(ii) Following the Closing, Tandy shall pay the Earn-Out Monthly Payments which are due as provided in Section 3.1(d) below by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

(iv) Tandy shall at all times maintain complete, true and correct books of account in accordance with GAAP for the sale of Products during the Earn-Out Measurement Period and the matters contemplated by Section 3.1(d)(ii), which books of account shall be in sufficient detail to enable the Earn-Out Amount and Earn-Out Monthly Payments to be readily computed and verified, including all information pertaining to the Net Sales of Products. Tandy shall permit Xxxxxxxx, its agents and/or independent public accountants, to inspect and audit Tandy’s books and records relating to Net Sales of Products during the Earn-Out Measurement Period (including the right to make copies thereof) during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice to Tandy.

Tandy’s determination of Net Sales and the Earn-Out Amount and the Earn-Out Monthly Payments, if any, for any Earn-Out Measurement Period shall be conclusive and binding on the Parties hereto unless, within 60 days following the delivery of the final Earn-Out

Monthly Payment and Earn-Out Monthly Certificate, Xxxxxxxx notifies Tandy in writing that it disagrees with Tandy’s calculation of Net Sales of the Products and the Earn-Out Amount.

If, in the 15 days following delivery of Xxxxxxxx’ notice of dispute, Tandy and Xxxxxxxx cannot reach an agreement on the Earn-Out Amount, all such disagreements shall be resolved in accordance with Section 3.1(e).

(a) If any Xxxxxxxx Indemnitee or Tandy Indemnitee (each, an “Indemnified Party”) believes that it has suffered or incurred or will suffer or incur any Losses for which it is entitled to indemnification under this Article IX, such Indemnified Party shall so notify the Party or Parties from whom indemnification is being claimed (the “Indemnifying Party”) with reasonable promptness and reasonable particularity in light of the circumstances then existing. If any action at law or suit in equity is instituted by or against a third party with respect to which any Indemnified Party intends to claim any Losses, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of such action or suit. The failure of an Indemnified Party to give any notice required by this Section shall not affect any of such Party’s rights under this Article IX or otherwise except and to the extent that such failure is actually prejudicial to the rights or obligations of the Indemnified Party.

(b) Upon being given notice of any third party claim against an Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right upon written notice to the Indemnified Party to assume the defense and conduct and control, through counsel of its choosing, of such third party claim, action or suit contemplated by Section 9.2(b) or 9.3(b), as applicable. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate in all reasonable respects with the Indemnifying Party and its attorneys in the investigation, trial and defense of the third party claim and any appeal arising therefrom. Upon assuming the defense of a third party claim, the Indemnifying Party may compromise or settle the same, provided either that (i) the settlement shall include as an unconditional term thereof the giving of a complete release from liability with respect to such action or suit to the Indemnified Party or (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall give the Indemnified Party advance notice of any proposed compromise or settlement and the Indemnified Party shall have consented in advance in writing to the proposed compromise or settlement (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). The Indemnifying Party shall permit the Indemnified Party to participate in the defense of any such action or suit through counsel chosen by the Indemnified Party, provided that the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes to conduct and control the conduct and settlement of such action or suit, the Indemnifying Party shall not thereby permit to exist any Encumbrance upon any asset of the Indemnified Party as a result of the claim being indemnified. The Indemnifying Party shall permit the Indemnified Party to participate in any settlement negotiations through counsel chosen by the Indemnified Party (at its own cost and expense).

-25-

If an Indemnifying Party fails to assume the defense of a third party claim within fifteen (15) calendar days after receipt of the notice of the third party claim as provided above, the Indemnified Party against which such third party claim has been asserted will upon delivering notice to such effect to the Indemnifying Party have the right to undertake, at the Indemnified Party’s cost, risk and expense, the defense, compromise or settlement of such Third Party Claim on behalf of and for the account and risk of Indemnifying Parties; provided, however, that such third party claim shall not be compromised or settled without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). If the Indemnified Party assumes the defense of the third party claim, the Indemnified Party will keep the Indemnifying Party reasonably informed of the progress of any such defense, compromise or settlement of any action effected pursuant to and in accordance herewith.

Section 9.5 Limitations on Indemnification Rights.

(a) Threshold Amount. An Indemnifying Party under this Article IX shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for Losses associated with misrepresentations or breaches of warranties which do not result in Losses that do not exceed $50,000 in the aggregate; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that this limitation shall not apply with respect to the indemnification otherwise due for any claims brought by a third party.

(b) Maximum Amount. Notwithstanding anything herein, the maximum liability of Xxxxxxxx under this Article IX based on or relating to any breach or alleged breach of any representation or warranty shall be an amount equal to the Purchase Price, excluding, however the Earn-Out Amount.

(c) Time Period. The indemnification provisions under this Article IX (other than those based solely on a breach of a covenant) shall continue for one year from the Closing Date and shall terminate upon expiration of such period. Any claim or demand made under Section 9.2 against Xxxxxxxx or Section 9.3 against Tandy of which notice has been given in good faith pursuant to Section 9.4 at or prior to the expiration of the one year period shall continue to be subject to indemnification hereunder notwithstanding the expiration of such period.

Section 9.6 Exclusivity.

(a) The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that as of and after the Closing, their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than those based on a breach of a covenant) shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article IX. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Parties hereby waive (other than with respect to a breach of a covenant), to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action it may have against the other arising under or based upon any federal, state or local statute, law ordinance, rule or regulation (including any such rights, claims or causes of action arising under or based upon common law or otherwise) with respect to all such claims. Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Article IX, neither party shall be entitled to indirect or consequential damages hereunder.

-26-

(b) For avoidance of doubt, Tandy acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing exclusivity provisions and limitations shall not apply in any respect to its covenants and undertakings in Section 3.1.

Section 9.7 Limited Right of Set-Off.

(a) The Parties agree and acknowledge that Tandy shall have the right in accordance with the terms of this Section 9.7 to set-off any Losses claimed by a Xxxxxxxx Indemnitee pursuant to this Article IX or any payments by Tandy pursuant to and as required by the Tandy Remaining Royalty Obligation Guaranty against all or any portion of the Earn-Out Monthly Payments or the Earn-Out Amount which may be payable pursuant to this Agreement if and only if, and to the extent (in terms of dollars) that:

(i) Xxxxxxxx has failed to make all or any portion of a Remaining Quarterly Royalty Obligation (a “Royalty Default”) when due (unless and except to the extent the amount thereof is disputed in good faith by Xxxxxxxx in accordance with the terms of the Wrangler Mass License or the Wrangler Amendment and Assignment relating to the Wrangler Mass License) and Tandy has made a payment with respect thereto under the Tandy Remaining Royalty Obligation Guaranty, provided that written notice of such Royalty Default together with evidence of Tandy’s payment thereof is delivered to Xxxxxxxx and Xxxxxxxx has not reimbursed Tandy therefore within two (2) business days following the date of such notice;

(ii) Xxxxxxxx and Xxxxx have entered into a binding written agreement setting forth an agreed upon amount with respect to Losses to be paid by Xxxxxxxx to Tandy pursuant to Article IX; or

(iii) a final, non-appealable judgment is entered against Xxxxxxxx based on an order of a Court which has jurisdiction with respect to such matter pursuant to Section 11.8 which requires payment of Losses from Xxxxxxxx to Tandy pursuant to a claim under Article IX.

(b) Tandy expressly agrees and acknowledges that it shall not be entitled to withhold from any Earn Out Payment any Losses or other amounts alleged to be due and owing based thereon, whether set forth in an indemnification notice or otherwise, other than with respect to Losses described in Section 9.7(a)(i), (ii) or (iii). If any portion of an Earn-Out Payment is withheld on the basis of an unresolved claim under Article IX or any other provision of this Agreement or any other instrument, agreement or document executed and delivered in connection herewith or based on a claim at common law, such withholding shall constitute an Earn-Out Default and Xxxxxxxx shall have its rights and remedies with respect thereto as any other rights and remedies which may be available as a result thereof.

(b) by either Party if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before July 10, 2009 (unless the failure to so consummate the Closing by such date shall be due to the action or failure to act of the Party seeking to terminate this Agreement, which action or failure to act constitutes a breach of this Agreement);

(c) by Tandy if (i) there has been a material breach on the part of Xxxxxxxx in the representations, warranties or covenants of Xxxxxxxx set forth herein, or (ii) any failure on the part of Xxxxxxxx to comply with its obligations hereunder, such that, in any such case, any of the conditions to the Closing set forth in Section 7.1 hereof could not be satisfied on or prior to July 6, 2009, provided Tandy first gives Xxxxxxxx written notice thereof and such material breach or failure of performance is not cured within 10 days thereafter; or

(d) by Xxxxxxxx if (i) there has been a material breach on the part of Tandy in the representations, warranties or covenants of Tandy set forth herein, or (ii) any failure on the part of Tandy to comply with its obligations hereunder, such that, in any such case, any of the conditions to the Closing set forth in Section 7.2 hereof could not be satisfied on or prior to July 6, 2009, provided Xxxxxxxx first gives Tandy written notice thereof and such material breach or failure of performance is not cured within 10 days thereafter.

Section 11.4 Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to Sections, such reference shall be to a Section of this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The phrases “the date of this Agreement,” “the date hereof” and terms of similar import, unless the context otherwise requires, shall be deemed to refer to the date first set forth in the beginning of this Agreement. The Parties have been represented by counsel who have carefully negotiated the provisions hereof. As a consequence, the Parties do not intend that the presumptions of any laws or rules relating to the interpretation of contracts against the drafter of any particular clause should be applied to this Agreement and therefore waive their effects.

This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Section 11.6 Entire Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement (including the documents and the instruments referred to herein) together with the Wrangler Amendment and Assignments (a) constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and (b) is not intended to confer upon any person other than the Parties hereto and thereto any rights or remedies hereunder or thereunder.

Section 11.7 Governing Law. This Agreement has been executed and delivered in the State of Delaware and shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to any applicable conflicts of law principles.

Each of the Parties submits to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court located in the State of Delaware, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement (including any action or proceeding for the enforcement of any arbitration award made in connection with any arbitration of a dispute hereunder) and agrees that all claims in respect of the action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court. Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.1(e), each Party further agrees not to bring any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other court. Each of the Parties waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any action or proceeding so brought and waives any bond, surety, or other security that might be required of any other Party with respect thereto. Any Party may make service on any other Party by sending or delivering a copy of the process to the Party to be served at the address and in the manner provided for the giving of notices in Section 11.3 above. Nothing in this Section, however, shall affect the right of any Party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or at equity. Each Party agrees that a final judgment in any action or proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law or at equity. All proceedings under this Section 11.8, and all evidence given or discovered pursuant hereto, shall be maintained in confidence by all parties and the arbitrators.

Section 11.9 Publicity.
