  UPDATED SCHEDULE 1 (2022)  INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY (IT)   Fees   The monthly Fees for the Services on this Schedule 1 shall initially be as set forth below:               Services   Torrid will provide Hot Topic with the following:   1. Application and Infrastructure Services  a. Provide the operating environments, with capacity and resource-availability not less than that  used by Hot Topic as of the date of this Agreement, and with the business applications as set  forth above.   2. Business Processing, Infrastructure and Network Access Services for all Hot Topic locations that are  associated with the application and infrastructure support set forth herein.                                                 Other Terms   DocuSign Envelope ID: 58189915-020F-4AFA-AE45-7CF75C8F010F 

 

  If required by agreements with software and hardware licensors, Hot Topic and Torrid will provide such  required information subject to its confidentiality obligations and solely as needed to provide the  specific service; such information may include, but not be limited to, sales, number of locations and  number of users with regard to agreements that require such information.    Hot Topic shall comply with all policies and procedures generally applicable to Torrid in  connection with the Services provided under this Schedule 1, including without limitation Torrid's  Information Security Policy which is incorporated by reference in Appendix II.  In addition, Torrid shall  comply with the applicable provisions of Appendix II.   The specific configurations and the specific applications and systems software made available  may change at the option of Torrid, including changes required for regulatory, security and/or  contractual compliance.  Torrid shall provide Hot Topic reasonable advance notice of material changes.   If the change is anticipated to materially impact Hot Topic's business, Torrid will provide the option to  include Hot Topic in the testing of the solution either through direct participation or reporting of results  of system testing.  If Hot Topic implements any project not anticipated in this Agreement, any costs  associated with such projects will borne solely by Hot Topic.  To the extent Torrid resources are needed  to support such projects, Hot Topic will also be responsible for any costs incurred by Torrid and Torrid  will make commercially reasonable efforts to provide such services as requested by Hot Topic.    Capital expenditures: For all future capital expenditures, the following economic rules will apply:   o For all capital expenditures associated with shared systems not attributable directly to the  growth  or needs of either Hot Topic or Torrid (i.e., increases to license fees or other capital  costs not based on revenue, stores, or other volume metrics), Torrid will charge Hot Topic  annually half of the annual depreciation associated with such capital expenditures.   o For all capital expenditures associated with shared systems attributable directly to the growth  or needs of Hot Topic, Hot Topic will pay its equitable share of any capital expenditures (e.g.,  revenue-based license fee increases, store-count based fees) proportional to the increase in  volume.    Torrid may perform upgrades to and may, in its sole discretion, implement replacements of the  software applications and systems software used by Hot Topic (those applications listed above) in  conjunction with the implementation of such upgrades or replacements either (a) for Torrid generally;  (b) with respect to any other Torrid businesses that have similar or the same software; or (c) as  necessary for continued supportability of Hot Topic's applications that are being used at the effective  date of this agreement.  Certain projects which are underway or contemplated could result in changes to  existing technology or business processes for Torrid. Torrid will notify Hot Topic of those material  changes and associated cost implications, if any.  If the change is anticipated to materially impact Hot  Topic, Torrid will provide the option to include Hot Topic in the testing of the solution, either through  direct participation or the reporting of results of system testing. Torrid will use commercially reasonable  efforts to maintain Services of reasonable quality throughout any replacement or testing period.   Furthermore, for all license fees that Hot Topic has historically paid directly to any vendor for Hot Topic’s  usage, Hot Topic shall continue to directly pay vendor. For all license fees for which Torrid has  historically reimbursed Hot Topic, Torrid will continue reimbursing Hot Topic until such time as the  contract is transferred.         Obligations of Torrid and Hot Topic      Each month Hot Topic and Torrid IT leads will meet to discuss combined Hot Topic and Torrid  agreements for equipment, software, hardware, network, telecommunications, and other IT services  DocuSign Envelope ID: 58189915-020F-4AFA-AE45-7CF75C8F010F 

 

  that are coming up for expiration within ninety (90) days. At that time, Hot Topic and Torrid will  determine if it would be practical (i.e. from a cost perspective) to separate such combined IT  agreements so that Hot Topic and Torrid each have their own agreement. Once a contract is separated,  Hot Topic and Torrid each agree to reimburse the contract signatory (either Hot Topic or Torrid) for the  incremental costs associated with such contract separation, including but not limited to excess usage  fees.     Hot Topic shall provide the physical space, electricity, climate control, network access, and any other  infrastructure necessary to support existing data centers in its distribution centers as it has prior to the  Effective Date, and shall provide access to Torrid as required by Torrid to support its own business and  to provide Services to Hot Topic associated with Torrid owned or leased equipment located at such  distribution centers for the length of this Agreement, including any extensions.  Hot Topic will be  responsible for maintaining all equipment related to warehouse management systems for DCs and IFCs  located in Hot Topic distribution centers.       Termination of Agreement      At any time during the term, Hot Topic or Torrid (“Terminating Party”) may terminate any or all of the  Torrid Supported Services by providing written notice, in each case, specifying the Service(s) to be  terminated and the termination date therefore. The Terminating Party will reimburse the other  for any  cost increases or penalties assessed by the vendor and caused by the early termination that occurs  through that the expiration of the current term. From and after the effective date of the termination as  provided for above, the Terminating Party shall have no further liability or obligation with respect to  fees or expenses for such terminated Service(s), except for any accrued and unpaid fees or expenses for  such terminated Service(s). For further avoidance of doubt, the Terminating Party will not be responsible  for the costs associated with the terminated systems or services following the effective date of  expiration of such current term. For avoidance of doubt, the Terminating Party will be responsible for  any costs associated with terminating any of the systems not supported by the other (including all  Distribution & Logistics systems, eCommerce systems, and store systems).      Torrid has the option, upon expiration of a contract, for any system or subset thereof, to either:    a) return the system(s) and related hardware to Hot Topic (at no cost to Hot Topic, unless  Torrid incurred capital expenditures on the systems during the time it was providing services,  in which case the cost will be equivalent to any remaining book basis of investments on capital  expenditures incurred while Torrid was providing services), or    b) commit to operating the system for one (1) additional year for a mutually agreed upon  annual cost based on the actual cost to provide the service.     For any system that Torrid elects to return to Hot Topic,    o Torrid will provide two (2) months’ notice in advance of the date on which it will be returned,  with the return date occurring on or about an anniversary of the Effective Date; and    o Upon return of any system(s), (a) the applicable Services relating to such system(s) shall be  terminated and this Schedule 1 shall be modified as appropriate to reflect the termination of  such Services, and (b) the operations and related costs, including license and services fees,  maintenance, support fees and costs and payroll, associated with those systems after the  return of systems from Torrid will be the sole responsibility of Hot Topic.
