Dear Gina:

I am very pleased to provide you with the terms and conditions of your employment by Alloy Online, Inc. (the “Company”).

This offer is contingent upon the clearance of a background check and positive verification of reference checks.

Your location is subject to change at the discretion of the Company. As the Company’s employee, we expect you to devote your full time and energies to the business and affairs of the Company, and to perform any and all duties and responsibilities associated with this position and as may be reasonably assigned to you by the Company. In addition to your primary duties, you shall perform such other services for the Company as may be reasonably assigned to you from time to time by the Company. Your performance will be reviewed on a periodic basis as long as you remain employed by the Company.

2. Starting Date/Nature of Relationship: If you accept this offer, your employment with the Company shall commence on April 2^nd, 2001. Except as expressly set forth herein, no provision of this letter shall be construed to create an express or implied employment contract, or a promise of employment for a specific period of time and you agree that, except as expressly set forth herein, your employment is at-will and either party may terminate the relationship with or without cause.

Compensation and Benefits: Your initial base pay shall be $2,307.69 per week ($120,000 on an annualized basis). This level of base pay will be reviewed at least annually. In addition, you will be eligible for the management bonus program of up to 25% of your annual base salary. This bonus program is based on your performance and the Company’s performance to be evaluated at the close of each fiscal year.

In addition, you shall be entitled to receive options to purchase 25,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, pursuant to the Company’s Restated 1997 Employee, Director and Consultant Stock Plan.

To the extent permissible under the Internal Revenue Code, such options will be granted as Incentive Stock Options and any options that cannot be granted as Incentive Stock Options will be granted as Non-Qualified Options. The options shall have the following vesting schedule: 6,250 shares shall vest one year after your first day of employment, 6,250 shares shall vest two years after your first day of employment, 6,250 shares shall vest three years after your first day of employment, and the remaining 6,250 shares shall vest four years after your first day of employment. The options shall have terms of ten years.

In addition to your compensation, you will be entitled to receive the various benefits offered by the Company to its employees. Benefits offered may be modified or changed from time to time at the discretion of the Company. Where a particular benefit is subject to a formal plan, eligibility to participate in and receive any particular benefit of the plan is governed solely by the applicable plan document. Should you ever have any questions, you should ask Beth Stankard, the Company’s Human Resources representative, for a copy of the applicable plan document.

4. Confidentiality: The Company considers the protection of its confidential information, proprietary materials and goodwill to be extremely important.

The terms of your employment shall be governed by the law of the State of New York. By accepting this offer of employment, you agree that any action, demand, claim or counterclaim concerning any aspect of your employment relationship with the Company shall be resolved by a judge alone, and you waive and forever renounce your right to a trial before a civil jury.
