Persons but which such Person may be deemed to Beneficially Own under Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act solely because such Person may be deemed to be part of a “group” with such other Persons as within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of

 (b) “Person” shall mean individual, corporation, partnership, limited liability company,
joint venture, association, trust, unincorporated organization or other entity.

to any Person; provided that Guez, in his sole discretion, upon written notice to Manuel within five calendar days after the occurrence of a Trigger Event (the “Moratorium Notification”) and upon satisfaction of Section 4(c)
below, shall have the right to defer the Transfer rights set forth in this Section 4(a) for a period of up to one year from the date of the Trigger Event (the “Deferral Term”), in which case neither Guez nor Manuel shall have the

Manuel in U.S. dollars (the “Loan”), which Loan shall bear interest at the rate of 4% per annum, compounded annually, and be secured by a pledge by Manuel of 500,000 Manuel Shares (the “Collateral”). Guez’s
sole remedy in the event that Manuel defaults under the Loan shall be Guez’ right to exercise all rights of a secured party under the law with respect to the Collateral. The unpaid principal and accrued interest on the Loan shall mature on June
30, 2008.

 (g) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any
provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law but if any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under
any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or portion of any provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such
jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion of any provision had never been contained herein. 
  
 (h) Specific Performance. Each of the parties hereto recognizes and acknowledges that a breach by it of any covenants or agreements contained in
this Agreement will cause the other party to sustain damages for which it would not have an adequate remedy at law for money damages, and therefore each of the parties hereto agrees that in the event of any such breach the aggrieved party shall be

 5 

 (i) Remedies Cumulative. All rights, powers and remedies provided under this Agreement or
otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise of any thereof by any party shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power or remedy by such
party. 
  
 (j) No Waiver. The failure of any party hereto
to exercise any right, power or remedy provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity, or to insist upon compliance by any other party hereto with its obligations hereunder, and any custom or practice of
the parties at variance with the terms hereof, shall not constitute a waiver by such party of its right to exercise any such or other right, power or remedy or to demand such compliance. 
  
 (k) Recapitalizations and Exchanges Affecting Shares. The provisions of this Agreement shall apply, to the full
extent set forth herein with respect to the Shares, to any and all shares of capital stock of the Company which may be issued by reason of any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, combination, recapitalization, reclassification or
otherwise. 
  
 (l) No Third Party Beneficiaries. This
Agreement is not intended to be for the benefit of, and shall not be enforceable by, any Person who or which is not a party hereto. 
  
 (m) Governing Law; Jurisdiction. All questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of this Agreement and the performance of
the obligations imposed by this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without application of the conflicts of laws principles thereof. The parties hereby consent and agree that the state
or federal courts located in Delaware, shall have exclusive jurisdiction to hear and determine any claims or disputes between the parties pertaining to this Agreement or to any matter arising out of or relating to this Agreement; provided, that the
parties acknowledge that any appeals from those courts may have to be heard by a court located outside of Delaware. The parties expressly submit and consent in advance to such jurisdiction in any action or suit commenced in any such court, and each
party hereby waives any objection that such credit party may have based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue or forum non conveniens and hereby consents to the granting of such legal or equitable relief as is deemed appropriate
by such court. The parties hereby waive personal service of the summons, complaint and other process issued in any such action or suit and agrees that service of such summons, complaint and other process may be made by registered or certified mail
addressed to such party at the address specified in Section 6(f) of this Agreement and that service so made shall be deemed completed upon such party’s actual receipt thereof. Because disputes arising in connection with complex financial
transactions are most quickly and economically resolved by an experienced and expert person and the parties wish applicable state and federal laws to apply (rather than arbitration rules), the parties desire that their disputes be resolved by a
judge applying such applicable laws. Therefore, to achieve the best combination of the benefits of the judicial system and of arbitration, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY
DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, AMONG ANY PARTY ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED AMONG THEM IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO.

this Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such costs and expenses. 
  
 (o) Attorneys’ Fees. If any legal action or other legal proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement is brought by or against a party hereunder, the
prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and disbursements (in addition to any other relief to which the prevailing party may be entitled). 
  
 (p) Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings used herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are
not intended to be part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. 
  
 (q) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which, taken together, shall constitute one and the same Agreement.

first above written.

	 	A.	AZT is, among other things, a manufacturer of denim-related products. 

  

	 	B.	Cygne is, among other things, a seller of denim-related products. 

  

	 	C.	Commerce and Cygne have entered into a separate Asset Purchase Agreement dated the same date as this Supply Agreement, pursuant to which Cygne has acquired from Commerce certain
assets and properties formerly used by Commerce in the operation of its business (the “Business”) of selling and distributing branded and private label denim-related products. 

  

	 	D.	The parties now desire to enter into this non-exclusive Supply Agreement whereby AZT will manufacture and supply certain products for Cygne under the terms and conditions set forth
in this Supply Agreement, and Cygne will market and sell such products to its customers and the former customers of the Business. 

  
 NOW, THEREFORE, and in consideration of the mutual promises, covenants, representations and good and valuable consideration set forth herein, the adequacy
of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
  
 ARTICLE
1. PRODUCTS, ORDERS AND PRICING 
  
 1.1 Manufacturing
Services. At the request of Cygne, AZT shall supply to Cygne the denim products described in Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Denim Products”), during the Term of this Supply Agreement subject to the terms and conditions
hereinafter set forth. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Cygne shall not be obligated to utilize AZT’s manufacturing or supply services with respect to any minimum amount of Denim Products or at all. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, AZT shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to outsource to third parties the manufacturing of any Denim Products to be supplied by AZT to Cygne hereunder. 
  
 1.2 Purchase Price. AZT agrees that the purchase price (the “AZT Price”) of the Denim Products purchased
from AZT by Cygne or its affiliates shall allow Cygne (i) for branded Denim Products, an initial Gross Margin (as defined below) on the initial offering line price per unit to its wholesale customers, net of discounts granted to customers, which
discounts are determined on a customer by customer basis and are added back to determine the initial offering line price per unit, but without adjustment for any chargeback deductions and allowances (the “Cygne Wholesale Price”) of 30% and
(ii) for private label Denim Products, an 

 
initial Gross Margin on the Cygne Wholesale Price of 15%. For purposes of this Supply Agreement, “Gross Margin” shall mean the difference between
the Cygne Wholesale Price and the AZT Price divided by the Cygne Wholesale Price. The parties acknowledge that for the styles currently being offered by Commerce, the initial offering line price per unit to its wholesale customers before discounts
and allowances (the “Commerce Wholesale Price”) for HIPPIE and DONNA LONGO is approximately between $23.00 and $28.00 per Denim Product. The parties acknowledge that for the styles currently being offered by Commerce, the Commerce
Wholesale Price for HINT JEANS and MANHATTAN BLUES is approximately between $14.10 and $16.10 per Denim Product. The parties acknowledge that for the styles currently being offered by Commerce, the Commerce Wholesale Price for private label Denim
Products is approximately between $11.00 and $13.00 per Denim Product. At the beginning of each season or market, the Cygne Wholesale Prices shall be subject to the prior written consent of AZT, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The
parties acknowledge that in addition to the foregoing styles currently being offered by Commerce, Cygne may adopt additional styles after the date hereof to be manufactured or supplied hereunder, in which case, the Cygne Wholesale Prices with
respect to any supply hereunder for each such additional style shall be subject to the prior written consent of AZT, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 
  
 1.3 Compliance with Law. All of the Denim Products to be manufactured or supplied hereunder shall be made in
accordance with all applicable laws and regulations. 
  
 1.4
Placing of Subsequent Orders. During the Term or any Renewal Term of this Supply Agreement, on a monthly basis, Cygne shall submit written purchase orders to AZT clearly setting forth the Denim Products to be purchased by Cygne and requested
shipping dates for the ordered Denim Products. All purchase orders shall be in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Supply Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Supply Agreement and the terms of any purchase
order issued by Cygne, the terms of this Supply Agreement will govern. In the event that the aggregate amount of all purchase orders outstanding from Cygne at any given time equals or exceeds $7,500,000, then, at the written request of AZT, Cygne
shall advance AZT an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of any amount exceeding $7,500,000. Any such advance paid to AZT from time to time shall reduce the aggregate amount of the AZT Price due and owing by Cygne with respect to any outstanding

exclusively be in the state or federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California. 
  
 12.2 Entire Agreement. This Supply Agreement, including the Exhibit(s) attached hereto, constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between the parties and integrates all prior discussions between them

 12.3 Assignment. This Supply Agreement may not be assigned by any party hereto to any other
person, firm, or entity without the express written approval of the other party hereto and any attempt at assignment in violation of this section will be null and void; provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Cygne may assign this Agreement,
and grant a security interest in this Agreement, to any senior lender to Cygne without being required to obtain the consent of AZT, and AZT shall have the right to assign this Supply Agreement to an affiliate of AZT upon written notice to Cygne,
without being required to obtain the consent or approval of Cygne. Without limiting the foregoing, AZT shall not, voluntarily or by operation of law (including, without limitation, by transfer of the stock of AZT or Azteca), assign or transfer, this
Supply Agreement or any interest herein, or any right or obligation hereunder, without first obtaining the written consent of Cygne, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

 12.5 Rights to
Injunctive Relief. Both parties acknowledge that remedies at law may be inadequate to provide full compensation in the event of a material breach relating to either party’s obligations, representations, and warranties hereunder, and the
non-breaching party will therefore be entitled to seek injunctive relief in the event of any such material breach. 
  
 12.6 Force Majeure. No party will be liable for, or will be considered to be in breach of or default under this Supply Agreement on account of, any
delay or failure to perform as required by this Supply Agreement as a result of any causes or conditions that are beyond such party’s reasonable control (such as war, riot, attack of terror, insurrection, rebellion, strike, lockout, unavoidable
casualty, or damage to personnel, material or equipment, fire, flood, storm, earthquake, tornado, or any act of God) and that such party is unable to overcome through the exercise of commercially reasonable diligence. If any force majeure event
occurs, the affected party will give prompt written notice to the other party and will use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the impact of the event. However, if a force majeure event prevents a party’s performance of a material
covenant set forth herein, the other party can immediately terminate this Supply Agreement. 
  

 - 7 - 

 12.7 Waiver. The waiver, express or implied, by any party of any breach of or right under this
Supply Agreement by another party will not waive any subsequent breach or right by such party of the same or a different kind. 
  
 12.8 Headings. The headings to the Sections and Exhibits of this Supply Agreement are included merely for convenience of reference and will not
affect the meaning of the language included therein. 
  
 12.9
Independent Contractors. The parties acknowledge and agree that they are dealing with each other hereunder as independent contractors. Nothing contained in this Supply Agreement will be interpreted as constituting either party the joint
venturer, employee or partner of the other party or as conferring upon either party the power of authority to bind the other party in any transaction with third parties. 
  
 12.10 Severability. In the event any provision of this Supply Agreement is held by a court or other tribunal of
competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, such provision will be reformed only to the extent necessary to make it enforceable, and the other provisions of this Supply Agreement will remain in full force and effect. 
  
 12.11 Counterparts. This Supply Agreement may be executed in two or
more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. For purposes hereof, a facsimile copy of this Supply Agreement, including the signature pages hereto, will be deemed
to be an original. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties will deliver original execution copies of this Supply Agreement to one another as soon as practicable following execution thereof. 
  
 12.12 Cooperation in Drafting. All parties have cooperated in the
drafting and preparation of this Supply Agreement, and it will not be construed more favorably for or against any party. 
  
 12.13 Attorney’s Fees. Should any party hereto initiate a legal or administrative action or arbitration proceeding (an “Action”) to
enforce any of the terms or conditions of this Supply Agreement, the prevailing party (as determined by the court, arbitrator or other fact-finder) will be entitled to recover from the losing party all reasonable costs of the Action, including
without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.
