FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements include all statements that do not relate solely to historical or current facts, and can generally be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “believe,” “will,” “expect,” “project,” “estimate,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “continue” or similar expressions. In particular, statements under the heading “Outlook” and other information appearing under “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” include forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements inherently involve many risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in these statements.
Where, in any forward-looking statement, we express an expectation or belief as to future results or events, such expectation or belief is based on the current plans and expectations of our management, expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis. However, there can be no assurance that the expectation or belief will result or will be achieved or accomplished. Risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated include risks associated with our ability to realize the benefits anticipated from the Maidenform Brands, Inc. acquisition, as well as the other risks disclosed in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2012, under the caption “Risk Factors,” as well in the “Investors” section of our corporate website, www.Hanes.com/investors.
All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2012, particularly under the caption “Risk Factors.” We undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, other than as required by law.

(1)
Basis of Presentation
These statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and, in accordance with those rules and regulations, do not include all information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Management believes that the disclosures made are adequate for a fair statement of the results of operations, financial condition and cash flows of Hanesbrands Inc., a Maryland corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Hanesbrands”). In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, which consist only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to state fairly the results of operations, financial condition and cash flows for the interim periods presented herein. The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results may vary from these estimates.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year.
In May 2012, the Company sold its European imagewear business and completed the discontinuation of its private-label and Outer Banks domestic imagewear operations which served wholesalers that sell to the screen-print industry. As a result of these actions, the prior-year disclosures reflect these operations as discontinued operations.
(2)
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Presentation of Comprehensive Income
In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued a final rule related to the reporting of amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income that requires entities to report, either on their income statement or in a footnote to their financial statements, the effects on earnings from items that are reclassified out of other comprehensive income. The new accounting rules were effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2013. The adoption of the new accounting rules did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Disclosures About Offsetting Assets and Liabilities
In December 2011, the FASB issued new accounting rules related to new disclosure requirements regarding the nature of an entity’s rights of setoff and related arrangements associated with its financial instruments and derivative instruments. The new rules are effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2014 with retrospective application required. The Company does not expect the adoption of the new accounting rules to have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) was computed by dividing net income by the number of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted EPS was calculated to give effect to all potentially dilutive shares of common stock using the treasury stock method. The reconciliation of basic to diluted weighted average shares outstanding is as follows:

For the quarters ended September 28, 2013 and September 29, 2012, 14 and 0 restricted stock units, respectively, were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation, and for the nine months ended September 28, 2013 and September 29, 2012, 14 and 11 restricted stock units, respectively, were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation because their effect would be anti-dilutive. For the nine months ended September 29, 2012, options to purchase 1 share of common stock was excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation because its effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Cash Flow Hedges
The Company uses forward foreign exchange contracts to reduce the effect of fluctuating foreign currencies on short-term foreign currency-denominated transactions, foreign currency-denominated investments, and other known foreign currency exposures. Gains and losses on these contracts are intended to offset losses and gains on the hedged transaction in an effort to reduce the earnings volatility resulting from fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates.
The Company expects to reclassify into earnings during the next 12 months a net loss from Accumulated other comprehensive loss of approximately $1,247.
The changes in fair value of derivatives excluded from the Company’s effectiveness assessments and the ineffective portion of the changes in the fair value of derivatives used as cash flow hedges are reported in the “Selling, general and administrative expenses” line in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
The effect of cash flow hedge derivative instruments on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Accumulated other comprehensive loss is as follows:

Derivative Contracts Not Designated As Hedges
The Company uses foreign exchange derivative contracts as economic hedges against the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations on anticipated intercompany purchase and lending transactions denominated in foreign currencies. Gains or losses on these contracts largely offset the net remeasurement gains or losses on the related assets and liabilities.

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities
Fair value is an exit price, representing the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. A three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value, is utilized for disclosing the fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs about which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
As of September 28, 2013, the Company held certain financial assets and liabilities related to foreign exchange derivative contracts that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair values of foreign currency derivatives are determined using the cash flows of the foreign exchange contract, discount rates to account for the passage of time and current foreign exchange market data and are categorized as Level 2. The Company’s defined benefit pension plan investments are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
There were no changes during the quarter ended September 28, 2013 to the Company’s valuation techniques used to measure asset and liability fair values on a recurring basis. There were no transfers between the three level categories and there were no Level 3 assets or liabilities measured on a quarterly basis during the quarter ended September 28, 2013. As of and during the quarter and nine months ended September 28, 2013, the Company did not have any non-financial assets or liabilities that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis.
The following tables set forth by level within the fair value hierarchy the Company’s financial assets and liabilities accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, notes receivable and accounts payable approximated fair value as of September 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012. The carrying amount of trade accounts receivable includes allowance for doubtful accounts, chargebacks and other deductions of $14,591 and $14,940 as of September 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012, respectively. The fair value of debt, which is classified as a Level 2 liability, was $1,508,864 and $1,609,114 as of September 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012 and had a carrying value of $1,416,614 and $1,491,336, respectively. The fair values were estimated using quoted market prices as provided in secondary markets which consider the Company’s credit risk and market related conditions. The carrying amounts of the Company’s notes payable, which is classified as a Level 2 liability, approximated fair value as of September 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012, primarily due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Income Taxes
The Company’s effective income tax rate was 17% and 18% for the quarter and nine months ended September 28, 2013, and 8% and 12% for the quarter and nine months ended September 29, 2012, respectively. The higher effective income tax rate for the quarter and nine months ended September 28, 2013 compared to the quarter and nine months ended September 29, 2012 was primarily attributable to a higher proportion of earnings attributed to domestic subsidiaries, which are taxed at rates higher than foreign subsidiaries.
The nine months ended September 28, 2013 included net discrete tax benefits of approximately $20,000, which included an income tax benefit of approximately $6,000 recorded in the first quarter of 2013 related to the retroactive application of the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 that was signed into law in January 2013, approximately $4,000 of tax benefits recorded in the second quarter of 2013 related to the realization of unrecognized tax benefits resulting from the lapsing of statutes of limitations in certain foreign jurisdictions, and approximately $10,000 of tax benefits recorded in the third quarter of 2013 related primarily to the realization of unrecognized tax benefits resulting from the lapsing of domestic and foreign statutes of limitations.
The nine months ended September 29, 2012 included net discrete tax benefits of approximately $13,000, recorded in the third quarter of 2012, which included an income tax benefit of approximately $9,000 related to the realization of unrecognized tax benefits resulting from the expiration of domestic statutes of limitations and an income tax benefit of approximately $4,000 related to an increase in research and development tax credits.

Discontinued Operations
European Imagewear
In May 2012, the Company sold its European imagewear business to Smartwares, B.V. for €15,000 (approximately $13,000, net of fees and other transaction related costs) in cash proceeds, resulting in a pre-tax loss of approximately $33,000. The European imagewear business was previously reported within the International segment.
Domestic Imagewear
In 2012, the Company completed the discontinuation of its private-label and Outer Banks domestic imagewear operations that served wholesalers that sell to the screen-print industry. During 2012, the Company incurred pre-tax charges of approximately $63,000, substantially all noncash, for the write-down of intangibles, inventory markdowns and other related items. The private-label and Outer Banks domestic imagewear operations were previously reported within the Activewear segment.
 
The operating results of these discontinued operations only reflect revenues and expenses that are directly attributable to these businesses and that will be eliminated from ongoing operations. The key components from discontinued operations related to the European and domestic imagewear businesses were as follows:

Business Segment Information
The Company’s operations are managed and reported in four operating segments, each of which is a reportable segment for financial reporting purposes: Innerwear, Activewear, Direct to Consumer and International. In the first quarter of 2013, the Company renamed the Outerwear segment to Activewear to reflect the trend of this category becoming a part of consumers’ active lifestyles and more aptly describe the competitive space of this business. These segments are organized principally by product category, geographic location and distribution channel. Each segment has its own management that is responsible for the operations of the segment’s businesses, but the segments share a common supply chain and media and marketing platforms.
The types of products and services from which each reportable segment derives its revenues are as follows:
Innerwear sells basic branded products that are replenishment in nature under the product categories of men’s underwear, kids’ underwear, socks and intimates, which includes bras, panties, hosiery and shapewear.
Activewear sells basic branded products that are primarily seasonal in nature under the product categories of branded printwear and retail activewear, as well as licensed logo apparel in collegiate bookstores and other channels.
Direct to Consumer includes the Company’s value-based (“outlet”) stores and Internet operations which sell products from the Company’s portfolio of leading brands. The Company’s Internet operations are supported by its catalogs.

(unaudited)

International primarily relates to the Asia, Latin America, Canada and Australia geographic locations that sell products that span across the Innerwear and Activewear reportable segments. 
The Company evaluates the operating performance of its segments based upon segment operating profit, which is defined as operating profit before general corporate expenses and amortization of intangibles. The accounting policies of the segments are consistent with those described in Note 2 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2012. The Company decided in the first quarter of 2013 to revise the manner in which the Company allocates certain selling, general and administrative expenses. Certain prior-year segment operating profit disclosures have been revised to conform to the current-year presentation.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
This management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, or MD&A, contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Please see “Forward-Looking Statements” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with these statements. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our historical financial statements and related notes thereto and the other disclosures contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes included herein should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 29, 2012, which were included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. The results of operations for the periods reflected herein are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for future periods, and our actual results may differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including but not limited to the risks associated with our ability to realize the benefits anticipated from the Maidenform Brands, Inc. (“Maidenform”) acquisition, as well as the risks included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and those included in the “Risk Factors” section and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2012.
Overview
We are a consumer goods company with a portfolio of leading apparel brands, including Hanes, Champion, Bali, Playtex, Just My Size, L’eggs, barely there, Wonderbra, Gear for Sports, Zorba, Sol y Oro and Rinbros. We design, manufacture, source and sell a broad range of basic apparel such as T-shirts, bras, panties, men’s underwear, kids’ underwear, casualwear, activewear, socks and hosiery.
Our operations are managed and reported in four operating segments, each of which is a reportable segment for financial reporting purposes: Innerwear, Activewear, Direct to Consumer and International. In the first quarter of 2013, we renamed the Outerwear segment to Activewear to reflect the trend of this category becoming a part of consumers’ active lifestyles and more aptly describe the competitive space of this business. These segments are organized principally by product category, geographic location and distribution channel. Each segment has its own management that is responsible for the operations of the segment’s businesses, but the segments share a common supply chain and media and marketing platforms. In the first quarter of 2013, we decided to revise the manner in which we allocate certain selling, general and administrative expenses. Certain prior-year segment operating profit disclosures have been revised to conform to the current-year presentation.
In May 2012, we sold our European imagewear business and completed the discontinuation of our private-label and Outer Banks domestic imagewear operations which served wholesalers that sell to the screen-print industry. As a result of these actions, the prior-year disclosures reflect these operations as discontinued operations.

Highlights from the Third Quarter and Nine Months Ended September 28, 2013
Key financial highlights during the quarter are as follows:
Total net sales in the third quarter of 2013 were $1.20 billion, compared with $1.22 billion in the same quarter of 2012, representing a 2% decrease. Total net sales in the nine months of 2013 were $3.34 billion, compared to $3.37 billion in the same period of 2012.
Operating profit was $177 million in the third quarter of 2013, compared with $157 million in the same quarter of 2012. As a percentage of sales, operating profit was 14.8% in the third quarter of 2013 compared to 12.8% in the same quarter of 2012. All four of our business segments earned double-digit operating margins in the third quarter of 2013. Operating profit was $443 million in the nine months of 2013, compared with $287 million in the same period of 2012. As a percentage of sales, operating profit was 13.3% in the nine months of 2013 compared to 8.5% in the same period of 2012.
Diluted earnings per share was $1.23 in the third quarter of 2013, compared with diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $1.11 in the same quarter of 2012. Diluted earnings per share was $2.93 in the nine months of 2013, compared with diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $1.54 the same period of 2012.
On July 24, 2013, we announced that we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Maidenform Brands, Inc., a global intimate apparel company. Maidenform is a leading seller of bras, shapewear and panties under brands such as Maidenform, Flexees, Lilyette, Self Expressions and Sweet Nothings, as well as Donna Karan and DKNY intimate apparel under license. We closed on the acquisition of Maidenform on October 7, 2013 in an all cash transaction valued at approximately $583 million. Under the terms of the agreement, Maidenform stockholders received $23.50 in cash for each share of Maidenform common stock. We funded the Maidenform acquisition with cash on hand and short-term borrowings under our Revolving Loan Facility, which we plan to retire through free cash flow. The acquisition is expected to create growth and cost savings opportunities and increased scale to serve retailers. Results of

Table of Contents

Maidenform are not included in our consolidated results of operations for the third quarter or nine months ended September 28, 2013. We expect to finalize the acquisition accounting related to the transaction during the fourth quarter of 2013.
As part of our cash deployment strategy, in September 2013 we paid a quarterly dividend of $0.20 per share.
Outlook
We expect net sales of slightly more than $4.6 billion in 2013, including approximately $120 million in the fourth quarter from Maidenform. This guidance assumes flat sales in the fourth quarter excluding the sales contributions by Maidenform. We are taking a conservative view on sales in the fourth quarter considering the soft retail environment and cautious outlook for the year-end holiday season many retailers are taking. We expect to invest approximately $18 million in incremental media spending in the fourth quarter.
We expect to incur acquisition- and integration-related expenses of $120 million to $140 million associated with Maidenform acquisition, with $50 million to $60 million of the charges occurring in the fourth quarter of 2013 and the remainder in 2014. Approximately half of the total charges will be noncash.
We continue to expect to retire all $250 million of our remaining of 8 percent senior notes due 2016 in the fourth quarter of 2013, while also increasing borrowings on our Revolving Credit Facility due to the purchase of Maidenform.
Seasonality and Other Factors
Our operating results are subject to some variability due to seasonality and other factors. Generally, our diverse range of product offerings helps mitigate the impact of seasonal changes in demand for certain items. We generally have higher sales during back-to-school shopping and holiday shopping seasons and during periods of cooler weather, which benefits certain product categories such as fleece. Sales levels in any period are also impacted by customers’ decisions to increase or decrease their inventory levels in response to anticipated consumer demand. Our customers may cancel orders, change delivery schedules or change the mix of products ordered with minimal notice to us. Media, advertising and promotion expenses may vary from period to period during a fiscal year depending on the timing of our advertising campaigns for retail selling seasons and product introductions.
Although the majority of our products are replenishment in nature and tend to be purchased by consumers on a planned, rather than on an impulse, basis, our sales are impacted by discretionary spending by consumers. Discretionary spending is affected by many factors, including, among others, general business conditions, interest rates, inflation, consumer debt levels, the availability of consumer credit, taxation, gasoline prices, unemployment trends and other matters that influence consumer confidence and spending. Many of these factors are outside our control. Consumers’ purchases of discretionary items, including our products, could decline during periods when disposable income is lower, when prices increase in response to rising costs, or in periods of actual or perceived unfavorable economic conditions. These consumers may choose to purchase fewer of our products or to purchase lower-priced products of our competitors in response to higher prices for our products, or may choose not to purchase our products at prices that reflect our price increases that become effective from time to time.
Changes in product sales mix can impact our gross profit as the percentage of our sales attributable to higher margin products, such as intimate apparel and men’s underwear, and lower margin products, such as casualwear and activewear, fluctuate from time to time. In addition, sales attributable to higher and lower margin products within the same product category fluctuate from time to time. Our customers may change the mix of products ordered with minimal notice to us, which makes trends in product sales mix difficult to predict. However, certain changes in product sales mix are seasonal in nature, as sales of socks, hosiery and fleece products generally have higher sales during the last two quarters (July to December) of each fiscal year as a result of cooler weather, back-to-school shopping and holidays, while other changes in product mix may be attributable to customers’ preferences and discretionary spending.

Net Sales
Net sales decreased 2% during the third quarter as a result of a general retail weakness in the back-to-school selling period. Our Innovate-to-Elevate strategy, which combines brand, supply chain and product innovation initiatives, helped drive core-product and new-product success, including share gains in the quarter. Excluding the impact of unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates, net sales decreased less than 1%.
Innerwear segment net sales decreased (3%) during the quarter primarily resulting from lower sales across most of the segment’s categories with the exception of bras and socks. Net sales were higher for Hanes socks, Bali bras and panties, Polo underwear, and Hanes, Playtex and Just My Size bras.
Activewear net sales declined (2%) primarily due to lower net sales in our retail activewear category and the planned reduction of commodity-oriented branded printwear sales to the screen-print industry.
International segment net sales were approximately flat compared to the third quarter of 2012. Excluding the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates, International segment net sales were 10% higher. Direct to Consumer segment net sales were higher (1%).
Gross Profit
Our gross margin increased 240 basis points in the third quarter of 2013 with improvements in nearly every segment. Our Innovate-to-Elevate strategy continues to help drive profitable results as we combine our brand and supply chain strengths with product innovation. Our Innovate-to-Elevate strategy leverages our strong brands and drives a higher price per unit for our entire product portfolio with innovative platforms such as Hanes X-Temp underwear and socks, Comfort Blend underwear and Smart Sizes bras. Our supply chain allows us to leverage our scale to lower our cost per unit and improve margins.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
As a percentage of net sales, our selling, general and administrative expenses was 20.4% in the third quarter of 2013 compared to 20.0% in the third quarter of 2012. The higher selling, general and administrative expenses were primarily attributable to our planned higher media spending of $8 million, partially offset by lower distribution costs and lower general and administrative expenses.
Other Highlights
Interest Expense - lower by $8 million in the third quarter of 2013 compared to the third quarter of 2012 primarily due to lower outstanding debt balances and a lower weighted average interest rate. Our weighted average interest rate on our outstanding debt was 5.33% during the third quarter of 2013, compared to 5.76% in the third quarter of 2012.

Income Tax Expense – our effective income tax rate was 17% and 8% for the third quarter of 2013 and the third quarter of 2012, respectively. The higher effective income tax rate was primarily attributable to a higher proportion of earnings attributed to domestic subsidiaries, which are taxed at rates higher than foreign subsidiaries. The third quarter of 2013 included $10 million of discrete net tax benefits related primarily to the realization of unrecognized tax benefits resulting from the lapsing of domestic and foreign statutes of limitations. The third quarter of 2012 included discrete net tax benefits of approximately $13 million, which consisted of an income tax benefit of approximately $9 million related to the realization of unrecognized tax benefits resulting from the expiration of domestic statutes of limitations and an income tax benefit of approximately $4 million related to an increase in research and development tax credits.

Innerwear segment operating margin improved 40 basis points to 17.8% in the third quarter of 2013 which resulted from benefits from our Innovate-to-Elevate strategy that is increasing our price per unit with margin accretive product innovations and reducing our cost per unit through supply chain efficiencies and lower input costs. The operating margin was also impacted by planned higher media spending and lower sales volume.

The lower net sales of Activewear is primarily attributable to lower sales volume and the planned reduction of commodity-oriented branded printwear sales to the screen-print industry, partially offset by a higher price per unit as a result of the success of our Innovate-to-Elevate strategy.
Activewear segment operating margin improved by 500 basis points to 16.9% in the quarter. This significant improvement was driven by our Innovate-to-Elevate strategy which is increasing our price per unit with margin accretive product innovations and reducing our cost per unit through supply chain efficiencies and lower input costs. The margin improvement was also impacted by the planned reduction of lower margin commodity-oriented branded printwear sales.

Sales in the International segment were lower primarily due to the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates. Excluding the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates, International segment net sales were 10% higher, primarily due to high net sales in Canada and Australia.
International segment operating margin declined 80 basis points to 12.6% primarily due to unfavorable impact related to foreign currency exchange rates, higher product costs and an unfavorable product sales mix due to a shift towards lower margin products in certain countries, partially offset by higher sales volume. The International segment’s operating margin was positively impacted by savings from progress made from our regionalization strategy which integrates certain international businesses into our U.S. infrastructure in order to eliminate duplicate support functions.
General Corporate Expenses
General corporate expenses were higher in the third quarter of 2013 compared to the third quarter of 2012 primarily due to costs incurred implementing our regionalization strategy.

Net Sales
Net sales were lower (< 1%), in the nine months of 2013 compared to the same period of 2012 as a result of a general retail weakness in the back-to-school selling period. Our Innovate-to-Elevate strategy helped drive core-product and new-product success, including share gains in 2013.
Innerwear segment net sales were flat compared to the nine months of 2012. Stronger net sales in our men’s underwear and socks product categories were offset by lower net sales in our intimate apparel and kids’ underwear product categories.
Activewear net sales declined (2%) primarily due to the planned reduction of commodity-oriented branded printwear sales, partially offset by higher net sales in our retail activewear category and Gear for Sports licensed apparel.
International segment net sales were 2% lower compared to the third quarter of 2012 primarily due to foreign currency. Excluding the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates, International segment net sales were 6% higher. Direct to Consumer segment net sales were lower (2%) primarily due to the closure of certain lower profitable stores, partially offset by higher comparable store sales.
Gross Profit
Our gross margin increased 510 basis points to 35.4% in the nine months of 2013 with improvements in nearly every segment. Our Innovate-to-Elevate strategy continues to help drive profitable results as we combine our brand and supply chain strengths with product innovation. Our Innovate-to-Elevate strategy leverages our strong brands and drives a higher price per unit for our entire product portfolio with innovative platforms such as Hanes X-Temp underwear and socks, Comfort Blend underwear and Smart Sizes bras. Our supply chain allows us to leverage our scale to lower our cost per unit and improve margins.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
As a percentage of net sales, our selling, general and administrative expenses were 22.2% in the nine months of 2013 compared to 21.8% in the same period of 2012. The higher selling, general and administrative expenses were primarily attributable to planned higher media spending, partially offset by lower distribution costs and lower general and administrative expenses.
Other Highlights
Interest Expense – lower by $31 million in the nine months of 2013 compared to the same period of 2012 primarily due to lower outstanding debt balances and a lower weighted average interest rate. Our weighted average interest rate on our outstanding debt was 5.36% during the nine months of 2013 compared to 5.74% in the same period of 2012.

Income Tax Expense – our effective income tax rate was 18% and 12% for the nine months of 2013 and 2012, respectively. The higher effective income tax rate was primarily attributable to a higher proportion of earnings attributed to domestic subsidiaries, which are taxed at rates higher than foreign subsidiaries.
The nine months ended September 28, 2013 included net discrete tax benefits of approximately $20 million, which included approximately $14 million of tax benefits related primarily to the realization of unrecognized tax benefits resulting from the lapsing of domestic and foreign statutes of limitations and an income tax benefit of approximately $6 million related to the retroactive application of the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 that was signed into law in January 2013.
The nine months ended September 29, 2012 included net discrete tax benefits of approximately $13 million which included an income tax benefit of approximately $9 million related to the realization of unrecognized tax benefits resulting from the expiration of domestic statutes of limitations and an income tax benefit of approximately $4 million related to an increase in research and development tax credits.

Innerwear segment net sales were flat compared to the nine months of 2012. A general retail weakness in the back-to-school selling period led to lower sales volume which was offset by a higher price per unit as a result of the success of our Innovate-to-Elevate strategy.
Innerwear segment operating margin improved 370 basis points to 19.6% in the nine months of 2013 which resulted from benefits from our Innovate-to-Elevate strategy that is increasing our price per unit with margin accretive product innovations and reducing our cost per unit through supply chain efficiencies and lower input costs. The operating margin was also impacted by higher planned media spending.

Activewear net sales declined (2%) primarily due to the planned reduction of commodity-oriented branded printwear sales, partially offset by higher net sales in our retail activewear category and Gear for Sports licensed apparel as a result of a higher price per unit as a result of the success of our Innovate-to-Elevate strategy.
Activewear segment operating margin improved by 980 basis points to 13.1% in the nine months of 2013. This significant improvement was primarily driven by our Innovate-to-Elevate strategy which is increasing our price per unit with margin accretive product innovations and reducing our cost per unit through supply chain efficiencies and lower input costs. The margin improvement was also impacted by the planned reduction of lower margin commodity-oriented branded printwear sales.

Direct to Consumer segment net sales were lower due to lower net sales in our outlet stores resulting from the closure of certain lower profitable stores, partially offset by higher comparable store sales of 1%.
Direct to Consumer segment operating margin improved 260 basis points to 9.3% which was primarily attributable to lower product costs and an adjustment in store pricing strategy, partially offset by lower sales volume.

Overall net sales in the International segment were lower primarily due to the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates. Excluding the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates, International segment net sales were higher by 6%, primarily due to higher net sales in Canada, Australia and Asia.
International segment operating margin declined 70 basis points to 8.8% primarily due to the unfavorable impact related to foreign currency exchange rates and an unfavorable product sales mix due to a shift towards lower margin products in certain countries. The International segment’s operating margin was positively impacted by savings from progress made from our regionalization strategy which integrates certain international businesses into our U.S. infrastructure in order to eliminate duplicate support functions.
General Corporate Expenses
General corporate expenses were higher in the nine months of 2013 compared to the same period of 2012 primarily due to costs incurred implementing our regionalization strategy.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Trends and Uncertainties Affecting Liquidity
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated by operations and availability under the $1.1 billion revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Loan Facility”) under the senior secured credit facility (the “Senior Secured Credit Facility”), the accounts receivable securitization facility (the “Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility”) and our international loan facilities.
At September 28, 2013, we had $1.1 billion of borrowing availability under our Revolving Loan Facility (after taking into account outstanding letters of credit), $136 million of borrowing availability under our international loan facilities, $132 million in cash and cash equivalents and no borrowing availability under our Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility. We currently believe that our existing cash balances and cash generated by operations, together with our available credit capacity, will enable us to comply with the terms of our indebtedness and meet foreseeable liquidity requirements.
We typically use cash for the first half of the year and generate most of our cash flow in the second half of the year. In the fourth quarter of 2013, we expect to complete our planned debt reduction with the redemption of the remaining $250 million of 8% Senior Notes. We expect our cash deployment strategy in the future will include a mix of dividends, bolt-on acquisitions and share repurchases. For example, as part of our cash deployment strategy, in April 2013 our Board of Directors authorized a regular quarterly dividend. Our first dividend of $0.20 per share was paid June 3, 2013, our second quarterly dividend was paid on September 3, 2013 and our third quarterly dividend was authorized by our Board of Directors in October 2013 to be paid in December 2013. In addition, as discussed above under “Highlights for the Third Quarter and Nine Months Ended September 28, 2013,” on July 24, 2013 we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Maidenform, which closed on October 7, 2013. We funded the Maidenform acquisition with cash on hand and short-term borrowings under our Revolving Loan Facility, which we plan to retire through free cash flow.
Cash Requirements for Our Business
We rely on our cash flows generated from operations and the borrowing capacity under our Revolving Loan Facility, Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility and international loan facilities to meet the cash requirements of our business. The primary cash requirements of our business are payments to vendors in the normal course of business, capital expenditures, maturities of debt and related interest payments, contributions to our pension plans and repurchases of our stock. We believe we have sufficient cash and available borrowings for our foreseeable liquidity needs.
There have been no significant changes in the cash requirements for our business from those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2012.
Sources and Uses of Our Cash
The information presented below regarding the sources and uses of our cash flows for the nine months ended September 28, 2013 and September 29, 2012 was derived from our condensed consolidated financial statements.

The lower net cash from operating activities is primarily attributable to changes in working capital, primarily inventory compared to prior year, partially offset by higher net income. Inventory decreased 2% compared to September 29, 2012, which was the result of lower input costs and lower units from our continued focus on inventory management.
The higher net cash used in investing activities resulted from proceeds from the sale of the European imagewear business in 2012, partially offset by lower net capital expenditures. The lower net cash used in financing activities resulted from the

Table of Contents

redemption of our Floating Rate Senior Notes in 2012, partially offset by higher net repayments on our loan facilities and cash dividends paid during 2013 of $40 million.
Financing Arrangements
In July 2013, we amended the Revolving Loan Facility to increase the borrowing limit from $600 million to $1.1 billion, decrease borrowing costs by 25 basis points and extend the maturity date to (i) July 2018 or (ii) September 2016 if our 8% Senior Notes have not been refinanced or repaid or the maturity date thereof has not otherwise been extended beyond July 2018 by September 2016.
In March 2013, we amended the Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility. This amendment decreased certain fee rates and extended the termination date to March 2014.
As of September 28, 2013, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under our credit facilities. We expect to maintain compliance with our covenants for the foreseeable future, however economic conditions or the occurrence of events discussed under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2012 or other SEC filings could cause noncompliance.
In February 2013, Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”) upgraded our corporate credit rating to Ba2 from Ba3. Moody’s also raised the rating on our Revolving Loan Facility to Baa2 from Baa3, the 6.375% Senior Notes to Ba3 from B1 and the 8% Senior Notes to Ba3 from B1. Moody’s indicated that the upgrade reflects our significant debt reduction efforts and our positive trends in operating performance in the second half of 2012 primarily reflecting improved gross margins. In April 2013, Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“Standard & Poor’s”) raised our corporate credit rating to BB from BB-, in response to our declining debt levels and modest earnings growth. Standard & Poor’s also raised the rating on the Revolving Loan Facility to BBB- from BB+, the 6.375% Senior Notes to BB from BB- and the 8% Senior Notes to BB from BB-.
There have been no other significant changes in the financing arrangements from those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2012.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements within the meaning of Item 303(a)(4) of SEC Regulation S-K.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We have chosen accounting policies that we believe are appropriate to accurately and fairly report our operating results and financial condition in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. We apply these accounting policies in a consistent manner. Our significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 2, titled “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to our financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2012.
The application of critical accounting policies requires that we make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures. These estimates and assumptions are based on historical and other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. We evaluate these estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis and may retain outside consultants to assist in our evaluation. If actual results ultimately differ from previous estimates, the revisions are included in results of operations in the period in which the actual amounts become known. The critical accounting policies that involve the most significant management judgments and estimates used in preparation of our financial statements, or are the most sensitive to change from outside factors, are discussed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2012. There have been no material changes in these policies from those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2012.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Disclosures About Offsetting Assets and Liabilities
In December 2011, the FASB issued new accounting rules related to new disclosure requirements regarding the nature of an entity’s rights of setoff and related arrangements associated with its financial instruments and derivative instruments. The new rules are effective for us in the first quarter of 2014 with retrospective application required. We do not expect the adoption of the new accounting rules to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
There have been no significant changes in our market risk exposures from those described in Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2012.

Item 4.
Controls and Procedures
As required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b), our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
In connection with the evaluation required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(d), our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that no changes in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

Item 1.
Legal Proceedings
Although we are subject to various claims and legal actions that occur from time to time in the ordinary course of our business, we are not party to any pending legal proceedings that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Item 1A.
Risk Factors
The risk factors that affect our business and financial results are discussed in Part I, Item 1A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2012. The following risk factor includes an update to a previously disclosed risk factor. There are no additional material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed, nor have we identified any previously undisclosed risks that could materially adversely affect our business and financial results.
Businesses that we may acquire may fail to perform to expectations, and we may be unable to successfully integrate acquired businesses with our existing business.
From time to time, we may evaluate potential acquisition opportunities to support and strengthen our business. For example, on October 7, 2013, we acquired Maidenform. The acquisition and integration of businesses such as Maidenform involve a number of risks.
We may not be able to realize all or a substantial portion of the anticipated benefits of the Maidenform acquisition and other future acquisitions that we may consummate. Maidenform and other future acquired businesses may not achieve expected results of operations, including expected levels of revenues, and may require unanticipated costs and expenditures. In addition, we may not be able to maintain the levels of revenue, earnings or operating efficiency that we and Maidenform have achieved or might achieve separately. Maidenform and other acquired businesses may also subject us to liabilities that we were unable to discover in the course of our due diligence, and our rights to indemnification from the sellers of such other businesses, even if obtained, may not be sufficient to offset the relevant liabilities. In addition, the integration of Maidenform and other newly acquired businesses may be expensive and time-consuming and may not be entirely successful. Integration of the acquired businesses may also place additional pressures on our systems of internal control over financial reporting. The process of integrating the operations of Maidenform or those of any other future acquisition could cause an interruption of, or loss of momentum in, the activities of one or more of our combined businesses and the possible loss of key personnel. If we are unable to successfully integrate Maidenform and other newly acquired businesses or if Maidenform or other acquired businesses fail to produce targeted results, it could have an adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition.

- 3 -


or any other grants of stock options, RSUs, or other equity awards under the Omnibus Plan during the Severance Period.
(iii)
Beginning on his Termination Date, Executive shall be eligible to elect continued coverage under the group medical and dental plan available to similarly situated senior executives. If Executive elects continuation coverage for medical coverage, dental coverage or both, he shall pay the entire COBRA premium charged for such continuation coverage during the Severance Period; provided, however, that during the Severance Period Company shall reimburse Executive for that portion of the COBRA premium paid that exceeds the amount payable by an active executive of Company for similar coverage, as adjusted from time to time. Such reimbursement shall be made to Executive on the 20th day of each calendar month during the Severance Period, or within ten (10) business days thereafter. The amount eligible for reimbursement under this subparagraph in any calendar year shall not affect any amounts eligible for reimbursement to be provided in any other calendar year. In addition, Executive’s right to reimbursement hereunder shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for any other benefit. Executive’s right to COBRA continuation coverage under any such group health plan shall be reduced by the number of months of medical and dental coverage otherwise provided pursuant to this subparagraph. The premium charged for any continuation coverage after the end of the Severance Period shall be entirely at Executive’s expense and shall be the actuarially determined cost of the continuation coverage as determined by an actuary selected by the Company (in accordance with the requirements under COBRA, to the extent applicable). Executive shall not be entitled to reimbursement of any portion of the premium charged for such coverage after the end of the Severance Period. Executive’s COBRA continuation coverage shall terminate in accordance with the COBRA continuation of coverage provisions under Company’s group medical and dental plans. If Executive is eligible for early retirement under the terms of the Retirement Plan (or would become eligible if the Severance Period is considered as employment), then, after exhausting any COBRA continuation coverage under the group medical plan, Executive may elect to participate in any retiree medical plan available to similarly situated senior executives in accordance with the terms and conditions of such plan in effect on and after Executive’s Termination Date; provided, that such retiree medical coverage shall not be available to Executive unless he or she elects such coverage within thirty (30) days following his Termination Date. The premium charged for such retiree medical coverage may be different (greater) than the premium charged an active employee for similar coverage;
(iv)
Except as otherwise provided herein or in the applicable plan, participation in all other Company plans available to similarly situated senior executives including but not limited to, qualified pension plans,

- 4 -


stock purchase plans, matching grant programs, 401(k) plans and ESOPs, personal accident insurance, travel accident insurance, short and long term disability insurance, and accidental death and dismemberment insurance, shall cease on Executive’s Termination Date. During the Severance Period, Company shall continue to maintain life insurance covering Executive under Company’s Executive Life Insurance Plan in accordance with its terms. If Executive is eligible for early retirement or becomes eligible for early retirement during the Severance Period, then Company will continue to pay the premiums (or prepay the entire premium) so that Executive has a paid-up life insurance benefit equal to his annual salary on his Termination Date.
(c)
Payment of Severance. Subject to section 15:
(i)
Salary Portion. The Salary Portion of Severance shall be paid as follows:
(A)
That portion of the Salary Portion of Severance that exceeds the “Separation Pay Limit,” if any, shall be paid to Executive in a lump sum payment as soon as practicable following the Termination Date, but in no event later than the fifteenth day of the third month after the date of the termination of Executive’s employment. The “Separation Pay Limit” shall mean two (2) times the lesser of (1) the sum of Executive’s annualized compensation based upon the annual rate of pay for services provided to Company for the calendar year immediately preceding the calendar year in which the Termination Date occurs (adjusted for any increase during that calendar year that was expected to continue indefinitely if Executive had not terminated employment); and (2) the maximum dollar amount of compensation that may be taken into account under a tax-qualified retirement plan under Code Section 401(a)(17) for the year in which the Termination Date occurs. The payment to be made to Executive pursuant to this subparagraph (A) is intended to be exempt from Code Section 409A (as defined in section 15) under the exemption found in Regulation Section 1.409A-(b)(4) for short-term deferrals.
(B)
The remaining portion of the Salary Portion of Severance shall be paid during the Severance Period in accordance with Company’s payroll schedule, unless the Committee shall elect to pay the remaining Salary Portion of Severance in a lump sum payment or a combination of regular payments and a lump sum payment. Any lump sum payment shall be paid to Executive as soon as practicable following the Termination Date, but in no event later than the fifteenth day of the third month after the date of the termination of Executive’s employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall such remaining portion of the Salary Portion of Severance be paid to Executive later than December 31 of the second calendar year following the calendar year in which Executive’s Termination Date

- 5 -


occurs. The payment(s) to be made to Executive pursuant to this subparagraph (B) are intended to be exempt from Code Section 409A (as defined in section 15) under the exemption found in Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) for separation pay plans (i.e., the so-called “two times” pay exemption).
(ii)
Incentive Portion. The Annual Incentive Portion of Severance, if any, shall be paid in cash on the same date the active participants under the Annual Incentive Plan are paid. The Long-Term Cash Incentive Plan payout, if any, shall be paid in the same form and on the same date the active participants under the Omnibus Plan are paid.
(iii)
Withholding. All payments hereunder shall be reduced by such amount as Company (or any subsidiary or affiliate of Company) may be required under all applicable federal, state, local or other laws or regulations to withhold or pay over with respect to such payment.
(d)
Termination of Benefits. Notwithstanding any provisions in this Agreement to the contrary, all rights to receive or continue to receive severance payments and benefits under this section 2 shall cease on the earliest of: (i) the date Executive breaches any of the covenants in the separation and release agreement described in section 2(e); or (ii) the date Executive becomes reemployed by Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates.
(e)
Separation and Release Agreement. No benefits under this section 2 shall be payable to Executive unless Executive and Company have executed a separation and release agreement within forty-five (45) days following the Termination Date and the payment of severance benefits under this section 2 shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the separation and release agreement.
(f)
Death of Executive. In the event that Executive shall die prior to the payment in full of any benefits described above as payable to Executive for Involuntary Termination, payments of such benefits shall cease on the date of Executive’s death.

- 6 -


(ii)
Good Reason. For purposes of this section 3, “Good Reason” means the occurrence of any one or more of the following (without Executive’s written consent after a Change in Control):

The existence of Good Reason shall not be affected by Executive’s temporary incapacity due to physical or mental illness not constituting a Disability. Executive’s retirement shall constitute a waiver of his or her rights with respect to any circumstance constituting Good Reason. Executive’s continued employment shall not constitute a waiver of his or her rights with respect to any circumstances which may constitute Good Reason; provided, however, that Executive may not rely on any particular action or event described in clause (A) through (E) above as a basis for terminating his employment for Good Reason unless he delivers a Notice of Termination based on that action or event within ninety (90) days after its occurrence and Company has failed to correct the circumstances cited by Executive as constituting Good Reason within thirty (30) days of receiving the Notice of Termination.
(iii)
Change in Control. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change in Control” will occur:
(A)
Upon the acquisition by any individual, entity or group, including any Person (as defined in the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), of beneficial ownership (as defined in Rule 13d‑3 promulgated under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of twenty (20) percent or more of the combined voting power of the then outstanding capital stock of Company that by its terms may be voted on all matters submitted to stockholders of Company generally (“Voting Stock”); provided, however, that the following acquisitions shall not constitute a Change in Control:

3)

(C)
Upon the consummation of a plan of complete liquidation or dissolution of Company; or

(A)
A lump sum payment equal to the unpaid portion of Executive’s annual Base Salary and vacation accrued through the Termination Date;
(B)
A lump sum payment equal to Executive’s prorated Annual Incentive Plan payment (as determined in accordance with subparagraph 2(b)(ii)(A) above);
(C)
A lump sum payment equal to Executive’s prorated Long-Term Cash Incentive Plan payment (as determined in accordance with subparagraph 2(b)(ii)(B) above); and

Beginning on his Termination Date, Executive shall be eligible to elect continued coverage under the group medical and dental plan available to similarly situated senior executives. If Executive elects continuation coverage for medical coverage, dental coverage or both, he shall pay the entire COBRA premium charged for such continuation coverage during the CIC Severance Period; provided, however, that during the CIC Severance Period, Company shall reimburse Executive for that portion of the COBRA premium paid that exceeds the amount payable

- 10 -


by an active executive of Company for similar coverage, as adjusted from time to time. Such reimbursement shall be made to Executive on the 20th day of each calendar month during the CIC Severance Period, or within ten (10) business days thereafter. The amount eligible for reimbursement under this subparagraph in any calendar year shall not affect any amounts eligible for reimbursement to be provided in any other calendar year. In addition, Executive’s right to reimbursement hereunder shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for any other benefit. Executive’s right to COBRA continuation coverage under any such group health plan shall be reduced by the number of months of coverage otherwise provided pursuant to this subparagraph. The premium charged for any continuation coverage after the end of the CIC Severance Period shall be entirely at Executive’s expense and shall be the actuarially determined cost of the continuation coverage as determined by an actuary selected by the Company (in accordance with the requirements under COBRA, to the extent applicable). Executive shall not be entitled to reimbursement of any portion of the premium charged for such coverage after the end of the CIC Severance Period. Executive’s COBRA continuation coverage shall terminate in accordance with the COBRA continuation of coverage provisions under Company’s group medical and dental plans. If Executive is eligible for early retirement under the terms of the Retirement Plan (or would become eligible if the CIC Severance Period is considered as employment), then, after exhausting any COBRA continuation coverage under the group medical plan, Executive may elect to participate in any retiree medical plan available to similarly situated senior executives in accordance with the terms and conditions of such plan in effect on and after Executive’s Termination Date; provided, that such retiree medical coverage shall not be available to Executive unless he or she elects such coverage within thirty (30) days following his Termination Date.

(iii)

Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan (the “Supplemental Plan”). In addition, for purposes of determining Executive’s benefits under the Supplemental Plan and Executive’s right to post-retirement medical benefits under Company’s retiree medical plan, additional years of age and service credits equivalent to the length of the CIC Severance Period shall be included. However, Executive will not be eligible to begin receiving any retirement benefits under any such plans until the date he or she would otherwise be eligible to begin receiving benefits under such plans;
(iv)
Except as otherwise provided herein or in the applicable plan, participation in all other plans of Company or any subsidiary or affiliate of Company

- 11 -


available to similarly situated Executives of Company, shall cease on Executive’s Termination Date.
(c)
Termination for Disability. If Executive’s employment is terminated due to Disability following a Change in Control, Executive shall receive his Base Salary through the Termination Date, at which time his benefits shall be determined in accordance with Company’s disability, retirement, insurance and other applicable plans and programs then in effect, and Executive shall not be entitled to any other benefits provided by this Agreement.
(d)
Termination for Retirement or Death. If Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of his retirement or death following a Change in Control, Executive’s benefits shall be determined in accordance with Company’s retirement, survivor’s benefits, insurance, and other applicable programs then in effect, and Executive shall not be entitled to any other benefits provided by this Agreement.
(e)
Termination for Cause, or Other Than for Good Reason or Retirement. If Executive’s employment is terminated either by Company for Cause, or voluntarily by Executive (other than for Retirement or Good Reason) following a Change in Control, Company shall pay Executive his full Base Salary and accrued vacation through the Termination Date, at the rate then in effect, plus all other amounts to which such Executive is entitled under any compensation plans of Company, at the time such payments are due, and Company shall have no further obligations to such Executive under this Agreement.
(f)
Separation and Release Agreement. No benefits under this section 3 shall be payable to Executive unless Executive and Company have executed a “Separation and Release Agreement” (in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A) within forty-five (45) days following the Termination Date and the payment of change in control benefits under this section 3 shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Separation and Release Agreement.
(g)
Deferred Compensation. All amounts previously deferred by or accrued to the benefit of Executive under any nonqualified deferred compensation plan sponsored by Company (including, without limitation, any vested amounts deferred under incentive plans), together with any accrued earnings thereon, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of such plan following Executive’s termination.
(h)
Notice of Termination. Any termination of employment under this section 3 by Company or by Executive for Good Reason shall be communicated by a written notice which shall indicate the specific Change in Control termination provision relied upon, and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated (a “Notice of Termination”).
(i)
Termination of Benefits. All rights to receive or continue to receive severance payments and benefits pursuant to this section 3 by reason of a Change in Control

- 12 -


shall cease on the date Executive becomes reemployed by Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates.
(j)
Form and Timing of Benefits. Subject to the provisions of this section 3 and to section 15, the Change in Control benefits described herein shall be paid to Executive in cash in a single lump sum payment as soon as practicable following the Termination Date, but in no event later than the fifteenth day of the third month after the date of the Executive’s termination of employment. The Change in Control benefits payable to Executive pursuant to this subparagraph (j) are intended to be exempt from Code Section 409A (as defined in section 15) under the exemption found in Regulation Section 1.409A-(b)(4) for short-term deferrals.
(k)
Excise Tax Adjustment. Subject to the limitation below, in the event that Executive becomes entitled to any payment or benefit under this section 3 (such benefits together with any other payments or benefits payable under any other agreement with, or plan or policy of, Company are referred to in the aggregate as the “Total Payments”), if all or any part of the Total Payments will, as determined by Company, be subject to the tax (the “Excise Tax”) imposed by Code Section 4999 (or any similar tax that may hereafter be imposed), then such payment shall be either: (i) provided to Executive in full, or (ii) provided to Executive to such lesser extent as would result in no portion of such payment being subject to such Excise Tax, whichever of the foregoing amounts, when taking into account applicable federal, state, local and foreign income and employment taxes, such Excise Tax, and any other applicable taxes, results in the receipt by Executive, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of the payment, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such payment may be taxable under such Excise Tax. To the extent such payment needs to be reduced pursuant to the preceding sentence, reductions shall come from taxable amounts before non-taxable amounts and beginning with the payments otherwise scheduled to occur soonest.  Executive agrees to cooperate fully with Company to determine the benefits applicable under this section. For purposes of determining whether any of the Total Payments will be subject to the Excise Tax, and the amounts of such Excise Tax, the following shall apply:
(i)
Any other payments or benefits received or to be received by Executive in connection with a Change in Control or Executive’s termination of employment (whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, policy, arrangement or agreement with Company, or with any Person whose actions result in a Change in Control or any Person affiliated with Company or such Persons) shall be treated as “parachute payments” within the meaning of Code Section 280G(b)(2), and all “excess parachute payments” within the meaning of Code Section 280G(b)(1) shall be treated as subject to the Excise Tax, unless in the opinion of Company’s tax counsel as supported by Company’s independent auditors and acceptable to Executive, such other payments or benefits (in whole or in part) do not constitute parachute payments, or unless such excess parachute payments (in whole or in part) represent reasonable compensation for services actually rendered within the meaning of Code Section 280G(b)(4) in excess of the

- 13 -


base amount within the meaning of Code Section 280G(b)(3), or are otherwise not subject to the Excise Tax;
(ii)
The value of any noncash benefits or any deferred payment or benefit shall be determined by Company’s independent auditors in accordance with the principles of Code Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4);
(iii)
Executive shall be deemed to pay federal income taxes at the highest marginal rate of federal income taxation, and state and local income taxes at the highest marginal rate of taxation in the state and locality of Executive’s residence on the Termination Date, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes which could be obtained from deduction of such state and local taxes; and
(iv)
In the event the Internal Revenue Service adjusts any item included in Company’s computations under this section 3(k) so that Executive did not receive the full net benefit intended under the provisions of this section 3(k), Company shall reimburse Executive for the full amount necessary to make Executive whole as determined by the Committee. Any such payment shall be treated for Section 409A purposes as a payment separate from the payment made pursuant to this subparagraph (k) immediately following Executive’s termination of employment and shall be made by Company to Executive within twenty (20) days of the date he remits the additional taxes as a result of such adjustment; provided, however, that no such payment shall be made following the calendar year after the calendar year in which such adjustment was made by the Internal Revenue Service.
(l)
Company’s Payment Obligation. Subject to the provisions of section 4, Company’s obligation to make the payments and the arrangements provided in this section 3 shall be absolute and unconditional, and shall not be affected by any circumstances, including, without limitation, any offset, counterclaim, recoupment, defense, or other right which Company may have against Executive or anyone else. All amounts payable by Company under this section 3 shall be paid without notice or demand and each and every payment made by Company shall be final, and Company shall not seek to recover all or any part of such payment from Executive or from whomsoever may be entitled thereto, for any reason except as provided in section 3(k) above or in section 4.
(m)
Other Employment. Executive shall not be obligated to seek other employment in mitigation of the amounts payable or arrangements made under this section 3, and the obtaining of any such other employment shall in no event result in any reduction of Company’s obligations to make the payments and arrangements required to be made under this section 3, except to the extent otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement.
(n)
Payment of Legal Fees and Expenses. To the extent permitted by law, Company shall reimburse Executive for all reasonable legal fees, costs of litigation or arbitration, prejudgment or pre-award interest, and other expenses incurred in good

- 14 -


faith by Executive as a result of Company’s refusal to provide benefits under this section 3, or as a result of Company contesting the validity, enforceability or interpretation of the provisions of this section 3, or as the result of any conflict (including conflicts related to the calculation of parachute payments or the characterization of Executive’s termination) between Executive and Company; provided that the conflict or dispute is resolved in Executive’s favor and Executive acts in good faith in pursuing his rights under this section 3. Such reimbursement shall be made within thirty (30) days following final resolution, in favor of Executive, of the conflict or dispute giving rise to such fees and expenses. In no event shall Executive be entitled to receive the reimbursements provided for in this subparagraph if he acts in bad faith or pursues a claim without merit, or if he fails to prevail in any action instituted by him or Company.
(o)
Arbitration for Change in Control Benefits. Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with the benefits provided under this section 3 shall promptly and expeditiously be submitted to arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association in effect at the time of such arbitration proceeding utilizing a panel of three (3) arbitrators sitting in a location selected by Executive within fifty (50) miles from the location of his employment with Company. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The costs and expenses of both parties, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees shall be borne by Company. Pending the resolution of any such dispute, controversy or claim, Executive (and his beneficiaries) shall, except to the extent that the arbitrator otherwise expressly provides, continue to receive all payments and benefits due under this section 3.
4.    Remedies. In the event of any actual or threatened breach of the provisions of this Agreement or any separation and release agreement, the party who claims such breach or threatened breach shall give the other party written notice and, except in the case of a breach which is not susceptible to being cured, ten calendar days in which to cure. In the event of a breach of any provision of this Agreement or any separation and release agreement by Executive, (i) Executive shall reimburse Company: the full amount of any payments made under section 2(b)(i), (ii), or (iii) or section 3(b)(i) of this Agreement (as the case may be), (ii) Company shall have the right, in addition to and without waiving any other rights to monetary damages or other relief that may be available to Company at law or in equity, to immediately discontinue any remaining payments due under subparagraph 2(b)(i), (ii) or (iii) or subparagraph 3(b)(i) of this Agreement (as the case may be) including but not limited to any remaining Salary Portion of Severance payments, and (iii) the Severance Period or the CIC Severance Period (as the case may be) shall thereupon cease, provided that Executive’s obligations under, if applicable, any separation and release agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms for the entire duration of the Severance Period or CIC Severance Period as applicable. In addition, Executive acknowledges that Company will suffer irreparable injury in the event of a breach or violation or threatened breach or violation of the provisions of this Agreement or any separation and release agreement and agrees that in the event of an actual or threatened breach or violation of such provisions, in addition to the other remedies or rights available to under this Agreement or otherwise, Company shall be awarded

- 15 -


injunctive relief in the federal or state courts located in North Carolina to prohibit any such violation or breach or threatened violation or breach, without necessity of posting any bond or security.
5.    Committee. Except as specifically provided herein, this Agreement shall be administered by the Compensation and Benefits Committee of the Board (the “Committee”).

6.    Claims Procedure. If Executive believes that he is entitled to receive severance benefits under this Agreement, he may file a claim in writing with the Committee within ninety (90) days after the date such Executive believes he or she should have received such benefits. No later than ninety (90) days after the receipt of the claim, the Committee shall either allow or deny the claim in writing. A denial of a claim, in whole or in part, shall be written in a manner calculated to be understood by Executive and shall include the specific reason or reasons for the denial; specific reference to the pertinent provisions of this Agreement on which the denial is based; a description of any additional material or information necessary for Executive to perfect the claim and an explanation of why such material or information is necessary; and an explanation of the claim review procedure. Executive (or his duly authorized representative) may within sixty 60 days after receipt of the denial of his claim request a review upon written application to the Committee; review pertinent documents; and submit issues and comments in writing. The Committee shall notify Executive of its decision on review within sixty (60) days after receipt of a request for review unless special circumstances require an extension of time for processing, in which case a decision shall be rendered as soon as possible, but not later than one-hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of a request for review. Notice of the decision on review shall be in writing. The Committee’s decision on review shall be final and binding on Executive and any successor in interest.

13.    Severability of Provisions. In the event that any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. Moreover, if any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement are held to be excessively broad as to duration, scope, activity or subject, such provisions will be construed by limiting and reducing them so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with applicable law.
14.    Non-Admission of Liability.

15.    Assignability. The rights and benefits under this Agreement are personal to Executive and such rights and benefits shall not be subject to assignment, alienation or transfer, except to the extent such rights and benefits are lawfully available to the estate or beneficiaries of

16.    Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be constructed and interpreted in accordance with the internal laws of the State of North Carolina without regard to any state’s conflict of law principles.
17.    Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Change in Control Agreement, sets forth all the terms and conditions with respect to compensation, remuneration of payments and benefits due Executive from Company and supersedes and replaces any and all other agreements or understandings Executive may have or may have had with respect thereto.
