19) TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT:
A) This Agreement may be terminated by mutual written consent of the Parties.
B) This Agreement may also be terminated by Buyer, in its sole discretion, if Buyer, in good faith, decides to discontinue further development, production, or commercialization of the Bahama Boats product line before the balance of the Purchase Price is paid to Seller (“Discontinuation”). Buyer shall provide Seller with written notice in the event that it terminates this Agreement.
i) Upon notice of termination pursuant to this Section 19, Buyer and Seller may either attempt to sell the Bahama Boat brand, intellectual property, and related Assets pursuant to Section 20 of this Agreement. Alternatively, the Buyer, in its sole discretion, may elect to return the Assets to Seller. In the event Buyer elects to return the Assets to Buyer, the following shall apply:
a) The Assets defined in Section 1(A) and 1(B) shall be returned to Seller. Buyer shall not be obligated to return any Assets in its original condition and Seller agrees to accept returned Assets on an “As-Is” basis, subject to the terms of this Agreement;
b) Buyer shall retain the Assets defined in Section 1(C);
c) The Buyer shall grant the Seller a non-exclusive paid up license as to the Intellectual Property, including, without limitation, the use of the name/trade name “BAHAMA” and “BAHAMA BOATS” for the limited use of the sale of the WIP Boats.
20) DEVELOPMENT DISCONTINUATION AND RATCHET MECHANISM: As described in Sections 2(E) and 19(B)(i), the Parties may elect to sell the Bahama Boat brand, intellectual property, and related Assets. The Parties agree to implement a ratchet-based profit-sharing mechanism for the potential sale of the Bahama Boat brand, intellectual property, and related Assets.
A) If the Parties initiate a process to sell, divest, or otherwise monetize the Bahama brand or associated Assets at any time after Discontinuation, the net proceeds from such sale shall be shared between Buyer and Seller on a percentage basis that reflects the portion of the Purchase Price already received by Seller at the time of the sale. Once Seller has received the entire Purchase Price from its share of the sale, any remaining net proceeds shall be retained exclusively by Buyer.
i) For example, if Seller has received $1,500,000 of the Purchase Price, the net proceeds from a sale of the Bahama brand and related Assets shall be split evenly: fifty percent (50%) to Buyer and fifty percent (50%) to Seller, until Seller has received an additional $1,500,000 or the sales proceeds are exhausted.
ii) If Seller has received less than half of the Purchase Price, then the net proceeds shall be divided proportionally using the following formula:
Seller’s Pro-Rata Share of Sale Proceeds = (1 – (Amount Buyer Has Paid to Seller ÷ $3,000,000)) × 100%
9
This formula determines the percentage of net sale proceeds due to Seller until the Purchase Price is realized. Any amounts beyond this threshold shall be retained exclusively by Buyer.
B) The Parties agree that they shall keep each other reasonably informed of all material offers and negotiations.
21) SEVERABILITY: If any provision of this Agreement is declared invalid by any tribunal exercising competent jurisdiction, then such provision shall be deemed automatically adjusted to conform to the requirements for validity as declared at such time, and, as so adjusted, shall be deemed a provision of this Agreement as though originally included herein. In the event that the provision invalidated is of such a nature that it cannot be so adjusted, the provision shall be deemed deleted from this Agreement as though the provision had never been entered into. In either case, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
22) AUTHORIZATION AND BINDING OBLIGATION: Both Parties have the requisite power and authority to enter into and perform their obligations under this Agreement. This Agreement has been duly executed and constitutes the legal, valid, and binding obligations of the Parties.
23) NO WAIVER: The failure of any Party at any time to require performance by any other Party of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the right of such Party to require performance of that provision and any waiver by any Party of any breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any continuing or succeeding breach of such provisions, a waiver of the provision itself or a waiver of any right under this Agreement.
24) HEADINGS: The headings used herein are inserted for convenience only and are in no way intended to describe, interpret, define, or limit the scope, extent, or intent of this Agreement.
25) COUNTERPARTS: This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument, notwithstanding that all Parties are not a signatory to the original or the same counterpart.
