 Exhibit 10.14 

CLAIRE’S INC. 
 2021
LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN 
 Section 1. Purpose. The purpose of the Claire’s Inc. 2021 Long-Term Incentive Plan (as
amended from time to time, the “Plan”) is to motivate and reward employees and other individuals to perform at the highest level and contribute significantly to the success of Claire’s Inc. (the “Company”),
thereby furthering the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. 
 Section 2. Definitions. Certain capitalized terms
applicable to the Plan are set forth in Appendix A. 
 Section 3. Administration.
 
 (a) Administration of the Plan. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. All decisions of the Committee shall be
final, conclusive and binding upon all parties, including the Company, its stockholders, Eligible Persons and any Beneficiaries thereof. The Committee may issue rules and regulations for administration of the Plan. 

(b) Composition of Committee. To the extent necessary or desirable to comply with applicable regulatory regimes, any action by the
Committee shall require the approval of Committee members who are (i) independent, within the meaning of and to the extent required by applicable rulings and interpretations of the applicable stock market or exchange on which the Common Shares
are quoted or traded; and (ii) non-employee Directors within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. The Board may designate one or more Directors as
alternate members of the Committee who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the Committee. To the extent permitted by applicable law, including under Section 157(c) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the
Committee may delegate to one or more officers of the Company some or all of its authority under the Plan, including the authority to grant Awards (except that such delegation shall not be applicable to any Award for a Person then covered by
Section 16 of the Exchange Act), and the Committee may delegate to one or more committees of the Board (which may consist of solely one Director) some or all of its authority under the Plan, including the authority to grant all types of Awards,
in accordance with applicable law. 
 (c) Authority of Committee. Subject to the terms of the Plan and applicable law, the Committee
(or its delegate) shall have full discretion and authority to: (i) designate Eligible Persons; (ii) determine the type or types of Awards (including Substitute Awards) to be granted to each Eligible Person under the Plan;
(iii) determine the number of Common Shares to be covered by (or with respect to which payments, rights or other matters are to be calculated in connection with) Awards; (iv) determine the terms and conditions of any Award and prescribe
the form of each Award Agreement which need not be identical for each Participant; (v) determine whether, to what extent and under what circumstances Awards may be settled or exercised in cash, Common Shares, other Awards, other property, net
settlement, or any combination thereof, or 












 
canceled, forfeited or suspended, and the method or methods by which Awards may be settled, exercised, canceled, forfeited or suspended; (vi) amend terms or conditions of any outstanding
Awards; (vii) correct any defect, supply any omission and reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or any Award, in the manner and to the extent it shall deem desirable to carry the Plan into effect; (viii) interpret and administer the Plan
and any instrument or agreement relating to, or Award made under, the Plan; (ix) establish, amend, suspend or waive such rules and regulations and appoint such agents, trustees, brokers, depositories and advisors and determine such terms of
their engagement as it shall deem appropriate for the proper administration of the Plan and due compliance with applicable law, stock market or exchange rules and regulations or accounting or tax rules and regulations; and (x) make any other
determination and take any other action that the Committee deems necessary or desirable for the administration of the Plan and due compliance with applicable law, stock market or exchange rules and regulations or accounting or tax rules and
regulations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Board may, in its sole discretion, at any time and from time to time, grant Awards or administer the Plan. In any such case, the Board shall have all of the authority and
responsibility granted to the Committee herein. 
 Section 4. Participation. 

Subject to Section 3 and consistent with the purposes of the Plan, the Committee shall have exclusive power to select the Eligible Persons
who may participate in the Plan and be granted Awards under the Plan. Eligible Persons may be selected individually or by groups or categories, as determined by the Committee in its discretion. 

Section 5. Shares Available for Award. 

(a) Share Reserve. 

(i) Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 5(b) and except for Substitute Awards, the maximum number of Common
Shares available for issuance under the Plan shall not exceed                     Common Shares. The maximum number of Common Shares available for
issuance with respect to Incentive Stock Options shall be                     . Common Shares underlying Substitute Awards and Common Shares
remaining available for grant under a plan of an acquired company or of a company with which the Company combines (whether by way of amalgamation, merger, sale and purchase of shares or other securities or otherwise), appropriately adjusted to
reflect the acquisition or combination transaction, shall not reduce the number of Common Shares remaining available for grant hereunder. 

(ii) If any Award, in whole or in part, is forfeited, cancelled, expires, terminates or otherwise lapses, or is settled in cash
without the delivery of Common Shares, or if Common Shares are withheld by the Company in respect of taxes on Awards other than Options or Stock Appreciation Rights, then the corresponding Common Shares shall again be available for grant under the
Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, any Common Shares tendered or withheld to pay the exercise price of Options, or that are covered by a Stock Appreciation Right (to the extent that it is settled in Common Shares, without regard to the number of
Shares that are actually issued upon exercise), shall not again become available for issuance under the Plan. 

  
 2 













 (iii) Common Shares issued pursuant to the Plan may be either authorized but
unissued shares, treasury shares, reacquired shares or any combination thereof. 
 (b) Adjustments. In the event that the Committee
determines that, as a result of any dividend or other distribution (other than an ordinary dividend or distribution), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, separation, rights offering, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase or exchange of Common Shares or other securities of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase Common Shares or
other securities of the Company, issuance of Common Shares pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions of securities of the Company, or other similar corporate transaction or event affecting the Common Shares, or changes in applicable laws, regulations
or accounting principles, an adjustment is appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan, then the Committee shall, subject to compliance with
Section 409A of the Code and other applicable law, adjust equitably so as to ensure no undue enrichment or harm (including, without limitation, by payment of cash) any or all of: 

(i) the number and type of Common Shares (or other securities) which thereafter may be made the subject of Awards, including
the aggregate limits specified in Section 5(a); 
 (ii) the number and type of Common Shares (or other securities)
subject to outstanding Awards; 
 (iii) the grant, purchase, exercise or hurdle price with respect to any Award or, if deemed
appropriate, make provision for a cash payment to the holder of an outstanding Award; and 
 (iv) the terms and conditions of
any outstanding Awards, including the performance criteria of any Performance Awards. 
 provided, however, that the number of Common Shares
subject to any Award denominated in Common Shares shall always be a whole number. 
 (c)
Non-Employee Director Limits. The maximum number of Common Shares subject to Awards granted during a single fiscal year of the Company to any non-employee
Director, taken together with any cash fees paid during the fiscal year to the non-employee Director, in respect of the Director’s service as a member of the Board during such year (including service as a
member or chair of any committees of the Board), shall not exceed $750,000 in total value (calculating the value of any such Awards based on the grant date fair value of such Awards for financial reporting purposes). The independent Directors may
make exceptions to this limit for a non-executive chair of the Board, provided that the non-employee Director receiving such additional compensation may not
participate in the decision to award such compensation.

 Section 6. Awards under the Plan. 

(a) Types of Awards. Awards under the Plan may include, but need not be limited to, one or more of the following types, either alone or
in any combination thereof: (i) Options, (ii) Stock Appreciation Rights, (iii) Restricted Stock, (iv) Restricted Stock Units, (v) Performance Awards, (vi) Other Cash-Based Awards and (vii) Other Stock-Based Awards. 

(b) Rights with Respect to Common Shares and Other Securities. Except as provided in Section 9(c) with respect to Awards of
Restricted Stock and unless otherwise determined by the Committee in its discretion, a Participant to whom an Award is made (and any Person succeeding to such a Participant’s rights pursuant to the Plan) shall have no rights as a stockholder
with respect to any Common Shares or as a holder with respect to other securities, if any, issuable pursuant to any such Award until the date a stock certificate evidencing such Common Shares or other evidence of ownership is issued to such
Participant or until Participant’s ownership of such Common Shares shall have been entered into the books of the registrar in the case of uncertificated shares. 

(c) Award Agreements. Each Award granted or sold under the Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement in such form as the Committee
shall prescribe from time to time in accordance with the Plan and shall comply with the applicable terms and conditions of the Plan and applicable law, and with such other terms and conditions, including, but not limited to, treatment of the Award
upon a Separation from Service and restrictions upon the Option or the Common Shares issuable upon exercise thereof, as the Committee, in its discretion, shall establish. 

Section 7. Options. The Committee may grant Options to Eligible Persons with the following terms and conditions and with such
additional terms and conditions, in each case, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee shall determine; provided that an Incentive Stock Option may be granted only to Eligible Persons who are employees of the
Company or any parent or subsidiary of the Company within the meaning of Sections 424(e) and (f) of the Code, including a subsidiary which becomes such after adoption of the Plan. 

(a) The Committee shall determine the number of Common Shares to be subject to each Option and the exercise price per Common Share subject to
each Option. Except in the case of Substitute Awards, the exercise price of an Option shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Shares subject to such Option on the date of grant, as determined by the Committee; provided,
however, if an Incentive Stock Option is granted to a Ten Percent Employee, such exercise price shall not be less than 110% of such Fair Market Value at the time the Option is granted. 

  
 4 













 (b) Any Option may be exercised during its term only at such time or times and in such
installments as the Committee may establish. 
 (c) An Option shall not be exercisable: 

(i) in the case of any Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Employee, after the expiration of five years from the
date it is granted, and, in the case of any other Option, after the expiration of ten years from the date it is granted; and 

(ii) no shares shall be issued unless payment in full is made for the shares being acquired under such Option at the time of
exercise as provided in Section 7(e). 
 (d) In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the aggregate Fair Market Value of Common Shares
(determined at the time of grant of the Option) with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by an employee of the Company or a Subsidiary during any calendar year (under all such plans of his or her employer
corporation and its parent and subsidiary corporations within the meaning of Sections 424(e) and (f) of the Code) shall not exceed $100,000 or such other amount as is specified in the Code. An Incentive Stock Option that is exercised at a time
that is beyond the time an Incentive Stock Option may be exercised in order to qualify as such under the Code shall cease to be an Incentive Stock Option. 

(e) The Committee shall determine the method or methods by which, and the form or forms in which payment of the exercise price with respect
thereto may be made or deemed to have been made, including cash, Common Shares, other Awards, other property, net settlement, broker-assisted cashless exercise or any combination thereof, having a Fair Market Value on the exercise date equal to the
exercise price of the Common Shares as to which the Option shall be exercised. The Committee may provide in the applicable Award Agreement that, to the extent an Option is not previously exercised as to all of the Common Shares subject thereto, and,
if the Fair Market Value of one Common Share is greater than the exercise price then in effect, then the Option shall be deemed automatically exercised immediately before its expiration. 

(f) No grant of Options may be accompanied by a tandem award of dividend equivalents or provide for dividends, dividend equivalents or other
distributions to be paid on such Options. 
 (g) If the exercise of an Option is prevented by Section 19(f), the Option shall remain
exercisable until thirty days after the date such exercise first would no longer be prevented by such provision, but in any event no later than the expiration date of such Option. 

Section 8. Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee may grant Stock Appreciation Rights to Eligible Persons with the following
terms and conditions, and with such additional terms and conditions in each case not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee shall determine. 

  
 5 













 (a) Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted under the Plan to Eligible Persons either alone
or in addition to other Awards granted under the Plan and may, but need not, relate to a specific Option granted under Section 7. 
 (b)
The Committee shall determine the number of Common Shares to be subject to each Award of Stock Appreciation Rights and the exercise or hurdle price per Common Share subject to each Stock Appreciation Right. Except in the case of Substitute Awards,
Stock Appreciation Rights shall have an exercise or hurdle price no less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Shares subject to such Stock Appreciation Right on the date of grant, as determined by the Committee. 

(c) Any Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised during its term only at such time or times and in such installments as the Committee may
establish and shall not be exercisable after the expiration of ten years from the date it is granted. 
 (d) An Award of Stock Appreciation
Rights shall entitle the holder to exercise such Award and to receive from the Company in exchange thereof, without payment to the Company, that number of Common Shares or cash or some combination thereof having an aggregate value equal to the
excess of the Fair Market Value of one Common Share, at the time of such exercise, over the exercise or hurdle price, times the number of Common Shares subject to the Award, or portion thereof, that is so exercised or surrendered, as the case may
be. The Committee may provide in the applicable Award Agreement that, to the extent a Stock Appreciation Right is not previously exercised as to all of the Common Shares subject thereto, and, if the Fair Market Value of one Common Share is greater
than the exercise or hurdle price then in effect, then the Stock Appreciation Right shall be deemed automatically exercised immediately before its expiration. 

(e) No grant of Stock Appreciation Rights may be accompanied by a tandem award of dividend equivalents or provide for dividends, dividend
equivalents or other distributions to be paid on such Stock Appreciation Rights. 
 (f) If the exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right is
prevented by Section 19(f), the Stock Appreciation Right shall remain exercisable until thirty days after the date such exercise first would no longer be prevented by such provision, but in any event no later than the expiration date of such
Stock Appreciation Right.  
 Section 9. Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock
Units. The Committee is authorized to grant Awards of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units to Eligible Persons with the following terms and conditions and with such additional terms and conditions, in each case not inconsistent with the
provisions of the Plan, as the Committee shall determine. 
 (a) The Committee shall determine the number of Common Shares to be issued to a
Participant pursuant to the Award of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units, and the extent, if any, to which they shall be issued in exchange for cash, other consideration, or both. The Award Agreement shall specify the vesting schedule and
such other applicable conditions and restrictions and, with respect to Restricted Stock Units, shall specify the delivery schedule. 

  
 6 













 (b) Until the expiration of such period as the Committee shall determine from the date on
which the Award is granted and subject to such other terms and conditions as the Committee, in its discretion, shall establish (the “Restricted Period”), a Participant to whom an Award of Restricted Stock is made shall be issued,
but shall not be entitled to the delivery of, a stock certificate or other evidence of ownership representing the Common Shares subject to such Award. 

(c) Unless otherwise determined by the Committee in its discretion, a Participant to whom an Award of Restricted Stock has been made (and any
Person succeeding to such a Participant’s rights pursuant to the Plan) shall have, after issuance of a certificate for the number of Common Shares awarded (or after the Participant’s ownership of such Common Shares shall have been entered
into the books of the registrar in the case of uncertificated shares) and prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, ownership of such Common Shares, including the right to vote such Common Shares and to receive dividends or other
distributions made or paid with respect to such Common Shares, provided that, such Common Shares, and any new, additional or different shares, or other Company securities or property, or other forms of consideration that the Participant may
be entitled to receive with respect to such Common Shares as a result of a stock split, stock dividend or any other change in the corporation or capital structure of the Company, shall be subject to the restrictions set forth in the Award and the
Plan. A Restricted Stock Unit shall not convey to the Participant the rights and privileges of a stockholder with respect to the Common Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Unit, such as the right to vote or the right to receive dividends, unless
and until a Common Share is issued to the Participant to settle the Restricted Stock Unit. 
 (d) The Committee may, in its discretion,
specify in the applicable Award Agreement that any or all dividends, dividend equivalents or other distributions, as applicable, paid on Awards of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units prior to vesting or settlement, as applicable, be paid
either in cash or in additional Common Shares and that such dividends, dividend equivalents or other distributions may be reinvested in additional Common Shares, which may be subject to the same restrictions as the underlying Awards. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, dividends and dividend equivalents with respect to Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units that are granted as Performance Awards shall vest only if and to the extent that the underlying Performance Award vests, as determined by
the Committee. 
 (e) The Committee may determine the form or forms (including cash, Common Shares, other Awards, other property or any
combination thereof) in which payment of the amount owing upon settlement of any Restricted Stock Unit may be made. 

  
 7 













 (f) The Committee may provide in an Award Agreement that an Award of Restricted Stock is
conditioned upon the Participant making or refraining from making an election with respect to the Award under Section 83(b) of the Code. If a Participant makes an election pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code with respect to an
Award of Restricted Stock, such Participant shall be required to file within the time period required by Section 83(b) of the Code a copy of such election with the Company and the applicable Internal Revenue Service office. 

Section 10. Performance Awards. The Committee is authorized to grant Performance Awards to Participants with the following terms
and conditions and with such additional terms and conditions, in either case not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee shall determine: 

(a) Performance Awards may be denominated as a cash amount, number of Common Shares or units or a combination thereof, and may be earned upon
achievement or satisfaction of performance conditions specified by the Committee (including, without limitation, cash flow, earnings (including EBITDA or some variation thereof), earnings per share, debt, return on investment, stock price, total or
relative increases to stockholder return, operating income or net operating income, gross margin, operating margin or profit margin, and other financial or non-financial operating and management performance
objectives). The Committee may use such business criteria and other measures of performance as it may deem appropriate in establishing any performance conditions. Subject to the terms of the Plan, the performance goals to be achieved during any
Performance Period, the length of any Performance Period, the amount of any Performance Award granted and the amount of any payment or transfer to be made pursuant to any Performance Award shall be determined by the Committee. 

(b) Performance criteria may be measured on an absolute (e.g., plan or budget) or relative basis, and may be established on a
corporate-wide basis, with respect to one or more business units, divisions, Subsidiaries or business segments, or on an individual basis. If the Committee determines that a change in the business, operations, corporate structure or capital
structure of the Company, or the manner in which the Company conducts its business, or other events or circumstances render the performance objectives unsuitable, the Committee may modify the performance objectives or the related minimum acceptable
level of achievement, in whole or in part, as the Committee deems appropriate and equitable such that it does not provide any undue enrichment or harm. Performance measures may vary from Performance Award to Performance Award and from Participant to
Participant, and may be established on a stand-alone basis, in tandem or in the alternative. The Committee shall have the power to impose such other restrictions on Awards subject to this Section 10(b) as it may deem necessary or appropriate to
ensure that such Awards satisfy all requirements of any applicable law, stock market or exchange rules and regulations or accounting or tax rules and regulations. 

(c) Performance Awards may be settled in cash, Common Shares, other Awards, other property, or any combination thereof, and at such times, as
determined in the discretion of the Committee. 

  
 8 













 (d) A Performance Award shall not convey to a Participant the rights and privileges of a
stockholder with respect to any Common Shares subject to such Performance Award, such as the right to vote (except as relates to Restricted Stock) or the right to receive dividends, unless and until and to the extent Common Shares are issued to such
Participant to settle such Performance Award. The Committee may, in its discretion, specify in the applicable Award Agreement that any or all dividends, dividend equivalents or other distributions, as applicable, paid on a Performance Award during
the period that such Performance Award is outstanding, be paid either in cash or in additional Common Shares and that such dividends, dividend equivalents or other distributions may be reinvested in additional Common Shares, which may be subject to
the same restrictions as the underlying Awards. For the avoidance of doubt, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, no dividend equivalent rights shall be provided with respect to any Common Shares subject to Performance Awards that are not
earned or otherwise do not vest or settle pursuant to their terms. 
 (e) The Committee may, in its discretion, increase or reduce the amount
of a settlement otherwise to be made in connection with a Performance Award. 
 Section 11. Other Cash-Based Awards and Other
Stock-Based Awards. The Committee may grant Other Cash-Based Awards (either independently or as an element of or supplement to any other Award under the Plan) and Other Share-Based Awards to Eligible Persons with the following terms and
conditions and with such additional terms and conditions, in each case not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee shall determine, which shall consist of any right that is (i) not an Award described in Sections 7 through
10 above and (ii) an Award of Common Shares or cash or an Award denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on or related to, Common Shares (including, without limitation, securities convertible
into Common Shares), as deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan. Subject to the terms of the Plan and any applicable Award Agreement, the Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of any such Other Cash-Based
Award or Other Share-Based Award. 
 Section 12. Effect of Separation from Service or a Change in Control on Awards. 

(a) The Committee may provide, by rule or regulation or in any applicable Award Agreement, or may determine in any individual case, the
circumstances in which, and the extent to which, an Award may be exercised, settled, vested, paid or forfeited in the event of the Participant’s Separation from Service prior to the end of a Performance Period or vesting, exercise or settlement
of such Award. 
 (b) The Committee may determine, in its discretion, whether, and the extent to which, (i) an Award will vest during a
leave of absence, (ii) a reduction in service level (for example, from full-time to part-time employment) will cause a reduction, or other change, to an Award and (iii) a leave of absence or reduction in service will be deemed a Separation
from Service, in each case subject to the provisions of Section 409A. 

  
 9 













 (c) In the event of a Change in Control, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, and on
such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, take any one or more of the following actions with respect to any outstanding Award, which need not be uniform with respect to all Participants and/or Awards: 

(i) continuation or assumption of such Award by the Company (if it is the surviving entity) or by the successor or surviving
corporation or its parent; 
 (ii) substitution or replacement of such Award by the successor or surviving entity or its
parent with cash, securities, rights or other property to be paid or issued, as the case may be, by the successor or surviving entity (or a parent or subsidiary thereof), with substantially the same terms and value as such Award (including, without
limitation, any applicable performance targets or criteria with respect thereto); 
 (iii) acceleration of the vesting of
such Award and the lapse of any restrictions thereon and, in the case of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right, acceleration of the right to exercise such Award during a specified period (and the termination of such Option or Stock Appreciation
Right without payment of any consideration therefor to the extent such Award is not timely exercised), in each case, either (A) immediately prior to or as of the date of the Change in Control, (B) upon the Participant’s involuntary
Separation from Service (including upon a termination of the Participant’s employment by the Company (or a successor entity or its parent) without “cause” or by the Participant for “good reason”, as such terms may be defined
in the applicable Award Agreement and/or the Participant’s employment agreement or offer letter, as the case may be) on or within a specified period following such Change in Control or (C) upon the failure of the successor or surviving
entity (or its parent) to continue or assume such Award; 
 (iv) in the case of a Performance Award, determination of the
level of attainment of the applicable performance condition(s); and 
 (v) cancellation of such Award in consideration of a
payment, with the form, amount and timing of such payment determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, subject to the following: (A) such payment shall be made in cash, securities, rights and/or other property; (B) the amount of
such payment shall equal the value of such Award, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion; provided that, in the case of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right, if such value equals the Intrinsic Value of such Award, such value
shall be deemed to be valid; provided further that, if the Intrinsic Value of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right is equal to or less than zero, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide for the cancellation of such Award
without payment of any consideration therefor (for the avoidance of doubt, in the event of a Change in Control, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, terminate any Option or Stock Appreciation Right for which the exercise or hurdle price is
equal to or exceeds the per Common Share value of the consideration to be paid in the Change in Control transaction without payment of consideration therefor); and (C) such payment shall be made promptly following such Change in Control or on a
specified date or dates following such Change in Control; provided that the timing of such payment shall comply with Section 409A. 

  
 10 













 Section 13. Section 409A. Notwithstanding any provision of
the Plan or an Award Agreement to the contrary, if any Award provided under the Plan is subject to the provisions of Section 409A, the provisions of the Plan and any applicable Award Agreement shall be administered, interpreted and construed in
a manner necessary in order to comply with Section 409A or an exception thereto (or disregarded to the extent such provision cannot be so administered, interpreted or construed), and the following provisions shall apply, as applicable and as
required by Section 409A: 
 (a) If a Participant is a “specified employee” under Section 409A and a payment subject to
Section 409A (and not excepted therefrom) to the Participant is due upon Separation from Service, such payment shall be delayed for a period of six (6) months after the date the Participant Separates from Service (or, if earlier, the death
of the Participant). Any payment that would otherwise have been due or owing during such six-month period will be paid immediately following the end of the six-month
period unless another compliant date is specified in the applicable agreement. If an Award includes a “series of installment payments” (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii)),
a Participant’s right to such series of installment payments shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments and not as a right to a single payment, and if an Award includes “dividend equivalents” (within the meaning of
Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-3(e)), a Participant’s right to such dividend equivalents shall be treated separately from the right to other amounts under the Award. 

(b) For purposes of Section 409A, and to the extent applicable to any Award under the Plan, it is intended that distribution events
qualify as permissible distribution events for purposes of Section 409A and shall be interpreted and construed accordingly. Whether a Participant has Separated from Service will be determined by the Committee based on all of the facts and
circumstances and, to the extent applicable to any Award, in accordance with the guidance issued under Section 409A. 
 (c) The grant of
Non-Qualified Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights and other stock rights subject to Section 409A are intended to be granted under terms and conditions consistent with Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(5) such that any such Award does not constitute a deferral of compensation under Section 409A. 

Section 14. Deferred Payments. The Committee, in its discretion, may specify the conditions under which the payment of all or any
portion of any cash compensation, or Common Shares or other form of payment under an Award, may be deferred until a later date. Deferrals shall be for such periods or until the occurrence of such events, and upon such terms and conditions, as the
Committee shall determine in its discretion, in accordance with the provisions of Section 409A; provided, however, that no deferral shall be permitted with respect to Options or Stock Appreciation Rights; and provided, further,
that no deferral that could result in any Restricted Stock Units settled under the Claire’s Holdings LLC 2018 Management Incentive Plan being subject to taxation under Section 409A of the Code shall be permitted. 

  
 11 













 Section 15. Transferability of Awards. Except pursuant to the laws of descent
and distribution, a Participant’s rights and interest under the Plan or any Award may not be assigned or transferred, hypothecated or encumbered in whole or in part, including, but not by way of limitation, execution, levy, garnishment,
attachment, pledge, bankruptcy or in any other manner; provided, however, the Committee may permit such transfer to a Permitted Transferee; and provided, further, that, unless otherwise permitted by the Code, any Incentive Stock
Option granted pursuant to the Plan shall not be transferable other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and shall be exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by a Participant. 

Section 16. Amendment or Substitution of Awards under the Plan. 

(a) The terms of any outstanding Award under the Plan may be amended or modified from time to time after grant by the Committee in its
discretion in any manner that it deems appropriate (including, but not limited to, acceleration of the date of exercise of any Award and/or payments under any Award) in accordance with the terms of the Plan. Subject to Section 5(b) and
Section 12, no such amendments or acceleration shall adversely affect in a material manner any right of a Participant under the Award without his or her written consent, except (x) to the extent necessary to conform the provisions of the
Award with Section 409A or any other provision of the Code or other applicable law, stock market or exchange rules and regulations or accounting or tax rules and regulations, or (y) to impose any “clawback” or recoupment
provisions on any Awards (including any amounts or benefits arising from such Awards) in accordance with Section 19(o). The Committee may, in its discretion, permit holders of Awards under the Plan to surrender outstanding Awards in order to
exercise or realize the rights under other Awards, or in exchange for the grant of new Awards, or require holders of Awards to surrender outstanding Awards as a condition precedent to the grant of new Awards under the Plan. 

(b) No Repricing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as provided in Section 5(b), no action shall directly or indirectly,
through cancellation and regrant or any other method, reduce, or have the effect of reducing, the exercise or hurdle price of any “out of the money” Award established at the time of grant thereof without approval of the Company’s
stockholders, including (i) amending or modifying the terms of the Award to lower the exercise or hurdle price; (ii) cancelling the Award and granting either (A) replacement Options, Stock Appreciation Rights or similar Awards having
a lower exercise or hurdle price or (B) Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Awards or Other Share-Based Awards in exchange; or (iii) cancelling or repurchasing the out of the money Options, Stock Appreciation Rights or
similar Awards for cash or other securities. 
 Section 17. Termination of a Participant. For all purposes under the Plan, the
Committee shall determine whether a Participant has Separated from Service, terminated employment with, or terminated the performance of services for, the Company or any Subsidiary; provided, however, an absence or leave approved by the
Company, to the extent permitted by applicable provisions of the Code, shall not be considered an interruption of employment or performance of services for any purpose under the Plan.

 Section 18. Designation of Beneficiary by Participant. A Participant may name a
beneficiary to receive any payment to which such Participant may be entitled with respect to any Award under the Plan in the event of his or her death, on a written form to be provided by and filed with the Committee, and in a manner determined by
the Committee in its discretion (a “Beneficiary”). The Committee reserves the right to review and approve Beneficiary designations. A Participant may change his or her Beneficiary from time to time in a manner determined by the
Committee in its discretion, unless such Participant has made an irrevocable designation. Any designation of a Beneficiary under the Plan (to the extent it is valid and enforceable under applicable law) shall be controlling over any other
disposition, testamentary or otherwise, as determined by the Committee in its discretion. If no designated Beneficiary survives the Participant and is living on the date on which any amount becomes payable to such a Participant’s Beneficiary,
such payment will be made to the legal representatives of the Participant’s estate, and the term “Beneficiary” as used in the Plan shall be deemed to include such Person or Persons. If there are any questions as to the legal
right of any Beneficiary to receive a distribution under the Plan, the Committee in its discretion may determine that the amount in question be paid to the legal representatives of the estate of the Participant, in which event the Company, the
Board, the Committee, the designated administrator (if any), and the members thereof, will have no further liability to anyone with respect to such amount. 

Section 19. Miscellaneous Provisions. 

(a) Any proceeds from Awards shall constitute general funds of the Company. 

(b) No fractional shares may be delivered under an Award, but in lieu thereof a cash or other adjustment may be made as determined by the
Committee in its discretion. 
 (c) No Eligible Person or other Person shall have any claim or right to be granted an Award under the Plan.
Determinations made by the Committee under the Plan need not be uniform and may be made selectively among Eligible Persons under the Plan, whether or not such Eligible Persons are similarly situated. Neither the Plan nor any action taken under the
Plan shall be construed as giving any Eligible Person any right to continue to be employed by or perform services for the Company, and the Company specifically reserves the right to terminate the employment of, or performance of services by,
Eligible Persons at any time and for any reason. 
 (d) No Participant or other Person shall have any right with respect to the Plan or the
Common Shares reserved for issuance under the Plan or in any Award, contingent or otherwise, until written evidence of the Award shall have been delivered to the Participant and all the terms, conditions and provisions of the Plan and the Award
applicable to such Participant (and each Person claiming under or through him or her) have been met. 
 (e) No payment pursuant to the Plan
shall be taken into account in determining any benefits under any severance, pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare or other benefit plan of the Company or any Affiliate, except to the extent otherwise expressly
provided in writing in such other plan or an agreement thereunder. 

  
 13 













 (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Plan or in any Award
Agreement, each Award shall be subject to the requirement, if at any time the Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion, that such requirement shall apply, that the listing, registration or qualification of any Award under the Plan, or of
the Common Shares, other Company securities or property or other forms of payment issuable pursuant to any Award under the Plan, on any stock exchange or other market quotation system or under any federal or state law, or the consent or approval of
any government regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the granting of such Award or the exercise or settlement thereof, such Award shall not be granted, exercised or settled in whole or in part until
such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected, obtained and maintained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Committee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Plan or in any Award
Agreement, no Common Shares, other Company securities or property or other forms of payment shall be issued under the Plan with respect to any Award unless the Committee shall be satisfied that such issuance will be in compliance with applicable law
and any applicable rules of any stock exchange or other market quotation system on which such Common Shares are listed. If the Committee determines that the exercise of any Option or Stock Appreciation Right would fail to comply with any applicable
law or any applicable rules of any stock exchange or other market quotation system on which Common Shares are listed, the Participant holding such Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall have no right to exercise such Option or Stock Appreciation
Right until such time as the Committee shall have determined that such exercise will not violate any applicable law or any such applicable rule. 

(g) Although it is the intent of Company that the Plan and Awards hereunder, to the extent the Committee deems appropriate and to the extent
applicable, comply with Rule 16b-3 and Sections 409A and 422; (i) the Company does not warrant that any Award under the Plan will qualify for favorable tax treatment under any provision of federal, state,
local or non-United States law; and (ii) in no event shall any member of the Committee or the Company (or its employees, officers or directors) have any liability to any Participant (or any other Person)
due to the failure of an Award to satisfy the requirements of Rule 16b-3 or Section 409A or 422 or, as applicable, for any tax, interest, or penalties the Participant might owe as a result of the grant,
holding, vesting, exercise, or payment of any Award under the Plan. 
 (h) The Company shall have the right to deduct from any payment made
under the Plan any federal, state, local or foreign income or other taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to such payment. It shall be a condition to the obligation of Company to issue Common Shares, other securities or property, or
other forms of payment, or any combination thereof, upon exercise, settlement or payment of any Award under the Plan, that the Participant (or any Beneficiary or Person entitled to act) pay to Company, upon its demand, such amount as may be required
by the Company for the purpose of satisfying any liability to withhold federal, state, local or foreign income or 

  
 14 













 
other taxes. If the amount requested is not paid, Company may refuse to issue Common Shares, other securities or property, or other forms of payment, or any combination thereof. Notwithstanding
anything in this Plan to the contrary, the Committee may, in its discretion, permit an Eligible Person (or any Beneficiary or Person entitled to act) to elect to pay a portion or all of the amount requested by the Company for such taxes with respect
to such Award, at such time and in such manner as the Committee shall deem to be appropriate (including, but not limited to, by authorizing the Company to withhold, or agreeing to surrender to the Company on or about the date such tax liability is
determinable, Common Shares, other securities or property, or other forms of payment, or any combination thereof, owned by such Person or a portion of such forms of payment that would otherwise be distributed, or have been distributed, as the case
may be, pursuant to such Award to such Person, having a market value equal to the amount of such taxes); provided, however, that any broker-assisted cashless exercise shall comply with the requirements of Financial Accounting Standards Board,
Accounting Standards Codification, Topic 718, and any withholding satisfied through a net-settlement of an Award shall be limited to the maximum statutory withholding requirements. 

(i) The expenses of the Plan shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, the Company may recover from a Participant or his or her
Beneficiary, heirs or assigns any and all damages, fees, expenses and costs incurred by the Company arising out of any actions taken by a Participant in breach of the Plan or any applicable Award Agreement. 

(j) The Plan shall be unfunded. The Company shall not be required to establish any special or separate fund or to make any other segregation of
assets to assure the payment of any Award under the Plan, and rights to the payment of Awards shall be no greater than the rights of the Company’s general creditors. 

(k) By accepting any Award or other benefit under the Plan, each Participant (and each Person claiming under or through him or her) shall be
conclusively deemed to have indicated his or her acceptance and ratification of, and consent to, any action taken under the Plan by the Company, the Board, the Committee or the designated administrator (if applicable). 

(l) Records of the Company shall be conclusive for all purposes under the Plan or any Award, unless determined by the Committee to be
incorrect. 
 (m) If any provision of the Plan or any Award is held to be illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity
shall not affect the remaining provisions of the Plan or any Award, but such provision shall be fully severable, and the Plan or Award, as applicable, shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had never been included in
the Plan or Award, as applicable. 
 (n) The terms of the Plan shall govern all Awards under the Plan and in no event shall the Committee
have the power to grant any Award under the Plan that is contrary to any of the provisions of the Plan. 

  
 15 













 (o) The Committee may specify in an Award Agreement that a Participant’s rights,
payments and benefits with respect to an Award shall be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, in addition to any otherwise applicable vesting or performance conditions of an
Award. Such events may include a Separation from Service with or without “cause” (and, in the case of any “cause” that is resulting from an indictment or other non-final determination, the
Committee may provide for such Award to be held in escrow or abeyance until a final resolution of the matters related to such event occurs, at which time the Award shall either be reduced, cancelled or forfeited (as provided in such Award Agreement)
or remain in effect, depending on the outcome), violation of material policies, breach of non-competition, non-solicitation, confidentiality or other restrictive
covenants, or requirements to comply with minimum share ownership requirements, that may apply to the Participant, or other conduct by the Participant that is detrimental to the business or reputation of the Company and/or its Affiliates. The
Committee shall have full authority to implement any policies and procedures necessary to comply with Section 10D of the Exchange Act and any rules promulgated thereunder and any other regulatory regimes. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, any Awards granted under the Plan (including any amounts or benefits arising from such Awards) shall be subject to any clawback or recoupment arrangements or policies the Company has in place from time to time, and the
Committee may, to the extent permitted by applicable law and stock exchange rules or by any applicable Company policy or arrangement, and shall, to the extent required, cancel or require reimbursement of any Awards granted to the Participant or any
Common Shares issued or cash received upon vesting, exercise or settlement of any such Awards or sale of Common Shares underlying such Awards. 

(p) The Committee may from time to time establish sub-plans under the Plan for purposes of satisfying
securities, tax or other laws of various jurisdictions in which the Company intends to grant Awards. Any sub-plans shall contain such limitations and other terms and conditions as the Committee determines are
necessary or desirable. All sub-plans shall be deemed a part of the Plan, but, if applicable, each sub-plan shall apply only to the Participants in the jurisdiction for
which the sub-plan was designed. Awards may be granted to Participants who are non-United States nationals or employed or providing services outside the United States,
or both, on such terms and conditions different from those applicable to Awards to Participants who are employed or providing services in the United States as may, in the judgment of the Committee, be necessary or desirable to recognize differences
in local law, tax policy or custom. 
 (q) All certificates, if any, for Common Shares and/or other securities delivered under the Plan
pursuant to any Award or the exercise or settlement thereof shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the Plan or the rules, regulations and other requirements of the Securities
and Exchange Commission, any stock market or exchange upon which such Common Shares or other securities are then quoted, traded or listed, and any applicable securities laws, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such
certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions. 

  
 16 













 (r) The Company will not be obligated to deliver any Common Shares under the Plan or remove
restrictions from Common Shares previously delivered under the Plan until (i) all Award conditions have been met or removed to the Committee’s satisfaction, (ii) as determined by the Committee, all other legal matters regarding the
issuance and delivery of such Common Shares have been satisfied, including any applicable securities laws, stock market or exchange rules and regulations or accounting or tax rules and regulations and (iii) the Participant has executed and
delivered to the Company such representations or agreements as the Committee deems necessary or appropriate to satisfy any applicable laws. The Company’s inability to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which the
Committee determines is necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Common Shares, will relieve the Company of any liability for failing to issue or sell such Common Shares as to which such requisite authority has not been obtained. 

(s) The Committee may impose restrictions on any Award with respect to non-competition, non-solicitation, confidentiality and other restrictive covenants, or requirements to comply with minimum share ownership requirements, as it deems necessary or appropriate in its sole discretion, which such
restrictions may be set forth in any applicable Award Agreement or otherwise. 
 Section 20. Effective Date. The Plan shall be
effective on the Effective Date, provided that the Board and the Company’s stockholders may approve the Plan prior to such date. 

Section 21. Amendment or Termination. 

(a) Plan Amendment or Termination. Except to the extent prohibited by applicable law, the Plan may be amended, suspended, discontinued
or terminated in whole or in part at any time and/or from time to time by the Committee; provided that no such amendment, suspension, discontinuation or termination shall be made without stockholder approval if such approval is necessary to
qualify for or comply with any tax or regulatory requirement, other applicable law or the rules of the stock market or exchange, if any, on which the Common Shares are principally quoted or traded for which the Committee deems it necessary or
desirable to qualify or comply. No amendment of the Plan shall adversely affect in a material manner any right of any Participant with respect to any Award previously granted without such Participant’s written consent, except as permitted under
Section 5(b) and Section 12. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Committee may at any time (without the consent of any Participant) modify, amend or terminate any or all of the provisions of the
Plan to the extent necessary to conform the provisions of the Plan with Section 409A or any other provision of the Code or other applicable law, the regulations issued thereunder or an exception thereto, regardless of whether such modification,
amendment or termination of the Plan shall adversely affect the rights of a Participant. 
 (b) Dissolution or Liquidation. In the
event of the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, each Award shall terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such action, unless otherwise determined by the Committee. 

  
 17 













 Section 22. Term of the Plan. No Awards shall be granted under the Plan after
earlier of the following dates or events to occur: 
 (a) upon the adoption of a resolution of the Board terminating the Plan; 

(b) the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date; or 

(c) the maximum number of Common Shares available for issuance under the Plan has been issued. 

However, unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or in an applicable Award Agreement, any Award theretofore granted may extend beyond such date, and
the authority of the Committee to amend, alter, adjust, suspend, discontinue or terminate any such Award, or to waive any conditions or rights under any such Award, and the authority of the Committee to amend the Plan, shall extend beyond such date.

 Section 23. Governing Law. The Plan and any Award granted under the Plan as well as any determinations made or actions taken
under the Plan shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of Delaware without regard to its choice or conflicts of laws principles.

the ownership or effective control of the Company, or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the Company’s assets (in either case, as defined in Section 409A of the Code), such amount shall not be accelerated on such Change in
Control but instead shall vest as of such Change in Control and shall be distributed on the scheduled payment date specified in the applicable Award Agreement, except to the extent that earlier distribution would not result in the Participant who
