Subject to Section 2.1(a)(vi), nothing in this Agreement shall restrict Licensors’ current or future commitments under secured lending or financing arrangements pledging the Licensed Marks as collateral under such obligations and Licensee acknowledges that the Licensed Marks are subject to liens and encumbrances, the terms of which may be amended from time to time, arising as a result of such obligations.

2.2 | 2005 Trademark License; 2005 Supply Agreement. The Parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement terminates and supersedes the 2005 Trademark License and the 2005 Supply Agreement.

2.3 | Specifically Prohibited Uses of the Licensed Marks. Unless expressly authorized by this Agreement, Licensee will not use any of the Licensed Marks or any confusingly similar terms or marks:

specifically set forth herein.

Licensee shall not commence, prosecute or institute any action or proceeding against any Person alleging infringement, imitation or unauthorized use of the Licensed Marks without the prior written consent of Goodyear.

registration or application to register) or any or other unauthorized use (“Infringement”) of the Licensed Marks other than the Goodyear Trademarks (which are addressed in Section 7.1(c) below) including whether to settle any claims or controversy arising out of such claims. Licensee shall have no claim against any Licensor for failure to bring an action for any Infringement or alleged Infringement of the Licensed Marks. If Goodyear fails, within a reasonable period of time, to take action regarding an Infringement, after providing written notice to Goodyear, Licensee may institute, maintain and direct an action to enjoin such Infringement and to recover damages, and Goodyear agrees to be named as a party to such action if required under applicable Law. Subject to the provisions of this Section 7.1(b) and Section 7.2, actions with respect to Infringement of such Licensed Marks may be commenced by a Licensor, Licensee, or, if the Parties agree, by Licensors and Licensee jointly. Any and all awards or settlements recovered in any such action or proceeding shall be divided as follows:

(i) | Each Party will recover an equal percentage of its legal expenses, up to 100% of such expenses;

(ii) | The Party(ies) who commenced the case shall recover its/their demonstrated economic damages if they exceed the combined legal expenses. If Licensor(s) and Licensee commenced the case jointly, each plaintiff will recover an equal percentage of its respective demonstrated economic loss, up to 100% of such loss; and

(iii) | Any additional awards or settlements shall be awarded to the Party(ies) who commenced the case.

(c) | Appropriate Action With Respect to the Goodyear Trademarks. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.1(b), Goodyear shall have the sole right to determine the appropriate action to be taken against any Infringement of the Goodyear Trademarks, including whether to settle any claims or any controversy arising out of such claims. Goodyear shall bear the expense of any actions and shall be entitled to any and all settlements, damages or benefits received arising from such any action.

ARTICLE 8.
QUALITY CONTROL

8.1 | Quality Requirements. Licensee warrants that the Licensee-Made Licensed Products will have performance characteristics and be of a quality equal to the Licensed Product sold by the Business as of the Effective Date. Licensee warrants that it will manufacture the Licensee-Made Licensed Products according to Licensee’s approved standard quality control and manufacturing procedures and requirements in place in each case on the date hereof, and shall meet all applicable Laws and the then current industry standards relating to such products (if such industry standards were met prior to the Effective Date). Licensee must provide written notice to Goodyear prior to the production of any new products which are to bear Licensed Marks. Any such products must also be added to the quarterly reports issued by Licensee. The Parties agree that products currently made or sold by Licensee are not “new products” under this section, and that for a Farm Tire to be a “new product” it must bear a new SKU designation (a mere redesignation of the SKU for an existing product does not, however, constitute the product a “new product” hereunder). Except to the extent consistent with the practices and policies of the Business prior to the date hereof, Licensee shall not offer for sale, advertise, promote, distribute, or use for any purpose any Licensee-Made Licensed Products or packaging that are damaged, defective, seconds, or that otherwise fail to meet the quality requirements described in this Agreement.

8.2 | Product Sample Testing. Goodyear, at its reasonable discretion, may require Licensee to submit ***. Any testing laboratory engaged by Licensors for the purposes set forth herein shall be required to enter into a confidentiality agreement with Licensee protecting the confidential and proprietary information of Licensee prior to engaging in any testing activities.

8.3 | Review of Marketing Materials Incorporating Licensed Marks. Goodyear may request Licensee to provide samples of all packaging, promotional materials, and advertisements associated with the Licensee-Made Licensed Products and containing any Licensed Mark and any other information or materials containing, displaying, or used in conjunction with the Licensed Marks for Goodyear ‘s inspection and approval. Such inspection shall be restricted solely to the use of the Licensed Marks.

8.4 | [Intentionally Omitted]

8.5 | Quality Maintenance/Inspection of Facilities. During the Term of this Agreement, to ensure that the quality of Licensee-Made Licensed Products is being maintained in accordance with this Agreement, Licensors or their authorized representatives shall have the right to enter and inspect the facilities of Licensee or its Affiliates during reasonable hours on three Business Days’ notice.

8.6 Substandard Quality.

(a) | If the quality of any particular Licensee-Made Licensed Product falls below the requisite quality level set forth in Section 8.1, Licensee shall, upon written notice from Goodyear, have 60 days to either (i) return the quality level of such Licensee-Made Licensed Product to the requisite quality level or (ii) provide Goodyear with a plan reasonably acceptable to Goodyear to return the quality level of such Licensee-Made Licensed Product to the requisite quality level. If Licensee fails to do either (i) or (ii) within the 60 day period, then Licensee shall immediately discontinue the production, sale, distribution and marketing of such Licensee-Made Licensed Product until such time the Licensee-Made Licensed Product is brought up to the quality standards described in Section 8.1.

(b) | Without limiting the requirements of Section 8.6(a), a particular Licensee-Made Licensed Product will be deemed to have fallen below the requisite quality level set forth in Section 8.1 if returns of such Licensee-Made Licensed Product due to substandard quality exceed *** of Licensee’s Net Sales of such Licensee-Made Licensed Product in any Contract Period (the “Return Rate”). Licensee shall promptly notify Goodyear in writing if returns of any Licensee-Made Licensed Product exceed the Return Rate.

8.7 | Disposal of Substandard Products. Licensee shall destroy, and upon Goodyear ‘s written request certify such destruction in writing, all substandard Licensee-Made Licensed Products that do not meet the quality levels described in this Article 8. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, with the prior written consent of Goodyear, Licensee instead may dispose of the substandard Licensee-Made Licensed Products at its own discretion as long as no use of or reference to the Licensed Marks is made in connection with such products. In such event, prior to disposal, Licensee must completely remove all labels, tags and marks that would identify any Licensor or any of the Licensed Marks from the substandard products to be disposed of.

8.8 | Customer and Consumer Inquiries. Licensee shall, at its sole cost, establish and maintain procedures satisfactory to Goodyear for the handling of all customer and consumer complaints about quality or product warranty issues, relating to any of the Licensee-Made Licensed Products (collectively “Customer Inquiries”). Licensors may forward to Licensee for handling any and all Customer Inquiries that they receive relating to the Licensee-Made Licensed Products. Licensee shall submit to Goodyear a written quarterly report summarizing all Customer Inquiries and the manner in which they were handled.

8.9 | Recalls. Licensee is solely responsible for ensuring Licensee-Made Licensed Products comply with all applicable standards of any Governmental Authority, including all costs and recall activities associated with Licensee-Made Licensed Products that do not conform to Governmental standards. In addition, Licensee shall notify Goodyear in writing immediately upon determining, or becoming aware of any Governmental Authority claiming, that any Licensee-Made Licensed Products fail to comply with any Law.

ARTICLE 9.
USE OF OTHER MARKS WITH THE LICENSED MARKS

9.1 | Use of Other Marks. Licensee may add the words “Made by Titan” to all molds bearing any of the Licensed Marks. Except for use of “Made by Titan” and the use of “Titan” as part of Licensee’s corporate name in conjunction with the sale of Licensed Products or as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Licensee shall not use any trademark, service mark, trade name, logo, symbol or device in combination with the Licensed Marks without the prior written consent of Goodyear, which consent may be withheld in Goodyear’s sole discretion, for any or no reason. Licensee shall not attempt to obtain or register the copyright or trademark in any artwork which contains or is derived from any of the Licensed Marks without the prior written consent of Goodyear (on behalf of the relevant Licensor), which consent may be withheld, in its sole discretion, for any or no reason. At Goodyear’s request, Licensee shall remove from any Licensed Product or associated materials bearing the Licensed Marks and under Licensee ‘s control or access, any element which Goodyear believes will harm, dilute or otherwise weaken the Licensed Marks or such Licensor ‘s reputation. Licensee shall not be required to remove any marks, or alter any Licensed Products or associated materials if such goods or materials have previously been consented to by Licensors, unless such Licensed Product or associated materials must be changed pursuant to any Law. Nothing herein is intended to prevent Licensee from complying with applicable Laws.

ARTICLE 10.
INDEMNIFICATION

10.1 | Indemnification of Licensors. Except as specifically provided in Section 10.2, Licensors assume no liability to Licensee or any third parties with respect to Licensee-Made Licensed Products, whether or not bearing a Licensed Mark. Licensee agrees to hold harmless, defend and indemnify Licensors and their respective Affiliates, officers, shareholders, employees and agents against third party claims, liabilities, demands, judgments or causes of action, and costs and expenses related thereto (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs), arising out of the manufacture, distribution, advertising, use, sale or marketing of the Licensee-Made Licensed Products, whether or not bearing a Licensed Mark, or the use of the Licensed Marks, by Licensee, provided that (a) prompt written notice is given to Licensee of any suit or claim of infringement, (b) Licensee shall have the option and right to undertake and conduct the defense of any such suits or claims brought against Licensor, and (c) no settlement of any suit or claim brought by a third-party with respect to Licensee’s use of the LicenseeMade Licensed Products is made or entered into without the prior express written consent of Licensee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

10.2 | Indemnification of Licensee. Goodyear agrees to hold harmless, defend and indemnify Licensee, its affiliates, officers, shareholders, employees and agents against third party

claims, liabilities, demands, judgments, or causes of action and costs and expenses related thereto (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) arising out of any third-party claim alleging trademark, trade dress or copyright infringement, or unfair competition, related to Licensee ‘s use of the Licensed Marks (except for the Unregistered Marks) as expressly authorized by this Agreement. This indemnification shall not apply to actions arising out of the unauthorized use of Licensed Marks, including the use of the Licensed Marks in territories that are not Licensed Territories for the products on which they are used or the application of the Licensed Marks to Licensed Products intended for sale within the Licensed Territory where application of the Licensed Marks is performed outside of the Licensed Territory.
ARTICLE 11.

11.1 | Licensors’ Right of Termination.

(a) | Unless otherwise provided herein, Goodyear, on behalf of the Licensors, shall have the right to terminate this Agreement if Licensee materially breaches this Agreement and Licensee fails to cure such breach or to adopt a plan reasonably designed to cure such breach within 60 days after receipt of written notice of such breach from Goodyear.

11.2 | Licensee’s Right of Termination.

During such sell-off period, Licensee shall be entitled to use the Licensed Marks as authorized by this Agreement in connection with the promotion, marketing, advertising, packaging, distribution and sale of Licensed Products. Licensee may not sell molds, plates, dies or the like bearing Licensed Marks to a third party absent the express written consent of Licensor. During the sell-off period, Licensee shall pay Earned Royalties on its sales of Licensed Products.

(c) | Upon termination of this Agreement by Goodyear, on behalf of Licensors, pursuant to Section 11.1(b), Licensee shall be entitled to a refund within 60 days of the Discontinuation Date of that portion of the Pre-Paid Royalty (including, without limitation, any Pre-Paid Royalty allocated to any royalties due under the Technology Agreement) determined by multiplying the Pre-Paid Royalty by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days remaining in the Initial Term following the Discontinuation Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the Initial Term.

11.4 | Duties Upon Expiration; Sell-off.

ARTICLE 12.
INJUNCTIVE AND OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF

12.1 | Injunctive Relief. It is expressly agreed that Licensors would suffer irreparable harm from a breach by Licensee of any of its covenants contained in this Agreement, and that remedies other than injunctive relief cannot fully compensate or adequately protect Licensors for or from such a violation. Therefore, without limiting the right of Licensors to pursue all other legal and equitable remedies available for violation of this Agreement, in the event of actual or threatened breach by Licensee of any of the provisions of this Agreement, Licensee agrees that Licensors shall be entitled to injunctive or other relief in order to enforce this Agreement or prevent any violation or continuing violation thereof without necessity of posting bond or other security, any requirements therefore being expressly waived by Licensee. Licensee agrees not to raise the defense of an adequate remedy at law in any such proceeding. Licensee acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of this Section are reasonably necessary and commensurate with the need to protect Licensors against irreparable harm and to protect their legitimate and proprietary business interests and property.

ARTICLE 13.
CONFIDENTIALITY

13.1 | Confidential Information.

(a) | During the term of this Agreement and for a period of seven years following the expiration or termination of this Agreement, the Parties agree not to disclose to others the subject matter of this Agreement (except to Licensee’s lenders or as required by the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission) or any Confidential Information of the other Party without the prior written consent of the other Party.

22
Portions of this exhibit were omitted and filed separately with the Secretary of the Commission pursuant to an application for confidential treatment filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 24b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such portions are marked by a series of asterisks.

(b) | Each of the Parties shall exercise care to prevent the disclosure of Confidential Information to any third party, using the same standard of care which it employs with its own confidential information of similar character. The Parties also shall limit internal dissemination of Confidential Information within their own organization in strict conformity with each Party’s established internal policies and procedures regarding the protection of confidential information. Each Party further agrees that it shall be liable to the other Party for unauthorized disclosures or use of Confidential Information of the other Party by any of its employees; provided, however, that the Parties shall not be liable to one another for disclosures or use of Confidential Information of the other Party by any employee of a Party who makes such disclosure or engages in such use more than ten years after the termination of the employee’s employment with such Party.

13.2 | Compelled Disclosures. If a Party believes that it is legally required to disclose any Confidential Information, that Party (the “Initial Party”) will promptly notify the other Party. Unless the other Party within 10 days of receipt of that notice gives notice to the Initial Party that the other Party intends to seek a protective order or act in some other way to prevent disclosure of the information in question, the Initial Party may disclose the information without a violation of this Agreement. After giving the notice referred to in the preceding sentence, the other Party must act promptly to contest the obligation of disclosure, notify the Initial Party of its actions and give the Initial Party notice if it does not successfully contest the obligation of disclosure in time to permit the Initial Party to disclose the information without violation of Law or contempt of any Governmental Authority. If compelled to disclose any Confidential Information, the Initial Party will disclose only such Confidential Information as to which disclosure is required and will use all commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Confidential Information required to be disclosed is accorded confidential treatment by the person, entity or Governmental Authority to whom or to which such Confidential Information is disclosed.

13.3 | Rights to Documents. Each Party acknowledges that all documents and digital materials setting forth any Confidential Information of the other Party will be and remain the property of the other Party.

13.4 | Public Announcements. Subject to the terms of, and in addition to the requirements imposed by, the Confidentiality Agreement, the Parties shall:

(a) | consult with each other prior to issuing any other press release or any written public statement with respect to this Agreement or any of the Related Agreements or the contemplated transactions; and

(b) | not issue any such press release or written public statement prior to review and approval by the other Party; provided, however, that prior review and approval shall not be required if (i) in the reasonable judgment of the Party seeking to issue such release or public statement, prior review and approval would prevent the timely dissemination of such release or announcement in violation of any applicable Law or any rule, regulation or policy of any securities exchange on
