and revocable license to use Licensor’s trademarks in connection with
certain goods, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as
follows:
Grant of License (SECTION 1)
A. That, the Licensor hereby grants to Licensee a limited, exclusive, non-
transferable, nonassignable and revocable right and license to use only
those trademarks (“Trademarks”) as set forth on Exhibit A, solely for
and in connection with the manufacture, promotion, sale and
distribution of the licensed product(s) (the “Licensed Product(s)”) in the
quantities and in the “Territory” as set forth on Exhibit B to this
Agreement. Licensee shall not have the right to sublicense the rights to
any other party, granted herein. Licensee may use the Trademarks on or
in connection with the Licensed Products and may be co-branded with
trademarks not owned by Licensor, but in each case only with
Licensor’s prior written approval. Licensor reserves all rights not
expressly granted herein.
B. That, the parties acknowledge and agree that state and federal franchise
laws do not and will not apply to this Agreement or to the relationship
between Licensee and Licensor and their respective rights and
obligations hereunder since the parties agree that, due to their
respective business backgrounds and prior licensing experience, they do
not need the protection of state or federal franchise laws.
Royalty (SECTION 2), in consideration for the license granted hereunder,
Licensee shall pay to Licensor, the following:
A. Up-Front Fee; Minimum Royalty: that, on signing of this Agreement,
Licensee shall pay to Licensor a non-refundable, one-time licensee fee
in the amount set forth on Exhibit B to this Agreement, if any. Licensee
agrees to pay Licensor a guaranteed minimum royalty in the amount set
forth on Exhibit B, if any.
B. Royalty on Gross Sales:that, Licensee shall pay to Licensor a
continuing royalty, in respect to each of the Licensed Products in
amounts calculated by multiplying the royalty rates set forth on Exhibit
B and the “Gross Selling Price” of all Licensed Products, respectively,
sold or otherwise disposed of by Licensee under this Agreement. The
“Gross Selling Price” shall mean the gross selling price invoiced or
charged to others by Licensee for all Licensed Products sold,
distributed or transferred, reduced by the amount of actual returns only.
It is understood that credit against sales shall be allowed only for actual
returns and that no credit against sales shall be allowed on the basis of
an accrual or reserve system. No deduction shall be made for cash,
trade discounts, or other discounts, promotional allowances or
uncollectible accounts. Licensed Products are considered sold on the
date on which such Licensed Products are billed, invoiced, distributed,
shipped, and/or paid for, whichever occurs first. No costs incurred in
the manufacture, sale, distribution, advertisement or promotion of the
Licensed Products or in the payment by Licensee of any local, state or
federal taxes of any nature whatsoever shall be deducted from the gross
sales amounts or from any royalty payable to Licensor by Licensee.
Licensee shall further pay and hold Licensor forever harmless from all
taxes, customs, duties, levies, import or any other charges now or
hereafter imposed or based upon the manufacture, sale, distribution,
advertisement or promotion by Licensee
of the Licensed Products (including, but not limited to sales, use,
inventory, income, and value added taxes on sales of the Licensed
Products), which charges shall not be deducted from the royalties
payable to Licensor. Any sales or transfers of Licensed Products made
by Licensee to any person or entity that does not deal at arm’s length
with Licensee shall be computed, for the purpose of determining Gross
Selling Price, at an amount equal to the regular sales price at which
Licensee would have invoiced or charged purchasers which deal at
arm’s length with Licensee.
C. Payment and Reports:that, all guaranteed minimum royalties shall be
due and payable as set forth on Exhibit B. Any additional Royalties
earned for the twelve month period beginning May 1, 2021 and ending
April, 2021, less the guaranteed minimum royalties previously paid,
shall be due and payable on March 31, 2021. Licensee shall provide to
Licensor a written royalty report on a monthly basis, certified under
penalty of perjury by Licensee to be correct, identifying the Licensed
Products (on a style-by-style basis) sold and the prices received
therefore, the stock number and descriptions, unit sales price, the
quantity returned, and the Gross Selling Price of the Licensed Products
sold. Licensee shall also provide theforegoing information in an
electronic spreadsheet. If a currency exchange rate is necessary to
calculate royalties, Licensee shall use the closing rate of exchange on
the last business day of the applicable quarterly accounting period.
D. Royalty Payment Address:that, all payments and statements shall be
sent to Licensor at its address sent forth in Section 12(c). Licensee
hereby agrees that this Agreement shall also serve as an invoice with
respect to the amounts payable hereunder.
E. Late Charges:that, in the event Licensee shall fail to pay any sum
required under this Agreement on or before ten (10) calendar days
following the due date thereof, the amount owed shall be charged a late
fee in the amount of one percent (1.0%) per month of the amount past
due from the due date until paid.
F. Unauthorized Manufacture, Sales, or Distribution: that, if Licensee
manufactures, sells, or distributes any products in violation of this
Agreement’s terms — including, but not limited to, by selling products
not authorized or approved by Licensor, outside the Territory, or in
quantities in excess of those set forth in Exhibit B — Licensee shall pay
Licensor’s actual damages as a result of such breach or, at Licensor’s
election, the royalty amounts set forth on Exhibit B shall double for
each product sold that was not authorized or approved by Licensor,
sold outside the Territory, or in quantities in excess of those set forth in
Exhibit B. The double royalty is agreed upon a compensation for the
injury suffered by Licensor and not as a penalty. The parties agree that
this clause does not limit any other remedies that Licensor may pursue
for any breach of the Agreement.
Audits (SECTION 3)
That, at least once in any twelve (12) month period, Licensor may require
Licensee to furnish to Licensor a detailed audit statement prepared by an
independent certified public accountant listing, at a minimum, the stock (or
style) number, description, unit sales price, gross sales price, the quantity
returned, and Gross Selling Price of Licensed Products (on a SKU-bySKU
basis) distributed or sold by Licensee up to the date of Licensor’s demand
and/or for the audit period as prescribed by Licensor. If such statement
disclosed no deficit in the payment of royalties or a deficit less than five
percent (5%) of royalties paid during the audit period, the cost of
examination shall be borne by Licensor. If any deficit is equal to or greater
than five percent (5%) of royalties paid during the audit period, the cost of
such examination shall be borne by Licensee. If any deficit is identified,
Licensee must immediately tender such amount to Licensor with the late
charge as provided in Section 2(f) above. If such deficit for such audit
period is more than ten percent (10%) in book inventory versus physical
inventory, Licensee shall be required to pay a royalty at the appropriate rate
in respect to each of the missing Licensed Products.

stages of development and production.
C. That, at no cost to Licensor, Licensee shall furnish to Licensor,
proposed designs, preproduction samples, production samples and
revised production samples (if any) of the Licensed Products and all

Licensor, without charge, ten (10) promotional samples, for
promotional purposes and not for resale by Licensor. Licensee shall not
produce any samples featuring the Trademarks until Licensor has given
Licensee written approval for such production.
D. That, the Licensee shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to
comply with and adhere to Licensor’s mandatory “Official Licensed
Product” identification tracking, identification and anti-counterfeiting
systems, tags and labels that Licensor may establish from time to time,
which may include the obligation, at Licensee’s sole expense, to use
product authentication hang tags or stickers which must at all times
comply with specific criteria determined by Licensor or to purchase
such hang tags or stickers from a third party designated by Licensor
from time to time, and to affix such hang tags or stickers on each
Licensed Product before sale or distribution. Licensee shall at all times
conduct all aspects of its business in compliance with all shipment
tracking, identification and anticounterfeiting systems, tag and labeling
requirements that Licensor may establish from time to time. Licensee
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that all retailers and
authorized distributors purchasing the Licensed Products comply with
Licensor’s anti-counterfeiting systems, tags and labeling requirements
established from time to time.
E. That, the Licensee shall insure that the Licensed Products and the
Collateral Materials shall equal or exceed and comply with all industry
and governmental standards established in respect of safety and fitness
for use, including, but not limited to the Consumer Protection Act, 1987
the Environment Protection Act, 1986 and all appropriate sections of
the Indian Penal Code, 1860 as well as any and all applicable standards
of the European Community, if applicable in each such instance.
F. That, in the event that: (i) the quality, appearance or style of any
Licensed Product ceases to be acceptable to Licensor; (ii) Licensee uses
Licensor’s Trademarks or copyrighted materials improperly; or (iii) any
element of any Licensed Product or its Collateral Materials reflects
unfavorably on the professional, business or personal reputation of
Licensor, then, in any such event, Licensor shall have the right, in its
sole and absolute discretion, to revoke its approval of such Licensed
Product. In the event of such revocation, Licensor shall provide
immediate written notice to Licensee and Licensee shall cease the
manufacture, sale and distribution of such Licensed Product and such
Licensed Product shall immediately be withdrawn from the market and
destroyed. Within ten (10) calendar days after Licensee’s receipt of
such notice, Licensee shall pay all royalty payments due Licensor with
respect to such Licensed Product for which approval has be revoked. If
there are other Licensed Products for which approval has not been
revoked, then this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as to
such other Licensed Products. Licensee shall notify Licensor in writing
of any Licensed Products removed from manufacture, sale or
distribution at any time during the Term.
G. That, in the event Licensee utilizes photographs, artwork, or any other
copyrighted or trademarked materials(“Third Party Materials”) on or in
connection with the Licensed Products, then Licensee shall be solely
responsible for obtaining any and all consents, licenses and other
permissions which may be required for using such Third Party
Materials. Accordingly, Licensee acknowledges and agrees that
Licensee’s use of any Third Party Materials is subject to and
