approval, which approval shall be within Licensor's sole discretion; provided,
however, that during the term provided in subsection 5.1(b) hereof, Licensee may

the Composite Trademarks in and/or to export the same to the overseas markets in
which RV Air Conditioners have heretofore been sold (the "Existing Foreign
Territories") and to other foreign markets (the "New Foreign Territories")
(collectively, the "Foreign Territories"), upon the terms and subject to the
conditions of this License Agreement, provided such use shall not adversely
affect the Trademarks or impair the right of Licensor to use the Trademarks in
any of such Foreign Territories, and further provided that, with respect to the
use

- 8 -
of the Trademarks and the Composite Trademarks in New Foreign Territories,
Licensor shall be given reasonably adequate prior written notice (in no event
less than 120 days) of such manufacturing, sale, distribution, advertising or
export to enable it to apply, if it so desires, for registration of the
Trademarks in the New Foreign Territories or take such other action as Licensor
reasonably determines to be necessary or advisable to protect Licensor's
ownership of and right to use the Trademarks in the New Foreign Territories.
2.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i)
Licensee shall, within one year after the Closing Date, remove all signs on the
Owned Real Estate, the Leased Real Estate and on all machinery and equipment
which use the Trademarks or otherwise associate such property with Coleman; and
(ii) Licensee shall be permitted to use such stationery forms, promotional
brochures, advertising material and like items which contain the name "Coleman"
as part of the corporate name of Coleman or of Licensee to the extent and only
to the extent such forms, brochures, materials and the like were printed prior
to the Closing Date; provided, however, Licensee will use its reasonable best
efforts to cease such use of all such forms, brochures, materials and the like
as promptly as possible after the Closing Date, and provided further that upon
reprinting of any such materials the name "Coleman" shall be deleted except as
specifically permitted pursuant to the terms of this License Agreement.
2.5 Licensor hereby acknowledges receipt of a royalty from Licensee
in respect of this License Agreement.
9
- 9 -
3. Ownership and Protection of Trademarks and Related Rights.
3.1 Licensee acknowledges that the Trademarks are valid and owned by
Licensor and that Licensor has the sole right to use the Trademarks to identify
the Licensed Products. Licensee agrees not to challenge Licensor's title or any
right of Licensor in and to the Trademarks or to make any claim or take any
action adverse to Licensor's ownership of the Trademarks. Licensee further
agrees that any rights arising from the use of the Trademarks by it shall inure
to the benefit of Licensor. No right, title or interest in the Trademarks,
except the right to use the Trademarks upon the terms and subject to the
conditions of this License Agreement, is or will be transferred to Licensee by
this License Agreement. Licensee shall not have the right to institute or settle
Claims asserting or affecting rights to the Trademarks without the prior written
approval of Licensor, which approval shall be granted or withheld within the
sole discretion of Licensor. Licensee shall have no right to, and shall not,
register any of the Composite Trademarks in the Licensed Territory or in any
other jurisdiction.
3.2 Licensee agrees to notify Licensor promptly if Licensee becomes
aware of any uses of, or any applications or registrations for, a trademark or
service xxxx that conflicts with any of the Trademarks; any acts of infringement
or unfair competition involving any of the Trademarks; or any allegations or
Claims, whether or not made in a lawsuit, that the use of
10
- 10 -
any of the Trademarks by Licensor or Licensee infringes the trademark or service
xxxx or other rights of any other Person.
3.3 Licensor may, but shall not be required to, take whatever action
Licensor, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or advisable to protect the
Trademarks at Licensor's sole expense. Such action may include, without
limitation, assuming responsibility at its own expense for the defense of any
lawsuit challenging or affecting rights to the Trademarks, requiring Licensee to
grant a royalty-free sublicense to settle litigation, and/or instituting
litigation at its own expense to protect its rights to the Trademarks; provided,
however, that Licensor shall not grant any sublicense that will have a material
adverse effect on all of Licensee's rights hereunder. Should Licensor choose to
take any action with respect to the Trademarks, Licensee shall comply with all
reasonable requests for assistance in connection therewith. Any recovery as a
result of such action shall belong solely to Licensor. Should Licensor decide
not to take any action with respect to a Trademark, Licensee may request
permission to take such action at its own expense (provided such action will not
adversely affect such Trademark or impair the validity, enforceability and/or
right of Licensor to use such Trademark), which permission shall not be
unreasonably withheld by the Licensor.
3.4 Licensee shall cooperate with Licensor, at Licensor's expense,
in maintaining, renewing and protecting the Trademarks, which cooperation shall
include, without limitation, providing specimens and other proofs of use and
11
- 11 -
complying with Licensor's other reasonable requests. In the event Licensor
decides not to take any action required to maintain or renew any registration
for any Trademark, Licensee at its expense may take appropriate action to
maintain or renew any such registration in the name of and at no cost to
Licensor, and Licensor shall cooperate reasonably with Licensee, including,
without limitation, by signing required documents, to allow Licensee to effect
any such maintenance or renewal action provided that Licensor shall incur no
liability to Licensee for its failure to maintain any registrations.
3.5 Licensee agrees to defend, indemnify and hold Licensor harmless
(in accordance with Article XI of the Purchase Agreement) from and against any
Losses and Claims based upon, due to or arising out of any acts or omissions
that may be committed or suffered by Licensee or any of its agents or employees
in connection with Licensee's performance of this Agreement or in connection
with the Licensed Products manufactured, sold, distributed or advertised by
Licensee.
3.6 On the terms and subject to the conditions of this License
Agreement, Licensee may use the Trademarks and the Composite Trademarks in
packaging, labels, advertising, promotions, trade show material and related
materials, business cards, stationery, price lists, product catalogues, vehicle
signs, dealer signs, brochures and other related materials (the "Materials") in
connection with the manufacture, sale, distribution and advertising of the
Licensed Products in the same manner as heretofore used by Licensee in the
Business.
12
- 12 -
Any use of the Trademarks and the Composite Trademarks in Materials in a manner
different from that specified in this Agreement shall require the prior written
approval of Licensor which approval shall be within Licensor's sole discretion.
Licensee shall submit copies of any Materials which use any of the Trademarks in
a manner different from that specified in the first sentence of this Section 3.6
for written approval by Licensor. Upon approval of Materials pursuant to this
Section 3.6, Licensee shall have no obligation to re-submit the same prior to
each subsequent use.
3.7 Licensee shall cause to appear on the Licensed Products (to the
extent practicable) and to appear legibly on all advertising and related
Materials (but not business cards, stationery, dealer signs or telephone book
listings (other than advertisements therein)) on which the Trademarks appear the
following statement or such other statements as may be approved in writing by
the Licensor:
(a) During the term specified in subsection 5.1(a) hereof:
"The trademark Coleman in Parallelogram with Lantern Logo is a registered
trademark of The Xxxxxxx Company, Inc. used under license."
(b) During the terms specified in subsections 5.1(b) and
5.1(c) hereof: "Coleman is a registered trademark of The Xxxxxxx Company, Inc.
used under license."
4. Quality Control.
4.1 All Licensed Products identified by the Trademarks and the
Composite Trademarks shall meet the same
13
- 13 -
standards of quality, style, appearance, efficacy, safety, design and
workmanship, based upon the historical performance of RV Air Conditioners
(collectively, "Quality Standards") in effect on the Closing Date.
4.2 To control and monitor effectively the Quality Standards of the
Licensed Products identified by the Trademarks and the Composite Trademarks,
Licensor may inspect, upon reasonable advance notice and during regular business
hours, any facilities operated by Licensee for the manufacture, sale and
distribution of Licensed Products and may inspect the Licensed Products therein.
4.3 If Licensor reasonably and in good faith determines that any
Licensed Products manufactured, sold, distributed or advertised under the
Trademarks or the Composite Trademarks do not meet the Quality Standards for
such products provided in Section 4.1 hereof, Licensor shall notify Licensee in
writing of such failure (the "Defect Notice"). If Licensee shall not have met
such Quality standards and does not (i) take appropriate action to commence to
cure such defect within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Defect Notice and
(ii) cure such defect by causing such Licensed Products to meet such Quality
standards and provide documentation of such cure reasonably acceptable to
Licensor within one hundred twenty (120) days after the receipt of the Defect
Notice, Licensor may, by written notice to Licensee (the "Termination Notice"),
cancel and terminate this License Agreement as to the Licensed Products
specified in the Defect Notice which failed to meet
14
- 14 -
the Quality Standards effective upon Licensee's receipt of the Termination
Notice, whereupon Licensee will cease the manufacture, sale, distribution and/or
advertising of the Licensed Products bearing the Trademarks or the Composite
Trademarks which failed to meet the Quality Standards, and this License
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect for all other Licensed Products
other than those specified in the Termination Notice, provided that if there are
three such terminations within any rolling five year period or if any single
failure to meet the Quality Standards is so significant that it will have a
material adverse effect on the goodwill associated with the Trademarks, then
Licensor may cancel and terminate this License Agreement in whole, in all cases
subject to any sell-though rights provided in Section 6.1 hereof. Licensor
specifically acknowledges that, in addition to causing any such Licensed
Products to meet the Quality Standards for such Licensed Product provided for in
Section 4.1 hereof, an election by Licensee permanently to cease the
manufacture, sale, distribution and advertising of such Licensed Products
bearing the Trademarks and Composite Trademarks shall constitute a cure under
the provisions of this Section 4.3.
4.4 Licensee shall at all times remain in compliance with applicable
Domestic and foreign laws, ordinances, rules and regulations relating to the
manufacture, sale, distribution and advertising of the Licensed Products.
4.5 Licensee agrees that compliance with the Quality Standards set
forth in Section 4.1 is a material and essential
15
- 15 -
condition of this License Agreement and that the failure by Licensee to so
comply or otherwise to take the actions required in this Article 4 in a timely
manner shall constitute a material breach of this License Agreement.
5. Duration and Termination.
5.1 (a) The term of the license granted under this License Agreement
shall be one (1) year with respect to the Coleman Parallelogram.
(b) The term of the license granted under this License
Agreement shall be six (6) years with respect to the Coleman Name and Coleman in
Script.
(c) The term of the license granted under this License
Agreement shall be fifty (50) years with respect to the Coleman Name and Coleman
in Script insofar as it is used as part of the Composite Trademarks, provided
that if Licensee shall comply in all material respects with the terms and
conditions of this License Agreement, the term granted pursuant to this
subsection 5.1(c) shall be renewed automatically for an additional period of
fifty (50) years.
(d) Each of the terms in subsections (a), (b) and (c) above
are subject to Licensor's right to terminate this License Agreement as follows:
(i) If Licensee attempts to assign or transfer any of
its rights or to delegate any of its duties under this License Agreement or
attempts to sublicense its rights to use the Trademarks, in each case in
violation of this
16
- 16 -
License Agreement, Licensor may terminate this License Agreement effective
immediately upon giving notice to Licensee.
(ii) If Licensee becomes insolvent, files or has filed
against it a petition in bankruptcy, seeks protection from its creditors or
commits any other act of insolvency, Licensor, to the fullest extent permitted
by law, may terminate this License Agreement immediately upon giving notice to
Licensee.
(iii) If Licensee fails to meet the Quality Standards
for Licensed Products as specified in Article 4 herein, Licensor may terminate
this License Agreement pursuant to, and to the extent provided in, Section 4.3.
(iv) If Licensee fails to use any Trademark for a period
of twelve (12) months, Licensee's right to use such Trademark shall be
automatically terminated after which and without regard to any other agreement
between Licensor and Licensee, Licensor may institute use thereof to thereby
preserve the Trademark right.
(v) If Licensee fails to perform any material obligation
or covenant contained in this License Agreement to be performed by it other,
than as provided in Section 5.1(d)(i), (iii) or (iv) hereof, Licensor may
terminate this License Agreement effective sixty (60) days after giving written
notice of termination if Licensee fails to remedy any such breach or failure and
provide documentation of such remedy reasonably acceptable to Licensor within
such sixty (60) day period.
17
- 17 -
6. Duties upon Termination.
6.1 Upon termination of this License Agreement for any cause,
Licensee shall:
(i) not exercise or attempt to exercise any rights or
privileges hereunder; and
(ii) immediately discontinue the use of all Trademarks and the
Coleman Name and Coleman in Script in the Composite Trademarks in any form
whatsoever; provided, however, that (a) upon expiration of the Term or upon
termination of this License Agreement for any cause other than pursuant to
Section 5.1(d)(iii), Licensee shall be permitted for a period of nine (9) months
(the "Sell-Through Period"), to use the Trademarks and the Coleman Name and
Coleman in Script in the Composite Trademarks in connection with the sale and
distribution of RV Air Conditioners and Licensed Products, respectively, through
Licensee's customary channels of distribution and (b) upon termination of this
License Agreement in whole pursuant to Section 5.1(d)(iii), Licensee shall be
permitted to use the Trademarks and the Coleman Name and Coleman in Script in
the Composite Trademarks for the Sell-Through Period in connection with the sale
and distribution of RV Air Conditioners and Licensed Products, respectively
(other than those which were the subject of the Defect Notice resulting in the
termination) through Licensee's customary channels of distribution.
6.2 Licensee acknowledges that its failure to cease use of the
Trademarks and the Coleman Name and Coleman in
18
- 18 -
Script in the Composite Trademarks at the termination or expiration of this
License Agreement as provided above will result in immediate and irreparable
damage to Licensor. Licensee further acknowledges that its obligations under
this License Agreement are unique, that money damages may not be an adequate
remedy for the breach of such obligations, and that Licensor shall be entitled
to injunctive relief if necessary to enforce this License Agreement or any
provision hereof without the necessity of posting bond or any other security and
Licensee hereby waives the requirement of bond or security in connection
therewith.
7. Power and Authority.
7.1 Each party to this License Agreement hereby represents that: (i)
it is a corporation duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the state of its incorporation; (ii) it has full power and authority to
execute this License Agreement and any and all documents which may be related,
thereto; (iii) it has, to the extent necessary, obtained authorization from its
Board of Directors to execute this License Agreement; and (iv) this License
Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by it and constitutes
a valid and binding obligation of it, enforceable against it in accordance with
its terms, except that (a) rights to indemnification may be limited by laws of
any Governmental Entity; (b) such enforcement may be subject to bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium (whether general or
19
- 19 -
specific) or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to
creditors' rights generally; and (c) the remedy of specific performance and
injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to equitable
defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor
may be brought.
7.2 Each party to this License Agreement represents that the
execution and delivery of this License Agreement by such party will not (i)
require such party to file or register with, or obtain any permit,
authorization, consent or approval of any Governmental Entity, (ii) require such
party to obtain any authorization, consent or approval of any other Person,
(iii) violate any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws of
such party, (iv) constitute a breach of the terms or conditions of, or
constitute a default under, or violate, as the case may be, any material

undertaking to which such party is a party or by which such party is bound, or
(v) violate any order, writ, injunction or decree of any Governmental Entity by
which such party is bound.
8. Miscellaneous.

acknowledge and/or deliver or cause to be done, executed, acknowledged and/or

purposes of this License Agreement.
8.2 Exclusivity. Licensor shall not grant to any person any right or
license inconsistent with this License Agreement.

Agreement will cause irreparable damage to the other party, the exact amount of
which will be difficult to ascertain, and that the remedies at law for any such
breach will be inadequate. Accordingly, each party agrees that if it breaches
any agreement contained herein, in addition to any other remedy which may be
available at law or in equity, the other party shall be entitled to specific
performance and injunctive relief without posting bond or security in any
proceeding for specific performance or injunctive relief arising out of this
