|Item 11. | Executive Compensation
|-------- | ----------------------

COMPENSATION
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Overview of Our Compensation Program and Philosophy

Our compensation program is intended to meet three principal objectives: (1) attract, reward and retain qualified, energetic officers
and other key employees; (2) motivate these individuals to achieve short-term and long-term corporate goals that enhance shareholder value; and (3) support our corporate values by promoting internal equity and external competitiveness.

Our corporate values: personal development, health and wellness, and social and environmental responsibility.

Our executive compensation program is overseen and administered by the compensation committee of our board of directors,
which is comprised entirely of independent directors as determined in accordance with various NASDAQ, Securities and Exchange

##### Table of Contents

Commission and Internal Revenue Code rules. Our compensation committee operates under a written charter adopted by our board and is empowered to review and approve the annual compensation for our
current executive officers: Mr. Rysavy, Ms. Powers, Mr. Sondheim, Mr. Jackson, and Mr. Thomas. A copy of the charter is available in the investors section of our website at: www.gaiam.com.

The principal objectives that guide our compensation committee in assessing our executive and other compensation programs include the
proper allocation between long-term compensation, current cash compensation, and short-term bonus compensation. Other considerations include our business objectives, our fiduciary and corporate responsibilities (including internal considerations of
fairness and affordability), competitive practices and trends, general economic conditions and regulatory requirements.

In
determining the particular elements of compensation that will be used to implement our overall compensation objectives, our compensation committee takes into consideration a number of factors related to our performance, such as our earnings per
share, profitability, revenue growth, and business-unit-specific operational and financial performance, as well as the competitive environment for our business. Stock price performance has not been a factor in determining annual compensation because
the price of our common stock is subject to a variety of factors outside of our control. Our compensation committee may, when appropriate as determined on an annual basis, identify individual performance goals for executive and other officers, which
goals may play a significant role in determining such officers incentive compensation for that year and which may be taken into consideration in setting base salary for the next year.

From time to time, our compensation committee meets with our Chairman, Jirka Rysavy, and our Chief Executive Officer, Lynn Powers, and/or
other executives to obtain recommendations with respect to our compensation programs, practices and packages for executives, other employees and directors. Our management makes recommendations to our compensation committee on the base salary, bonus
targets and equity compensation for the executive team and other employees. Our compensation committee considers, but is not bound by and does not always accept, managements recommendations with respect to executive compensation.

Our compensation committee has also in the past received input from an independent compensation consultant prior to finalizing
determinations on material aspects of our compensation programs, practices and packages, and it expects to do so again from time to time.

Mr. Rysavy attends some of our compensation committees meetings, but our compensation committee also holds executive sessions not attended by any members of management or non-independent
directors. Our compensation committee discusses Mr. Rysavys and Ms. Powers compensation packages with each of them, but makes decisions with respect to their compensation without them present. Our compensation committee has the
ultimate authority to make decisions with respect to the compensation of our named executive officers, but may, if it chooses, delegate any of its responsibilities to subcommittees. Our compensation committee has delegated to the administrative
committee of our board of directors, comprised of Mr. Rysavy and Ms. Powers, the authority to grant long-term incentive awards to employees at or below the level of vice president under guidelines set by our compensation committee.

Elements of Our Compensation Program

Our compensation committee believes that compensation paid to executive officers and other members of our senior management should be closely aligned with our performance on both a short-term and a
long-term basis, and that such compensation should assist us in attracting and retaining talented persons who are committed to our mission and critical to our long-term success. To that end, our compensation committee believes that the compensation
packages for executive officers should consist of three principal components:



| |  |  | Base Salary. Base salaries for executive officers are reviewed on an annual basis and at the time of promotion or other change in
responsibilities. Starting salary levels and increases in salary are based on subjective evaluation of such factors as the level of responsibility, individual performance, market value of the officers skill set, and relative salary differences
within our company for different job levels. Consideration of the same factors, and general economic conditions, may also result in the reduction of an officers base salary.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Annual Incentive Bonus. Annual incentive bonuses are awarded in the discretion of our compensation committee and generally granted
based on a percentage of each executive officers base salary. Our executive officers annual incentive bonus potentials are expected to range from approximately 30% to 100% of each executive officers base salary, depending upon his
or her position. After the end of the year, our compensation committee reviews our business unit and overall financial performance and each executive officers individual performance in determining whether such executive officer should be
awarded a bonus.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Long-Term Incentive Compensation. We may grant long-term, performance-based compensation to executive officers and other employees
in the form of stock option awards granted pursuant to our 2009 Long-Term Incentive Plan.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

Our compensation committee believes in the importance of equity ownership for all executive
officers and a broader-based segment of our work force, for purposes of economic incentive, key employee retention and alignment of employees interests with those of shareholders. Our compensation committee believes that both our 1999
Long-Term Incentive Plan and our 2009 Long-Term Incentive Plan provide valuable flexibility to achieve a balance between providing equity-based compensation for employees and creating and maintaining long-term shareholder value. At the time of the
potential hire of an executive officer candidate, our compensation committee will make its determination regarding long-term incentive compensation awards based upon prevailing compensation levels in the market for the individuals position.
Thereafter, such determinations will be based upon the executive officers past and expected future contributions to our business.

Stock option grants are typically made when a new executive officer is hired, and in determining the size of stock option grants, our compensation committee bases its determinations on such subjective
considerations as the individuals position within management, experience, market value of the executives skill set, and historical grant amounts to similarly positioned executives of our company. Our policy is that the exercise price of
an option grant shall be equal to or greater than the closing price of the Class A Common Stock on the date of grant and, accordingly, will have value only if the market price of the Class A Common Stock increases after that date. The
stock options granted pursuant to both the 1999 Long-Term Incentive Plan and 2009 Long-Term Incentive Plan generally vest at 2% per month during the 11th through 60th month after grant. We did not grant any stock options to executive officers
in 2012.

We have selected these elements because each is considered useful and/or necessary to meet one or more of the
principal objectives of our compensation policy. For instance, base salary and bonus target percentages are set with the goal of attracting employees and adequately compensating and rewarding them on a day-to-day basis for the time spent and the
services they perform, while our equity programs are geared toward providing an incentive and reward for the achievement of long-term business objectives and retaining key talent. We believe that these elements of compensation, when combined, are
effective, and will continue to be effective, in achieving the objectives of our compensation program.

Our compensation
committee reviews our compensation program on an annual basis. In setting compensation levels for a particular executive, our compensation committee takes into consideration the proposed compensation package as a whole and each element individually,
but does not apply any specific formula in doing so. While the importance of one compensation element to another may vary among executive officers, our compensation committee attempts to correlate the overall compensation package to each executive
officers past and expected future contributions to our business. In 2012, the executive bonus program placed an emphasis on successfully completing the acquisition of Vivendi Entertainment, integrating that business into our existing business
structure, and achieving specified Company operating results during the 2012 fiscal year. We currently do not have any employment or severance agreements with our executive officers.

Consideration of Say-on-Pay Vote Results

At the 2011 annual meeting of shareholders, our shareholders approved, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Our compensation committee reviewed and considered the final vote results for that resolution, and we have not made any changes to our executive compensation policies or decisions as a result of the vote.
Further, at the 2011 annual meeting of shareholders, an overwhelming number of our shareholders voted, on an advisory basis, for holding an advisory vote to approve named executive officer compensation every three years. That was also our board of
directors recommendation on that matter for the 2011 annual meeting. Accordingly, our board of directors has determined that Gaiam will hold the next advisory vote to approve named executive officer compensation in 2014.

Risk Assessments

With respect to risk related to compensation matters, our compensation committee considers, in establishing and reviewing our executive compensation program, whether the program encourages unnecessary or
excessive risk taking and has concluded that it does not. Our executive officers base salaries are fixed in amount and thus do not encourage risk-taking. Bonuses are capped and are tied to overall business unit and corporate performance. A
portion of compensation provided to the executive officers has in the past been in the form of stock options that are important to help further align executives interests with those of our shareholders. Our compensation committee believes that
these awards do not encourage unnecessary or excessive risk-taking, as the value of the stock options fluctuate dollar for dollar with our stock price and do not represent significant downward/upward risk and reward. We did not grant any stock
options to our executive officers in 2012.

|(3) | The Salary and Bonus columns represent amounts when earned and, because of the timing of payments, do not represent amounts paid during each presented
year. The annual salary for each named executive officer as of December 31, 2012 was $60,000 for Mr. Rysavy; $412,000 for each of Ms. Powers and Mr. Sondheim; $295,000 for Mr. Jackson; and $250,000 for Mr. Thomas.
Commencing in 2011, Mr. Rysavy voluntarily requested that his salary rate be reduced to reflect the decrease in his time devoted to our business. Bonuses are generally given at the discretion of our board of directors compensation
committee and are typically paid between February and June of the year following the year earned. Mr. Rysavy has requested that he not be given any bonuses. For Mr. Sondheim, $42,500 and $85,000 of his yearly bonuses were guaranteed
and paid quarterly during 2011 and 2010, respectively.

|(4) | The amounts in the Option Awards column reflect the grant date fair value of awards given to Ms. Powers during 2011 and to Mr. Jackson and
Mr. Thomas during 2010, and the incremental fair value of options modified in 2012 for Ms. Powers, Mr. Jackson and Mr. Thomas, and in 2010 for Ms. Powers, the fair values of which were computed in accordance with FASB ASC
Topic 718. Mr. Rysavy has requested that he not be granted any options. In November 2010, the expiration date for certain options awards granted to Ms. Powers was extended to March 31, 2012. In March 2012, for all employee grants that
were scheduled to expire within the next two years, we extended the expiration dates by two years. As a result of these grant modifications, the expiration dates for Ms. Powers grant that was to expire on March 31, 2012, as well as
certain option awards granted to Mr. Jackson and Mr. Thomas, were each extended by two years. These awards were issued pursuant to our 2009 and 1999 Long-Term Incentive Plans. Assumptions used in the calculation of the amounts are included
in footnote 11 to our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 18, 2013.

|(5) | All Other Compensation includes for 2012 the cash payout of accrued paid time off balances as of December 31, 2012 for Ms. Powers, Mr. Jackson and
Mr. Thomas, and also for each of Ms. Powers and Mr. Sondheim includes $1,500 of 401(k) company match given during each of the years presented in the Summary Compensation Table.

|(1) | This table reflects the status of option awards granted pursuant to our 2009 and 1999 Long-Term Incentive Plans as of December 31, 2012. The options vest and
become exercisable at 2% per month over the 50 months beginning in the 11th month after date of grant. The exercise price of the options is equal to or greater than the closing stock market price of our Class A Common Stock on the date of
grant. Options granted prior to 2011 expire seven years from date of grant and options granted during 2011 and thereafter expire ten years from the date of grant. For further information, see footnote 11 to our audited financial statements for the
year ended December 31, 2012, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 18, 2013.

|(2) | During 2009, certain option awards originally granted prior to 2009 for Messrs. Sondheim, Jackson and Thomas were repriced to $5.00 per share.

|(3) | In March 2012, for all employee grants that were scheduled to expire within the next two years, we extended the expiration dates by two years. As a result of these
grant modifications, the option expiration date of option awards granted (a) to Ms. Powers that were scheduled to expire on March 31, 2012, (b) to Mr. Jackson that were scheduled to expire on June 26, 2013 and
September 14, 2013, and (c) to Mr. Thomas that was scheduled to expire on December 13, 2013, were each extended by two years.

OPTION EXERCISES AND STOCK VESTED TABLE

No options were exercised by our
executive officers named above in the Summary Compensation Table during the year ended December 31, 2012.

GENERALLY AVAILABLE BENEFIT
PROGRAMS.

We maintain a tax-qualified 401(k) Plan, which provides for broad-based employee participation. Our
executive officers are eligible to participate in the 401(k) Plan on the same basis as other employees. On April 1, 2007, we started making matching contributions to the 401(k) Plan. As of that date, under the 401(k) Plan, all of
our employees are eligible to receive matching contributions from us, and this matching contribution equals $0.50 for each dollar contributed by an employee up to a maximum annual matching benefit of $1,500 per person. The matching contribution is
calculated and paid on a payroll-by-payroll basis subject to applicable Federal limits. We do not provide defined benefit pension plans or defined contribution retirement plans to our executives or other employees other than our 401(k) Plan
described herein.

In 2012, our executive officers were eligible to receive the same health care coverage that is generally
available to other of our employees. We also offered a number of other benefits to our named executive officers pursuant to benefit programs that provide for broad-based employee participation. These benefits programs included medical, dental and
vision insurance, long-term and short-term disability insurance, life and accidental death and dismemberment insurance, health and dependent care flexible spending accounts, business travel insurance, wellness programs (including chiropractic,
massage therapy, acupuncture, and fitness classes), relocation/expatriate programs and services, educational assistance, and certain other benefits.

##### Table of Contents

Our compensation committee believes that our 401(k) Plan and the other generally
available benefit programs allow us to remain competitive for employee talent, and that the availability of the benefit programs generally enhances employee productivity and loyalty to us. The main objectives of our benefits programs are to give our
employees access to quality healthcare, financial protection from unforeseen events, assistance in achieving retirement financial goals, and enhanced health and productivity, in full compliance with applicable legal requirements. Typically, these
generally available benefits do not specifically factor into decisions regarding an individual executive officers total compensation or Long-Term Incentive Plan award package.

STOCK OPTION GRANT TIMING PRACTICES

During 2012, our compensation
committee and our board consistently applied the following guidelines for stock option grant timing practices.



| |  |  | New Employees: stock option grants to new hires are effective on the first day of the new employees employment with us or upon
approval by our compensation committee, and the exercise price for the options is set at the closing price of our Class A Common Stock on that date.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Existing Employees: stock option grants to existing employees are effective on the date that our compensation committee approves the
grant, and the exercise price for the options is set at or above the closing price of our Class A Common Stock on that date.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

COMPENSATION OF MR. RYSAVY

During 2011 and 2012, the board approved
annual base salary for Mr. Rysavy was $400,000 and $412,000, respectively; however, he voluntarily requested that his salary rate be reduced to reflect the decrease in his time devoted to our business. As a result, Mr. Rysavy received an
aggregate salary of $47,585 during 2011 and $60,000 during 2012. Mr. Rysavy served as our Chief Executive Officer until March 2009. He continues to serves as our Chairman and is our largest shareholder. At Mr. Rysavys request,
he has not been given any bonuses in recent years or awarded any stock options in the last ten years. Our compensation committee and our board of directors strongly believe that Mr. Rysavys salary and overall compensation level are modest
given the importance of Mr. Rysavy to our future, his previous experience and business accomplishments and the market value of his skill set as an executive.

EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS AND POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OR CHANGE-IN-CONTROL

We do not have employment agreements with any of our executive officers, and we do not have change of control agreements with any of our executive officers. Our directors, officers, and managers are
required to sign a confidentiality agreement and, upon receiving a stock option grant, a two-year non-compete agreement commencing with the date they leave our company.

ACCOUNTING AND TAX CONSIDERATIONS

In designing our compensation programs,
we take into consideration the accounting and tax effect that each element will or may have on us and the executive officers and other employees as a group. We aim to keep the expense related to our compensation programs as a whole within certain
affordability levels. When determining how to apportion between differing elements of compensation, our goal is to meet our objectives while maintaining relative cost neutrality. For instance, if we increase benefits under one program resulting in
higher compensation expense, we may seek to decrease costs under another program in order to avoid a compensation expense that is above the level then deemed affordable under existing circumstances. We recognize a charge to earnings for accounting
purposes equally from the grant date until the end of the vesting period.

We believe we have structured our compensation
program to comply with Internal Revenue Code Sections 162(m) and 409A. Under Section 162(m), a limitation is placed on tax deductions of any publicly-held corporation for individual compensation to certain executives of such corporation
exceeding $1,000,000 in any taxable year, unless the compensation is performance-based. If an executive is entitled to nonqualified deferred compensation benefits that are subject to Section 409A, and such benefits do not comply with
Section 409A, then the benefits are taxable in the first year they are not subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture. In such case, the service provider is subject to regular federal income tax, interest and an additional federal income tax
of 20% of the benefit includible in income. We do not believe we have individuals with non-performance based compensation paid in excess of the Section 162(m) tax deduction limit.

services, and such action is then communicated to the full audit committee at the next audit committee meeting. To avoid certain potential conflicts of interest, the law prohibits a publicly traded company from obtaining certain non-audit services
from its auditing firm. If we need such services, we obtain them from other service providers.
