SEARS shall, upon STANLEY’s request, join in an action and otherwise provide STANLEY with such assistance and information as STANLEY may reasonably request in connection with taking such action; provided, that STANLEY shall reimburse SEARS for its reasonable costs and expenses in connection with such assistance. If STANLEY fails to take such action within thirty (30) days after a relevant notification by SEARS, SEARS shall have the right to take such action. If SEARS elects to take such action, it shall notify STANLEY of its intent to do so and STANLEY shall have up to thirty (30) days thereafter to notify SEARS that it intends to join in such action; and in such event, both Parties shall share equally the expense and any recovery and mutually agree on the action strategy and any settlement. If STANLEY chooses not to join SEARS in such action, SEARS shall have the right to proceed with such action or proceeding, and any such action or proceeding shall be at the expense of and under the exclusive control of SEARS, and all recovery shall be SEARS’ at its expense and for its benefit, and STANLEY shall, at SEARS’ request, provide such assistance and information as SEARS may reasonably request in connection with taking such action; provided, that SEARS shall reimburse STANLEY for its reasonable costs and expenses in connection with such assistance. During any such litigation: (A) SEARS shall act in good faith to preserve and enhance STANLEY’s rights in the Licensed IP and shall keep STANLEY advised as to the status of the litigation; and (B) STANLEY shall not enter into any settlement in derogation of SEARS’ rights.

9. BOOKS AND RECORDS

(a)    Beginning in the first month of Contract Year 16, SEARS shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, provide STANLEY and its officers, directors, Affiliates, employees and representatives, upon reasonable notice, reasonable access during normal business hours to the books and records of SEARS and its Affiliates, and to the officers, directors, employees and representatives of SEARS and its Affiliates, including SEARS’ auditors and their work papers, in each case for purposes of confirming SEARS’ compliance with its obligations relating to the Royalty Payments under this Agreement.

- 13 -

(b)    With effect from the first month of Contract Year 16, upon STANLEY’s reasonable request, SEARS shall make available to STANLEY’s and its (and its Affiliates’) employees, agents, advisors, accountants or other representatives, upon reasonable notice, reasonable access during normal business hours to such information as may reasonably be requested by such Persons for the purposes of verifying the information (including SEARS’ calculations) set forth in any Royalty Statement.

10. ROYALTY STATEMENTS REVIEW

(a)    STANLEY shall have 45 calendar days after receipt of any Royalty Statement (the “Royalty Statement Review Period”) to review it. During the Royalty Statement Review Period, SEARS agrees that STANLEY and its Affiliates’ employees, agents, advisors, accountants or other representatives, shall be provided promptly, upon reasonable notice, reasonable access during normal business hours to the accountants, representatives, information and records of SEARS and its respective Affiliates (including the right to take copies thereof) as may be requested by STANLEY for purposes of the verification any amounts or calculations set forth in any Royalty Statement.

(b)    Prior to the expiration of the Royalty Statement Review Period, STANLEY may object to SEARS’ determination(s) or calculations set forth in the applicable Royalty Statement, including, in each case, any component thereof, or any other calculation or determination or amount of detail provided therein, by delivering (in each case) a written notice of objection to SEARS (each such notice, an “Objection Notice”). Any Objection Notice shall state, in reasonable detail, the basis for such objection, the Royalty Statement to which the Objection Notice relates, as well as the amount(s) and calculation(s) in dispute.

(c)    If STANLEY fails to deliver an Objection Notice to SEARS prior to the expiration of the applicable Royalty Statement Review Period, then the calculations set forth in the relevant Royalty Statement shall be final and binding on the Parties. In the case of the determination of the amount of the Royalty Payment for any applicable period, if STANLEY fails to deliver an Objection Notice in respect of such period as aforesaid, the Royalty Amount in respect of such period shall be deemed to be the amount set forth in the applicable Royalty Statement for all purposes under this Agreement.

(d)    If STANLEY timely delivers an Objection Notice in respect of one or more Royalty Statements, STANLEY and SEARS shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the relevant disputed items.

(e)    If STANLEY and SEARS are unable to reach agreement within 30 days after the date of delivery of an Objection Notice (or any longer period that may be agreed between them to continue such discussions), all unresolved disputed items related to that Objection Notice shall be promptly submitted for resolution to the Accountant.

(f)    The Accountant shall act as an arbitrator to determine, based solely on information provided to it by STANLEY or SEARS, and not by independent review, and without shifting the burden of proof to either STANLEY or SEARS, only those unresolved items that are specified in the Objection Notice and shall be limited to those adjustments, if

- 14 -

any, required to be made to the relevant Royalty Statement to comply with the provisions of this Agreement. The Accountant shall, within 60 days after submission to it of the dispute, determine and report to SEARS and STANLEY upon such remaining disputed items or calculations, and such report shall be final and binding on the Parties.

(g)    The final determination of the Accountant shall fall within the range of values assigned to such items in dispute between the Parties. SEARS and STANLEY shall make reasonably available to the Accountant all relevant books, records and other supporting information required to determine the amount of the Royalty Payment (and any element of the calculation thereof), and any other items reasonably requested by the Accountant. The fees and disbursements of the Accountant shall be borne equally by STANLEY and SEARS.

(h)    If the amount of a Royalty Payment payable under this Agreement, as finally determined in accordance with this Article 10 (whether by agreement between the Parties or by determination of the Accountant), is greater than the applicable Royalty Payment amount originally determined by SEARS, SEARS shall pay to STANLEY an amount (in cash) equal to the applicable Royalty Payment as determined by the Accountant (or, if payment of SEARS’ determination of the applicable Royalty Payment has already been made, the excess of such amount over the Royalty Payment amount), as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event within ten (10) days of the final determination of the amount of the applicable Royalty Payment by the Accountant in accordance with this Article 10.

11. ADDITIONAL UNDERTAKINGS OF SEARS

(a)    SEARS hereby covenants that SEARS and its Affiliates will comply with all laws, regulations and industry standards applicable to the packaging, marketing and distribution of the Licensed Products, and will have and maintain in place throughout the term of this Agreement policies and procedures to ensure compliance with its obligations set forth above, in each case consistent with any such existing policies and procedures of SEARS. SEARS further agrees to use reasonable efforts to include, in any Contract entered into after the Effective Date relating to the manufacture of Licensed Products between SEARS (or its Affiliates) and a third party manufacturer or supplier, a provision stating that such manufacturer or supplier shall comply with all laws, regulations and industry standards applicable to the manufacturing of the Licensed Products, or a substantially equivalent provision.

(b)    SEARS shall be responsible for the development, manufacture, production, marketing, sale, and distribution of the Licensed Products in connection with the Retained Business and will bear all related costs associated therewith.

- 17 -

(iii)    the capability, adequacy, performance, quality, design, manufacture, marketing, sale or distribution of any products manufactured by STANLEY carrying any CRAFTSMAN mark (“STANLEY Products”), including without limitation, any action founded, in whole or in part, on negligence, contract, warranty, product liability, strict liability or any alleged defect or deficiency in the STANLEY Products, provided, however that this Section 14(b)(iii) shall not apply to STANLEY Products acquired as Inventory under the Purchase and Sale Agreement or acquired under the Transition Services Agreement;

(c)    Indemnification Procedures. Indemnification under this Article 14 shall be subject to the following procedures.

(i)    Notice. The Party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly give the Party obligated by this Agreement to provide indemnity (the “Indemnifying Party”) written notice that it wishes to seek indemnification under this Agreement. Such notice shall provide a detailed description of the facts and circumstances giving rise to such claim. The failure of the Indemnified Party to give prompt notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability it may have to the Indemnified Party hereunder or otherwise, except to the extent that any delay or failure results in actual prejudice to the rights of the Indemnifying Party, and provided further that the Indemnifying Party shall have no obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party for the costs of any defense, including attorney’s fees, incurred by the Indemnified Party prior to the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of such notice. If the claim relates to the commencement of any suit or proceeding by a third party, any such notice shall be accompanied by a copy of any papers served on or delivered to the Indemnified Party in connection with the third party claim.

- 18 -

(ii)    Defense of Claims. If any claim is brought against the Indemnified Party in respect of which the Indemnified Party has notified the Indemnifying Party that it intends to seek indemnification from the Indemnifying Party for Losses covered by this Agreement and if the Indemnifying Party acknowledges and accepts responsibility without reservation to indemnify the Indemnified Party hereunder, then the Indemnifying Party shall assume sole control over the defense and settlement of such claim; provided, however, that:

(A) the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in, but not control, the defense of such claim and to employ counsel at its own expense to participate in the defense of such claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall have no further liability to the Indemnified Party for any legal fees or expenses incurred in connection with the claim;

(B) the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written approval of the Indemnified Party before (x) entering into any settlement of such claim that would require the Indemnified Party to take any action other than the payment of money, or (y) ceasing to defend against such claim, which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed;

(C) the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party of its election to assume control of the defense of any such claim within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of the action from the Indemnified Party; and

(D) the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in the defense of any claim for which indemnification is sought.

In the event the Indemnifying Party does not accept responsibility without reservation to indemnify the Indemnified Party hereunder, then the Indemnified Party shall retain sole control over the defense and settlement of such claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall remain obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party for all Losses, including without limitation the costs of any defense, including attorney’s fees, incurred by the Indemnified Party.

(iii)    If the Indemnifying Party makes any payment on a claim for which indemnification is sought, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to all rights and remedies of the Indemnified Party to any insurance benefits or other claim or benefits of the Indemnified Party with respect to such claim, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the assessment, assertion, negotiation, prosecution, and settlement of such rights of subrogation.

(d)    Warranty Arrangement Under Purchase and Sale Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Article 14 shall not apply to any liability arising under any product warranty claim. Section 5.13 of the Purchase and Sale Agreement shall govern all product warranty claims.

15. TERM OF LICENSE; TERMINATION

(a)    Term. This Agreement shall be effective as of the Effective Date and shall remain in effect unless terminated for material breach in accordance with the provisions of this Article 15.

(b)    Termination by STANLEY.

i.    STANLEY shall have the right to terminate this Agreement (including all sublicenses granted by SEARS pursuant to Section 2(d)) in accordance with this Section 15(b) where any one or more of the following events (herein called “Material Defaults”) has occurred and continues un-remedied for ninety (90) days (or such longer as set forth herein) from the date on which SEARS receives written notice of such Material Default from STANLEY:

a. If SEARS (or, subject to this Section 15(b), its Permitted Sublicensees, other than SHO) shall materially breach (and fail to cure, as aforesaid) any of the material terms of this Agreement; or

b. If SEARS ceases to sell or sublicense Licensed Products, such that no such License Products are sold for any consecutive six (6) month period.

ii.    If STANLEY reasonably believes that a Material Default has occurred (and has not been cured), it may provide written notice to SEARS specifying, in reasonable detail, the nature of such alleged Material Default (a “Default Notice”).

iii.    Subject to Section 15(b)iv and Section 15(b)xi, if an alleged Material Default cannot be cured within ninety (90) days after the date of the Default Notice, but SEARS has commenced and is continuing to make commercially reasonable efforts to cure such Material Default within such ninety (90) day period, then the cure period shall be extended until SEARS has stopped making commercially reasonable efforts to cure such Material Default, such extension not to exceed a further forty-five (45) days (such total period (the “Default Cure Period”) being one hundred thirty-five (135) days from the date of the Default Notice).

iv.    Subject to Section 15(b)xi, if an alleged Material Default involves a purported material breach by an OEM Permitted Sublicensee, then, (A) in addition to the Default Cure Period SEARS shall have a further seventy-five (75) day period within which to make commercially reasonably efforts to cure the breach of such Permitted Sublicensee, and (B) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if prior to the end of such further seventy-five (75) day period, SEARS provides written notice to such Permitted Sublicensee terminating the relevant sublicense, no Material Default shall be deemed to have occurred for any purpose under this Agreement (and, accordingly, STANLEY may not exercise its termination right under Section 15(b)i in such circumstances).

v.    SEARS shall have thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of any Default Notice (the “Initial Investigation Period”) within which to investigate the alleged Material Default and take such steps as it may deem appropriate, including making efforts to cure such Material Default.

- 20 -

vi.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (and without prejudice to its right to seek to cure any alleged Material Default), SEARS may, within the Initial Investigation Period, in its sole discretion, refer the issue of whether or not the matter or matters specified in a Default Notice constitutes a Material Default to final and binding arbitration under the Delaware Rapid Arbitration Act (the “DRAA,” 10 Del. C. § 5801 et seq.) and the Delaware Rapid Arbitration Rules promulgated thereunder by the Supreme Court of the State of Delaware (“Rules”) in effect at the time of the date of delivery of the notice of arbitration as provided below, except as modified herein in accordance with the DRAA. The arbitration shall be commenced by a written notice of arbitration sent by SEARS to STANLEY. The arbitral panel shall consist of, and the arbitration shall be conducted by, three arbitrators (the “Tribunal”), who, pursuant to DRAA § 5801(3)(b), are and shall be authorized to exercise any power of a sole arbitrator by a majority vote. The members of the Tribunal shall be appointed by the Delaware Court of Chancery in accordance with DRAA § 5805 and Delaware Court of Chancery Rule 96. The Delaware Court of Chancery shall appoint one of the three arbitrators as the chair of the Tribunal. In the event that such an arbitration is commenced, no Material Default will be deemed to have occurred unless and until the Tribunal shall have determined that a Material Default shall have occurred.

vii.    The legal seat of the arbitration shall be the State of Delaware, but the evidentiary and other hearings shall be conducted in location(s) determined by the chair of the Tribunal. The Tribunal shall hold, as promptly as practicable, telephonically or in person, a preliminary hearing with the parties and/or their counsel to establish a schedule for the proceedings of the Tribunal. The arbitration hearing shall be conducted as promptly as practicable, taking into account the nature of the claims and any facts and circumstances the Tribunal deems relevant and may, in the discretion of the Tribunal, be conducted over the course of one or more days. The Tribunal shall set a schedule that will permit the Tribunal to issue a decision no later than 60 calendar days following the selection of the Tribunal.

viii.    In connection with any arbitration proceeding hereunder, the Tribunal shall allow reasonable requests for the production of documents relevant to the dispute and for the taking of depositions.

ix.    The parties shall bear their own costs incurred in connection with the arbitration and share equally the fees and expenses of the Tribunal and the costs of administration.

x.    It is understood and agreed that a decision by SEARS not to refer any question to arbitration shall not prejudice any of its rights or remedies.

xi.    In the event that SEARS elects to arbitrate pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Default Cure Period referred to in this Section 15(b) shall end on the later of (x) the 135^th day, or the 210^th day in the case of an OEM Permitted Sublicensee, as applicable, after the date of the Default Notice and (y) the 30^th day following delivery by the Tribunal of its decision.

xii.    This Section 15(b) shall be subject to the laws of the State of Delaware.

- 21 -

(c)    SHO. Any breach or alleged breach by SHO of the SHO Agreement or of any sublicense granted under this Agreement shall be subject to the terms of Section 5.18 of the Purchase and Sale Agreement. Subject to the foregoing, SEARS shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause each SHO Entity to comply with the provisions hereof; provided, however, that if, notwithstanding such efforts, any SHO Entity breaches any term of this Agreement, such breach shall not constitute a Material Default by SEARS but can constitute a Material Default by such SHO Entity that shall entitle STANLEY to terminate the sublicense to such SHO Entity. A material breach of this Agreement by SHO shall entitle STANLEY to terminate the sublicense to SHO, subject to the applicable Default Cure Period set forth above (but without any arbitration rights).

(d)    Termination by SEARS. SEARS shall have the right to terminate this Agreement on written notice to STANLEY.

(e)    Post-Termination License to Other Licensed IP. STANLEY hereby grants to SEARS and its Affiliates, effective immediately prior to termination of this Agreement by either Party (and surviving any such termination), a fully-paid, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicenseable, perpetual and irrevocable license, in connection with the Retained Business, to use any and all Other Licensed IP. This Section 15(e) shall survive termination of this Agreement.

16. FINAL STATEMENT UPON TERMINATION OR EXPIRATION

SEARS shall deliver, as soon as practicable, to STANLEY, following expiration or termination of this Agreement, a statement indicating the number and description of the Licensed Products on hand. Except as indicated below, following a termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article 15, SEARS and its Affiliates may each continue to distribute and sell their remaining Licensed Products in inventory or on order for a period (“Sell-Off Period”) not to exceed three hundred and sixty-five (365) days subject to payment of any outstanding royalties Royalty Payments in relation to such Licensed Products. During such period, SEARS and its Affiliates may continue to use the rights granted hereby, subject to compliance with all terms hereof. Immediately upon expiration of the Sell-Off Period, SEARS shall furnish STANLEY a detailed statement certified by an officer of SEARS showing the number and description of the Licensed Products on hand in its inventory and shall dispose of such inventory at STANLEY’s direction.

17. CONFIDENTIALITY

Each Party shall keep in confidence and shall not disclose to any third-party, or use other than in performance of this Agreement, any Confidential and Proprietary Information (defined below) received from the other Party in connection with the performance of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Confidential and Proprietary Information” shall mean (i) any and all confidential and proprietary information which is disclosed to or acquired by a Party in connection with its performance of this Agreement or obtained by a Party in the course of disclosures and discussions with the other Party, provided such information is treated as confidential and proprietary by such owning Party, and (ii) the terms of this Agreement.

These obligations of confidentiality and non-use shall survive for a period of three (3) years following any termination of this Agreement. The restrictions in this Section shall not apply to any information which: (i) is at the time of disclosure available to the general public or at a later date becomes public domain information or available through no violation of this Agreement; (ii) as shown by written records, was specifically known to, or in possession of, the receiving Party at the time of its disclosure by the owning Party or its agent(s); (iii) as shown by written records, is hereafter acquired by the non-owning Party through a third-party which is not thereby breaching any obligation of confidence and has a bona fide right to disclose such information; (iv) is required to be disclosed pursuant to a judicial order or otherwise by law; or (v) is independently developed by the non-owning Party without reference to any of the owning Party’s Confidential Information. Neither Party’s Affiliates and representatives shall be considered third parties for purposes of the obligations of confidentiality under this Article 17. It is understood and agreed that any information that may identify, or is otherwise related to, any Person that is a member of the “Craftsman Club” prior to the Effective Date is Confidential and Proprietary Information of SEARS.

18. ASSIGNMENT

(a)    Neither Party shall be entitled to assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party except as provided in this Article 18.

In addition to the foregoing, SEARS and its Affiliates (but not a permitted transferee thereof) may grant limited sublicenses of the rights granted to it hereunder to its secured lenders and their agents to the extent reasonably necessary to permit such lenders and their agents to enforce customary rights and remedies of secured parties with respect to branded inventory.

(ii)    Each Party irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any New York state or federal court in any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such Action may be heard and determined in such New York state or federal court. Each Party hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such Action. The Parties further agree, to the extent permitted by Law, that final and unappealable judgment against any of them in any Action contemplated above shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any other jurisdiction within or outside the United States by suit on the judgment, a certified copy of which shall be conclusive evidence of the fact and amount of such judgment.

(iii)    EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY ANY OF THEM AGAINST THE OTHER ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ADMINISTRATION THEREOF OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN OR THEREIN.

PROCEEDING, COUNTERCLAIM OR ANY OTHER LITIGATION PROCEDURE BASED UPON, OR ARISING OUT OF, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED INSTRUMENTS OR THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE PARTIES.

EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS SET FORTH ABOVE IN THIS SECTION 19(f). NO PARTY HAS IN ANY WAY AGREED WITH OR REPRESENTED TO THE OTHER PARTY THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS 19(f) WILL NOT BE FULLY ENFORCED IN ALL INSTANCES.

(g)    Force Majeure.

(h)    Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such a determination, 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 a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

(i)    Construction. The Parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (a) each Party reviewed and negotiated the terms and provisions of this Agreement; and (b) the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be construed fairly in accordance with their plain meaning, regardless of which Party was generally responsible for the preparation of this Agreement.
