Stock, and Common Stock and (y) the Company, the Sponsors, Weil, and Milbank in an unredacted form (to be held by Weil and Milbank on a professionals’ eyes only basis). 

  
 25 

 The Parties acknowledge and agree that if a signature page to this Agreement (or in any form of Joinder
Agreement as the case may be) expressly limits this Agreement to a division, department or business unit of a Subsequent Consenting Support Party, then this Agreement and any Definitive Document shall only bind that specified division, department or
business unit of the Subsequent Consenting Support Party and shall not bind any Affiliate, Subsidiary, controlling Person or Representative (as defined in each relevant Definitive Document) of the Subsequent Consenting Support Party, and further
agree that any such excluded Affiliate, Subsidiary, controlling Person, or Representative (as defined in each relevant Definitive Document) of the Subsequent Consenting Support Party shall not be entitled to any benefits or have any rights under
this Agreement or any Definitive Document. 
 Upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, the Original RSA shall be deemed amended, restated, superseded, and
replaced in its entirety with respect to the Parties and shall be of no further effect. 
  

	13.	 GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. 

THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY CONFLICTS OF LAW
PROVISIONS WHICH WOULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAW OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. BY ITS EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ANY LEGAL ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING AGAINST
IT WITH RESPECT TO ANY MATTER UNDER OR ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT RENDERED IN ANY SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING, MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY FEDERAL OR STATE COURT IN THE
BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, THE CITY OF NEW YORK, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY ACCEPTS AND SUBMITS ITSELF TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF EACH SUCH COURT, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, WITH
RESPECT TO ANY SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. 

 

	14.	 Specific Performance/Remedies. 

It is understood and agreed by the Parties that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by any Party and each non-breaching Party will be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief (including attorneys fees and costs) as a remedy of any such breach, without the necessity of proving the
inadequacy of money damages as a remedy. 
  

	15.	 Survival. 

Notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7 hereof, Sections 7.06, 10, and
13–23, 25, and 26 will survive such termination and will continue in full force and effect for the benefit of the Parties in accordance with the terms hereof; provided, however, that any liability of a Party
for failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement will survive such termination. 

  
 26 

	16.	 Headings. 

The headings of the sections, paragraphs and subsections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and will not affect the interpretation hereof or,
for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Agreement. 
  

	17.	 Successors and Assigns; Severability; Several Obligations. 

This Agreement is intended to bind and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. If any provision of this
Agreement, or the application of any such provision to any person or circumstance, will be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, such invalidity or unenforceability will attach only to such provision or part thereof and the remaining
part of such provision hereof and this Agreement will continue in full force and effect 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 any such
determination of invalidity, the Parties will negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are
consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible. The agreements, representations and obligations of the Parties are, in all respects, ratable and several and neither joint nor joint and several. 

 

	18.	 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. 

Unless expressly stated herein, this Agreement will be solely for the benefit of the Parties and no other person or entity will be a third-party beneficiary
hereof. 
  

	19.	 Prior Negotiations; Entire Agreement. 

This Agreement, including the exhibits and schedules hereto, constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties, and supersedes all other prior negotiations, with
respect to the subject matter hereof, except that the Parties acknowledge that any confidentiality agreements heretofore executed between the Company and each Initial Consenting Support Party (or any advisor thereto) will continue in full force and
effect in accordance with the terms thereof. 
  

	20.	 Counterparts. 

This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original, and all of which together will be deemed to be one and

	22.	 Reservation of Rights; No Admission. 

Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, nothing herein is intended to, or does, in any manner waive, limit, impair, or restrict the ability of each of
the Parties (i) to protect and preserve its rights, remedies and interests, including its claims against any of the other Parties (or their respective affiliates or subsidiaries), (ii) purchase, sell, or enter into any transactions in
connection with the Madewell IPO or the Term Loans, IPCo Notes, Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, or Common Stock, (iii) enforce any right under the Term Loan Agreement or Term Loan Exchange Agreement, subject to the terms
hereof, (iv) consult with other Consenting Support Parties, other holders of Term Loans, IPCo Notes, Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, or Common Stock, or any other Party regarding the Transaction (and not any other
Alternative Transaction), or (v) enforce any right, remedy, condition, consent or approval requirement under this Agreement or in any of the Definitive Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, if this Agreement is terminated in accordance
with its terms for any reason (other than consummation of the Transaction), the Parties each fully and expressly reserve any and all of their respective rights, remedies, claims, defenses and interests, subject to Sections 7 and 14 in
the case of any claim for breach of this Agreement arising before termination. Each of the Parties denies any and all wrongdoing or liability of any kind and does not concede any infirmity in the claims or defenses which it has asserted or could
assert. 
  

	23.	 Relationship among Parties. 

It is understood and agreed that no Consenting Support Party has any duty of trust or confidence in any kind or form with any other Consenting Support Party,
and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, there are no commitments between them. In this regard, it is understood and agreed that any Consenting Support Party may acquire Term Loans, IPCo Notes, Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Common Stock, or other debt or equity securities of the Company without the consent of the Company or any other Consenting Support Party, subject to applicable securities laws and the terms of this Agreement; provided,
that, no Consenting Support Party will have any responsibility for any such acquisition to any other entity by virtue of this Agreement. 

  
 29 

	24.	 No Solicitation; Representation by Counsel; Adequate Information. 

Section 24.01 This Agreement is not and will not be deemed to be a solicitation to tender or exchange any of the Term Loans, IPCo Notes,
Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, or Common Stock. Each Party acknowledges that it has had an opportunity to receive information from the Company and that it has been represented by counsel in connection with this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby. Accordingly, any rule of law or any legal decision that would provide any Party with a defense to the enforcement of the terms of this Agreement against such Party based upon lack of legal counsel will have no
application and is expressly waived. 
 Section 24.02 Although none of the Parties intends that this Agreement should constitute, and
they each believe it does not constitute, an offering of securities, each Consenting Support Party acknowledges, agrees, and represents to the other Parties that it (a) is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule
501(a) of the Securities Act, (b) is a “qualified institutional buyer” as such term is defined in Rule 144A of the Securities Act, (c) understands that the securities to be acquired by it pursuant to the Transaction have not been
registered under the Securities Act and that such securities are being offered and sold pursuant to an exemption from registration contained in the Securities Act, based in part upon such Consenting Support Party’s representations contained in
this Agreement and cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration is available, and (d) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that such Consenting Support
Party is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the securities to be acquired by it pursuant to the Transaction and understands and is able to bear any economic risks with such investment. 

Section 24.03 Each Consenting Support Party acknowledges that it is acquiring any SPV Securities for investment purposes and solely for
its own account, or for the accounts of the beneficial owners for whom it acts as investment advisor or manager, and not with a view to, or for resale of such securities in violation of the Securities Act. Such Consenting Support Party will not
resell, transfer, assign or distribute the SPV Securities acquired by it pursuant hereto except in compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act or pursuant to an available exemption therefrom. The financial situation of
such Consenting Support Party (and each beneficial owner for whom it acts as investment advisor or manager) is such that it can afford to bear the economic risk of holding any SPV Securities. Such Consenting Support Party (and each beneficial
owner for whom it acts as investment advisor or manager) can afford to suffer the complete loss of its investment in any SPV Securities. The knowledge and experience of such Consenting Support Party in financial and business matters is such
that it, together with the assistance of its advisors, is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in any SPV Securities. Such Consenting Support Party acknowledges that (a) the offer of the SPV Securities have not been
registered under the Securities Act; (b) the offer of the SPV Securities is intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act; and (c) there is no established market for
the SPV Securities and there may not be any public market for such securities in the future. 
  

	25.	 Indemnification and Contribution 

Section 25.01 Indemnification Obligations. The Company (the “Indemnifying Party”) shall indemnify and hold
harmless each other Party and its affiliates, equity holders, members, partners, general partners, managers and its and their respective representatives and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any
and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and costs and expenses arising out of or in any way related to a claim, suit or other 

  
 30 

 
litigation asserted by a third-party, whether currently outstanding or arising after the date hereof (collectively, “Losses”), that any such Indemnified Person may incur or to
which any such Indemnified Person may become subject, arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, the Transaction and the transactions described in the
preamble to this Agreement, or any claim, challenge, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, regardless of whether any Indemnified Person is a party thereto, whether or not such proceedings are brought by the
Company, the Sponsors, their respective equity holders, affiliates, creditors or any other Person, and reimburse each Indemnified Person upon demand for reasonable documented (with such documentation subject to redaction to preserve attorney client
and work product privileges) legal or other third-party expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending, or providing evidence in or preparing to serve or serving as a witness with respect to, any lawsuit,
investigation, claim or other proceeding relating to any of the foregoing (including in connection with the enforcement of the indemnification obligations set forth herein), irrespective of whether or not the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, or the Transaction are consummated or whether or not this Agreement is terminated; provided, that the foregoing indemnity will not, as to any Indemnified Person, apply to Losses to the extent they are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise from the bad faith, willful misconduct, or gross negligence of such Indemnified Person. 

Section 25.02 Indemnification Procedure. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person of notice of the commencement of any
claim, challenge, litigation, investigation or proceeding (an “Indemnified Claim”), such Indemnified Person will, if a claim is to be made hereunder against the Indemnifying Party in respect thereof, notify the Indemnifying Party in
writing of the commencement thereof; provided, that (a) the omission to so notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have hereunder except to the extent it has been
materially prejudiced by such failure and (b) the omission to so notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have to such Indemnified Person otherwise than on account of this
Section 25. In case any such Indemnified Claims are brought against any Indemnified Person and it notifies the Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate therein,
and, at its election by providing written notice to such Indemnified Person, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably acceptable to such Indemnified Person; provided, that if the parties
(including any impleaded parties) to any such Indemnified Claims include both such Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Party and based on advice of such Indemnified Person’s counsel there are legal defenses available to such Indemnified
Person that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party, such Indemnified Person shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such
Indemnified Claims. Upon receipt of notice from the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Person of its election to so assume the defense of such Indemnified Claims with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Person, the Indemnifying
Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Person for expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with the defense thereof or participation therein (other than reasonable costs of investigation) unless (i) such Indemnified
Person shall have employed separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel) in connection with the assertion of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the
Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel 

  
 31 

 
representing the Indemnified Persons who are parties to such Indemnified Claims (in addition to one local counsel in each jurisdiction in which local counsel is required)), (ii) the Indemnifying
Party shall not have employed counsel reasonably acceptable to such Indemnified Person to represent such Indemnified Person within a reasonable time after the Indemnifying Party has received notice of commencement of the Indemnified Claims from, or
delivered on behalf of, the Indemnified Person, (iii) after the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of the Indemnified Claims, the Indemnified Person determines in good faith that the Indemnifying Party has failed or is failing to defend
such claim and provides written notice of such determination and the basis for such determination, and such failure is not reasonably cured within ten (10) business days of receipt of such notice, or (iv) the Indemnifying Party shall have
authorized in writing the employment of counsel for such Indemnified Person. 
 Section 25.03 Settlement of Indemnified Claims.
In connection with any Indemnified Claim for which an Indemnified Person is assuming the defense in accordance with this Section 25, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any Indemnified Claims
effected by such Indemnified Person without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If any settlement of any Indemnified Claims is consummated with the written consent
of the Indemnifying Party or if there is a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such Indemnified Claims, the Indemnifying Party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and all Losses by reason of such
settlement or judgment to the extent such Losses are otherwise subject to indemnification by the Indemnifying Party hereunder in accordance with, and subject to the limitations of, this Section 25. The Indemnifying Party
shall not, without the prior written consent of an Indemnified Person (which consent shall be granted or withheld, conditioned or delayed in the Indemnified Person’s sole discretion), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened
Indemnified Claims in respect of which indemnity or contribution has been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person unless (i) such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person in form and substance satisfactory to
such Indemnified Person from all liability on the claims that are the subject matter of such Indemnified Claims and (ii) such settlement does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on
behalf of any Indemnified Person. 
 Section 25.04 Contribution. If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable
to any Indemnified Person or insufficient to hold it harmless from Losses that are subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 25.01, then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
Indemnified Person as a result of such Loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Person, on the other hand, but also the relative
fault of the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Person, on the other hand, as well as any relevant equitable considerations. The Indemnifying Party also agrees that no Indemnified Person shall have any liability based on its
comparative or contributory negligence or otherwise to the Indemnifying Party, any Person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of any of the Indemnifying Party, or any other Person in connection with an Indemnified Claim. 

  
 32 

	26.	 Fees and Expenses. 

Except as set forth in the proviso to this sentence, each Party is responsible for its own fees and expenses (including the fees and expenses of counsel,
financial consultants, investment bankers and accountants) in connection with the entry into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that the Company shall pay or cause to be paid the reasonable and documented
fees and expenses of (a) the counsel to the Initial Consenting Support Parties in accordance with that letter agreement, dated July 10, 2019, between Chinos A and Milbank, (b) financial advisors to the Initial Consenting Support
Parties in accordance with that letter agreement dated June 17, 2019 between Chinos A, PJT Partners LP, and Milbank, and (c) the counsel to the Sponsors to the extent required under any management services or similar agreements, including
the Amended and Restated Management Services Agreement dated July 13, 2017 between Holdings, Group, Chinos Intermediate, Inc., and Chinos B and the Management Services Agreement dated July 13, 2017 between Group, Chinos
Intermediate, Inc., Chinos B, TPG, and LGP (provided that nothing in this Section 26 shall be deemed a waiver of the Sponsors’ right to payment of any other amounts under any management services or similar agreement).

  
 33 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed and
delivered by their respective duly authorized officers, solely in their respective capacity as officers of the undersigned and not in any other capacity, as of the date first set forth above.

 Exhibit A 

Transaction Term Sheet 

  

  Term Sheet Cash repayment of term
loan, up to 100% of claim, equal to (a) the sum of (i) Madewell IPO and debt financing proceeds, (ii) $50mm of borrowings under the new J. Crew ABL, and (iii) $150mm sponsor new money investment less (b) the sum of (i) repayment of existing ABL,
(ii) funding of the Restricted Cash Amount, and (iii) payment of transaction costs, including fees and cash taxes. Cash received pro rata calculated based on all term loan claims, regardless of consent, with the exception of the impact of

Party the precise manner in which it intends to issue such Additional A-2 Equity and accomplish the result specified in clause (i) so that each Consenting Support Party can determine whether it will be adversely impacted (such notice, an
“Additional A-2 Equity Notice” and the 14 business day period following delivery of such notice, an “Additional A-2 Equity Notice Period”).  No Additional A-2 Equity shall be issued unless each Initial Consenting Support

upon any creditor of the Company (and no such creditor of the Company shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement) and the Members shall not have any duty or obligation to any creditor of the Company to make any contribution to the Company
or to issue any call for capital pursuant to this Agreement. 
 Section 3.3. Capital Accounts. With respect to each Member, a
capital account shall be maintained on the books of the Company in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) (a “Capital Account”). Each Capital Account shall be
adjusted to reflect such Member’s share of allocations and distributions as provided in Articles VII, VIII, and X of this Agreement, and any additional Capital Contributions to the Company or withdrawals of capital from the
Company, including, in such adjustments, the consequences of liabilities assumed, or which are secured by property contributed or distributed, and taking into account Code Section 752(c) and any other applicable provision of the Code and
related Regulations. Such Capital Account maintenance provisions, together with the other provisions of this Agreement are 

  
 17 

 
intended to and shall further be interpreted and adjusted to comply with the Regulations under Code Section 704(b), and in particular with Regulations
Section 1.704-1(b), as determined in good faith by the Board of Managers. Members will have no obligation to restore any negative balance in their respective Capital Account at any time during the term of
the Company or upon dissolution and liquidation. Except as otherwise provided in the Regulations, a transferee of all or a portion of a Member’s Units shall succeed to the Capital Account of the transferor to the extent allocable to the
transferred Units. 
 Section 3.4. Units. 

(a) Units Generally. Each Member’s limited liability company interests in the Company shall be represented by Units. The total
number of Units that the Company shall have authority to issue is [•] Units, classified as: 
 (i) [●] Series B Units (the
“Series B Units”); 
 (ii) [●] Series C Units (the “Series C Units”); 

(iii) [●] Series D Units (the “Series D Units”); and 

(iv) [●] Common Units (“Common Units”). 

The number of Units issued to each Member in respect of such Member’s Capital Account on the date hereof (after giving effect to the transactions
contemplated by the Subscription Agreements, the Contribution Agreement and the Exchange Agreement) is set forth opposite their respective names on Exhibit A attached hereto. The Units do not need to be certificated. 

(b) Additional Units. Subject to Section 4.9(b)(i), the Board of Managers may (i) increase the total
number of Units that the Company shall have authority to issue, (ii) authorize, create and issue Units of different classes (which may be existing classes or new classes), (iii) admit Persons as Members in exchange for such contributions to
capital or such other consideration (including past or future services), and (iv) amend this Agreement to create new classes of Units or reflect any rights of such additional Members, in each case, on such terms and conditions as the Board of
Managers deems appropriate. Promptly following the issuance of Units the Board of Managers shall cause the books and records of the Company and Exhibit A attached hereto to be amended, which shall not constitute an amendment of this
Agreement, to reflect the number and classes of Units issued and, in the case of Units issued other than in connection with the performance of services for the Company, the capital contribution per Unit. Upon issuance of the Units as provided in
this Agreement, the Units shall be deemed to be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. 
 Section 3.5.
Certain Payments. Under the Act, a member of a limited liability company may, under certain circumstances, be required to return amounts previously distributed to such member. It is the intent of the Members that no distribution to any Member
pursuant to Article VIII or Article X shall be deemed to constitute money or other property paid or distributed in violation of the Act, and the Members agree that each such distribution shall constitute a compromise of the Members
within the meaning of Section 18-502(b) of the Act, and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Member receiving such distribution shall not be 

  
 18 

 
required to return to any Person any such money or property, except as otherwise expressly set forth herein. If, however, any court of competent jurisdiction holds that, notwithstanding the
provisions of this Agreement, any Member is obligated to make any such payment, such obligation shall be the obligation of such Member and not of the other Members, and, when funded, shall constitute a Capital Contribution to the Company by such
Member. 
 ARTICLE IV

additional or substitute member shall be admitted to the Company as a Member upon his, her or its execution of a counterpart signature page to this Agreement. If a Member Transfers all of his, her or its limited liability company interest in the

its successor, administrator or other legal representative for the purpose of settling its estate or administering its property, and the Company shall continue as a limited liability company. The successor or estate of any bankrupt Member described
in the preceding sentence shall be liable for all the obligations of such Member. 
 Section 4.9. Member Approval Rights.

any of their respective Affiliates) without the prior written consent of the Holders of the majority in interest of the outstanding (i) Series C Units, excluding all Series C Units held by a Sponsor Member or any of its respective Affiliates,
and (ii) Common Units, excluding all Common Units held by a Sponsor Member or any of its respective Affiliates, each voting as a separate class, except for any transaction entered into in connection with the exercise of rights under this

the contrary, the Company shall not (i) take (or permit to be taken), nor shall it permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (as defined in the Series A-1 Credit Agreement) to take (or permit to be taken)
any action that would be prohibited by Article [●] of the Series A-1 Credit Agreement as in effect as of the Effective Date, or (ii) effect any amendment, waiver, consent, modification or
supplement with respect to such Article [●] of the Series A-1 Credit Agreement as in effect as of the Effective Date, in each case, without the prior written consent of a majority in interest, as of

Majority”); provided, that, for purposes of this Section 4.9(c), and for so long as any of the Series C Preferences with respect to any of the Series C Units are greater than zero, such
prohibitions shall remain in effect without regard to whether or not any obligations under the Series A-1 Credit Agreement remain unpaid or unsatisfied and whether or not the Series A-1 Credit Agreement is amended, modified or terminated subsequent to the Effective Date, other than any amendment, waiver, consent, modification or supplement effected in compliance with this this

Section 4.10. Member Withdrawals. 

(a) Required Withdrawal. If, at any time that the Company is, in the reasonable judgment of the Board of Managers based on the advice of
counsel, an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act, a Member may be required to withdraw from the Company at the direction of the Board of Managers, in whole or in part, based upon advice of duly qualified counsel reasonably
selected by the Board of Managers, if in the reasonable judgment of the Board of Managers based on the advice of such counsel: 
 (i) such
Member is determined at any time not to be a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined under Rule 144A under the Securities Act) that is not a broker-dealer which owns and invests on a discretionary basis less than U.S.$25,000,000 in
securities of issuers that are not affiliated persons of the dealer and is not a plan referred to in paragraph (a)(1)(i)(D) or (a)(1)(i)(E) of Rule 144A under the Securities Act or a trust fund referred to in paragraph (a)(1)(i)(F) of Rule 144A
under the Securities Act that holds the assets of such a plan, if investment decisions with respect to the plan are made by beneficiaries of the plan; or 

(ii) such Member is determined at any time not to be a “qualified purchaser” for purposes of Section 3(c)(7) of the U.S.
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), or an entity owned exclusively by “qualified purchasers. 

(b) Entitlement. Upon effectiveness of such withdrawal, the withdrawing Member shall cease to be a Member to the extent of such
withdrawal. Unless such withdrawing Member becomes a Member in violation of Section 5.1(a) or has violated any representations made by such withdrawing Member to the Company, the withdrawing Member shall be entitled to
receive within 90 days after the date of such withdrawal an amount equal to the amount such Member would be entitled to receive under Section 10.2 if the Company had been liquated for cash on such date (with the
Company’s assets being deemed to be sold at their fair market values, as determined in good faith by the Board of Managers as of such date). 

(c) Consideration. Any distribution or payment to a withdrawing Member pursuant to Section 4.10(b) may, in the
sole discretion of the Board of Managers, be made in cash, or in the form of a Distribution-in-Kind of Madewell Shares or J.Crew Shares, or any combination thereof.

 ARTICLE V 

TRANSFER OF COMPANY INTERESTS 

Section 5.1. Prohibited and Permitted Transfers. 

(a) Prohibited Transfers. No Member shall Transfer all or any Units (or any beneficial interests therein) if such Transfer would: 

(i) result in a Transfer to any Person (1) who is not a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined under Rule 144A under the
Securities Act) that is not a broker-dealer which owns and invests on a discretionary basis less than U.S.$25,000,000 in securities of issuers that are not affiliated persons of the dealer and is not a plan referred to in paragraph (a)(1)(i)(D) or
(a)(1)(i)(E) of Rule 144A under the Securities Act or a trust fund referred to in paragraph (a)(1)(i)(F) of Rule 144A under the Securities Act that holds the assets of such a plan, if investment decisions with respect to the plan are made by
beneficiaries of the plan, (2) who is not a “qualified purchaser” for purposes of Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act, an entity owned exclusively by “qualified purchasers”, or (3) whose ownership of
Units could result in the Company being an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act; 
 (ii) result in a Transfer to
any Person who lacks the requisite legal power or capacity to own such interest; or 
 (iii) result in a Transfer to an Adverse Person; 

(iv) subject the Company to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or is prohibited by the Securities
Act or any comparable provision under state or provincial law; 
 (v) cause the Company to lose its status as a partnership for federal
income tax purposes or cause the Company to be classified as a “publicly traded partnership” within the meaning of Code Section 7704 and the Regulations promulgated thereunder; 

(vi) cause the Managers (or other persons responsible for the investment and operating of the Company’s assets) to become a fiduciary
with respect to any existing or contemplated Member, pursuant to ERISA or the applicable provisions of any similar law;

violation of any then applicable federal or state securities laws or rules and regulations, any state securities commission or any other governmental authority with jurisdiction over such Transfer; or 

(viii) result in the termination of the existence or qualification of the Company under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation. 

(b) Permitted Transfers. Subject to Section 5.1(a) and Section 5.1(e), any Member
may Transfer all or any of his, her or its Units to any other Person (each a “Permitted Transfer”) and such transferee shall receive and hold such Units subject to the provisions of this Agreement in the same manner as the
transferor: provided, that, 
 (i) any Transfer of Units shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be null and void
unless the transferee executes and delivers to the Company (A) the representations and warranties approved and required by the Board of Managers in connection with such Transfer, and (B) such other documents or instruments as the Board
determines are necessary or appropriate to effect such Person’s admission as a Member; 

  
 23 

 (ii) no such Transfer shall be effective until the Holders of beneficial interests of such
transferee shall have delivered to the Company a written acknowledgement and agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company that they will not Transfer any such beneficial interests or permit such transferee to issue any such
beneficial interests except to the extent such Transfer or issuance (treating such issuance as a Transfer by such Holders) would be permitted under Section 5.1(a) if the beneficial interests were Units; and 

(iii) if requested by the Board of Managers, the transferring Member shall pay the Company’s reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred
in connection with such Transfer, including the fees and expenses of counsel. 
 (c) Transfers in Violation of Agreement. Any Transfer
or attempted Transfer in violation of Section 5.1(a) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be null and void and of no force and effect whatsoever, and the Company shall not record such purported Transfer on its
books or treat any purported transferee as the owner of any Units subject to such purported Transfer. 
 (d) Registration and Transfer of
Units. By acceptance of the Transfer of any Units in compliance with Section 5.1(b), each transferee of a Unit (including any nominee holder or an agent or representative acquiring such Unit for the account of another
Person):

 (e)
Additional Restrictions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) subject to Section 5.2, no Sponsor Member or Affiliate thereof may Transfer Common Units (other than to another Affiliate
of such Sponsor Member) if such Transfer would result in the Sponsor Members ceasing to own, in the aggregate, directly or indirectly, beneficially and of record, at least a majority of the aggregate Common Units, and (ii) the Series B Member
and the Series D Member may not Transfer any Series B Units or Series D Units, respectively, to any other Person, other than any Transfer or other exercise of remedies in respect of the Series B Units or Series D Units by the IPCo Noteholders or the

 24 

 Section 5.2. Tag-Along Rights. 

(a) Tag Sale. 
 (i) If, at
any time, a Sponsor Member or its Affiliate, directly or indirectly proposes to Transfer (a “Transferring Member”), to any Person or Persons (other than an Affiliate or Affiliates of such Transferring Member), any of the
Common Units held by such Transferring Member, then, subject to the other provisions of this Section 5.2, each other Member holding Common Units shall be entitled to Transfer a percentage of the Common Units held by such
Member equal to the percentage of Common Units owned by the Transferring Member that the Transferring Member is so Transferring in such Tag Sale; provided, however, that, each other Member holding Common Units may
elect to Transfer in any such Tag Sale, a lesser number of Units than such other Member holding Common Units is entitled to Transfer pursuant to this Section 5.2. 

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Tag Sale (and after giving effect to Section 5.2(a)(i)), if
the number of Common Units required to be Transferred pursuant to this Section 5.2 exceeds the number of Common Units that the Tag-Along Transferee is willing to purchase pursuant to
such Tag Sale, then the number of Units each Tagging Member is permitted to Transfer pursuant to this Section 5.2 shall be reduced pro rata until the aggregate number of Common Units required to be sold does not exceed the
number of Common Units such Tag-Along Transferee is willing to purchase pursuant to such Tag Sale. Subject to this Section 5.2, with respect to any Tag Sale, each Tagging Member shall
Transfer such Common Units on the same terms and conditions applicable to, and, taking into account any adjustment required as a result of distributions made pursuant to Section 8.3, for the same type of consideration
payable to, the Transferring Member. 
 (b) Terms of Sale. In connection with any Tag Sale, each Tagging Member shall execute such
documents, and make such representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities, as are executed and made by the Transferring Member with respect to the Company and shall take all necessary or desirable actions in connection with the consummation of
such Tag Sale as reasonably requested by the Transferring Member. Any indemnification or other obligations assumed in connection with any Tag Sale shall be several and not joint and shall be allocated among the Transferring Member and Tagging
Members in the same proportion as the aggregate consideration payable in such Tag Sale is allocated pursuant to Section 5.2(a), other than with respect to representations made individually by the Transferring Member and
each Tagging Member (including representations as to title or authority or representations qualified by the individual knowledge of the party making such representation), for which such Member shall be solely liable. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
no Member will be required to (i) indemnify the buyer or any other Person in connection with any Transfer of such Member’s Common Units under this Section 5.2 for an amount in excess of the proceeds such Member
receives in such Transfer for its Common Units, or (ii) enter into any non-competition, non-interference and/or
non-solicitation agreements or any other restrictive covenants in connection with such Tag Sale. 

  
 25 

 (c) Rejection of Tagged Units. Notwithstanding anything contained in this
Section 5.2 to the contrary, if the Tag-Along Transferee is unwilling to purchase any of the Common Units that a Tagging Member has elected to Transfer (in accordance with
Section 5.2(a) and Section 5.2(d)) in connection with a Tag Sale, the Transferring Member may not consummate such Tag Sale unless the Transferring Member purchases from such Tagging Member such
Tagging Member’s Common Units participating in such Tag Sale for consideration equal to the consideration such Tagging Member would have been entitled to pursuant to Section 5.2(a), either prior to or in connection
with the closing of such Tag Sale, in which case such Tagging Member must transfer such Common Units to the Transferring Member pursuant to purchase documentation with terms substantially similar to those such Tagging Member would have been subject
to if such Tagging Member had transferred such Tagging Member’s Common Units directly to the Tag-Along Transferee in connection with the Tag Sale. 

(d) Tag-Along Notice. In the event of any Tag Sale, the Transferring Member shall promptly give
to the Company written notice of such Tag Sale (the “Tag-Along Notice”), and the Company shall then promptly give to each of the other Members holding Common Units, as appropriate, the Tag-Along Notice, and from the date of such Member’s receipt of the Tag-Along Notice, each such Member shall have the right, exercisable by written notice (the
“Tag-Along Response Notice”) within ten Business Days following such Member’s receipt of the Tag-Along Notice, to notify the Transferring
Member of such Member’s waiver or election to participate in such Tag Sale and the maximum number of Common Units such Member is willing to transfer or sell in such Tag Sale, as appropriate. If, pursuant to the preceding sentence, a Member
holding Common Units elects to participate in a Tag Sale (each such electing Member, a “Tagging Member”), the Transferring Member shall include in the Tag Sale the appropriate number of Common Units held by such Tagging
Member in accordance with this Section 5.2. With respect to any Tag Sale, if the terms and conditions set forth in the Tag-Along Notice are thereafter amended in any material respect,
the Transferring Member shall give written notice (an “Amended Tag-Along Notice”) of the amended terms and conditions of such Tag Sale to each Tagging Member and in such event, each
Tagging Member shall have five Business Days following receipt of such notice to notify the Transferring Member of its election to (i) continue to participate in such Tag Sale upon the amended terms and conditions, or (ii) not participate
in such Tag Sale. If any applicable Member holding Common Units fails to elect to participate in any Tag Sale following receipt of a Tag-Along Notice or an Amended
Tag-Along Notice within the applicable time periods specified in this Section 5.2, such Member shall be deemed to have elected not to participate in, and shall have waived any right
to participate in, such Tag Sale. With respect to any Tag Sale, each Tag-Along Notice and Amended Tag-Along Notice shall set forth (w) the name and address of the Tag-Along Transferee, (x) the proposed amount and form of consideration and terms and conditions of payment offered by the Tag-Along Transferee, (y) all other
material terms of the proposed Tag Sale, including the expected closing date thereof, and (z) in the case of the Tag-Along Notice, an offer to the other Members holding Common Units to participate in such
Tag Sale in accordance with this Section 5.2. 

  
 26 

 Section 5.3. Liquidity Right. 

(a) Series A Liquidity Rights. For such time as the Default Manager is serving in such capacity, the Default Manager shall have the
right (the “Series A Liquidity Right”) to cause the Company, on one or more occasions, to (i) dispose of Madewell Shares in accordance with this Section 5.3, (ii) effect a payment-in-kind of Madewell shares to redeem, prepay or otherwise pay amounts owing to lenders of the Series A-1 Loans in accordance
with the terms of the Series A-1 Credit Agreement, or (iii) effect any combination of the transactions described in clauses (i) and (ii). For the avoidance of doubt, the Default Manager shall have
the right, in its sole discretion, to determine whether to dispose of or effect a payment-in-kind of the Madewell Shares, or any combination of disposal and payment-in-kind of Madewell Shares, pursuant to this Section 5.3(a) in a manner that maximizes the value of such shares for the benefit of the
lenders of the Series A-1 Loans. 
 (b) Sponsor Liquidity Right. As of any time after 48
months from the date hereof, if the Madewell LTV exceeds the Permitted Series C Madewell LTV, then, so long as the TPG Member holds any Series C Units, the Sponsor Members shall have the right (the “Sponsor Liquidity Right”) to
cause the Company, on one or more occasions, to (i) dispose of Madewell Shares in accordance with this Section 5.3, (ii) effect a
Distribution-in-Kind to the Members of Madewell Shares in accordance with Section 8.1 and Section 8.2, or
(iii) effect any combination of the transactions described in clauses (i) and (ii). Upon an exercise of a Sponsor Liquidity Right, each of the individuals managing the disposition or Distribution-in-Kind of Madewell Shares on behalf of the Sponsor Members pursuant to the Sponsor Liquidity Right shall be a senior investment professional affiliated with the Sponsor Members. For the
avoidance of doubt, in the event that the Sponsor Managers wish to exercise a Sponsor Liquidity Right during a time period in which the Default Manager has the right to exercise a Series A Liquidity Right, the Sponsor Members shall have the right to
exercise such Sponsor Liquidity Right only if the lenders of the Series A-1 Loans have not sought, or caused to be effectuated, a sale, payment or redemption within the prior rolling 90 day period. 

(c) Notice; Actions. Upon notice by the Default Manager to the other Managers, the Company, the Sponsor Members and the Lender Members
of the exercise of the Series A Liquidity Right or Sponsor Liquidity Right, as applicable, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to effect such disposition, payment or distribution as promptly as reasonably practicable. The Managers shall, and
shall require the Company to, take all actions reasonably requested by the Default Manager or Sponsor Liquidity Right, as applicable in connection with effecting a disposal, payment or
Distribution-in-Kind pursuant to the exercise of a Series A Liquidity Right or Sponsor Liquidity Right, as applicable. 

(d) Limitations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, 

(i) the consideration payable in connection with any disposal of Madewell Shares by the Company pursuant to this
Section 5.3 shall be solely for cash consideration; and 
 (ii) the Company shall have no obligation to dispose of
or distribute more than 20% of the total issued and outstanding Madewell Shares (which total, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include Madewell Shares not held by the Company) pursuant to this Section 5.3 in any rolling 90
day period. 

  
 27 

 Section 5.4. Sponsor Sales. Each of the Sponsor Members shall not dispose of any
Madewell Shares directly or indirectly held by such Sponsor Member (a “Sponsor Sale”) unless and until such time as the Company has disposed of all Madewell Shares then held by it, except for any transaction entered into
(a) by the Company for the disposal of Madewell Shares pursuant to this Agreement, or (b) by a Sponsor Member for the disposal of Madewell Shares
Distributed-in-Kind to such Sponsor Member. 

Section 5.5. Call Rights and Forfeiture. 

(a) Call Option. Except as the Board of Managers may otherwise agree in writing with any Management Member with respect to Management
Units held by such Management Member (or any Person to whom any Management Units were originally issued at the request of such Management Member) or originally issued to such Management Member (or other Person at the request of such Management
Member) but held by one or more direct or indirect Permitted Transferees (collectively, the “Management Call Group”), upon any termination of service by the Company Subsidiaries of any Management Member (whether such
termination is by the Company, by such Management Member or otherwise), the Company will have the right to purchase for cash all or any portion of the Management Units held by the Management Call Group on the terms set forth in this
Section 5.5 (the “Management Call Option”); provided, that, in lieu of the Company purchasing such Management Units from the Management Member for cash, the purchase may be structured
as a redemption by the Company of the Management Units in exchange for Madewell Shares or J.Crew Shares, or any combination thereof, and a repurchase by Madewell or J.Crew, as applicable, of such Madewell Shares or J.Crew Shares, as applicable, in
cash on the same basis as otherwise provided in this Section 5.5. 
 (b) Termination other than for Cause.

termination or resignation, such Management Member Competes, the Board of Managers will have the right, on one or more occasions, at any time up to and including the date that is 90 days following the later to occur of (i) the first date on

MANAGEMENT AND OPERATION OF THE COMPANY 

Section 6.1. Board of Managers. 

(a) Management. In accordance with Section 18-402 of the Act, management of the Company
shall be vested in the Board of Managers consisting of one or more Managers appointed in the manner provided in this Agreement. A Manager is not required to hold Units in order to serve as a Manager. The Board of Managers shall have the power to do
any and all lawful acts necessary or convenient to or for the furtherance of the purposes of the Company set forth in this Agreement, including causing the Company to sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of any or all of the assets of the Company in
a single transaction or a series of related transactions and the giving or withholding of any consent or the exercising or not exercising of any rights held by the Company with respect to any Company Subsidiary. 

(b) Number, Appointment. The Board of Managers shall consist of three Managers, except that at any time that a Default Manager has been
appointed pursuant to Section 6.1(c) the Board of Managers shall consist of four Managers. Appointments made pursuant to this Section 6.1 shall be evidenced by an instrument in writing signed by the party or parties
entitled to make such appointments, and delivered to the Company. Each Manager shall hold office until his or her successor is appointed and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation, removal or death. The Board of Managers shall consist of
the following Managers: 
 (i) two Managers designated by the Sponsor Members (the “Sponsor Managers”); and 

(ii) one Manager (the “Independent Manager”), as set forth on Schedule 2 attached hereto, who is an individual
not employed or affiliated with the Sponsor Members or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, to be appointed by the Major Series C Holders. If, at any time, there are no Major Series C Holders, the Independent Manager shall be appointed by the
Series C Majority. 
 (c) Default Manager. As of the last day of each fiscal quarter beginning 33 months from the date hereof, if the
Madewell LTV exceeds the Permitted Series A-1 Madewell LTV, then, so long as the Lender Members are lenders of any Series A-1 Loans, the number of Managers constituting
the Board of Managers shall automatically be increased by one and the holders of a majority in interest of the outstanding Series A-1 Loans, excluding the Sponsor Members and their Affiliates (the
“Series A-1 Majority”), shall be entitled to determine how such newly created Manager is appointed, including in accordance with applicable provisions of the Series A-1 Credit Agreement (the “Default Manager”). The Series A-1 Majority shall be entitled to appoint the Default Manager to the Board of Managers until
the Madewell LTV ceases to exceed the Permitted Series A-1 Madewell LTV. At such time that the Madewell LTV is determined in good faith by the Board of Managers in accordance with
Section 6.5 to cease to exceed the Permitted Series A-1 Madewell LTV, the Lender Members will cause the Default Manager to immediately resign and the number of Managers constituting
the Board of Managers shall automatically be decreased by one. The Company shall, in accordance with Section 11.1, 

  
 31 

 
indemnify and hold harmless the Default Manager against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage or expense incurred without negligence or willful misconduct by the Default Manager, arising out
of or in connection with the duties and responsibilities of the Default Manager and pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, expenses and reimbursement of
expenses (including all fees and expenses of advisors retained by the Default Manager but excluding any discounts or commissions in respect of any underwriters, who shall be retained by the Company as needed) related to serving as Default Manager;
provided, the foregoing shall in no way limit the reimbursement obligations of Madewell under the Registration Rights Agreement, and there shall be no duplication of recovery by the Default Manager to the extent the Company arranges for any amounts
that are reimbursable pursuant to this Section 6.1(c) to be paid or reimbursed directly to the Default Manager pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement. 

(d) Resignation; Removal; Replacement. Managers may resign at any time. Managers may be removed at any time for any reason or no reason
upon the written direction of the Member(s) that appointed such Manager pursuant to this Section 6.1, effective upon the delivery of such written direction by the removing Member(s) to the Company. For the avoidance of
doubt, the removal of the Independent Manager shall be effective upon the written direction of the Major Series C Holders or, if there are no Major Series C Holders, the Series C Majority. 

(e) Action by Board of Managers. Any action required or permitted to be taken by the Board of Managers shall be taken by written consent
of the Board of Managers in accordance with this Section 6.1(e), without a meeting of the Board of Managers. Any action taken by the Board of Managers shall be evidenced by one or more written consents describing the action
to be taken by the Board of Managers that are signed by the Managers entitled to vote on such matter. Unless otherwise provided by this Agreement, action taken under this Section 6.1(e) is effective when a majority of the
Managers have signed the consent, unless the consent specifies a different effective date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any action proposed to be taken by written consent shall be delivered to each Manager at least 72 hours prior to the execution
and effectiveness of such action by written consent. An electronic mail or similar transmission by a Manager, or other electronic reproduction of a writing signed by a Manager, shall be regarded as signed by the Manager for purposes of this
Section 6.1(e). For purposes of this Agreement, each Manager shall have one vote on each matter submitted to a vote of the Board of Managers and a “majority of the Managers” or similar means the Managers holding a
majority of the votes of all of the Managers entitled to be cast hereunder.

adjourn the meeting from time to time, with notice of the time and place of the adjourned meeting provided to any Manager who is not in attendance at the meeting, until a 

  
 32 

 
quorum shall be present. If a meeting is duly called by a majority of the Managers then serving on the Board, and such meeting is adjourned for failure to meet quorum requirements due to the
absence of the Independent Manager at two consecutive duly called meetings, quorum for such reconvened meeting shall not require the presence of the Independent Manager. 

Section 6.2. Officers. 

(a) Appointment of Officers. The Board of Managers may appoint individuals as officers (“Officers”) of the
Company, which may include such Officers (such as any number of Vice Presidents) as the Board of Managers deems advisable. No Officer need be a Member or a Manager. An individual can be appointed to more than one office.

Officer, for any reason or for no reason, at any time. Any Officer may resign at any time by giving written notice to the Board of Managers, and such resignation shall take effect at the date of the receipt of that notice or any later time specified
in that notice; provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified in that notice, the acceptance of the resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective. Any such resignation shall be without prejudice to the rights, if
any, of the Company or such Officer under this Agreement. A vacancy in any office because of death, resignation, removal or otherwise shall be filled in the manner prescribed in this Agreement for regular appointments to that office.

 ARTICLE VII 

ALLOCATIONS AND OTHER TAX MATTERS 

Section 7.1. General Application. The rules set forth below in this Article VII shall apply for the purposes of determining
each Member’s general allocable share of the items of income, gain, loss or expense of the Company comprising Net Income or Net Loss for each fiscal year, determining special allocations of other items of income, gain, loss and expense, and
adjusting the balance of each Member’s Capital Account to reflect the aforementioned general and special allocations. For each fiscal year, the special allocations in Section 7.3 shall be made immediately prior to the
general allocations of Section 7.2. 
 Section 7.2. General Allocations. 

(a) Generally. The Net Income or Net Losses of the Company for any fiscal year shall be allocated among the Persons who were Members
during such fiscal year in a manner that will, as nearly as possible, cause the Capital Account balance of each Member at the end of such fiscal year to equal the excess (which may be negative) of: 

(i) the hypothetical distribution (if any) that such Member would receive if, on the last day of the fiscal year: (A) all Company assets,
including cash, were sold for cash equal to their Gross Asset Values, taking into account any adjustments thereto for such fiscal year; (B) all Company liabilities were satisfied in cash according to their terms (limited, with respect to each
Nonrecourse Liability, to the Gross Asset Value of the assets securing such liability); and (C) the net proceeds thereof (after satisfaction of such liabilities) were distributed in full pursuant to Section 8.1(a),
over 
 (ii) the sum of: (A) the amount, if any, which such Member is obligated to contribute to the capital of the Company,
(B) such Member’s share of the Company Minimum Gain determined pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-2(g), and (C) such Member’s share of Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain
determined pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(5), all computed immediately prior to the hypothetical sale described in Section 7.2(a)(i). 

(b) Net Income and Net Loss. For the avoidance of doubt, allocations under Section 7.2(a) will be allocations
of Net Income and Net Loss and not individual items of gross income, gain, deduction or loss. 
 (c) Loss Limitation. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Section 7.2, the amount of items of expense and loss comprising Net Loss of the Company allocated pursuant to this Section 7.2 to any Member shall not exceed the
maximum amount of such items that can be so allocated without causing such Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any fiscal year. The portion of Net Loss in excess of the limitation set forth

  
 35 

 
in this Section 7.2(a)(ii) shall be allocated first, to Members who would not have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit, pro rata, in proportion to their Capital Account
balances, adjusted as provided in clauses (a) and (b) of the definition of Adjusted Capital Account Deficit, until no Member would be entitled to any further allocation, and thereafter, to all Members, pro rata, in proportion to the
aggregate number of Units held by such Member relative to the aggregate number of Units held by all Members of the Company holding Units. 

Section 7.3. Special Allocations. The following special allocations shall be made in the following order: 

(a) Minimum Gain Chargeback. In the event that there is a net decrease during a fiscal year in either Company Minimum Gain or Member
Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain, then notwithstanding any other provision of this Article VII, each Member shall receive such special allocations of items of Company income and gain as are required in order to conform to Regulations Section 1.704-2. 
 (b) Qualified Income Offset. Subject to
Section 7.3(a), but notwithstanding any other provision of this Article VII, items of income and gain shall be specially allocated to the Members in a manner that complies with the “qualified income offset”
requirement of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(3). 
 (c) Deficit Capital Accounts
Generally. In the event that a Member has a deficit Capital Account balance at the end of any fiscal year which is in excess of the sum of: (i) the amount such Member is then obligated to restore pursuant to this Agreement; and
(ii) the amount such Member is then deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5),
respectively, such Member shall be specially allocated items of income and gain of the Company (consisting of a pro rata portion of each item of income and gain of the Company for such fiscal year in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)) in an amount of such excess as quickly as possible, provided, that, any allocation under this Section 7.3(c) shall be made only if and to
the extent that a Member would have a deficit Capital Account balance in excess of such sum after all allocations provided for in this Article VII have been tentatively made as if this Section 7.3(c) were not in this
Agreement. 
 (d) Deductions Attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt. Any item of loss or expense of the Company that is attributable
to Member Nonrecourse Debt shall be specially allocated to the Members in the manner in which they share the economic risk of loss (as defined in Regulations Section 1.752-2) for such Member Nonrecourse
Debt. 
 (e) Allocation of Nonrecourse Deductions. Each Nonrecourse Deduction of the Company shall be specially allocated among the
Members pro rata to their relative ownership of Units. 

  
 36 

 (f) Section 754 Adjustments. 

(i) To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any asset of the Company pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or
Section 743(b) is required, pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4), to be taken into account in
determining Capital Accounts as the result of a distribution to a Member in complete liquidation of such Member’s interest in the Company, the amount of such adjustment to Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment
increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis) and such gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Members in accordance with their interests in the Company in the event Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) applies, or to the Member to whom such distribution was made in the event Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) applies. 

(ii) The amounts of any income, gain, loss or deduction of the Company available to be specially allocated pursuant to this
Section 7.3 shall be determined by applying rules analogous to those set forth in subparagraphs (a) through (f) of the definitions of Net Income and Net Loss. 

Section 7.4. Allocation of Nonrecourse Liabilities. For purposes of determining each Member’s share of Nonrecourse
Liabilities, if any, of the Company in accordance with Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3), the Members’ interests in the Company’s profits shall be determined in the same manner as prescribed by
Section 7.3(e). 
 Section 7.5. Other Allocation Rules. 

(a) Tax Allocations; Other Allocation Rules. 

(i) Tax Allocations. Tax allocations of each item of income, gain, loss, or deduction of the Company for federal income tax purposes
for each fiscal year or other accounting period of the Company shall be made consistent with and in the same proportion as the corresponding allocations of such items of income, gain, loss or deduction that are made pursuant to Sections 7.2
and 7.3 for such year or period, except that, solely for tax purposes, items of income, expense, gain and loss with respect to assets of the Company reflected hereunder in the Members’ Capital Accounts and on the books of the Company at
values that differ from the Company’s adjusted tax basis in such assets shall be allocated among the Members so as to take account of those differences in a manner which will comply with Code Sections 704(b) and 704(c) and the Regulations
promulgated thereunder as determined in good faith by the Board of Managers. 
 (ii) Changes in Members’ Interests. If during
any fiscal year or other accounting period of the Company there is a change in any Member’s interest in the Company, the Board of Managers shall allocate Net Income or Net Loss to the Members in a manner that complies with the provisions of
Code Section 706 and the Regulations thereunder; provided, that, if the change is a result of a transfer of Units and the transferor and transferee notify the Company in writing that they desire to allocate Net Income or Net Loss
for such fiscal year based on a closing of the books of the Company as of the end of the date of the transfer the Company shall allocate Net Income or Net Loss for such fiscal year between the transferor and the transferee based upon a closing of
the books as of the end of such day. 

  
 37 

 (iii) Credits. All tax credits of the Company for a fiscal year or other accounting
period (or portion thereof, if appropriate) shall be allocated among the Members in accordance with their interests in such items in a manner reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of Managers, consistent with applicable law. 

(iv) Depreciation Recapture. 

(A) If the Company recognizes Depreciation Recapture (as defined below) in respect of the sale of any Company asset: 

(1) the portion of the gain on such sale that is allocated to a Member pursuant to Section 7.2 or
7.3 shall be treated as consisting of a portion of the Company’s Depreciation Recapture on the sale and a portion of the Company’s remaining gain on such sale under principles consistent with Regulations Section 1.1245-1; and 
 (2) if, for federal income tax purposes, the Company
recognizes both “unrecaptured Section 1250 gain” (as defined in Code Section 1(h)) and gain treated as ordinary income under Code Section 1250(a) in respect of such sale, the amount treated as Depreciation Recapture under
Section 7.5(a)(iv)(A) shall be comprised of a proportionate share of both such types of gain. 

(B) For purposes of this Section 7.5(a)(iv) “Depreciation Recapture” means
the portion of any gain from the disposition of an asset of the Company which, for federal income tax purposes (a) is treated as ordinary income under Code Section 1245, (b) is treated as ordinary income under Code Section 1250, or
(c) is “unrecaptured Section 1250 gain” as such term is defined in Code Section 1(h). 
 (b) Tax Withholding and
Payments. 
 (i) If the Company receives proceeds in respect of which a tax has been withheld, the Company shall be treated as having
received cash in an amount equal to the amount of such withheld tax, and, for all purposes of this Agreement each Member shall be treated as having received a distribution under Article VIII equal to the portion of the withholding tax
allocable to such Member, as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of Managers. 
 (ii) If the Company incurs a tax obligation
with respect to the share of income allocated to any Member , any amount which is (A) actually withheld from a distribution that would otherwise have been made to such Member, or (B) paid to the applicable taxing authority in satisfaction
of such tax obligation, shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as if such amount had been distributed to such Member under Article VIII. 

(iii) Taxes withheld or paid pursuant to Sections 7.5(b)(i) or (ii), but which exceed the amount, if any, actually withheld from
a distribution which would otherwise have been made to such Member, shall be treated as an advance to such Member. Amounts treated as advanced to any Member pursuant to this Section 7.5(b)(iii) shall be repaid by such
Member to the Company within 30 days after the Board of Managers gives notice to such Member making demand therefor. Any amounts so advanced and not timely repaid shall bear 

  
 38 

 
interest, commencing on the expiration of said 30 day period, compounded monthly on unpaid balances, at an annual rate equal to the Applicable Federal Rate as of such expiration date. The Company
shall collect any unpaid amounts from any distributions by the Company that would otherwise be made to such Member. 
 (iv) The Company
shall not be liable for any excess taxes withheld or paid in respect of any Member’s Units, and, in the event of any such over withholding or overpayment, a Member’s sole recourse shall be to apply for a refund from the appropriate
governmental authority. If the Company or any of its respective Affiliates, or any of their respective shareholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees, managers and, as determined in good faith by the Board of Managers in its
discretion, consultants or agents, becomes liable as a result of any Tax assessments allocable to any Member or a failure to withhold and remit or pay taxes in respect of any Member, then such Member shall, unless otherwise agreed by the Board of
Managers in writing, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless the Company or any of its respective Affiliates, or any of their respective shareholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees, managers and, as
determined in good faith by the Board of Managers in its discretion, consultants or agents, as the case may be, in respect of all taxes, including interest and penalties, and any expenses incurred in any examination, determination, resolution and
payment of such liability. The provisions contained in this Section 7.5(b) shall survive the termination of the Company, the termination of this Agreement and the Transfer of any Units.

 (e) Other Tax Elections. 

(i) Elections by the Company. Except to the extent inconsistent with any other provision herein, the Board of Managers may make, or
refrain from making, in its sole and absolute discretion, any tax election provided under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign tax law; provided, however that any change to a material tax election by the Company must be made
with the consent of the Independent Manager. All decisions and other matters concerning the computation and allocation of items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credits among the Members, and accounting procedures not specifically and expressly

the Board of Managers may, as a condition to furnishing such information or filing such return or report, require such Member to pay to the Company any incremental expenses incurred in connection therewith.

Member necessary (A) to allow the Company to comply with any tax reporting, tax withholding or tax payment obligations of the Company or (B) to establish the Company’s legal entitlement to an exemption from, or reduction of,
withholding or other taxes or similar payments, including tax under Sections 1471 and 1472 of the Code. A Member who acquires a Unit shall promptly furnish to the Company such information as the Company shall reasonably request to enable it to
compute the adjustments required by Section 755 of the Code and the Regulations thereunder. If any Member fails to provide any of the information (or undertake any of the actions) required under this
Section 7.5(e)(iii), the Board of Managers shall have full authority to take any steps as the Board of Managers determines in its sole discretion are necessary or appropriate to mitigate the consequences of such
Member’s failure to comply with this Section 7.5(e)(iii) on the Company and the other Members. 
 (iv) ECI
Covenant. The Company shall hold no assets other than the shares of stock of Chinos and J.Crew, ownership interests in BD Holdco, cash and any other assets incidental thereto. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the

directly or indirectly, purchase, acquire or otherwise be treated as the owner of a Prohibited Asset.

Parties agree that the Series B Units and the Series D Units will not be treated as partnership interests under the Code and Regulations promulgated thereunder, and unless required by a “determination” within the meaning of

this Section 8.3 is not made due to the application of the limitations in clause (x) or clause (y) of the immediately preceding proviso, such distributions shall roll over and be made as soon as such applicable
limitation no longer applies. If the aggregate distributions calculated for the Members pursuant to this Section 8.3 cannot be made as a result of the limitations in clause (x) or (y) hereof or for any other reason,
the amount available to distribute pursuant to this Section 8.3 shall be distributed to the Members pro rata based on their relative shares of the amounts calculated for such Members pursuant to this
Section 8.3, including any roll over amounts from prior periods. 
 Section 8.4. Company Expenses. In
connection with any distribution under this Article VIII, the Board may cause the Company to establish such reserves as it deems reasonably necessary for Company Expenses and any other contingent or unforeseen Company liabilities. The
reserves established shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to the Members in the proportions that such amount of reserves otherwise was distributable. At the expiration of such period as shall be deemed reasonably advisable by the Board,
the balance plus any earnings thereon shall be distributed to the Members pursuant to Section 8.1(a). Any amounts reserved pursuant to this Section 8.3 shall be invested by the Company in Temporary
Investments as the Board deems appropriate in its discretion.

INDEMNIFICATION 

Section 11.1. Right to Indemnification of Managers and Officers. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended, any person (an “Indemnified Person”) who was or is made or is threatened to be made a party or is otherwise involved in any action, suit
or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “Proceeding”), by reason of the fact that such person, or a person for whom such person is the legal representative, is or was a Manager or Officer,
while a Manager or Officer, is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, manager, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust, enterprise or nonprofit
entity, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, or is or was designated as the Tax Matters Representative, against all liability and loss suffered and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred by such
Indemnified Person in such Proceeding. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, except as otherwise provided in Section 11.3, the Company shall be required to indemnify an Indemnified Person in connection with a Proceeding
(or part thereof) commenced by such Indemnified Person only if the commencement of such Proceeding (or part thereof) by the Indemnified Person was authorized in advance by the Board of Managers. 

Section 11.2. Prepayment of Expenses. The Company shall pay the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an
Indemnified Person in defending any Proceeding in advance of its final disposition, provided, however, that, to the extent required by law, such payment of expenses in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding shall be
made only upon receipt of an undertaking by the Indemnified Person to repay all amounts advanced if it should be ultimately determined that the Indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article XI or otherwise. 

  
 45 

 Section 11.3. Claims by Manager and Officers. If a claim for indemnification or
advancement of expenses under this Article XI is not paid in full within 30 days after a written claim therefor by the Indemnified Person has been received by the Company, the Indemnified Person may file suit to recover the unpaid amount of
such claim and, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such claim. In any such action the Company shall have the burden of proving that the Indemnified Person is not entitled to the requested
indemnification or advancement of expenses under applicable law. 
 Section 11.4. Indemnification of Employees and Agents. The
Company may indemnify and advance expenses to any person who was or is made or is threatened to be made or is otherwise involved in any Proceeding by reason of the fact that such person, or a person for whom such person is the legal representative,
is or was an employee or agent of the Company or, while an employee or agent of the Company, is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, manager, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint
venture, limited liability company, trust, enterprise or nonprofit entity, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, against all liability and loss suffered and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred by such
person in connection with such Proceeding. The ultimate determination of entitlement to indemnification of persons who are non-managers or officer employees or agents shall be made in such manner as is
determined in good faith by the Board of Managers in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Company shall not be required to indemnify a person in connection with a Proceeding initiated by such person if the Proceeding was
not authorized in advance by the Board of Managers. 
 Section 11.5. Advancement of Expenses of Employees and Agents. The
Company may pay the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an employee or agent in defending any Proceeding in advance of its final disposition on such terms and conditions as may be determined in good faith by the Board of Managers.

 Section 11.6. Non-Exclusivity of Rights; Primary Obligation. The rights conferred on
any person by this Article XI shall not be exclusive of any other rights which such person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the certificate of formation, this Agreement, any other agreement, vote of the Members or
disinterested Managers or otherwise. The Company hereby agrees (a) that it is the indemnitor of first resort (and that its obligations to an Indemnified Person are primary and any obligation of any other Person (including, for the avoidance of
doubt, the Investor Parties) to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by an Indemnified Person are secondary), and (b) that it shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses
incurred by an Indemnified Person and shall be liable for the full amount of all expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement to the extent legally permitted and as required by the terms of this Agreement (or any other
agreement between the Company and an Indemnified Person), without regard to any rights the Indemnified Person may have against any other Person. Notwithstanding the fact that the Sponsor Members and/or their Affiliates, other than the Company (such
Persons, together with their respective heirs, successors and assigns, the “Investor Parties”), may have concurrent liability to an Indemnified Person with respect to the indemnification, reimbursements,

  
 46 

 
advancements or similar payments contemplated by this Article XI (the “Indemnity Obligations”), the Company hereby agrees that in no event shall the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries have any right or claim against any of the Investor Parties for contribution or have rights of subrogation against any of the Investor Parties through an Indemnified Person for any payment made by the Company with respect to any
Indemnity Obligation. In addition, the Company hereby agrees that in the event that any of the Investor Parties pay or advance to an Indemnified Person any amount with respect to an Indemnity Obligation, the Company will promptly reimburse such
Investor Parties for such payment or advance upon request. The Investor Parties are express third-party beneficiaries of the terms of this Section 11.6. 

Section 11.7. Insurance. The Board of Managers may, to the full extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists, or may
hereafter be amended from time to time, authorize an appropriate Officer or Officers to purchase and maintain at the Company’s expense insurance in form, scope and substance satisfactory to the Board of Managers to (a) indemnify the
Company for any obligation which it incurs as a result of the indemnification of Managers, Officers and employees under the provisions of this Article XI, and (b) indemnify or insure Managers, Officers and employees against liability in
instances in which they may not otherwise be indemnified by the Company under the provisions of this Article XI. 

Section 11.8. Waiver of Business Opportunities Doctrine. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the doctrine of corporate
opportunity, or any analogous doctrine, shall not apply to (i) the Sponsor Members, the Sponsor Managers, and their respective Affiliates, or (ii) any other Members or Managers that are not (and whose Affiliates are not) full-time
employees or officers of the Company or the Company Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Business Opportunities Exempt Parties”). The Company renounces any interest or expectancy of the Company in, or in being offered an
opportunity to participate in, business opportunities that are from time to time presented to any Business Opportunity Exempt Party. No Business Opportunity Exempt Party who acquires knowledge of a potential transaction, agreement, arrangement or
other matter that may be an opportunity for the Company shall have any duty to communicate or offer such opportunity to the Company, and such Business Opportunity Exempt Party shall not be liable to the Company, the Company Subsidiaries or to its
Members for breach of any fiduciary or other duty by reason of the fact that such Business Opportunity Exempt Party pursues or acquires, or directs such opportunity to another Person or does not communicate such opportunity or information to the
Company. The parties hereto expressly acknowledge and agree that the Business Opportunity Exempt Parties and their respective Affiliates will not be prohibited by virtue of their investment in the Company or participation on the Board of Managers
from pursuing and engaging in any business ventures or arrangements, including any business ventures or arrangements that are or may be competitive with the Company and the Company Subsidiaries. In addition, the doctrine of corporate opportunity, or
any analogous doctrine, shall not apply to a Member or Manager unless the opportunity involves the Competitive Business. 

  
 47 

 Section 11.9. Waiver of Fiduciary Duties. 

(a) Managers. Each of the Members acknowledges and agrees that (i) each Manager that is not an employee of the Company or any
Company Subsidiary is the designee of the Member(s) that appointed such Manager, is acting, in his or her capacity as a Manager, as a proxy for such Member(s) with respect to the management of the Company and does not have, in his or her capacity as
a Manager, any duties (including fiduciary duties) to the Company, any Company Subsidiary or any other Member, nor shall any Member have any such duty, and (ii) each Manager that is not an employee of the Company or any Company subsidiary, in
determining whether or not to vote in support of or against any particular decision for which the Board of Managers’ consent is required, may act in and consider the best interest of the Member who designated such Manager and shall not be
required to act in or consider the best interests of the Company or the other Members or parties hereto, except to the extent expressly set forth in this Agreement. Each of the Members agree that any duties to the Company or to any other Member,
whether express or implied (including fiduciary duties), of a Manager that is not an employee of the Company or any Company Subsidiary, in his or her capacity as such, that would otherwise apply at law or in equity are hereby eliminated to the
fullest extent permitted under the Act (including Section 18-1101(c) of the Act) and any other applicable law, and each Member hereby waives all rights to, and releases each Manager that is not an
employee of the Company or any Company Subsidiary in his or her capacity as such from any such duties, except to the extent expressly set forth in this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (A) the
foregoing shall not eliminate or limit the obligation of the any Manager to act in compliance with the express terms of this Agreement (other than the foregoing), and (B) the foregoing shall not be deemed to eliminate fiduciary duties of the
Independent Manager, in his or her capacity as a Manager, to the Company or the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing of the Independent Manager, in each case, in connection with any determination by the Independent Manager to
provide or withhold consent pursuant Section 10.1(a)(i) or Section 6.3(a). Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to
constitute any Manager that is not an employee of the Company or the Company Subsidiaries or Member an agent or legal representative of any other Member or to create any fiduciary relationship for any purpose whatsoever, apart from such obligations
between the members of a limited liability company as may be created by the Act. 
 (b) Members. Each of the Members acknowledges and
agrees that the sole duty and responsibility of any Member pursuant to this Agreement, applicable law or otherwise, shall be to act in the interest of such Member, as determined by the applicable Member in its sole discretion, and there shall be no
limitations on such Member’s right to act as determined by the Member (in its capacity as such) in its sole discretion, except as otherwise specifically provided herein. In connection therewith, the Member may take into account only the
Member’s best interests and the Member shall not be required to take into account the interest of any other Member or any other Person other than its own. No Member (in its capacity as such) shall have any fiduciary or other implied duties or
responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall any fiduciary functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or any liabilities be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against such Member. To the maximum extent permitted
by applicable law, no Member (in its capacity as such) shall be a trustee or fiduciary for any other Member or the Company by reason of this Agreement. To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Member and the Company waive any fiduciary or other
express or implied covenant, duty or other obligation of the Member (in its capacity as such) to the other Members, the Company, any Company Subsidiaries or any third party, except for the specific obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement.
To the maximum extent allowed by applicable law, each Member and the Company hereby waive all of the foregoing and all other duties, responsibilities 

  
 48 

 
or obligations (fiduciary or otherwise) that might otherwise apply to each. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the foregoing shall not eliminate or limit the
obligation of the any Member to act in compliance with the express terms of this Agreement (other than the foregoing). Except as expressly set forth herein, a Member shall not have any authority to act for, or to assume any obligation or
responsibility on behalf of, any other Member, the Company or any Company Subsidiary. 
 Section 11.10. Amendment or Repeal. Any
repeal or modification of the foregoing provisions of this Article XI shall not adversely affect any right or protection hereunder of any Person in respect of any act or omission occurring prior to the time of such repeal or modification. The
rights provided hereunder shall inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Person and such Person’s heirs, executors and administrators.

relating to, or in connection with this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (a “Dispute”) shall be arbitrated pursuant to the Delaware Rapid
Arbitration Act, 10 Del. C § 5801, et seq. (the “DRAA”). The Parties agree to take all steps necessary or advisable to submit any Dispute that cannot be resolved by the Parties for arbitration under the DRAA (the
“Arbitration”) in accordance with this Section 12.3, and each Party represents and warrants that it is not a “consumer” as such term is defined in 6 Del. C. § 2731. By executing this
Agreement, (i) each Party waives, and acknowledges and agrees that it shall be deemed to have waived, any objection to the application of the procedures set forth in the DRAA, (ii) consents to the procedures set forth in the DRAA, and
(iii) acknowledges and agrees that it has chosen freely to waive the matters set forth in subsections (b) and (c) of Section 5803 of the DRAA. IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, EACH PARTY AGREES THAT IT WILL RAISE NO OBJECTION TO THE
SUBMISSION OF THE DISPUTE TO ARBITRATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS SECTION 12.3 AND UNDERSTANDS THAT IT WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO LAY CLAIM TO JURISDICTION IN ANY VENUE AND ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO HAVE THE DISPUTE DECIDED BY A JURY.

 (b) Rules. The Arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the Delaware Rapid Arbitration Rules (the
“Rules”), as such Rules may be amended or changed from time to time; provided, that, the parties to a Dispute may agree to depart from the Rules by (i) adopting new or different rules to govern the
Arbitration, or (ii) modifying or rejecting the application of certain of the Rules. To be effective, any departure from the Rules shall require the consent of the Arbitrator and shall be in writing and signed by an authorized representative of
each such party to the Dispute. 
 (c) Venue. The Arbitration shall take place in Wilmington, Delaware, or such other location as the
Parties may agree in a signed writing. 

  
 50 

 (d) Arbitrator. The Arbitration shall be presided over by one arbitrator (the
“Arbitrator”) who shall be appointed by the parties to the Dispute. In the event that such person fails to accept appointment as Arbitrator for any reason within five days of being notified of such person’s appointment
or otherwise becomes unwilling or unable to serve as arbitrator, the parties to the Dispute shall promptly meet and confer to identify a mutually agreeable replacement arbitrator (the “Replacement Arbitrator”). The
Replacement Arbitrator shall have qualifications and experience substantially similar to those of the initially appointed arbitrator. In the event that the parties to the Dispute are unable to agree upon the identity of the Replacement Arbitrator
within 45 days of the commencement of the Arbitration, or the Replacement Arbitrator is unable or unwilling to serve, then either party to the Dispute may file a petition with the Delaware Court of Chancery pursuant to Section 5805 of the DRAA.

 (e) Discovery and Subpoenas. Each of the parties to the Dispute shall, subject to such limitations as the Arbitrator may prescribe,
be entitled to collect documents and testimony from each other party to the Dispute, and the Arbitrator shall have the power to administer oaths and compel the production of witnesses and documents. The Arbitrator shall have the power to issue
subpoenas and commissions for the taking of documents and testimony from third parties. 
 (f) Procedure. The Arbitrator shall conduct
the hearing, administer oaths, and make such rulings as are appropriate to the conduct of the proceedings. The Arbitrator shall allow each of the parties to the Dispute an opportunity to present evidence and witnesses and to cross examine witnesses
presented by any opposing party to the Dispute. 
 (g) Award. The arbitral award (the “Award”) shall
(i) be rendered within 120 days after the Arbitrator’s acceptance of his or her appointment, (ii) be delivered in writing, (iii) state the reasons for the Award, (iv) be the sole and exclusive final and binding remedy with
respect to the Dispute between and among the parties to the Dispute without the possibility of challenge or appeal, which are hereby waived by each of the Parties, and (v) be accompanied by a form of judgment. The Award shall be deemed an award
of the United States, the relationship between the parties to the Dispute shall be deemed commercial in nature, and any Dispute arbitrated pursuant to this Section 12.3 shall be deemed commercial. The Arbitrator shall have
the authority to grant any equitable or legal remedies, including, without limitation, entering preliminary or permanent injunctive relief; provided, however, that, the Arbitrator shall not have the authority to award (and the
Parties hereby waive the right to seek an award of) punitive or exemplary damages. 
 (h) Disclosure. The Parties agree that, subject
to any non-waivable disclosure obligations under federal law, the Arbitration, and all matters relating thereto or arising thereunder, including, without limitation, the existence of the Dispute, the
Arbitration and all of its elements (including any pleadings, briefs or other documents submitted or exchanged, any testimony or other oral submissions, any third-party discovery proceedings, including any discovery obtained pursuant thereto, and
any decision of the Arbitrator or Award), shall be kept strictly confidential, and each party hereby agrees that such information shall not be disclosed beyond (i) the Arbitrator and necessary support personnel, (ii) the participants in
the Arbitration, (iii) those assisting the parties to the Dispute in the preparation or presentation of the Arbitration, (iv) other employees or agents of the parties to the Dispute with a need to know such

  
 51 

 
information, and (v) any third parties that are subpoenaed or otherwise provide discovery in the Arbitration proceedings, only to the extent necessary to obtain such discovery. In all
events, the parties to the Dispute and any third parties participating in the Arbitration proceedings shall treat information pertaining to the Arbitration with the same care that they treat their most valuable proprietary secrets. In the event that
federal law imposes upon any party to the Dispute an obligation to disclose the fact of the Arbitration or the nature of the claims or counterclaims asserted, such parties shall disclose no more than the minimum information required by law after
first consulting with and attempting to reach agreement with the opposing parties regarding the scope and content of any such required disclosure. 

(i) Costs. Each party to the Dispute shall bear its own legal fees and costs in connection with the Arbitration; provided,
however, that, the losing party shall pay all filing fees, fees and expenses of the Arbitrator or other similar costs incurred by the parties to the Dispute in connection with the prosecution of the Arbitration. 

(j) Court Proceedings. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, or any statute protecting the confidentiality of the
Arbitration and proceedings taken in connection therewith, in the event that any party to the Arbitration is required to defend himself, herself or itself in response to later proceedings instituted by any other party to the Arbitration in any court
relating to matters decided in the Arbitration, such party shall be relieved of any obligation to hold confidential the Arbitration and its proceedings in order to submit, confidentially if and to the extent possible, sufficient information to such
court to allow it to determine whether the doctrines of res judicata, collateral estoppel, bar by judgment, or other similar doctrines apply to such subsequent proceedings. 

(k) Severability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 12.3, if any amendment to
the Act is enacted after the date of this Agreement, and such amendment would render any provision of this Section 12.3 unenforceable thereunder, such provision shall be excluded and the remaining provisions of this
Section 12.3 shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. 
 Section 12.4. Entire Agreement;
Waivers. This Agreement (including the Schedules and Exhibits hereto) and the Transaction Agreements represent the entire understanding and agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and any provision hereof can be
waived only by written instrument making specific reference to this Agreement signed by the Party against whom enforcement of any such waiver is sought. No action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including any investigation by or on behalf of any
Party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the Party taking such action of compliance with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein. The waiver by any Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not
operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. No failure on the part of any Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such Party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. All remedies hereunder are
cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law. 

  
 52 

 Section 12.5. Governing Law. This Agreement, all questions concerning the
construction, interpretation and validity of this Agreement, the rights and obligations of the parties hereto, all claims or causes of action (whether in contract, tort or statute) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement,

this Agreement) shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, including its statutes of limitations, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether in
Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than Delaware and without regard to any borrowing statute that would result in the application of the statute of limitations of any other
jurisdiction. In furtherance of the foregoing, the laws of the State of Delaware will control even if under such jurisdiction’s choice of law or conflict of law analysis, the substantive law of some other jurisdiction would ordinarily or
necessarily apply.

equal to either (i) its pro rata share (calculated as a fraction (expressed as a percentage) the numerator of which is the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Loans held by the relevant Assignor under the Facilities, taken as a whole, and
the denominator of which is the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Loans under the Facilities, taken as a whole, the “Specified Pro Rata Share”), of the Required Exchange Amount (any such Lender electing to assign,
transfer and sell its Specified Pro Rata Share of its outstanding Loans under the Facilities, a “Pro Rata Lender”) or (ii) an amount that is greater than its Specified Pro Rata Share of the Required Exchange Amount (any such
Lender electing to assign, transfer and sell an amount of its outstanding Loans under the Facilities that is greater than its Specified Pro Rata Share, a “Greater than Pro Rata Lender” and the amount of any Greater than Pro Rata
Lender’s Commitment Amount in excess of its Specified Pro Rata Share, its “Excess Commitment Amount”), which amount is equal to the greater of the (x) Original Specified Loan Amount of such Assignor and (y) the
Subsequent Specified Loan Amount of such Assignor; provided that (A) if any Assignor has not made an election as to whether it constitutes a Pro Rata Lender or a Greater than Pro Rata Lender, such Assignor shall be deemed without further
action to be a Pro Rata Lender and (B) if any Assignor specifies a Commitment Amount that is less than its Specified Pro Rata Share of the Required Exchange Amount, such Assignor shall be deemed to be a Pro Rata Lender.

Amount”) shall be determined in 

  
 10 

 
accordance with the provisions set forth in clause (c) below, and (B) such Assigned Interest shall be assigned, transferred and sold by such Assignor to the Original Assignee pursuant
to Section 2 of this Assignment and Assumption; provided, that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Loans included in such Assigned Interest (the “Assigned Loans”) shall not exceed such Assignor’s
Commitment Amount; provided, further, that the Administrative Agent (i) shall not be responsible for, and shall incur no liability with respect to, any determination of an Assigned Amount for any Assignor and (ii) shall be
entitled to conclusively rely (without liability therefor) on the Allocation Notice (including the Assigned Amounts set forth therein) in processing any assignments contemplated by this Assignment and Assumption. In the event of any conflict between
the signature page of an Assignor and the Assigned Amount reflected on the Allocation Notice, the Assigned Amount reflected on the Allocation Notice shall control and be binding. 

(c) The Assigned Amount of each Assignor shall be determined in accordance with the following provisions (or such other provisions as the
Original Assignee and the Initial Consenting Support Parties (as defined in the TSA) may reasonably agree).

amount of outstanding Loans assigned pursuant hereto (the “Aggregate Exchanged Loan Amount”) will equal the greater of (1) (A) the Required Exchange Amount minus (B) the amount of Additional Series A Senior Secured Term Loan
Net Proceeds, if any, and (2) zero. 
 (ii) If the aggregate Commitment Amounts of the Assignors exceed the Aggregate Exchanged Loan
Amount, the Aggregate Exchanged Loan Amount will be allocated in the following manner: 
 (A) if the aggregate Excess Commitment Amounts of
the Greater than Pro Rata Lenders exceed the Aggregate Exchanged Loan Amount, (1) each Greater than Pro Rata Lender shall receive its pro rata share (calculated as a fraction (expressed as a percentage) the numerator of which is the Excess
Commitment Amount of the applicable Greater than Pro Rata Lender and the denominator of which is the aggregate Excess Commitment Amounts of all Greater than Pro Rata Lenders) of the Aggregate Exchanged Loan Amount and (2) no Pro Rata Exchanging
Lender shall be entitled to any portion of the Aggregate Exchanged Loan Amount; 
 (B) if the aggregate Excess Commitment Amounts of the
Greater than Pro Rata Lenders equal the Aggregate Exchanged Loan Amount, each Greater than Pro Rata Lender shall receive its Excess Commitment Amount; and 

(C) if the aggregate Excess Commitment Amounts of the Greater than Pro Rata Lenders are less than the Aggregate Exchanged Loan Amount (the
amount by which the Aggregate Exchanged Loan Amount exceeds the Aggregate Excess Commitment Amounts of the Greater than Pro Rata Lenders, the “Required Additional Exchanged Loan Amount”), but the aggregate Commitment Amounts of all
Assignors exceed the Aggregate Exchanged Loan Amount, (1) each Greater than Pro Rata Lender shall receive 100% of its Excess Commitment Amount and (2) each Assignor shall receive its pro rata share (calculated as a fraction (expressed as a
percentage) the numerator of which is the Specified Pro Rata Share of the applicable Assignor and the denominator of which is the aggregate Specified Pro Rata Shares of all Assignors) of the Required Additional Exchanged Loan Amount. 

(iii) If the sum of the Commitment Amounts of all Assignors is equal to the Aggregate Exchanged Loan Amount, each Pro Rata Lender and each
Greater than Pro Rata Lender shall receive its Commitment Amount.

under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated March 5, 2014, among J. Crew Group, Inc., Chinos Intermediate Holdings B, Inc., the lenders party thereto, and Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB as successor administrative agent (as
further amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Term Loan Agreement”) and (ii) a new money term loan made by the Sponsor of up to $150,000,000 principal amount of Series A Loans (the “New
Money Loan”). This Term Sheet does not purport to summarize all of the terms of the definitive documentation with respect to the Series A Loans, and reference should be made to the definitive documentation for the final terms of the
Exchange, the New Money Loan and Series A Loans. 
  

			
	Terms of the Loans
		
	Exchange:	  	Exchange up to $420,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Existing Term Loans for a pro rata share of up to $420,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Series A-1 Loans.
		
	Sponsor New Money:	  	 The Sponsor will lend to the Borrower up to $150,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Series A Loans. The allocation between Series A-1 Loans and Series A-2 Loans is at the Sponsor’s discretion, subject to a maximum Madewell LTV (as defined below) through the Series
A-1 Loans of 61% on the closing date of the Madewell IPO.
  

The terms of the Series A-2 Loans will be substantially the same as the terms of the Series A-1 Loans with a maturity date that is the same or later than the maturity date for the Series A-1 Loans, except that the Series A-2
Loans will be secured by a second-priority security interest on the Collateral (as defined below) and the Series A-2 Loans will not have a financial maintenance covenant or other maintenance covenant, such as
the Madewell LTV covenant.

	
	Terms of the Series A-1 Loans and Series A-2 Loans
		
	Borrower:	  	Chinos SPV LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.
		
	Closing Date:	  	[            ], 2020

(5.5 years from the Closing Date)
  
 Series A-2
Loans: [            ], 2025 (5.5 years from the Closing Date)

  
 2 

			
		
	Interest; Interest Payment Dates:	  	The Series A Loans will bear interest at an annual rate from 9.0%-14.0%, compounding semi-annually, all or a portion of which may be payable in kind by increasing the principal amount of the
Series A-1 Loans in an amount equal to such component of the interest due (the “PIK Interest”) with such rate to be fixed prior to the closing date of the Series A Loans (the
“Closing Date”) based on the IPO public offer price and on the basis of the table set forth below. Interest on the Series A Loans will accrue from the Closing Date until the date paid in full in cash and will be payable
semi-annually in arrears on [ ] and [ ] commencing on [ ], 2020 (each, a “Payment Date”). Interest on the Series A Loans will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
		
		  	The interest rate applicable to the Series A-1 Loans received in consideration for the Exchange will be determined on the following
basis:

  

					
	 Madewell LTV
 through the Series

A-1 Loans

of the value of the Collateral.
		
	Collateral:	  	The Series A-1 Loans will be secured for the benefit of the Series A-1 Lenders by a first-priority security interest on all assets of the Borrower

the Collateral.

	2 	 NTD: The Credit Agreements will not include any other financial maintenance covenant.

other than the Borrower and its affiliates, shall have the right to appoint a manager (a “Default Manager”) to the Borrower’s board of managers (a “Default Manager Appointment”). A Default Manager
Appointment shall be the sole remedy available for a breach of the Financial Covenant. The following procedures shall apply with respect to the nomination and selection of a Default Manager:

 
 1.  Series A-1 Lenders (other than the Sponsor and its affiliates) holding at least 25% of the Non-Sponsor Outstanding Series A-1 Loans may

 2.  upon receiving a nomination for
Default Manager from the requisite lenders, the Administrative Agent will (a) provide notice to lenders of such nomination and allow for additional nominations to be made for no more than 10 business days following the receipt of such initial
nomination (the “Nomination Deadline”) and (b) following the Nomination Deadline, commence a written consent process using applicable procedures to select the Default Manager no later than 5 Business Days prior to the
date that is 33 months after the Closing Date;
  

3.  the Default Manager shall be elected by Series A-1 Lenders
holding a majority of the Non-Sponsor Outstanding Series A-1 Loans;
  

4.  the Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless the Default Manager against any and all loss,
liability, claim, damage or expense incurred without negligence or willful misconduct on its part, arising out of or in connection with the duties and responsibilities of the Default Manager and pay all fees, expenses and reimbursements of expenses
(including all fees and expenses of advisors retained by the Default Manager) related to serving as Default Manager.

  
 10 

			
		  	  
 The Default Manager will be authorized under the terms of the SPV LLC
Agreement to, on one or more occasions cause the Borrower to (a) dispose of Madewell Equity, with proceeds being applied to prepay Series A-1 Loans (a “Share Disposition”), (b)
prepay the Series A-1 loans in a principal amount equal to the Market Value (rounded to the nearest $1,000) of an amount of Madewell Equity to be issued to Series A-1
Lenders as prepayment of the Series A-1 Loans (a “Share-Settled Prepayment”) or (c) any combination of (a) and (b), in each case, making such decision to dispose of Madewell
Equity and/or transfer Madewell Equity through a Share-Settled Prepayment based on the Default Manager’s good faith belief as to the manner that will best maximize the value of Madewell Equity for the benefit of the Series A-1 Lenders. The Default Manager will be authorized to cause the Borrower to engage one or more underwriters in connection with a Share Disposition, which underwriter shall be selected by the board of managers of
the Borrower or, absent such selection within five Business Days, by the Default Manager. The Borrower shall be responsible for all costs associated with a Share Disposition and/or a Share-Settled Prepayment.

 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, the Borrower shall have no
obligation to dispose of, or transfer, more than 20% of the total issued and outstanding Madewell Equity in any Share Disposition(s) or Share-Settled Prepayment(s) in any rolling 90-day period.

 
 “Market Value” means the 10
trading-day volume weighted average trading price of the shares of Madewell Equity.
  

“Non-Sponsor Outstanding Series A-1 Loans” means the
Series A-1 Loans not held by the Sponsor or its affiliates.

		
	IPCo Notes Call Right:	  	Subject to obtaining required consents under the IPCo Notes indentures, the Series A-1 Lenders, other than the Borrower and its affiliates (including the Sponsor), will have the right to
purchase IPCo Notes under substantially the same terms and conditions set forth in the Call Right Agreement dated July 13, 2017 among Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB and U.S. Bank National Association.
		
	Events of Default:	  	 Each Credit Agreement will provide that the following, among other events, will constitute an Event of Default under the such Credit
Agreement:
  
 (a)   default in
the payment when due (on the maturity date, upon prepayment or otherwise) of the principal of, or premium, if any, on, the applicable Series A Loans;
  

(b)   other than a default referred to in clauses (a) and (b), the Borrower fails to comply
with any covenant under such Credit Agreement (other than the Financial Covenant) and such failure continues for 30 days;

  
 11 

			
		  	  
 (c)   the
Borrower fails to prepay any or all of the applicable Series A Loans to the extent required under such Credit Agreement;
  

(d)   certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Borrower; and

 
 (e)   with respect to any
Collateral, any of the documents governing the Collateral ceases to be in full force and effect; ceases to give the relevant Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the applicable Series A Lenders) the liens purported to be created thereby with the
priority contemplated thereby; or is declared null and void.
  
 An Event of Default
under each of the Credit Agreements shall be subject to customary remedies, including but not limited to, acceleration and foreclosure. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of notice and acceleration of the applicable Series A Loans, voting
thresholds will be calculated with respect to each individual Credit Agreement.

		
	Voting:	  	The Credit Agreements shall contain usual and customary provisions for transactions of this type, including provisions restricting voting rights of the Borrower and its affiliates (provided that the Sponsor shall have voting
rights with respect to the New Money Loan completed on the Closing Date). Voting thresholds contained in the Credit Agreements will be calculated with respect to each individual Credit Agreement.
		
	Amendments:	  	Any amendment to economic terms and conditions of either of the Credit Agreements will require a vote of 100% of the applicable group of Series A Lenders. Any amendments to the collateral or other security documents that result in a
release of all or substantially all of the Collateral (other than in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreements) will require a vote of the Series A-1 Lenders or Series
A-2 Lenders, as applicable, holding at least 66.67% of the outstanding Series A-1 Loans or Series A-2 Loans, as applicable. Any
amendment to other terms and conditions will require a vote of the Series A-1 Lenders or Series A-2 Lenders, as applicable, holding at least a majority of the
outstanding Series A-1 Loans or Series A-2 Loans, as applicable .

 4 

 (f) Such Subscriber understands that its investment in the Company involves a high degree of
risk and is able to bear the economic risk of such investment for an indefinite period of time, including the risk of a complete loss of such Subscriber’s investment in the Common Units. 

(g) Such Subscriber realizes and acknowledges that (i) the acquisition of the Common Units is a long-term investment, (ii) the
purchaser of the Common Units must bear the economic risk of investment for an indefinite period of time because the Common Units have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”), or under the securities laws of any state and, therefore, none of such securities can be sold unless they are subsequently registered under said laws or exemptions from such registrations are available, and there can be
no assurance that any such registration will be effected at any time in the future, (iii) such Subscriber may not be able to liquidate its investment in the event of an emergency or pledge any of such securities as collateral for loans, and
(iv) the transferability of the Common Units is restricted. 
 (h) Such Subscriber believes that its investment in the Common Units is
suitable for such Subscriber based upon its investment objectives and financial needs, and such Subscriber has adequate means for providing for its current financial needs and personal contingencies and has no need for liquidity of investment with
respect to the Common Units. 
 (i) Such Subscriber has obtained, to the extent it deems necessary, its own personal professional advice with
respect to the tax consequences of receiving, and the risks inherent in, its investment in the Common Units, and the suitability of its investment in the Common Units in light of its financial condition and investment needs. 

(j) The Common Units for which such Subscriber hereby subscribes will be acquired for its own account for investment purposes only. Such
Subscriber (i) is not purchasing the Common Units with a view toward distribution in a manner which would require registration under the Securities Act, and (ii) does not presently have any reason to anticipate any change in its
circumstances or other particular occasion or event which would cause it to sell the Common Units for which it hereby subscribes. 
 (k) Such
Subscriber understands that federal regulations and executive orders administered by the United States Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) prohibit, among other things, the engagement
in transactions with, and the provision of services to, certain foreign countries, territories, entities and individuals. 
 (l) Such
Subscriber is not a Person named on an OFAC list, nor is it a Person with whom dealings are prohibited under any OFAC regulation.

(including the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Canada), and, (ii) has not been, since December 31, 2018, in violation of any such economic sanctions laws, freezing of assets laws or export controls laws (including, in Canada, the Special
Economic Measures Act, the United Nations Act or the Export and Import Permits Act). Since December 31, 2013, neither such Subscriber nor any of its affiliates 

  
 5 

 
has made any voluntary disclosures to either U.S. or Canadian Government authorities under U.S. or Canadian economic sanctions laws or freezing of assets laws or U.S. or Canadian import or export
control laws, nor has such Subscriber or any of its affiliates been, to the knowledge of such Subscriber, the subject of any governmental investigation or inquiry regarding compliance with such laws. 

(n) Such Subscriber understands and agrees that it is purchasing the Common Units directly from the Company. Such Subscriber has, to its

information such Subscriber believes to be relevant in making its investment decision. Such Subscriber has been given reasonable opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from, representatives of the Company to obtain any additional
information, to the extent reasonably available, such Subscriber believes to be relevant in making its investment decision with respect to the Common Units. 

(o) Such Subscriber has undertaken its own independent reviews, investigations and other diligence as it believes to be prudent in connection
with its decision to subscribe for the Common Units. Such Subscriber does not intend to, and agrees and acknowledges that it is not entitled to, rely, and such Subscriber will make no claim of reliance, on any information relating to the Company or
the Common Units subscribed for hereunder by such Subscriber, or on any materials prepared by the Company or any of its affiliates including, without limitation, any reports, analyses, compilations or studies. 

(p) In connection with its investigation of the Company and its subsidiaries, such Subscriber and its equityholders, affiliates, officers,

forecasts and plans so furnished to them, including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections, forecasts and plans. Accordingly, no representation or warranty is made by the Company or any of its subsidiaries with
respect to such estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans, including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections, forecasts and plans. 

(q) Such Subscriber is: 
  

	 	(i)	 a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined under Rule 144A under the Securities Act) that is not a

warranties made in the Other Transaction Documents). Such Subscriber hereby disclaims any other express or implied representations or warranties.

Common Units will bear the following legends:

representing the aggregate amount of SPV Common Units and (ii) SPV Series C Units representing the aggregate amount of SPV Series C Units, in each case, sufficient to deliver the Merger Consideration (such shares, together any dividends or
distributions with respect thereto, hereinafter, the “Exchange Fund”). The Exchange Agent shall deliver the Merger Consideration to be issued pursuant to Section 3.1 out of the Exchange Fund. 

(b) Exchange Procedures. Prior to or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall mail to each
holder of record of a certificate (a “Chinos Certificate”) or book-entry share (an “Chinos Book-Entry Share”) that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Chinos Common Stock,
Chinos Series A Preferred Stock or Chinos Series B Preferred Stock, as applicable, and to each holder of record of a certificate (a “J.Crew Certificate” and, together with a Chinos Certificate, a “Certificate”) or
book-entry share (a “J.Crew Book-Entry Share” and, together with an J.Crew Book-Entry Share, a “Book-Entry Share”), that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of J.Crew Common Stock,
as applicable, whose shares were converted into the right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration, (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall
pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent, and which shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Chinos SPV may reasonably specify), (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of
the Certificates and Book-Entry Shares in exchange for the applicable Merger Consideration, (iii) the notification required by Section 228(e) of the DGCL with respect to the Required Stockholder Approval, (iv) a joinder to the Chinos

“qualified purchaser” as defined in Section 2(a)(51)(A) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined under Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended)]3 and (vii) such additional information as Chinos may determine is appropriate.

the Exchange Agent, the holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor that number of SPV Common Units or SPV Series C Units, as applicable, that
such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of this Article III, and the Certificate or Book-Entry Share so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. If any portion of the applicable Merger Consideration is to be registered
in the name of a person other than the person in whose name the applicable surrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Share is registered, it shall be a condition to the registration of such Merger Consideration that the surrendered Certificate shall be
properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the person requesting such delivery of the Merger Consideration shall pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other taxes required by reason of such registration in the name of a
person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this
Section 3.3, subject to the rights of the holders of Dissenting Shares, each Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender
the applicable Merger Consideration. No interest shall be paid or shall accrue for the benefit of holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares on the applicable Merger Consideration payable upon the surrender of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares.

 (c) Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares. No dividends or other distributions with respect to SPV Common Units or SPV
Series C Units with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Share with respect to any SPV Common Units represented thereby, in each case until the surrender of such
Certificate or Book-Entry Share in accordance with this Article III. Subject to the effect of any applicable laws, statutes, orders, rules, regulations, policies or guidelines promulgated, or judgments, decisions or orders entered by any
Governmental Entity (“Applicable Laws”), following surrender of any such Certificate or Book-Entry Share, there shall be paid to the holder of SPV Common Units or SPV Series C Units, as applicable, issued in exchange therefor,
without interest, at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to such surrender and a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such
SPV Common Units or SPV Series C Units. 
 (d) No Further Ownership Rights in J.Crew Common Stock, Chinos Common Stock, Chinos Series A
Preferred Stock and Chinos Series B Preferred Stock. All SPV Common Units and SPV Series C Units issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in accordance with the terms of this Article III shall be deemed to have
been issued (and paid) in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Chinos Capital Stock and J.Crew Common Stock, as applicable, theretofore represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, and there shall be no further
registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Chinos Surviving Corporation of the shares of J.Crew Common Stock, or the Chinos Surviving Corporation of the shares of Chinos Capital Stock, that were outstanding immediately prior to the

made. 
 (h) Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that
fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Chinos SPV or the Exchange Agent, the posting by such person of a bond in such reasonable amount as Chinos SPV or the Exchange Agent, as applicable, may
direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent shall deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration with respect to the shares of
..J.Crew Common Stock or Chinos Capital Stock, as applicable, formerly represented thereby, and unpaid dividends and distributions on shares of SPV Common Units or SPV Series C Units deliverable in respect thereof, pursuant to this Agreement.

execution and delivery by such party of this Agreement; and (d) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such party and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by the other parties hereto, constitutes
a legal, valid and binding obligation of such party, enforceable against such party in accordance with its terms and conditions, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, or other similar Laws relating to creditors’ rights and
general principles of equity. 
 ARTICLE V 

CONDITIONS PRECEDENT

to the Closing Date of the following conditions:

(b) each of the Series A Certificate of Designation and the Series B Certificate of Designation shall have been amended to read as set forth in

 ARTICLE VII 

INDEMNIFICATION 

Section 7.1  

(a) For a period of two (2) years following the Closing, Chinos SPV shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Chinos and J.Crew and their
respective officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all losses imposed on or incurred by any of the Indemnified Parties, in respect
of any claim, action, proceeding or investigation (a “Claim”) arising out of or resulting from the exercise of appraisal rights in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL. 

(b) If any such Claim shall be brought, threatened or asserted against an Indemnified Party, Chinos or J.Crew, as applicable, shall promptly
notify Chinos SPV if Chinos SPV is not a party to such Claim. If Chinos SPV so elects, Chinos SPV will have the right to assume the defense of any such Claim, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to Chinos or J.Crew, as
applicable, and the payment of the fees and disbursements of such counsel. In the event, however, (a) such Indemnified Person reasonably determines in its judgment, based on the advice of counsel, that having common counsel would present such
counsel with a conflict of interest or the representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them, including situations in which there are one or more legal defenses
available to such Indemnified Person that are different from or additional to those available to Chinos SPV, (b) Chinos SPV has agreed in writing, or (c) Chinos SPV shall have failed to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such
Indemnified Person in a timely manner, then such Indemnified Person may employ separate counsel reasonably satisfactory to Chinos SPV to represent or defend it in any such claim, action, proceeding or investigation and Chinos SPV will pay the
reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of such counsel; provided, however, that Chinos SPV will not be required to pay the fees and disbursements of more than one separate counsel for all Indemnified Persons in any jurisdiction in any
single claim, action, proceeding or investigation, except to the extent that local counsel, in addition to its regular counsel, is required in order to effectively defend against such action or proceeding. In any Claim the defense of which Chinos
SPV assumes, the Indemnified Person will have the right to participate in such litigation and to retain its own counsel at such Indemnified Person’s sole expense (subject to the immediately preceding sentence); provided that Chinos SPV will
have the right to maintain control of the defense.

Manager or the Member, or any affiliate, manager, officer, equityholder, employee, representative or agent of the Member (each a “Covered Person”), shall be liable to the Company or any other person for any act or omission performed
or omitted by such Covered Person in good faith on behalf of the Company and in a manner reasonably believed to be within the scope of the authority conferred on such Covered Person by the Company; provided, that, the foregoing shall
not apply with respect to any act or omission that constitutes fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence. This Agreement is not intended to, and does not, create or impose any fiduciary duty on the Member. Furthermore, the Company hereby waives
any and all fiduciary duties that, absent such waiver, may be implied by applicable law upon the Member, and in doing so, acknowledges and agrees that the duties and obligation of the Member to the Company are only as expressly set forth in this
Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) the foregoing shall not eliminate or limit the obligation of the Manager to act in compliance with the terms of this Agreement, the Contribution Agreement and
the Member LLCA, as applicable, and (ii) the foregoing shall not be deemed to eliminate fiduciary duties of the Manager to the Company or the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing of the Manager. 

8.2 Indemnification of Covered Persons. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Covered Person from and against any and all
losses, claims, demands, liabilities, expenses, judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (an “Action”),
in which the Covered Person may be involved, or threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, by reason of any act or omission performed by such Covered Person in good faith on behalf of the Company and in a manner reasonably believed to be
within the scope of the authority conferred on such Covered Person by the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, any indemnity under this ARTICLE VIII shall be provided out of and to the extent of the Company’s assets only, and the Member
shall not have any liability on account thereof. 
 ARTICLE IX 

Miscellaneous 
 9.1 Tax
Treatment. The Company shall be a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes (as well as for any analogous state or local tax purposes), and the Manager and the Company shall timely make any and all necessary elections and filings
for the Company to be treated as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes (as well as for any analogous state or local tax purposes). The Company and its Member shall be prohibited from taking any action that could cause the Company
(or any successor) to be treated as other than disregarded as separate from the Member for United States federal income tax purposes. 

  
 5 

 9.2 No Other Business. 

(a) The Company shall hold no assets other than the Series B Units and Series D Units, cash and any other assets incidental thereto.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall avoid taking any action that could cause the Company to be engaged in a trade or business in the United States within the meaning of Section 864 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”) and the Regulations promulgated thereunder. In addition, the Company will not, directly or indirectly, purchase, acquire or otherwise be treated as the owner of (i) an equity interest in a
“partnership,” grantor trust or entity that is disregarded as separate from its owner, in each case for U.S. federal, state or local income tax purposes, (ii) a residual interest in a “REMIC” (as such term is defined in the

(unconnected with the Company) of every kind and description, independently or with others. The Company shall not have any rights in or to such independent ventures or the income or profits therefrom by virtue of this Agreement. 

9.3 Amendments. Any amendment, modification, or alteration of or supplement to this Agreement shall be approved in writing by the Member
Board; provided, that, no such amendment, modification, alteration or supplement shall be effective without the prior written consent of the Sponsor Managers and the Independent Manager in compliance with Section 6.4 of the Member
LLCA. 
 9.4 Severability. Each provision of this Agreement shall be considered separable and if for any reason any provision or
provisions herein are determined to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal under any existing or future law, such invalidity, unenforceability or illegality shall not impair the operation of or affect those portions of this Agreement which are valid,
enforceable and legal unless such invalid or unenforceable provision or clause shall be so significant as to materially affect the expectations of the Member regarding this Agreement. Otherwise, any invalid or unenforceable provision shall be
replaced by the Member Board with a valid provision which most closely approximates the intent and economic effect of the invalid or unenforceable provision. 

9.5 If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced by any law or public policy, all other
terms or provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the matters contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to the Member. Upon such
determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, the Member shall modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the provisions hereto as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in
order that the matters contemplated hereby are governed as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible. 

  
 6 

 9.6 Headings. The division of this Agreement into Sections and other subdivisions and
the insertion of headings are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect or be utilized in construing or interpreting this Agreement. All references in this Agreement to any “Section” are to the corresponding Section of this
Agreement unless otherwise specified. 
 9.7 Governing Law; Dispute Resolution. This Agreement, all questions concerning the
construction, interpretation and validity of this Agreement, the rights and obligations of the parties hereto, all claims or causes of action (whether in contract, tort or statute) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement,
and the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter
this Agreement) shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, including its statutes of limitations, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether in
Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than Delaware and without regard to any borrowing statute that would result in the application of the statute of limitations of any other
jurisdiction. In furtherance of the foregoing, the laws of the State of Delaware will control even if under such jurisdiction’s choice of law or conflict of law analysis, the substantive law of some other jurisdiction would ordinarily or
necessarily apply. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION, OR CAUSE OF ACTION (I) ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, OR (II) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR
RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE MATTERS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY, OR OTHERWISE. EACH PARTY
HERETO HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION, OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT THE PARTIES MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OF A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN
EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. The provisions of Section 12.3 of the Member LLCA shall be applied, mutatis mutandis, to resolve any dispute or controversy (whether in contract, tort or
statute) arising out of, relating to, or in connection with this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this agreement or the matters contemplated hereby. 

9.8 Specific Performance. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that a breach of this Agreement would cause irreparable damage to the
other parties hereto and that the other parties hereto will not have an adequate remedy at law. Therefore, the obligations of the parties hereto under this Agreement shall be enforceable by a decree of specific performance issued by any court of
competent jurisdiction, and appropriate injunctive relief may be applied for and granted in connection therewith. Such remedies shall, however, be cumulative and not exclusive and shall be in addition to any other remedies which any party hereto may
have under this Agreement or otherwise. 

  
 7 

 9.9 Limited Liability Company. The Member intends to form a limited liability company
and does not intend to form a partnership under the laws of the State of Delaware or any other laws. 
 9.10 Entire Agreement. This
Agreement and the Member LLCA constitute the entire agreement of the Member with respect to the subject matter hereof. 
 9.11 Third Party
Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement shall create or be deemed to create any third-party beneficiary rights in any person; provided, that, the Sponsor Members and the IPCo Noteholders (each, as defined in the Member LLCA) are
express third-party beneficiaries of the terms hereof and shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof pursuant to Section 9.8 to the fullest extent necessary or beneficial to give full effect to such
holders’ rights set forth herein and in the Member LLCA.

Amended Series A Certificate of Designation 

 AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATION 

OF 
 SERIES A PREFERRED
STOCK 
 OF 
 CHINOS
HOLDINGS, INC. 
 Chinos Holdings, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (the
“Corporation”), in accordance with the provisions of Section 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, does hereby certify as follows: 

On June 12, 2017, the Board of Directors of the Corporation, in accordance with the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation
and applicable law, approved and adopted a resolution creating a series of 190,000 shares, no par value per share, of the Corporation designated as “Series A Preferred Stock.” 

On July 12, 2017, the Corporation filed the Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation with the Delaware Secretary of
State, which included as an exhibit the Certificate of Designation of Series A Preferred Stock of the Corporation. The Certificate of Designation of Series A Preferred Stock of the Corporation set forth the designations, powers, preferences and
rights of the Series A Preferred Stock; 
 On [______], 2020, the Board of Directors approved and adopted the following resolution (this
“Certificate of Designation” or this “Certificate”) for purposes of amending certain provisions of the original Certificate of Designation for the Series A Preferred Stock; and 

On [______], 2020, the holders of more than 66% of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding (the “Requisite Series A
Holders”), voting separately as a class, approved this Certificate of Designation. 
 NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that, pursuant
to the authority expressly vested in the Board of Directors and in accordance with the provisions of the Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), the original
Certificate of Designation for the Series A Preferred Stock shall, subject to approval of the Requisite Series A Holders, be amended and restated in its entirety, and the designation, powers, preferences and other special rights of the shares of
such series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof are as follows: 
 Section 1. Designation; Rank. 

1.1. Designation. There is hereby created out of the authorized and unissued shares of preferred stock, no par value per share, of the
Corporation a series of preferred stock designated as “Series A Preferred Stock”. The number of shares constituting such series shall be 190,000 and such shares are referred to herein as the “Series A Preferred
Stock.” 
 1.2. Rank. The Series A Preferred Stock shall, with respect to dividend distributions and distributions upon
liquidation, winding-up and dissolution of the Corporation, rank (i) senior (to the extent set forth herein) to all Junior Securities, (ii) on a parity with all Parity Securities, and
(iii) junior to all Senior Securities. 

  
 2 

 1.3. Certificates. The Holders shall be entitled to receive physical delivery of a
Certificate for their Shares, which shall be issued in fully registered form and shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. Record ownership of the Shares represented by such Certificates shall be shown on, and the
transfer of that ownership shall be effected only through, records maintained by the Corporation. 
 Section 2. Dividends. 

2.1. General Obligation. To the extent not prohibited under the DGCL, the Corporation shall pay preferential dividends to the Holders
(the “Preferred Dividends”), as provided in this Section 2. The Preferred Dividends shall accrue at the Preferred Dividend Rate and shall be paid to the Holders in cash if and when declared. The Preferred
Dividends shall accrue on each share of the Series A Preferred Stock (a “Share”) on a daily basis and compound on a semi-annual basis for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Share to and including the first to
occur of (i) the date on which the Liquidation Value of such Share (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, whether or not declared) is paid to the Holder thereof in connection with the liquidation of the Corporation, (ii) the date
on which such Share is redeemed pursuant to Section 4 or (iii) the date on which such Share is otherwise acquired by the Corporation. The Preferred Dividends shall accrue regardless of whether or not (a) such
dividends have been declared, (b) there are profits or surplus (as defined in the DGCL) available for payment or (c) the Corporation is prohibited from paying dividends under applicable law. So long as any Shares remain outstanding, the
Corporation shall not, nor shall it permit any Subsidiary to, redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire for value any Junior Securities, nor shall the Corporation nor any of its Subsidiaries directly or indirectly pay or declare any dividend, to or make
any distribution upon, any Junior Securities. The date on which the Corporation initially issues any Share shall be deemed to be its “date of issuance” regardless of the number of times transfer of such Share is made on the stock records
maintained by or for the Corporation and regardless of the number of Certificates that may be issued to evidence such Share. 
 2.2.
Dividend Payment Dates. The Preferred Dividends shall be payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, or, in the event such date falls on a day other than a Business Day, on the first Business Day
preceding such date (the “Dividend Payment Dates”). To the extent not paid on any Dividend Payment Date, the Preferred Dividends which have accrued on each Share outstanding during the
six-month period (or other period in the case of the initial Dividend Payment Date) ending upon each such Dividend Payment Date shall be accumulated and shall remain accumulated dividends with respect to such
Share until paid to the Holder thereof. 
 2.3. Distribution of Partial Dividends. Except as otherwise provided herein, if at any
time the Corporation pays less than the total amount of Preferred Dividends then accrued with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock, such payment shall be distributed pro rata among the Holders thereof based upon the aggregate accrued but unpaid
dividends on the Shares held by each such Holder. 

  
 3 

 Section 3. Liquidation. 

3.1. Normal Liquidation. Upon any liquidation (including a Deemed Liquidation), dissolution or winding up of the Corporation (whether
voluntary or involuntary), each Holder shall be entitled to be paid, pari passu with any distribution or payment made upon Parity Securities and before any distribution or payment is made upon any Junior Securities, an amount in cash, per
Share equal to the aggregate Liquidation Value of all Shares held by such Holder (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, whether or not declared). If upon any such liquidation (including a Deemed Liquidation), dissolution or winding up of
the Corporation the assets of the Corporation to be distributed among the Holders are insufficient to permit payment to such Holders of the aggregate amount which they are entitled to be paid under this Section 3, then all
assets available to be distributed to the Corporation’s stockholders shall be distributed pro rata among such Holders based upon the aggregate Liquidation Value (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends, whether or not declared) of the
Series A Preferred Stock held by each Holder. Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the payment date stated therein, the Corporation shall deliver written notice of any such liquidation (including a Deemed Liquidation), dissolution or winding
up to each record Holder, setting forth in reasonable detail the amount of proceeds to be paid with respect to each Share in connection with such liquidation, dissolution or winding up. 

3.2. Any (i) consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into another entity or entities (whether or not the Corporation is the
surviving entity (the Corporation, such surviving entity or the acquirer(s) of assets contemplated by clause (ii), as applicable, the “Surviving Entity”)), (ii) sale or transfer by the Corporation of all or substantially all of its
assets (determined for the Corporation together with its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis), or (iii) sale, transfer or issuance or series of sales, transfers and/or issuances of shares of the Corporation’s capital stock by the
Corporation or the holders thereof, in any case of (i), (ii) or (iii), as a result of which the holders of the Corporation’s outstanding capital stock possessing the voting power (under ordinary circumstances) to elect a majority of the
Corporation’s Board of Directors immediately prior to such sale or issuance cease to own the Surviving Entity’s outstanding capital stock possessing the voting power (under ordinary circumstances) to elect a majority of the Surviving
Entity’s Board of Directors shall be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Corporation (a “Deemed Liquidation”) for purposes of this Section 3. 

Section 4. Redemption. 

4.1. Optional Redemption. The Corporation or any Sponsor or Sponsors may at any time following the effective date of this Certificate
of Designation, redeem or purchase, as applicable, without penalty, not less than all of the Shares then outstanding and pay to each Holder thereof an amount in cash in immediately available funds equal to the Liquidation Value of such Holder’s
Shares (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, whether or not declared) as of the Redemption Date (the “Redemption”). 

4.2. Redemption Payments. For each Share which is to be redeemed or purchased hereunder, the Corporation or the applicable Sponsor or
Sponsors, as the case may be, shall be obligated, on the applicable Redemption Date, to pay to the relevant Holder (upon surrender by such Holder of the Certificate at (i) the Corporation’s principal office, in the case of Redemption by
the Corporation, or (ii) the address nominated by the Sponsor or Sponsors acquiring such Shares, in the case of Redemption by any Sponsor or Sponsors) an amount in cash in immediately available funds equal to the Liquidation Value of such
Holder’s Shares (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, whether or not declared), in connection with the Redemption. 

  
 4 

 4.3. Notice of Redemption. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Corporation or
Sponsor, as the case may be, shall give written notice of a Redemption of Shares to each Holder at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which such Redemption is to be made. 

Section 5. Voting. 

5.1. Voting Generally. Except as set forth herein or to the extent required by the DGCL, the Holders shall not have any voting rights.
In any case in which the Holders shall be entitled to vote, each Holder shall be entitled to one vote for each Share held on the record date for determining the stockholders of the Corporation eligible to vote thereon. 

5.2. Election of Director. For so long as there remain outstanding no less than twenty percent (20%) of the Shares that were issued on
the Initial Issue Date, the Holders shall have the right to elect one director of the Corporation (the “Preferred Director”). The initial Preferred Director, who will serve as the Preferred Director prior to the first annual meeting
of stockholders (or special meeting held in place thereof), shall be elected following the Initial Issuance Date by the Holders of at least a majority of the issued and outstanding Shares acting by written consent without a meeting. Thereafter, the
Preferred Director shall be elected by plurality vote of the Shares, voting separately as a single class with one vote per Share, at each annual meeting of stockholders or special meeting held in place thereof. The Corporation shall take all
necessary action under its organizational documents, including its bylaws, to effectuate such rights hereunder. The Preferred Director shall have all voting and other rights (including for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum) as the
other individuals serving on the Board of Directors and shall serve on the Board of Directors. Once less than twenty percent (20%) of the Shares that were issued on the Initial Issue Date remain outstanding, (i) the voting rights of the Holders
shall, without further action, terminate, (ii) the term of office of the Preferred Director shall, without further action, terminate unless otherwise required by law, and (iii) the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors
shall be reduced by one unless otherwise required by law. The Preferred Director may be removed by, and shall not be removed except by, the vote of the Holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding Shares, voting separately as a single class,
at a meeting of the Corporation’s stockholders, or of the Holders called for such purpose. So long as not less than twenty percent (20%) of the Shares that were issued on the Initial Issue Date remain outstanding, any vacancy in the office of
the Preferred Director may be filled, including in the case of the removal of such Preferred Director, by the vote of the Holders, voting separately as a single class. The Preferred Director so elected shall continue to serve as such director for a
term of one year; except that upon any termination of the right of all such Holders to vote as a class to elect the Preferred Director, the term of office of such director shall terminate. If, within ten (10) days of the election of a Preferred
Director who has not previously served as a director of the Corporation, Persons representing a majority of the shares of Common Stock then outstanding certify in writing that, in their good faith determination, acting reasonably, the Preferred
Director is not suitable to serve as the Preferred Director, the Holders shall promptly remove and replace the Preferred Director; provided, however, that, if the Holders act in good faith in electing such replacement Preferred
Director, such certification may not be delivered on more than three (3) occasions. 

  
 5 

 5.3. Consent Rights. So long as any Shares remain outstanding, without the prior
written consent of the Holders of at least a majority of the issued and outstanding Shares, voting separately as a single class with one vote per Share, in person or by proxy, either in writing without a meeting or at an annual or a special meeting
of such Holders, and any other applicable stockholder approval requirements required by law: 
 (i) The Corporation shall not
create, authorize the creation of, issue, sell, or obligate itself to issue or sell, any Senior Securities or Parity Securities, other than issuances of Series B Preferred Stock under the terms of the Management Incentive Plan of the Corporation.

 (ii) The Corporation shall not permit Chinos Intermediate, Inc. (“IntermediateCo”) to create, authorize
the creation of, issue, sell, or obligate itself to issue or sell, any class or series of IntermediateCo capital stock that will rank senior to, or on a parity with, the Series A Preferred Stock of IntermediateCo (“IntermediateCo Preferred
Stock”) as to dividend distributions and distributions upon liquidation, winding-up and dissolution of IntermediateCo.  

(iii) The Corporation shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries (other than Chinos Intermediate Holdings A, Inc.
(“Chinos A”), IntermediateCo, or J. Crew Brand Intermediate, LLC and its Subsidiaries) to take any action that any such Person would be prohibited from taking in its capacity as Holdings, the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary (as
such terms are defined in the Term Loan Agreement), as applicable, pursuant to Article VII of the Term Loan Agreement as in effect as of the Initial Issue Date; provided that, for purposes of this Section 5.3(iii), such
prohibitions shall remain in effect without regard to whether or not any Lender shall have any Commitment or any Loan or other Obligation (as such terms are defined in the Term Loan Agreement) that remains unpaid or unsatisfied and whether or not
the Term Loan Agreement is amended, modified or terminated subsequent to the Initial Issue Date. 
 (iv) None of the
Corporation, Chinos A or IntermediateCo shall (a) incur, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable for any Indebtedness or other obligations other than, solely in the case of Chinos A, the PIK Toggle Notes and New Notes outstanding as of the
Initial Issue Date, (b) permit or allow the creation or imposition of, or suffer to exist, any lien, encumbrance, mortgage, pledge, security interest or other similar interest on any of their assets or properties, (c) sell or
otherwise dispose of any equity interests of any of its direct Subsidiaries, (d) consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer, lease or license all or substantially all its assets to, any Person, (e) enter into
any arrangement, directly or indirectly, with any Person whereby it shall sell or transfer any property, real or personal, used or useful in its business, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, and thereafter rent or lease such property or other
property that it intends to use for substantially the same purpose or purposes as the property being sold or transferred, in each case, whether or not treated as a “sale-leaseback” under GAAP, (f) engage in any transaction with
any of its affiliates or any direct or indirect holder of ten percent (10%) or more of any class of its capital stock unless 

  
 6 

 
such transaction is otherwise permitted hereunder or (g) amend, modify, grant any waiver or release under or terminate in any manner, its applicable articles or certificate of incorporation,
bylaws, limited liability company operating agreement, partnership agreement or other organizational documents, except, with respect to clauses (e) through (g), to the extent such action would not reasonably be expected to be adverse to
the Holders in any material respect. 
 5.4. Rights Relating to the IntermediateCo Preferred Shares. For so long as any Shares
remain outstanding: 
 (i) The Corporation will not, without the prior written consent of the Holders of at least sixty-six percent (66%) of the issued and outstanding Shares, (a) directly or indirectly transfer, assign, sell or otherwise dispose of the shares of IntermediateCo Preferred Stock that are held by the
Corporation (the “IntermediateCo Preferred Shares”), (b) permit or allow the creation or imposition of, or suffer to exist, any lien, encumbrance, mortgage, pledge, security interest or other similar interest on, the IntermediateCo
Preferred Shares or (c) waive any of its or its subsidiaries’ rights as a holder of IntermediateCo Preferred Shares under, or consent to any amendment or modification of, the Certificate of Designation relating to the IntermediateCo
Preferred Shares, in each case for so long as the Corporation directly or indirectly holds any IntermediateCo Preferred Shares. 

(ii) Upon the redemption of the IntermediateCo Preferred Shares, or any actual liquidation, deemed liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of IntermediateCo that results in a payment to the holders of the IntermediateCo Preferred Shares, the Corporation shall effect a Redemption of the Shares in accordance with Section 4. 

Section 6. Conversion. The Shares shall not be convertible into any other security and do not otherwise have any conversion
rights. 
 Section 7. Registration of Transfer. The Corporation shall keep at its principal office a register for the
registration of Series A Preferred Stock. Upon the surrender of any Certificate at such place, the Corporation shall, at the request of the record Holder of such Certificate, execute and deliver (at the Corporation’s expense) a new Certificate
in exchange therefor representing in the aggregate the number of Shares represented by the surrendered Certificate. Each such new Certificate shall be registered in such name and shall represent such number of Shares as is requested by the Holder of
the surrendered Certificate and shall be substantially identical in form to the surrendered Certificate. The Shares represented by such new Certificate shall be identical to the Shares represented by the surrendered Certificate, including with
respect to the Liquidation Value of such Shares and any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon (whether or not declared), and Preferred Dividends shall accrue on the Shares represented by such new Certificate from the date on which Preferred Dividends
have been fully paid on the Shares represented by the surrendered Certificate. The Corporation may place such legend on any Certificate and/or provide such notices as may be required by applicable law or the Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate
of Incorporation. 

  
 7 

 Section 8. Replacement. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Corporation (an affidavit of the registered Holder shall be satisfactory) of the ownership and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Certificate evidencing Shares, and in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of
indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation, or, in the case of any such mutilation upon surrender of such Certificate, the Corporation shall (at its expense) execute and deliver in lieu of such Certificate a new Certificate of like kind
representing the number of Shares of such class represented by such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Certificate and dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Certificate. The Shares represented by such new Certificate shall be
identical to the Shares represented by such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Certificate, including with respect to the Liquidation Value of such Shares and any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon (whether or not declared), and Preferred
Dividends shall accrue on the Shares represented by such new Certificate from the date to which Preferred Dividends have been fully paid on the Shares represented by such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Certificate.

Amended Series B Certificate of Designation 

 AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATION 

OF 
 SERIES B PREFERRED
STOCK 
 OF 
 CHINOS
HOLDINGS, INC. 
 Chinos Holdings, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (the
“Corporation”), in accordance with the provisions of Section 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, does hereby certify as follows: 

On June 12, 2017, the Board of Directors of the Corporation, in accordance with the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation
and applicable law, approved and adopted a resolution creating a series of 130,000 shares, no par value per share, of the Corporation designated as “Series B Preferred Stock”; 

On July 12, 2017, the Corporation filed the Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation with the Delaware Secretary of
State, which included as an exhibit the Certificate of Designation of Series B Preferred Stock of the Corporation. The Certificate of Designation of Series B Preferred Stock of the Corporation set forth the designations, powers, preferences and
rights of the Series B Preferred Stock; 
 On [______], 2020, the Board of Directors approved and adopted the following resolution (this
“Certificate of Designation” or this “Certificate”) for purposes of amending certain provisions of the original Certificate of Designation for the Series B Preferred Stock; and 

On [______], 2020, the holders of more than 66% of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding (the “Requisite Series B
Holders”), voting separately as a class, approved this Certificate of Designation. 
 NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that, pursuant
to the authority expressly vested in the Board of Directors and in accordance with the provisions of the Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), the original
Certificate of Designation for the Series B Preferred Stock shall, subject to approval of the Requisite Series B Holders, be amended and restated in its entirety, and the designation, powers, preferences and other special rights of the shares of
such series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof are as follows: 
 Section 1. Designation; Rank. 

1.1. Designation. There is hereby created out of the authorized and unissued shares of preferred stock, no par value per share, of the
Corporation a series of preferred stock designated as “Series B Preferred Stock”. The number of shares constituting such series shall be 130,000 and such shares are referred to herein as the “Series B Preferred
Stock.” 
 1.2. Rank. The Series B Preferred Stock shall, with respect to dividend distributions and distributions upon
liquidation, winding-up and dissolution of the Corporation, rank (i) senior (to the extent set forth herein) to all Junior Securities, (ii) on a parity with all Parity Securities, and
(iii) junior to all Senior Securities. 

  
 1 

 1.3. Certificates. The Holders shall be entitled to receive physical delivery of a
Certificate for their Shares, which shall be issued in fully registered form and shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. Record ownership of the Shares represented by such Certificates shall be shown on, and the
transfer of that ownership shall be effected only through, records maintained by the Corporation. 
 Section 2. Dividends. 

2.1. General Obligation. The Corporation shall pay preferential dividends to the Holders (the “Preferred Dividends”), as
provided in this Section 2. The Preferred Dividends shall be paid if and when declared by the Board of Directors, shall accrue at the Preferred Dividend Rate and shall be paid to the Holders by delivery of shares of Series B Preferred Stock
having an aggregate Liquidation Value equal to the amount of such dividend. The Preferred Dividends shall accrue on each share of the Series B Preferred Stock (a “Share”) on a daily basis and compound on a semi-annual basis for the
period from and including the date of issuance of such Share to and including the first to occur of (i) the date on which the Liquidation Value of such Share (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, whether or not declared) is paid to
the Holder thereof in connection with the liquidation of the Corporation, (ii) the date on which such Share is redeemed pursuant to Section 4 or (iii) the date on which such Share is otherwise acquired by the Corporation. The
Preferred Dividends shall accrue regardless of whether or not (a) such dividends have been declared, (b) there are profits or surplus (as defined in the DGCL) available for payment or (c) the Corporation is prohibited from paying
dividends under applicable law. So long as any Shares remain outstanding, the Corporation shall not, nor shall it permit any Subsidiary to, redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire for value any Junior Securities, nor shall the Corporation nor any of
its Subsidiaries directly or indirectly pay or declare any dividend, to or make any distribution upon, any Junior Securities. The date on which the Corporation initially issues any Share shall be deemed to be its “date of issuance”
regardless of the number of times transfer of such Share is made on the stock records maintained by or for the Corporation and regardless of the number of Certificates that may be issued to evidence such Share. 

2.2. Dividend Payment Dates. The Preferred Dividends shall be payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15
of each year, or, in the event such date falls on a day other than a Business Day, on the first Business Day preceding such date (the “Dividend Payment Dates”). To the extent not paid on any Dividend Payment Date, the Preferred
Dividends which have accrued on each Share outstanding during the six-month period (or other period in the case of the initial Dividend Payment Date) ending upon each such Dividend Payment Date shall be
accumulated and shall remain accumulated dividends with respect to such Share until paid to the Holder thereof. 
 2.3. Distribution of
Partial Dividends. Except as otherwise provided herein, if at any time the Corporation pays less than the total amount of Preferred Dividends then accrued with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock, such payment shall be distributed pro rata
among the Holders thereof based upon the aggregate accrued but unpaid dividends on the Shares held by each such Holder. 

  
 2 

 Section 3. Liquidation. 

3.1. Normal Liquidation. Upon any liquidation (including a Deemed Liquidation (as defined below)), dissolution or winding up of the
Corporation (whether voluntary or involuntary), each Holder shall be entitled to be paid, pari passu with any distribution or payment made upon Parity Securities and before any distribution or payment is made upon any Junior Securities, an
amount in cash, per Share equal to the aggregate Liquidation Value of all Shares held by such Holder (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, whether or not declared). If upon any such liquidation (including a Deemed Liquidation), dissolution
or winding up of the Corporation the assets of the Corporation to be distributed among the Holders are insufficient to permit payment to such Holders of the aggregate amount which they are entitled to be paid under this
Section 3, then all assets available to be distributed to the Corporation’s stockholders shall be distributed pro rata among such Holders based upon the aggregate Liquidation Value (plus all accrued and unpaid
dividends, whether or not declared) of the Series B Preferred Stock held by each Holder. If upon any such liquidation (including a Deemed Liquidation), dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the assets of the Corporation to be distributed
amongst the Holders exceed the aggregate Liquidation Value of all Shares held by the Holders (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, whether or not declared), then a portion equal to 2.67% of such excess shall be distributed to the Holders,
as a single and separate class, which portion shall be shared ratably among the Holders based on the number of Shares held by such Holders. Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the payment date stated therein, the Corporation shall deliver
written notice of any such liquidation (including a Deemed Liquidation), dissolution or winding up to each record Holder, setting forth in reasonable detail the amount of proceeds to be paid with respect to each Share in connection with such
liquidation, dissolution or winding up. 
 3.2. Any (i) consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into another entity or
entities (whether or not the Corporation is the surviving entity (the Corporation, such surviving entity or the acquirer(s) of assets contemplated by clause (ii), as applicable, the “Surviving Entity”)), (ii) sale or transfer by the
Corporation of all or substantially all of its assets (determined for the Corporation together with its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis), or (iii) sale, transfer or issuance or series of sales, transfers and/or issuances of shares of the
Corporation’s capital stock by the Corporation or the holders thereof, in any case of (i), (ii) or (iii), as a result of which the holders of the Corporation’s outstanding capital stock possessing the voting power (under ordinary
circumstances) to elect a majority of the Corporation’s Board of Directors immediately prior to such sale or issuance cease to own the Surviving Entity’s outstanding capital stock possessing the voting power (under ordinary circumstances)
to elect a majority of the Surviving Entity’s Board of Directors shall be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Corporation (a “Deemed Liquidation”) for purposes of this
Section 3. 
 Section 4. Redemption. 

4.1. Optional Redemption. The Corporation or any Sponsor or Sponsors may at any time following the effective date of this Certificate
of Designation, redeem or purchase, as applicable, without penalty, not less than all of the Shares then outstanding and pay to each Holder thereof an amount in cash in immediately available funds equal to the Liquidation Value of such Holder’s
Shares (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, whether or not declared) as of the Redemption Date (the “Redemption”). 

  
 3 

 4.2. Redemption Payments. For each Share which is to be redeemed or purchased
hereunder, the Corporation or the applicable Sponsor or Sponsors, as the case may be, shall be obligated, on the applicable Redemption Date, to pay to the relevant Holder (upon surrender by such Holder of the Certificate at (i) the
Corporation’s principal office, in the case of Redemption by the Corporation, or (ii) the address nominated by the Sponsor or Sponsors acquiring such Shares, in the case of Redemption by any Sponsor or Sponsors) an amount in cash in
immediately available funds equal to the Liquidation Value of such Holder’s Shares (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, whether or not declared), in connection with the Redemption. 

4.3. Notice of Redemption. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Corporation or Sponsor, as the case may be, shall give written
notice of a Redemption of Shares to each Holder at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which such Redemption is to be made.  

Section 5. Voting. 

5.1. Voting Generally. Except as set forth herein or to the extent required by the DGCL, the Holders shall not have any voting rights.
In any case in which the Holders shall be entitled to vote, each Holder shall be entitled to one vote for each Share held on the record date for determining the stockholders of the Corporation eligible to vote thereon. 

5.2. Consent Rights. So long as any Shares remain outstanding, without the prior written consent of the Holders of at least a majority
of the issued and outstanding Shares, voting separately as a single class with one vote per Share, in person or by proxy, either in writing without a meeting or at an annual or a special meeting of such Holders, and any other applicable stockholder
approval requirements required by law: 
 (i) The Corporation shall not create, authorize the creation of, issue, sell, or
obligate itself to issue or sell, any Senior Securities or Parity Securities, other than issuances of Series A Preferred Stock under the terms of the Management Incentive Plan of the Corporation. 

(ii) The Corporation shall not permit Chinos Intermediate, Inc. (“IntermediateCo”) to create, authorize the
creation of, issue, sell, or obligate itself to issue or sell, any class or series of IntermediateCo capital stock that will rank senior to, or on a parity with, the Series A Preferred Stock of IntermediateCo (“IntermediateCo Preferred
Stock”) as to dividend distributions and distributions upon liquidation, winding-up and dissolution of IntermediateCo.  

(iii) The Corporation shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries (other than Chinos Intermediate Holdings A, Inc.,
IntermediateCo, or J. Crew Brand Intermediate, LLC and its Subsidiaries) to take any action that any such Person would be prohibited from taking in its capacity as Holdings, the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary (as such terms are defined in the
Term Loan Agreement), as applicable, pursuant to Article VII of the Term Loan Agreement as 

  
 4 

 
in effect as of the Initial Issue Date; provided that, for purposes of this Section 5.2(iii), such prohibitions shall remain in effect without regard to whether
or not any Lender shall have any Commitment or any Loan or other Obligation (as such terms are defined in the Term Loan Agreement) that remains unpaid or unsatisfied and whether or not the Term Loan Agreement is amended, modified or terminated
subsequent to the Initial Issue Date. 
 5.3. Rights Relating to the IntermediateCo Preferred Shares. For so long as any Shares
remain outstanding: 
 (i) The Corporation will not, without the prior written consent of the Holders of at least sixty-six percent (66%) of the issued and outstanding Shares, (a) directly or indirectly transfer, assign, sell or otherwise dispose of the shares of IntermediateCo Preferred Stock that are held by the
Corporation (the “IntermediateCo Preferred Shares”), (b) permit or allow the creation or imposition of, or suffer to exist, any lien, encumbrance, mortgage, pledge, security interest or other similar interest on, the IntermediateCo
Preferred Shares or (c) waive any of its or its subsidiaries’ rights as a holder of IntermediateCo Preferred Shares under, or consent to any amendment or modification of, the Certificate of Designation relating to the IntermediateCo
Preferred Shares, in each case for so long as the Corporation directly or indirectly holds any IntermediateCo Preferred Shares. 

(ii) Upon the redemption of the IntermediateCo Preferred Shares, or any actual liquidation, deemed liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of IntermediateCo that results in a payment to the holders of the IntermediateCo Preferred Shares, the Corporation shall effect a Redemption of the Shares in accordance with Section 4. 

Section 6. Conversion. The Shares shall not be convertible into any other security and do not otherwise have any conversion
rights. 
 Section 7. Registration of Transfer. The Corporation shall keep at its principal office a register for the
registration of Series B Preferred Stock. Upon the surrender of any Certificate at such place, the Corporation shall, at the request of the record Holder of such Certificate, execute and deliver (at the Corporation’s expense) a new Certificate
in exchange therefor representing in the aggregate the number of Shares represented by the surrendered Certificate. Each such new Certificate shall be registered in such name and shall represent such number of Shares as is requested by the Holder of
the surrendered Certificate and shall be substantially identical in form to the surrendered Certificate. The Shares represented by such new Certificate shall be identical to the Shares represented by the surrendered Certificate, including with
respect to the Liquidation Value of such Shares and any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon (whether or not declared), and Preferred Dividends shall accrue on the Shares represented by such new Certificate from the date on which Preferred Dividends
have been fully paid on the Shares represented by the surrendered Certificate. The Corporation may place such legend on any Certificate and/or provide such notices as may be required by applicable law or the Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate
of Incorporation. 

  
 5 

 Section 8. Replacement. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Corporation (an affidavit of the registered Holder shall be satisfactory) of the ownership and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Certificate evidencing Shares, and in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of
indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation, or, in the case of any such mutilation upon surrender of such Certificate, the Corporation shall (at its expense) execute and deliver in lieu of such Certificate a new Certificate of like kind
representing the number of Shares of such class represented by such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Certificate and dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Certificate. The Shares represented by such new Certificate shall be
identical to the Shares represented by such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Certificate, including with respect to the Liquidation Value of such Shares and any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon (whether or not declared), and Preferred
Dividends shall accrue on the Shares represented by such new Certificate from the date to which Preferred Dividends have been fully paid on the Shares represented by such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Certificate.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS 

SECTION 2.01. Demand Registration. 

(a) Demand by Eligible Holders. 

(i) If, at any time there is no currently effective Shelf Registration Statement on file with the SEC then, except as provided
in Section 2.02(a), (x) any Holder holding, directly or indirectly, together with their respective Affiliates in the aggregate, not less than [●] percent ([●]%) of the Registrable Securities then outstanding (each an
“Eligible Holder” and together the “Eligible Holders”) may make a written request to the Issuer for Registration of all or part of the Registrable Securities held by such Holder on
Form S-1 or any similar long-form Registration Statement (a “Long Form Registration Statement”), or (y) any Eligible Holder may make a written request to the Issuer for Registration
of all or part of the Registrable Securities held by such Eligible Holder on Form S-3 or any similar short-form Registration Statement (a “Short-Form Registration Statement”) if the
Issuer is then qualified to use such short form. Any such requested Registration shall hereinafter be referred to as a “Demand Registration” and any Eligible Holder requesting such Demand Registration shall hereinafter be referred
to as a “Demanding Holder.” Each request for a Demand Registration shall specify the kind and aggregate amount of Registrable Securities to be Registered and the intended methods of disposition thereof. 

(ii) Within (i) seventy-five (75) days in the case of a request for a Long-Form Registration or (ii) twenty
(20) days in the case of a request for a Short-Form Registration, the Issuer shall file a Registration Statement relating to such Demand Registration (a “Demand Registration Statement”), and shall use its reasonable best
efforts to cause such Demand Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act. 

  
 5 

 (b) Limitation on Demand Registrations. The aggregate number of Demand Registrations
using a Long-Form Registration Statement that may be requested by the Eligible Holders shall not exceed three (3), provided, that the Company shall have no obligations under this Agreement with respect to any request for a Demand Registration
using a Long-Form Registration Statement if a Long-Form Registration Statement relating to a Demand Request has been declared effective by the SEC within the prior ninety (90) days or, in the case of any Short-Form Registration Statements filed
within the prior ninety (90) days, such shorter period specified in any applicable lock-up agreement entered into with underwriters. If the Issuer has not been subject to the requirements of
Section 12 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or has not filed all the material required to be filed pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act in the twelve calendar months following the IPO and is therefore not eligible to use
Form S-3, the Eligible Holders may request one (1) additional Long-Form Registration Statement, subject to the timing restrictions set forth in this clause (b). The Eligible Holders may request an
unlimited number of Demand Registrations using a Short-Form Registration Statement, provided, that the Company shall have no obligations under this Agreement with respect to any request for a Demand Registration using a Short-Form
Registration Statement if a Short-Form Registration Statement relating to a Demand Request relating to an Underwritten Offering (other than a Block Trade) has been declared effective by the SEC within the prior ninety (90) days. The Demanding
Holders will be entitled to a demand a Long Form Registration Statement only if the total offering price of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering (including piggyback shares and before deduction of underwriting discounts) is
reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $50 million. 
 (c) Demand Withdrawal. A Demanding Holder and any other Holder
that has requested its Registrable Securities be included in a Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2.01(e) may withdraw all or any portion of its Registrable Securities included in a Demand Registration from a Demand Registration at any
time prior to the effectiveness of the applicable Demand Registration Statement. Upon receipt of a notice to such effect from the Demanding Holder with respect to all of the Registrable Securities included by such Holder in such Demand Registration,
the Issuer shall cease all efforts to secure effectiveness of the applicable Demand Registration Statement and such Registration nonetheless shall be deemed a Demand Registration with respect to the Demanding Holder for purposes of
Section 2.01(b) unless (i) withdrawn at any time prior to effectiveness, and in such case, only if the withdrawing Demanding Holder shall have paid or reimbursed the Issuer for its pro rata share of all reasonable and
documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by the Issuer in connection with the Registration of such Demanding Holder’s withdrawn Registrable Securities
(based on the number of securities the Demanding Holder sought to Register, as compared to the total number of securities included on such Demand Registration Statement) or (ii) the withdrawal is made following the occurrence of a Material
Adverse Change or because the Registration would require the Issuer to make an Adverse Disclosure. 
 (d) Effective Registration. The
Issuer shall be deemed to have effected a Demand Registration if the Demand Registration Statement has become effective and remains effective for not less than one hundred eighty (180) days (or such shorter period as shall terminate when all
Registrable Securities covered by such Demand Registration Statement have been sold or withdrawn), or if such Registration Statement relates to an Underwritten Offering, such longer period as, in the opinion of counsel for the underwriter or
underwriters, a Prospectus is required by law, to be delivered in connection with sales of Registrable Securities by an underwriter or dealer (the applicable period, the “Demand Period”). No Demand Registration

  
 6 

 
shall be deemed to have been effected if (i) during the Demand Period such Registration is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or other
governmental agency or court or (ii) the conditions to closing specified in the underwriting agreement, if any, entered into in connection with such Registration are not satisfied other than by reason of a wrongful act, misrepresentation or
breach of such applicable underwriting agreement by the Demanding Holder. 
 (e) Demand Notice. Promptly upon receipt of any request
for a Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2.01(a)(i) (but in no event more than two (2) Business Days thereafter), the Issuer shall deliver a written notice (a “Demand Notice”) of any such Registration request to all
other Holders, and subject to Sections 2.01(f) and 2.01(h) and the transfer restrictions set forth in Part 2 of Schedule A, the Issuer shall include in such Demand Registration all such Registrable Securities with respect to which
the Issuer has received written requests for inclusion therein within three (3) Business Days after the date that the Demand Notice has been delivered. All requests made pursuant to this Section 2.01(e) shall specify the intended aggregate
amount of Registrable Securities of the requesting Holder to be Registered and the intended method of distribution of such securities. 
 (f)
Delay in Filing; Suspension of Registration. If the Issuer determines in good faith that the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Demand Registration Statement at any time would require the Issuer to make an Adverse Disclosure,
the Issuer may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, the Demand Registration Statement (a “Demand Suspension”); provided, that the
Issuer shall not be permitted to exercise a Demand Suspension or Shelf Suspension (as defined in Section 2.02(d)) (i) more than once during any twelve (12)-month period, or (ii) for a period exceeding thirty (30) days on any one
occasion. In the case of a Demand Suspension, the Holders agree to suspend use of the applicable Prospectus and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses in connection with any sale or purchase, or offer to sell or purchase, Registrable Securities, upon
receipt of the notice referred to above. The Issuer shall immediately notify the Holders upon the termination of any Demand Suspension, amend or supplement the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, if necessary, so it does not contain
any untrue statement or omission and furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus as the Holders may reasonably request. The Issuer shall, if necessary,
supplement or make amendments to the Demand Registration Statement, if required by the registration form used by the Issuer for the Demand Registration or by the instructions applicable to such registration form or by the Securities Act or the rules
or regulations promulgated thereunder or as may reasonably be requested by the Demanding Holder. 
 (g) Underwritten Offering. If the
expected aggregate gross proceeds of an offering of Registrable Securities are at least $25 million, the Demanding Holder may request that such offering be in the form of an Underwritten Offering, and such Demanding Holder shall have the right
to select the managing underwriter or underwriters to administer the offering; provided, that such managing underwriter or underwriters shall be reasonably acceptable to the Issuer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the
Issuer be required to effect more than one (1) Underwritten Offering (regardless of whether such Underwritten Offering is requested pursuant to this Section 2.01(g), pursuant to Section 2.02(e) or pursuant to Section 2.02(f)) in
any ninety (90)-day period (or such shorter period specified in any applicable lock-up agreement entered into with underwriters). 

  
 7 

 (h) Priority of Securities Registered Pursuant to Demand Registrations. If the
managing underwriter or underwriters of a proposed Underwritten Offering of the Registrable Securities included in a Demand Registration (or, in the case of a Demand Registration not being underwritten, the Demanding Holders), advise the Board in
writing that, in its or their opinion, the number of securities requested to be included in such Demand Registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without being likely to have a significant adverse effect on the price, timing
or distribution of the securities offered or the market for the securities offered, the securities to be included in such Demand Registration shall be allocated, (i) first, if applicable, pro rata among the Holders eligible to
participate such offering based on the relative number of Registrable Securities then held by each such Holder; provided, that any securities thereby allocated to a Holder that exceed such Holder’s request shall be reallocated among the
remaining requesting Holders in like manner, and (ii) next, and only if all of the securities referred to in clause (i) have been included, the number of securities that the Issuer proposes to include in such Registration that, in the
opinion of the managing underwriter or underwriters (or the Holders, as the case may be) can be sold without having such adverse effect. 

(i) Distribution of Registrable Securities to Partners or Members. In the event any Holder requests to participate in a Registration
pursuant to this Section 2.01 in connection with a distribution of Registrable Securities to its partners or members, the Registration shall provide for resale by such partners or members, if requested by the Holder. 

SECTION 2.02. Shelf Registration. 

(a) Filing. As promptly as practicable following either (A) the date on which the Issuer first becomes eligible to use a Short Form
Registration Statement as a Shelf Registration Statement upon a request by an Eligible Holder, or (B) the date upon which the Issuer becomes a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) (a
“WKSI”), the Issuer shall file with the SEC a Shelf Registration Statement, which, for the avoidance of doubt, in the case of clause (B) would be an automatic shelf registration statement (as defined in Rule 405 under the
Securities Act) (an “Automatic Shelf Registration Statement”) for a WKSI, relating to the offer and sale of all Registrable Securities by the Holders from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by such
Holders and set forth in the Shelf Registration Statement and, as promptly as practicable thereafter, shall use its reasonable best effort to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act; provided that
prior to filing an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement, the Issuer shall consult with the Holders regarding the timing of such filing. 

(b) Continued Effectiveness. The Issuer shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep such Shelf Registration Statement continuously
effective under the Securities Act in order to permit the Prospectus forming a part thereof to be usable by Holders until the earlier of (i) the date as of which all Registrable Securities have been sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration
Statement or another Registration Statement filed under the Securities Act (but in no event prior to the applicable period referred to in Section 4(3) of the Securities Act and Rule 174 thereunder) and (ii) the date as of which each
of the Holders no longer holds its Registrable Securities (such period of effectiveness, the “Shelf Period”). Subject to Section 2.02(d), the Issuer shall not be 

  
 8 

 
deemed to have used its reasonable best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement effective during the Shelf Period if the Issuer voluntarily takes any action or omits to take any action
that would result in Holders of Registrable Securities covered thereby not being able to offer and sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement during the Shelf Period, unless such action or omission is required by
applicable law. The Issuer shall use its reasonable best efforts to remain a WKSI (and not become an ineligible issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act)) during the period during which an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement
is required to remain effective. If the Issuer does not pay the filing fee covering the Registrable Securities at the time the Automatic Shelf Registration Statement is filed, the Issuer agrees to pay such fee at such time or times as the
Registrable Securities are to be sold. If the Automatic Shelf Registration Statement has been outstanding for at least three (3) years, at the end of the third year the Issuer shall refile an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement covering the
Registrable Securities; provided that prior to filing an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement, the Issuer shall consult with the Holders regarding the timing of such filing. If at any time when the Issuer is required to re-evaluate its WKSI status the Issuer determines that it is not a WKSI, the Issuer shall use its reasonable best efforts to refile the Shelf Registration Statement as a Short Form Registration Statement or, if the
Issuer is not eligible to use a Short Form Registration Statement, as a Long Form Registration Statement, and keep such Registration Statement effective during the Shelf Period. 

(c) Shelf Notice. Promptly upon receipt of any request to file a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to clause (A) of
Section 2.02(a) (but in no event more than two (2) Business Days thereafter), the Issuer shall deliver a written notice (a “Shelf Notice”) of any such request to all other Holders specifying the amount of Registrable
Securities to be Registered. 
 (d) Suspension of Registration. If the Issuer determines in good faith that the continued use of such
Shelf Registration Statement at any time would require the Issuer to make an Adverse Disclosure, the Issuer may, upon giving at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice of such action to the Holders (or, in the case of a Block Trade, upon
receipt of notice of such Block Trade pursuant to Section 2.02(f)), suspend use of the Shelf Registration Statement (a “Shelf Suspension”); provided, that the Issuer shall not be permitted to exercise a Shelf Suspension
or Demand Suspension (i) more than once during any twelve (12)-month period, or (ii) for a period exceeding thirty (30) days on any one occasion. In the case of a Shelf Suspension, the Holders agree to suspend use of the applicable
Prospectus and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses in connection with any sale or purchase of, or offer to sell or purchase, Registrable Securities, upon receipt of the notice referred to above. The Issuer shall immediately notify the Holders upon
the termination of any Shelf Suspension, amend or supplement the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, if necessary, so it does not contain any untrue statement or omission and furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of the
Prospectus as so amended or supplemented or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus as the Holders may reasonably request. The Issuer shall, if necessary, supplement or make amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement, if required by the registration
form used by the Issuer for the Shelf Registration or by the instruction applicable to such registration form or by the Securities Act or the rules or regulations promulgated thereunder or as may reasonably be requested by the Holders. 

  
 9 

 (e) Underwritten Offering. If the expected aggregate gross proceeds of an offering of
Registrable Securities are at least $25 million, and an Eligible Holder or Eligible Holders so elect, such offering shall be in the form of an Underwritten Offering, the Issuer shall amend or supplement the Shelf Registration Statement for such
purpose and such Eligible Holder or Eligible Holders shall have the right to select the managing underwriter or underwriters to administer such offering; provided, that such managing underwriter or underwriters shall be reasonably acceptable
to the Issuer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Issuer be required to effect more than one (1) Underwritten Offering (regardless of whether such Underwritten Offering is requested pursuant to this Section 2.02(e),
pursuant to Section 2.02(f) or pursuant to Section 2.01(g)) in any ninety (90)-day period (or such shorter period specified in any
applicable lock-up agreement entered into with underwriters). The provisions of Section 2.01(h) shall apply to any Underwritten Offering pursuant to this Section 2.02(e). 

(f) Block Trades. If an Eligible Holder wishes to engage in a Block Trade, such [Holder] shall notify the Issuer of the Block Trade,
including the day on which such Block Trade is to commence no later than 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the day such Block Trade is to commence. The Eligible Holder shall notify the other Holders of the expected Block Trade. The other Holders must
elect whether or not to participate in such Block Trade on the day such offering is to commence, and the Issuer shall as expeditiously as possible use its reasonable best efforts (including co-operating with
the Holders with respect to the provision of necessary information) to facilitate such Block Trade, provided, that the Holder requesting such Block Trade shall use its reasonable best efforts to work with the Issuer and the underwriters prior to
making such request in order to facilitate preparation of the Prospectus and other offering documentation related to the Block Trade. 

SECTION 2.03. Piggyback Registration. 

(a) Participation. If the Issuer at any time proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to any
offering of its equity securities for its own account or for the account of any other Persons (other than (i) a Registration under Section 2.01 or Section 2.02, (ii) a Registration on
Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor form to such Forms or (iii) a Registration of securities solely relating to an offering and sale to employees or directors of
the Issuer pursuant to any employee stock plan or other employee benefit plan arrangement) (an “Issuer Public Sale”), then, as soon as practicable (but in no event less than five (5) Business Days prior to the proposed date of
public filing of such Registration Statement, provided that the Issuer shall not be required to deliver such notice prior to a confidential submission or non-public filing of any registration statement with
the SEC), the Issuer shall give written notice of such proposed filing to the Holders, and such notice shall offer the Holders the opportunity to Register under such Registration Statement such number of Registrable Securities as each such Holder
may request in writing (a “Piggyback Registration”). Subject to Section 2.03(b), the Issuer shall include in such Registration Statement all such Registrable Securities that are requested to be included therein within five
(5) Business Days after the receipt by such Holders of any such notice; provided, that if at any time after giving written notice of its intention to Register any securities and prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement
filed in connection with such Registration, the Issuer shall determine for any reason not to Register or to delay Registration of such securities, the Issuer shall give written notice of such determination to each Holder and, thereupon, (i) in
the case of a determination not to Register, shall be relieved of its obligation to Register any Registrable Securities in connection with such Registration (but not from its obligation to pay the Registration Expenses in

  
 10 

 
connection therewith), without prejudice, however, to the rights of the Holders to request that such Registration be effected as a Demand Registration under Section 2.01, and (ii) in
the case of a determination to delay Registering, in the absence of a request for a Demand Registration, shall be permitted to delay Registering any Registrable Securities, for the same period as the delay in Registering such other securities. If
the offering pursuant to such Registration Statement is to be underwritten, then each Holder making a request for a Piggyback Registration pursuant to this Section 2.03(a) and the Issuer shall make such arrangements with the managing
underwriter or underwriters so that each such Holder may participate in such Underwritten Offering. If the offering pursuant to such Registration Statement is to be on any other basis, then each Holder making a request for a Piggyback Registration
pursuant to this Section 2.03(a) and the Issuer shall make such arrangements so that each such Holder may, participate in such offering on such basis. 

(b) Priority of Piggyback Registration. If the managing underwriter or underwriters of any proposed Underwritten Offering of Registrable
Securities included in a Piggyback Registration informs the Issuer and the Holders in writing that, in its or their opinion, the number of securities which such Holders and any other Persons intend to include in such offering exceeds the number
which can be sold in such offering without being likely to have a significant adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the securities offered or the market for the securities offered, then the securities to be included in such
Registration shall be (i) first, 100% of the securities proposed to be sold in such Registration by the Issuer or (subject to Section 2.07(a)) any Person (other than a Holder) exercising a contractual right to demand Registration, as the
case may be, and (ii) second, and only if all the securities referred to in clause (i) have been included, the number of Registrable Securities that, in the opinion of such managing underwriter or underwriters, can be sold without having
such adverse effect, with such number to be allocated pro rata among the Holders that have requested to participate in such Registration based on the relative number of Registrable Securities then held by each such Holder;
provided, that any securities thereby allocated to a Holder that exceed such Holder’s request shall be reallocated among the remaining requesting Holders in like manner and (iii) third, and only if all of the Registrable Securities
referred to in clause (ii) have been included in such Registration, any other securities eligible for inclusion in such Registration. 

(c) Withdrawal. Any Holder shall have the right to withdraw all or part of its request for inclusion of its Registrable Securities in a
Piggyback Registration by giving written notice to the Issuer of its request to withdraw; provided, that (i) such request must be made in writing prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement and (ii) such withdrawal
shall be irrevocable and, after making such withdrawal, a Holder shall no longer have any right to include Registrable Securities in the Piggyback Registration as to which such withdrawal was made. 

(d) No Effect on Demand Registrations. No Registration of Registrable Securities effected pursuant to a request under this

 17 

 (c) The Issuer may require each Participating Holder to furnish to the Issuer such
information regarding the distribution of such securities and such other information relating to such Holder and its ownership of Registrable Securities as the Issuer may from time to time reasonably request in writing and the Issuer may exclude

deliver to the Issuer (at the Issuer’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Holder’s possession, of the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time

(e) If any Registration Statement or comparable statement under the “Blue Sky” laws refers to any Holder by name or otherwise as the
Holder of any securities of the Issuer, then such Holder shall have the right to require (i) the insertion therein of language, in form and substance satisfactory to such Holder and the Issuer, to the effect that the holding by such Holder of
such securities is not to be construed as a recommendation by such Holder of the investment quality of the Issuer’s securities covered thereby and that such holding does not imply that such Holder will assist in meeting any future financial
requirements of the Issuer, or (ii) in the event that such reference to such Holder by name or otherwise is not in the judgment of the Issuer, as advised by counsel, required by the Securities Act or any similar federal statute or any
“Blue Sky” or securities law then in force, the deletion of the reference to such Holder.

 18 

 
in substance and form to the Issuer, the Participating Holders and the underwriters, and to contain such representations and warranties by the Issuer and such other terms as are generally
prevailing in agreements of that type, including indemnities no less favorable to the recipient thereof than those provided in Section 2.09. The Participating Holders shall cooperate with the Issuer in the negotiation of such underwriting
agreement and shall give consideration to the reasonable suggestions of the Issuer regarding the form thereof. Such Holders shall not be required to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the Issuer or the underwriters other
than representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Holders, such Holder’s title to, and power and authority to transfer, the Registrable Securities, such Holder’s intended method of distribution, such matters pertaining to such
Holder’s compliance with securities laws as reasonably may be requested and any other representations required to be made by such Holder under applicable law, and the aggregate amount of the liability of such Holder shall not exceed such
Holder’s net proceeds from such Underwritten Offering. 
 (b) Piggyback Registrations. If the Issuer proposes to Register any of
its securities under the Securities Act as contemplated by Section 2.03 and such securities are to be distributed in an Underwritten Offering through one or more underwriters, the Issuer shall, if requested by any Holder pursuant to
Section 2.03 and subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(b), use its reasonable best efforts to arrange for such underwriters to include on the same terms and conditions that apply to the other sellers in such Registration all the
Registrable Securities to be offered and sold by such Holder among the securities of the Issuer to be distributed by such underwriters in such Registration. Any such Holder shall not be required to make any representations or warranties to, or
agreements with the Issuer or the underwriters other than representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Holder, such Holder’s title to, and power and authority to transfer, the Registrable Securities, such Holder’s intended
method of distribution, such matters pertaining to such Holder’s compliance with securities laws as reasonably may be requested and any other representations required to be made by such Holder under applicable law, and the aggregate amount of
the liability of such Holder shall not exceed such Holder’s net proceeds from such Underwritten Offering. 
 (c) Participation in
Underwritten Registrations. Subject to provisions of Section 2.06(a) and Section 2.06(b) above, no Person may participate in any Underwritten Offering hereunder unless such Person (i) agrees to sell such Person’s securities
on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other
documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. 
 (d) Price and Underwriting Discounts. In the case of an
Underwritten Offering under Section 2.01 or Section 2.02, the price, underwriting discount and other financial terms for the Registrable Securities shall be determined by the Demanding Holder(s) (or, in the case of a Shelf Registration,
the Holder(s) selling Registrable Securities under the Shelf Registration Statement). In addition, in the case of any Underwritten Offering under Section 2.01, Section 2.02 or Section 2.03, each of the Holders may, subject to any
limitations on withdrawal contained in Section 2.01, Section 2.02 or Section 2.03, withdraw all or part of their request to participate in such Registration after being advised of such price, discount and other terms and shall not be
required to enter into any agreements or documentation that would require otherwise. 

  
 19

Prospectus contained therein or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any documents incorporated by reference therein) or any other disclosure document produced by or on behalf of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries including reports and
other documents filed under the Exchange Act or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or amendment thereof or supplement thereto, (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to

regulation promulgated under the Securities Act or any state securities laws applicable to the Issuer and relating to action or inaction required of the Issuer in connection with any Registration pursuant to this Agreement; provided, that the
Issuer shall not be liable to any particular indemnified party (A) to the extent that any such Loss arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in any such Registration

Registration Statement or Prospectus) or (B) to the extent that any such Loss arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or omission in a preliminary Prospectus relating to Registrable Securities, if a Prospectus (as then amended or
supplemented) that would have cured the defect was furnished to the indemnified party from whom the Person asserting the claim giving rise to such Loss purchased Registrable Securities prior to the written confirmation of the sale of the Registrable
Securities to such Person and a copy of such Prospectus (as amended and supplemented) was not sent or given by or on behalf of such indemnified party to such Person at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of the Registrable Securities to
such Person. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Holder or any indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such Holder. The Issuer shall also
indemnify underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution, their officers and directors and each Person who controls such Persons (within the meaning of the Securities

statements therein (in the case of a Prospectus, preliminary Prospectus, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, in each case, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such
untrue statement or omission is contained in any information furnished in writing by such Holder to the Issuer specifically for inclusion in such Registration Statement and has not been corrected in a subsequent writing prior to or concurrently with
the confirmation of the sale of the Registrable Securities to the Person asserting the claim (which, in the case of the Holders, shall mean the written information furnished to the Issuer by such Holder expressly for use therein; it being understood

the caption “Other Information Related to This Offering—Principal Stockholders” (or similarly titled sections) in the applicable Registration Statement or Prospectus). In no event shall the liability of such Holder hereunder be
greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder under the sale of Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation less any amounts paid by such Holder pursuant to Section 2.09(d). The
Issuer shall be entitled to receive indemnities from underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution, to the same extent as provided above (with appropriate
modification). 
 (c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give
prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification; provided, that any delay or failure to so notify the indemnifying party shall relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations
hereunder only to the extent, if at all, that it is actually and materially prejudiced by reason of such delay or failure and (ii) the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, assume the
defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party). After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party
of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under paragraphs (a) or (b) of this Section 2.09, as applicable, for any legal expenses of other counsel or any
other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by the indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one
action or proceeding or separate but substantially similar actions or proceedings arising out of the same general allegations, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all indemnified parties
except to the extent that local counsel or counsel with specialized expertise (in addition to any regular counsel) is required to effectively defend against any such action or proceeding. No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of
the indemnified party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or
not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action or
claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party. 
  

  
 22 

 (d) Contribution. If for any reason the indemnification provided for in
paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 2.09 is unavailable to an indemnified party (other than as a result of exceptions contained in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 2.09) or insufficient in respect of any Losses
referred to therein, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Loss (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party
on the one hand and the indemnified party or parties on the other hand in connection with the acts, statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. In connection with any Registration
Statement filed with the SEC by the Issuer, the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information
and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 2.09(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any
other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 2.09(d). No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall
be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the Losses referred to in Section 2.09(a) and Section 2.09(b) shall be
deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this
Section 2.09(d), in connection with any Registration Statement filed by the Issuer, a Participating Holder shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder under the sale
of Registrable Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation less any amounts paid by such Holder pursuant to Section 2.09(b). The remedies provided for in this Section 2.09 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or
remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity. 
 SECTION 2.10. Rules 144 and 144A and
Regulation S. The Issuer shall use its reasonable best efforts to file in a timely fashion the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder, or, if
the Issuer is not required to file such reports, the Issuer shall make publicly available such necessary information for so long as necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rules 144, 144A or Regulation S under the Securities Act, and it will
take such further action as the Holders may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable the Holders, following the IPO, to sell Registrable Securities without Registration under the Securities Act within the limitation
of the exemptions provided by (i) Rules 144, 144A or Regulation S under the Securities Act, as such Rules may be amended from time to time, or (ii) any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC. Upon reasonable request of a
Holder, the Issuer will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements and, if not, the specifics thereof in reasonable detail. 

  
 23 

 SECTION 2.11. Trading Windows. The Issuer shall, at the request of [Chinos SPV][any
Eligible Holder], confirm whether a trading window is “open” under the trading windows established by the Issuer’s insider trading policy with respect to any possible Registration Statement. 

SECTION 2.12. In-Kind Distributions. If any Holder seeks to effectuate an in-kind distribution of all or part of its Registrable Securities to its direct or indirect equityholders, the Issuer will, subject to applicable lock-ups pursuant to
Section 2.04, reasonably cooperate with and assist such Holder, such equityholders and the Issuer’s transfer agent to facilitate such in-kind distribution in the manner reasonably requested by such
Holder (including the delivery of instruction letters by the Issuer or its counsel to the Issuer’s transfer agent and the delivery of Registrable Securities without restrictive legends, to the extent no longer applicable). 

Article III 
 MISCELLANEOUS

 SECTION 3.01. Term. This Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the fifth (5th) anniversary of the IPO and
(ii) the date upon which there are no Registrable Securities, except for the provisions of Section 2.09 and all of this Article III, which shall survive any such termination. 

SECTION 3.02. Existing Registration Statements. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary and subject to applicable law and
regulation, the Issuer may satisfy any obligation hereunder to file a Registration Statement or to have a Registration Statement become effective by a specified date by designating, by notice to the Holders, a Registration Statement that previously
has been filed with the SEC or become effective, as the case may be, as the relevant Registration Statement for purposes of satisfying such obligation, and all references to any such obligation shall be construed accordingly; provided, that
such previously filed Registration Statement may be amended to add the number of Registrable Securities, and, to the extent necessary, to identify as selling stockholders those Holders demanding the filing of a Registration Statement pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement. To the extent this Agreement refers to the filing or effectiveness of other Registration Statements by or at a specified time and the Issuer has, in lieu of then filing such Registration Statements or having such
Registration Statements become effective, designated a previously filed or effective Registration Statement as the relevant Registration Statement for such purposes in accordance with the preceding sentence, such references shall be construed to
refer to such designated Registration Statement. 
 SECTION 3.03. Injunctive Relief. It is hereby agreed and acknowledged that it will
be impossible to measure in money the damage that would be suffered if the parties fail to comply with any of the obligations herein imposed on them and that in the event of any such failure, an aggrieved Person will be irreparably damaged and will
not have an adequate remedy at law. Any such Person shall, therefore, be entitled (in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled in law or in equity) to injunctive relief, including specific performance, to enforce such obligations,
and if any action should be brought in equity to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement, none of the parties hereto shall raise the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law. 

  
 24 

 SECTION 3.04. Notices. Unless otherwise specified herein, all notices, consents,
approvals, designations, requests, waivers, elections and other communications authorized or required to be given pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be given or made (and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made upon
receipt) by personal hand-delivery, by facsimile transmission, by electronic mail, by mailing the same in a sealed envelope, registered first-class mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or by air courier guaranteeing overnight delivery,

any such claim, action, suit or proceeding in any such court or that any such claim, action, suit or proceeding that is brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. 

(c) Subject to applicable law, process in any such claim, action, suit or proceeding may be served on any party anywhere in the world, whether
within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Without limiting the foregoing and subject to applicable law, each party agrees that service of process on such party as provided in Section 3.05 shall be deemed effective service of process
on such party. Nothing herein shall affect the right of any party to 

  
 26 

 
serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or at equity. WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUCH CLAIM, ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT, EACH OF THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY WAIVES AND
RELEASES TO THE OTHER ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY, AND AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT SEEK A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING.

 Section 4.3. Notice from the Company. If the Company proposes to issue New
Securities to the Sponsor Members or any of their Affiliates, in whole or in part, the Company shall give written notice of such proposal no later than 15 Business Days prior to the anticipated issuance date to Chinos SPV and Chinos SPV shall, in
turn, provide reasonably prompt written notice of such proposal to, (a) for so long as the Series A-1 Loans remain outstanding, each Series A-1 Holder, and
(b) upon repayment in full of the Series A-1 Loans, each Chinos SPV Holder holding at least [●]% of the ownership of Chinos SPV (in each case, the “Preemptive Rights Notice”),
describing the type of New Securities, the price and the principal terms upon which the Company proposes to issue the same. For a period commencing on the delivery of the Preemptive Rights Notice to Chinos SPV and ending on the date that is five
Business Days prior to the anticipated issuance date, the Company shall be deemed to have offered to sell to each Series A-1 Holder or Chinos SPV Holder, as applicable, the number of New Securities calculated
in accordance with Section 4.2 for the price and upon the terms specified in the Preemptive Rights Notice. Each Series A-1 Holder or Chinos SPV Holder, as applicable, may, no later
than five Business Days prior to the anticipated issuance date, exercise its preemptive right hereunder by giving written notice to Chinos SPV and the Company of its election to purchase New Securities and stating therein the quantity of New
Securities to be purchased. A delivery of such written notice by such Series A-1 Holder or Chinos SPV Holder, as applicable, shall constitute a binding agreement of such Series
A-1 Holder or Chinos SPV Holder, as applicable, to purchase, at the price and on the terms and conditions specified in the Preemptive Rights Notice, the number of New Securities specified in the notice of such
Series A-1 Holder or Chinos SPV Holder, as applicable. If, by the date that is five Business Days prior to the anticipated issuance date, any Series A-1 Holder or Chinos
SPV Holder, as applicable, has not exercised its right to purchase any of its pro rata share of such New Securities to be issued by the Company, such Series A-1 Holder or Chinos SPV Holder, as applicable,
shall be deemed to have waived all of its rights under this Section 4.3 with respect to, and only with respect to, the purchase of such New Securities specified in the Preemptive Rights Notice. If at the end of the 135th day after the delivery of a Preemptive Rights Notice (as such period may be extended to obtain any required regulatory approvals), the Company has not completed the issuance, each Series A-1 Holder or Chinos SPV Holder, as applicable, that has elected to participate in accordance with this Section 4.3 shall be released from the obligations of such Series A-1 Holder or Chinos SPV Holder, as applicable, under the written commitment, the Preemptive Rights Notice shall be null and void, and it shall be necessary for a separate Preemptive Rights Notice to be furnished,
and the terms and provisions of this Article IV separately complied with, in order to consummate such issuance. 
 Section 4.4.
Sale by the Company. Upon the Company’s decision to raise additional capital under this Article IV under circumstances in which the Series A-1 Holders or the Chinos SPV Holders, as
applicable, have a preemptive right under this Article IV, if any Series A-1 Holder or Chinos SPV Holder, as applicable, elects not to provide all of such capital under
Section 4.3 (the difference between the total number of New Securities to be purchased by such Series A-1 Holder or Chinos SPV Holder, as applicable, and the number of New Securities
for which Series A-1 Holders or Chinos SPV Holders, as applicable, exercised their preemptive rights under this Article IV, the “Excess Securities”), the other Series A-1 Holders or Chinos SPV Holders, as applicable, shall have the right to purchase a number of Excess Securities in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests. 

  
 9 

 Section 4.5. Closing. The Closing for any issuance contemplated by this
Article IV shall take place at the time and in the manner provided in the Preemptive Rights Notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company shall be under no obligation to consummate any proposed issuance of New
Securities, nor shall there be any liability or obligation on the part of the Company to any Series A-1 Holder or Chinos SPV Holder, as applicable, if the Company does not consummate any proposed issuance of
New Securities for whatever reason, regardless of whether it shall have delivered a written notice in respect of such proposed issuance. 

Section 4.6. Immediate Purchase. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Board determines that there is a need for capital
and that there is insufficient time to apply the processes in Section 4.3 and Section 4.4, the Company may proceed with any issuance of New Securities without having complied with the provisions of
this Article IV (other than this Section 4.6); provided, however, that the Company shall, promptly following such issuance of such New Securities, but in any event within two Business Days thereof,
offer to issue to each Series A-1 Holder or Chinos SPV Holder, as applicable, by way of notice to Chinos SPV, which shall, in turn, provide notice of such offer to issue to each Series A-1 Holder or Chinos SPV Holder, as applicable, such number of New Securities of the type issued in such issuance as may be requested by such Series A-1 Holder or Chinos SPV
Holder, as applicable (not to exceed the number of New Securities that is sufficient to give such Series A-1 Holder or Chinos SPV Holder, as applicable, the same Percentage Interest, after taking into account
such issuance and any further issuances pursuant to this Section 4.6, as it would have had if the Company had given notice pursuant to, and such Series A-1 Holder or Chinos SPV
Holder, as applicable, had exercised its rights in full under, this Article IV (other than this Section 4.6) prior to the issuance) on substantially the same terms and conditions with respect to such New Securities
as the subscribers in the issuance received. The Company shall keep such offer open for a period of 15 Business Days, during which period, each such Series A-1 Holder or Chinos SPV Holder, as applicable, may
accept such offer by sending a written acceptance to the Company committing to purchase an amount of such New Securities (not to exceed the amount specified in the offer made pursuant to this Section 4.6). 

Section 4.7. Compliance with Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the participation by any Series A-1 Holder or Chinos SPV Holder, as applicable, in a sale by the Company of New Securities would require, under applicable law, the registration or qualification of such securities or of any Person as a broker or
dealer or agent with respect to such New Securities, such Series A-1 Holder or Chinos SPV Holder, as applicable, shall not have the right to purchase New Securities pursuant hereto and shall not be
considered for purposes of determining the number of New Securities the other Series A-1 Holders or Chinos SPV Holders, as applicable, are entitled to purchase pursuant to
Section 4.2, unless otherwise authorized by the Board. Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that the Company shall not be under any obligation under this Article IV to effect a registration of
such securities under the Securities Act or any other applicable securities Laws.

(a) (i) Madewell hereby agrees, and hereby causes the relevant member of the Madewell Group, to assign, contribute, convey, transfer and
deliver (or shall have assigned, contributed, conveyed, transferred and delivered) to J.Crew or any member of the J.Crew Group as of the Distribution Time designated by J.Crew (a “J.Crew Designee”) all of the right, title and

the relevant party shall promptly (i) assign, contribute, convey, transfer, deliver or assume such asset or Liability in accordance with this Section 2.02 or (ii) cause its Affiliates to assign, contribute,
convey, transfer, deliver or assume such asset or Liability in accordance with this Section 2.02.

transfer, assignment, or assumption without the consent of a Third Party or a Governmental Authority, would result in a breach, or constitute a default (or an event which, 

  
 15 

 
with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would become a default), under any Contract or would otherwise adversely affect the rights of a member of the Madewell Group or the J.Crew
Group thereunder. Madewell and J.Crew will use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of any Third Party (including any Governmental Authority), if any, required in connection with the transfer, assignment or
assumption pursuant to Section 2.02 of any such asset or any such claim or right or benefit arising thereunder or to the assumption of any Liability; provided that in no event shall any member of a Group have any

such Liability for all amounts paid, incurred in connection with or arising out of the retention of such Liability. In addition, the party retaining such asset, claim or right, or such Liability (or relevant member of its Group) shall (or shall
cause such member in its Group to) treat, insofar as reasonably possible and to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, such asset, claim or right, or such Liability, in the ordinary course of business in accordance with past practice and take such
other actions as may be reasonably requested by the party to which such asset, claim or right, or such Liability, is to be transferred or assumed in order to place such party in the same position as if such asset, claim or right, or such Liability,
had been transferred or assumed on or prior to the Distribution Time as contemplated hereby and so that all the benefits and burdens relating to such asset, claim or right, or such Liability, including possession, use, risk of loss, potential for
gain, and dominion, control and command over such asset, claim or right, or such Liability, are to inure from and after the Distribution Time to the relevant member of the Madewell Group or the J.Crew Group, as the case may be, entitled to the
receipt of such asset, claim or right, or required to assume such Liability.

Time, the only Contracts between members of the Madewell Group, on the one hand, and members of the J.Crew Group, on the other hand, in effect immediately prior to the Distribution are hereby agreed by Madewell (on behalf of itself and each member

Agreement (A) to be entered into by any of the parties hereto or any of the members of their respective Groups or (B) to survive the Separation Date); (ii) any Contract to which any Person, other than solely the parties hereto and the
members of their respective Groups, is a party; and (iii) any Intercompany Accounts to the extent such Intercompany Accounts were not satisfied and/or settled in accordance with the first sentence of Section 2.04 (it
being understood that such Intercompany Accounts shall be satisfied or settled in accordance with the second sentence of Section 2.04).

initiated by Madewell, J.Crew, or any of their respective Subsidiaries prior to the Distribution Time, such outstanding payments shall be honored following the Distribution by the Person or Group owning the account from which the payment was
initiated. 
 (c) As between Madewell and J.Crew (and the members of their respective Groups) all payments received after the Distribution
Date by either party (or member of its Group) that relate to a business, asset or Liability of the other party (or member of its Group), shall be held by such party for the use and benefit and at the expense of the party entitled thereto. Each party
shall maintain an accounting of any such payments, and the parties shall have a weekly reconciliation, whereby all such payments received by each party are calculated and the net amount owed to Madewell or J.Crew, as applicable, shall be paid over
with a mutual right of set-off. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Madewell nor J.Crew shall act as collection agent for the other party, nor shall either party act as surety or endorser with respect to non-sufficient funds checks or funds to be returned in a bankruptcy or fraudulent conveyance action.

Section 4.01. Books and Records; Access to Information. (a) To the extent not previously transferred in accordance with
Section 2.01(a) or Section 2.02, from and after the Distribution Date, Madewell shall, and shall cause the members of the Madewell Group to, promptly deliver to J.Crew or any J.Crew Designee any
books and records (other than Experian Customer Data) that are J.Crew Assets (or copies of relevant portions thereof if such books and records contain information not related to the J.Crew Business) found to be in the possession of Madewell or any
member of the Madewell Group; provided that without limiting any express delivery requirements under this Section 4.01(a), neither Madewell nor any member of the Madewell Group shall be required to conduct any
general search or investigation of its files for such books and records. 
 (b) Without limiting the express delivery requirements of
Section 4.01(a) or any Ancillary Agreement, for a period of seven (7) years after the Distribution Date, each Group shall afford promptly the other Group and its authorized Representatives and, to the extent required
by Applicable Law, authorized representatives of any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction, reasonable access (which shall include, to the extent reasonably requested, the right to make copies) during normal business hours upon reasonable
advance notice and to the extent permitted by Applicable Law to its books of account, financial and other records (including accountant’s work papers, to the extent any required consents have been obtained), files, information (excluding any
Customer Data) and employees to the extent necessary or useful for such other Group in connection with any audit, investigation, dispute or litigation, complying with their obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, any regulatory
proceeding, any regulatory filings, complying with reporting disclosure requirements or any other requirements imposed by any Governmental Authority or any other reasonable business purpose of the Group requesting such access; provided that
(i) any such access shall not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of the Group providing such access and (ii) if any party reasonably determines that affording any such access to the other party would be commercially
detrimental in any material respect or violate any Applicable Law or agreement to which such party or member of its Group is a party, or waive any legal privilege applicable to such party or any member of its Group, the parties shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to permit the compliance with such request in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence. 
 (c)
Without limiting the express delivery requirements of Section 4.01(a) or any Ancillary Agreement, following the Separation each party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the other party’s

its disclosure controls and procedures and its internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Items 307 and 308, respectively, of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Exchange Act; and
(ii) other than services provided in connection with the Transition Services Agreement, the other party’s auditors timely to complete their review of the quarterly financial statements and audit of the annual financial statements,

Section 4.02(c), effective as of the Distribution Time, the applicable member of the J.Crew Group shall assume and thereafter be responsible for all Liabilities of either Group that may result from the J.Crew Assumed
Actions and, subject to Section 5.04(c), all Liabilities and fees and costs relating to the defense of the J.Crew Assumed Actions, including attorneys’, accountants’, consultants’ and other

claim or investigation is directed that are primarily related to the J.Crew Business and (y) all Actions commenced by a third party that J.Crew has elected to control the defense of as the Indemnifying Party pursuant to
Section 5.04(b). If any member of the Madewell Group has any rights or claims against a Third Party insurer or other Third Party in connection with or relating to any J.Crew Assumed Action, such member shall, subject to

doubt, effective as of the Distribution Time, (i) J.Crew shall be entitled to all recovery, rights, claims, credits, causes of action, payments, awards and rights of set-off, in each case, with respect to
the J.Crew Assumed Actions and (ii) each member of the Madewell Group shall be unconditionally and forever discharged and released from any and all Liabilities of or relating to the J.Crew Assumed Actions. Madewell hereby agrees to transfer or
pay, and to cause any applicable member of the Madewell Group to transfer or pay, to J.Crew any such recovery, rights, claims, credits, causes of action, payments, awards and rights of set-off as promptly as
possible. 
 (b) Subject to Section 4.02(c), effective as of the Distribution Time, the applicable member of the

the defense of the Madewell Assumed Actions, including attorneys’, accountants’, consultants’ and other professionals’ fees and expenses that have been incurred prior to the Distribution Time and are unpaid as of or after the
Distribution Time, or, that are incurred on or after the Distribution Time. “Madewell Assumed Actions” means (x) those Actions commenced by a third party primarily related to the Madewell Business, including those in which any
member of the J.Crew Group or any Affiliate of a member of the J.Crew Group is a defendant or the party against whom the claim or investigation is directed that are primarily related to the Madewell Business and (y) all Actions commenced by a
third party that Madewell has elected to control the defense of as the Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 5.04(b). If any member of the J.Crew Group has any rights or claims against a Third Party insurer or other Third
Party in connection with or relating to any Madewell Assumed Action, such member shall, subject to Section 2.03, transfer and assign to the 

  
 22 

 
applicable member of the Madewell Group all such rights or claims and cooperate with the Madewell Group in connection with the enforcement and collection thereof. For the avoidance of doubt,
effective as of the Distribution Time, (i) Madewell shall be entitled to all recovery, rights, claims, credits, causes of action, payments, awards and rights of set-off, in each case, with respect to the
Madewell Assumed Actions and (ii) each member of the Madewell Group shall be unconditionally and forever discharged and released from any and all Liabilities of or relating to the J.Crew Assumed Actions. J.Crew hereby agrees to transfer or pay,
and to cause any applicable member of the J.Crew Group to transfer or pay, to Madewell any such recovery, rights, claims, credits, causes of action, payments, awards and rights of set-off as promptly as
possible. 
 (c) Effective as of the Distribution Time, Madewell and J.Crew shall jointly control any Existing Litigation Matter and shall
cooperate in defending against such Action; provided, however, that no member of either Group may settle an Existing Litigation Matter without the prior written consent of the other Group named or involved in such Existing Litigation
Matter, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided further that all fees and costs relating to the defense of the Existing Litigation Matters, including attorneys’, accountants’, consultants’ and other
professionals’ fees and expenses that have been incurred prior to the Distribution Time and are unpaid as of or after the Distribution Time, or, that are incurred on or after the Distribution Time shall be allocated in accordance with the
amounts set forth on Schedule 4.02(c). 
 (d) Each party agrees that, at all times from and after the Distribution Time, if an Action
relating primarily to its Business is commenced by a Third Party naming a member of each Group as defendants thereto, such action shall be deemed to be a J.Crew Assumed Action (in the case of an Action primarily related to the J.Crew Business) or a
Madewell Assumed Action (in the case of an Action primarily related to the Madewell Business) and the party as to which the Action primarily relates shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the other party or member of its Group to be
removed from such Action. 
 (e) The parties agree, that at all times from and after the Distribution Time, if any Action is commenced by a
Third Party naming a member of each Group as a defendant thereto and the parties are not able to reasonably determine whether such Action primarily relates to the J.Crew Business or the Madewell Business, then the parties shall cooperate in good
faith to determine which party and the members of its Group shall control and be responsible for such Action in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.02, and the parties will consult to the extent necessary or
advisable with respect to such Action. 
 (f) Each Group shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to the other Group and
its attorneys, accountants, consultants and other designated representatives, upon written request, its directors, officers, employees and representatives as witnesses, and shall otherwise cooperate with the other Group, to the extent reasonably
requested in connection with any Action arising out of either Group’s Business prior to the Distribution Time in which the requesting Group may from time to time be involved. 

  
 23 

 (g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.02 shall not
require the party to whom any request pursuant to Section 4.02(f) has been made to make available Persons or information if such party determines that doing so would, in the reasonable good faith judgment of such party,
reasonably be expected to result in any violation of any Applicable Law or agreement or adversely affect its ability to successfully assert a claim of Privilege under Applicable Law; provided, that the parties shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to cooperate in seeking to find a way to permit compliance with such obligations to the extent and in a manner that avoids such consequence. 

Section 4.03. Reimbursement. Each Group providing information or witnesses to the other Group or otherwise incurring any out-of-pocket expense in connection with transferring books and records or otherwise cooperating under Section 4.01 or
Section 4.02 shall be entitled to receive from the recipient thereof, upon the presentation of invoices therefor, payment for all reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including attorney’s fees but excluding reimbursement for general overhead, salary and employee benefits) actually incurred in
providing such access, information, witnesses or cooperation. 
 Section 4.04. Ownership of Information. All information (other
than Experian Customer Data) owned by one party (or a member of its Group) that is provided to the other party (or a member of its Group) under Section 4.01 or Section 4.02 shall be deemed to
remain the property of the providing party. Unless specifically set forth herein or in any Ancillary Agreement, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to grant or confer any right, title, interest in or license to any such
information. 
 Section 4.05. Retention of Records. Except as otherwise required by Applicable Law or agreed to in writing, for
a period of seven (7) years following the Separation Date, each party shall, and shall cause the members of its Group to, retain any and all information in its possession or control relating to the other Group’s Business in accordance with
the document retention practices of the Madewell Group. Neither party shall destroy, or permit the destruction, or otherwise dispose, or permit the disposal, of any such information, subject to such retention practice, unless, prior to such
destruction or disposal, the party proposing (or whose Group member is proposing) such destruction or disposal (the “Disposing Party”) provides not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the other party (the
“Receiving Party”), specifying the information proposed to be destroyed or disposed of and the scheduled date for such destruction or disposal. If the Receiving Party shall request in writing prior to the scheduled date for such
destruction or disposal that any of the information proposed to be destroyed or disposed of be delivered to the Receiving Party, the Disposing Party shall promptly arrange for the delivery of such of the information as was requested at the expense
of the Receiving Party; provided that, if the Disposing Party reasonably determines that any such provision of information would violate any Applicable Law or agreement to which such party or member of its Group is a party, or waive
any legal privilege applicable to such party or any member of its Group, the parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to permit the prompt compliance with such request in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence. Any records or
documents that were subject to a litigation hold prior to the Distribution Date must be retained by the applicable party until such party or member of its Group is notified by the other party that the litigation hold is no longer in effect.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither party shall be required to destroy or deliver any Experian Customer Data. 

  
 24 

 Section 4.06. Confidentiality. 

(a) Each party acknowledges that it or a member of its Group may have in its possession, and, in connection with this Agreement and the
Ancillary Agreements, may receive, Confidential Information of the other party or any member of its Group. Each party shall hold and shall cause its directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants and advisors
(“Representatives”) and the members of its Group and their Representatives to hold in strict confidence and not to use or disclose, except as permitted by this Agreement, or any Ancillary Agreement all such Confidential Information
concerning the other Group unless (a) such party or any of the members of its Group or its or their Representatives is compelled to disclose such Confidential Information by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of
Applicable Law or (b) such Confidential Information can be shown to have been (i) in the public domain through no fault of such party or any of the members of its Group or its or their Representatives, (ii) lawfully acquired after the
Distribution Date on a non-confidential basis from other sources not known by such party to be under any legal obligation to keep such information confidential or (iii) developed by such party or any of
the members of its Group or its or their Representatives without the use of any Confidential Information of the other Group. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such party or member of its Group or its or their Representatives may disclose such
Confidential Information to the members of its Group and its or their Representatives so long as (x) such Persons are informed by such party of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information, (y) such Persons are directed by and
obligated to treat such information confidentially and (z) such Persons have a reasonable business purpose for receiving such Confidential Information. The obligation of each party and the members of its Group and its and their Representatives
to hold any such Confidential Information in confidence shall be satisfied if they exercise the same level of care with respect to such Confidential Information as they would with respect to their own proprietary information and in no case less than
a commercially reasonable standard of care relative to the type of Confidential Information. If such party or any of a member of its Group or any of its or their Representatives becomes legally compelled to disclose any documents or information
subject to this Section 4.06, such party will promptly notify the other party and, upon request, use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the other party’s efforts to seek a protective order or other
remedy. If no such protective order or other remedy is obtained or if the other party waives in writing such party’s compliance with this Section 4.06, such party or the member of its Group or its or their
Representatives may furnish only that portion of the information which it concludes, after consultation with counsel, is legally required to be disclosed and will exercise its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that
confidential treatment will be accorded such information. Each party agrees to be responsible for any breach of this Section 4.06 by it, the members of its Group and its and their Representatives. This provision shall
survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement. 
 (b) With respect to Customer Data, (i) Madewell shall implement and maintain
appropriate technical and organization measures and security procedures and practices with respect to the Customer Data to prevent unauthorized or unlawful access, disclosure, use or processing of the Customer Data and (ii) Madewell and J.Crew
shall comply with the consumer-facing privacy policy in effect at the time the Customer Data was collected. 

  
 25 

 (c) Madewell shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, adopt its own privacy policy
substantially in the form of the J.Crew Business’ consumer-facing privacy policy prior to the Distribution Time. 
 Section 4.07.
Privileged Information. (a) The parties acknowledge that members of the Madewell Group, on the one hand, and members of the J.Crew Group, on the other hand, may engage in communications and possess documents or other information
regarding the other Group that are or may be subject to the attorney-client privilege, the work product doctrine or common interest privilege (collectively, “Privileges”; and such communications, documents and other information
collectively, the “Privileged Information”). Each party agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) protect and maintain, and to cause their respective Affiliates to protect and maintain, any applicable claim to
Privilege and (ii) prevent, and to cause their respective Affiliates to prevent, any of the other Group’s Privileged Information from being disclosed or used in a manner inconsistent with such Privilege without the other party’s
consent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a party and its Affiliates shall not, without the other party’s prior written consent, (i) waive any Privilege with respect to any of the other party’s or any member of its
Group’s Privileged Information, (ii) fail to defend any Privilege with respect to any such Privileged Information, or (iii) fail to take any other actions reasonably necessary to preserve any Privilege with respect to any such
Privileged Information. 
 (b) Upon receipt by a party or any member of such party’s Group of any subpoena, discovery or other request
that calls for the production or disclosure of Privileged Information of the other party or a member of its Group, such party shall promptly notify the other party of the existence of the request and shall provide the other party a reasonable
opportunity to review the information and to assert any rights it or a member of its Group may have under this Section 4.07 or otherwise to prevent the production or disclosure of such Privileged Information. Each party
agrees that neither it nor any member of its Group will produce or disclose any information that may be covered by a Privilege of the party or a member of its Group under this Section 4.07 unless (i) the other party
has provided its written consent to such production or disclosure (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) or (ii) a court of competent jurisdiction has entered an order finding that the information is not entitled to protection under
any applicable Privilege or otherwise requires disclosure of such information. 
 (c) In the event that any member of the Madewell Group and
any member of the J.Crew Group cooperate in the mutual defense of any Third Party Claim, such cooperation shall not constitute a waiver or qualification of such party’s right to assert and defend any applicable claim to Privilege. In such
event, the parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enter into a joint defense agreement and any other agreements necessary to preserve Privilege pursuant to such Third Party Claim. 

(d) Each of the Madewell Group and the J.Crew Group covenants and agrees that, following the Distribution Time, Weil, Gotshal & Manges
LLP or any other internal or external legal counsel currently representing a member of the J.Crew Group (each a “Prior Company Counsel”) may serve as counsel to the Madewell Group and its
Affiliates in connection with any matters arising under or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, including with respect to any litigation, Claim or obligation arising out of or
related to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or the 

  
 26 

 
transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, notwithstanding any representation by the Prior Company Counsel prior to the Distribution Time. The Madewell Group and the
J.Crew Group hereby irrevocably (i) waive any Claim they have or may have that a Prior Company Counsel has a conflict of interest or is otherwise prohibited from engaging in such representation and (ii) covenant and agree that, in the
event that a dispute arises after the Distribution Time between the J.Crew Group and the Madewell Group (together with its Affiliates), Prior Company Counsel may represent any member of the Madewell Group and any Affiliates thereof in such dispute
even though the interests of such Person(s) may be directly adverse to the Madewell Group or the J.Crew Group and even though Prior Company Counsel may have represented the J.Crew Group in a matter substantially related to such dispute. 

(e) All communications between members of the Madewell Group, on the one hand, and Prior Company Counsel, on the other hand, related to the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement shall be deemed to be attorney-client confidences that belong solely to such members of the Madewell Group or the Prior Company Counsel (the “Pre-Distribution Time Communications”). Accordingly, the J.Crew Group shall not have access to any such Pre-Distribution Time Communications or to the files of Prior
Company Counsel relating to such engagement related to the transactions contemplated hereby from and after the Distribution Time, and all books, records and other materials of the J.Crew Group in any medium (including electronic copies) containing
or reflecting any of the Pre-Distribution Time Communications or the work product of legal counsel with respect thereto, including any related summaries, drafts or analyses, and all rights with respect to any
of the foregoing, are hereby assigned and transferred to the Madewell Group effective as of the Distribution Time (collectively, the “Madewell Group Privileged Materials”). The Madewell Group may cause all of the Madewell Group
Privileged Materials to be distributed to the Madewell Group immediately prior to the Distribution Time with no copies thereof retained by the J.Crew Group or its respective representatives, and all such distributed Madewell Group Privileged
Materials shall be excluded from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement. From and after the Distribution Time, in the event that any member of the J.Crew Group shall possess any Madewell Group Privileged
Materials, such member of the J.Crew Group shall promptly cause such Madewell Group Privileged Materials to be distributed to the Madewell Group in accordance with this Section 4.07(e) or destroyed, at the election of
Madewell. In addition, from and after the Distribution Time, (i) the J.Crew Group and its representatives shall maintain the confidentiality of the Madewell Group Privileged Materials and (ii) none of the members of the J.Crew Group or
their respective representatives shall access or in any way, directly or indirectly, use or rely upon any Madewell Group Privileged Materials (whether or not distributed to the Madewell Group prior to the Distribution Time in accordance with this
Section 4.07(e)). To the extent that any Madewell Group Privileged Materials are not delivered to the Madewell Group, the J.Crew Group agrees not to assert a waiver of any applicable privilege or protection with respect to
such materials. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, from and after the Distribution Time, (a) the Madewell Group shall be the sole holders of the Privileges with respect to the Madewell Group Privileged Materials, and no member of
the J.Crew Group shall be a holder thereof, (b) to the extent that files of Prior Company Counsel in respect of Madewell Group Privileged Materials constitute property of the client, only the Madewell Group shall hold such property rights,
(c) Prior Company Counsel shall have no duty whatsoever to reveal or disclose any Madewell Group Privileged Materials to 

  
 27 

 
the J.Crew Group by reason of any attorney-client relationship between Prior Company Counsel and the J.Crew Group and (d) after the Distribution Date, all communications between members of
the J.Crew Group, on the one hand, and any attorneys retained by any member of the J.Crew Group, on the other hand, shall be deemed to be attorney-client confidences that belong solely to such members of the J.Crew Group or such attorneys. Each of
the J.Crew Group and the Madewell Group hereby acknowledges and confirms that it has had the opportunity to review and obtain adequate information regarding the significance and risks of the waivers and other terms and conditions of this
Section 4.07(e), including the opportunity to discuss with counsel such matters and reasonable alternatives to such terms. This Section 4.07(e) is for the benefit of the Madewell Group and Prior
Company Counsel, and the Madewell Group and Prior Company Counsel are intended third party beneficiaries of this Section 4.07(e). This Section 4.07(e) shall be irrevocable, and no term of this
Section 4.07(e) may be amended, waived or modified, without the prior written consent of the Madewell Group and Prior Company Counsel. The covenants and obligations set forth in this
Section 4.07(e) shall survive for ten (10) years following the Distribution Time. 
 (f) In furtherance of
this Section 4.07, the parties may enter into a Common Interest Agreement. 
 Section 4.08. Limitation of
Liability. 
 (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no party shall have any liability to any other party in the event that
any information, books or records exchanged or provided pursuant to this Agreement is found to be inaccurate or the requested information, books or records is not provided, in the absence of willful misconduct by the party requested to provide such
information, books or records. No party shall have any liability to any other party if any information, books or records is destroyed after commercially reasonable efforts by such party to comply with the provisions of
Section 4.05. 
 (b) IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY MEMBER OF THE MADEWELL GROUP OR THE J.CREW GROUP BE LIABLE TO ANY MEMBER
OF THE J.CREW GROUP OR MADEWELL GROUP, RESPECTIVELY, FOR ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS, HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THIS
AGREEMENT, WHETHER OR NOT SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS SHALL NOT LIMIT AN INDEMNIFYING PARTY’S INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER WITH RESPECT TO ANY
LIABILITY ANY INDEMNIFIED PARTY MAY HAVE TO ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THE ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS. 

Section 4.09. Other Agreements Providing for Exchange of Information. The rights and obligations granted under this ARTICLE
4 are subject to any specific limitations, qualifications or additional provisions on the sharing, exchange, retention, rights to use, or confidential treatment of Information set forth in any Ancillary Agreement or schedule thereto.

that portion of the J.Crew Business or the businesses conducted by the J.Crew Group’s Affiliates to which the Madewell Licensed IP relates, and, following any such assignment, the assignee will be deemed to be “J.Crew Group” for the
purposes of the license granted herein. J.Crew acknowledges and agrees, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and Affiliates to acknowledge and agree, that the Madewell Group and its Affiliates shall retain the right to use the Madewell Licensed IP in

related Released Party; provided, however, that the parties hereto agree not to bring or allow their respective Subsidiaries to bring suit against the other party or any related Released Party with respect to any such Liability. 

In addition, nothing contained in Section 5.01(a) shall release any party or any member of its Group from honoring
its existing obligations to indemnify, or advance expenses to, any Person who was a director, officer or employee of such party or any member of its Group, at or prior to the Distribution Time, to the extent such Person was entitled to such
indemnification or advancement of expenses pursuant to then-existing obligations; provided, however, that to the extent applicable, Section 5.02 hereof shall determine whether any party shall be required to

between the parties on or before the Distribution Date), except as expressly set forth in Section 5.01(b) or as expressly provided in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement. At any time, at the reasonable request of
either Madewell or J.Crew, the other party hereto shall execute and deliver (and cause its respective Subsidiaries to execute and deliver) releases reflecting the provisions hereof.

(i) any of the J.Crew Liabilities, or the failure of any member of the J.Crew Group to pay, perform or otherwise discharge any of the J.Crew Liabilities, (ii) the ownership or operation of the J.Crew Business or the J.Crew Assets, whether

therein not misleading, with respect to the information contained in the IPO Registration Statement provided by J.Crew Group (whether in writing or orally) specifically for inclusion therein regarding the J.Crew Group, (ii) any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not

statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, with respect to all information in the IPO Registration Statement other
than with respect to the information provided by J.Crew Group for inclusion therein as referenced in Section 5.02(b) above or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or
alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, with respect to all information contained in the any IPO
Prospectus other than with respect to the information provided by J.Crew Group for inclusion therein as referenced in Section 5.02(b) above or (iii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, with respect to any
information provided by Madewell (whether in writing or orally) with respect to Madewell specifically for inclusion in J.Crew Group’s public SEC filings following the Distribution Time. 

Section 5.04. Procedures. (a) The party seeking indemnification under Section 5.02 or
Section 5.03 (the “Indemnified Party”) agrees to give prompt notice to the party against whom indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the assertion of any claim, or the
commencement of any suit, action or proceeding (each, a “Claim”) in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder and will provide the Indemnifying Party such information with respect thereto that the Indemnifying Party may
reasonably request. The failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent such failure shall have prejudiced the Indemnifying Party. 

  
 33 

 (b) The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Claim
asserted by any Third Party (“Third Party Claim”) and, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 5.04, if it so notifies the Indemnified Party no later than 30 days after receipt of the notice
described in Section 5.04(a), shall be entitled to control and appoint lead counsel for such defense, in each case at its expense. If the Indemnifying Party does not so notify the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party
shall have the right to defend or contest such Third Party Claim through counsel chosen by the Indemnified Party that is reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party, subject to the provisions of this Section 5.04. The
Indemnified Party shall provide the Indemnifying Party and such counsel with such information regarding such Third Party Claim as either of them may reasonably request (which request may be general or specific). 

(c) If the Indemnifying Party shall assume the control of the defense of any Third Party Claim in accordance with the provisions of
Section 5.04(b), (i) the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) before entering into any settlement of such Third Party Claim, if the
settlement does not release the Indemnified Party from all Liabilities and obligations with respect to such Third Party Claim or the settlement imposes injunctive or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or any of its related
Indemnitees or is otherwise materially prejudicial to any such Person and (ii) the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) the defense of such Third Party Claim and, at its own expense, to employ separate counsel
of its choice for such purpose; provided that in the event of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the applicable Indemnified Party, the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be at the
Indemnifying Party’s expense. 
 (d) Each party shall cooperate, and cause their respective Affiliates to cooperate, in the defense or
prosecution of any Third Party Claim and shall furnish or cause to be furnished such records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials or appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection
therewith. 
 (e) Each Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect any amounts available under insurance coverage,
or from any other Person alleged to be responsible, for any Liabilities payable under Section 5.02 or Section 5.03 and the reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith will be treated as
Liabilities subject to indemnification hereunder. 
 (f) If any Third Party Claim shall be brought against a member of each Group, then such
Action shall be deemed to be a J.Crew Assumed Action or a Madewell Assumed Action in accordance with Sections 4.02(a) or 4.02(b), to the extent applicable, and J.Crew, in the case of any J.Crew Assumed Action, or Madewell, in the case
of any Madewell Assumed Action, shall be deemed to be the Indemnifying Party for the purposes of this ARTICLE 5. In the event of any Action in which the Indemnifying Party is not also named defendant, at the request of either the Indemnified
Party or the Indemnifying Party, the parties will use commercially reasonable efforts to substitute the Indemnifying Party or its applicable Affiliate for the named defendant in the Action. 

Section 5.05. Calculation of Indemnification Amount. Any indemnification amount pursuant to Section 5.02
or Section 5.03 shall be paid net of any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party under applicable Third Party insurance policies or from any other Third Party alleged to be responsible therefor. If the
Indemnified Party receives any amounts under applicable Third Party insurance policies, or from any other Third Party alleged to be responsible 

  
 34 

 
for any Liabilities, subsequent to an indemnification payment by the Indemnifying Party in respect thereof, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for any
payment made by such Indemnifying Party in respect thereof up to the amount received by the Indemnified Party from such Third Party insurance policy or Third Party, as applicable. 

Section 5.06. Contribution. If for any reason the indemnification provided for in Section 5.02 or
Section 5.03 is unavailable to any Indemnified Party, or insufficient to hold it harmless, then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Liabilities
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Madewell Group, on the one hand, and the J.Crew Group, on the other hand, in connection with the conduct, statement or omission that resulted in such Liabilities. In case of
any Liabilities arising out of or related to information contained in the IPO Registration Statement (as amended or supplemented if J.Crew shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto), the relative fault of the Madewell Group, on the
one hand, and the J.Crew Group, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission of a material fact relates to
information supplied by J.Crew or any member of its Group, on the one hand, or Madewell or any member of its Group, on the other hand. 

Section 5.07. Non-Exclusivity of Remedies. Subject to
Section 5.01, the remedies provided for in this ARTICLE 5 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Party at law or in equity; provided
that the procedures set forth in this ARTICLE 5 shall be the exclusive procedures governing any indemnity action brought under this Agreement. 

Section 5.08. Survival of Indemnities. The rights and obligations of any Indemnified Party or Indemnifying Party under this
ARTICLE 5 shall survive the sale or other transfer of any party of any of its assets, business or liabilities. 
 Section 5.09.
Ancillary Agreements. If an indemnification claim is covered by the indemnification provisions of an Ancillary Agreement, the claim shall be made under the Ancillary Agreement to the extent applicable and the provisions thereof shall govern
such claim. In no event shall any party be entitled to double recovery from the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreement. 

ARTICLE 6 
 DISPUTE RESOLUTION

 Section 6.01. Disputes. Except as otherwise specifically provided in any Ancillary Agreement (the terms of which, to the
extent so provided therein, shall govern the resolution of “Disputes” as that term is defined in the applicable Ancillary Agreement), the procedures for discussion, negotiation and arbitration set forth in this ARTICLE 6 shall apply
to all disputes, controversies or claims (whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise) that may arise out of, relate to, arise under or in connection with, this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby (including, all actions taken in furtherance of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby on or prior to the Distribution Time), between or among the Madewell Group and the J.Crew Group (collectively, “Disputes”). 

  
 35 

 Section 6.02. Dispute Resolution. 

(a) Effective as of the Separation Date, Madewell and J.Crew shall form a committee (the “Dispute Resolution
Committee”) that will attempt to resolve all Disputes. The Dispute Resolution Committee shall initially consist of four (4) representatives, two (2) of which shall be designated by each party hereto. Subject to the
foregoing sentence, each party hereto may replace one or more of its representatives at any time upon written notice to the other party hereto. A reasonable number of additional representatives of each party who have been involved with matters
surrounding the Dispute may also participate in Dispute Resolution Committee meetings, subject to prior written notice being provided to the other party. 

(b) If a Dispute arises, no party hereto may take any formal legal action (such as seeking to terminate this Agreement, seeking arbitration in
accordance with Section 6.03, or instituting or seeking any judicial or other legal action, relief, or remedy with respect to or arising out of this Agreement) unless such party has first (i) delivered a notice of
dispute (the “Dispute Notice”) to all of the members of the Dispute Resolution Committee and (ii) complied with the terms of this ARTICLE 6; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to any
Disputes with respect to compliance with obligations with respect to confidentiality or preservation of privilege. The Dispute Resolution Committee shall meet no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day following delivery of the Dispute Notice (the
“Dispute Meeting”) and shall attempt to resolve each Dispute that is listed on the Dispute Notice. Each party hereto shall cause its designees on the Dispute Resolution Committee to negotiate in good faith to resolve all
Disputes in a timely manner. If by the end of the twentieth (20th) Business Day following the Dispute Meeting the Dispute Resolution Committee has not resolved all of the Disputes (the “Resolution Failure Date”), the parties
shall proceed to arbitrate the unresolved Disputes (“Unresolved Disputes”) in accordance with Section 6.03. 

Section 6.03. Arbitration of Unresolved Disputes. 

(a) In the event any Dispute is not finally resolved pursuant to Section 6.02(a), and unless the parties have
mutually agreed to mediate or use some other form of alternative dispute resolution in an attempt to resolve the Dispute, then such Dispute may be submitted to be finally resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules
of the American Arbitration Association as then in effect (the “AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules”). 

(b) Without waiving its rights to any remedy under this Agreement and without first complying with the provisions of
Section 6.02(a), either party may seek any interim or provisional relief that is necessary to protect the rights or property of that party either (i) before any federal or state court located in the state of New York,
(ii) before a special arbitrator, as provided for under the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules, or (iii) before the arbitral tribunal established hereunder. 

(c) Unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing, any Dispute to be decided in arbitration hereunder shall be decided (i) before a
sole arbitrator if the amount in dispute, inclusive of all claims and counterclaims, totals less than $3 million; or (ii) by an arbitral tribunal of three (3) arbitrators if (A) the amount in dispute, inclusive of all claims and
counterclaims, is equal to or greater than $3 million or (B) either party elects in writing to have 

  
 36 

 
such dispute decided by three (3) arbitrators when one of the parties believes, in its sole judgment, the issue could have significant precedential value; provided, however,
that the party that makes a request referred to the in foregoing clause (B) shall solely bear the increased costs and expenses associated with a panel of three (3) arbitrators (i.e., the additional costs and expenses associated with the
two (2) additional arbitrators). 
 (d) If the arbitration shall be before an arbitral tribunal of three (3) arbitrators, the panel
of three (3) arbitrators shall be chosen as follows: (i) upon the written demand of either party and within ten (10) Business Days from the date of receipt of such demand, each party shall name an arbitrator selected by such party in
its sole and absolute discretion; and (ii) the two (2) party-appointed arbitrators shall thereafter, within twenty (20) Business Days from the date on which the second of the two (2) arbitrators was named, name a third,
independent arbitrator who shall act as chairperson of the arbitral tribunal. In the event that either party fails to name an arbitrator within ten (10) Business Days from the date of receipt of a written demand to do so, then upon written
application by either party, that arbitrator shall be appointed pursuant to the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules. In the event that the two (2) party-appointed arbitrators fail to appoint the third, independent arbitrator within twenty
(20) Business Days from the date on which the second of the two (2) arbitrators was named, then upon written application by either party, the third, independent arbitrator shall be appointed pursuant to AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules. If
the arbitration shall be before a sole independent arbitrator, then the sole independent arbitrator shall be appointed by agreement of the parties within fifteen (15) Business Days from the date of receipt of written demand of either party. If
the parties cannot agree to a sole independent arbitrator, then upon written application by either party, the sole independent arbitrator shall be appointed pursuant to AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules. If the parties have agreed upon a single
arbitrator, then each party hereto shall have a one-time right during such arbitration to remove such arbitrator for any reason (in which case the parties shall then
re-select their arbitrator(s) as provided above). 
 (e) All arbitrators selected pursuant to this
Section shall be practicing attorneys with at least five (5) years’ experience with the technology and/or law applicable to the technology, services or transactions relevant to the Dispute. 

(f) The place of arbitration shall be New York, New York. Along with the arbitrator(s) appointed, the parties shall agree to a mutually
convenient date and time to conduct the arbitration, but in no event shall the final hearing(s) be scheduled more than nine (9) months from submission of the Dispute to arbitration unless the parties agree otherwise in writing. 

(g) The arbitral tribunal shall have the right to award, on an interim basis, or include in the final award, any relief that it deems proper in
the circumstances, including money damages (with interest on unpaid amounts from the due date), injunctive relief (including specific performance) and only to the extent expressly permitted by Section 6.02(a),
attorneys’ fees and costs; provided that the arbitral tribunal shall not award any relief not specifically requested by the parties. Upon constitution of the arbitral tribunal following any grant of interim relief by a special arbitrator
or court pursuant to Section 6.03(b), the tribunal may affirm or disaffirm that relief, and the parties shall seek modification or rescission of the order entered by the special arbitrator or court as necessary to accord
with the tribunal’s decision. 

  
 37 

 (h) Neither party shall be bound by Rule 13 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure or any
analogous Law or provision in the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules governing deadlines for compulsory counterclaims; rather, each party may only bring a counterclaim within sixty (60) days after the initial submission of the Dispute to
arbitration (subject to any applicable statutes of limitation). 
 (i) So long as either party has a timely claim to assert, the agreement to
arbitrate Disputes set forth in this Section 6.03 shall continue in full force and effect subsequent to, and notwithstanding the completion, expiration or termination of, this Agreement. 

(j) The interim or final award in an arbitration pursuant to this Section 6.03 shall be conclusive and binding upon
the parties, and a party obtaining a final award may enter judgment upon such award in any court of competent jurisdiction. 
 (k) It is the
intent of the parties that the agreement to arbitrate Disputes set forth in this Section 6.03 shall be interpreted and applied broadly such that all reasonable doubts as to arbitrability of a Dispute shall be decided in
favor of arbitration. 
 (l) The parties agree that any Dispute submitted to arbitration shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted
in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, and, except as otherwise provided in this ARTICLE 6 or mutually agreed to in writing by the parties, the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq., shall govern any
arbitration between the parties pursuant to this Section 6.03. 
 (m) Subject to
Section 6.03(c)(ii)(B), each party shall bear its own fees, costs and expenses and shall bear an equal share of the costs and expenses of the arbitration, including the fees, costs and expenses of the three
(3) arbitrators; provided that the arbitral tribunal may award the prevailing party its reasonable fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), if it finds that there was no good-faith basis for the position taken by the other
party in the arbitration. 
 Section 6.04. Continuity of Service and Performance. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the
parties hereto shall continue to provide undisputed services and honor all other undisputed commitments under this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement during the course of dispute resolution pursuant to the provisions of this ARTICLE 6.

amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment, by Madewell and J.Crew, or in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective. 

(b) No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any

provided by Applicable Law. 
 Section 7.03. Expenses. Madewell and J.Crew shall each bear the costs and expenses incurred or

otherwise agreed by the parties in writing. 
 Section 7.04. Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided that neither party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement
without the consent of the other party hereto. If any party or any of its successors or permitted assigns (i) shall consolidate with or merge into 

  
 39 

 
any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) shall transfer all or substantially all of its properties and

Section 7.05. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Delaware, without regard to the conflicts of law rules of such state. 
 Section 7.06. Counterparts; Effectiveness; Third-Party
Beneficiaries. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when
each party hereto shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by the other party hereto. Until and unless each party has received a counterpart hereof signed by the other party hereto, this Agreement shall have no effect and no party shall have
any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or written agreement or other communication). Except for Section 4.07 and the indemnification and release provisions of ARTICLE 5, neither this
Agreement nor any provision hereof is intended to confer any rights, benefits, remedies, obligations, or liabilities hereunder upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. 

Section 7.07. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Separation Documents constitute the entire understanding of the
parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. No representation,
inducement, promise, understanding, condition or warranty not set forth herein or in the other Separation Documents has been made or relied upon by any party hereto or any member of their Group with respect to the transactions contemplated by the
Separation Documents. Without limiting Section 5.09 and subject to Section 7.08, in the event and to the extent that there shall be a conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the
provisions of any Ancillary Agreement, the Ancillary Agreement shall control with respect to the subject matter thereof, and this Agreement shall control with respect to all other matters. 

Section 7.08. Tax Matters. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, this Agreement shall not govern Tax matters (including
any administrative, procedural and related matters thereto), which shall be exclusively governed by the Tax Matters Agreement and the Employee Matters Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent of any inconsistency between this Agreement
and either of the Tax Matters Agreement or Employee Matters Agreement, the terms of the Tax Matters Agreement or Employee Matters Agreement, as the case may be, shall govern. 

Section 7.09. Termination. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Board of Directors of Madewell
may, in its sole discretion and without the approval of J.Crew or any other Person, at any time prior to the Distribution terminate this Agreement and/or abandon the Distribution, whether or not it has theretofore approved this Agreement and/or the
Distribution. In the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and neither party nor any of its directors or officers shall have any liability or further obligation to the other
party or any other Person by reason of this Agreement.

	 	(i)	 Service Recipient shall prepare a written proposal for the Different or Additional Service, including a

 6 

	 	(ii)	 Upon receipt of a written proposal for a Different or Additional Service, Service Provider shall promptly send
to Service Recipient a written, good faith response in compliance with this Section 2.3 indicating whether Service Provider agrees to provide the different or additional services and, if so, (a) any proposed changes to

provision of such Service or Sub-Service, as applicable, is prohibited or restricted by Applicable Law, violates Service Provider’s existing contractual arrangements, puts Service Provider’s or its
Affiliates’ existing plans or benefits at risk, or would otherwise have a material adverse effect on a member of the J.Crew Group; or (iii) to the extent such modification is in connection with the relocation, transfer, termination,
retirement or resignation of Service Provider’s employees; provided, however, that in each case, (i)–(iii): (x) Service Provider will provide written notice of the need for modification and the details of such modification to
Service Recipient as soon as reasonably practicable; (y) Service Provider will use commercially reasonable efforts to limit the disruption to the operation of the Service Recipient’s business caused by such modification; and (z) if
such modification is to be made following the end of Year 1, Service Recipient may terminate such Service or Sub-Service, as applicable, immediately upon notice to Service Provider, provided that
Service Recipient shall be liable for, and shall pay to Service Provider, all fees accrued in respect of such Service or Sub-Service, as applicable, through the date of termination of the Service or Sub-Service, as applicable.

	2.4	 Duration of Services. Beginning on the Effective Date (unless otherwise set forth in Schedule
2.1(a)), upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, Service Provider shall provide or cause to be provided to Service Recipient each Sub-Service until the earliest to occur, with
respect to each such Sub-Service, of (a) the expiration of the period of duration for such Sub-Service as set forth in Schedule 2.1(a) (the “Service
End Date”) or (b) the date on which this Agreement is terminated under Article 8; provided, however, to the extent that Service Provider’s ability to provide a
Sub-Service is dependent on the continuation of any other Sub-Service and such dependence has been made known to Service Recipient in writing, Service Provider’s
obligation to provide such dependent Sub-Service shall terminate automatically with the termination of such supporting Sub-Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and
except for the Services set forth on Schedule 2.1(a)(●)4 and Schedule 2.1(a)(●)5 for
which no extension shall be allowed, Service Recipient shall have the right to request that Service Provider provide a Service or Sub-Service for an additional period of time, such additional period
terminating no later than the end of Year 3 (“Service Extension”). Any request for a Service Extension by Service Recipient shall be pursuant to the following process: (i) Service Recipient shall submit a written request to
Service Provider and the Steering Committee specifying the Service or Sub-Service to be extended and the proposed time period of extension no less than ninety (90) days prior to the end of the duration of
such Service or Sub-Service, as applicable, as set forth in Schedule 2.1(a), (ii) upon receipt of a written proposal for a Service Extension, Service Provider shall consider such request in good faith
and promptly send to Service Recipient a written, good faith response indicating whether Service Provider agrees to provide the Service Extension and any proposed changes to the Service Extension request and (iii) if Service Provider agrees to
provide the Service Extension as contemplated by this Section 2.4, the Parties shall amend Schedule 2.1(a) hereto to document the relevant Service Extension and shall obtain all necessary internal approvals prior to
the execution of such amendment and any such Service Extension shall be deemed part of the Services. For any Service Extension that occurs during Year 2, Service Recipient shall pay the applicable Service Fees set forth in Schedule 2.1(a),
including any Out-of-Pocket Expenses, in accordance with Section 4.2. For any Service Extension that occurs during Year 3, Service Recipient
shall pay Service Provider (i) one hundred and fifty percent (150%) of the sum of the applicable Fixed Service Fees and Variable Service Fees and (ii) any
Out-of-Pocket Expenses and Working Capital Expenses in accordance with Section 4.2. All costs to Service Provider arising from any adverse or
detrimental tax implication or consequence arising from any Service Extension shall be fully paid by Service Recipient to Service Provider within fifteen (15) days of a determination of such adverse or detrimental tax implication or
consequence. 

  

	2.5	 Standards of Service. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or as set forth in
Schedule 2.4 which contains service level criteria with respect to certain Services, Service Provider shall perform the Services to be provided under this Agreement in a manner reasonably equivalent to the manner in which, and at the overall
standards of 

  

	4 	 Note to Draft: To be populated with a reference to the benefits Services.

quality and availability at which, such Services were provided by or on behalf of the J.Crew Business during the twelve (12) months prior to the Effective Date. If a Service was provided
during the twelve (12) months prior to the Effective Date by a third party, and such Service will continue to be provided by such third party on behalf of Service Provider, Service Provider shall use its reasonable efforts so that the quality
and availability of such Service is provided to Service Recipient in a manner reasonably consistent with the applicable agreement pursuant to which such third party provided the Service to the Business during the twelve (12) months prior to the
Effective Date. No Service Provider shall be required to perform any obligation under this Agreement to the extent that due to a change in Applicable Law after the date of this Agreement provision would materially increase or change such Service
Provider’s burden or the burden of any applicable Affiliate of the Service Provider with respect to compliance with Applicable Laws, unless the Service Recipient agrees to bear all incremental costs resulting from the increased compliance
burden associated with providing such Services or that would result in the breach or violation of any Applicable Law or third party contract or agreement. 

  

	2.6	 Third Party Service Providers. Service Provider shall have the right to designate an Affiliate or a
qualified Third Party Service Provider (“Third Party Service Provider”) to provide the applicable Services or Sub-Services; provided that Service Provider shall take reasonable measures
to ensure that each such Third Party Service Provider complies with the terms of this Agreement in relation to the provision of Services or Sub-Services including, if applicable,
Section 6.6. 

  

	2.7	 Third Parties. Without limiting Section 6.1, in the event any third party
consent, waiver or approval is required for a Service Provider or its designees to provide any Services or Sub-Services and such consent, waiver or approval is not obtained, the Parties shall cooperate in good
faith to identify a commercially reasonable alternative to such Services or Sub-Services, if available, including by referring the matter to the Steering Committee. Except as set forth in
Section 6.1, neither a Service Provider nor its Affiliates shall be required to obtain any consent, waiver or approval of any third party in order to provide any Services. 

 

	2.8	 Information. If Service Provider requires information within the control of Service Recipient to perform
any Services, Service Recipient shall promptly provide such information, or cause such information to be provided, to Service Provider. Such information shall be subject to Section 10.1. The Parties shall follow mutually
agreed upon procedures for the collection and transmission of the information to be processed pursuant to the Services. Without limiting the generality of Section 14.14 and subject to Article 6, if either Party or
its Affiliates, Subsidiaries or Personnel, reasonably require information or materials within the control of the other Party to perform or receive the Services, such Party shall promptly provide, or cause to be provided, such information or
materials to the other Party. The transmission, storage and use of such information and materials shall be subject to Section 10.1 and all applicable Protocols. During the term of this Agreement, subject to
Section 10.1 and all applicable Protocols, Service Provider shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to make its and their Personnel reasonably available to the Madewell

other resources) owned by Service Provider or its Affiliates and used by them in connection with the provision of Services.

 Each invoice (“Invoice”) shall be accompanied by reasonable documentation supporting each of

their respective due date(s) shall accrue one-and-a-half percent (1.5%) interest per month until paid in full. 

 

	 	(b)	 Except as mutually agreed to in writing by the Parties and as set forth in
Section 2.2(a) of this Agreement, no Party or any of its Affiliates shall have any right of set-off or other similar rights with respect to (i) any amounts received pursuant to
this Agreement or (ii) any other amounts claimed to be owed to the other Party or any of its Affiliates arising out of this Agreement. 

  

	 	(c)	 If the provision of Services requires an
out-of-pocket expense attributable solely to Service Recipient to be paid by Service Provider which is not included in the Fixed Service Fee, the Variable Service Fee or
the Working Capital Expenses (an “Out-of-Pocket Expense”), the Service Provider may invoice the Service Recipient for reimbursement in accordance with
the procedures set forth in this Section 4.2, which amount shall be included in the subsequent Invoice. Notwithstanding the 

  
 12 

	 	
foregoing, if provision of any Service or Sub-Service requires an
out-of-pocket expense to be paid by Service Provider, at Service Provider’s sole discretion, Service Provider may invoice Service Recipient in advance for such
expense, and Service Recipient shall promptly pay such invoiced amount in advance of Service Provider’s performance of such Service or Sub-Service. 

 

	4.3	 Reduction of Fees. If Service Provider ceases to perform any particular Service or Sub-Service pursuant to a request made by Service Recipient under Section 8.3 and Service Provider is no longer incurring a cost for such Services or
Sub-Services, thereafter the applicable monthly Service Fee shall be reduced to an amount equal to the fees for those Services or Sub-Services which are still being
provided. If the Parties are unable to agree upon the applicable reduction in fees for the applicable reduced Services or Sub-Services, then such failure to agree shall be considered a dispute between the
Parties subject to Section 3.5 and Section 14.2 and Service Provider shall, upon the written request of Service Recipient, furnish to Service Recipient reasonable documentation required to substantiate the
proposed reduction. 

  

	4.4	 Taxes. 

  

	 	(a)	 All charges and fees to be paid to Service Provider under this Agreement are exclusive of any and all sales,
use, transfer, value-added, goods or services taxes or similar gross-receipts-based taxes (“Sales and Services Taxes”) required by Applicable Law to be collected from Service Recipient or which may be assessed on the provision of
the Services hereunder. If any Sales and Services Taxes are assessed on the provision of any of the Services under this Agreement, (i) Service Provider will deliver to Service Recipient an invoice (or other valid and customary documentation)
reflecting such Sales and Services Taxes in accordance with Applicable Law, (ii) Service Recipient will pay to Service Provider the amount shown as due on such invoice in accordance with Section 4.2, and
(iii) Service Provider will remit such amount to the applicable Tax Authority in accordance with Applicable Law. Service Provider shall be responsible for any Sales and Services Taxes (including any deficiency, interest and penalties) imposed
as a result of a failure to timely remit any Sales and Services Taxes to the applicable Tax Authority to the extent Service Recipient timely remits such Sales and Services Taxes to Service Provider or Service Recipient’s failure to do so
results from Service Provider’s failure to timely charge or provide notice of such Sales and Services Taxes to Service Recipient. 

  

	 	(b)	 Service Recipient shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amount otherwise payable pursuant to this
Agreement such amounts as Service Recipient is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of any such payment under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the
extent that amounts are so withheld, Service Recipient shall (i) gross up the amount payable such that Service Provider receives an amount equal to the amount of the Service Fee in respect of that Service it would have received in the absence
of such withholding, and (ii) submit to Service Provider evidence of payment of any such withholding Tax to the Tax Authorities. 

  
 13 

	 	(c)	 The Parties will cooperate with each other in determining the extent to which any Tax described in this
Section 4.4 is due and owing under the circumstances and in minimizing any such Tax, including by making available to each other any resale certificate, information regarding out-of-state use of materials, services or sale, and other exemption certificates or information reasonably requested by either Party. Each Party agrees to provide the other Party such information and data as
reasonably requested from time to time, and to fully cooperate with the other Party, in connection with (i) the reporting of any Sales and Services Taxes, (ii) any audit relating to any Sales and Services Taxes, or (iii) any
assessment, refund, claim or legal proceeding relating to any Sales and Services Taxes. Each Party shall promptly notify the other Party of any deficiency claim or similar notice by a Tax Authority with respect to any Sales and Services Taxes.

shall conduct such audit during normal business hours and in such a manner so as to minimize disruptions to Service Provider. 

  

	4.6	 Accounting and Authority. The Parties acknowledge and agree that with respect to Services, including
those relating to bookkeeping support, finance/audit clerical (non-decision making) services, technology support and telephone services, regarding each, Service Provider’s role is to provide Services on

bookkeeping support, finance/audit clerical (non-decision making) services, technology support, and telephone services and in Service Provider’s provision of all Services, Service Provider is not making
any decisions or commitments on behalf of Service Recipient. Service Provider shall not be responsible for any losses or mistakes in the provision of Services which result from any inaccurate or insufficient information given to Service Provider.
Notwithstanding this Section 4.6, to the extent any Services involve the preparation of a tax return, the economic benefits and risks associated with such Services and authority for all decisions or commitments relating to
such Services shall be governed by the Tax Matters Agreement. 

 5. MAINTENANCE. 

 

	5.1	 Maintenance. Service Provider shall have the right to temporarily shut down the operation of any Systems
or facilities providing any Service or Sub-Service whenever, in Service Provider’s judgment, reasonably exercised, such action is necessary or advisable for general maintenance or emergency purposes. With
respect to Services or Sub-Services 

  
 14 

	 	
dependent on the operation of such Systems and facilities, Service Provider shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder to provide such Services or
Sub-Services during the period that such Systems or facilities are so shut down in compliance with this Agreement but shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the duration of any such shutdown.

respective Personnel such access in accordance with Section 6.3 and this Section 6.1, as applicable. If either Party grants the other Party access to any Required Technology, or if either Party is
otherwise granted access to any of the other Party’s Systems in connection with provision or receipt of the Services, the accessing Party shall comply with all applicable system security policies, procedures and requirements as communicated to
the accessing Party in advance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Party shall be required to pay any fees or other payments or incur any obligations to enable the other Party to obtain any license to use Required Technology; provided,
however, if and to the extent requested by a Party, the other Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the first Party in its efforts to obtain licenses (or other appropriate rights) to use, duplicate or distribute, as
necessary, any Systems necessary for such Party to provide or receive the applicable Services. 

  

	6.2	 Protection of Data. In this Section 6.2, the terms “personal information” and

 15 

	 	
restrictions on the acquisition of, access to, use, maintenance and disclosure of Protected Data imposed by the other Party or by Applicable Law, (f) notify the other Party in writing as

that is consistent with the other Party’s practices and policies, upon reasonable advanced written notice of such practices and policies. To the extent required by applicable Data Protection Laws or as deemed necessary by the Parties, the
Parties (or their respective Affiliates) will enter into additional agreements with respect to the processing of Protected Data.

are specifically authorized to have access to the Systems of the other Party or its Third Party Service Provider gain such access, and shall prevent unauthorized access, use, destruction, alteration, or loss of information contained therein, and
shall notify its personnel regarding the restrictions set forth in this Agreement. At all times when a Party is accessing the Systems owned or controlled by the other Party pursuant to this Agreement, such Party shall, and shall cause its
Affiliates, Representatives and/or Third Party Service Provider, as the case may be, to, use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with the policies and procedures of the other Party concerning health, safety and security, to the extent such
policies and procedures are communicated to such Party in advance. 

  

	6.4	 Access to Facilities. If either Party, its Affiliates or its Personnel require access to the facilities
of the other Party or its Affiliates (collectively, the “Facilities”) in order to receive or perform Services, then the Party controlling such access shall reasonably allow the other Party, its Affiliates or their respective
Personnel such access in accordance with this Section 6.4 and Section 6.1, as applicable. The Party to whom such access is given shall (a) limit such access to those of its and its Affiliates’ Personnel who
reasonably require such access in connection with this Agreement, (b) advise the other Party in writing in advance of such access of the name of each such Personnel who shall require such access, (c) follow, and cause its

Agreement, seeking arbitration in accordance with Section 6.0314.2(d), or instituting or seeking any judicial or other legal action, relief, or remedy with respect to or arising out of this Agreement) unless such

the Steering Committee and (ii) complied with the terms of this Section 14.2; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to any Disputes
with respect to compliance with obligations with respect to confidentiality or preservation of privilege. The Steering Committee shall meet no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day following delivery of the Dispute Notice (the “Dispute
Meeting”) and shall attempt to resolve each Dispute that is listed on the Dispute Notice. Each Party shall cause its designees on the Steering Committee to negotiate in good faith to resolve all Disputes in a timely manner. A reasonable
number of additional representatives of each Party who have been involved with matters surrounding the Dispute may also participate in the Dispute Meeting, subject to prior written notice being provided to the other Party. If by the end of the

	 	(d)	 In the event any Dispute is not finally resolved pursuant to Section 14.2(c), and

	 	(e)	 Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Parties shall continue to provide undisputed services and honor all

	14.3	 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except for the indemnification provisions in Article 12, this
Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties specifically named in the preamble to this Agreement and their permitted successors and assigns, neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof is intended to confer any rights, benefits, remedies,
obligations, or liabilities hereunder upon any Person other than the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. 

  

	14.4	 Assignment. Neither Party may assign this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations hereunder,
without the prior written consent of the other Party, except that Service Provider may assign any or all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (a) to an Affiliate, so long as Service Provider will remain liable to Service Recipient
for the performance of Service Provider’s obligations hereunder or (b) in connection with a sale or disposition of any assets or lines of business of Service Provider or its Affiliates; provided that in the case of (b), the
transferee of such assets shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement as if named as a “Party” hereto. No assignment hereunder shall be deemed effective until the assignee shall have executed and delivered an
instrument in writing reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the non-assigning Party, pursuant to which the assignee assumes all of the obligations of the applicable assigning Party hereunder. Any
purported assignment in violation of this Section shall be void. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Parties and the name of a Party shall be deemed to include the names of its successors and permitted
assigns. 

  
 26

Sub-Service may be suspended immediately by Service Provider to the extent made impossible by any event or condition beyond the reasonable control of Service Provider, including acts of God, fire, flood, labor
or trade disturbance, war, riots, civil commotion, compliance in good faith with the requirements of any Applicable Law or order of any Governmental Authority (whether or not it later proves to be invalid), unavailability of materials, or other
event or condition whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing (a “Force Majeure Event”). Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, Service Provider may, and without any required prior
written notice, suspend the performance of any or all of the Services or Sub-Services it provides as to which a Force Majeure Event relates. Service Provider shall give prompt notice to Service Recipient of
the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event giving rise to any suspension of a Service or Sub-Service and of the nature and anticipated duration of such Force Majeure Event. Upon the occurrence of a Force Majeure
Event, the Parties shall cooperate with each other to find reasonable alternative commercial means and methods for the provision of the suspended Service or Sub-Service, if reasonably necessary.

  

	14.6	 Severability. If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be declared
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained in this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby 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 declaration, the Parties shall modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an
acceptable manner so that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible. 

  

	14.7	 Amendment; No Waiver. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such
amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment, by Service Provider and Service Recipient, or in the case of a waiver, by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No failure or delay by any Party in
exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights
and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Applicable Law. 

  

	14.8	 Entire Agreement. Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Separation Documents, the Separation

to the subject matter of the Separation Documents. 

  
 27 

	14.9	 Independent Parties. This Agreement shall not be deemed to create any partnership, joint venture,
amalgamation, or agency relationship between the Parties. Each Party shall act hereunder as an independent contractor and not as the agent of the other Party in performing the Services, maintaining control over its employees, its subcontractors and
their employees and complying with all withholding of income at source requirements, whether federal, state, local or foreign. No employee of Service Provider providing Services shall be considered an employee of Service Recipient or any of its
Affiliates.

construction or interpretation hereof. 

  

	14.12	 Counterparts; Facsimile and Electronic Signatures. This Agreement may be signed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each Party hereto shall have received a counterpart hereof
signed by the other Party hereto. Until and unless each Party has received a counterpart hereof signed by the other Party hereto, this Agreement shall have no effect and no Party shall have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any
other oral or written agreement or other communication). 

  

	14.13	 Precedence of Agreements. Each Schedule attached to or referenced in this Agreement is hereby
incorporated into and shall form a part of this Agreement by reference; provided that the terms contained in such Schedule shall only apply with respect to the Service(s) provided under that Schedule. In the event of a conflict between the
terms contained in an individual Schedule and the terms in the body of this Agreement, the terms in the individual Schedule shall take precedence with respect to the Service(s) under such Schedule. 

 

	14.14	 Mutual Cooperation. Each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the other
Party in connection with the performance of the Services hereunder and to cause each of their respective employees and contractors to reasonably cooperate to the extent required for effective delivery of the Services; provided that such
cooperation shall not unreasonably disrupt the normal operations of such Party; and provided that this Section 14.14 shall not require such Party to incur any out-of-pocket expense, unless and except as expressly provided in this Agreement or otherwise agreed to in writing by the Parties.

the appropriate governmental authorities of compensation earned by their respective employees after the Benefits Transition Date.

Section 5.05. Personnel Records. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Separation Agreement, to the
extent permitted by applicable Law, copies of all records created prior to the Separation Date (or such later date of transfer of employment, as applicable) set forth in the personnel files of the Transferring Employees (including, but not limited

 d) Separation Taxes. Any liability for Separation Taxes, including, for the avoidance

to Madewell pursuant to this Section 3(d) (without compensating J.Crew for such use of Transferred Tax Attributes). On the Distribution Date, Madewell shall make (or cause to be made) a payment of $[●], the estimate
of the amount of Separation Taxes (“Separation Taxes Estimate”), to J.Crew to be retained in a segregated non-interest bearing account for Madewell’s benefit (the “Segregated
Account”), until the funds therein are required to be released (i) in the case of any Separation Tax to be paid by Madewell, to Madewell to make such payment to the applicable Taxing Authority, which release shall be at least two
(2) Business Days prior to the due date of any such Separation Tax or (ii) in the case of any Separation Tax to be paid by J.Crew (but economically borne by Madewell), to J.Crew when required to be paid to the applicable Taxing Authority.
J.Crew shall reflect the Segregated Account on its balance sheet as a restricted cash account until such time that the funds are paid or payable. No later than thirty (30) days following the Distribution Date, J.Crew shall prepare (or cause to
be prepared) and deliver to Madewell, a good faith calculation of the final amount of Separation Taxes (including copies of any supporting worksheets) (“Actual Separation Taxes Calculation”) for Madewell’s review, comment and
approval (such approval not to be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld). If within fifteen (15) days following delivery of the Actual Separation Taxes Calculation, Madewell notifies J.Crew in writing that Madewell disputes the amount
of the Actual Separation Taxes Calculation, J.Crew and Madewell shall cooperate in good faith to resolve such dispute. In the event that the Actual Separation Taxes Calculation is greater or less than the amount of the Separation Taxes Estimate,
Madewell shall make a payment of the shortfall to J.Crew (to be deposited into the Segregated Account), or J.Crew shall make a payment of the excess to Madewell (out of the funds in the Segregated Account), as applicable, in each case, promptly
following the resolution of the Actual Separation Taxes Calculation. Any dispute with respect to the Separation Taxes Estimate or the Actual Separation Taxes Calculation that cannot be timely resolved between J.Crew and Madewell shall be addressed
according to the procedures set forth in Section 17; provided, however, that any dispute with respect to the Actual Separation Taxes Calculation shall be resolved prior to the date on which either Party is
required to submit to the other Party a draft of any Tax Return in respect of a Taxable period including the Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4. 

e) Transfer Taxes for Combined Tax Returns in Respect of Pre-Distribution Periods.
Notwithstanding the foregoing in Section 3(a), any liability for a Tax reported, or required to be reported, on any Combined Tax Return in respect of a Pre-Distribution Period,
which Tax would qualify as a Transfer Tax but for the fact that such Tax did not arise in connection with the Separation, the Distribution or any Separation Transaction, shall be allocated between J.Crew and Madewell such that (i) J.Crew is
allocated such Taxes that arose or resulted from any transaction or business to the extent engaged in by any member or members of the J.Crew Group, and (ii) Madewell is allocated such Taxes that arose or resulted from any transaction or
business to the extent engaged in by any member or members of the Madewell Group. For the avoidance of doubt, any Taxes which would qualify as Transfer Taxes but for the fact that such Tax did not arise in connection with the Separation, the
Distribution or any Separation Transaction (i) reported, or required to be reported, on a Separate Tax Return shall be governed by Section 3(b) and (ii) not required to be reported on a Tax Return shall be
governed by Section 3(c). 
 f) Straddle Periods. All Taxes in respect of a Straddle Period shall be
allocated in accordance with the Closing of the Books Method; provided, however, that any Combined Tax Returns in respect of the Taxable year ending January 2020 will be governed by Section 3(a). 

Section 4. Preparation and Filing of Tax Returns. 

a) Combined Tax Returns due after the Distribution Date. J.Crew, in consultation with Madewell, shall prepare, or cause to be prepared,
any Combined Tax Return that is due after the Distribution Date; provided that J.Crew shall submit to Madewell a draft of any such Combined Tax Return for review and approval (such approval not to be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or
withheld) sufficiently in advance of the due date for filing such Combined Tax Return (and in any case, no later than thirty (30) days prior to the date such Combined Tax Return is required to be filed). Madewell shall timely file any such
Combined Tax Return by the due date for filing such Combined Tax Return (for the avoidance of doubt, taking into account any valid extensions). Each member of the Combined Group shall execute and file such consents, elections and other documents as
may be required, appropriate or otherwise reasonably requested by J.Crew in connection with the filing of such Combined Tax Returns. 

  
 5 

 b) Separate Tax Returns. J.Crew shall prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and
filed, any J.Crew Separate Tax Return, and Madewell shall prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, any Madewell Separate Tax Return. In the case of any J.Crew Separate Tax Return or Madewell Separate Tax Return in respect of a Taxable
period that (i) includes the Distribution Date, or (ii) ends prior to, but such Separate Tax Return is due after, the Distribution Date: J.Crew or Madewell, as applicable, shall submit such J.Crew Separate Tax Return or Madewell Separate
Tax Return, as applicable, to the other Party for review, comment and approval (such approval not to be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld) sufficiently in advance of the due date for filing such Separate Tax Return (and in any case, no
later than thirty (30) days prior to the date such Separate Tax Return is required to be filed). 
 c) Transfer Tax Returns. The
Company required under Applicable Tax Law to file any Tax Returns in respect of Transfer Taxes (other than any Transfer Taxes reported, or required to be reported, on any Combined Tax Return, which shall be governed by
Section 4(a)), if any, shall prepare and timely file (or cause to be prepared and timely filed) such Tax Returns; provided that if such Company is J.Crew or any of its Subsidiaries, J.Crew shall submit to Madewell a
draft of any such Separate Tax Return for review, comment and approval (such approval not to be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld) sufficiently in advance of the due date for filing such Separate Tax Return (and in any case, no later
than thirty (30) days prior to the date such Separate Tax Return is required to be filed). 
 d) Amended Returns. Except as
otherwise required by Applicable Law, (i) no Party shall file any amended Combined Tax Return in respect of any Pre-Distribution Period, and (ii) J.Crew shall not file any amended J.Crew Separate Tax
Return that reflects Separation Taxes, in each case, without the prior written approval (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) of the other Party, and the preparation and filing of such amended Combined Tax Return shall be
governed by Section 4(a). 
 e) Preparation in Accordance with Past Practices. Any Combined Tax Return with
respect to Pre-Distribution Periods shall be prepared in accordance with past practices, accounting methods, elections or conventions (“Past Practices”) used by the Combined Group in Pre-Distribution Periods to the extent permitted by Applicable Law. 
 f) Payment of Taxes. Madewell
shall make a timely payment (or cause a timely payment to be made) to the proper Taxing Authority of the Taxes shown as due on any Tax Return for which a member of the Madewell Group is responsible for filing under this
Section 4. J.Crew shall make a timely payment (or cause a timely payment to be made) to the proper Taxing Authority of the Tax shown as due on any Tax Return for which a member of the J.Crew Group is responsible for filing
under this Section 4. To the extent all or a portion of the Tax shown due is allocated to a Party under Section 3 other than the Party responsible for making the payment pursuant to this
Section 4(f), the Party that bears such Tax (or portion thereof) under Section 3 shall remit such amount to the Party making the payment (for payment to the Taxing Authority) no later than five
(5) calendar days prior to the due date for filing the applicable Tax Return; provided that the Party required to remit such amount has received from the Party responsible for making the payment written notice of the amount which has
been allocated pursuant to Section 3; provided further that written notice shall be deemed to have been received in the case of any Tax Return requiring review and approval by the
non-filing Party under Section 4, and any payments by Madewell to J.Crew in respect of Separation Taxes pursuant to clause (ii) of Section 3(d) shall be
considered to satisfy the obligations under this Section 4(f) of a Party bearing a Tax to remit the amount of the Tax to the Party responsible for making the payment to a Taxing Authority. 

Section 5. Apportionment of Tax Attributes and Estimated Taxes Paid.  

a) Apportionment of Tax Attributes. Madewell shall in good faith, based on information reasonably available to it, provide to J. Crew in
writing for approval (such approval not to be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld), no later than [●] following the Distribution, an estimate of the portion of any consolidated, combined or unitary Tax Attributes which Madewell
expects to be allocated to the members of the J.Crew Group under Applicable Tax Law. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Distribution occurs and in no event later than [●], Madewell shall submit to J.Crew for approval (such approval
not to be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld), written notice of any adjustments to the previously delivered estimates of the portion of any Tax Attributes to be allocated to the J.Crew Group. If J.Crew and Madewell cannot agree on an
allocation, the Parties shall resolve their disagreement pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 17. Each of Madewell and J. Crew agrees to prepare all Tax Returns in accordance with the finally determined
allocation of such items except to the extent adjusted as a result of a Tax Proceeding. 

  
 6 

 b) Apportionment of Estimated Taxes Paid. If and to the extent any member of the
J.Crew Group or any member of the Madewell Group makes or has made a payment to a Taxing Authority of any estimated Taxes with respect to any Combined Tax Return in respect of a Pre-Distribution Period, such
payment shall be allocated to the Parties in accordance with the allocation described in Section 3(a). 
 Section 6.
Payment for Certain Tax Attributes. 
 a) Reduction of Taxes Payable by Madewell in Respect of Post-Distribution Periods.
Madewell shall make a payment to J.Crew for the use of Transferred Tax Attributes if, as and when realized as a reduction to Taxes payable by the Madewell Group in any Post-Distribution Period, which payment shall equal fifty percent (50%) of
the actual reduction in such Taxes of the Madewell Group or any member of the Madewell Group. 
 b) Madewell shall not be required to
compensate J.Crew for the use of any Tax Attributes that are used to reduce (A) Separation Taxes that Madewell would otherwise have borne, or (B) any increase in Madewell’s Tax liability with respect to a Combined Tax Return or
Madewell Separate Return, in either case, in respect of a Pre-Distribution Period, that would otherwise have been payable and arises from the filing of an amended Tax Return or is due to an adjustment pursuant
to a Tax Proceeding. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this Section 6, (i) any reduction in payments of Madewell’s Taxes on account of the application of Transferred Tax Attributes (or anticipated
availability thereof) shall be considered an offset to Madewell’s Tax liability and governed by the applicable provisions of this Section 6, and (ii) the amount that J.Crew is entitled to receive shall be
calculated after first taking into account: (a) all other applicable items of income, gain, deduction or loss (or any other Tax Attributes), (b) the application of Transferred Tax Attributes to reduce Separation Taxes, and (c) the
application of Transferred Tax Attributes to reduce Madewell’s Tax liability with respect to a Combined Tax Return or Madewell Separate Return, in either case, in respect of a Pre-Distribution Period
(regardless of whether such Tax liability results from an amendment or adjustment pursuant to a Tax Proceeding). For purposes of this Section 6, Madewell shall be treated as having realized the benefit of Transferred Tax
Attributes as a reduction to Taxes otherwise payable by Madewell or any member of the Madewell Group on the earlier of: (A) the date that the corresponding Tax Return (if any) is filed; or (B) the date that the applicable Taxes (including
estimated Taxes) are paid. Any payments required to be made pursuant to this Section 6 shall be made no later than sixty (60) days following the date that the benefit of the Transfer Tax Attributes is deemed to have
been realized. To the extent Madewell makes a payment to J.Crew for the use of Transferred Tax Attributes to reduce Madewell’s estimated Taxes for a Taxable year, but the benefit of such Transferred Tax Attributes is not actually realized in
that Taxable year (as reflected on Madewell’s Tax return for such Taxable year), J.Crew shall remit the excess amount of the payment to Madewell as a refund. 

c) After the expiration of services to be provided by J.Crew to Madewell under the Transition Services Agreement (in respect of the calculation
of Tax Attributes), Madewell shall deliver to J.Crew a certificate setting forth the calculation of the Transferred Tax Attributes utilized in respect of each Post-Distribution Period to date (including copies of any supporting worksheets) (the
“Transferred Tax Attribute Certificate”) (i) if, as, and when Madewell uses Transferred Tax Attributes to realize a reduction to Taxes (including estimated Taxes) payable by the Madewell Group in respect of any Post-Distribution
Period, within ten (10) calendar days of realizing such benefit, and (ii) from time to time upon the reasonable request of J.Crew. Within thirty (30) calendar days after its receipt of a Transferred Tax Attribute Certificate, J.Crew
shall either inform Madewell in writing that the Transferred Tax Attribute Certificate is acceptable or object thereto in writing. To the extent J.Crew objects thereto, the Parties shall resolve such dispute in accordance with the procedures set
forth in Section 17. 
 Section 7. Tax Benefits. 

a) Madewell Tax Benefits. Subject to Section 6, Madewell shall be entitled to any Tax Benefits received by any
member of the J.Crew Group or the Madewell Group with respect to any Tax allocated to a member of the Madewell Group under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, any refunds attributable to Taxes in respect of a Combined Tax Return (other than
Separation Taxes) will be allocated to Madewell in proportion to its percentage of liability as set forth on the Tax Sharing Apportionment Schedule. 

  
 7 

 b) J.Crew Tax Benefits. J.Crew shall be entitled to any Tax Benefits received by any
member of the J.Crew Group or the Madewell Group with respect to any Tax allocated to a member of the J.Crew Group under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, any refunds attributable to Taxes in respect of a Combined Tax Return (other than
Separation Taxes) will be allocated to J.Crew in proportion to its percentage of liability as set forth on the Tax Sharing Apportionment Schedule. 

c) A Company receiving a Tax Benefit to which another Company is entitled under this Agreement (a “Tax Benefit Recipient”)
shall pay over the amount of such Tax Benefit (including any interest received from the relevant Taxing Authority, but net of any Taxes imposed with respect to such Tax Benefit and any other reasonable costs associated with the receipt of the Tax
Benefit) within thirty (30) days of receipt thereof; provided, however, that upon the request of the Tax Benefit Recipient, the other Company shall repay the amount paid by the Tax Benefit Recipient (plus any penalties, interest or other
charges imposed by the relevant Taxing Authority) in the event that a Tax Benefit that gave rise to such payment is subsequently disallowed as a result of a final determination as defined in Section 1313(a) of the Code. 

Section 8. Indemnities. 
 a)
Madewell Indemnity to J.Crew. Madewell shall indemnify J.Crew against, and hold J.Crew harmless, without duplication, from any Tax liability allocated to Madewell pursuant to Section 3 (including, for the avoidance
of doubt, any Separation Taxes). 
 b) J.Crew Indemnity to Madewell. J.Crew shall indemnify Madewell against, and hold Madewell
harmless, without duplication, from any Tax liability allocated to J.Crew pursuant to Section 3. 
 c) Tax
Benefits. If an indemnification obligation of any Indemnifying Party under this Section 8 arises in respect of an adjustment that makes any Tax Benefit allowable to an Indemnitee which would not, but for such
adjustment, be allowable, then any such indemnification obligation shall be an amount equal to (i) the amount otherwise due but for this Section 8(c), minus (ii) the reduction in actual cash Taxes payable by the
Indemnitee no later than the end of the second Taxable year after the indemnification obligation arises as a direct result of the Tax Benefit, determined on a “with and without” basis. 

Section 9. Payments. 
 a)
Timing. All payments to be made to a Party under this Agreement shall be made in immediately available funds. Except as otherwise provided, all payments will be due thirty (30) Business Days after the receipt of notice of such payment
or, where no notice is required, thirty (30) Business Days after the fixing of liability or the resolution of a dispute (the “Due Date”). Payments shall be deemed made when received. Any payment that is not made on or before
the Due Date shall bear interest at the rate equal to the “prime” rate as published on such Due Date in the Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition, for the period from and including the date immediately following the Due Date through and
including the date of payment. 
 b) Treatment of Payments. Any payment made by Madewell to J.Crew for the use of Transferred Tax
Attributes (or refunds made by J.Crew to Madewell for any overpayments) pursuant to Section 6 shall be treated by the Parties for all Tax purposes as an adjustment to purchase price unless otherwise required by Applicable
Tax Law. To the extent permitted by Applicable Tax Law, a payment made pursuant to any Separation Document that relates to a Pre-Distribution Period and is made prior to the close of the Taxable year to which
it relates (x) by any member of the J.Crew Group to any member of the Madewell Group or (y) by any member of the Madewell Group to any member of the J.Crew Group shall be treated by the Parties hereto for all Tax purposes as a contribution
by Madewell to J.Crew, or a distribution by J.Crew to Madewell, as the case may be. In the event that a Taxing Authority asserts that a Party’s treatment of a payment described in this Section 9(b) should be other than
as required herein, (i) such Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to contest such assertion in a manner consistent with Section 11, and (ii) no Party hereto shall be entitled to any gross-up payment for Taxes incurred in connection with the receipt of a payment for Transferred Tax Attributes. 

  
 8 

 c) No Duplicative Payment. It is intended that the provisions of this Agreement shall
not result in a duplicative payment of any amount required to be paid under the Separation Agreement or any other Separation Document, and this Agreement shall be construed accordingly. 

Section 10. Communication and Cooperation. 

a) Consult and Cooperate. J.Crew and Madewell shall consult and cooperate (and shall cause each other member of their respective Groups
to consult and cooperate) fully at such time and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party in connection with all matters subject to this Agreement. Such cooperation shall include: 

i. the retention, and provision on reasonable request, of any and all information including all books, records, documentation or other
information pertaining to Tax matters relating to the Combined Group, any necessary explanations of information, and access to personnel, until one year after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitation (giving effect to any extension,
waiver or mitigation thereof); 
 ii. the execution of any document that may be necessary (including to give effect to
Section 11) or helpful in connection with any required Tax Return or in connection with any audit, proceeding, suit or action; and 

iii. the use of the Parties’ commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any documentation from a Governmental Authority or a third party
that may be necessary or helpful in connection with the foregoing. 
 b) Provide Information. J.Crew and Madewell shall keep each
other reasonably informed with respect to any material development relating to the matters subject to this Agreement. 
 c)
Confidentiality and Privileged Information. Any information or documents provided under this Agreement shall be kept confidential by the Party receiving the information or documents, except as may otherwise be necessary in connection with the
filing of required Tax Returns or in connection with any audit, proceeding, suit or action. Without limiting the foregoing (and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other agreement), (i) no member of the J.Crew Group or the
Madewell Group, respectively, shall be required to provide any member of the other Group or any other Person access to or copies of any information or procedures other than information or procedures that relate solely to matters for which Madewell
or J.Crew, respectively, has an obligation to indemnify under this Agreement, and (ii) in no event shall any member of the J.Crew Group or the Madewell Group be required to provide any member of the other Group or any other Person access to or
copies of any information if such action could reasonably be expected to result in the waiver of any privilege. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that J.Crew or Madewell determines that the provision of any information to any member of the
other Group could be commercially detrimental or violate any law or agreement to which the information providing Party is bound, such information providing Party shall not be required to comply with the foregoing terms of this
Section 10(c) except to the extent that it is able, using commercially reasonable efforts, to do so while avoiding such harm or consequence. 

Section 11. Tax Proceedings. 

a) Notice. Each of J.Crew or Madewell shall promptly notify the other in writing upon the receipt of any notice of a Tax Proceeding from
any Taxing Authority that may affect the liability of any member of the Madewell Group or any member of the J.Crew Group for Taxes under Applicable Law or this Agreement; provided, however, that a Party’s right to indemnification under
this Agreement shall not be limited in any way by a failure to so notify, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure. 

b) Combined Tax Returns. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, J.Crew and Madewell shall jointly control Tax
Proceedings relating to any Combined Tax Return; provided, however, that neither Party shall settle, compromise or dispose of such Tax Proceeding without the prior written approval of the other Party (such approval not to be unreasonably
delayed, conditioned or withheld). Each of J.Crew and Madewell shall have a duty to keep the other Party informed of all material developments and events relating to any such Tax Proceeding described in this Section 11(b).
Madewell, on the one hand, and J.Crew, on the other hand, will each bear fifty percent (50%) of any expenses attributable to a jointly controlled Tax Proceeding described in this Section 11(b). 

  
 9 

 c) Madewell Control; Separation Taxes. Subject to
Section 11(b) with respect to any Tax Proceedings related to a Combined Tax Return, Madewell shall have the right to control any Tax Proceeding relating to Separation Taxes; provided that Madewell shall keep J.Crew
fully informed of all material developments and shall permit J.Crew, at its own cost and expense, a reasonable opportunity to participate in (but not to control) the defense of the matter to the extent such Taxes are Taxes of a member of the J.Crew
Group. 
 d) Allocation of Adjustments. Any adjustments to Tax (including any related interest and penalties) resulting from a Tax
Proceeding or the filing of an amended Tax Return shall be allocated in a manner consistent with Section 3. For the avoidance of doubt, any adjustment to Separation Taxes (including any related interest and penalties) shall
be allocated one hundred percent (100%) to Madewell. 
 Section 12. Costs and Expenses. The Party that prepares any Tax Return shall bear
the costs and expenses incurred in the preparation of such Tax Return. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or the Separation Agreement, (i) each Party shall bear the costs and expenses incurred pursuant to this Agreement (including
with respect to any Tax Proceeding) to the extent the costs and expenses are directly attributable to a liability or obligation allocated to such Party and (ii) to the extent a cost or expense is not directly attributable to a liability or
obligation, it shall be borne by the Party incurring such cost or expense. For purposes of this Agreement, costs and expenses shall include, but not be limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, accountants’ fees and other related
professional fees and disbursements. 
 Section 13. Effectiveness; Termination and Survival. Except as expressly set forth in this
Agreement, as between J.Crew and Madewell, this Agreement shall become effective upon the consummation of the Distribution. All rights and obligations arising hereunder shall survive until they are fully effectuated or performed; provided
that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall remain in effect and its provisions shall survive for one (1) year after the full period of all applicable statutes of limitation (giving effect to any
extension, waiver or mitigation thereof) and, with respect to any claim initiated prior to the end of such period, until such claim has been satisfied or otherwise resolved. This agreement shall terminate without any further action at any time
before the Distribution upon termination of the Separation Agreement. 
 Section 14. Specific Performance. Each Party to this Agreement
acknowledges and agrees that damages for a breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement would be inadequate and irreparable harm would occur. In recognition of this fact, each Party agrees that, if there is a breach or
threatened breach, in addition to any damages, the nonbreaching Party to this Agreement, without posting any bond, shall be entitled to seek and obtain equitable relief in the form of specific performance, temporary restraining order, temporary or
permanent injunction, attachment, or any other equitable remedy which may then be available (i) to obligate the breaching Party to perform its obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) to take any other actions as are necessary, advisable
or appropriate to give the other Party to this Agreement the economic effect which comes as close as possible to the performance of those obligations (including transferring, or granting liens on, the assets of the breaching Party to secure the
performance by the breaching Party of those obligations). 
 Section 15. Construction. In this Agreement, unless the context clearly
indicates otherwise: 
 a) words used in the singular include the plural and words used in the plural include the singular; 

b) references to any Person include such Person’s successors and assigns but, if applicable, only if such successors and assigns are

Agreement, all references to dollar amounts herein shall be in respect of lawful currency of the United States.

 a) Entire Agreement. 

i. This Agreement and the other Separation Documents constitute the entire understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matter
hereof and supersede all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations, both written and oral, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. No representation, inducement, promise, understanding, condition or
warranty not set forth herein or in the other Separation Documents has been made or relied upon by any Party hereto or any member of their Group with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Separation Documents. This Agreement shall be
interpreted in accordance with the terms of the Separation Agreement in all respects, provided that in the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Separation Agreement, the terms of this
Agreement shall control in all respects. 
 ii. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT NO REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, PROMISE, INDUCEMENT,
UNDERSTANDING, COVENANT OR AGREEMENT HAS BEEN MADE OR RELIED UPON BY ANY PARTY OTHER THAN THOSE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT AND IN THE OTHER SEPARATION DOCUMENTS. WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE DISCLAIMER SET FORTH IN THE PRECEDING
SENTENCE, NONE OF J.CREW, MADEWELL OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES HAS MADE OR SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE MADE ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES IN ANY PRESENTATION OR WRITTEN INFORMATION RELATING TO THE BUSINESS GIVEN OR TO BE GIVEN IN
CONNECTION WITH THE CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTIONS OR IN ANY FILING MADE OR TO BE MADE BY OR ON BEHALF OF J.CREW, MADEWELL OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, AS APPLICABLE, WITH ANY GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY, AND NO STATEMENT MADE IN ANY SUCH
PRESENTATION OR WRITTEN MATERIALS, MADE IN ANY SUCH FILING OR CONTAINED IN ANY SUCH OTHER INFORMATION SHALL BE DEEMED A REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY HEREUNDER OR OTHERWISE. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE OTHER PARTY HAS INFORMED IT THAT NO PERSON
HAS BEEN AUTHORIZED BY IT OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES TO MAKE ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY IN RESPECT OF THE BUSINESS OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTIONS, UNLESS IN WRITING AND CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OF THE OTHER
SEPARATION DOCUMENTS TO WHICH THEY ARE A PARTY. 

  
 11 

 b) Amendments and Waivers. 

i. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case
of an amendment, by J.Crew and Madewell, or in the case of a waiver, by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective. 
 ii. No
failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right,
power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Applicable Law. 

Section 17. Dispute Resolution. In the event of any dispute relating to this Agreement, the Parties shall work together in good faith to
resolve such dispute within thirty (30) days. In the event that such dispute is not resolved, upon written notice by a Party after such thirty (30)-day period, the matter shall be referred to a U.S. Tax
counsel or other Tax advisor of recognized national standing (the “Tax Arbiter”) that will be jointly chosen by J.Crew and Madewell; provided, however, that if J.Crew and Madewell do not agree on the selection of the Tax
Arbiter after five (5) days of good faith negotiation, the Tax Arbiter shall consist of a panel of three U.S. Tax counsel or other Tax advisor of recognized national standing with one member chosen by the J.Crew, one member chosen by Madewell,
and a third member chosen by mutual agreement of the other members within the following ten (10)-day period. Each decision of a panel Tax Arbiter shall be made by majority vote of the members. The Tax Arbiter
may, in its discretion, obtain the services of any third party necessary to assist it in resolving the dispute. The Tax Arbiter shall furnish written notice to the Parties to the dispute of its resolution of the dispute as soon as practicable, but
in any event no later than ninety (90) days after acceptance of the matter for resolution. Any such resolution by the Tax Arbiter shall be binding on the Parties, and the Parties shall take, or cause to be taken, any action necessary to
implement such resolution. All fees and expenses of the Tax Arbiter shall be shared equally by the parties to the dispute. 
 Section 18.
Counterparts; Effectiveness; Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same
instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each Party hereto shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by the other Party hereto. Until and unless each Party has received a counterpart hereof signed by the other Party hereto, this
Agreement shall have no effect and no Party shall have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or written agreement or other communication). Except for Section 10(c) and the indemnification
and release provisions of Section 8, neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof is intended to confer any rights, benefits, remedies, obligations, or liabilities hereunder upon any Person other than the Parties hereto
and their respective successors and permitted assigns. 
 Section 19. Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided that neither Party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without
the consent of the other Party hereto. If any Party or any of its successors or permitted assigns (i) shall consolidate with or merge into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation
or merger or (ii) shall transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors and assigns of such Party shall assume all of the
obligations of such Party under the Separation Documents. 
 Section 20. Change in Tax Law. Any reference to a provision of the Code,
Treasury Regulations or any other Applicable Tax Law shall include a reference to any applicable successor provision of the Code, Treasury Regulations or other Applicable Tax Law. 

  
 12

and obligations set forth herein to be performed by any member of such Party’s Group.
