(i) As soon as practicable, but no later than 60 days after the Closing Date, the Purchasers shall prepare and deliver to the Sellers the Purchasers’ good faith proposed calculation of the Purchase Price, together with the Purchasers’ good faith proposed calculations of the (A) amount of Closing Cash and Cash Equivalents, (B) Net Working Capital Adjustment, (C) amount of Closing Date Indebtedness and (D) amount of Unpaid Seller Expenses, in each case, including the components thereof and in a manner consistent with the definitions thereof (which calculations shall be collectively referred to herein as the “Proposed Closing Date Calculations”).

(ii) The Proposed Closing Date Calculations shall become final and binding upon the Parties on the 30th day following the Sellers’ receipt thereof unless the Sellers give written notice of their disagreement (a “Purchase Price Dispute Notice”) to the Purchasers prior to such date. Any Purchase Price Dispute Notice shall specify in reasonable detail the nature and amount of any disagreement so asserted (the “Disputed Items”). If a timely Purchase Price Dispute Notice is received by the Purchasers, then the Proposed Closing Date Calculations (as revised as contemplated in this Section 1.1(b)(ii)) shall become final and binding upon the Partiers on the earlier of (x) the date the Purchasers and the Sellers resolve in writing any differences they have with respect to any matter specified in the Purchase Price Dispute Notice or (y) the date any matters properly in dispute are finally resolved in writing by the Accounting Firm; provided, that, for purposes of clarity, any items that are not so disputed shall become final and binding upon the Parties on the 30th day following the Sellers’ receipt of the Proposed Closing Date Calculations. During the 30 day-period immediately following the delivery of the Proposed Closing Date Calculations, the Purchasers and the Sellers shall seek in good faith to resolve in writing any difference which they may have with respect to any Disputed Item and the Sellers shall have reasonable access to the books, records and working papers of the Purchasers used in connection with or pertaining to the Purchasers’ preparation of the Proposed Closing Date Calculations. After delivery of any Purchase Price Dispute Notice, the Purchasers shall have reasonable access to the books, records and working papers of the Sellers used in connection with the Sellers’ preparation of the Purchase Price Dispute Notice. If, at the end of the 30-day period after Purchasers’ receipt of a Purchase Price Dispute Notice, any Disputed Item specified in the Purchase Price Dispute Notice has not been resolved by the Purchasers and the Sellers, the Purchasers and the Sellers shall submit to a nationally-recognized, independent accounting firm reasonably acceptable to the Purchasers and the Sellers (the “Accounting Firm”) for review and resolution any such Disputed Items which remain in dispute

 

- 2 -


(including such Parties’ proposed resolutions thereof) and which were properly included in the Purchase Price Dispute Notice. The Accounting Firm shall be requested to render a final determination of the applicable remaining Disputed Items (acting as an expert and not as an arbitrator) within 30 days after referral of the matter to such Accounting Firm, which determination must be in writing setting forth in reasonable detail the basis therefor and must be based solely on the definitions and other applicable provisions of this Agreement (and not on independent review), on a single presentation submitted by each of the Purchasers and the Sellers and on one written response to each such presentation so submitted, which such determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Parties. The Proposed Closing Date Calculations shall be revised as appropriate to reflect the resolution of any objections thereto pursuant to this Section 1.1(b)(ii) and, as so revised, such Proposed Closing Date Calculations shall be deemed to set forth the final Purchase Price and the final (A) amount of Closing Cash and Cash Equivalents, (B) Net Working Capital, (C) amount of Closing Date Indebtedness and (D) amount of Unpaid Seller Expenses, in each case, for all purposes hereunder (including the determination of the Actual Adjustment).

(iii) The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne proportionately by the US Purchaser, on the one hand, and the US Seller, on the other hand, on the basis of the discrepancy (in dollars) between each such Party’s determination of the Disputed Items (in the aggregate) as presented to the Accounting Firm and the final and binding determination of the Disputed Items (in the aggregate) by the Accounting Firm. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, all other costs and expenses incurred by the Parties in connection with resolving any dispute hereunder before the Accounting Firm shall be borne by the Party incurring such cost and expense. The Parties shall cause the Accounting Firm (x) to be bound by the principles set forth in this Section 1.1(b), (y) to limit its review to matters specifically set forth in the Purchase Price Dispute Notice, and (z) not to assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by the Purchasers or the Sellers, respectively, or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by the Purchasers or the Sellers, respectively.

(c) Adjustment to Estimated Purchase Price.

(i) If the Actual Adjustment is a positive amount, then US Purchaser shall pay (or shall cause the Company to pay) to US Seller an amount equal to such positive amount by wire transfer or delivery of immediately available funds within three Business Days after the date on which the Purchase Price is finally determined pursuant to Section 1.1(b) above.

(ii) If the Actual Adjustment is a negative amount, then US Seller shall pay to US Purchaser an amount equal to the absolute value of such negative amount within three Business Days after the date on which the Purchase Price is finally determined pursuant to Section 1.1(b) above to be paid (A) first from the Escrow Fund (and US Purchaser and US Seller shall promptly execute the necessary documents instructing the Escrow Agent to make the applicable payment to US Purchaser), and (B) then, to the extent the Escrow Fund is insufficient, the remaining balance from US Seller by wire transfer or delivery of immediately available funds.

(iii) Any amounts remaining in the Escrow Fund after payment of the Actual Adjustment pursuant to Section 1.1(c)(i) or 1.1(c)(ii), as the case may be, shall be released to US Seller, and in such instance, US Purchaser and US Seller shall promptly execute the necessary documents instructing the Escrow Agent to make the applicable payment to US Seller.

The Parties acknowledge that the Closing Date Indebtedness and Unpaid Seller Expenses are obligations of the Sellers incurred on or before the Closing Date, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to make them obligations of the Purchasers. Payment of such Closing Date Indebtedness and Unpaid Seller Expenses by the Purchasers on behalf of the Sellers on the Closing Date is being made for convenience only.

1.4 Earnout. As additional consideration to US Seller, if and solely to the extent required by this Section 1.4, US Seller shall be entitled to receive additional consideration in the aggregate amount of up to $3,500,000 (in cash and notes) as set forth in this Section 1.4 (the sum of the Purchase Price and all amounts paid pursuant to this Section 1.4, the “Adjusted Purchase Price”).

(b) Earnout Dispute. If US Seller provides an EBITDA Statement Dispute Notice to US Purchaser within such 30-day calendar period, the Purchasers and the Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve the dispute during the 30-calendar day period commencing on the date US Purchaser receives the EBITDA Statement Dispute Notice from the US Seller.

Upon the consummation of a Change of Control prior to the payment of the Earnout Amount or the binding determination in accordance with this Section 1.4 that no Earnout Amount is due to the Sellers, as applicable, $3,500,000 shall automatically become immediately due and payable to the Sellers, and US Purchaser shall pay to US Seller $3,500,000 in immediately available funds to accounts specified by each such Seller.

ARTICLE 7

INDEMNIFICATION

7.1 Indemnification by Seller. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article 7, Seller shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Purchaser, Purchaser’s Affiliates and the Representatives of any of them (collectively, “Purchaser Indemnitees”) from and against any and all Losses any Purchaser Indemnitee may suffer, sustain or become subject to, as a result of, in connection with, relating to, incidental to, or by virtue of (i) Seller’s breach of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement and any action, suit or proceeding arising out of such breach or (ii) the Retained Liabilities, including Seller’s failure to pay, perform or discharge when due any of the Retained Liabilities, and any action, suit or proceeding arising out of such Retained Liabilities.

7.2 Indemnification by Purchaser. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article 7, Purchaser shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Seller, Seller’s Affiliates and the Representatives of any of the foregoing (collectively, “Seller Indemnitees”) from and against any

 

10


and all Losses any Seller Indemnitee may suffer, sustain or become subject to, as a result of, in connection with, relating to, incidental to, or by virtue of (i) Purchaser’s breach of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement and any action, suit or proceeding arising out of such breach or (ii) the Assumed Liabilities, including Purchaser’s failure to pay, perform or discharge when due any of the Assumed Liabilities, and any action, suit or proceeding arising out of such Assumed Liabilities.

7.3 Notice of Claims. If any Purchaser Indemnitee or Seller Indemnitee (an “Indemnified Party”) believes that it has suffered or incurred any Losses for which it is entitled to indemnification under this Article 7, such Indemnified Party shall notify the Party from whom indemnification is being claimed (the “Indemnifying Party”) with reasonable promptness and reasonable particularity. If any claim is instituted by or against a third party with respect to which any Indemnified Party intends to claim indemnification under this Article 7, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of such claim. The notice provided by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party shall describe the claim (the “Asserted Liability”) in reasonable detail and shall indicate the amount (or an estimate) of the Losses that have been or may be suffered by the Indemnified Party. The failure of an Indemnified Party to give any notice required by this Section 7.3 shall not affect any of the Indemnified Party’s rights under this Article 7 or otherwise except and to the extent that such failure is materially prejudicial to the rights or obligations of the Indemnifying Party.

7.4 Opportunity to Defend Third Party Claims. If any action indemnifiable under this Article 7 is brought by a third party against any Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled: (a) to participate in such action and (b) to elect, by written notice delivered to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of notice of the Asserted Liability, to defend, compromise or settle such action, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, it being agreed by the Parties that Kirkland & Ellis LLP is reasonably acceptable counsel to represent the Seller. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate with respect to any such participation, defense, settlement or compromise. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ its own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party’s counsel shall be at the sole expense of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle or compromise any action or consent to the entry of a judgment without the written consent of the Indemnified Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) that: (x) does not provide for the claimant to give an unconditional release to the Indemnified Party in respect of the Asserted Liability; (y) involves relief other than monetary damages; or (z) places restrictions or conditions on the operation of the business of the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any claim or action effected without its written consent. After payment of any Asserted Liability by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party, if requested by the Indemnifying Party, shall assign to the Indemnifying Party all rights the Indemnified Party may have against any applicable account debtor or other responsible Person in respect of the Asserted Liability. If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend any Asserted Liability, the Indemnified Party shall make available to the Indemnifying Party any books, records or other documents within its control that are necessary or appropriate for such defense; provided, that such distribution of such books, records or other documents would not breach privilege, confidentiality or other advisory protection.

7.6 Limitation of Liability. Seller shall be liable to the Purchaser Indemnitees for any Losses covered by Section 7.1(i) up to a maximum aggregate liability of Five Hundred Thirty Five Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($535,000.00). For avoidance of doubt, Seller shall be liable to the Purchaser Indemnitees for any and all Losses covered by Section 7.1(ii) without any limitation as to the maximum aggregate liability. Purchaser shall be liable to the Seller Indemnitees for any Losses covered by Section 7.2(i) up to a maximum aggregate liability of Five Hundred Thirty Five Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($535,000.00). For avoidance of doubt, Purchaser shall be liable to the Seller Indemnitees for any and all Losses covered by Section 7.2(ii) without any limitation as to the maximum aggregate liability. The provisions of this Article 7 shall survive Closing and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy available to the Seller Indemnitees and the Purchaser Indemnitees after the Closing Date for any breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement and any action, suit or proceeding arising out of such breach.

7.7 Effect of Insurance. The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under this Article 7 shall be reduced by the insurance proceeds received and any other amount, if any, recovered from third parties by the Indemnified Party (or its Affiliates) with respect to any Losses. If any Indemnified Party shall have received any indemnification payment pursuant to this Article 7 with respect to any Loss, such Indemnified Party shall, upon written request by the Indemnifying Party, assign to such Indemnifying Party (to the extent of the indemnification payment) any claim which such Indemnified Party may have under any applicable insurance policy which provides coverage for such Loss to the extent of such indemnification payment. Such Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate (at the expense of the Indemnifying Party) to collect under such insurance policy. If any Indemnified Party shall have received any payment pursuant to this Article 7 with respect to any Loss and has or shall subsequently have received insurance proceeds or other amounts with respect to such Loss, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly pay to the Indemnifying Party the amount so recovered (after deducting the amount of the expenses incurred by it in procuring such recovery), but not in excess of the amount previously so paid by the Indemnifying Party.

7.8 No Additional Representations or Warranties. THE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT ARE THE ONLY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES GIVEN BY THE PARTIES.

12


WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITH RESPECT TO VALIDITY, ENFORCEABILITY, USEFULNESS, INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

7.9 Purchase Price Adjustments. To the extent permitted by law, any amounts payable under this Article 7 shall be treated by the Parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

(a) by either Party, if the Closing shall not have occurred by January 15, 2013; provided, however, that such date may be extended by Seller and Purchaser upon mutual agreement;

(b) by Seller, if Purchaser shall have materially breached any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, which breach cannot be or has not been cured within ten (10) Business Days after the giving of written notice by Seller to Purchaser specifying such breach;

(c) by Purchaser, if Seller shall have materially breached any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, which breach cannot be or has not been cured within ten (10) Business Days after the giving of written notice by Purchaser to Seller specifying such breach; or

The return of the Deposit by Seller shall be Purchaser’s sole remedy in the event of a breach of Seller’s obligation hereunder. The Parties acknowledge and agree, for the avoidance of doubt, that Seller shall not be obligated to return the Deposit to Purchaser for any reason (including the failure of any condition contained in Section 3.3 to be satisfied) other than as set forth in this Section 8.2.

8.3 Term. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Article 4 and Article 5 of this Agreement (including for the avoidance of doubt, any indemnification

In the event either Party attempts to challenge the final or binding nature of the arbitration panel, the Parties each agree, without admitting that any such challenge is permissible or otherwise has merit, that the exclusive venue for any such challenge shall be in the U.S. federal district courts located in the State of New York as a court of first instance. The Parties each agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts with respect to any such claim, and waive personal service of any and all process upon them, and consent that all services of process be made by registered mail, directed to them at their address as set forth in Section 9.10, and service so made shall be deemed to be completed when deemed received as provided in Section 9.10. The Parties each waive any objection based on forum non conveniens and waive any objection to venue of any action instituted hereunder.

The words “include”, “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “but not limited to.” The article and section headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not serve to limit, expand or interpret the articles and sections to which they apply, and shall not be deemed to be a part of this Agreement. Words such as “herein”, “hereof”, “hereto”, and “hereunder” refer to this Agreement. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises this Agreement shall be construed as if jointly drafted by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring a Party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

9.9 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any law or public policy, all other terms or provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transaction herein is not affected in any manner adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order than the transaction herein is consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

Other Pending Disputes

 

 

 

   An application for the mark LOGO was filed in Class 9 in China by Applicant, Liu Yiqi (an individual) and given the App. No. 3847273. Phat Fashions filed an opposition against this application which received an Adverse Decision from the Chinese Trademark Office in July of 2012. Phat Fashions subsequently filed an administrative lawsuit against the Adverse Decision, and such case was accepted by the Beijing No. Intermediate People’s Court in September of 2012 and will soon be heard.

 

 

   The Mexican Registration in Class 25 for the mark LOGO is owned by Joel Renteria Martinez (an individual) (Reg. No. 977592). Phat Fashions filed a Cancellation Proceeding against this registration in April 2009. The Cancellation Action was originally rejected because Phat Fashions’ evidence of use was based on the use of its then-licensee, BP Clothing. This rejection was overcome in October of 2011, but in August of 2012, the Mexican Trademark Office rendered a resolution rejecting the Cancellation Action once again on the basis that Martinez’s mark was in use in Mexico. This decision was challenged by Phat Fashions in August of 2012 through the filing of an annulment action


 

with a Federal Administrative Court based on Phat Fashions’ prior use of its mark in Mexico. If a favorable resolution in the annulment action is obtained, the same will be studied by the Mexican Trademark Office.

 

    Kellwood Company received a cease and desist letter from Aeropostale, Inc. dated August 22, 2012, and alleging that BABY PHAT shirts marketed as “Girls Glitter Heart Tees” were “virtually exact copies of an earlier Aeropostale designed T-shirt.” The letter simply asked for Kellwood’s assurance that it would not resume selling this item or offer other merchandise copied from Aeropostale designs. As this design was created, manufactured, and distributed by Phat Fashions’ licensee, Parigi Group, Kellwood and Phat have sent the letter to Parigi for handling.

 

    Venezuelan Opposition Proceeding Against Kathy Cat Design in cls. 3, 14, 18 and 25 filed by Katherine Rey Sotomayor, Appl. Ser. Nos. 06004607-06004610. Phat Fashions opposed this application in 2006. A decision is expected to be rendered in 2-3 years.

 

    Venezuelan Application for BABY CAT and Cat Design in cl. 25 filed by Habibi Moda C.A., Appl. Ser. No. 2103/2009. Phat Fashions opposed this application in 2009. A decision is expected to be rendered in 5-6 years.

 

    Indian Trademark Application for JUST PHAT in cl. 25 filed by Pooja Thakkar, Appl. Serial No. 1592557. Phat Fashions opposed this application in December 2009. A decision is expected to be rendered in 2012.

 

    Indonesian Trademark Application for BABY PHAT with Cat Design in cl. 18 filed by Rosni Kosman (App. No. D002007014087). Phat Fashions opposed this trademark application in January 2009 and is awaiting the decision.

 

    Indonesian Trademark Opposition against BABY PHAT with Cat Design in cl. 25 filed by Uswah Rudi. Phat Fashions opposed this application in November 2009 and is awaiting a decision.

 

    Brazilian Trademark Applications for DSCOLADA with Cat Design in cl. 14, Appl. Serial No. 901780782 and DSCOLADA with Cat Design in cl. 25, Appl. Serial No. 901780693, both filed by Dscolada Ltda Me. Phat Fashions opposed both applications and awaits the decisions.

Other Pending Disputes

 

 

 

   An application for the mark LOGO was filed in Class 9 in China by Applicant, Liu Yiqi (an individual) and given the App. No. 3847273. Phat Fashions filed an opposition against this application which received an Adverse Decision from the Chinese Trademark Office in July of 2012. Phat Fashions subsequently filed an administrative lawsuit against the Adverse Decision, and such case was accepted by the Beijing No. Intermediate People’s Court in September of 2012 and will soon be heard.

 

 

   The Mexican Registration in Class 25 for the mark LOGO is owned by Joel Renteria Martinez (an individual) (Reg. No. 977592). Phat Fashions filed a Cancellation Proceeding against this registration in April 2009. The Cancellation Action was originally rejected because Phat Fashions’ evidence of use was based on the use of its then-licensee, BP Clothing. This rejection was overcome in October of 2011, but in August of 2012, the Mexican Trademark Office rendered a resolution rejecting the Cancellation Action once again on the basis that Martinez’s mark was in use in Mexico. This decision was challenged by Phat Fashions in August of 2012 through the filing of an annulment action


 

with a Federal Administrative Court based on Phat Fashions’ prior use of its mark in Mexico. If a favorable resolution in the annulment action is obtained, the same will be studied by the Mexican Trademark Office.

 

    Kellwood Company received a cease and desist letter from Aeropostale, Inc. dated August 22, 2012, and alleging that BABY PHAT shirts marketed as “Girls Glitter Heart Tees” were “virtually exact copies of an earlier Aeropostale designed T-shirt.” The letter simply asked for Kellwood’s assurance that it would not resume selling this item or offer other merchandise copied from Aeropostale designs. As this design was created, manufactured, and distributed by Phat Fashions’ licensee, Parigi Group, Kellwood and Phat have sent the letter to Parigi for handling.
