(a) ABC and LRI agree to cooperate in good faith to provide for an orderly transition of insurance coverage from the date hereof through the Effective Time. In no event shall either Party have Liability or obligation whatsoever to the other Party in the event that any insurance policy or other contract or policy of insurance shall be terminated or otherwise cease to be in effect for any reason, shall be unavailable or inadequate to cover any Liability of the other Party for any reason whatsoever or shall not be renewed or extended beyond the current expiration date.

(b) From and after the Effective Time, with respect to any Losses or Liabilities incurred by ABC prior to the Effective Time, LRI will provide ABC with access to, and ABC may, upon prior written notice to LRI, make claims under, LRI's third-party insurance policies in place immediately prior to the Effective Time and LRI's historical policies of insurance, but solely to the extent that such policies provided coverage for ABC prior to the Effective Time; provided that such access to, and the right to make claims under, such insurance policies, shall be subject to the terms and conditions of such insurance policies, including any limits on coverage or scope, any deductibles and other fees and expenses, and shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(i) ABC shall report any Claim to LRI, as promptly as practicable, and in any event in sufficient time so that such Claim may be made in accordance with LRI's Claim reporting procedures;

(ii) ABC shall indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse LRI for any deductibles, self-insured retention, fees and expenses incurred by LRI to the extent resulting from any access to, any Claims made by ABC under, any insurance provided pursuant to this Section 4.1(b), including any indemnity payments, settlements, judgments, legal fees and allocated Claims expenses and Claim handling fees, whether such Claims are made by ABC, its employees or third Persons; and

(iii) ABC shall exclusively bear (and LRI shall have no obligation to repay or reimburse ABC for) and shall be liable for all uninsured, uncovered, unavailable or uncollectible amounts of all such claims made by ABC under the policies as provided for in this Section 4.1(b).

In the event that LRI incurs any Losses or Liabilities prior to or in respect of the period prior to the Effective Time for which LRI is entitled to coverage under ABC’s third-party insurance policies, the same process pursuant to this Section 4.1(b) shall apply, substituting “ABC” for “LRI” and “LRI” for “ABC.”

(c) Except as provided in Section 4.1(b), from and after the Effective Time, ABC shall have no rights to or under any of the insurance policies of LRI. At the Effective

Time, ABC shall have in effect all insurance programs required to comply with ABC’s contractual obligations and Applicable Law.

(d) LRI shall retain the exclusive right to control its insurance policies and programs, including the right to exhaust, settle, release, commute, buy-back or otherwise resolve disputes with respect to any of its insurance policies and programs and to amend, modify or waive any rights under any such insurance policies and programs, notwithstanding whether any such policies or programs apply to any ABC Liabilities and/or claims ABC has made or could make in the future, and ABC shall not erode, exhaust, settle, release, commute, buyback or otherwise resolve disputes with LRI's insurers with respect to any of LRI’s insurance policies and programs, or amend, modify or waive any rights under any such insurance policies and programs. ABC shall cooperate with LRI and share such information as is reasonably necessary in order to permit LRI to manage and conduct its insurance matters as it deems appropriate. LRI shall not have any obligation to secure extended reporting for any claims under any Liability policies of LRI for any acts or omissions by ABC incurred prior to the Effective Time.

(e) This Agreement shall not be considered as an attempted assignment of any policy of insurance or as a contract of insurance and shall not be construed to waive any right or remedy of LRI in respect of any insurance policy or any other contract or policy of insurance.

(f) ABC does hereby, agree that LRI shall not have any Liability whatsoever as a result of the insurance policies and practices of LRI as in effect at any time, including as a result of the level or scope of any such insurance, the creditworthiness of any insurance carrier, the terms and conditions of any policy, the adequacy or timeliness of any notice to any insurance carrier with respect to any Claim or potential Claim or otherwise.

Section 4.2. Treatment of Payments for Tax Purposes. For all tax purposes, the Parties agree to treat (i) any payment required by this Agreement (other than payments with respect to interest accruing after the Effective Time) as either a contribution by ABC to LRI or a distribution by LRI to ABC, as the case may be, occurring immediately prior to the Effective Time or as a payment of an assumed or retained Liability; and (ii) any payment of interest as taxable or deductible, as the case may be, to the Party entitled under this Agreement to retain such payment or required under this Agreement to make such payment, in either case except as otherwise required by applicable Law.

Section 4.3. Post-Effective Time Conduct. The Parties acknowledge that, after the Effective Time, each Party shall be independent of the other Party, with responsibility for its own actions and inactions and its own Liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from the conduct of its Business, operations and activities following the Effective Time, except as may otherwise be provided in any Ancillary Agreement, and each Party shall (except as otherwise provided in Section 4) use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent such Liabilities from being inappropriately borne by the other Party.

ARTICLE 5.

ACCESS TO INFORMATION

Section 5.1. Access to Information.

(a) For a period of ONE year after the Distribution Date, each Party shall afford promptly the other Party and its agents and, to the extent required by Applicable Law, authorized representatives of any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction, reasonable access (which shall include the right to make copies) during normal business hours to its books of account, financial and other records (including accountant’s work papers, to the extent any required consents have been obtained), information, employees and auditors to the extent necessary or useful for such other Party in connection with any audit, investigation, dispute or litigation, complying with their obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, any regulatory proceeding, any regulatory filings, complying with reporting disclosure requirements or any other requirements imposed by any Governmental Authority or any other reasonable business purpose of the Party requesting such access; provided that any such access shall not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the Business of the Party providing such access; provided further that in the event any Party reasonably determines that affording any such access to the other Party would be commercially detrimental in any material respect or violate any Applicable Law or agreement to which such Party, or waive any attorney-client privilege applicable to such Party, the Parties shall use reasonable efforts to permit the compliance with such request in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence.

Section 5.2. Litigation Cooperation.

(a) Effective as of the Effective Time, LRI shall assume and thereafter be responsible for all Liabilities of either Party that may result from LRI Assumed Actions and, subject to Section 6.4(c), all fees and costs relating to the defense of LRI Assumed Actions, including attorneys’, accountants’, consultants’ and other professionals’ fees and expenses that have been incurred prior to the Effective Time and are unpaid as of the Effective Time, or, that are incurred on or after the Effective Time. “LRI Assumed Actions” means those Actions primarily relating to LRI Business.

(b) Effective as of the Effective Time, the applicable member of ABC shall assume and thereafter be responsible for all Liabilities of either Party that may result from ABC Assumed Actions and, subject to Section 6.4(c), all fees and costs relating to the defense of ABC Assumed Actions, including attorneys’, accountants’, consultants’ and other professionals’ fees and expenses that have been incurred prior to the Effective Time and are unpaid as of or after the Effective Time, or, that are incurred on or after the Effective Time. “ABC Assumed Actions” means those Actions primarily related to ABC Businesses.

(c) Each Party agrees that at all times from and after the Effective Time if an Action relating primarily to its Business is commenced by a Third Party naming a member of each Party as defendants thereto, then such Action shall be deemed to be a LRI Assumed Action (in the case of an Action primarily related to the LRI Business) or a ABC Assumed Action (in the case of an Action primarily related to the ABC Businesses) and the Party as to which the Action primarily relates shall use its reasonable efforts to cause the other to be removed from such Action.

(d) The Parties agree that at all times from and after the Effective Time, if an Action which does not relate primarily to either Party’s Business is commenced by a Third Party naming a member of each Party as a defendant thereto, then the Parties shall cooperate and consult to the extent necessary or advisable with respect to such Action.

(e) Each Party shall use reasonable efforts to make available to the other Party and its attorneys, accountants, consultants and other designated representatives, upon written request, its directors, officers, employees and representatives as witnesses, and shall otherwise cooperate with the other Party, to the extent reasonably requested in connection with any Action arising out of either Party’s Business prior to the Effective Time in which the requesting Party may from time to time be involved.

Section 5.3. Reimbursement. Each Party providing information or witnesses to the other Party or otherwise incurring any out-of-pocket expense in connection with cooperating under Section 5.1 or Section 5.2 shall be entitled to receive from the recipient thereof, upon the presentation of invoices therefor, payment for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including attorney’s fees but excluding reimbursement for general overhead, salary and employee benefits) actually incurred in providing such access, information, witnesses or cooperation.

Section 5.4. Ownership of Information. All information owned by one Party that is provided to the other Party under Section 5.1 or Section 5.2 shall be deemed to remain the property of the providing Party. Unless specifically set forth herein or in any Ancillary Agreement, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to grant or confer rights of license or otherwise in any such information.

Section 5.5. Retention of Records. Except as otherwise required by Applicable Law or agreed to in writing, each Party shall, retain, in accordance with the practice of such Party applicable to the retention of its own information as in effect from time to time, any and all information in its possession or control relating to the other Party’s Business. Neither Party shall destroy, or permit the destruction, or otherwise dispose, or permit the disposal, of any such information, subject to such retention practice, unless, prior to such destruction or disposal, the Party proposing such destruction or disposal (the “Disposing Party”) provides not less than 30 days’ prior written notice to the other Party (the “Receiving Party”), specifying the information proposed to be destroyed or disposed of and the scheduled date for such destruction or disposal. If the Receiving Party shall request in writing prior to the scheduled date for such destruction or disposal that any of the information proposed to be destroyed or disposed of be delivered to the Receiving Party, the Disposing Party shall promptly arrange for the delivery of such of the information as was requested at the expense of the Receiving Party; provided that in the event that the Disposing Party reasonably determines that any such provision of information would violate any Applicable Law or agreement to which such Party, or waive any attorney-client privilege applicable to such Party, the Parties shall use reasonable efforts to permit the prompt compliance with such request in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence. Any records or documents that were subject to a litigation hold prior to the Distribution Date must be retained by the applicable Party until such Party is notified by the other Party that the litigation hold is no longer in effect.

Section 5.6. Confidentiality. Each Party acknowledges that it may have in its possession, and, in connection with this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, may receive, Confidential Information of the other Party (including information in the possession of such other Party relating to its clients or customers). Each Party shall hold and shall cause its directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants and advisors (“Representatives”) to hold in strict confidence and not to use except as permitted by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement all such Confidential Information concerning the other Party unless (a) such Party or their Representatives is compelled to disclose such Confidential Information by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of Applicable Law or (b) such Confidential Information can be shown to have been (i) in the public domain through no fault of such Party or their Representatives, (ii) lawfully acquired after the Distribution Date on a non-confidential basis from other sources not known by such Party to be under any legal obligation to keep such information confidential or (iii) developed by such Party or their Representatives without the use of any Confidential Information of the other Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Party or their Representatives may disclose such Confidential Information to the other Party or their Representatives so long as such Persons are informed by such Party of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and are directed by such Party to treat such information confidentially. The obligation of each Party and their Representatives to hold any such Confidential Information in confidence shall be satisfied if they exercise the same level of care with respect to such Confidential Information as they would with respect to their own proprietary information. If such Party or their Representatives becomes legally compelled to disclose any documents or information subject to this Section 5.6, such Party will promptly notify the other Party and, upon request, use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the other Party’s efforts to seek a protective order or other remedy.

If no such protective order or other remedy is obtained or if the other Party waives in writing such Party’s compliance with this Section 5.6, such Party or their Representatives may furnish only that portion of the information which it concludes, after consultation with counsel, is legally required to be disclosed and will exercise its reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such information. Each Party agrees to be responsible for any breach of this Section 5.6 by it, or their Representatives.

Section 5.7. Privileged Information.

(a) The Parties acknowledge that ABC, on the one hand, and LRI, on the other hand, may possess documents or other information regarding the other Party that is or may be subject to the attorney-client privilege, the work product doctrine or common interest privilege (collectively, “Privileges”; and such documents and other information collectively, the “Privileged Information”). Each Party agrees to use reasonable efforts to protect and maintain, and to cause their respective Affiliates to protect and maintain, any applicable Claim to Privilege in order to prevent any of the other Party’s Privileged Information from being disclosed or used in a manner inconsistent with such Privilege without the other Party’s consent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Party and its Affiliates shall not, without the other Party’s prior written consent, (i) waive any Privilege with respect to any of the other Party’s Privileged Information, (ii) fail to defend any Privilege with respect to any such Privileged Information, or (iii) fail to take any other actions reasonably necessary to preserve any Privilege with respect to any such Privileged Information.

(b) Upon receipt by a Party of any subpoena, discovery or other request that calls for the production or disclosure of Privileged Information of the other Party, such Party shall promptly notify the other Party of the existence of the request and shall provide the other Party a reasonable opportunity to review the information and to assert any rights it may have under this Section 5.7 or otherwise to prevent the production or disclosure of such Privileged Information. Each Party agrees that it will not produce or disclose any information that may be covered by a Privilege of the under this Section 5.7 unless (i) the other Party has provided its written consent to such production or disclosure (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) or (ii) a court of competent jurisdiction has entered an order finding that the information is not entitled to protection under any applicable Privilege or otherwise requires disclosure of such information.

RELEASE; INDEMNIFICATION

Section 6.1. Release of Pre-Distribution Claims.

(a) Except (i) as provided in Section 6.1(b) and (ii) as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, each Party hereto does hereby, on behalf of itself and each of their successors and assigns, release and forever discharge the other Party and their respective successors and assigns, and all Persons who at any time prior to the Effective Time have been directors, officers or employees of such other Party (in each case, in their respective capacities as such), and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Released Parties”), from any and all demands, Actions and Liabilities whatsoever, whether at law or in equity (including any right of contribution or any right pursuant to any Environmental Law whether now or hereinafter in effect),

whether arising under any contract or agreement, by operation of law or otherwise (and including for the avoidance of doubt, those arising as a result of the negligence, strict liability or any other liability under any theory of law or equity of, or any violation of law by any Released Party), existing or arising from any acts or events occurring or failing to occur or alleged to have occurred or to have failed to occur or any conditions existing or alleged to have existed on or before the Distribution Date, including in connection with the transactions and all other activities to implement the Distribution. ABC shall, effective as of the Effective Time, release and forever discharge each of the LRI Indemnitees (as defined in Section 6.3(a) of this Agreement) as and to the same extent as the release and discharge provided by ABC pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.1(a). LRI shall cause each of the other members of the LRI Indemnitees (as defined in Section 6.2(a) of this Agreement) as and to the same extent as the release and discharge provided by LRI pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.1(a).

(b) Nothing contained in Section 6.1(a) shall impair any right of any Person identified in Section 6.1(a) to enforce this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement. Nothing contained in Section 6.1(a) shall release or discharge any Person from:

(i) any Liability assumed, transferred, assigned, retained or allocated to that Person in accordance with, or any other Liability of that Person under, this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements;

(ii) any Liability that is expressly specified in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to continue after the Effective Time, but subject to any limitation set forth in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement relating specifically to such Liability; or

(iii) any Liability the release of which would result in the release of any Person other than ABC or LRI or any related Released Party.

In addition, nothing contained in Section 6.1(a) shall release any Party from honoring its existing obligations to indemnify, or advance expenses to, any Person who was a director, officer or employee of such Party, at or prior to the Effective Time, to the extent such Person was entitled to such indemnification or advancement of expenses pursuant to then-existing obligations; provided, however, that to the extent applicable, Sections 6.2 and 6.3 hereof shall determine whether any Party shall be required to indemnify the other or a member of its Group in respect of such Liability.

(c) It is the intent of each of the Parties hereto by virtue of the provisions of this Section 6.1 to provide for a full and complete release and discharge of all Liabilities existing or arising from all acts and events occurring or failing to occur or alleged to have occurred or to have failed to occur and all conditions existing or alleged to have existed on or before the Distribution Date between ABC, on the one hand, LRI, on the other hand (including any contractual agreements or arrangements existing or alleged to exist between the Parties on or before the Distribution Date), except as expressly set forth in Section 6.1(b) or as expressly provided in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

Section 6.2. LRI Indemnification of ABC.

(a) Effective as of and after the Effective Time, LRI shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless ABC and the respective directors, officers, employees and Affiliates (the “ABC Indemnitees”) from and against any and all Losses incurred or suffered by any of the ABC Indemnitees arising out of or in connection with (i) any of the LRI Liabilities, or the failure of LRI to pay, perform or otherwise discharge any of the LRI Liabilities and (ii) any breach by LRI of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

(b) Except to the extent set forth in Section 6.3(b), effective as of and after the Effective Time, LRI shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the ABC Indemnitees and each Person, if any, who controls any ABC Indemnitee within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act from and against any and all Losses caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the the Information Statement (as amended or supplemented if LRI shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto), or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Section 6.3. ABC Indemnification of LRI.

(a) Effective as of and after the Effective Time, ABC shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless LRI and the respective directors, officers, employees and Affiliates (the “LRI Indemnitees”) from and against any and all Losses incurred or suffered by any of the LRI Indemnitees and arising out of or in connection with (i) any of the ABC Liabilities, or the failure of ABC to pay, perform or otherwise discharge any of the ABC Liabilities and (ii) any breach by ABC of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

(b) Effective as of and after the Effective Time, ABC shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the LRI Indemnitees and each Person, if any, who controls any LRI Indemnitee within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act from and against any and all Losses caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Information Statement (as amended or supplemented if LRI shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto), or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such Losses are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission arising out of information provided ABC for inclusion in the Information Statement.

Section 6.4. Procedures.

(a) The Party seeking indemnification under Section 6.2 or Section 6.3 (the “Indemnified Party”) agrees to give prompt notice to the Party against whom indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any suit, action or proceeding (each, a “Claim”) in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder and will provide the Indemnifying Party such information with respect thereto that the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request.

The failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent such failure shall have prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Claim asserted by any Third Party (“Third-Party Claim”) and, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 6.4, if it so notifies the Indemnified Party no later than 30 days after receipt of the notice described in Section 6.4(a), shall be entitled to control and appoint lead counsel for such defense, in each case at its expense. If the Indemnifying Party does not, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend or contest such Third-Party Claim through counsel chosen by the Indemnified Party reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party, subject to the provisions of this Section 6.4. The Indemnified Party shall provide the Indemnifying Party and such counsel with such information regarding such Third-Party Claim as either of them may reasonably request.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party shall assume the control of the defense of any Third-Party Claim in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4, (i) the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) before entering into any settlement of such Third-Party Claim, if the settlement does not release the Indemnified Party from all Liabilities with respect to such Third-Party Claim or the settlement imposes injunctive or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or any of its related Indemnitees or is otherwise materially prejudicial to any such Person and (ii) the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) the defense of such Third-Party Claim and, at its own expense, to employ separate counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided that in the event of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the applicable Indemnified Party, the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be at the Indemnifying Party’s expense.

(d) Each Party shall cooperate, and cause their respective Affiliates to cooperate, in the defense or prosecution of any Third-Party Claim and shall furnish or cause to be furnished such records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials or appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith.

(e) Each Indemnified Party shall use reasonable efforts to collect any amounts available under insurance coverage, or from any other Person alleged to be responsible, for any Losses payable under Section 6.2 or Section 6.3 and the reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith will be treated as Losses subject to indemnification hereunder.

(f) If any Third-Party Claim shall be brought against a member of each Party, then such Action shall be deemed to be a LRI Assumed Action or a ABC Assumed Action in accordance with Sections 5.2(a) and 5.2(b), to the extent applicable, and the related Party shall be deemed to be the Indemnifying Party for the purposes of this Article 6. In the event of any Action in which the Indemnifying Party is not also named defendant, at the request of either the Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party, the Parties will use reasonable efforts to substitute the Indemnifying Party or its applicable Affiliate for the named defendant in the Action.

Section 6.5. Calculation of Indemnification Amount. Any indemnification amount pursuant to Section 6.2 or Section 6.3 shall be paid (i) net of any amounts recovered by the Indemnified Party under applicable Third Party insurance policies or from any other Third Party alleged to be responsible therefor, and (ii) taking into account any tax benefit actually realized and any tax cost incurred by the Indemnified Party arising from the incurrence or payment of the relevant Losses. If the Indemnified Party receives any amounts under applicable Third Party insurance policies, or from any other Third Party alleged to be responsible for any Losses, subsequent to an indemnification payment by the Indemnifying Party in respect thereof, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for any payment made by such Indemnifying Party in respect thereof up to the amount received by the Indemnified Party from such Third Party insurance policy or Third Party, as applicable. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any Losses under Section 6.2 or Section 6.3 to the extent such Losses are special, indirect, incidental, consequential or punitive damages or lost profits (other than such Losses paid to Third Parties).

Section 6.6. Contribution. If for any reason the indemnification provided for in Section 6.2 or Section 6.3 is unavailable to any Indemnified Party, or insufficient to hold it harmless, then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of ABC, on the one hand, and LRI, on the other hand, in connection with the conduct, statement or omission that resulted in such Losses. In case of any Losses arising out of or related to information contained in the Information Statement (as amended or supplemented), the relative fault of ABC, on the one hand, and LRI, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission of a material fact relates to information supplied by ABC or LRI.

Section 6.7. Non-Exclusivity of Remedies. Subject to Section 6.1, the remedies provided for in this Article 6 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Party at law or in equity; provided that the procedures set forth in Sections 6.4 and 6.5 shall be the exclusive procedures governing any indemnity action brought under this Agreement.

Section 6.8. Survival of Indemnities. The rights and obligations of any Indemnified Party or Indemnifying Party under this Article 6 shall survive the sale or other transfer of any Party of any of its assets, Business or Liabilities.

ARTICLE 7.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Section 7.1. Disputes. Except as otherwise specifically provided in any Ancillary Agreement, the procedures for discussion, negotiation and mediation set forth in this Article 7 shall apply to all disputes, controversies or claims (whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise) that may arise out of or relate to, or arise under or in connection with, this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including all actions taken in furtherance of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby on or prior to the date hereof), or the commercial or economic relationship of the Parties relating hereto or thereto, between or among ABC, on the one hand, and LRI, on the other hand.

Section 7.2. Escalation; Mediation.

(a) It is the intent of the Parties to use reasonable best efforts to resolve expeditiously any dispute, controversy or Claim between or among them with respect to the matters covered hereby that may arise from time to time on a mutually acceptable negotiated basis. In furtherance of the foregoing, a Party involved in a dispute, controversy or Claim may deliver a notice (an "Escalation Notice") demanding an in-person meeting involving representatives of the Parties at a senior level of management. Any agenda, location or procedures for such discussions or negotiations between the Parties may be established by the Parties from time to time; provided, however, that the Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to meet within 30 days of the Escalation Notice.

(b) If the Parties are not able to resolve the dispute, controversy or Claim, then the matter shall be referred to mediation. The Parties shall retain a mediator to aid the Parties in their discussions and negotiations by informally providing advice to the Parties. Any opinion expressed by the mediator shall be strictly advisory and shall not be binding on the Parties or be admissible in any other proceeding. The mediator may be chosen from a list of mediators previously selected by the Parties or by other agreement of the Parties. Costs of the mediation shall be borne equally by the Parties involved in the matter, except that each Party shall be responsible for its own expenses. Mediation shall be a prerequisite to the commencement of any Action by either Party against the other Party.

(c) In the event that any resolution of any dispute, controversy or Claim pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 7.2(a) or (b) in any way affects an agreement or arrangement between either of the Parties and a Third Party insurance carrier, the consent of such Third Party insurance carrier to such resolution, to the extent such consent is required, shall be obtained before such resolution can take effect.

Section 8.18. Performance. Each Party shall cause to be performed all actions, agreements and obligations set forth herein to be performed by each Party.
