in its discretion, after consultation with the Chief Executive Officer (as adjusted from time to time, the “Base Salary”), which salary shall be payable by the Company in regular installments in accordance with the Company’s
general payroll practices (in effect from time to time). In addition, during the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to participate in all of the Company’s retirement, health and welfare employee benefit programs for which senior

 (b) During the Employment Period, the Company shall reimburse Executive for all reasonable
business expenses incurred by him in the course of performing his duties and responsibilities under this Agreement, which business expenses are consistent with the Company’s policies in effect from time to time with respect to travel (provided

Executive Officer, based on all factors it deems relevant, including the Company’s achievement of financial performance for the relevant year and other objectives as agreed between the Board and Executive. An Annual Bonus, if any, will be
earned as of December 31 and will be payable by the Company in the calendar year following the calendar year to which such Annual Bonus relates, in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices in effect from time to time; provided,
that, with respect to any calendar year, the Company will endeavor in good faith to pay any such Annual Bonus no later than March 31 of such following calendar year; it being understood that such payment date may be delayed as necessary for the
Board to obtain and evaluate any financial statements or other information that the Board deems relevant to determine the Annual Bonus. 

(d) During the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to four (4) weeks of paid vacation per calendar year (as prorated for
partial years) in accordance with the Company’s policies on accrual and use applicable to employees as in effect from time to time. Vacation may be taken at such times and intervals as the Employee determines, subject to the business needs of

year in which termination of Executive’s employment occurs. The amount described in clause (iii) of this paragraph 4(b) will become payable to Executive if and only if Executive (or, in the event of Executive’s death, Executive’s
estate) has executed and delivered to the Company, not later than sixty (60) days following the date of termination, an irrevocable general waiver and release of claims in the form provided by the Company to Executive (or, in the event of
Executive’s death, Executive’s estate) after his termination (the “General Release”) and only if Executive (or, in the event of Executive’s death, Executive’s estate) continues to comply with the provisions of
paragraphs 5, 6, 7 and 24 hereof. The amounts payable pursuant to clause (iii) of this paragraph 4(b) shall be payable in regular installments over the twelve (12) month period following the date of termination (the “Severance
Period”) in accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices as in effect on the date of termination, but in no event less frequently than monthly; provided, that no amounts shall be paid to Executive until the first scheduled
payroll date following the date on which the General Release is no longer subject to revocation, with the first such payment being in an amount equal to the total amount to which Executive would otherwise have been entitled during the period
following the date of termination through such payment date if such deferral had not been required; provided, however, that any such amounts that constitute nonqualified deferred compensation within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code
Section 409A and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder (“Code Section 409A”) shall not be paid until the 60th day following such termination to the extent necessary to avoid adverse tax consequences under
Code Section 409A, and, if such payments are required to be so deferred, the first payment shall be in an amount equal to the total amount to which Executive would otherwise have been entitled during the period following the date of termination
through such payment date if such deferral had not been required. 
 (c) If Executive’s employment hereunder and the Employment Period
is terminated (1) by the Company for Cause, or (2) by Executive without Good Reason, Executive shall be entitled to receive (i) his accrued but unpaid Base Salary through the date of termination and (ii) any awarded but unpaid
Annual Bonus in respect of a calendar year ended on or prior to the date in which termination occurs. 
 (d) Except as otherwise expressly
provided herein, Executive shall not be entitled to any other salary, bonuses, employee benefits or compensation from the Company or its Subsidiaries after the termination of the Employment Period and all of Executive’s rights to salary,

Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended). 
 (e) Executive is under no obligation to mitigate damages or the amount of any payment provided

5. Confidential Information. 

(a) Executive acknowledges that the continued success of Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries and Affiliates, depends upon the use and
protection of a large body of confidential and proprietary information. All of such confidential and proprietary information now existing or to be developed in the future will be referred to in this Agreement as


  
 5 








 
“Confidential Information”. Confidential Information will be interpreted as broadly as possible to include all information of any sort (whether merely remembered or embodied in a
tangible or intangible form) that is (i) related to Parent’s, the Company’s or their Subsidiaries’ or Affiliates’ current or potential business and (ii) is not generally or publicly known. Confidential Information
includes, without specific limitation, the information, observations and data obtained by Executive from the performance of his duties to the Company and its Affiliates (including services performed prior to the date of this Agreement) concerning
the business and affairs of Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries and Affiliates, information concerning acquisition opportunities in or reasonably related to the Parent’s, the Company’s or their Subsidiaries’ or Affiliates’
business or industry of which Executive becomes aware during the Employment Period and/or any prior employment with any predecessor of Parent, the Company and/or any of their Subsidiaries, the Persons or entities that are current, former or
prospective suppliers or customers of any one or more of them, as well as development, transition and transformation plans, methodologies and methods of doing business, strategic, marketing and expansion plans, including plans regarding planned and
potential sales, financial and business plans, employee lists and telephone numbers, locations of sales representatives, new and existing programs and services, prices and terms, customer service, integration processes, requirements and costs of
providing service, support and equipment. Accordingly, Executive agrees that during the Employment Period and thereafter, he shall not disclose to any unauthorized Person or use for his own account any Confidential Information without the
Board’s prior written consent, unless and to the extent that any Confidential Information (i) becomes generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a result of Executive’s acts or omissions to act or
(ii) is required to be disclosed pursuant to any applicable law or court order (in which case Executive shall give prior written notice to the Company of such required disclosure, and shall cooperate with Parent, the Company and their
Subsidiaries in any reasonable efforts to limit such disclosure or preserve the confidentiality of any Confidential Information). Executive agrees to deliver to the Company at the end of the Employment Period, or at any other time the Company may
request in writing, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports and other property or documents (and copies thereof) relating to the business of Parent, the Company or their Subsidiaries or Affiliates (including, without limitation, all
Confidential Information) that he may then possess or have under his control. 
 (b) During the Employment Period, Executive shall not use
or disclose any confidential information or trade secrets, if any, of any former employers or any other person to whom Executive has an obligation of confidentiality, and shall not bring onto the premises of Parent, the Company or their Subsidiaries
or Affiliates any unpublished documents or any property belonging to any former employer or any other Person to whom Executive has an obligation of confidentiality unless consented to in writing by the former employer or Person. Executive shall use
in the performance of his duties only information that is (i) generally known and used by persons with training and experience comparable to Executive’s and that is (x) common knowledge in the industry or (y) is otherwise legally
in the public domain, (ii) otherwise provided or developed by Parent, the Company or their Subsidiaries or Affiliates or (iii) in the case of materials, property or information belonging to any former employer or other Person to whom
Executive has an obligation of confidentiality, approved for such use in writing by such former employer or Person. If at any time during the Employment Period, Executive believes he is being asked to engage in work that will, or will be likely to,
jeopardize any confidentiality or other obligations Executive may have to former employers, Executive shall immediately advise the Board so that Executive’s duties can be modified appropriately. 

  
 6 








 (c) Executive represents and warrants to the Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries that
Executive took nothing with him which belonged to any former employer when Executive left his position(s) with such employer(s) and that Executive has nothing that contains any information which belongs to any former employer. If at any time
Executive discovers that this representation is incorrect, Executive shall promptly return any such materials to Executive’s former employer(s). Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries do not want any such materials, and Executive shall not
be permitted to use or refer to any such materials in the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder. 
 (d) Executive understands
that Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries and Affiliates will receive from third parties confidential or proprietary information (“Third Party Information”) subject to a duty on Parent’s, the Company’s and their
Subsidiaries’ and Affiliates’ part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. During the Employment Period and thereafter, and without in any way limiting the provisions of
paragraph 5(a) above, Executive will hold Third Party Information in the strictest confidence and will not disclose to anyone (other than personnel of Parent, the Company or their Subsidiaries and Affiliates who need to know such information in
connection with their work for Parent, the Company or such Subsidiaries and Affiliates) or use, except in connection with his work for Parent, the Company or their Subsidiaries and Affiliates, Third Party Information unless expressly authorized by a
member of the Board in writing. 
 6. Intellectual Property, Inventions and Patents. Executive acknowledges that all discoveries,
concepts, ideas, inventions, innovations, improvements, developments, methods, designs, analyses, drawings, reports, patent applications, copyrightable work and mask work (whether or not including any confidential information) and all registrations
or applications related thereto, all other proprietary information and all similar or related information (whether or not patentable) which relate to Parent’s, the Company’s or any of their Subsidiaries’ actual or anticipated
business, research and development or existing or future products or services and which are conceived, developed or made by Executive (whether alone or jointly with others) while employed by the Company and its Subsidiaries, whether before or after
the date of this Agreement (“Work Product”), belong to Parent, the Company or such Subsidiary. Executive shall promptly disclose such Work Product to the Board and, at the Company’s expense, perform all actions reasonably
requested by the Board (whether during or after the Employment Period) to establish and confirm such ownership (including, without limitation, assignments, consents, powers of attorney and other instruments). 

7. Non-Compete; Non-Solicitation. 

(a) In further consideration of the compensation to be paid to Executive hereunder, Executive acknowledges that during the course of his
employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries he has and shall become familiar with Parent’s, the Company’s and their Subsidiaries’ and Affiliates’ corporate strategy, pricing and other market information, know-how, trade
secrets and valuable customer, supplier and employee relationships, and with other Confidential Information concerning Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries and Affiliates, 

  
 7 








 
and that his services have been and shall be of special, unique and extraordinary value to Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries and Affiliates. Accordingly, Executive agrees that, during
the Employment Period and for twelve (12) months thereafter (the “Restriction Period”), Executive will not directly or indirectly (whether as employee, director, owner, stockholder, consultant, partner (limited or general) or
otherwise) own any interest in, manage, control, participate in, consult with, advertise on behalf of, render services for or in any manner engage in any Competing Business that conducts operations or sales in the United States, or in such other
countries outside the United States where Parent, the Company or their Subsidiaries conduct sales or operations or have taken active steps towards conducting sales or operations as of the date of the Executive’s termination of employment.
Nothing herein shall prohibit Executive from being a passive owner of not more than 2% of the outstanding stock of any class of a corporation which is publicly traded, so long as Executive has no active participation in the business of such
corporation. For purpose of this Agreement, “Competing Business” shall mean any business or enterprise primarily related to the home furnishings trade show business and/or gift trade show business in the United States, including
exhibition space used primarily for home furnishings and/or gifts, but shall not include any other business relating to home furnishings or accessories, including manufacturing of home furnishings or accessories or retail sales of home furnishings
or accessories, in each case so long as such business does not primarily relate to the home furnishings trade show or exhibition and/or gift trade show or exhibition business. 

(b) During the Restriction Period, Executive shall not directly or indirectly through another Person (i) induce or attempt to induce any
employee of Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary to leave the employ of Parent, the Company or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with the relationship between Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary and any employee thereof,
(ii) knowingly hire any person who was an employee of Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary at any time during the twelve months prior to the termination of Executive’s employment or (iii) induce or encourage any customer, supplier,
licensee, licensor or other business relation of Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary to cease doing business with Parent, the Company or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee,
licensor or business relation and Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary (including, without limitation, making any negative or disparaging statements or communications regarding Parent, the Company or their Subsidiaries). 

(c) If, at the time of enforcement of this paragraph 7, a court shall hold that the duration, scope or area restrictions stated herein are
unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties agree that the maximum duration, scope or area reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated duration, scope or area and that the court shall be allowed to revise
the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum period, scope and area permitted by law. 
 (d) Executive acknowledges that Executive
has carefully read this Agreement and has given careful consideration to the restraints imposed upon Executive by this Agreement, and is in full accord as to the necessity of such restraints for the reasonable and proper protection of the
Confidential Information, business strategies, employee and customer relationships and goodwill of the Company and its subsidiaries and Affiliates now existing or to be developed in the future. Executive expressly acknowledges and agrees that each
and every restraint imposed by this Agreement is reasonable with respect to subject matter, time period and geographical 

  
 8 








 
area. Executive further acknowledges that although Executive’s compliance with the covenants contained in Sections 5, 6, or 7 may prevent Executive from earning a livelihood in a business
similar to the business of the Company, Executive’s experience and capabilities are such that Executive has other opportunities to earn a livelihood and adequate means of support for Executive and Executive’s dependents. 

8. Enforcement. Because Executive’s services are unique and because Executive has access to Confidential Information and Work
Product, the parties to agree that Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries would suffer irreparable harm from a breach or threatened breach of paragraphs 5, 6, 7, or 24 by Executive and that money damages would not be an adequate remedy for any
such breach or threatened breach of this Agreement. In the event of any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries in addition to other rights and remedies existing in their favor, shall be entitled to
specific performance and/or injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in order to enforce, or prevent any violations of, the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security). In addition, in the event of
an alleged breach of violation by Executive of paragraph 7, the Restriction Period shall be extended automatically by the amount of time between the initial occurrence of the breach or violation and when such breach or violation has been duly cured.

 9. Executive’s Representations. Executive hereby represents and warrants to the Company that (a) the execution, delivery
and performance of this Agreement by Executive do not and shall not conflict with, breach, violate or cause a default under any contract, agreement, instrument, order, judgment or decree to which Executive is a party or by which he is bound,
(b) Executive is not a party to or bound by any employment agreement, noncompete agreement or confidentiality agreement with any other person or entity, (c) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, this Agreement
shall be the valid and binding obligation of Executive, enforceable in accordance with its terms, and (d) Executive is not subject to any pending, or to his knowledge any threatened, lawsuit, action, investigation or proceeding involving
Executive’s prior employment or consulting work or the use of any information or techniques of any former employer or contracting party. Executive hereby acknowledges and represents that he has consulted with independent legal counsel regarding
his rights and obligations under this Agreement and that he fully understands the terms and conditions contained herein. 
 10.

such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service.” Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the
Executive is deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is considered
“nonqualified deferred compensation” under Code Section 409A payable on account of a “separation from service,” such payment or benefit shall not be made or provided until the date which is the earlier of (A) the
expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the date of such “separation from service” of the Executive, and (B) the date of the Executive’s death, to the extent required under Code Section 409A. Upon the expiration
of the foregoing delay period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section 19(c) (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed to the
Executive in a lump sum, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein. 

(d) To the extent that reimbursements or other in-kind benefits under this Agreement constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation”
for purposes of Code Section 409A, (A) all such expenses or other reimbursements hereunder shall be made on or prior to the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which such expenses were incurred by the Executive,
(B) any right to such reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and (C) no such reimbursement, expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided in any taxable
year shall in any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year. 
 (e)
For purposes of Code Section 409A, the Executive’s right to receive any installment payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of 

  
 12 








 
separate and distinct payments. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days, the actual date of payment within the specified period shall
be within the sole discretion of the Company. 
 (f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event
shall any payment under this Agreement that constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A be subject to offset by any other amount unless otherwise permitted by Code Section 409A. 

21. Waiver of Jury Trial. AS A SPECIFICALLY BARGAINED FOR INDUCEMENT FOR EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT (AFTER
HAVING THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT WITH COUNSEL), EACH PARTY HERETO EXPRESSLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LAWSUIT OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO OR ARISING IN ANY WAY FROM THIS AGREEMENT OR THE MATTERS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. 

22. Corporate Opportunity. Executive shall submit to the Board all business, commercial and investment opportunities or offers
presented to Executive, or of which Executive becomes aware, at any time during the Employment Period, which opportunities relate to the home furnishings trade show business and/or gift trade show business, including exhibition space used primarily
for home furnishings and/or gifts, within or outside of the United States (“Corporate Opportunities”). Unless approved by the Board, Executive shall not accept or pursue, directly or indirectly, any Corporate Opportunities on
Executive’s own behalf. 
 23. Executive’s Cooperation. During the Employment Period and thereafter, Executive shall
reasonably cooperate with Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries in any internal investigation or administrative, regulatory or judicial proceeding as reasonably requested by Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary (including, without limitation,
Executive being available to Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries upon reasonable notice for interviews and factual investigations, appearing at Parent’s, the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s request to give truthful and accurate
testimony without requiring service of a subpoena or other legal process, volunteering to Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries all pertinent information and turning over to Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries all relevant documents
which are or may come into Executive’s possession, all at times and on schedules that are reasonably consistent with Executive’s other permitted activities and commitments). In the event Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary requires
Executive’s cooperation in accordance with this paragraph, the Company shall pay Executive a per diem reasonably determined by the Board and reimburse Executive for reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith (including reasonable
transportation, lodging and meals, upon submission of receipts). 
 24. Nondisparagement. Executive agrees that during the Employment
Period and thereafter, he will not, directly or indirectly, publicly or privately, make, publish or solicit, or encourage others to make, publish or solicit, any disparaging statements, comments, announcements, or remarks concerning Parent, the
Company or their Affiliates, or any of their respective past and present directors, officers or employees.
