helmets, equipment, components and accessories for cycling, snowsports and powersports and fitness related products.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales includes the direct cost of purchased
merchandise, inbound freight, factory operating costs (including depreciation), warranty costs, distribution and shipping expenses, including outbound freight. Cost of sales generally changes as we incur higher or lower costs from our vendors,
experience better or worse productivity in our factories and increase or decrease inventory levels as certain fixed overhead is included in inventory. A shift in the composition of our net sales can also result in higher or lower cost of sales as
our gross profit margins differ by product. We review our inventory levels on an ongoing basis to identify slow-moving materials and products and generally reserve for excess and obsolete inventory. If we misjudge the market for our products, we may
be faced with significant excess inventory and need to allow for higher charges for excess and obsolete inventory. Such charges have reduced our gross profit in some prior periods and may have a material adverse impact depending on the amount of the
charge.

Gross Profit

Gross profit is equal to our net sales minus our cost of sales. Gross profit margin measures gross profit as a percentage of our net sales. We state inventories at the lower of cost (determined on a
first-in, first-out basis) or market and include material, labor and factory overhead costs. Our gross profit may not be fully comparable to other sporting goods companies, as we include costs related to distribution and freight in cost of sales.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative, or SG&A, expenses include all operating expenses not included in cost of sales, primarily, selling, marketing, administrative payroll, research and development,
product liability, insurance and non-manufacturing lease expense, as well as certain depreciation and amortization. Other than selling expenses, these expenses generally do not vary proportionally with net sales. As a result, SG&A expenses as a
percentage of net sales are usually higher in the winter season than the summer season due to the seasonality of net sales.

Factors Affecting our Business

Outlook

Although other factors will likely impact us, including some we do
not foresee, we believe our performance for the remainder of 2010 may be affected by the following:



| |  |  | Economic Climate. The uncertain worldwide economic environment could cause the reported financial information not to be indicative of
future operating results or of future financial condition. The current economic environment continues to affect our business in a number of direct and indirect ways including: lower net sales from slowing consumer demand for certain of our products;
tighter inventory management by retailers; reduced profit margins due to pricing pressures and an unfavorable sales mix due to a higher concentration of sales of mid to lower price point products; changes in currency exchange rates; lack of credit
availability, particularly for specialty retailers; and business disruptions due to difficulties experienced by suppliers and customers.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Retail Market Conditions. As a result of the slowing worldwide economic conditions, the retail market for sports equipment has slowed and
is extremely competitive, with strong pressure from retailers for lower prices. We have experienced the effect of consumers trading down price points and delaying certain discretionary purchases, which has resulted in retailers reluctance to
place orders for inventory in advance of selling seasons. Further, institutional customers have reduced or deferred purchases due to budget constraints. These trends may continue to have a negative impact on our businesses. We continue to address
the retail environment through our focus on innovation and product development and emphasis on multiple price points.

| |  |  | Operations and Manufacturing. We intend to continue to streamline distribution, logistics and manufacturing operations, bring uniform
methodologies to inventory management, optimize transportation, improve manufacturing efficiencies and provide a high level of service to our customers. Over a several year period we have transitioned production of certain products from our
facilities to third party vendors in Asia and other cost efficient sources of labor. However, as a result of our transition of the production of products from our own facilities to third party suppliers, we may become more vulnerable to higher
levels of product defects, as well as increased sourced product costs and our ability to mitigate such cost increases may be reduced. In addition, general manufacturing disruptions outside of our control may limit our ability to obtain products on a
timely basis or in sufficient quantities.

| |  |  | Interest Expense and Debt Repayment. In connection with the Refinancing, we entered into a $250.0 million senior secured asset-based
revolving credit facility, subject to availability under each of a United States and Canadian borrowing base, which amount, subject to certain conditions, may be increased to allow borrowings of up to $300.0 million, together with certain of our
subsidiaries as Canadian Borrowers (as defined therein) or Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined therein), with the lenders party thereto, or the ABL Facility. As of October 2, 2010, the outstanding principal balance under the ABL Facility was
$35.9 million. In addition, we have $350.0 million of outstanding principal amount of our 9.750% Senior Secured Notes due December 2016, or the Notes. Because our existing indebtedness requires that we use a substantial portion of our cash flows to
service debt payments, the amount of available cash flows we will have for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes could be limited.

| |  |  | Seasonality. Our business is subject to seasonal fluctuation. Sales of cycling products, baseball and softball products and accessories
occur primarily during the warm weather months. Sales of football equipment and reconditioning services are driven primarily by football buying patterns, where orders begin at the end of the school football season (December) and run through to the
start of the next season (August). Shipments of football products and performance of reconditioning services reach a low point during the football season. Sales of ice hockey equipment are driven by ice hockey buying patterns with orders shipping in
late spring for fall play. Seasonal impacts are increasingly mitigated by the increase in snowsports and powersports sales which, to a certain extent, counter the cycling, baseball, softball and football seasons.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon the consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles, or GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, management evaluates estimates, including those related to reserves, intangible assets, income taxes and contingencies. Management bases these estimates on historical experience and on various other
assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Revenue Recognition. Sales of products are recognized when title passes and risks of ownership have been transferred to our customer. Title generally passes to the dealer or distributor upon
shipment from our facilities and the risk of loss upon damage, theft or destruction of the product in transit is generally the responsibility of the dealer, distributor or third party carrier. Reconditioning revenue is recognized upon the completion
of services. Allowances for sales returns, discounts and allowances, including volume-based customer incentives, are estimated and recorded concurrent with the recognition of the sale. Royalty income, which is not material, is recorded when earned
based upon contract terms with licensees which provide for royalties.

Accounts Receivable and Allowances. We
review the financial condition and creditworthiness of potential customers prior to contracting for sales and record accounts receivable at their face value upon completion of the sale to our customers. We record an allowance for doubtful accounts
based upon managements estimate of the amount of uncollectible receivables. This estimate is based upon prior experience including historic losses as well as current economic conditions. The estimates can be affected by changes in the retail
industry, customer credit issues and customer bankruptcies. Since we cannot predict future changes in the retail industry and financial stability of our customers, actual future losses from uncollectible accounts may differ from our estimates. If
the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make payments, a larger allowance might be required. In the event we determine that a smaller or larger allowance is appropriate, we would record a credit
or a charge to selling, general and administrative expense in the period in which such a determination is made. Uncollectible receivables are written-off once management has determined that further collection efforts will not be successful. We
generally do not require collateral from our customers.

Inventories. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined on a first-in, first-out basis) or market and include
material, labor and factory overhead. Provisions for excess and obsolete inventories are based on managements assessment of slow-moving and obsolete inventory on a product-by-product basis. We record adjustments to our inventory for estimated
obsolescence or a decrease in market value equal to the difference between the cost of the inventory and the estimated market value, based on market conditions. These adjustments are estimates, which could vary significantly, either favorably or
unfavorably, from actual experience if future economic conditions, levels of consumer demand, customer inventory levels or competitive conditions differ from our expectations. If changes in economic or market conditions result in reductions in the
estimated net realizable value of our inventory below our previous estimate, we would increase our reserve in the period in which we made such a determination and record a corresponding charge to cost of sales.

Long-lived and intangible assets. We follow the current accounting guidance relating to goodwill and trademarks, whereby assets
which have indefinite lives are not amortized, but rather are reviewed periodically for indications of impairment. The carrying values of all long-lived assets, excluding goodwill and indefinite lived intangibles, are reviewed for impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets may not be recoverable (such as a significant decline in sales, earnings or cash flows or material adverse changes in the business climate) in
accordance with current accounting guidelines. An impairment loss is recognized when the undiscounted future cash flows estimated to be generated by the asset to be held and used are not sufficient to recover the unamortized balance of the asset.
The impairment review includes a comparison of future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or group of assets with their associated carrying value. If the carrying value of the asset or group of assets exceeds expected cash flows
(undiscounted and without interest charges), an impairment loss would be recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the fair value. The estimate of future cash flows is based upon, among other things, certain assumptions about expected
future operating performance. These estimates of undiscounted cash flows may differ from actual cash flows due to, among other things, changes in general economic conditions, customer requirements and our business model. For goodwill, on an annual
basis or more frequently if certain conditions exist, the fair values of our reporting units are compared with their carrying values and an impairment loss is recognized if the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds fair value to the extent that
the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its fair value. We generally base our measurement of the fair value of a reporting unit on the present value of future discounted cash flows. The discounted cash flows model indicates the fair value of each
reporting unit based on the present value of the cash flows that we expect each reporting unit to generate in the future. Our significant estimates in the discounted cash flows model include our weighted average cost of capital, long-term rate of
growth and profitability of each reporting unit and working capital effects. The growth and profitability rates are based on our expectations for the markets in which we operate and cost increases that are reflective of anticipated inflation
(deflation) adjusted for any anticipated future cost savings and our discount rate is based on our weighted average cost of capital. In our most recent impairment analysis, we used a weighted average long-term cash flow growth rate of 4.3% and a
discount rate of 9.4%. While revenue growth in the year ended January 2, 2010 was negatively impacted by the adverse worldwide economic environment, our weighted average long-term growth rate reflects our expectation that our future cash flows
will increase as overall economic conditions improve. The fair value of the reporting units could change significantly due to changes in estimates of future cash flows as a result of changing economic conditions, our business environment and as a
result of changes in the discount rate used.

Our analysis of goodwill impairment performed as of January 2, 2010
indicated that none of the reporting units were at risk of failing the goodwill impairment test. If reductions in estimated undiscounted or discounted cash flows occur in the future, and such reductions indicate that an impairment loss has occurred,
an impairment loss will be recorded in the reporting period that such a determination is made.

We amortize certain
definite-lived acquired intangible assets on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of seven to nineteen years for patents, seven to twenty years for customer relationships, four to five years for licensing and other agreements and seven
years for finite-lived trademarks and tradenames. Deferred financing costs are being amortized by the straight-line method over the term of the related debt, which does not vary significantly from an effective interest method.

Income Taxes. We follow the provisions of Topic 740, Income Taxes.Deferred tax liabilities and
assets are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement
and tax bases of assets and liabilities (excluding non-deductible goodwill) using enacted tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to become recoverable or payable. A portion of our deferred tax assets relate to net
operating loss carryforwards. The realization of these assets is based upon estimates of future taxable income. Changes in economic conditions and the business environment and our assumptions regarding realization of deferred tax assets can have a
significant effect on income tax expense, and may result in the recognition of an additional income tax expense in the period such a change occurs.

Product Liability
Litigation Matters and Contingencies. We are subject to various product liability claims and/or suits brought against us for claims involving damages for personal injuries or deaths. Allegedly, these injuries or deaths relate to the use by
claimants of products manufactured or reconditioned by us or our subsidiaries and, in certain cases, products manufactured by others. The ultimate outcome of these claims, or potential future claims, cannot currently be determined with certainty. We
estimate the uninsured portion of probable future costs and expenses related to claims, as well as incurred but not reported claims and record an accrual in this amount on our consolidated balance sheets. These accruals are based on
managements best estimate of probable losses and defense costs anticipated to result from such claims, from within a range of potential outcomes, based on available information, including an analysis provided by an independent actuarial
services firm, previous claims history and available information on alleged claims. However, due to the uncertainty involved with estimates, actual results could vary substantially from these estimates, and may result in an increase or decrease in
expense in the period such an uncertainty is resolved.

Derivative Instruments and HedgingActivity. We
account for all derivatives on the balance sheet as an asset or liability measured at fair value and changes in fair values are recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met for cash flow or net investment
hedges. If such hedge accounting criteria are met, the change is deferred in stockholders equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss). The deferred items are recognized in the period the derivative contract is settled.
We enter into foreign currency exchange forward contracts to reduce our risk related to inventory purchases. We also have an interest rate swap agreement. As of October 2, 2010, we had not designated any of our derivative instruments as hedges,
and therefore, have recorded the changes in fair value in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.

Warranty Liability. We record our warranty obligations by reference to historical product warranty return rates, material
usage and service delivery costs incurred in correcting the product. Should actual product warranty return rates, material usage or service delivery costs differ from the historical rates, revisions to the estimated warranty liability would be
required.

Equity-Based Compensation. Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted accounting standards which
requires us to expense Class B Common Units of our Parent, or Units, granted under our Parents 2006 Equity Incentive Plan, or the Incentive Plan, based upon the fair market value of the Units on the date of grant. We are amortizing the
fair market value of Units granted over the vesting period of the Units and we are using the prospective method of adoption.

For the third fiscal quarter of 2010, Team Sports net sales increased primarily due to higher
sales of football equipment, baseball and softball catchers protective equipment and batting helmets, ice hockey protective equipment, helmets and skates and the performance of reconditioning services, partially offset by lower sales of ice
hockey sticks. Action Sports net sales increased primarily due to higher sales of snow sports helmets and goggles, powersports helmets and cycling components and accessories, partially offset by lower sales of licensed youth cycling helmets. Net
sales in Team Sports during the third quarter of 2010 were positively impacted by favorable foreign currency exchange rate movements of $1.1 million and increased $10.2 million, or 11.2% on a constant currency basis. The impact of foreign currency
exchange rate movements on Action Sports net sales was insignificant during the third quarter of 2010.

For the first three
fiscal quarters of 2010, Team Sports net sales increased primarily due to higher sales of football equipment, baseball and softball equipment, ice hockey protective equipment and helmets, collectible football helmets and the performance of
reconditioning services, partially offset by lower sales of ice hockey skates. Action Sports net sales increased primarily due to higher sales of lower price point cycling helmets and accessories, snowsports helmets and goggles and cycling
components, partially offset by lower sales of higher price point cycling helmets and licensed youth cycling helmets. Net sales in Team Sports and Action Sports during the first three fiscal quarters of 2010 were positively impacted by favorable
foreign currency exchange rate movements of $6.9 million and $1.5 million, respectively. On a constant currency basis, net sales in Team Sports increased $24.4 million, or 8.1%, and net sales in Action Sports increased by $10.4 million, or
4.1%.

For the third fiscal quarter of 2010, the increase in Team Sports cost of sales as a percentage of
net sales primarily relates to higher sales of youth football equipment and lower priced ice hockey sticks, increased licensing fees paid on replica helmets, labor and material inefficiencies in our football operations and close-out sales of apparel
items, partially offset by sales of higher priced baseball and softball bats, lower sourced product costs and improved manufacturing efficiencies and favorable foreign currency exchange rates. For the first three fiscal quarters of 2010, the
decrease in Team Sports cost of sales as a percentage of net sales primarily relates to sales of higher priced baseball and softball bats and ice hockey sticks, lower sourced product costs, improved manufacturing efficiencies and favorable foreign
currency exchange rates, partially offset by higher sales of youth football equipment, increased licensing fees paid on replica helmets and close-out sales of apparel items.

The decrease in Action Sports cost of sales as a percentage of net sales in the third fiscal quarter and first three fiscal quarters of 2010 primarily relates to lower sourced product costs, lower returns
and inventory write-downs of mass channel products and favorable foreign currency exchange rates, partially offset by higher inventory write-downs and closeout sales of specialty channel products.

For the third fiscal quarter of 2010, the decrease in Team Sports gross margin primarily relates
to higher sales of youth football equipment and lower priced ice hockey sticks, increased licensing fees paid on replica helmets, labor and material inefficiencies in our football operations and close-out sales of apparel items, partially offset by
sales of higher priced baseball and softball bats, lower sourced product costs and improved manufacturing efficiencies and favorable foreign currency exchange rates. For the first three fiscal quarters of 2010, the increase in Team Sports gross
margin primarily relates to sales of higher priced baseball and softball bats and ice hockey sticks, lower sourced product costs, improved manufacturing efficiencies and favorable foreign currency exchange rates, partially offset by higher sales of
youth football equipment, increased licensing fees paid on replica helmets and close-out sales of apparel items.

The increase
in Action Sports gross margin in the third fiscal quarter and first three fiscal quarters of 2010, primarily relates to lower sourced product costs, lower returns and inventory write-downs of mass channel products and favorable foreign currency
exchange rates, partially offset by higher inventory write-downs and closeout sales of specialty channel products.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

SG&A expenses increased $8.6 million or 21.3% for the third fiscal quarter of 2010, as compared to the third fiscal quarter of 2009. The increase in SG&A expenses relates primarily to increased
variable compensation expense of $4.1 million as a result of increased profitability; increased marketing expenses of $2.2 million for investments in product, marketing and brand initiatives and personnel; increased variable selling expenses of $0.8
million to support the higher sales; increased depreciation of $0.7 million related to information technology capital expenditures; and expenses paid in connection with employee recruitment, relocation and severance of $0.5 million, partially offset
by $0.5 million of reduced bad debt write-offs due to improved collections.

For the first three fiscal quarters of 2010,
SG&A expenses increased $14.7 million or 11.3%, as compared to the first three fiscal quarters of 2009. The increase in SG&A expenses relates primarily to increased variable compensation expense of $5.6 million as a result of increased
profitability; increased marketing expenses of $3.6 million for investments in product, marketing and brand initiatives and personnel; increased variable selling expenses of $2.0 million related to higher sales; increased legal and product liability
expenses of $1.8 million due to defense and settlement of product liability and patent infringement claims; increased depreciation of $1.8 million related to information technology capital expenditures; lacrosse development costs of $1.4 million
related to the Companys upcoming entrance into the lacrosse business; and $0.8 million to recruit and relocate management personnel; all of which were partially offset by a $0.9 million credit related to mark-to-market adjustment for foreign
currency exchange forward contracts.

Amortization of Intangibles

Amortization of intangibles was $2.6 million for the third fiscal quarter of 2010, as compared to $3.4 million for the third fiscal
quarter of 2009. For the first three fiscal quarters of 2010, amortization of intangibles was $9.2 million, as compared to $10.0 million for the first three fiscal quarters of 2009. The decrease for both periods is due to a portion of intangible
assets in the Team Sports segment becoming fully amortized in 2010.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased $3.6 million during the third fiscal quarter of 2010, as compared to the third fiscal quarter of 2009. For the
first three fiscal quarters of 2010, interest expense increased $10.2 million, as compared to the first three fiscal quarters of 2009. The increase relates to higher borrowing costs incurred subsequent to the Refinancing which negatively impacted
the first three fiscal quarters of 2010, as compared to the first three fiscal quarters of 2009, partially offset by a lower balance of debt outstanding.

Income Tax
Expense

Income tax expense was $3.9 million for the third fiscal quarter of 2010, as compared to an income tax expense
of $4.3 million for the third fiscal quarter of 2009. The effective tax rate was 56.4% for the third fiscal quarter of 2010, as compared to 40.6% for the third fiscal quarter of 2009. For the third fiscal quarter of 2010, the difference between the
effective rate and the statutory rate is primarily attributable to the permanent difference for equity compensation expense and state taxes. For the third fiscal quarter of 2009, the difference between the effective rate and the statutory rate is
primarily attributable to the permanent difference for equity compensation expense.

For the first three fiscal quarters of
2010 and 2009, income tax expense was $7.9 million and $8.1 million, respectively. The effective tax rate was 49.6% for the first three fiscal quarters of 2010, as compared to 42.1% for the first three fiscal quarters of 2009. For the first three
fiscal quarters of 2010, the difference between the effective rate and the statutory rate is primarily attributable to the permanent difference for equity compensation expense and state taxes. For the first three fiscal quarters of 2009, the
difference between the effective rate and the statutory rate is primarily attributable to the permanent difference for equity compensation expense.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our financing requirements are subject to
variations due to seasonal changes in working capital levels. Internally generated funds are supplemented when necessary from external sources, primarily from the ABL Facility. The cash generated from operating activities, the issuance of the Notes
offered on December 3, 2009 and the availability under the new ABL Facility are our principal sources of liquidity. Each is described below. Based on our current level of operations and anticipated cost savings and operational improvements, we
believe our cash flow from operations, available cash and available borrowings under the ABL Facility will be adequate to meet our liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months. We cannot guarantee that the business will generate sufficient
cash flow from operations, that currently anticipated cost savings and operating improvements will be realized on schedule or that future borrowings will be available to us under the ABL Facility in an amount sufficient to enable us to repay our
indebtedness, including our Notes, or to fund our other liquidity needs. In addition, upon the occurrence of certain events, such as a change of control of our Company, we could be required to repay or refinance our indebtedness. We cannot assure
you that we will be able to refinance any of our indebtedness, including the ABL Facility or our Notes, on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

Our ability to make payments to fund working capital, capital expenditures, debt service, strategic acquisitions, joint ventures and investments will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future,
which is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control. Future indebtedness may impose various restrictions and covenants on us which could limit our ability to respond to market
conditions, to provide for unanticipated capital investments or to take advantage of business opportunities.

Our debt to
capitalization ratio, which is total debt divided by the sum of total debt and stockholders equity, was 50.5% at October 2, 2010, as compared to 53.3% at January 2, 2010. The decrease was primarily attributable to the decrease in
debt and increase in retained earnings.

From time to time, we review and will continue to review acquisition opportunities as
well as changes in the capital markets. If we were to consummate a significant acquisition or elect to take advantage of favorable opportunities in the capital markets, we may supplement availability or revise the terms under the ABL Facility or
complete public or private offerings of debt securities. If the capital markets present favorable opportunities to purchase our own debt, we may do so.

9.750% Senior Secured Notes

In December 2009, in connection with
the Refinancing, we issued the Notes. Interest is payable on the Notes semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each year. We may redeem some or all of the Notes prior to December 1, 2012 at a price equal to 100.00% of the principal
amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and a make-whole premium. We may redeem all or any of the Notes on or after December 1, 2012 and prior to December 1, 2013 at 107.313% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued
and unpaid interest. We may redeem all or any of the Notes on or after December 1, 2013 and prior to December 1, 2014 at 104.875% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest. We may redeem all or any of the Notes
on or after December 1, 2014 and prior to December 1, 2015 at 102.438% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest. At any time on or after December 1, 2015, we may redeem all or any of the Notes at 100.00%
of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, during any twelve month period commencing on the issue date and prior to December 1, 2012, we may redeem up to 10% of aggregate principal amount of the Notes
at a price equal to 103.00% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. At any time prior to December 1, 2012, we may also redeem up to 35.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at a price equal to 109.750% of the
principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, with the net cash proceeds of one or more equity offerings of our Company. We are not required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. However,
the Notes will become due and payable on October 1, 2015 unless on or prior to August 28, 2015, the indebtedness of EB Sports under its senior secured credit agreement with Wachovia Bank, N.A. and the lenders party thereto, or the New
Holdco Facility, has been either repaid or refinanced with indebtedness with a stated maturity that is at least 91 days after the maturity date of the Notes.

Among other
provisions, the indenture governing the Notes contains certain restrictions that limits our ability to (1) incur, assume or guarantee additional debt, (2) pay dividends and make other restricted payments, (3) create liens,
(4) use the proceeds from sales of assets and subsidiary stock, (5) enter into sale and leaseback transactions, (6) enter into agreements that restrict dividends from subsidiaries, (7) change our business, (8) enter into
transactions with affiliates, and (9) transfer all or substantially all of our assets or enter into merger or consolidation transactions. The indenture governing the Notes also requires our Company to make an offer to repurchase the Notes at
101.00% of the principal amount following a change of control of our Company and at 100.00% of the principal amount with the proceeds of certain sales of assets and subsidiary stock.

Subject to certain exceptions, the indenture governing the Notes permits us and our restricted subsidiaries to incur additional
indebtedness, including senior indebtedness and secured indebtedness. In addition, the indenture will not limit the amount of indebtedness that our direct or indirect parent entities, including EB Sports and RBG may incur.

The ABL Facility

Concurrently with the issuance of the Notes in December 2009, we entered into a $250.0 million senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility, subject to availability under each of a United
States and Canadian borrowing base, which amount may be increased to allow borrowings of up to $300.0 million, subject to certain conditions, together with certain of our subsidiaries as Canadian Borrowers (as defined therein) or Subsidiary
Guarantors (as defined therein), with the lenders party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent, Bank of America, N.A., and Wachovia Capital Finance Corporation (New England), as co-syndication agents, and
U.S. Bank National Association, as documentation agent, or the ABL Facility. The unused portion of the ABL Facility available (subject to borrowing base availability) is to be drawn from time to time for general corporate purposes (including
permitted acquisitions) and working capital needs.

Certain of our wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries and all subsidiaries
that guarantee the Notes (currently only our wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries) guarantee all of our obligations (both United States and Canadian) under the ABL Facility. In addition, our wholly-owned Canadian subsidiaries guarantee the obligation
of the Canadian borrowings under the Canadian sub-facility. Additionally, we and our wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions, grant security with respect to substantially all of our personal property as collateral for our
obligations (and related guarantees) under the ABL Facility, including a first-priority security interest in cash and cash equivalents, lockbox and deposit accounts, accounts receivable, inventory, other personal property relating to such inventory
and accounts receivable and all proceeds therefrom and a second-priority security interest in substantially all of our equipment and all assets that secure the Notes on a first-priority basis. The obligations of our Canadian subsidiaries that are
borrowers of the Canadian sub-facility under the ABL Facility are secured, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens, on a first-priority lien basis, by substantially all of the assets of our wholly-owned Canadian subsidiaries and by our and
our domestic subsidiaries assets on the same basis as borrowings by us are secured under the ABL Facility.

The interest
rates per annum applicable to the loans under the ABL Facility, other than swingline loans and protective advances, equal an applicable margin percentage plus, at our option, (1) in the case of United States dollar denominated loans, a
U.S. base rate or LIBOR, and (2) in the case of Canadian dollar denominated loans, a Canadian base rate or CDOR. Swingline loans and protective advances bear interest at the U.S. base rate for United States dollar denominated
loans and the Canadian base rate for Canadian dollar denominated loans. The applicable margin percentage for the ABL Facility is initially 3.75% for LIBOR or CDOR and 2.75% for the base rate, which is subject to adjustment to 3.25% for LIBOR or CDOR
and 2.25% for the base rate based upon our average excess borrowing availability as calculated under the credit agreement for the ABL Facility. In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal under the ABL Facility, we are required to pay a
commitment fee, in relation to the unutilized commitments, which is initially 0.75% per annum and may be adjusted to 0.50% based upon our Companys utilization of the ABL Facility (increasing when utilization is low and decreasing when
utilization is high). We are also required to pay customary letter of credit fees.

The ABL Facility requires that if excess
gross availability is less than the greater of a specified percentage of the gross borrowing base and a specified dollar amount, we must comply with a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio test. In addition, the ABL Facility includes negative
covenants that, subject to significant exceptions, limit our ability and the ability of RBG and its subsidiaries, including the Company, to, among other things (1) incur additional debt, (2) create liens, (3) transfer all or
substantially all of their assets or enter into merger or consolidation transactions, (4) change its business, (5) make investments, loans, advances, guarantees and acquisitions, (6) transfer or sell assets, (7) enter into sale
and leaseback transactions, (8) enter into swap agreements, (9) enter into transactions with affiliates and (10) enter into agreements that restrict dividends from subsidiaries.

Sources and Uses
of Our Cash

Cash provided by operating activities was $47.8 million for the first three fiscal quarters of 2010, as
compared to $51.6 million of cash provided in the first three fiscal quarters of 2009. The cash provided by operations in the first three fiscal quarters of 2010 related primarily to net income, increases in accrued expenses, and decreases in
other current and noncurrent assets, which were partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable and a decrease in accounts payable. Cash provided by operating activities was also impacted by non-cash reconciling items for depreciation,
amortization, equity compensation expense and deferred tax expense, none of which require a current cash outlay. The cash provided by operations in the first three fiscal quarters of 2009 related primarily to net income, decreases in accounts
receivable, inventories, and other current and noncurrent assets, which were partially offset by decreases in accounts payable and accrued expenses. Non-cash reconciling items affected the first three fiscal quarters of 2009 similarly to their
effect on the same period in 2010.

We had $234.5 million in working capital as of October 2, 2010, as compared to $211.2
million at January 2, 2010. The $23.3 million increase in working capital primarily results from the increase in accounts receivable and decrease in revolver borrowings and accounts payable, partially offset by the decrease in cash and prepaid
expenses and the increase in accrued expenses.

Cash used in investing activities was $16.2 million for the first three fiscal
quarters of 2010, as compared to $12.1 million used in the first three fiscal quarters of 2009. The primary reason for the difference is that the first three fiscal quarter of 2010 reflects $14.4 million related to the purchase of property, plant
and equipment for information technology and enhancing new and existing products and $1.8 million for the purchase of businesses, whereas the first three fiscal quarters of 2009 reflects $12.1 million related to the purchase of property, plant and
equipment for the implementation of our ERP system and enhancing new and existing products.

Cash used in financing activities
was $38.0 million for the first three fiscal quarters of 2010, as compared to $30.8 million of cash used in financing activities in the first three fiscal quarters of 2009. The primary reason for the difference is that the first three fiscal
quarters of 2010 reflect a net pay down of $38.0 million on the revolving credit facility, whereas the first three fiscal quarters of 2009 reflect a $43.6 million payment on the previous senior term notes, offset by a capital contribution by RBG of
$12.8 million.

|Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

Foreign Currency Risk

Our net sales and expenses are predominantly
denominated in United States dollars. In fiscal year 2009, approximately 86.8% of our net sales were in United States dollars, with substantially all of the remaining sales in Canadian dollars, British pounds, Euros and Taiwan dollars. In
addition, we purchase a number of materials abroad, including finished goods and raw materials from third parties. A significant amount of these purchases were from vendors in Asia, the majority of which were located in mainland China. We may decide
to increase our international sourcing in the future. As a result, we have exposure to currency exchange risks.

Most of what
we purchase in Asia is finished goods rather than raw materials. Because we generally purchase these goods in United States dollars, changes in the value of the United States dollar can have a more immediate effect on the cost of our
purchases. If we are unable to increase our prices to a level sufficient to cover any increased costs, it could adversely affect our margins.

We enter into foreign currency exchange forward contracts to reduce the risks related to inventory purchases and foreign currency based accounts receivable denominated in foreign currencies. At
October 2, 2010, there were foreign currency exchange forward contracts in effect for the purchase of United States $6.2 million aggregated notional amounts, or approximately Cdn $6.3 million. In the future, if we feel our foreign currency
exposure has increased, we may consider entering into additional hedging transactions to help mitigate that risk.

Considering
both the anticipated cash flows from firm purchase commitments and anticipated purchases for the next quarter and the foreign currency derivative instruments in place at October 2, 2010, a hypothetical 10% weakening of the United
States dollar relative to other currencies would not have a material adverse effect on our expected fourth quarter 2010 earnings or cash flows. This analysis is dependent on actual purchases during the next quarter occurring within 90% of
budgeted forecasts. In addition, the effect of the hypothetical change in exchange rates ignores the effect this movement may have on other variables, including competitive risk. If it were possible to quantify this competitive impact, the results
could well be different than the sensitivity effects analysis described. In addition, it is unlikely currencies would uniformly strengthen or weaken relative to the United States dollar. In reality, some currencies may weaken while others may
strengthen. Moreover, any movement of the United States dollar relative to other currencies and its impact on materials costs would likely be partially offset by the impact on net sales due to our sales internationally and the conversion of
those international sales into United States dollars.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates that can affect our operating results and overall financial condition. In
connection with the Refinancing, we entered into a new $250.0 million ABL Facility. As of October 2, 2010, the outstanding principal balance under this facility was $35.9 million. The interest rates on the ABL Facility are based on (1) the
prime rate or LIBOR in the case of United States dollar denominated loans and (2) the prime rate or CDOR in the case of Canadian dollar denominated loans, in each case plus an applicable margin percentage. A hypothetical 10% increase from the
current interest rate applicable to the ABL Facility balance of $35.9 million would have resulted in approximately a $0.1 million increase in interest expense for the quarter ended October 2, 2010.



|Item 4. | Controls and Procedures
|------- | -----------------------

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of October 2, 2010, the end of the fiscal period covered by this quarterly report, we performed an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our
Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 and Rule 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or
the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer each concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports
that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the period covered by this report that materially affected, or
is reasonably likely to affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION



|Item 1. | Legal Proceedings
|------- | -----------------

We are
currently involved in various suits and claims, including various product liability suits and claims, all of which constitute ordinary, routine litigation incidental to the business. For example, a judgment was recently rendered against us in a
patent infringement proceeding relating to certain of our skate boots. However, we do not believe that such judgment or any other claims or actions, either individually or in the aggregate, are material to our business or financial condition.



|Item 1A. | Risk Factors
|-------- | ------------

There have
been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 2, 2010. The materialization of any risks and uncertainties identified in Forward-Looking Statements contained in this report
together with those previously disclosed in the Form 10-K or those that are presently unforeseen could result in significant adverse effects on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. See Part I, Item 2.
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations  Forward-Looking Statements and Information in this report.
