11. KATE SPADE & COMPANY Garment Labeling Disclosure Labeling Practices Fibers of less than 5% should be disclosed as “other fiber” or “other fibers”. “Wool” and “Spandex” should always be disclosed regardless of the percentage. Fiber contents must be reflected in order of predominance. Example:70% Cotton 20% Rayon 10% Nylon Multiple, non-functionally significant fibers in amounts of 5% or less, should be reflected with their aggregate percentage, even if it is greater than 5%. Example:90% Cotton 4% Spandex 6% Other Fibers Decorative trim exceeding 15% of the surface area requires disclosure. Example: 100% Cotton Trim: 100% Nylon 10

12. KATE SPADE & COMPANY Garment Labeling Disclosure Labeling Practices Sectional disclosure is required if a product has separate sections with different fiber content compositions. The content of each section should be identified separately on the label. Example: Body: 100% Cotton Sleeves: 80% Cotton/20% Polyester Fibers, whether natural or man-made, must be identified by their generic names. There is a 3% tolerance for fiber content on labels. This does not mean you can knowingly misrepresent the fiber amounts. The tolerance allows for a small amount of unintended inconsistency in the manufacturing process. 11
