in Location Riders attached ("Designated Locations(s)").
1.2 Scope of License/Restrictions.
Licensee shall use the Designated Locations only
for the purposes authorized in this Agreement, and shall offer

whatsoever as to the potential amount of business Licensee can
expect at any time during operation of the Licensed Business.
Licensee is solely responsible for any expenses it incurs
related to this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any

the name SEARS PORTRAIT STUDIO. Licensee shall use the name of

written approval by Sears Licensing Manager. Licensee may use
the name Sears when communicating with customers or potential
customers of the Licensed Business, or to identify the location
of the Licensed Business and in approved advertising.
2.2 Communications with Third Parties.
Except in the case of communication permitted by
Section 2.1, or as otherwise specifically approved by Sears,
Licensee shall not use the name of Sears, or any Sears
trademarks, service marks or trade names (the "Xxxx(s)"),
either orally or in writing, including, but not limited to, use
on any letterhead, checks, business cards, or contracts. All
communications with persons or entities other than customers or
potential customers of the Licensed Business shall be done
solely in Licensee's own name.
2.3 No Challenge to Marks.
Licensee shall not question, contest or challenge,
either during or after the Term of this Agreement, Sears
ownership of the Marks, or Sears ownership in any mailing
lists, credit files or other factual information compiled by
Sears and made available for use by Licensee ("Sears
Information"). Licensee shall claim no right, title or
interest in any Xxxx or Sears Information, except the right to
use the same pursuant to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, and shall not register or attempt to register any
Xxxx.
2.4 No Rights to Marks.
Licensee recognizes and acknowledges that the use
of any Xxxx or Sears Information shall not confer upon Licensee
any proprietary rights to any Xxxx or Sears Information. Upon

immediately stop using all Marks and Sears Information, and
shall execute all documents Sears requests in order to confirm
Sears ownership, or to transfer to Sears any rights Licensee
may have acquired from Sears, in any Xxxx or Sears Information.
Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to bar Sears,
during or after the Term of this Agreement, from protecting its
right to the exclusive ownership of Sears Information or Marks
against infringement or appropriation by any party or parties,
including Licensee.
2.5 Registration of Marks.
Sears may register in its own name any and all of
the trademarks, service marks or trade names used in operation

conjunction with the Licensed Business shall be used for any
other purpose without the written consent of Sears.
2.6 Injunctive Relief.
Licensee acknowledges that the Marks and Sears
Information possess a special, unique and extraordinary
character, which makes it difficult to assess the monetary
damage Sears would sustain in the event of unauthorized use.
Irreparable injury would be caused to Sears by such
unauthorized use, and Licensee agrees that in the event of
breach of this Section II by Licensee there would be no
adequate remedy at law and preliminary or permanent injunctive
relief would be appropriate.

any third party of products and/or services similar to those
offered by Licensee that would be confusingly similar in
the minds of the public to those sold by Licensee and which
bear or are promoted in association with the Marks or any
names, symbols, emblems, designs or colors which would be
confusingly similar in the minds of the public to the Marks,
Licensee shall promptly notify Sears. Sears may, at its sole
expense, take such action as it determines, in its sole
discretion, is appropriate. Licensee shall cooperate and
assist in such protest or legal action at Sears expense. If
demanded by Sears, Licensee shall join in such protest or
legal action at Sears expense. Licensee shall not undertake
any protest or legal action on its own behalf without first
securing Sears written permission to do so. If Sears permits
Licensee to undertake such protest or legal action, such
protest or legal action shall be at Licensee's sole expense.
Sears shall cooperate and assist Licensee at Licensee's
expense. For the purposes of this section, expenses shall
include reasonable attorneys' fees. All recovery in the form
of legal damages or settlement shall belong to the party
bearing the expense of such protest or legal action.

amount of such expenses with interest, if any, due Sears.
9.4 Reports.
If requested by Sears, Licensee shall provide to
Sears reports of sales and income and Sears commissions paid in

Licensee's fiscal year. Such report shall be certified by an
accountant or by an officer of Licensee in the event that no
audit is performed. Such report shall include, but shall not
be limited to, Licensee's profit and loss statement for such
fiscal year and balance sheet at the end of such fiscal year,
and shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles. If Licensee is a
12
publicly held corporation, this requirement may be fulfilled by
submission of Licensee's Annual Report on Form 10-X. Xxxxx
shall not disclose any such information that is not available
to the public to any third parties without Licensee's prior
consent.
9.5 Audit Rights.
Licensee shall keep and maintain books and records
that accurately reflect the sales made by Licensee under this
Agreement and the expenses that Licensee incurs in
performing under this Agreement. Sears shall have the right at
any reasonable time to review and audit the books and records
of Licensee regarding this Agreement. Such books and records
shall be kept and maintained according to generally accepted
accounting
principles.
9.6 Underreporting.
If an audit reveals that sales were under-reported
at any Licensed Business location being audited, by more than
five percent (5%) of the total sales which were actually
reported by such location, then the cost of such audit shall be
charged to such Licensed Business location. If a sampling of
Licensee's records at a Licensed Business location, using
standard audit practices, reveals that sales have been
under-reported by more than five percent (5%) of the total
sales which were actually reported by such Licensed Business
location, then such Licensed Business location shall at its
option, (a) pay Sears for all under-reported sales for each
year audited by annualizing the rate by which sales were
under-reported in the audit sample plus an administrative fee
which shall be calculated by multiplying the annualized
under-reported commissions by the percent of under-reported
sales; or (b) pay the actual amount of any under-reported sales
based on a complete audit of the books and records (at
Licensee's expense) relating to such Licensed Business
location, including a comprehensive audit of all such books and
records for the then-current year and if Sears so elects, a
comprehensive audit (at Licensee's expense) of prior years plus
an administrative fee which shall be calculated by multiplying
the audited annual under-reported commission by the percent of
under-reported sales. Each audited location shall be subject
to another audit (at Licensee's expense) one (1) year after the
initial audit. If this audit reveals that sales were again
under-reported by more than five percent (5%), Licensee shall
pay Sears for these sales as per the above except that, due to
the increased expenses incurred by Sears in continued
monitoring of the Licensed Business, the administrative fee
shall be doubled.
All under-reported sales equal to or less than five percent
(5%) of total sales actually reported by such Licensed Business
location, shall be reimbursed to Sears, as appropriate,
based on the actual amounts of such under-reports.
Sears, at its sole option, may also charge interest on all
under-reported sales at the rate of prime (as published in the
Wall Street Journal as of the date of the completion of the
audit) plus one percent (1%). Licensee, at its expense, shall
develop and implement a program to conduct internal audits of
the Licensed Business to verify accuracy of sales and
commissions.
13
9.7 Rights of Recoupment and Setoff.
Sears shall have the right to reduce, withhold or
set-off against any payment due Licensee hereunder any
liability or obligation which Licensee may have to Sears. Any
Licensee liabilities or obligations which remain outstanding
after any exercise of Sears right of set-off shall be paid by
Licensee promptly upon demand by Sears. Sears rights
under this Section are cumulative, shall be in addition to all
other rights, remedies available at law or in equity, and shall
survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
X. CUSTOMER INFORMATION; CONFIDENTIALITY

Agreement for any reason, Licensee shall immediately deliver
all copies of lists of customers and copies of all other
such Customer Information to Sears; and Licensee, its officers,

Customer Information to solicit any of such customers.

destruction, loss or theft during the term of this Agreement,
and until all copies of customer lists and copies of all other
Customer Information are turned over to Sears. Licensee
acknowledges that there is no adequate remedy at law for
violation by Licensee of this Section X and, in case of breach
of this Section X, preliminary or permanent injunctive relief
would be appropriate.
10.2 Confidential Information.

The provisions of this Section X shall survive the expiration
or termination of this Agreement.

or omission of the other party.

injury or damage is caused solely by Sears negligence. The
provisions of this Section shall survive the expiration or
termination of the Agreement.

maintain during the Term of this Agreement the following

Licensee shall furnish Sears with certificates of
insurance or, at Sears request, copies of policies, prior to
execution of this Agreement and upon each policy renewal

opinion, such policies do not afford adequate protection for
Sears, Sears shall so advise Licensee, and if Licensee does not
furnish evidence of acceptable coverage within five (5) days,
Sears shall have the right to immediately terminate this
Agreement upon written notice to Licensee.
13.4 Expiration/Non-Renewal.
If Licensee's policies of insurance expire or are
canceled during the Term of this Agreement or are materially
modified, Licensee shall promptly notify Sears of such
expiration, cancellation or material modification. If such

Sears opinion, such policies do not afford adequate
protection to Sears, Sears shall so advise Licensee. If
Licensee does not furnish evidence of acceptable replacement
coverage within five (5) days after the expiration or
cancellation of coverage or the notification from Sears that
modified policies are not sufficient, Sears shall have the
right, at its option, to immediately terminate this Agreement
upon written notice to Licensee.
17
Any approval by Sears of any of Licensee's insurance policies
shall not relieve Licensee of any responsibility under this
Agreement, including liability for claims in excess of
described limits.
