Gentlepersons:
On behalf of Invicta Watch Company of America, Inc., a Florida corporation (“IWCA”), IWCA has read and is familiar with the terms and provisions of (a) that certain Vendor Agreement (the “Vendor Agreement”) between Sterling Time, LLC, a New York limited liability company (“Vendor”), and Evine Live Inc., a Minnesota corporation (“Company”), concerning the merchandising of products bearing IWCA’s brands and trademarks and (b) that certain Vendor Exclusivity Agreement (the “Exclusivity Agreement” and collectively with the Vendor Agreement, the “Agreements”) between Vendor and Company concerning exclusivity regarding the merchandising of products bearing IWCA’s brands and trademarks.
As an inducement to Company’s entering that certain Common Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) between certain owners of IWCA, other purchasers and Company dated on or about the date hereof and as a material part of the consideration provided to Company for so doing (including the special rights granted to IWCA’s owners), IWCA hereby represents, warrants, and agrees as follows:
(1) IWCA has heretofore entered into an agreement with Vendor granting Vendor the exclusive right to use and sublicense to Company the Trademarks (as defined in the Vendor Agreement) (the “Trademarks”), for a period of time sufficient to meet Vendor’s obligations under the Vendor Agreement.
(2) Vendor has the right and authority to grant Company the particular exclusive rights specified in the Agreements to use the Trademarks and merchandise IWCA-branded products and has not and will not grant any other party rights to use the Trademarks as set forth under the Agreements during the Term (as defined in the Vendor Agreement).
(3) IWCA will ensure that a steady stream of products bearing the IWCA brands, including first-to-market and exclusive products, is available for Company’s purchase throughout the term specified in the Agreements.
(4) IWCA will not grant any party other than Vendor or Company the right to use the Trademarks or sell the Products (as defined in the Exclusivity Agreement) or any goods or services that are substantially similar to or directly competitive with the Products bearing the Trademarks in TV Shopping (as defined in the Exclusivity Agreement).
(5) IWCA will not grant any party other than Vendor or Company the right to undertake any of the actions set forth in Section 3 of the Exclusivity Agreement.
(6) Without limiting the foregoing, IWCA agrees to invest at least $25 million in the development and production of new products bearing the IWCA brands for offer to Company through Vendor for the fall merchandising season of 2019.
If, during the term of the Agreements, any of the above representations concerning Vendor is or becomes untrue, and/or Vendor is unable or unwilling to fulfill its obligations to Company under the Agreements, IWCA will take all necessary steps to ensure that Company’s rights under the Agreements are not compromised.
