The Company acquired Kohlberg Sports Group Inc. (‘‘KSGI’’) on March 10, 2011. In connection with the acquisition of Bauer Hockey by KSGI in April 2008, a subsidiary of KSGI agreed to pay additional consideration to Nike, Inc. in future periods, based upon the attainment of a qualifying exit event. At August 31, 2015, the maximum potential future consideration pursuant to such arrangements, to be resolved on or before April 16, 2016, such date being the eighth anniversary of April 16, 2008, is $10,000. On April 16, 2008, all of the security holders of KSGI (collectively, the ‘‘Existing Holders’’) entered into a reimbursement agreement with the Company pursuant to which each of the Existing Holders agreed to reimburse the Company, on a pro rata basis, in the event that the Company or any of its subsidiaries are obligated to make a payment to Nike, Inc. As of August 31, 2015, the Company determined that no such qualifying exit event has occurred. The Company will continue to assess the probability of a qualifying exit event through the eighth anniversary date.

The Company previously entered into employment agreements with the former owners of Inaria in connection with the closing of the acquisition of Inaria. Included in the employment agreements are yearly performance bonuses payable in the event Inaria achieves gross profit targets in the period one to four years following the closing date, such date being October 16, 2012. These amounts, if any, will be accrued over the required service period. As of August 31, 2015, the potential undiscounted amount of the future payments that the Company could be required to make is between $0 and $900 Canadian dollars.

In the ordinary course of its business, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings involving contractual and employment relationships, product liability claims, trademark rights, and a variety of other matters. The Company does not believe there are any pending legal proceedings that will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets or consolidated statements of income.
