shall purchase the styles of products set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto (the "Products")
exclusively from LEM and (ii) LEM shall manufacture and supply the Products to SPY; provided,  however, that SPY shall have the right, in its sole
discretion, to add, delete or change products on the list of the Products at any time upon ninety

        3.    Supply of Products. 


                a.    Purchase Orders.    SPY shall order the Products by issuing a purchase order in substantially the

reasonable discretion) by delivering written notice to SPY expressly rejecting such Purchase Order within fifteen (15) days of the delivery of such Purchase Order by SPY to LEM. Each Purchase
Order must be placed in accordance with the lead time restrictions set forth in Section 3(c) below.

sets forth estimated purchase requirements which are different (i.e., lesser or greater in amount) by more than 20% from SPY's actual purchase
requirements as set forth in Purchase Orders for such respective periods with respect to any Products, SPY acknowledges and agrees that LEM may not be able to deliver such Products by the Shipment
Date(s) requested by SPY in such Purchase Orders.

                        i.    return
the Products to LEM at LEM's sole expense; 


                        ii.    return

                d.    Effect of Termination.    Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, the following
provisions shall apply:

Notice") issued by SPY to LEM, LEM shall manufacture and supply the Products which are the subject of such purchase orders in accordance with their terms, unless otherwise
mutually agreed to by the parties.

any other provision to the contrary, in no event shall any notice of termination delivered by LEM to SPY hereunder (or any resulting
termination of this Agreement) adversely affect SPY's right to exercise the Option, unless such termination is directly the result of SPY's failure to cure a default or breach relating to SPY's
payments obligations under this Agreement. 


        14.    Ownership of Intellectual Property. 



                a.    License Grant.    To the extent that the Products or know-how, processes or

Intellectual Property Rights of SPY
(including, without limitation, processes used in the manufacture of the Products).

                b.    Confidentiality Obligations.    Each party agrees to take all measures reasonably required in
order to maintain the confidentiality of all Confidential Information in its possession or control, which will in no event be less than the measures used to maintain the confidentiality of its own
information of equal importance. It is understood and agreed that a Recipient may use and disclose Confidential Information received from a Disclosing Party solely for the purposes of exercising the
Recipient's rights and performing its obligations under this Agreement. It is further understood and agreed that the parties may disclose the terms and conditions of this Agreement to their respective
actual and potential investors, attorneys, financial advisors, accountants, collaborators, business partners, employees and contractors who are bound by written agreements with the Recipient to
maintain the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party in confidence or who are otherwise under obligations of confidentiality to the Recipient (collectively, the
"Representatives"); provided, however, that the
Recipient shall be liable for any unauthorized disclosure by such Representatives. The parties also may disclose Confidential Information of the other party in the course of prosecuting or defending
litigation, complying with applicable governmental regulations or submitting information to tax or other governmental authorities, provided that if a
party is required to make any such disclosure of another party's Confidential Information, to the extent it may legally do so, it will give reasonable advance
notice to the latter party of such disclosure and will use diligent efforts to secure confidential treatment of such Confidential Information prior to its disclosure (whether through protective orders
or otherwise). Without limiting the foregoing sentence, the parties agree that either party may file this Agreement as an exhibit to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, or
a periodic report filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, so long as the party so filing this Agreement exercises its reasonable efforts to seek confidential treatment regarding the financial
terms of this Agreement. 


                c.    Injunctive Relief.    The Recipient of Confidential Information acknowledges that Confidential
Information includes trade secrets or confidential or proprietary information, the disclosure of which could cause substantial harm to the Disclosing Party that could not be remedied by the payment of
damages alone. Accordingly, the parties agree that a Disclosing Party shall be entitled to seek preliminary and permanent injunctive relief and other equitable relief for any breach of this  Section 15. 


                d.    Return of Confidential Information.    Upon the written request of the Disclosing Party, the
Receiving Party shall promptly return all tangible items relating to Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, including all written material, photographs, models, components and the like made

        16.    GENERAL PROVISIONS. 


                a.    Relationship of the Parties.    The parties are independent contracting parties, and neither party
shall be deemed to be the servant, employee or agent of the other party. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to create the relationship of partners, principal, agent or joint ventures between
the parties. Each party agrees that it has no right or authority to incur obligations of any kind in the name of or for the account of the other party nor to commit or bind the other party to any
contract or other obligation, except as set out above. This Agreement is not for the benefit of any third party. 


                b.    Severability.    If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any such provision to
any party or circumstances shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid and unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement or the application of such
provision to such person or circumstances other than those to which it is so determined to be invalid and unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each provision hereof shall be validated and
shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. 


                c.    No Waiver.    No express or implied waiver by any party of any provision of this Agreement or of
any
breach or default of the other party shall constitute a continuing waiver, and no waiver by any party shall prevent such party from enforcing any and all other provisions of this Agreement or from
acting upon such other provisions or upon any other or subsequent breach or default by the other party. 


                d.    Notices.    All notices, demands, requests, consents, statements, satisfactions, waivers,
