NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises set forth above, the terms and conditions contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:

 

1.                                       Grant of Security Interest and Assignment.  As collateral security for the prompt performance, observance and indefeasible payment in full of all of the Obligations (as hereinafter defined), Assignor hereby assigns, pledges, transfers, sets over and grants to Assignee, for the benefit of each Secured Party, a continuing security interest in and a general lien upon, all of Assignor’s now existing or hereafter arising right, title and interest in and to each of the Transition Services Documents and all proceeds thereunder, including, but not limited to, (a) all rights of Assignor to have the services provided under the Transition Services Agreement and to exercise all remedies thereunder and to require performance by LBI of its obligations under the Transition Services Documents; (b) all rights of Assignor to receive monies due to become due to it under or in connection with the Transition Services Documents; (c) all rights of Assignor to indemnification and claims for damages or other relief pursuant to or in respect of the Transition Services Documents; (d) all rights of Assignor to exercise the royalty-free, paid-up licenses granted to Assignor with respect to certain computer software codes and computer software programs pursuant to any quitclaim licenses entered into pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement, together with  any other licenses for the use of intellectual property set forth in the Transition Services Documents; and (e) all proceeds (as defined in the UCC), collections, recoveries and rights of subrogation with respect to the foregoing, in each case, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising and wherever located (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to herein as the “Collateral”).

 

2.                                       Obligations Secured.  The assignment, security interest and lien granted to Assignee pursuant to this Assignment shall secure the prompt performance, observance and payment in full of any and all Obligations (as defined in the Loan Agreement).

 

3.                                       No Assumption of Duties.  This Assignment is executed only as security for the Obligations and, therefore, the execution and delivery of this Assignment shall not subject Assignee, any Secured Party, to, or transfer or pass to Assignee, any Secured Party, or in any way affect or modify, the liability of Assignor under the Transition Services Documents.  In no event shall the acceptance of this Assignment by Assignee or the exercise by Assignee of any rights hereunder or assigned hereby, constitute an assumption of any liability or obligation of Assignor to any of the other parties to the Transition Services Documents or any other persons.

 

4.                                       Representations, Warranties and Covenants.  Assignor hereby represents, warrants and covenants with and to Assignee, for the benefit of Secured Parties, the following (all of such representations, warranties and covenants being continuing as long as any of the Obligations are outstanding):

 

(a)                                  Each of the Transition Services Documents is and shall be a legal, valid and binding obligation of Assignor.

 

(b)                                 No default or event of default under or with respect to the Transition Services Documents exists or has occurred (i) that would adversely affect the interests of Assignee and Secured Parties in the Collateral granted hereunder or collateral granted under the Loan Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements or adversely affect any rights or

remedies of Assignee and Secured Parties under the Financing Agreements or (ii) that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, business, performance or results of operation of the business of Borrowers and Guarantors as it relates to the services performed for Borrowers and Guarantors under the Transition Services Documents.

 

(c)                                  Assignor has obtained all consents required for the valid and binding assignment of the Transition Services Documents, other than the acknowledgment of LBI which Assignor shall obtain on or before the time set forth in the Post Closing Letter, dated of even date herewith, among Borrowers, Guarantors and Assignee.

 

(d)                                 Assignor shall promptly and faithfully abide by, perform and discharge in all material respects the obligations, covenants, conditions and duties which the Transition Services Documents provide are to be performed by Assignor.

 

(e)                                  Each of the Transition Services Documents is in full force and effect and, without the prior written consent of Assignee, Assignor will not amend, supplement or otherwise modify or terminate any of the terms or provisions of any of the Transition Services Documents in a manner that would adversely affect the Obligations or the Collateral in any material way, as determined in the good faith by Assignor so long as no Cash Dominion Event exists or has occurred and is continuing, in which case, Assignor shall obtain the prior written consent of Assignee to amend, supplement or otherwise modify or terminate any of the terms or provisions of any of the Transition Services Documents.

 

(f)                                    At Assignor’s sole cost and expense, Assignor shall appear in and defend any action or proceedings that in Assignor’s good faith judgment could materially adversely affect  the Obligations or the Collateral and arising under, growing out of or in any manner connected with the obligations, covenants, conditions, duties, agreements or liabilities of Assignor under the Transition Services Documents so long as no Cash Dominion Event exists or has occurred and is continuing, in which case, Assignor shall appear in and defend any action or proceedings unless otherwise agreed to by Assignee in writing

 

(g)                                 Assignor shall (i) promptly notify Assignee of each and every dispute with, proceeding or claim against, cause of action or litigation involving any person that could have a material adverse impact on the Obligations or the Collateral for which Assignor has or may have any right to indemnification or claim for damages or other relief or remedies, whether at law or in equity, arising under or in connection with the Transition Services Documents, (ii) diligently enforce all rights to indemnification or claim for damages or other relief or remedies, whether at law or in equity, arising under or in connection with the Transition Services Documents, except as determined not to be in the best interests of Assignor in its good faith business judgment so long as no Cash Dominion Event exists or has occurred and is continuing, in which case, Assignor shall diligently enforce such rights, relief or remedies unless otherwise agreed to by Assignee in writing, and (iii) not take or permit, and has not taken or permitted since the execution of the Transition Services Documents, any action that could adversely affect, in the good faith judgment of Assignee, the Obligations or the Collateral.

No such waiver, release, discharge, compromise or settlement shall be effective without the prior written consent of Assignee.

 

5.                                       Events Of Default.

(b)                                 In order to effectuate the foregoing, Assignor, for itself and its respective successors and assigns, hereby constitutes and appoints Assignee and each officer and employee thereof as its attorney in fact with power to assert claims and commence and prosecute suit against any Person or to settle or compromise any such claim or suit relating to any such right, claim, relief or remedy, and to sign and file any and all papers required in connection therewith and to take any and all other action which Assignee may, in its good faith discretion, deem appropriate.  Assignor hereby ratifies and approves all acts which Assignee or any officer or employee thereof as attorney may do and this power of attorney, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable as long as any of the Obligations remain outstanding.

 

(c)                                  No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising on the part of Assignee any right, power or privilege under this Assignment, the Loan Agreement or under any of the other Financing Agreements or other documents referred to herein or therein shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power and privilege.  The rights and remedies of Assignee under this Assignment, the other Financing Agreements or applicable law, are cumulative and not exclusive and all such rights and remedies may be exercised alternatively, successively or concurrently.

(i)                                     The validity, interpretation and enforcement of this Assignment and any dispute arising out of the relationship between the parties hereto, whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise, shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York but excluding any principles of conflict of laws or other rule of law that would cause the application of the law of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the State of New York.

 

(ii)                                  Assignor and Assignee irrevocably consent and submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York for New York County and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, whichever Assignee may elect, and waive any objection based on venue or forum non conveniens with respect to any action instituted therein arising under this Assignment or in any way connected with or related or incidental to the dealings of the parties hereto in respect of this Assignment or the transactions related hereto, in each case whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise, and agree that any dispute with respect to any such matters shall be heard only in the courts described above (except that Assignee or any Secured Party shall have the right to the extent provided in the Loan Agreement to bring any action or proceeding against Assignor or its property in the courts of any other jurisdiction which Assignee deems necessary or appropriate in order to realize on the Collateral or to otherwise enforce its rights against Assignor or its property).

 

(iii)                               Assignor and Assignee hereby waives personal service of any and all process upon it and consents that all such service of process may be made by certified mail (return receipt requested) directed to its address set forth herein and service so made shall be deemed to be completed five (5) days after the same shall have been so deposited in the U.S. mails, or, at Assignee’s option, by service upon Assignor in any other manner provided under the rules of any such courts.  Within thirty (30) days after such service, Assignor shall appear in answer to such process, failing which Assignor shall be deemed in default and judgment may be entered by Assignee against Assignor for the amount of the claim and other relief requested.

 

(iv)                              ASSIGNOR AND ASSIGNEE EACH HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (i) ARISING UNDER THIS ASSIGNMENT OR (ii) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO IN RESPECT OF THIS ASSIGNMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE.  ASSIGNOR AND ASSIGNEE EACH HEREBY AGREE AND CONSENT THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT ASSIGNOR OR ASSIGNEE MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OF A COPY OF THIS ASSIGNMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

 

(v)                                 Neither Assignee nor any Secured Party shall have any liability to Assignor (whether in tort, contract, equity or otherwise) for losses suffered by Assignor in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the transactions or relationships contemplated by this Assignment, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection herewith, unless it is determined by a final and non-appealable judgment or court order binding

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, in its capacity as agent pursuant to the Loan Agreement (as hereinafter defined) acting for and on behalf of the parties thereto as lenders (individually, each a “Lender” and collectively, “Lenders”) and the parties thereto as bank product providers (in such capacity, together with its successors and assigns, “Agent”), and Lenders have entered into financing arrangements pursuant to which Lenders (or Agent on behalf of Lenders) may make loans and provide other financial accommodations to Lerner New York, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Lerner”), Lernco, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Lernco”), and Lerner New York Outlet, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation (“Lerner Outlet” and together with Lerner and Lernco, collectively, “Borrowers” and individually each a “Borrower”) as set forth in the Third Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and among Borrowers, New York & Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“NY&Co”), Lerner New York Holding, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Nevada Receivable Factoring, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Nevada Factoring”), New York & Company Stores, Inc., a New York corporation, formerly known as Associated Lerner Shops of America, Inc., a New York corporation (“NY&Co Stores”), and Lerner New York GC, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company (“Lerner GC” and together with NY&Co, Parent, Nevada Factoring and NY &Co Stores, collectively, “Guarantors” and each a “Guarantor”), Agent and Lenders (as the same now exists or may hereafter be amended, modified, supplemented, extended, renewed, restated or replaced, the “Loan Agreement”), and the other Financing Agreements (as the same now exist or may hereafter be amended, modified, supplemented, extended, renewed, restated or replaced).  Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Loan Agreement.

 

In order to induce Agent and Lenders to enter into the financing arrangements as provided under the Financing Agreements and in consideration of the financial accommodations provided by Agent and Lenders to Borrowers thereunder:

 

1.       Borrowers and Guarantors hereby agree that, in addition to all other terms, conditions and provisions set forth herein and in the other Financing Agreements, Borrowers shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Agent, in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, by no later than the date referred to below (or such later date, as may be agreed to in writing by Agent in its sole discretion) with respect to each such item, the following:

 

 

(a) on or before October 9, 2011, either (i) a Landlord Agreement by Pearland Town Center Limited Partnerships/CBL & Associates Limited Partnership (“Landlord”) in favor of Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent with respect to the leased premises of Lerner located at 11200 Broadway Street, Pearland Texas 77584, duly executed and delivered by Landlord or (ii) a UCC Financing Statement Amendment terminating the UCC Financing Statement between NY&Co, as debtor, and Landlord, as secured party, filed with the Delaware Secretary of State;

 

(b) on or before October 9, 2011, an amendment to the Amended and Restated Private Label Credit Card Agreement, dated November 1, 2004, by and among World Financial Network National Bank (“WFNNB”), Lerner and such other Loan Parties that Lerner determines are necessary, among other things, to add Lerner as a party thereto;

 

(c) on or before October 9, 2011, a Credit Card Acknowledgment with respect to the Amended and Restated Private Label Credit Card Agreement referred to in Section 1(b) hereof, duly executed and delivered by the applicable parties thereto; and

 

(d) on or before October 9, 2011, a letter agreement, duly executed and delivered by Limited Brands, Inc., Borrowers and Guarantors acknowledging the security interest of Agent pursuant to the Collateral Assignment of Transitions Services Documents, dated as of the date hereof, by Borrowers and Guarantors in favor of Agent.

 

2.       This letter agreement shall not limit or otherwise affect in any manner whatsoever the right of Agent to require Borrowers or Guarantors to execute and deliver or obtain or cause to be executed and/or delivered any further agreements, documents or instruments as provided in the Financing Agreements or otherwise or to take any other actions otherwise permitted or required under the Financing Agreements, or to establish any Reserves, or deem Collateral ineligible for lending purposes in the absence of the foregoing items, or take any other actions otherwise permitted under the Financing Agreements.  Failure to supply the agreements and documents referred to above in Section 1 within the required time as set forth above shall, at Agent’s option, entitle Agent to exercise its rights to establish Reserves or deem Collateral ineligible for lending purposes in Agent’s good faith discretion. Agent may, at its option, extend any of the dates set forth herein without any further approval of any of the Lenders.

 

3.       The validity, interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements and any dispute arising out of the relationship between the parties hereto, whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise, shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York but excluding any principles of conflict of laws or other rule of law that would cause the application of the law of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the State of New York.
