to the extent practical, shall place the symbols “®”, “™” or “℠”, as applicable, or other designations legally required or useful for enforcement of trademark or service mark rights, next to the Licensed Marks consistent with the same manner in which Licensor and its Affiliates use such symbols or other designations.
6.FEES AND PAYMENT
6.1 Royalties. Licensee shall pay to Licensor a royalty of three percent (3%) on all Net Sales of products and services sold through the Licensed Stores and Shop-within-a-Shops (inclusive of buy-online-pay-in-store (BOPIS) amounts generated from Licensor e-commerce websites), which shall increase to five percent (5%) upon any expiration or termination of the Collaboration Agreement, less the amount of Guaranteed Minimum Royalty paid with respect to such period (the “Sales Royalty”).
6.2 Guaranteed Minimum Royalty. Commencing upon the opening of the first licensed Neighborhood Format location, Licensee shall pay to Licensor a “Guaranteed Minimum Royalty” of Sales Royalties, in the aggregate, equal to (a) two-hundred thousand dollars ($200,000) over the first twenty-four (24) months of the term of this Agreement (payable in monthly installments) and (b) three-hundred thousand dollars ($300,000) per Annual Period (twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) payable per month) thereafter, pro-rated for any partial Annual Period.
6.3 Net Sales. As used herein, “Net Sales” means mean the gross sales (the gross invoice amount billed customers) of products and services (including sales of warranty policies, insurance and other similar products and services) based on the invoiced price to such customers by or on behalf of Licensee, less only the following actual and allowable deductions: (a) returns

5

(or destruction in place) that Licensee actually authorizes and, for returns, Licensee actually receives, (b) allowances (defined as credits to a customer after delivery, including credits for returns, promotions and markdowns), (c) trade discounts (defined as reductions in the list wholesale selling price that are customary in the trade) that Licensee actually grants in writing prior to delivery, and (d) sales tax (but only to the extent the same appear separately on Licensee’s invoice), provided that “Net Sales” shall include any products shipped to a customer in exchange for returned products. No deduction shall be made for any other discounts, uncollected accounts, commissions, levies, duties, or for the cost of any expenses, direct or indirect, incurred in operating or selling products or services through the Licensed Stores and Shop-within-a-Shops. “Net Sales” also includes insurance proceeds received by Licensee in respect of products and services sold through the Licensed Stores and Shop-within-a-Shops, but only to the extent that such insurance proceeds paid with respect to any such products exceed Licensee’s cost incurred for such products and services. In all events, the total of any and all deductions taken by Licensee pursuant to this Section in calculating “Net Sales” shall not exceed the actual amount of all allowable deductions or six percent (6%) of the total amount of gross sales, whichever amount is less, during any Annual Period.
6.4 Payment. The Guaranteed Minimum Royalty for each month during an Annual Period shall be paid within thirty (30) days after the end of such month during the term of this Agreement (or portion thereof in the event of prior termination for any reason). The Sales Royalty hereunder shall be accounted for and paid monthly within thirty (30) days after the close of each month during the term of this Agreement (or portion thereof in the event of prior termination for any reason). The Sales Royalty payable for each month shall be computed on the basis of Net Sales during such month, and shall be reduced by the amount of the Guaranteed Minimum Royalty paid for such month. All payments to Licensor under this Agreement shall be paid in U.S. Dollars, by wire transfer in accordance with the wire instructions provided by Licensor. Wire transfer fees as well as all other bank fees related to any payments required of Licensee under this Agreement shall be the sole expense of Licensee, so that Licensor shall receive the full amount of all payments without reduction.
6.5 Taxes. All payments made by the Licensee under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, turnover, sales, value added stamp or other taxes, government withholding tax, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (individually or collectively, “Taxes”), now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any tax or other governmental authority. In the event that any Taxes are now or hereafter required to be imposed, levied, collected, withheld, paid and/or assessed under applicable law from, or in respect of, any amount otherwise payable to the Licensor hereunder, then (x) the Licensee shall pay over to the relevant governmental authority the amount of such Taxes required to be paid by it under applicable law,
(y) the Licensee shall deliver to the Licensor as soon as practicable after the Licensee’s payment of such Taxes a certified copy of a receipt issued by the relevant governmental authority evidencing such payment or such other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Licensor, and (z) the amount so payable by the Licensee to the Licensor shall be increased and grossed-up to the extent necessary to yield to the Licensor the amount specified in the Agreement as being payable to the Licensor had such Taxes not been imposed, levied, collected, withheld, paid and/or assessed (including with respect to any increased and gross-up amounts). To the extent any such Taxes are paid or payable by the Licensor, a certificate delivered to the Licensee by the

6

Licensor as to the amount of such Taxes shall be conclusive absent manifest error and the Licensee shall pay to the Licensor the required grossed-up amount within 10 days after the Licensor’s deliver of such certificate.
6.6 Late Payments. Licensee shall pay interest on any amounts owed but not paid by the applicable due date at a rate equivalent to the applicable Prime Rate (as defined in the Collaboration Agreement) per annum from the date such payment was due (but not more than the maximum rate of interest which legally can be paid).
6.7 Sales Statement.
(a)Licensee shall deliver to Licensor at the time each Sales Royalty payment is due, a statement signed by a duly authorized officer of Licensee and certified by him or her as accurate indicating per Licensed Store and Shop-within-a-Shop: (a) by product category, by style number, by customer and in the aggregate, the number and aggregate invoice price of all products and services sold through the Licensed Stores and Shop-within-a-Shops during the period covered by such Sales Royalty payment and the amount of discounts, allowances, returns and any other deductions from gross sales, (b) a separate list of all SKUs of Licensor Products actually sold during the reporting period, (c) the amount of any insurance proceeds received by Licensee in respect of products and services during said period, and setting forth a computation of the amount of Sales Royalty payable hereunder for said period (“Sales Statement”). The reporting period for each Sales Statement shall be the prior calendar month, and the format of the Sales Statement shall be mutually agreed upon by the Parties. Such statement shall be furnished to Licensor whether or not any products or services have been purchased during the reporting period for which such statement is due. A copy of the foregoing reports shall be sent to Licensor in Excel format.
(b)In addition to the Sales Statement for the final calendar month of each Annual Period, Licensee shall deliver to Licensor, not later than sixty (60) days after the close of each Annual Period (or portion thereof in the event of prior termination for any reason), a statement signed and certified by its chief executive or financial officer relating to said entire Annual Period, setting forth the same information required to be submitted by Licensee in accordance with Section 6.7(a).
7.BOOKS AND RECORDS; AUDITS.
(a)Licensee shall prepare and maintain, in such manner as will allow its accountants to audit same in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, separate, complete and accurate books of account and records (specifically including the originals or copies of documents supporting entries in the books of account) covering all transactions arising out of or relating to this Agreement. Licensor and its duly authorized representatives, may, during regular business hours at times agreed upon by the Parties and with at least thirty (30) days prior written notice, for the duration of this Agreement and for three (3) years thereafter, audit said books of account and records and examine all other documents and material in the possession or under the control of Licensee as necessary to verify Licensee’s compliance with its obligations under this Agreement; and Licensor shall have free and full access thereto for said purposes and for the purpose of making abstracts therefrom and copies thereof. All copies and information accessed, produced or obtained in connection with such audit is the Confidential Information of Licensee and shall be protected as such under Section 4 of the Collaboration Agreement. Any such audit

7

commenced within such period may continue through completion in the ordinary course; provided, that such audit is conducted in a manner designed to minimize disruption to Licensee’s business. All such books of account, records and documents, including computer records, shall be kept available by Licensee for at least three (3) years (or such longer period as required by law) after the end of the term of this Agreement and through the completion of any audit commenced prior to the end of such period.
(b)If any examination or audit discloses that the payments required to be made under this Agreement exceeded the payments actually made (each a “Shortfall”), Licensee shall pay the Shortfall together with interest on the Shortfall at a rate equivalent to the applicable Prime Rate (as defined in the Collaboration Agreement) per annum from the date such payment was due (but not more than the maximum rate of interest which legally can be paid). In addition, if any examination or audit discloses that the Shortfall exceeds four percent (4%) for any calendar month, Licensee shall also pay the cost of such examination or audit in addition to the Shortfall and interest. All payments due pursuant to this Section 7(b) shall be made within fifteen (15) days after Licensee receives notice thereof.

This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the conflict of law provisions of Delaware, and any action or proceeding arising out of, or related to, this Agreement, shall only be brought in an appropriate state or federal court in Delaware. The Parties expressly consent to venue in Delaware and to the personal jurisdiction of the Delaware courts.

14.5 Waiver. Failure of either Party to enforce or exercise any of its rights with respect to any provisions hereof against the other Party shall not constitute a waiver thereof nor shall it in any way affect the validity of this Agreement or act as a bar to such Party’s subsequent enforcement or exercise of any right created hereby. The exercise or enforcement by either Party of any of its rights hereunder shall not preclude or prejudice such Party from thereafter exercising the same or any other right which it may have under this Agreement.

All words used in this Agreement will be construed to be of such gender or number as the context requires.

All references to dollars or “$” in this Agreement will be to U.S. dollars. The language used in this Agreement will be construed, in all cases, according to its fair meaning, and not for or against either Party hereto. The Parties acknowledge that each Party has reviewed this Agreement and that rules of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting Party will not be available in the interpretation of this Agreement.
14.7 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement is entered into solely between, and may be enforced only by, the Parties and their permitted successors and assigns, and except as expressly set forth herein, this Agreement shall not be deemed to create any rights in third parties, including, without limitation, suppliers and customers of a Party, or to create any obligations of a Party to any such third parties.
14.8 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, inoperative, or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected by such determination, and the remainder of this Agreement shall be given effect as if the invalid, inoperative, or unenforceable provision had not been included in this Agreement.
14.9 Equitable Relief; Cumulative Remedies. Licensee acknowledges that a breach of this Agreement by Licensee may cause Licensor irreparable damages, for which an award of damages would not be adequate compensation. In the event of such breach or threatened breach, Licensor will be entitled to seek equitable relief against Licensee without the obligation to post a bond or other security. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the right and remedies

under this Agreement are cumulative and in addition to any other rights or remedies available at law or in equity or otherwise.
