and together with the Comic Books, the Graphic Novels, the Novels and the Games, the “Products.”) Products described
in (i) (ii) and (iii) above will be referred to as “Book Products” and Products described in (iv) and (v) above will

version thereof; and


 


WHEREAS,
Buyer is engaged in the business of selling and distributing Comic Books, Graphic Novels, Novels, Games, related merchandise and
other pop culture items; and


 


WHEREAS,
Seller desires to appoint Buyer as Seller’s distributor of the Products on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement;
and


 


WHEREAS,
Buyer desires to accept the appointments as distributor of the Products for Seller on the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement.


 


NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and undertakings herein contained, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged,
the parties agree as follows:


 


1. Appointment:

hereby appoints Buyer as its sole and exclusive distributor worldwide for the sale and distribution of Book Products in the Book
Market, and as a non-exclusive distributor of Ancillary Products in the Book Market. “Book Market” shall mean chain
book store retailers and their internet affiliates; independent book stores (i.e., stores whose revenues are derived primarily
from the sale of books, as opposed to magazines, comic books, or other items); and, for purposes of this Agreement, Amazon.com.


 






     


     


    

 


(b) Seller
hereby appoints Buyer as its sole and exclusive distributor worldwide for the sale and distribution of Book Products in the Mass
Market. Buyer is not appointed as distributor for Ancillary Products in the Mass Market. “Mass Market” shall mean mass-market
merchandisers and their internet affiliates; libraries; and the wholesalers who service those accounts; warehouse clubs and
specialty mass merchandisers/retailers, buying under Buyer’s returnable trade terms.


 


(c) Seller
hereby appoints Buyer as its sole and exclusive distributor worldwide for the sale and distribution of Products in the Direct Market.
“Direct Market” shall mean hobby and specialty game and comic retailers and wholesalers, and those stores (other than
stores that fall within the definition of “Mass Market” or “Book Market” above) that are presently being
served, or of the type being served, through the direct sales channel of distribution (as the term “direct sales” is
commonly understood in the comic book industry), buying under Buyers non-returnable trade terms.


 


(d) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth herein, the appointment of Buyer to serve as Seller’s exclusive distributor for Book Products
as set forth above (i) shall apply to all Seller’s Book Product titles published under the Seller’s trademarks during
the Term (as hereinafter defined) of this Agreement and (ii) shall not apply to “cross-over” books (unless Seller is
the designated publisher of such “cross-over” book), “tour” books and “incentive” or “coupon”
books (as such terms are commonly understood in the comic book industry).


 


(e) Seller
shall retain the exclusive right to sell any service or product directly into book clubs, fan clubs, book fairs, Scholastic Books
(collectively, the “Specialty Market”), and, subject to the terms set forth in the next sentence, any Direct Market,
Book Market or Mass Market account to which Buyer chooses not to sell (an “External Account”). Seller shall notify Buyer
of the identity of any External Account to which Seller desires the right to directly sell and, if Seller and Buyer do not within
ten (10) business days after the date of such notice agree on terms pursuant to which Buyer will sell to such account, then Seller
shall have the right to sell directly to such account. Buyer may notify Seller, from time to time, that it considers certain accounts
to be “credit risk” accounts (a “Credit Risk Notice”), in which case Seller agrees to notify Buyer within ten
(10) business days following its receipt of a Credit Risk Notice whether Seller agrees to assume the credit risk involved in continuing
to have Buyer sell to such account.


 


(f) Seller
shall retain the exclusive right to offer or sell to any third party at any time any service or product other than the Products
using any media now known or hereafter invented.


 


(g) Subject
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Buyer hereby accepts the appointments as Seller’s sole and exclusive distributor
for the sale and distribution of the Products as set forth in Paragraphs 1(a), 1(b), 1(c) and 1(d) hereof during the Term and pursuant
to the terms and conditions herein (collectively, the “Appointments”).

the Commencement Date (as defined herein) with respect to Products shipped on or after such Commencement Date. “Commencement

3.
 Supply.


 


(a) During
the Term, Seller hereby agrees to consign to Buyer, and Buyer hereby agrees to accept from Seller, such amounts of Products as

(b) Buyer
shall place consignment orders (referred to herein as “Shipping Requests”) with Seller for all Products to be shipped
to Buyer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement through delivery to Seller of a written or electronically transmitted document
in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Purchase Order Form”) with such changes as may be mutually agreed
upon by Buyer and Seller from time to time. Buyer shall deliver such Shipping Requests to Seller pursuant to Buyer’s Routing
Guide and to the address provided for notices to Seller in this Agreement, or to such other address as may be provided by Seller
to Buyer from time to time. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the Purchase Order Form, the terms
of this Agreement shall control.


 


(c) Buyer
will warehouse Products on consignment in a clean, dry, secure, and fire-protected facility.


 


(d) With
respect to Products shipped to Buyer’s UK distribution facility, which ultimately cannot be sold to customers serviced by

designated as Buyer’s Olive Branch, Mississippi facility) and associated freight costs will be deducted from the next Weekly
Payment Amount due from Buyer to Seller. Buyer will give Seller 10 days prior notification of the intent to return Products to
the United States, and Seller may elect to have Buyer either liquidate or destroy the Products, rather than return them, at Buyer’s
sole cost and expense.


 


(e) Buyer
will include all shipments of Products to its UK distribution facility in its regular sales reporting to Seller. Additionally,
Buyer will provide Seller with an additional monthly report containing all sales and returns activity of UK Book Market customers,
in order to calculate the appropriate additional UK Book Market fees outlined in Exhibit C of this Agreement. Such additional
UK Book Market fees will be deducted from the first Weekly Payment Amount payable following the month for which such fees are calculated.


 


4.
Distribution Services: Additional Services.


 


(a) Buyer
shall perform each of the distribution and marketing services specified on Exhibit A hereto (collectively, the “Distribution
Services”). Distribution Services shall be provided free of charge to Seller, except as otherwise specifically set forth on
Exhibit A and in Paragraph 6 hereof. If, during the Term, Buyer offers any new Distribution Services to any other “Premier”
publishers whose products are featured in its catalog, it will automatically be deemed to have offered those same Distribution
Services to Seller on competitive terms with those offered  to any such “Premier” publisher; provided that such
“Premier” publisher has overall market share (as determined by total sales dollars through Buyer) less than or equal
to 2 times the overall market share (as determined by total sales dollars through Buyer) of Seller.

Exhibit B


 


PURCHASE ORDER TERMS


Diamond Comic Distributors, Inc.’s (“DCD”) Purchase
Order Terms are to be maintained by Vendor in its permanent file and all orders placed by DCD with Vendor shall be accepted by
Vendor under the terms and conditions of this document. These Purchase Order Terms supersede all prior written or oral agreements.


 


DCD shall place all orders with Vendor by any number of means
including, but not limited to, mail, courier, facsimile transmission or other electronic means, and all such orders shall be construed
as being subject to this document.


 


Vendor shall be deemed to have accepted DCD’s Purchase Order
under the terms and conditions stated herein unless Vendor notifies the DCD Order Processing Department in writing within five
(5) days of its receipt of the Purchase Order. Upon notification DCD will either cancel the existing Purchase Order and decide
whether to place a new Purchase Order, or accept the product on a returnable basis subject to fees and conditions outlined below.


 


If the product and/or invoice is received with a different retail
price, terms, or other documentation than stated on the Purchase Order, DCD may accept the most favorable terms and/or pay the
lower of the two prices, and all products will be fully returnable.


 


In the event DCD accepts products on a returnable basis, DCD
reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to withhold payment for such products, for up to 120 days from receipt of goods, and
impose on Vendor a processing fee of $100.


 


Vendor shall include a packing list with each shipment to include
title, DCD item code, quantity shipped and DCD’s purchase order number.


 


A scannable bar code must be printed or stickered on all items
shipped. At DCD’s sole discretion, items received without a valid scannable bar code may be either returned to the vendor, or assessed
a $150.00 per sku/per shipment processing fee, as well as an additional $.20 per piece fee to cover expenses associated with creating,
printing and stickering each piece for distribution (both fees subject to future increases). Distribution of items which arrive
without valid bar codes (and are not returned to the vendor) may be delayed up to three weeks. Vendor shall extend full return
privileges to both DCD and Retailers on all items stickered by DCD. Both the processing charge and per piece fee are subject to
future increases.


 


Notwithstanding orders for Themed Products (as hereinafter defined),
any Purchase Order for a product which DCD is ordering for the first time (“Initial Order”) shall be valid for a period
of thirty (30) days after the Vendor solicited ship month, after which date the Purchase Order shall be void and of no further
force or effect.


 






    Page 15 of 18


     


    

 


If a Purchase Order is placed after the Initial Order for the
same product (“Reorder”) the Reorder must ship within fourteen (14) days of delivery of the Initial Order shipment, or
within fourteen (14) days of the order date printed on the Reorder, whichever is later. Any such reorders that do not ship within
the above described time frame will be cancelled, or if indicated by DCD in writing, accepted on a fully returnable basis.


 


DCD requires that any and all items that are related to holidays
or other media events (“Themed Products”) must ship at least twenty one (21) days prior to said holiday or event. Any
such Themed Products that do not ship within the above described time frame will be canceled, or if indicated by DCD in writing,
accepted on a fully returnable basis.


 


In the event Vendor ships product to DCD which has not been
ordered by DCD, Vendor assumes all risk for the product. DCD shall be under no obligation to receive, store, secure, inventory,
or return such unsolicited product to Vendor. DCD shall not be obligated to make any payment for such unsolicited product under
any circumstances.


 


By accepting DCD’s Purchase Order, Vendor hereby warrants to
DCD that (i) it owns all rights to market and sell the products to DCD as described in the Purchase Order; (ii) said products will
be of good and salable quality; and are free of all liens, claims and encumbrances; (iii) said products conform to affirmations
of fact made by Vendor in its solicitations, catalogs and product descriptions; and (iv) said products are adequately contained,
packaged and labeled in compliance with law and conform to the promises and affirmations of fact made on the container and label.
Vendor further agrees to indemnify and hold DCD, its agents, affiliates and subsidiaries (collectively “DCD”) harmless,
from and against any loss, damage or expense suffered by DCD, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, by reason of breach
by Vendor of the warranties contained herein or any act or omission of Vendor or allegation of trademark, copyright or patent infringements,
defects in material, workmanship or design, personal injury, property damage, unfair competition, obscenity, libel or other invaded
right, either alone or in combination, and any settlement, judgment or payment with respect to any claim, lawsuit or cause of action
against DCD as a result thereof. In addition to and not in limitation of any rights DCD may have under this paragraph, by law or
statute, in the event a claim or allegation is made against DCD regarding any of the above or if Vendor breaches the warranties
contained herein, DCD shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to either receive quantities DCD ordered, cancel the Purchase
Order without further obligation on its part, or return the products to the Vendor for a full refund. Vendor shall reimburse DCD
for all costs incurred due to the above.


 


Shipments of product shall be delivered F.O.B. to the location(s)
designated on the Purchase Order, unless other arrangements have been agreed to by DCD, in writing.


 


Shipments from International Vendors must be shipped “deliver
duty paid (DDP)”.


 


Should failure of Vendor to follow DCD’s shipping instructions
result in freight cost in excess of what would have been incurred using the given instructions, Vendor shall reimburse DCD for
the difference in cost.


 


The Purchase Order shall be governed by the laws of the State
of Maryland, excepting the conflict of law rules of the State. In the event of any litigation arising out of the Purchase Order,
Vendor hereby agrees that jurisdiction and venue shall rest exclusively within the courts of the State of Maryland, including the
United States District Court for the District of Maryland.

If any term or provisions of these Purchase Order Terms are
held by a court to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms and provisions of these Purchase Order Terms
shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated.


 


Vendor shall not assign or transfer the Purchase Order or any
part thereof or any right here/thereunder without DCD’s prior written consent.


 


These Purchase Order Terms are intended by the parties to be
a final, exclusive and complete statement of the terms of their agreement, and acceptance is expressly limited to the terms stated
herein. Neither trade usage nor any terms and conditions that may be contained in any acknowledgment, invoice or other documentation
of Vendor, nor course of prior dealing between the parties shall be relevant to supplement or explain any terms used in the Purchase
Order.


 


Should Vendor have any questions as to the meaning of any terminology
or phrasing used in these Purchase Order Terms, Vendor shall get clarification from DCD. DCD’s Purchase Order Terms shall constitute
the entire agreement between the parties and may not be modified or rescinded except by a writing signed by both parties.
