Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 2.1 shall prohibit Revlon from granting a non-exclusive license with respect to the Licensed IP to the administrative agent or collateral agent or any other lender or secured party (or representative) under the Group Credit Agreements, which is exercisable only during the occurrence of an Event of Default thereunder.
b.Sublicensing.
i..Subject to Section 5.5.2, Revlon may sublicense its rights under the Agreement to (a) any Subsidiary of Revlon in the ordinary course of the Business or (b) subject to the terms of this Section 2.2.1, any third party on an arms-length basis.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Revlon (i) assumes liability for the acts/omissions of its sublicensees with respect to their operations pursuant to this Agreement; and (ii) guarantees payment of the Royalty owed to BrandCo pursuant to this Agreement.  Any sublicense granted to a third party pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.2.1 must: (x) include a written agreement by the applicable sublicensee to assume and otherwise comply with all of the obligations of Revlon hereunder with regard to the Licensed IP and (y) other than sublicenses granted to third parties for use of the Licensed IP in connection with Other Goods and Services, be approved in writing by BrandCo (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
ii..With respect to each sublicense granted pursuant to Section 2.2.1, so long as the sublicensee is not in default (beyond any period given to cure such default) under its sublicense, and the terms of such sublicense comply with the requirements of this Agreement, the sublicensee’s respective rights to use the Licensed IP shall survive any termination (but not expiration) of this Agreement, and Revlon’s rights and obligations under the relevant sublicense shall be assigned to BrandCo upon such termination, such assignment to be effective as of the date of termination of this Agreement (the “Sublicense Assignment Effective Date”).  To the extent that a sublicense is assigned to BrandCo pursuant to this Section 2.2.2, BrandCo shall assume Revlon’s obligations under such sublicense from and after the Sublicense Assignment Effective Date.  Except, if applicable, with respect to sublicensee defaults occurring after the Sublicense Assignment Effective Date, Revlon shall require each sublicensee to comply with the 
5
Doc#: Europe1:2132252v1
#93142918v9 






terms of the applicable sublicense and the terms of this Agreement applicable to sublicensees, and Revlon shall be liable to BrandCo for any non-compliance by any sublicensee with any such terms.
c.Reservation of Rights/Exclusions.  BrandCo reserves all rights not expressly granted to Revlon under this Agreement and Revlon agrees that BrandCo shall have the right to enforce any such rights against any party.  The License is not intended as and is not the grant of a license, immunity, or any other rights to any third party, either by implication or by estoppel.
d.Grant of License by Revlon.  Subject to the terms and limitations set forth in this Agreement, Revlon, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, hereby grants to BrandCo and its assigns a non-exclusive, perpetual, worldwide, irrevocable, royalty-free, fully paid-up, sublicensable and transferable license to BrandCo to practice, use and exploit the Revlon Licensed Intellectual Property in connection with any and all products now known or hereafter created.
3.Rights to Licensed IP
a.In exchange for the agreements and consideration provided for in this Agreement, unless otherwise specified in and subject to the terms of this Agreement, Revlon has the exclusive right (even as to BrandCo) in the Territory, during the Term, to: (a) use the Licensed IP in commerce or otherwise; (b) license others to use the Licensed IP; (c) register the Licensed IP with any federal or state governmental authority; (d) commence an action for infringement of the Licensed IP; and (e) defend and settle any claims that Revlon’s use of the Licensed IP infringes or otherwise violates the rights of a third party.
b.As between the Parties, and except as provided in this Agreement, Revlon shall be solely responsible for the payment of all costs associated with its exercise of the rights set forth in this Section 3 during the Term, including, without limitation, all costs associated with the operation of the Business under the Licensed IP, and the negotiation, implementation and management of any license arrangements for the Licensed IP.
4.License Fees
a.Royalty.  Within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar month during the Term, Revlon shall pay to BrandCo a royalty of ten percent (10%) of the Net Sales recorded by Revlon for the sales of Licensed Products during the respective preceding calendar month (the “Royalty”), which Royalty shall be pro-rated for the first calendar month of the Term.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, and for so long as such Event of Default remains uncured, the Royalty shall increase to twelve percent (12%).  Immediately as of the date that such Event of Default is cured, the Royalty shall revert to ten percent (10%).
i..Revlon shall have the right to deduct from any payment of Royalties an amount sufficient to cover the cost and expense actually paid of customary levels of Directors and Officers insurance in an amount not to exceed twenty-five thousand ($25,000) annually and 
6
Doc#: Europe1:2132252v1
#93142918v9 






solely to the extent the services covered by such insurance are provided to BrandCo’s directors and officers.
a.Guaranteed Minimum Royalty.  Commencing as of the third calendar quarter of 2021, if, for any reason, the total Royalty Revlon pays to BrandCo under Section 4.1 for any calendar year is less than the amount of the Guaranteed Minimum Royalty for such year, then within thirty (30) days after the end of such calendar year, Revlon shall pay to BrandCo the shortfall between the amounts actually paid and the Guaranteed Minimum Royalty for the applicable calendar year (the “GMR Payment”). The Parties acknowledge and agree that (a) the Guaranteed Minimum Royalty shall be (i) reduced pro-rata for calendar year 2021 solely to take into account that Revlon’s obligation to pay to BrandCo the GMR Payment commences as of the third calendar quarter of 2021 and (ii) increased by five percent (5%) on an annual basis, commencing on the first day of the third calendar quarter of 2022 and on each anniversary thereafter, and (b) if this Agreement terminates for any reason, the Guaranteed Minimum Royalty for that year shall be reduced pro-rata and the GMR Payment based on the shortfall between the amounts actually paid and the prorated Guaranteed Minimum Royalty shall be due immediately upon such termination. 
b.Payments and Royalty Statements.
i..All Royalties and any other sums payable under this Agreement shall be paid in U.S. dollars by wire transfer to a bank account to be designated in writing by BrandCo.  For the purpose of converting the local currency in which any royalties arise into U.S. dollars, the rate of exchange to be applied shall be that used by Revlon in preparing its most recent quarterly filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
ii..All payments to BrandCo pursuant to this Section 4 shall be accompanied by an accurate and complete statement (“Royalty Statement”), which shall be audited each fiscal year by a nationally recognized accounting firm, delivered to BrandCo showing: (a) the total Net Sales recorded by Revlon for the sales of Licensed Products in the relevant calendar month and (b) the calendar month for which the Royalty or Guaranteed Minimum Royalty was calculated.
c.Annual Audit.  Revlon shall keep, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and sublicensees to keep, full, true and accurate books and records containing all particulars relevant to its sales of Licensed Products in sufficient detail to verify the amounts payable by it under this Agreement.  During the Term of this Agreement and for a period of one (1) year thereafter, Revlon shall cause to have performed an audit of its books and records, and any other records related to the Licensed Products, after the end of each calendar year, by an independent certified public accountant in connection with its annual audit for the purpose of determining the correctness of the Royalty or Guaranteed Minimum Royalty, if applicable, paid and the Royalty Statements delivered for that calendar year under this Agreement.  Immediately upon receipt of an audit report from the independent certified public accountant, Revlon shall provide written notice to BrandCo of whether the Royalty Statements and Royalties due under this Agreement were correctly made, the amounts of error in such payments, and the nature and extent of the errors of the applicable Royalty Statements and Royalties, if any.  If the audit reveals a deficiency of any Royalty due or paid by Revlon to BrandCo under this Agreement, Revlon 
7
Doc#: Europe1:2132252v1
#93142918v9 






shall, within fifteen (15) days of receipt of such written notice, cure the deficiency by making a payment to BrandCo of said deficiency.  Revlon shall bear the full cost of such audits, including reasonable expenses related thereto.
5.Covenants
a.Ownership.  Revlon acknowledges and agrees that the Licensed IP is and shall remain the sole property of BrandCo and that it has no claim whatsoever to any rights of ownership in the Licensed IP and covenants that no such claim will be made in the future.
b.Licensed Products.  Revlon covenants and agrees that it shall use reasonable best efforts to continue to market, advertise, sell and distribute Licensed Products in the Territory to maximize Royalties payable under this Agreement in the operation of the Business, subject to the brand support commitment set forth in Section 6.16 of the BrandCo Credit Agreement.
c.Use of Licensed Marks.  Revlon agrees that it shall (a) continue to use each Licensed Mark owned by BrandCo and material to the conduct of the Business in order to maintain that Licensed Mark in full force free from any claim of abandonment for non-use, (b) maintain substantially the same (or higher) quality of Licensed Products and Services offered under each such Licensed Mark as are currently maintained on the Effective Date, (c) use (and cause each of its licensees and sublicensees to use) each such Licensed Mark with the appropriate notice of registration and all other notices and legends required by applicable law to maintain that Licensed Mark consistent with past practice, (d) not adopt or use (and shall ensure that none of its licensees or sublicensees adopt or use) any mark which is confusingly similar to, or a colorable imitation of, any such Licensed Mark unless BrandCo obtains a perfected security interest (to the extent perfection is possible in accordance with law) in that mark and (e) not knowingly (and not knowingly permit any licensee or sublicensee thereof to) do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any such Licensed Mark might become invalidated or impaired in any material way.
d.Use Inures to Benefit of BrandCo.  Revlon agrees that any and all uses by it (or by any of its licensees or sublicensees) of the Licensed Marks shall inure to the benefit of BrandCo, including any goodwill, rights, title or interest that might be acquired by the use of any of the Licensed Marks by Revlon.  If Revlon obtains any goodwill, rights, title or interest in or to any of the Licensed Marks (other than the rights expressly granted under this Agreement), Revlon hereby irrevocably assigns and transfers all of such goodwill, rights, title and interest to BrandCo.
e.Use of Formulas; Restriction on Development or Creation Post-Termination.
i..BrandCo hereby acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding the scope of the License as set forth in Section 2.1, Revlon may, in its reasonable business judgment, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, use the Licensed Formulas included in the License, together with any updates, revisions, modifications, amendments or variations thereto and all related documentation, in Revlon’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ or any of its or their licensees’ products that are either in existence as of the Effective Date or created, developed or acquired during the 
8
Doc#: Europe1:2132252v1
#93142918v9 






Term; provided that (a) any such use of the Licensed Formulas is in the ordinary course of business or consistent with Revlon’s  and its Subsidiaries’ past practices or not otherwise materially adverse to the interest of the Lenders (as defined in the BrandCo Credit Agreement) and (b) on each anniversary of the Effective Date, Revlon shall provide to the Collateral Agent a statement, substantially in the form of Exhibit F, listing (i) which (if any) of the Licensed Formulas have been used by Revlon or its Subsidiaries or any of its or their licensees in products other than those branded with, or manufactured under, any BrandCo Collateral (as defined in the BrandCo Credit Agreement) and (ii) the product names and product categories for such products.
ii..Revlon, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, covenants and agrees that it will not, and will not authorize any third party on its behalf to, commencing as of the termination of this Agreement, use any Licensed Formulas included in the License, or any updates, revisions, modifications, amendments or variations thereto or related documentation, in any new product developed, created or acquired after termination.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any use of the Licensed Formulas in Revlon’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ or any of its or their licensees’ products in existence as of the date of termination are expressly permitted and shall not be a violation of the restriction set forth in this Section 5.5.2 or a breach of the License.
6.Quality Control for the Licensed Marks
a.All Licensed Products and Services offered by Revlon under the Licensed Marks in the Territory during the Term shall conform to standards of quality at least comparable to that of the products and Services offered under the Licensed Marks as of the Effective Date.  Upon BrandCo’s written request, Revlon shall, at its own expense, supply representative samples of the Licensed Products (including related marketing, advertising, and promotional materials) for BrandCo’s review and approval.  If BrandCo reasonably determines that Revlon fails to maintain a consistent level of quality in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, then BrandCo shall notify Revlon of any such alleged deficiencies, and Revlon shall take commercially reasonable steps to remedy such deficiencies to BrandCo’s reasonable satisfaction.  BrandCo shall have the right at reasonable times to inspect the production, service, retail or other facilities of Revlon or any sublicensees for the purpose of determining whether Revlon or any sublicensee is adhering to the requirements of this Agreement relating to the nature and quality of the Licensed Products and Services.
b.Revlon shall not knowingly take any action with the Licensed Marks that is intended to adversely affect the Licensed Marks, the goodwill associated with the Licensed Marks, and/or the reputation of BrandCo or the Business. Revlon’s use of the Licensed Marks shall at all times comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations that govern its use of the Licensed Marks and the conduct of the Business.
c.As between the Parties, Revlon shall bear all costs related to any recall of Licensed Products featuring the Licensed Marks, whether voluntary or required by a government entity or a court order.  If Revlon determines that a recall of Licensed Products is necessary, Revlon shall notify BrandCo within three (3) days of such determination and shall consult with BrandCo, and BrandCo must approve (or not expressly object to) all aspects of Revlon’s handling of such recall, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed by BrandCo.

Revlon shall keep BrandCo fully informed of progress with regard to the preparation, filing, prosecution, and maintenance of any Licensed Marks and Licensed Patents in the Territory, and shall provide BrandCo with a quarterly report of such activities undertaken in the preceding calendar quarter.
c.As between the Parties, and except as provided in this Agreement, Revlon shall be solely responsible for the payment of all costs associated with the enforcement, prosecution, and maintenance of the registrations for and applications for registration of the Licensed Marks and the Licensed Patents, and the enforcement and defense of the Licensed Marks and the Licensed Patents.
d.Each Party shall immediately inform the other of (a) any potential infringements, dilution, or other misuse of any Licensed Mark in the Territory, or use of any marks or designs confusingly similar to any Licensed Mark, or if either Party receives notice of any claims from any third party alleging that any Licensed Mark (or such Party’s use thereof) infringes or otherwise violates the rights of a third party or (b) any suspected infringement or other violation of any Licensed Patents in the Territory, or if either Party receives notice of any claims from any third party challenging the Licensed Patents (or such Party’s use thereof).  Revlon shall have the first right to commence, control or respond to any such action or claim, and the authority and sole control of the defense or settlement of such claim, including the negotiation, litigation, prosecution or settlement of any such action or claim, as well as the first right to recover profits and damages from such actions and shall bear the fees and costs of any such claim.

10
Doc#: Europe1:2132252v1
#93142918v9 






foregoing, including being named as a party in any related court proceedings.  Revlon shall provide BrandCo copies of all notices, complaints, court proceedings, and other documentation relating to the foregoing, and BrandCo will have the option to participate in any such proceeding and be represented by counsel of its choosing at its cost and expense.
e.If Revlon fails to bring an action or proceeding with respect to infringement of the Licensed Marks within ninety (90) days following notice by BrandCo of any alleged third party infringement, dilution or misuse of the Licensed Marks or use of confusingly similar marks to any Licensed Mark, and such alleged third party infringement, dilution or misuse is of a nature that a similarly situated trademark owner in the industry would pursue, then BrandCo shall have the right to bring and control any such action, by counsel mutually acceptable to BrandCo and Revlon, and the right to settle such action and recover profits and damages from such action.  To the extent Revlon elected not to take such action based on its reasonable business judgment that pursuing such an action would be detrimental or disadvantageous to the Business, BrandCo shall take such considerations into account prior to assuming control of any such action.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Revlon acknowledges and agrees that its reasonable business judgment shall be made solely based on the conduct of the Business and shall not include consideration of Revlon’s or its Subsidiaries’ (a) other businesses or brands or (b) business relationships with respect to alleged infringers.  To the extent BrandCo assumes such control of such an action, all reasonable costs associated with such action shall be at Revlon’s sole expense.  Revlon shall cooperate with all reasonable requests for assistance by BrandCo in connection with the foregoing, including being named as a party in any related court proceedings.

The

rights of the Parties, and their successors in interest, as among themselves shall be governed by the terms of this Agreement, and the right of any Party or successor in interest to assign, sell or otherwise transfer or deal with its interests under this Agreement shall be subject to the limitations and restrictions of this Agreement.  Each Party acknowledges and consents to the collateral assignment by BrandCo to the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties, of all of BrandCo’s right, title and interest in and to this Agreement and agrees that the Collateral Agent and its successors and permitted assigns shall be an express third party beneficiary of this Agreement and the provisions of this Agreement are intended for the benefit of and will be enforceable by and shall not be amended without the consent of the Collateral Agent and its successors and permitted assigns in their respective capacity as Collateral Agent on behalf of itself and the other Secured Parties.

f.Remedies.  Subject to Section 13.3, the remedies of the Parties under this Agreement are cumulative and shall not exclude any other remedies to which a Party may be lawfully entitled.
g.No Waiver.  The failure of any Party to insist on strict performance of a covenant or of any obligation in this Agreement shall not be a waiver of such Party’s right to demand strict compliance therewith in the future, nor shall the same be construed as a novation of this Agreement.
h.Captions.  Titles or captions of articles and paragraphs contained in this Agreement are inserted only as a matter of convenience and for reference, and in no way define, limit, extend or describe the scope of this Agreement or the intent of any provision hereof.
i.Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement.  A signed copy of this Agreement delivered by facsimile, e-mail, or other means of electronic transmission (to which a signed PDF copy is attached) shall be deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Agreement.
j.Computation of Time.  Whenever the last day for the exercise of any privilege or the discharge of any duty hereunder shall fall on a Saturday, Sunday or any public or legal holiday, whether local or national, the person having such privilege or duty shall have until 5:00 p.m. local time on the next succeeding business day to exercise such privilege or to discharge such duty.
k.Severability.  In the event any provision, clause, sentence, phrase or word hereof, or the application thereof in any circumstances, is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder hereof, or of the application of any such provision, sentence, clause, phrase or word in any other circumstances.

l.Costs and Expenses.  Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Party shall bear all fees and expenses incurred by it in performing its obligations under this Agreement.
m.Governing Law; Forum.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflicts of laws principles thereof to the extent that the laws of another jurisdiction would apply as a result of the application thereof.  The Parties each hereby irrevocably submit (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York state or federal court sitting in the borough of Manhattan, New York City, State of New York, over any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably agree that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such New York state or federal court.  The Parties hereto each hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection each may now or hereafter have, to remove any such action or proceeding, once commenced, to another court on the grounds of forum non conveniens or otherwise.
n.Further Assurances. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, Revlon shall take (or shall cause to be taken) such actions as any Agent may reasonably request from time to time to ensure that the Royalties are guaranteed by the Guarantors (as defined in the BrandCo Credit Agreement).
o.Intellectual Property License.  Without limiting BrandCo’s termination rights pursuant to Section 13, the Parties intend that this Agreement is a license to use “intellectual property” as such term is defined in the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and that Revlon and BrandCo will each, as applicable, be entitled to all the benefits of a licensee of intellectual property pursuant to 11 U.S.C. §365(n).  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in recognition of the unique nature of the relationship between the Parties, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the rights, obligations and benefits of this Agreement shall be personal to Revlon, and BrandCo shall not be required to accept performance from, or render performance to, any person or entity other than Revlon. Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. §365(c)(1)(A) (as it may be amended from time to time, and including any successor to such provision), in the event of any Bankruptcy of Revlon, this Agreement may not be assumed or assigned by Revlon (or any of its successors, including any trustee or debtor-in-possession) and BrandCo shall be excused from rendering performance to, or accepting performance from, Revlon or any such successors.
