Certain of the employment agreements contain severance and/or change in control provisions. Aggregate potential severance compensation amounted to approximately $7.8 million at December 31, 2019. Contingent Obligation – HH Seller (Halston Heritage Earn-Out) In connection with the February 11, 2019 purchase of the Halston Heritage Trademarks from HIP, the Company agreed to pay HIP additional consideration (the “Halston Heritage Earn-Out”) of up to an aggregate of $6.0 million, based on royalties earned through December 31, 2022 (see Note 3). The Halston Heritage Earn-Out of $0.9 million is recorded as a long-term liability as of December 31, 2019 in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, based on the difference between the fair value of the acquired assets of the Halston Heritage Trademarks and the total consideration paid. In accordance with ASC Topic 480, the Halston Heritage Earn-Out obligation is treated as a liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets because of the variable number of shares payable under the agreement.
