Executive Officers of Registrant

Information regarding the Executive Officers of the Registrant is set forth in Part I of this Report.

Family Relationships

There are no family
relationships among any of the directors or executive officers of the Company.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Role of the Board of Directors. In accordance with Delaware law and our Bylaws, the Board of Directors oversees the management
of the business and affairs of the Company. The members of the Board keep informed about our business through discussions with management, by reviewing analyses and reports sent to them by management and outside consultants, and by participating in
Board and Board committee meetings.

Our Board members are encouraged to prepare for and to attend all meetings of the Board and the Board
committees of which they are members and all stockholder meetings. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, the Board of Directors of the Company held a total of four meetings and all of the directors attended at least 80% of the total
of those meetings and the meetings of the Board committees on which they served during 2013. All of our directors also attended the 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Although we have no formal policy requiring director attendance at annual
meetings of stockholders, we attempt to schedule each annual meeting for a date that is convenient for all directors to attend.

Role
of the Board in Risk Management

The Boards responsibilities in overseeing the Companys management and business include
oversight of the Companys key risks and managements processes and controls. Management, in turn, is responsible for the day-to-day management of risk and implementation of appropriate risk management controls and procedures. In meeting
these responsibilities, at its meetings the Board members discuss with management the principal risks facing the Company and its financial condition and the performance and actions that have taken, and the processes that have been implemented, by
management to address and mitigate those risks to the extent practicable. Management also conducts quarterly evaluations of the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and annual evaluations of the effectiveness of the Companys
internal control over its financial reporting under the oversight of the Audit Committee.

Board Leadership Structure

The Board does not have a formal policy with respect to whether the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board should be
separate and, if they are to be separate, whether the chairman of the Board should be selected from among the non-employee directors or management. The Board believes that it should be free to make a choice from time to time in any manner that it
concludes is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

Thomas R. McGuire, the Chairman of the Board, is an executive
officer and past President and CEO of the Company. In electing Mr. McGuire as Chairman, the Board considered the fact that Mr. McGuire is a large stockholder of the Company and that, as a result, his interests are more closely aligned with
those of the stockholders than with those of management, and that he has extensive knowledge about and is well-known within the Companys marketplace, and as a result is best able to identify strategic opportunities for our Company in the
market.

Our Board also has determined that maintaining the independence of a majority of our directors helps maintain the Boards
independent oversight of management and ensures that the appropriate level of independence is applied to all Board decisions. In addition, the Board has designated one of the independent directors as Lead Director. The Lead Directors duties
include working with the Chairman to develop and approve Board agendas, developing and approving meeting schedules with the Chairman to ensure there is sufficient time for discussion of agenda topics, advising the Chairman as to the quality,
quantity and timeliness of the information sent to the Board by management, developing agendas for and chairing executive sessions of the Board (in which the non-management directors meet without management), acting as a liaison between the
independent directors and the Chairman and the CEO, and performing such other duties as the Board may determine from time to time. The position of Lead Director is currently held by Thomas G. Faludy.

Our Audit, Compensation and Nominating and Governance Committees, which oversee critical matters, such as our accounting principles and
financial reporting processes, our executive compensation program and the selection and evaluation of our directors and director nominees, respectively, are comprised solely of independent directors.

Committees of the Board of Directors

The Board has three standing committees: an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee and a Nominating and Governance Committee. Information
regarding the members of each of those Committees and their responsibilities and the number of meetings held by those Committees in 2013 is set forth below.

Audit Committee and Financial Experts. The members of the Audit Committee are Leonard P. Danna, its Chairman, and Robert S. Throop and
John W. Casey. The Board of Directors has determined that all of the members of the Audit Committee are independent within the meaning of the NYSE MKT listed company rules and the enhanced independence requirements for audit committee members
contained in Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). Our Board also has determined that each of Messrs. Danna and Throop meets the definition of audit committee financial
expert adopted by the SEC. The Audit Committee has a written charter that specifies its responsibilities, which include oversight of the financial reporting process and system of internal accounting controls of the Company, and appointment and
oversight of the independent registered public accounting firm engaged to audit the Companys financial statements. Interested stockholders can view a copy of that charter in the investor relations section of our website at
www.coastdistribution.com. To ensure independence, the Audit Committee meets separately with our outside auditors and members of management, respectively. The Audit Committee held a total of four meetings in 2014.

Compensation Committee. The members of the Compensation Committee are John W. Casey, who serves as the Committees Chairman,
Robert S. Throop and Leonard P. Danna, each of whom is independent (as defined in the NYSE MKT listed company rules). The Compensation Committee (i) sets the salaries of the Companys executive officers; (ii) adopts non-equity
incentive compensation and other non-equity benefit plans for our executive officers and sets the performance targets and determines the incentive compensation awards that may be earned under those plans; and (iii) oversees the administration
of, and makes determinations with respect to the granting and terms of stock options and restricted shares granted under, the Companys equity incentive plans. The Compensation Committee operates under a charter that sets forth the role and
responsibilities of the Committee. Interested stockholders can view a copy of that charter in the investor relations section of our website at www.coastdistribution.com. The Compensation Committee held one meeting in 2014.

Mr. Musbach sometimes participates in meetings of the Compensation Committee to provide the Committee with information with respect to
the performance of the Companys other executive officers who report to him, but does not participate in the deliberations or votes by the Committee.

Nominating and Governance Committee. The members of the Nominating and Governance Committee are Robert S. Throop, its Chairman, Ben A.
Frydman and John W. Casey, each of whom is independent within the meaning of the NYSE MKT Listing Rules. This Committee has a written charter that sets forth its responsibilities, which include identifying and recommending nominees for election to
the Board; making recommendations to the Board regarding the directors to be appointed to each of its standing Committees; developing and recommending corporate governance guidelines for adoption by the Board of Directors; and overseeing the annual
self-assessments by the Companys Directors of the performance of the Board of Directors and its Committees. A copy of the Committees charter may be viewed in the investor relations section of our website at
www.coastdistribution.com. The Committee held one meeting in 2014.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Corporate Governance Guidelines

Our
Directors believe that sound governance policies and practices provide an important framework to assist them in fulfilling their duties to the Companys stockholders. Our Board of Directors has adopted the following governance guidelines, which
include a number of policies and practices under which our Board has operated for some time, together with concepts suggested by various authorities in corporate governance and the requirements under the NYSE MKT listed company rules and the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Some of the principal subjects covered by those guidelines include:

| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Executive Sessions without Management. The independent directors of the Board will hold separate sessions, outside the presence of management, to consider and evaluate the performance of the Company and its
management and such other matters as they deem appropriate. In addition, the Audit Committee shall meet separately with the Companys outside auditors.

Director Independence and Diversity

Coasts corporate governance guidelines require that the Board be comprised of at least a majority of independent directors. For a
director to be considered independent, the Board must affirmatively determine that he does not have any direct or indirect material relationship with Coast that, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with the exercise of that directors
independent judgment in carrying out his responsibilities as a director.

A director will not be deemed to be an independent director if:



| |  |  | the director is, or at any time during the preceding three years was, employed by Coast; or
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the director or an immediate family member of the director (i) is, or at any time during the previous three years was, employed as an executive officer of Coast, or (ii) received compensation in excess of
$120,000 in any 12 month period during the immediately preceding three years for services rendered to the Company, other than as a member of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof; or
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the director, or an immediate family member of the director is a current partner of Coasts outside auditor, or was a partner or employee of Coasts outside auditor who worked on Coasts audit at any time
during the previous three years; or
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a present Coast executive officer was on the compensation committee of the board of directors of another company during the previous three years that concurrently employed, as one of its executive officers, a Coast
director or an immediate family member of a Coast director; or
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the director or an immediate family member of the director is a partner, executive officer, or controlling shareholder of another company or
professional or other firm (including any law firm or investment

consolidated gross revenues of that other company or professional entity for that year, or (ii) $200,000.
| | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On the
basis of the above criteria, the Board has determined that five of the Companys seven directors are independent, including Mr. Frydman. Since Messrs. McGuire and Musbach are executive officers of the Company, they are not deemed to be
independent directors. In determining that Mr. Frydman is independent, the other independent directors did consider the fact that Mr. Frydman is a shareholder (but not a controlling shareholder) in the law firm of Stradling Yocca
Carlson & Rauth, which provided legal services to Coast during each of the past three years and is providing legal services to Coast in 2014. However, on the basis of the criteria set forth above and their evaluation of
Mr. Frydmans past performance as a director, the other independent directors determined that this relationship did not interfere with the exercise of his independent judgment in carrying out his responsibilities as a director of the
Company.

The Board of Director believes that differences in experience, knowledge, skills and viewpoints enhance the Board of
Directors performance. Accordingly, the Nominating Committee considers such diversity in selecting, evaluating and recommending, and the Board considers diversity in approving, proposed Board nominees. However, the Board of Directors has not
implemented a formal policy with respect to the consideration of diversity for the composition of the Board of Directors.

Code of Business Conduct

We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct for our officers and employees that has been approved by the Board of Directors. The Code
sets forth specific ethical policies and principles that apply to our Chief Executive Officer, Executive Chairman, Chief Financial Officer and other key accounting and financial personnel. A copy of our Code of Business Conduct is posted in the
investor relations section of our website at www.coastdistribution.com. We also intend to disclose, on that website, any amendments to our Code of Business Conduct and any waivers of its requirements that may be granted to our Chief Executive
Officer, Executive Chairman or Chief Financial Officer. To date, no such waivers have been granted.

Communications with the Board

Stockholders and other parties interested in communicating with the non-management directors as a group may do so by writing to the Corporate
Secretary, The Coast Distribution System, Inc., 350 Woodview Avenue, Suite 100, Morgan Hill, California 95037. The Corporate Secretary will review and forward to the appropriate member or members of the Board copies of all such correspondence
that, in the opinion of the Corporate Secretary, deals with the functions of the Board or its committees or that she otherwise determines requires their attention. Questions relating to accounting, internal controls or auditing matters will be
brought promptly to the attention of the Chairman of the Audit Committee and will be handled in accordance with procedures established by that Committee.

The Audit Committee also has established a financial integrity hotline (i) for Company employees and others to be able to
communicate, anonymously, to the Audit Committee any questions or concerns they may have regarding accounting or auditing matters and (ii) for the receipt, retention and treatment of those communications and any complaints received with respect
to such matters.

Nomination of Directors

In identifying candidates for membership on the Board, the Nominating and Governance Committee will seek recommendations from existing Board
members and executive officers. In addition, that Committee will consider any candidates that may be recommended by any of the Companys stockholders who make those recommendations in accordance with the procedures described below. The
Committee also has the authority to engage an executive search firm and other advisors, as it deems appropriate, to assist it in identifying qualified Board candidates. In assessing and selecting new candidates for Board membership, the members of
the Nominating and Governance Committee will consider such factors, among others, as the candidates integrity and independence and freedom from conflicts of interest and experience and expertise, as demonstrated by past employment and board
experience, and will conduct background inquiries of and interviews with those candidates. The Committee members will consider a number of factors in making their selection of a nominee from among those candidates, including, among others: whether
the

##### Table of Contents

candidate has the ability, willingness and enthusiasm to devote the time and effort required of members of the Board; the candidates independence, including whether the candidate has any
conflicts of interest or commitments that would interfere with the candidates ability to fulfill the responsibilities of a director; whether the candidates skills and experience would add to the overall competencies of the Board; and
whether the candidate has any special background or experience relevant to the Companys business.

Stockholder Recommendation of
Board Candidates. Any stockholder desiring to submit a recommendation for consideration by the Nominating and Governance Committee of a candidate whom the stockholder believes is qualified to be a nominee for election to the Board at any annual
stockholders meeting may do so by submitting that recommendation in writing to the Committee not later than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the date on which the proxy materials for the prior years annual meeting were
first sent to stockholders. However, if the date of an annual stockholders meeting has been changed by more than 30 days from the anniversary date of the prior years annual meeting, the recommendation must be received within a
reasonable time before the Company begins to print and mail its proxy materials for the upcoming annual meeting. In addition, the recommendation should be accompanied by the following information: (i) the name and address of the nominating
stockholder and the person that the nominating stockholder is recommending for consideration as a candidate for Board membership; (ii) the number of shares of voting stock of the Company that are owned by the nominating stockholder, his or her
recommended candidate and any other stockholders known by the nominating stockholder to be supporting the nomination of that candidate; (iii) a description of any arrangements or understandings that relate to the election of directors of the
Company, between the nominating stockholder, or any person that (directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries) controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, such stockholder, on the one hand, and the person that the
nominating stockholder is recommending for election to the Board or any other person or persons (naming each such person), on the other hand; (iv) such other information regarding the recommended candidate as would be required to be included in
a proxy statement prepared in accordance with and filed pursuant to the SECs proxy rules; and (v) the written consent of the recommended candidate to be named as a nominee and, if nominated and elected, to serve as a director.

Stockholder Nominations. Our Bylaws provide that any stockholder also may nominate, at any annual meeting of stockholders, one or more
candidates for election to the Board of Directors, by giving the Company written notice (addressed to the Secretary of the Company at the Companys principal offices) of such stockholders intention to do so not later than 120 days prior
to the first anniversary of the date on which the proxy materials for the prior years annual meeting were first sent to stockholders. Such notice must be accompanied by the same information, described in the immediately preceding paragraph,
regarding such candidate or candidates to be nominated for election to the Board and the nominating stockholder and the written consent of each such candidate to be named as a nominee and, if nominated and elected, to serve as a director. Any
stockholder nomination at any annual meeting that does not comply with these Bylaw requirements will be ineffective and disregarded.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires each of our directors and executive officers, and the one person who, to our knowledge, owns
more than 10% of our common stock (a 10% Stockholder), to file reports with the SEC containing information regarding their ownership and changes in their ownership of our shares of common stock and of options to purchase shares of our
common stock and to furnish us with copies of those reports.

Based solely on a review of the copies of those reports that were filed by
our executive officers and directors pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, to our knowledge, all of our executive officers and directors complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to their transactions in the
Companys securities in 2013, except as follows: (i) statements of changes in beneficial ownership on Form 4 (Form 4s) to report sales of 1,100 shares and 1,200 shares by Mr. McGuire, our Executive Chairman, were
inadvertently filed three days and two days late, respectively; and (ii) a Form 4 to report the purchase, by exercise of an employee stock option, by David Berger, one of our Executive Vice Presidents, of 5,000 shares of our common stock, was
inadvertently filed nine days late.

Narrative to Summary Compensation Table

Annual Base Salaries

Mr. Musbach served as the Companys President and Chief Operating Officer until April 2008, when he was promoted to Chief Executive
Officer. Although the Compensation Committee approved an increase in Mr. Musbachs annual base salary from $250,000 to $300,000 in conjunction with that promotion, he declined to accept that increase as his contribution to a cost reduction
program adopted by the Board in response to the economic recession and credit crisis. As a result, Mr. Musbachs annual base salary in 2008 was $250,000. Then, effective February 1, 2009, Mr. Musbach reduced his annual base
salary by another 10%, to $225,000, as part of a number of cost-cutting measures being implemented by the Company in that year. Effective July 1, 2010, all salaries and wages of the Companys employees then in effect, including
Mr. Musbachs salary, which had been reduced by 10% in 2009, were increased by 5%. Then, in March 2013, all salaries and wages of the Companys employees, including Mr. Musbachs salary, were

##### Table of Contents

increased by 5%, thereby effectively restoring all of the salaries of the Companys employees, including Mr. Musbachs, to their 2009 levels. As a result, Mr. Musbachs
annual base salary in 2013 reflects that second 5% salary increase for the 10 months ended December 31, 2013.

In 2008,
Mr. McGuires annual base salary was $360,000. However, as his contribution to the Companys cost reduction programs, Mr. McGuire voluntarily reduced his annual base salary on two occasions in 2008: (i) a $50,000 reduction,
effective June 1, 2008, bringing his annual base salary from $360,000 to $310,000 and (ii) an additional $60,000 reduction, effective December 1, 2008, bringing his annual base salary from $310,000 to $250,000, which was 30% lower
than the amount of his annual base salary at the beginning of 2008. Then, effective February 1, 2009, Mr. McGuire reduced his then annual base salary by an additional 10%, to $225,000, as part of a number of cost-cutting measures being
implemented by the Company in that year. Effective July 1, 2010, all salaries and wages of the Companys employees, including Mr. McGuires salary, which had been reduced by 10% in 2009, were increased by 5%. As a result,
Mr. McGuires annual base salary for 2011 included that 5% salary increase. However, Mr. McGuire agreed to reduce his annual salary by 10% effective September 15, 2012. As a result, his annual salary in 2012 gives effect to that
reduction for the last three and one-half months of that year and his annual salary in 2013 gives effect to that reduction for the entirety of that year.

Ms. Knell, like the other NEOs, agreed to reduce her annual base salary by 10%, effective February 1, 2009 as part of a number of
cost-cutting measures being implemented by the Company in that year. Effective July 1, 2010, all salaries and wages of the Companys employees, including Ms. Knells salary, which had been reduced by 10% in 2009, were increased
by 5%. Then, in March 2013, the salaries of all Company employees, including Ms. Knells salary, were increased by 5%, effectively restoring her salary to its 2008 level. As a result, Ms. Knells annual base salary for 2013
reflects that second 5% salary increase for the 10 months ended December 1, 2013.

Equity and Non-Equity Incentive Compensation

Equity Incentive Compensation. With the approval of our stockholders, we adopted an equity incentive plan in 2012 (the
2012 Equity Incentive Plan). That Plan set aside shares of our common stock for future grants of equity awards which, to date, have consisted of stock options and restricted stock awards. Those awards are intended to create incentives,
in the form of financial rewards, to NEOs and other management employees for performance that leads to increases in our stock price, so as to better align the financial interests of our NEOs and other key management employees with those of our
stockholders.

Additionally, in order to earn equity incentive awards, the recipients of the awards are required to remain in the
Companys employ over vesting periods that, in most cases, range from three-to-five years. Generally, if an executives employment with the Company is terminated (whether by the executive or the Company) prior to the expiration of the
multi-year vesting period, the unvested portion of the equity award is forfeited. As a result, such awards also provide an incentive for executives to focus their efforts on the Companys achievement of longer term financial results and to
remain in the Companys employ over a multi-year period.

The Compensation Committee oversees the administration of the 2012 Equity
Incentive Plan and, in that capacity, determines (i) the executive officers and other management employees who will be granted equity incentive awards under that Plan, (ii) the number of shares that Plan participants may receive pursuant
to such awards, and (iii) the nature and terms of, and the vesting conditions that will apply to, such awards. Generally, the Compensation Committee grants equity incentive awards to our NEOs and other key management employees on the
commencement of their employment with the Company, and annually thereafter, at a pre-scheduled Compensation Committee meeting usually held during the first quarter of each year.

The 2012 Equity Incentive Plan provides that all unvested equity incentive awards, whether held by our NEOs or other employees, will become
vested on a change of control of the Company, unless the party acquiring control of the Company agrees to assume or to substitute comparable equity incentives for the outstanding equity incentive awards on terms approved by the Compensation
Committee.

Cash Incentive Plan. The Compensation Committee adopted an annual cash incentive or bonus plan for 2013, as it had in
previous years, to provide our executive officers and other key management employees with the opportunity to earn cash incentive awards or bonuses based on the Companys financial performance for the year. The primary purposes of these annual
cash bonus plans are to (i) provide meaningful incentives in the form of financial awards to our



9



---

##### Table of Contents

executive officers and other key management employees for making significant contributions to the Companys achievement of one or more annual financial goals, and (ii) to make the
portion of the annual cash compensation of each NEO and other plan participant, in excess of his or her annual base salary, dependent on the Companys financial performance and, thereby, promote the interests of the Company and its
stockholders. The amounts of the potential bonus awards that the NEOs could have earned under the 2013 cash incentive bonus plan ranged from 10% to 55% of their respective 2013 annual base salaries, depending on the extent to which they achieved or
exceeded a pre-tax earnings goal established by the Compensation Committee. However, no cash bonus awards were earned or paid to any of the NEOs or other participants under the 2013 cash incentive plan, because the Company did not achieve the 2013
threshold financial performance goal established under that plan.

Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans

We have not established any nonqualified deferred compensation programs for our NEOs or any other officers or employees.

CEO Employment Agreement and Potential Severance and Change of Control Payments

Employment Agreement with Mr. Musbach. On July 22, 2013, the Company entered into an employment agreement with its
President and Chief Executive Officer, James Musbach (the Employment Agreement). Set forth below is a summary of the material terms of the Employment Agreement. However, this summary is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its
entirety by reference to the Employment Agreement, which is incorporated herein by this reference from Exhibit 10.99 to the Companys Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 22, 2013, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
July 24, 2013.

Certain Material Employment Terms. Unless sooner terminated, the Employment Agreement will continue in effect
until December 31, 2014, at which time the Employment Agreement will expire unless renewed or extended by mutual agreement of the Company and Mr. Musbach. The Employment Agreement provides for payment to Mr. Musbach of a base salary
of $250,000 per year, which was unchanged from his base annual salary that had been in effect since March 1, 2013. The Employment Agreement also entitles Mr. Musbach to participate in employee benefit programs that are generally made
available to other full time employees and in cash bonus and stock incentive plans in which other executive officers are eligible to participate. If the Employment Agreement expires on December 31, 2014, Mr. Musbach will continue to be
employed, as an at-will employee of the Company, holding the position of President and Chief Executive of the Company, in which case his employment will be terminable thereafter by him and by the Company, with or without cause. Therefore, in the
event of any termination of Mr. Musbachs employment after expiration of the term of his Employment Agreement, the Companys sole obligation to Mr. Musbach under that Agreement would be to pay to Mr. Musbach any unpaid
salary and any fully vested but unpaid employee benefits accrued to the effective date of such termination.

Early Termination of
Employment. The Employment Agreement provides that if Mr. Musbachs employment is terminated, prior to the expiration of the term of the Employment Agreement (other than as a result of or in connection with a change of control of the
Company), either by the Company without cause or by Mr. Musbach due to certain actions taken by the Company that adversely affect his position as CEO (each of such actions, a Good Reason Event), Mr. Musbach would be entitled to
receive a lump sum severance payment in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) one years salary, at the annual rate then in effect, or (ii) the salary he would have been paid during what would have been the then remaining term
of the Employment Agreement had there been no such termination of employment, and all accrued or fully vested but unpaid benefits. If Mr. Musbachs employment is terminated by the Company for Cause (as defined in the Employment Agreement)
or due Mr. Musbachs death or disability, then the Companys sole obligation will be to pay to Mr. Musbach (or, in the event of his death, to his heirs) any then accrued but unpaid salary and benefits to the date of such
termination of employment.

Termination of Employment on or in connection with a Change of Control of the Company. If,
during the term of the Employment Agreement a change of control of the Company (as defined in that Agreement) occurs, and Mr. Musbachs employment is terminated, on or within 12 months of the occurrence of the change of control, either by
the Company or its successor, without Cause or by Mr. Musbach due to the occurrence of a Good Reason Event, Mr. Musbach would receive severance compensation consisting of (i) a lump sum payment in an amount equal to one years
annual base salary at the annual rate then in effect, (ii) the payment to him of his then accrued or fully vested but unpaid benefits, (iii) the payment or reimbursement by the Company thereafter of 50% of his COBRA health
insurance premium, and (iv) the vesting of his then unvested options and restricted shares.

No Other Employment, Severance
Compensation or Change of Control Agreements. We do not have any other employment, severance or change of control agreements with any of our other NEOs or other executive officers.

However, our stock incentive plans provide that all unvested options or restricted shares, whether held by NEOs or other employees, will
become vested on a change of control of the Company unless the party acquiring control of the Company agrees to assume or substitute comparable equity incentives for those outstanding options on terms approved by the Compensation Committee.

Director Compensation

Only non-employee
directors receive compensation for service on the Board of Directors and Committees of the Board. In 2013, each non-employee director received a retainer of $6,000 per year for his service as member of the Board of Directors, payable in quarterly
installments of $1,500 each, and a fee of $1,500 (i) for each Board meeting he attended and (ii) for each Committee meeting he attended on a date other than a date on which a Board meeting was held. Non-employee directors also are
reimbursed for their out-of-pocket expenses incurred in attending those meetings.

Pursuant to the Companys stockholder-approved
employee stock incentive plans, each year each non-employee director is automatically granted an option to purchase 2,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price that is equal to the per share closing price of the Companys shares on the
date of grant, as reported by the NYSE MKT. These options become fully exercisable six months after the date of grant. Upon joining the Board, any new non-employee director is granted an option to purchase 2,000 shares, which becomes exercisable in
full one year after the date of grant.

| | (1) | This column reports the amount of cash compensation earned in 2013 for Board and Committee service. Mr. Faludy was elected to the Board of Directors in November 2103 and no Board or Committee meetings were held
during the period in 2013 that he serve on the Board, and therefore, he did not earn any cash fees in 2013.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (2) | Amounts in this column represent the fair values of stock options granted to each director at the date of grant of the options, determined in accordance with FASB ASC 718. The fair values of options were estimated using
a binomial option valuation model which incorporates certain assumptions relating to a risk-free market interest rate, expected dividend yield of the Companys common stock, expected option life and expected volatility in the market value of
the our common stock. For a complete description of the valuation methodology and the assumptions used in the estimation, please refer to Note E, STOCK INCENTIVE PLANS to the Companys consolidated financial statements included in
Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

| | (3) | Represents the grant date fair value, determined in accordance with ASC 718, of an option to purchase 2,000 shares of common stock granted to Mr. Faludy on his election as a director on November 12, 2013. The
option vests (that is, becomes exercisable) within six months of the date of grant, provided that Mr. Faludy is still in the service of the Company on that date.

|(1) | Under SEC rules (i) a person is deemed to be the beneficial owner of shares if that person has, either alone or with others, the power to vote or dispose of those shares; and (ii) if a person holds options to
purchase shares of our common stock, that person will be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the number of those shares that may be purchased by exercise of those options at any time during a 60 day period which, for purposes of this table, will
end on June 20, 2014. The number of shares subject to options that are exercisable or may become exercisable during that 60-day period are deemed outstanding for purposes of computing the number of shares beneficially owned by, and the
percentage ownership of, the person holding such options, but not for computing the percentage ownership of any other stockholder. Except as otherwise noted below, the persons named in the table have sole voting and dispositive power with respect to
all shares shown as beneficially owned by them, subject to community property laws where applicable.

|ITEM 13. | CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
|-------- | ----------------------------------------------

Since the beginning of fiscal 2012, the
Company has not engaged in any transactions or any series of related transactions in which any executive officer or director of the Company or any 5% stockholder, or any member of the immediate family or any affiliates of any of the foregoing
persons, had any direct or indirect material interest, nor are there any such transactions currently contemplated by the Company, except for sales of products in the ordinary course of the Companys business to Lone Star RV, Inc., which in 2012
was, but in 2013 ceased to be, the beneficial owner of 5% of the Companys outstanding common stock. In 2012 such sales to Loan Star RV totaled approximately $525,000. All of such sales were made pursuant to standard purchase orders and on the
same terms, including prices, as sales in similar quantities of comparable products made by the Company to other unaffiliated customers and, in the aggregate, represented less than 0.05% of the Companys net sales in 2012. For these reasons,
these sales were not considered to be material to the Company or its operating results.



|ITEM 14. | PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES
|-------- | --------------------------------------

The accounting firm of Burr Pilger Mayer, Inc.
(Burr Pilger) served as the Companys independent registered public accounting firm for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Audit and Other Services Rendered and Related Fees

Audit Services. During each of the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, Burr Pilger rendered audit services to us consisting of:
(i) the annual audit of our consolidated financial statements for each of those years; and (ii) reviews of our interim consolidated financial statements that were included in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, filed with the SEC for the
quarters ended March 31, June 30 and September 30, in each of those years, respectively. Fees paid for those audit services totaled $283,760 for 2013 and $269,670 for 2012.

Audit Related Fees. During 2013 and 2012 Burr Pilger did not provide any audit related services to us.

Other Fees. In 2012, we paid fees of $11,200 to Burr Pilger for tax consulting services.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy

The
Audit Committees policy is to pre-approve services to be performed by the Companys independent registered public accountants in the categories of audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services. This policy is
designed to ensure that the provision of any non-audit services does not impair the independence of the Companys registered public accounting firm. Additionally, the Audit Committee will consider on a case-by-case basis and, if appropriate,
approve specific engagements that are not otherwise pre-approved.
