Operator will sell no products other than Merchandise in the Stores. All use by Operator of the Trademark is subject to CKI’s prior approval. Operator shall provide CKI annually, not later than ninety (90) days prior to the end of each Annual Period, for CKI’s reasonable prior approval, a schedule with existing Stores together with plans for the establishment of additional Stores in
the Territory, on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis.

Operator is required to open, maintain and continuously operate the number of Stores as indicated on the Roll-Out Schedule attached hereto and made a part hereof as determined at the close of each Annual Period hereunder as applicable in each Region. ***  If (a) the attached Roll-Out Schedule (on an *** rounded up) has ***, or (b) *** as applicable, or (c) if *** of the required number of Stores that have been opened have been shut or have discontinued operations (shut down for more than thirty (30)

GUARANTEE

In order to induce Calvin Klein, Inc. (“CKI”) to enter into the license agreement dated as of the date hereof (the “Agreement”) with Calvin Klein Jeanswear Company and CKJ Holdings, Inc. (“Operator”) which is being executed simultaneously herewith and in consideration of the covenants and promises made by CKI in the Agreement, the undersigned (the “Guarantor”), being the parent of Operator, unconditionally guarantees (i) that Operator will perform and observe each and every agreement, covenant, representation, warranty, term and condition of the Agreement to be performed or observed by Operator, and upon Operator’s failure to do so, the Guarantor will promptly perform and cause the same promptly to be performed and observed, in all events within the cure period specified in the Agreement, as applicable, and (ii) the due and punctual
payment of all sums of whatever character which may become payable by Operator pursuant to the Agreement will be paid by the Operator (including amounts which would be paid but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C 362(a) or any other provision of bankruptcy law) (clauses (i) and (ii) referred to as the Guaranteed Obligations. If for any reason whatsoever any sum hereinabove referred to, or any part thereof, shall not be paid promptly when due, the Guarantor will immediately pay the same regardless of whether CKI has taken steps to enforce any rights against Operator to collect any of said sums and regardless of any other condition of contingency.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent this Guarantee relates to the payment of sums due to CKI under the Agreement, it is a Guarantee of payment and not of collection and a continuing guarantee which will remain in full force and effect and be binding upon the undersigned until payment in full by Operator to CKI of all sums due pursuant to the Agreement.

The representation, warranties, obligations, covenants, agreements, and duties of the Guarantor under this Guarantee shall in no way be affected or impaired by reason of the happening from time to time of any of the following with respect to the Agreement although without notice to or the further consent of the Guarantor:  (i) the waiver by Operator of any agreement, covenant, warranty, representation, term or condition contained in the Agreement; (ii) the extension, in whole or in part, of the time for the payment by Operator of any sums owing or payable under the Agreement, or of the time or performance by Operator of any of its other obligations under or arising out of the Agreement; (iii) the modification or amendment (whether material or otherwise) of any of the obligations of Operator under the Agreement; (iv) any failure, omission, delay or lack on the part of CKI to
enforce, assert or exercise any right, power or remedy conferred on CKI in the Agreement or otherwise; (v) any discharge of Operator from any of the Guaranteed Obligations in a bankruptcy or similar proceeding.

No failure on the part of CKI to exercise, and no delay in the exercise of, any right, remedy or power hereunder will operate as covenant, term or condition under the Agreement or in the payment of any sums payable by it thereunder.

This Guarantee shall terminate and be of no further force and effect on the later of (x) the payment in full of all amounts outstanding under the Agreement and (y) the termination of the Agreement.

This Guarantee will be construed and enforced under the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed in said state.

The Guarantee cannot be changed, discharged or terminated orally.

The Guarantor hereby waives acceptance of this Guarantee.

Exhibit F

Statement of Corporate Responsibility

Statement of Corporate Responsibility

At Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation we are guided by the principle that success in business is dependent on putting “human” issues first. Indeed, we know that our company would not have grown as it has if we did not place highest priority on making a genuine contribution to improving the quality of life and upholding the basic rights of our associates, their families and the communities in which we operate.

We are publishing this statement of corporate responsibility to clearly spell out our concerns and commitments.

Statement of Commitment to Our Associates

Our foremost concern, even in the most challenging economic climate, must be for our associates; the thousands of people who have made our company one of the most successful apparel and footwear manufacturers in the world today.

For over 100 years, our credo has been:

	
                         
 	
                        •
 	
                        To conduct all business in keeping with the highest moral, ethical and legal standards.
 

	
                         
 	
                        •
 	
                        To recruit, train, and provide career advancement to all associates without regard to gender, race, religion, age, disability, sexual orientation, nationality, or social or ethnic origin. Diversity in the workplace will be encouraged. Bigotry, racism and sexual harassment will not be tolerated.
 

	
                         
 	
                        •
 	
                        To maintain workplace environments that encourage frank and open communications.
 

	
                         
 	
                        •
 	
                        To be concerned with the preservation and improvement of our environment.
 

	
                         
 	
                        •
 	
                        To be ever mindful that our dedication to these standards is absolute –- it will not be compromised.
 

A Shared Responsibility

This commitment must be shared by the companies with which we do business. We categorically state:

	
                         
 	
                        •
 	
                        We will not discriminate based on race, gender, or religion, and we will not do business with any company that does.
 

	
                         
 	
                        •
 	
                        We will treat our employees fairly with regard to wages, benefits and working conditions, including a safe and healthy environment, and we will not do business with any company that does otherwise.
 

	
                         
 	
                        •
 	
                        We will never violate the legal or moral rights of employees in any way, and we will not do business with any company that does.
 

	
                         
 	
                        •
 	
                        We will only do business with companies who share our commitment to preserving and improving the environment.
 

	
                         
 	
                        •
 	
                        We will never employ children in our facilities, nor will we do business with any company that makes use of child labor. Our employees and those of our partners and vendors must be over the applicable minimum legal age requirement or be at least 14 years old, or older than the age for completing compulsory education in the country of manufacture, whichever is greater.
 

	
                         
 	
                        •
 	
                        Phillips-Van Heusen is committed to an ongoing program of monitoring all our facilities and those of companies with whom we do business in accordance with our code of conduct, “A Shared Commitment.”  This code defines PVH standards and values, which must be upheld in our facilities and those of our suppliers, contractors and business partners.
 

A Commitment to People
The history of Phillips-Van Heusen, over the course of more than a century, represents a proud tradition of genuine commitment to people:

 

	 	•
	An absolute commitment to and respect for the dignity of all our associates without regard to race, gender or region.

	
                         
 	
                        •
 	
                        Support for continuing education for our associates and their families.
 

	
                         
 	
                        •
 	
                        Charitable contributions to the communities in which we operate.
 

	
                         
 	
                        •
 	
                        Loans and gifts to associates in need.
 

	
                         
 	
                        •
 	
                        Demand that the people we do business with adhere to the same high standards which have guided our company for more than a century.
