 -7- 

 4.6 by virtue of the execution and delivery by the Pledgor of this Agreement, and the delivery by the
Pledgor to the Term Loan Collateral Agent, as agent for, among others, the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, or the Collateral Agent, of the stock certificates or other certificates or documents representing or evidencing the Pledged

it with respect to Pledged Securities registered in the name of such Pledgor. 
 SECTION 6 
 Voting Rights; Dividends and Interest, Etc. 
 6.1 Unless and until a Specified Default has occurred and is continuing, each Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and/or other consensual rights and powers inuring to an owner of the Pledged Securities or any part
thereof to the extent, and only to the extent, that such rights are exercised for any purpose consistent with, and not otherwise in violation of, the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and
Applicable Law; provided, however, that such Pledgor will not be entitled to exercise any such 
  

 -8- 

 right if the result thereof could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the rights inuring to a
holder of the Pledged Securities or the rights and remedies of any of the Secured Parties under this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or the ability of the Secured Parties to exercise the same. 
 6.2 Unless and until a Specified Default has occurred and is continuing, each Pledgor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all cash dividends
or other cash distributions paid on the Pledged Collateral (provided, however, that, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Cash Dominion Event, such Pledgor shall cause all such cash dividends or other cash distributions
to be deposited into the Concentration Account in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.18 of the Credit Agreement) to the extent, and only to the extent, that such cash dividends or other cash distributions are permitted by, and
otherwise paid in accordance with, the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and Applicable Law. All noncash dividends, and all dividends paid or payable in cash or otherwise in connection with a
partial or total liquidation or dissolution, return of capital, capital surplus or paid-in surplus, and all other distributions (other than dividends and distributions referred to in the preceding sentence) made on or in respect of the Pledged
Collateral, whether paid or payable in cash or otherwise, whether resulting from a subdivision, combination or reclassification of the outstanding capital stock or membership interests of the issuer of any Pledged Securities or received in exchange
for Pledged Securities or any part thereof, or in redemption thereof, or as a result of any merger, amalgamation, arrangement, consolidation, acquisition or other exchange of assets to which such issuer may be a party or otherwise, shall be and
become part of the Pledged Collateral, and, if received by such Pledgor, to the extent required to be paid to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, shall not be commingled by such Pledgor
with any of its other funds or property but shall be held separate and apart therefrom, shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and shall be forthwith delivered to the Collateral Agent in the same form as so received (with any
necessary endorsement). 
 6.3 After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Specified Default, all rights of any Pledgor to dividends
or other cash distributions that such Pledgor is authorized to receive pursuant to Section 6.2 above shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and
authority to receive and retain such dividends or other cash distributions. All dividends or other cash distributions received by any Pledgor contrary to the provisions of this Section 6.3 shall be held in trust for the benefit of the
Collateral Agent, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Pledgor and shall be forthwith delivered to the Concentration Account in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.18 of the Credit Agreement in the same form as so

have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise such voting and consensual rights and powers; provided that the Collateral Agent shall have the right from time to time following and during the continuance of a Specified Default to
permit any Pledgor to exercise such rights. After all Events of Default have been cured or waived in writing by the Collateral Agent, without any further action by the Collateral Agent, each Pledgor will have the right to exercise the voting and
consensual rights and powers that it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to the terms of Section 6.1. 
 SECTION 7 
 Remedies upon Default 
 After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, it is agreed that the Collateral Agent shall have in any jurisdiction in which
enforcement hereof is sought, in addition to all other rights and remedies, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC or other Applicable Law. The rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent shall include, without limitation, the
right to take any or all of the following actions at the same or different times: 
 7.1 The Collateral Agent may sell or otherwise dispose of
all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, at public or private sale or at any broker’s board or on any securities exchange, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the Collateral Agent shall deem appropriate. Each purchaser at any such
sale shall hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of any Pledgor. 
 7.2 If required by Applicable Law,
the Collateral Agent shall give the Pledgors at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice, by authenticated record, of the Collateral Agent’s intention to make any sale of the Pledged Collateral. Such notice, (i) in the case of a
public sale, shall state the date, time and place for such sale, (ii) in the case of a sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, shall state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the
Pledged Collateral, or portion thereof, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange, and (iii) in the case of a private sale, shall state the date after which any private sale or other disposition of the Pledged Collateral shall be
made. Each Pledgor agrees that such written notice shall satisfy all requirements for notice to the Pledgor which are imposed under the UCC with respect to the exercise of the Collateral Agent’s rights and remedies upon default. The Collateral
Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale or other disposition of any Pledged Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale or 
  

 -10- 

 other disposition of such Pledged Collateral shall have been given. The Collateral Agent may, without notice or
publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which the same was
so adjourned. 
 7.3 Any public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the
Collateral Agent may fix and state in the notice of such sale. 
 7.4 At any public (or, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, private)
sale made pursuant to this Section 7, the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may bid for or purchase, free (to the extent permitted by Applicable Law) from any right of redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on the part of any
Pledgor, the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof by using any claim then due and payable to the Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party from any Pledgor on account of the Secured
Obligations as a credit against the purchase price, and the Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability to such Pledgor therefor.

 7.5 For purposes hereof, a written agreement to purchase the Pledged Collateral or any portion thereof which is entered into in good faith
shall be treated as a sale thereof. The Collateral Agent shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant to such agreement and no Pledgor shall be entitled to the return of the Pledged Collateral or any portion thereof subject thereto, notwithstanding
the fact that after the Collateral Agent shall have entered into such an agreement all Events of Default shall have been remedied and/or the Secured Obligations paid in full. 
 7.6 As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it and subject to Applicable Law, the Collateral Agent may proceed by a suit
or suits at law or in equity to foreclose upon the Pledged Collateral and to sell the Pledged Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts having competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a
court-appointed receiver. 
 7.7 Each Pledgor recognizes that (a) the Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of all or a
part of the Pledged Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, 15 U.S.C. §77, (as amended and in effect, the “Securities Act”) or the Securities laws of various states (the
“Blue Sky Laws”), but may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire the Pledged Collateral for their own account, for
investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof, (b) that private sales so made may be at prices and upon other terms less favorable to the seller than if the Pledged Collateral were sold at public sales, (c) that
neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party has any obligation to delay sale of any of the Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the Pledged Collateral to be registered for public sale under the Securities Act or
the Blue Sky Laws, and (d) that private sales made under the foregoing circumstances shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. 
  

 -11- 

 7.8 To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Pledgor hereby waives all rights of redemption, stay,
valuation and appraisal which such Pledgor now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. In dealing with or disposing of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, neither the
Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party shall be required to give priority or preference to any item of Pledged Collateral or otherwise to marshal assets or to take possession or sell any Pledged Collateral with judicial process. 
 SECTION 8  
 Application
of Proceeds of Sale 
 After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and acceleration of the Secured Obligations
pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall apply the proceeds of any collection or sale of the Pledged Collateral, as well as any Pledged Collateral consisting of cash, in accordance with Section 7.03 of the
Credit Agreement. 
 The Collateral Agent shall have absolute discretion as to the time of application of any such proceeds, moneys or
balances in accordance with this Agreement. Upon any sale or other disposition of the Pledged Collateral by the Collateral Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the purchase
money by the Collateral Agent or of the officer making the sale or other disposition shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Pledged Collateral so sold or otherwise disposed of and such purchaser or purchasers shall not
be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Collateral Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof. 
 SECTION 9  
 Indemnification 
 Without limiting any of its other indemnification obligations under the Credit Agreement, the Security Agreement or the other Loan Documents, each
Pledgor agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Collateral Agent, each other Secured Party, any underwriter, and their respective officers, directors, Affiliates and controlling Persons from and against all loss, liability, expenses, costs
of counsel (including the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel to the Collateral Agent), and claims (including the reasonable costs of investigation) that any of them may incur insofar as such loss, liability, expense or claim arises out
of, or is based upon, any alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any prospectus (or any amendment 
  

 -12- 

 or supplement thereto) or in any notification or offering circular, or arises out of or is based upon any alleged
omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements in any thereof not misleading, except insofar as the same may have been caused by any untrue statement or omission based upon information furnished
in writing to such Pledgor or the issuer of such Pledged Securities by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party expressly for use therein. The Pledgors will bear all costs and expenses of carrying out its obligations under this
Section 9. Each Pledgor acknowledges that there is no adequate remedy at law for failure by it to comply with the provisions of this Section 9 and that such failure would not be adequately compensable in damages, and therefore agrees that
its agreements contained in this Section 9 may be specifically enforced. 
 SECTION 10  
 Further Assurances 
 Each Pledgor agrees to
do such further acts and things, and to execute and deliver such additional conveyances, assignments, agreements and instruments, as the Collateral Agent may at any time reasonably request in connection with the administration and enforcement of
this Agreement or with respect to the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof or in order to better assure and confirm the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder. 
 SECTION 11  
 Intent 
 This Agreement is being executed and delivered by the Pledgors for the purpose of confirming the grant of the security interest of the Collateral Agent
in the Pledged Collateral. It is intended that the security interest granted pursuant to this Agreement is granted as a supplement to, and not in limitation of, the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent, for its own benefit and the

 Exhibit 10.20 
 EXECUTION COPY 
 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
 THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of April 13, 2006, by and between Burlington Coat Factory Warehouse
Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Mark Nesci (“Executive”). 
 WHEREAS, the Company
desires to employ Executive during the Employment Period, and Executive is willing to accept employment with the Company, on the terms and conditions set forth herein; and 
 WHEREAS, the agreements of Executive in Sections 5, 6 and 7 are a material inducement to enter into this Agreement. 
 In consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 1. Definitions. In this Agreement: 
 “Base Salary” has the meaning given to that term in Section 3(a). 
 “Board” means the Board of Directors of the Company. 
 “Cause” means Executive (i) is convicted of a felony or other crime involving dishonesty towards the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or material misuse of property of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries; (ii) engages in willful misconduct or fraud with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their customers or suppliers or an intentional act of dishonesty or disloyalty in the course of Executive’s
employment; (iii) refuses to perform Executive’s material obligations under this Agreement (except in connection with a Disability) as reasonably directed by the Board or the Company’s chief executive officer, which failure is not
cured within 15 days after written notice thereof to Executive; (iv) misappropriates one or more of the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries material assets or business opportunities; or (v) breaches Sections 5, 6
or 7 hereof which breach, if capable of being cured, is not cured within 10 days of written notice thereof has been delivered to Executive. The Company may allow Executive an extension of time to cure a breach if the Board, in its sole
discretion, determines that such extension is appropriate under the circumstances. 
 “Company” has the meaning set forth in
the preamble above; provided, that references in Sections 5, 6 and 7 hereof to the Company and its Subsidiaries include all predecessor entities which conducted the business that is the subject of the Merger. 

“Confidential Information” has the meaning given to that term in Section 5(a). 
 “Court” has the meaning given to that term in Section 7(b). 
 “Disability” means Executive’s inability to perform the essential duties, responsibilities and functions of Executive’s
position with the Company and its Subsidiaries for a continuous period of 180 days as a result of any mental or physical disability or incapacity, as 

 
determined under the definition of disability in the Company’s long-term disability plan so as to qualify Executive for benefits under the terms of that
plan or as determined by an independent physician to the extent no such plan is then in effect. Executive shall cooperate in all respects with the Company if a question arises as to whether Executive has become disabled (including, without
limitation, submitting to an examination by a medical doctor or other health care specialists selected by the Company and authorizing such medical doctor or such other health care specialist to discuss Executive’s condition with the Company).

 “Employment Period” means the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the Expiration Date or such earlier date
as contemplated in the proviso to Section 4(a). 
 “Expiration Date” means the third anniversary of the date
hereof; provided, that if a written notice is not given by the Company or Executive at least ninety (90) days prior to such anniversary (or any subsequent anniversary if this Agreement is extended) stating that such party is electing not
to extend the Employment Period, then the Expiration Date will automatically be extended to the next anniversary of the date hereof. 
 “Expiration Year” means the calendar year in which the Employment Period expires. 
 “Good Reason”
means the occurrence of any of the following events without the written consent of Executive: (i) a material diminution of Executive’s duties or the assignment to Executive of duties that are inconsistent in any substantial respect with
the position, authority or responsibilities associated with Executive’s position as set forth pursuant to Section 2(b), other than any such authorities, duties or responsibilities assigned at any time which are by their nature, or
which are identified at the time of assignment, as being temporary or short-term; (ii) the Company’s requiring Executive to be based at a location which is fifty (50) or more miles from Executive’s principal office location on
the date hereof; or (iii) a material breach by the Company of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, its obligations pursuant to Section 3) (which such breach goes uncured after notice and a

be payable by the Company in regular installments in accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices (in effect from time to time). Executive’s Base Salary will be subject to annual review and increase or decrease (but not below
the Base Salary in effect on the date of this Agreement) by the Board during the Employment Period. 
 (b) Executive shall be
entitled to participate in the Company’s Senior Management Bonus Plan approved by the Board or a committee thereof, as in effect from time to time. In addition to the preceding, if Executive is a merchandise buyer, Executive’s bonus shall

 (c) If Executive remains continuously employed by the Company through the first
anniversary of the Merger, then Executive shall be entitled to receive a retention bonus equal to $6,500,000 from the Company; provided that such Executive shall also be entitled to such bonus contemplated hereby in the event that
Executive’s employment is terminated (i) due to Executive’s death or Disability or (ii) by the Company without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason, in each case prior to or on such anniversary date. 
 (d) The Board, or a committee or appointee thereof, during the term of this Agreement, shall review annually, or at more frequent

not be reduced pursuant to any such review or otherwise. 
 (e) Executive shall be entitled to four (4) weeks of paid
vacation each calendar year in accordance with the Company’s policies, which if not taken in any year may not be carried forward to any subsequent calendar year and no compensation shall be payable in lieu thereof. Such vacation will accrue as

compensation, bonus, incentive, award, deferred compensation, pension, retirement, stock award, stock option or other benefit, plan or arrangement of the Company (including, without limitation, any plan sponsored by the entity owning or controlling
the Company, or any affiliate of such entity) now existing or hereafter adopted; provided, however, the Company may restrict or exclude Executive’s participation in any such plan, or the benefits thereunder, on such terms and
conditions as the Company shall in its sole discretion determine, if at any time Executive shall be working fewer than five days a week or on other part-time basis during regular business days. Executive also shall be entitled to hospital, health,
disability, medical and life insurance, and any other benefits enjoyed, from time to time, by other salaried employees of the Company of comparable level, all upon terms as favorable as those enjoyed by other salaried employees of comparable level
of the Company. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3(h) to the contrary, if the Company adopts any change 

  

 4 

 
in the benefits provided for other salaried employees of the Company of comparable level, and such policy is uniformly applied to all such employees of the
Company (and any successor or acquirer of the Company, if any), then no such change shall be deemed a breach by the Company of this Section 3(h). 
 (i) Executive will be indemnified and defended for acts performed (or omissions made) in Executive’s capacity as an officer or
director of the Company to the fullest extent specified in the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws and as permitted under Delaware law. 
 4. Termination and Payment Terms. 
 (a) The Employment Period shall end on the
Expiration Date; provided, that (i) the Employment Period shall terminate prior to such date immediately upon Executive’s resignation, death or Disability and (ii) the Employment Period may be terminated by resolution of the
Board, with or without Cause at any time prior to such date. Except as otherwise provided herein, any termination of the Employment Period by the Company shall be effective as specified in a written notice from the Company to Executive. 

(b) If the Employment Period is terminated prior to the Expiration Date: 
 (i) (A) by resolution of the Board (other than for Cause) or by Executive resigning for Good Reason or (B) if the Employment Period
expires on the Expiration Date, Executive shall be entitled to receive (1) all previously earned and accrued but unpaid Base Salary and vacation and unpaid business expenses up to the date of such termination or the Expiration Date, as
applicable, (2) any bonus (if any) earned by Executive for the fiscal year prior to the Termination Year or the Expiration Year, as applicable, but then unpaid, (3) the pro rata portion of Executive’s target bonus during the
Termination Year or the Expiration Year, as applicable, to the extent targets thereunder are achieved for such year, after such termination or expiration, pro rated based on the number of days of the Termination Year or the Expiration Year, as
applicable, prior to the date of termination or the Expiration Date, as applicable, which payment shall be made when the bonus payments for such Termination Year or the Expiration Year, as applicable, are otherwise due; (4) severance pay in the
full amount of Base Salary at the time of termination or expiration from the date of termination or the Expiration Date, as applicable, through the period ending on the second anniversary of the date of termination or the Expiration Date, as
applicable; and (5) full continuation of Executive’s hospital, health, disability, medical and life insurance benefits during the two year severance period (to the extent any of those benefits cannot be provided by Company during the one
year severance period, the Company will provide Executive with a sum of money calculated to permit Executive to obtain the same benefits individually, grossed up for tax purposes so that Executive remains whole); or 
 (ii) for any other reason, including as a result of Executive’s death, Disability, voluntary resignation for other than Good Reason
or by resolution of the Board for Cause, Executive’s sole entitlement shall be to receive all previously earned and accrued but unpaid Base Salary, vacation and unpaid business expenses up to the date of such termination or expiration and
Executive shall not be entitled to any further Base Salary, bonus payments or 

  

 5 

 
benefits for that year or any future year, except as required by law, or to any other severance compensation of any kind. 
 (c) Executive agrees that: (i) Executive shall be entitled to the payments and services provided for in Sections 4(b)(i)(3),
4(b)(i)(4) and 4(b)(i)(5), if any, if and only if Executive has executed and delivered the Release attached as Exhibit A and seven (7) days have elapsed since such execution without any revocation thereof by Executive
and Executive has not breached as of the date of termination of the Employment Period the provisions of Sections 5, 6 and 7 hereof and does not breach such sections or such covenants at any time during the period for which such
payments or services are to be made; and (ii) the Company’s obligation to make such payments and services will terminate upon the occurrence of any such breach during such period. 
 (d) Except as stated above, any payments pursuant to Section 4(b) shall be paid by the Company in regular installments in
accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices, and following such payments the Company shall have no further obligation to Executive pursuant to this Section 4 except as provided by law. All amounts payable to Executive as
compensation hereunder shall be subject to all customary withholding, payroll and other taxes. The Company shall be entitled to deduct or withhold from any amounts payable to Executive any federal, state, local or foreign withholding taxes, excise
tax, or employment taxes imposed with respect to Executive’s compensation or other payments or Executive’s ownership interest in the Company (including, without limitation, wages, bonuses, dividends, the receipt or exercise of equity
options and/or the receipt or vesting of restricted equity). 
 (e) Executive hereby agrees that except as expressly provided
herein, no severance compensation of any kind, nature or amount shall be payable to Executive and except as expressly provided herein, Executive hereby irrevocably waives any claim for severance compensation. 
 (f) Except as provided in Sections 4(b)(i) and 4(b)(ii) above, all of Executive’s rights pursuant to Sections
3(e), 3(f), 3(g), and 3(h) shall cease upon the termination of the Employment Period. 
 5. Confidential
Information. 
 (a) Executive acknowledges and agrees that the information, observations and data (including trade
secrets) obtained by Executive while employed by the Company and its Subsidiaries concerning the business or affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries and the nature and structure of the Merger are the confidential information
(“Confidential Information”), and the property, of the Company and/or its Subsidiaries. Without limiting the foregoing, the term “Confidential Information” shall be interpreted as broadly as possible to include all
observations, data and other information of any sort that are (i) related to any past, current or potential business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective predecessors, and any other business related to any of the
foregoing, and (ii) not generally known to and available for use by those within the line of business or industry of the Company or by the public (except to the extent such information has become generally known to and available for use by the
public as a direct or indirect result of Executive’s acts or omissions) 

  

 6 

 
including all (A) Work Product (as defined below); (B) information concerning development, acquisition or investment opportunities in or reasonably
related to the business or industry of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of which Executive is aware or becomes aware during the term of his employment; (C) information identifying or otherwise concerning any current, former or prospective
suppliers, distributors, contractors, agents or customers of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (D) development, transition, integration and transformation plans, methodologies, processes and methods of doing business; (E) strategic,
marketing, promotional and financial information (including all financial statements), business and expansion plans, including plans and information regarding planned, projected and/or potential sales, pricing, discount and cost information;
(F) information identifying or otherwise concerning employees, independent contractors and consultants; (G) information on new and existing programs and services, prices, terms, and related information; (H) the terms of this
Agreement; (I) all information marked, or otherwise designated, as confidential by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or which Executive should reasonably know is confidential or proprietary information of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries; (J) all information or materials similar or related to any of the foregoing, in whatever form or medium, whether now existing or arising hereafter (and regardless of whether merely stored in the mind of Executive or employees or
consultants of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or embodied in a tangible form or medium); and (L) all tangible embodiments of any of the foregoing. 
 (b) Therefore, Executive agrees that, except as required by law or court order, including, without limitation, depositions,
interrogatories, court testimony, and the like (and in such case provided that Executive must give the Company and/or its Subsidiaries, as applicable, prompt written notice of any such legal requirement, disclose no more information than is so
required and seek, at the Company’s sole cost and expense, confidential treatment where available and cooperate fully with all efforts by the Company and/or its Subsidiaries to obtain a protective order or similar confidentiality treatment for
such information), Executive shall not disclose to any unauthorized person or entity or use for Executive’s own purposes any Confidential Information without the prior written consent of the Board, unless and to the extent that the Confidential
Information becomes generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a direct or indirect result of Executive’s acts or omissions. Executive shall deliver to the Company at the termination or expiration of the Employment
Period, or at any other time the Company may request, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports, computer tapes, printouts and software and other documents and data (and copies thereof) embodying or relating to the Confidential Information
(including any Work Product (as defined below)) or the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries which Executive may then possess or have under Executive’s control and if, at any time thereafter, any such materials are brought to
Executive’s attention or Executive discovers them in his possession or control, Executive shall deliver such materials to the Company immediately upon such notice or discovery. 
 6. Intellectual Property, Inventions and Patents. Executive acknowledges and agrees that all discoveries, concepts, ideas, inventions,
innovations, improvements, developments, methods, specifications, designs, analyses, drawings, reports, patents and patent applications, processes, programs, systems, software, firmware, materials, plans, sketches, models, know-how, devices,
developments, data, databases, technology, trade secrets, works of authorship, copyrightable works and mask works (whether or not including any confidential information) and all registrations or applications related thereto, all other intellectual
property or 

  

 7 

 
proprietary information and all similar or related information (whether or not patentable or copyrightable and whether or not reduced to tangible form or
practice) which relate to the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ actual or anticipated business, research and development or existing or future products or services and which are conceived, developed or made by Executive (whether alone
or jointly with others) while employed by the Company or its predecessors and its Subsidiaries (“Work Product”) shall be deemed to be “work made for hire” (as defined in the Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C.A. § 101 et
seq., as amended) and owned exclusively by the Company. To the extent that any Work Product is not deemed to be “work made for hire” under applicable law, and all right, title and interest in and to such Work Product have not automatically
vested in the Company, Executive hereby (A) irrevocably assigns, transfers and conveys, and shall assign transfer and convey, to the full extent permitted by applicable law, all right, title and interest in and to the Work Product on a
worldwide basis to the Company (or such other person or entity as the Company shall designate), without further consideration, and (B) waives all moral rights in or to all Work Product, and to the extent such rights may not be waived, agrees
not to assert such rights against the Company or its respective licensees, successors or assigns. Executive shall, at the Company’s expense, execute all documents and perform all actions reasonably requested by the Board (whether during or
after the Employment Period) to establish, confirm, evidence, effectuate, maintain, protect, enforce, perfect, record, patent or register any of the Company’s rights hereunder (including, without limitation, assignments, consents, powers of
attorney and other instruments). 
 7. Non-Compete, Non-Solicitation. 
 (a) In further consideration of the compensation to be paid to Executive hereunder, Executive acknowledges and agrees that during the
course of Executive’s employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries Executive shall become familiar, and during Executive’s employment with the predecessors of the Company and its Subsidiaries, Executive has become familiar, with the
Company’s trade secrets and with other Confidential Information and that Executive’s services have been and shall be of special, unique and extraordinary value to the Company and its Subsidiaries, and therefore, Executive agrees that,
during his or her employment with the Company and for a period of two years thereafter (the “Non-Compete Period”; provided, that if Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company with Cause, the Non-Compete Period
shall terminate on the date of such termination), Executive shall not directly or indirectly (whether as an owner, partner, shareholder, agent, officer, director, employee, independent contractor, consultant or otherwise) own any interest in,
operate, invest in, manage, control, participate in, consult with, render services for (alone or in association with any person or entity), in any manner engage in any business activity on behalf of a Competing Business within any geographical area
in which the Company or its Subsidiaries operates or plan to operate. Nothing herein shall prohibit Executive from being a passive owner of not more than 2% of the outstanding stock of any class of a corporation which is publicly traded, so long as
Executive has no active participation in the business of such corporation. For purposes of this paragraph, “Competing Business” means each of the following entities, together with their respective subsidiaries and
affiliates: TJ Maxx, Marshalls, Ross Stores, Stein Mart, Century 21, Forman Mills, Schottenstein Stores and Daffy Dan’s. 
 (b) During the Non-Compete Period, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, and shall ensure that any person or entity controlled by Executive does not, (i) induce 

  

 8 

 
or attempt to induce any employee of the Company or any Subsidiary to leave the employ of the Company or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with the
relationship between the Company or any Subsidiary and any employee thereof, (ii) hire, directly or through another person, any person (whether or not solicited) who was an executive of the Company or any Subsidiary at any time within the one
year period before Executive’s termination from employment, (iii) induce or attempt to induce any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, franchisee or other business relation of the Company or any Subsidiary to cease doing business with
the Company or such Subsidiary, engage in or assist any person or entity in engaging in any Competing Business or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee or business relation and the Company or any
Subsidiary (Executive understands that any person or entity that Executive contacted during the one year period prior to the date of Executive’s termination of employment for the purpose of soliciting sales from such person or entity shall be
regarded as a “potential customer” of the Company and its Subsidiaries as to whom the Company has a protectible proprietary interest) or (iv) make or solicit or encourage others to make or solicit directly or indirectly any defamatory
statement or communication about the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, products, services or activities (it being understood that such restriction shall not prohibit truthful testimony compelled by valid legal
process). 
 8. Enforcement. 
 (a) Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company entered into this Agreement in reliance on the provisions of Sections 5, 6 and 7 and the enforcement of this Agreement is necessary to ensure
the preservation, protection and continuity of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries and other Confidential Information and goodwill of the Company and its Subsidiaries to the extent and for the periods of time expressly agreed to herein.
Executive acknowledges and agrees that he has carefully read this Agreement and has given careful consideration to the restraints imposed upon Executive by this Agreement, and is in full accord as to their necessity for the reasonable and proper
protection of confidential and proprietary information of the Company and its Subsidiaries now existing or to be developed in the future. Executive expressly acknowledges and agrees that each and every restraint imposed by this Agreement is
reasonable with respect to subject matter, time period and geographical area. 
 (b) Notwithstanding any provision to the
contrary herein, the Company or its Subsidiaries may pursue, at its discretion, enforcement of Sections 5, 6 and 7 in any court of competent jurisdiction (each a “Court”). 
 (c) Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable
law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or
any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. More specifically, if any Court determines that any of
the covenants set forth in Sections 5, 6 and 7 are overbroad or unreasonable under applicable law in duration, geographical area or scope, the parties to this Agreement specifically agree and 

  

 9 

 
authorize such Court to rewrite this Agreement to reflect the maximum duration, geographical area and/or scope permitted under applicable law. 
 (d) Because Executive’s services are unique and because Executive has intimate knowledge of and access to Confidential Information
and Work Product, the parties hereto agree that money damages would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of Sections 5, 6 and 7, and any breach of the terms of Sections 5, 6 and 7 would result in
irreparable injury and damage to the Company and its Subsidiaries for which the Company and its Subsidiaries would have no adequate remedy at law. Therefore, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of Sections 5, 6 and 7,
the Company or its successors or assigns, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in their favor at law or in equity, shall be entitled to specific performance and/or immediate injunctive or other equitable relief from a Court in order
to enforce, or prevent any violations of, the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security), without having to prove damages. The terms of this Section 8 shall not prevent the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from
pursuing any other available remedies for any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, including the recovery of damages from Executive. 
 9. Executive’s Representations. Executive hereby represents and warrants to the Company that (i) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Executive do not and shall not conflict with, breach, violate or
cause a default under any contract, agreement, instrument, order, judgment or decree to which Executive is a party or by which he is bound, (ii) Executive is not a party to or bound by any employment agreement, noncompete agreement or
confidentiality agreement with any other person or entity and (iii) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, this Agreement shall be the valid and binding obligation of Executive, enforceable in accordance with its
terms. EXECUTIVE HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES, AGREES AND REPRESENTS THAT EXECUTIVE HAS CONSULTED WITH INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL REGARDING EXECUTIVE’S RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TERMS OF THE RELEASE ATTACHED AS EXHIBIT
A AND THAT EXECUTIVE FULLY UNDERSTANDS THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS CONTAINED HEREIN AND THEREIN. 
 10. Survival.
Section 3(i) and Sections 4 through 20, inclusive, shall survive and continue in full force in accordance with their terms notwithstanding the termination of the Employment Period. 
  

 10 

 11. Notices. Any notice provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be either

 Exhibit A 
 GENERAL RELEASE 
 I, Mark Nesci, in consideration of and subject to the performance by Burlington
Coat Factory Warehouse Corporation, a Delaware corporation (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), of its obligations with respect to the payment of severance pursuant to Sections 4(b)(i)(3), 4(b)(i)(4) and
4(b)(i)(5) of the Employment Agreement, dated as of April 13, 2006 (the “Agreement”) and this General Release (the “General Release”), do hereby release and forever discharge as of the date hereof the
Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates and all present and former directors, officers, agents, representatives, employees, successors and assigns of the Companies and their subsidiaries and affiliates and the Company’s direct and indirect
owners (collectively, the “Released Parties”) to the extent provided below. 
  

	1.	I understand that any payments paid to me under Sections 4(b)(i)(3), 4(b)(i)(4) and 4(b)(i)(5) of the Agreement represent consideration for signing this General
Release and are not salary or wages to which I was already entitled. I understand and agree that I will not receive the payments specified in Sections 4(b)(i)(3), 4(b)(i)(4) and 4(b)(i)(5) of the Agreement unless I execute this
General Release and do not revoke this General Release within the time period permitted hereafter or breach this General Release or Sections 5, 6 or 7 of the Agreement. Such payments will not be considered compensation for
purposes of any employee benefit plan, program, policy or arrangement maintained or hereafter established by the Company or its affiliates. I also acknowledge and represent that I have received all salary, wages and bonuses that I am entitled to
receive (as of the date hereof) by virtue of any employment by the Company. 

  

	2.	 Except as provided in paragraphs 4, 12 and 13 below and except for the provisions of the Agreement which expressly survive the termination of my employment with the

 A-1 

	 	 
Company; or any claim for wrongful discharge, breach of contract, infliction of emotional distress, defamation; or any claim for costs, fees, or other
expenses, including attorneys’ fees incurred in these matters) (all of the foregoing collectively referred to herein as the “Claims”). 

  

	3.	I represent that I have made no assignment or transfer of any right, claim, demand, cause of action, or other matter covered by paragraph 2 above. 

  

	4.	I agree that this General Release does not waive or release any rights or claims that I may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 which arise after the date I
execute this General Release. I acknowledge and agree that my engagement and employment by, and separation from employment with the Company in compliance with the terms of the Agreement shall not serve as the basis for any claim or action
(including, without limitation, any claim under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967). 

  

	5.	In signing this General Release, I acknowledge and intend that it shall be effective as a bar to each and every one of the Claims hereinabove mentioned or implied. I expressly
consent that this General Release shall be given full force and effect according to each and all of its express terms and provisions, including those relating to unknown and unsuspected Claims (notwithstanding any state statute that expressly limits
the effectiveness of a general release of unknown, unsuspected and unanticipated Claims), if any, as well as those relating to any other Claims hereinabove mentioned or implied. I acknowledge and agree that this waiver is an essential and material
term of this General Release and that without such waiver the Company would not have agreed to make any payments pursuant to the terms of Sections 4(b)(i)(3), 4(b)(i)(4) and 4(b)(i)(5) of the Agreement. I further agree that in
the event I should bring a Claim seeking damages against the Company or any other Released Party, or in the event I should seek to recover against the Company or any other Released Party in any Claim brought by a governmental agency on my behalf,
this General Release shall serve as a complete defense to such Claims. I further agree that I am not aware of any pending charge or complaint of the type described in paragraph 2 as of the execution of this General Release. 

 

	6.	I agree that neither this General Release, nor the furnishing of the consideration for this General Release, shall be deemed or construed at any time to be an admission by the
Company, any Released Party or myself of any improper or unlawful conduct. 

  

	7.	I agree that I will forfeit all amounts payable by the Company pursuant to Sections 4(b)(i)(3), 4(b)(i)(4) and 4(b)(i)(5) of the Agreement if I challenge the
validity of this General Release. I also agree that if I violate this General Release by suing the Company or the other Released Parties, I will return all severance payments received by me pursuant to Sections 4(b)(i)(3), 4(b)(i)(4)
and 4(b)(i)(5) of the Agreement. 

  

	8.	I agree that this General Release is confidential and agree not to disclose any information regarding the terms of this General Release, except to my immediate family and any tax,
legal or other advisor I have consulted regarding the meaning or effect hereof or as required by law, and I will instruct each of the foregoing not to disclose the same to anyone.

	9.	Any non-disclosure provision in this General Release does not prohibit or restrict me (or my attorney) from responding to any inquiry about this General Release or its underlying
facts and circumstances by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (NASD), any other self-regulatory organization or governmental entity. 

  

	10.	I agree that, as of the date hereof, I have returned to the Company any and all property, tangible or intangible, relating to its business, which I possessed or had control over at
any time (including, but not limited to, company-provided credit cards, building or office access cards, keys, computer equipment, manuals, files, documents, records, software, customer data base and other data) and that I shall not retain any
copies, compilations, extracts, excerpts, summaries or other notes of any such manuals, files, documents, records, software, customer data base or other data other than such documents as are generally or publicly known; provided, that such
documents are not known as a result of my breach or actions in violation of the Agreement or this General Release. 

  

	11.	Notwithstanding anything in this General Release to the contrary, this General Release shall not relinquish, diminish, or in any way affect any rights or claims arising out of any
breach by the Company or by any Released Party of the Agreement after the date hereof or any other rights or claims I may have against the Company or any Released Party arising after the date hereof. 

  

	12.	Whenever possible, each provision of this General Release shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this General
Release is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this
General Release shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. 

  

	13.	As set forth in Section 10 of the Agreement, Sections 4 through 20 of the Agreement, inclusive, survived the termination of my employment and are
incorporated herein and made part hereof.
