WHEREAS, Buyer desires to purchase from the Sellers, and the Sellers desire to sell to Buyer, the Mandara Shares; and

WHEREAS, in addition to the foregoing, Buyer desires to acquire from the Sellers, the Sellers' right, title and interest of in, to and under those certain Unsecured Promissory Notes, each dated as of May 11, 2000, made by Mandara in favor of each Seller, pursuant to which the Company is entitled to borrow up to an aggregate of $2,100,000 and pursuant to which no amounts have been borrowed to date (collectively, the "Seller Loans").

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the covenants and agreements herein contained, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Parties hereto agree as follows:

PURCHASE AND SALE OF MANDARA SHARES; SELLER LOANS

Purchase and Sale

. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing, the Sellers shall sell, assign, transfer and convey to Buyer all of their respective right, title and interest in and to: (a) the Mandara Shares, free and clear of any Liens (other than Permitted Liens), and (b) the Seller Loans.

The Closing

. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the consummation of the purchase and sale of the Mandara Shares and the Seller Loans, and the other transactions contemplated hereby (the "Closing") shall take place as promptly as practicable after satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VII (the "Closing Date") at the offices of Buyer, or such other time and place as the parties may otherwise agree; provided, however, in no event shall the Closing Date be earlier than July 1, 2001. The parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Closing Date to be July 2, 2001.

Consideration; Non-Refundable Deposit.

The consideration to be paid by Buyer for its purchase of the Mandara Shares and the Seller Loans (the "Consideration") shall be equal $8,880,000(the "Purchase Price"), subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 1.4 (the "Purchase Price Adjustment").
The Consideration shall be payable by Buyer to Sellers as follows (unless otherwise specified by Sellers in writing, all Consideration shall be allocated between the Sellers in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Percentages):

cash in an amount equal to $5,880,000;

99,825 shares of voting common shares, par value (U.S.) $.01 per share, of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (the "▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares"), which number of shares is equal to the quotient of (A) $1,600,000 divided by (B) $16.028, which is the average closing sale price of a share of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares as quoted on the NASDAQ National Market ("NASDAQ") for the twenty (20) consecutive trading days that immediately precede the second (2nd) trading day prior to the date hereof, as such closing sale prices are reported (absent manifest error in the printing thereof) by The Wall Street Journal (the "Average Closing Sale Price"). ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ has not purchased or caused to be purchased, and will not purchase or cause to be purchased, any ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares, whether pursuant to its share repurchase program or otherwise, during the period used to determine the Average Closing Sale Price. No fractional ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares will be issued. The ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Common Shares issued pursuant to this Section 1.3(b)(ii) are referred to herein as the

"▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Shares". With respect to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Shares, the Sellers shall be entitled to registration rights pursuant to the terms of a registration rights agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1.3(a)(ii) (the "Registration Rights Agreement"); and

an aggregate of $1,400,000 in the form of forty-two (42) month 9% Subordinated Notes executed by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in favor of Sellers, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1.3(a)(iii), which promissory notes shall bear interest at an annual rate of nine percent (9%), compounded quarterly (together with any additional promissory notes delivered to Sellers in respect of the Purchase Price Adjustment, the "Notes").

Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and/or Buyer shall pay to the Sellers, as a non-refundable deposit, cash in the aggregate amount of $1,000,000 (the "Non-Refundable Deposit"), which amount shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to one or more accounts designated by the Sellers in writing. The parties agree and acknowledge that the Non-Refundable Deposit shall not be subject to refund, repayment or recovery to or by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or Buyer, regardless of whether the Closing occurs or this Agreement is terminated, but in the event the Closing occurs, the amount of cash payable by Buyer to Sellers at Closing shall be reduced by the amount of the Non-Refundable Deposit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the payment of the Non-Refundable Deposit shall not be deemed to limit or restrict any rights to indemnification otherwise available to Buyer and/or ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ pursuant to Article IX hereof.
The Parties agree that the amount of the Purchase Price (as the same may be adjusted hereunder) allocated for income tax purposes to each "unrealized receivable" (as defined in Section 751(c) of the Code) and "inventory item" (as defined in Section 751(d) of the Code), and the Seller Loans shall not exceed the adjusted tax basis of each such asset as of the Closing Date. The parties shall file all Returns consistently with such allocation, and shall not voluntarily take any action inconsistent therewith upon examination of any Returns, in any refund claim, in any litigation, or otherwise with respect to such Returns unless required to pursuant to a "determination" (as defined in Section 1313(a) of the Code or any similar state, local or foreign Tax provision).
Purchase Price Adjustment

.Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Sellers a written determination (the "Determination") of the actual amount of the Working Capital of the Mandara Entities as of the Closing Date (the "Preliminary Working Capital Amount") and the actual aggregate cash balances of the Mandara Entities on the Closing Date (the "Preliminary Cash Balance Amount"), including the basis for such Determination set forth in reasonable detail, prepared in accordance with GAAP and expressed in United States dollars. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term "Working Capital" means the total consolidated non-cash current assets of the Mandara Entities that consist of trade accounts receivable, inventory and other prepaid

assets minus the total consolidated current liabilities of the Mandara Entities which consist of trade accounts payable and other accounts payable. Upon receipt of the Determination, Sellers shall have sixty (60) days (the "Review Period") to review such Determination and related computations of the Working Capital and the cash balances of the Mandara Entities on the Closing Date. During the Review Period, Buyer shall give Sellers and their representatives full access at all reasonable times to the books, records and other materials of Mandara Entities and the personnel of, and work papers prepared by or for the Buyer, the Mandara Entities or their respective accountants, including, without limitation, to such historical financial information relating to the Mandara Entities as the Sellers may reasonably request in order to permit the timely review of the Determination. If Sellers shall not have given written notice to Buyer setting forth in reasonable detail any objection of Sellers to such Determination (a "Working Capital Statement of Objections") prior to the expiration of the Review Period, then such Determination shall be final and binding upon the parties, and the Preliminary Working Capital Amount shall be deemed the Working Capital amount of the Mandara Entities as of the Closing Date (the "Final Working Capital Amount"), and the Preliminary Cash Balance Amount shall be deemed the aggregate cash balances of the Mandara Entities on the Closing Date (the "Final Cash Balance Amount"). In the event that Sellers deliver a Working Capital Statement of Objections during the Review Period, Buyer and Sellers shall use their reasonable efforts to agree on the amount of Working Capital and the cash balances of the Mandara Entities on the Closing Date within thirty (30) days following the receipt by Buyer of the Working Capital Statement of Objections. If the parties are unable to reach an agreement as to such amounts within such thirty (30) day period, then the matter shall be submitted to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP or, if ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP is unwilling or unable to serve in such capacity, another "big five" accountant mutually acceptable to Buyer and Sellers (such accountant, the "Settlement Accountant"), who, acting as an expert and not as an arbitrator, shall resolve the matters still in dispute and adjust the Determination to reflect such resolution and establish the Final Working Capital Amount and the Final Cash Balance Amount; provided, however, that the Settlement Accountant may not determine an amount of Working Capital or a cash balance amount in excess of those claimed by Sellers or less than those claimed by Buyer. The Settlement Accountant shall make such determination within forty-five (45) days following the submission of the matter to the Settlement Accountant for resolution, and such determination shall be final and binding upon Buyer and the Sellers. Buyer and Sellers shall contribute equally to all costs (including fees and expenses charged by the Settlement Accountant) in connection with the resolution of any such dispute.

The parties agree that, at Closing, the Working Capital of the Mandara Entities should be $240,000 (the "Target Working Capital Amount") and the aggregate cash balances of the Mandara Entities should be $512,000 (the "Target Cash Balance Amount").
In the event that (i) the Final Working Capital Amount is greater than the Target Working Capital Amount (such excess, the "Excess Working Capital Amount"), the Purchase Price shall be increased by, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall pay to Sellers, an amount equal to sixty percent (60%) of such Excess Working Capital Amount, or (ii) the Final Cash Balance Amount is

greater than the Target Cash Balance Amount (such excess, the "Excess Cash Balance Amount"), the Purchase Price shall be increased by, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall pay to Sellers, an amount equal to sixty percent (60%) of such Excess Cash Balance Amount, subject to the provisions of Section 1.4(e)(iii). Any payments due under this Section 1.4(c) shall be made by cash payments to Sellers within five (5) business days following the determination of the final amounts pursuant to Section 1.4(a).

In the event that (i) the Final Working Capital Amount is less than the Target Working Capital Amount (such deficiency, the "Working Capital Deficiency"), the Purchase Price shall be reduced by, and Sellers shall pay to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, within five (5) business days following the determination of the final amounts pursuant to Section 1.4(a), an amount equal to sixty percent (60%) of such Working Capital Deficiency, or (ii) the Final Cash Balance Amount is less than the Target Cash Balance Amount (such deficiency, the "Cash Balance Deficiency"), the Purchase Price shall be reduced by, and Sellers shall pay to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, within five (5) business days following the determination of the final amounts pursuant to Section 1.4(a), an amount equal to sixty percent (60%) of such Cash Balance Deficiency, subject to the provisions of Section 1.4(e)(iv). ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall have the option to require Sellers to make any payment required under this Section 1.4(d) in cash or to reduce the principal amount of the Notes. In the event that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ elects to require Sellers to make such payment in cash, Sellers shall pay such amount (together with an amount equal to the equivalent of interest thereon at an annual rate of nine percent (9%), compounded quarterly, from the Closing Date through the date of payment) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. In the event that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ elects to satisfy such payment obligation by reduction of the principal amount of the Notes ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall provide written notice of such election to Sellers and each Seller shall, within five (5) business days following receipt of such written notice, deliver to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ at ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ election, the original of any Note with respect to which ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ is entitled to make such a reduction against delivery to such Seller of a replacement promissory note in the proper reduced principal amount (which replacement promissory note shall be deemed a "Note" for the purposes of this Agreement). If any of the Sellers shall fail to deliver its respective Note to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, (i) such note shall automatically, and without further action, be deemed amended to reflect the reduction of the principal amount of such Note in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence and (ii) such Seller shall be estopped from collecting, or enforcing its rights with respect to, any principal (or any interest accruing thereon) otherwise subject to reduction in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.
In addition to the foregoing, with respect to the cash balances of the Mandara Entities, the parties further agree as follows: (i) with respect to each jurisdiction in which the Mandara Entities maintain cash accounts, the actual cash balances of the Mandara Entities at Closing in each such jurisdiction shall be within ten percent (10%) of the amounts set forth for such jurisdiction on Exhibit 1.4(e) (the "Jurisdictional Cash Balance Targets); (ii) any distributions or dividends made by any of the Mandara Entities prior to the Closing in accordance with this Agreement shall be made with respect to such jurisdictions in such a manner and by such Mandara Entities so as to comply with the Jurisdictional Cash Balance Targets; (iii) in the event that the actual cash balance of the Mandara Entities at Closing exceeds one hundred ten

percent (110%) of the Jurisdictional Cash Balance Target in any jurisdiction that seeks to impose withholding Taxes with respect to dividends, distributions or other repatriations of cash from such jurisdiction (as indicated on Exhibit 1.4(e)), then the amount of the excess cash balance in such jurisdiction shall be deemed to be net of any withholding Taxes that would otherwise be payable on such excess cash amount upon the dividend, distribution or other repatriation thereof (the "Net Cash Balance Amount"), and, for the purposes of determining whether Sellers are entitled any payments in respect of any Excess Cash Balance Amount pursuant to Section 1.4(c) and, if so, the amount thereof, such Excess Cash Balance Amount shall be calculated using the Net Cash Balance Amounts, if any, with respect to any applicable withholding Tax jurisdiction.

Guaranteed EBITDA Surplus Amount

Each of the Sellers, severally and not jointly, hereby guarantees, solely to the extent of its respective Percentage Interest, that for the period from July 1, 2001 through December 31, 2002 (the "Test Period"), the Actual EBITDA Surplus Amount (as hereinafter defined) of the Mandara Entities shall not be less than $2,885,580 (such amount, the "Guaranteed EBITDA Surplus Amount"). For the purposes of this Agreement, "Actual EBITDA Surplus Amount" shall mean the amount of the actual EBITDA (as hereinafter defined) of the Mandara Entities earned during the Test Period less the Additional Capital Expenses (as hereinafter defined), if any, incurred during the Test Period.
For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings specified below:

"EBITDA" means the actual cumulative consolidated earnings of the Mandara Entities before interest income, interest expense, Taxes, depreciation and amortization, as determined in accordance with GAAP, consistent with the Mandara Entities' past practices, less any EBITDA Exclusion Amounts. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree and acknowledge that (A) EBITDA shall include the results of operations of Mandara Spa Thailand as adjusted to reflect the Company's forty-nine percent (49%) interest therein, and (B) the operations of any Approved Pipeline Project (as defined in Section 8.4(b) below) shall be taken into account for the purposes of determining EBITDA.

"EBITDA Exclusion Amounts" means any earnings or losses generated by any Excluded Project (as defined in Section 8.5(b) below).

"Additional Capital Expenses" shall mean an amount equal to the equivalent of interest at twelve percent (12%) per annum on any amounts actually expended by the Mandara Entities following the Closing Date in accordance with this Agreement in respect of an Approved Pipeline Project (as defined in Section 8.4(b), below) (excluding any unreasonable expenses required by Buyer or ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇); provided, however, that Buyer shall deliver to the Sellers a statement of all such costs in respect of any Approved Pipeline

Project certified by a senior executive officer of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, together with such additional documentation as may be reasonably required to establish that such costs were related to such projects.

As promptly as practicable after the end of the expiration Test Period (but in no event later than March 31, 2003), Buyer shall (i) determine the amount of the actual EBITDA of the Mandara Entities and the Additional Capital Expenses, if any, for the Test Period, in each case based upon financial statements prepared and audited by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP or another "big five" accountant ("Buyer's Accountant"), and (ii) deliver to Sellers a written statement thereof, certified by an executive officer of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, together with such additional documentation as may be reasonably required to support Buyer's determination (such written statement, the "EBITDA Statement"). Upon receipt of the EBITDA Statement, Sellers shall have sixty (60) days (the "EBITDA Review Period") to review such EBITDA Statement and related computations of the actual EBITDA of the Mandara Entities and any Additional Capital Expenses. During the EBITDA Review Period, Buyer shall give Sellers and their representatives full access at all reasonable times to the books, records and other materials of Mandara Entities and the personnel of, and work papers prepared by or for, the Buyer, the Mandara Entities or their respective accountants, including, without limitation, to such historical financial information relating to the Mandara Entities as the Sellers may reasonably request in order to permit the timely review of the EBITDA Statement. If Sellers shall not have given written notice to Buyer setting forth in reasonable detail any objection of Sellers to such EBITDA Statement (an "EBITDA Statement of Objections") prior to the expiration of the EBITDA Review Period, then such EBITDA Statement shall be final and binding upon the parties. In the event that Sellers deliver an EBITDA Statement of Objections during the EBITDA Review Period, Buyer and Sellers shall use all reasonable efforts to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days following the receipt by Buyer of the EBITDA Statement of Objections. If the parties are unable to reach an agreement as to the amount of the actual EBITDA and/or any Additional Capital Expenses within such thirty (30) day period, then the matter shall be submitted to the Settlement Accountant, who, acting as an expert and not as an arbitrator, shall resolve the matters still in dispute and adjust the EBITDA Statement to reflect such resolution and establish the final actual amount of EBITDA and Additional Capital Expenses; provided, however, that the Settlement Accountant may not determine an amount of EBITDA in excess of that claimed by Sellers or less than that claimed by Buyer, or an amount of Additional Capital Expenses in excess of those claimed by Buyer or less than those claimed by Sellers. The Settlement Accountant shall make such determination within forty-five (45) days following the submission of the matter for resolution, and such determination shall be final and binding upon Buyer and the Sellers. Buyer and Sellers shall contribute equally to all costs (including fees and expenses charged by the Settlement Accountant) in connection with the resolution of any such dispute. Following the determination of the final actual EBITDA amount and amount of Additional Expenses, if any, the parties shall calculate the Actual EBITDA Surplus Amount in accordance with Section 1.5(a).
In the event that the Guaranteed EBITDA Surplus Amount exceeds the Actual EBITDA Surplus Amount, then ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall have the right to reduce the aggregate

principal amount of the Notes by an amount equal to the product of (i) the amount by which the Guaranteed EBITDA Surplus Amount exceeds the Actual EBITDA Surplus Amount, multiplied by (ii) sixty percent (60%) (such amount, the "Shortfall Amount"). In addition, to the extent ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ has made payments of interest with respect to that portion of the principal amount of the Notes to be reduced pursuant to this Section 1.5(d) (the "Reimbursable Interest Amount"), ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall also have the right to recoup the Reimbursable Interest Amount by a further reduction of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes by an amount equal to the Reimbursable Interest Amount; provided, however, that Sellers shall have the option of paying ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ the Reimbursable Interest Amount in cash within five (5) business days following the determination of the final Shortfall Amount, in which case ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall have no right to further reduce the principal amount of the Notes (unless and until Sellers shall fail to make such cash payment in respect of any Reimbursable Interest Amount). The aggregate reductions of the Notes made by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in accordance with this Section 1.5(d) are referred to herein as the "EBITDA Note Reductions." All EBITDA Note Reductions shall be made pro rata between the Notes held by each of the Sellers in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Percentages. Each Seller shall deliver to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ the original of any Note with respect to which ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ is entitled to make an EBITDA Note Reduction against delivery to such Seller of a replacement promissory note in the proper reduced principal amount (which replacement promissory note shall be deemed a "Note" for the purposes of this Agreement). If any of the Sellers shall fail to deliver its respective Note to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, (i) such Note shall automatically, and without further action, be deemed amended to reflect the reduction of the principal amount of such Note in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence and (ii) such Seller shall be estopped from collecting, or enforcing its rights with respect to, any principal (or any interest accruing thereon) otherwise subject to reduction in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. In the event that the aggregate amount of the EBITDA Note Reductions exceeds the aggregate principal amount of the Notes: (i) the Notes shall be automatically cancelled and Sellers shall surrender the originals of the Notes to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ for cancellation, and (ii) each Seller shall pay to Buyer the amount by which such Seller's Pro Rata Percentage of the aggregate Shortfall Amount exceeds the principal amount of the such Seller's Note at the time of such reduction. Any amounts to be paid by Sellers in cash pursuant to this Section 1.5(d) shall be paid within five (5) business days after the determination of the final Shortfall Amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account or accounts as shall be designated in writing by the recipient no later than one business day prior to the payment date.

Approved Pipeline Projects

At the Closing or as soon as practicable thereafter, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Sellers shall each deliver to the other a list of all land-based spa development opportunities that are being actively pursued by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or the Mandara Entities, as the case may be, as of the Closing Date (such projects, the "Pipeline Projects"). For the purposes of this Agreement, the term "actively pursued" shall mean that (i) good faith oral and/or written communications commenced prior to April 1, 2001 and are continuing with a third party owner/operator with respect to such development opportunity; and (ii) the development opportunity is one which ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or the applicable Mandara Entity, as the case may be, believes in good faith it is capable of being awarded and, if awarded, developing consistent with the anticipated terms and conditions of such project. In the event that either ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, on the one hand, or Sellers, on the other hand, dispute the inclusion or attempted inclusion of a Pipeline Project on the list delivered to it hereunder, the Parties shall attempt to resolve such dispute in good faith (including, without limitation, providing the Party(ies) objecting to the inclusion or attempted inclusion such evidence as such disputing Party(ies) may reasonably request to establish that the Pipeline Project in question was actively pursued within the time periods specified herein). In the event that the Parties are unable to resolve any such disputes within ten (10) business days following the Closing, they shall jointly select a mutually acceptable third party (it being agreed that any "big five" accountant shall be deemed mutually acceptable), who shall determine whether the project in question properly constitutes a Pipeline Project of the Party claiming the same within the meaning of this Agreement. Such mutually acceptable third party shall make such determination within thirty (30) days following the submission of the matter to it for resolution, and such determination shall be final and binding upon the Parties. If the project is determined to be a Pipeline Project, the Party(ies) that challenged its inclusion as a Pipeline Project shall bear the expense of the such third party; if the project is determined not to be a Pipeline Project, the Party(ies) that initially sought its inclusion shall bear the expense of the such third party.
With respect to any Pipeline Projects that are included on the list delivered by Sellers, and which are not on the list delivered by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (such projects, the "Mandara Pipeline Projects"), the parties agree that each such project shall be deemed an "Approved Pipeline Project" in the event that (i) Buyer desires to have the Mandara Entities develop or commit to develop such Mandara Pipeline Project and delivers written notice to such effect to Sellers prior to the six month anniversary of the Closing Date; and (ii) Shiseido Co., Ltd. (or any Affiliate thereof) agrees to fund its proportional share of any development expenses estimated to be incurred in connection with such Mandara Pipeline Project or to an appropriate reduction in its percentage ownership interest of Mandara as a result of Buyer's funding such amount. With respect to each Approved Pipeline Project, the parties agree that, during the Test Period: (i) Buyer shall cause the Mandara Entities to fund and develop each Approved Pipeline Project in

accordance with the development schedule established therefor (which development schedule shall be mutually agreeable to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Sellers); (ii) Sellers shall have the option to have any EBITDA resulting from or otherwise generated by any of such Approved Pipeline Projects be included in the EBITDA of the Mandara Entities for the purposes of the calculations under Section 1.5; and (iii) in the event Sellers elect to have such EBITDA included in the calculation of EBITDA pursuant to the foregoing clause (ii), any amounts actually expended by the Mandara Entities to construct and fit out the Approved Pipeline Projects shall be used to determine the amount of Additional Capital Expenses pursuant to Section 1.5(b)(iv).

The parties agree that, except for Approved Pipeline Projects, prior to the six month anniversary of the Closing Date, none of the Mandara Entities, Buyer, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or any of their Affiliates shall, directly or indirectly, develop, construct, pursue or otherwise undertake (or agree to do any of the foregoing) any Mandara Pipeline Project without the prior written consent of the Sellers; provided, however, that this restriction shall not apply to any Mandara Pipeline Project with respect to which Shiseido Co., Ltd. (or any of its Affiliates) refuses to fund its proportional share of any estimated development expenses or does not agree to an appropriate reduction in its percentage ownership interest of Mandara as a result of Buyer's funding such amount.
Additional Agreement with respect to Development Projects

Except for any Approved Pipeline Projects that Sellers elect to have included in EBITDA calculations pursuant to Section 8.4(b) and other projects that the parties hereafter agree in writing shall be included in the EBITDA calculations under Section 1.5, the parties agree that, during the Test Period, the Mandara Entities shall not undertake or agree to undertake any other spa development projects without the consent of the Operational Manager, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld (it being agreed that the Operational Manager shall be entitled to take into account the interests of the Sellers in determining whether or not to consent to such any of such spa development projects).
Except for any Approved Pipeline Projects that Sellers elect to have included in EBITDA calculations pursuant to Section 8.4(b) and other projects that the parties hereafter agree in writing shall be included in the EBITDA calculations under Section 1.5, the parties agree that, during the Test Period, no income or expenses from any other development projects, operations or spa facilities of the Mandara Entities (collectively, the "Excluded Projects") shall be included for the purposes of the EBITDA calculations under Section 1.5.

INDEMNIFICATION

Survival of Representations and Warranties

. The representations and warranties set forth in Article II, Article III and Article IV and in any

certification thereof delivered in connection herewith will terminate and expire on the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date, except (a) the representations and warranties in Section 2.21 and Section 2.22 will survive until the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitation (including all periods of extension and tolling), if any; (b) the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.6, 2.7, 2.8, 3.1, 3.2, 3.6, 3.7, 4.1, 4.2, 4.6, and 4.7 shall survive indefinitely; and (c) the representations and warranties in Section 2.12 will survive until the third anniversary of the Closing Date. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, a party shall have the right to commence Litigation after the expiration of any of the above-specified time periods with respect to claims as to which proper notice was provided to the party against which such claim is being asserted prior to the expiration of such time period.

Agreement by the Sellers to Indemnify

. Each of the Sellers agrees to indemnify and hold the Buyer and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and each of its subsidiaries, officers, directors, employees, Affiliates, successors and assigns (collectively, the "Buyer Indemnified Parties") harmless from and against the aggregate of all expenses, losses, costs, deficiencies, liabilities and damages (including, without limitation, reasonable related counsel and paralegal fees and expenses) incurred or suffered by the Buyer Indemnified Parties arising out of or resulting from:

any breach of a representation or warranty made jointly and severally by the Sellers in Article II of this Agreement;
any breach of a representation or warranty made severally by any of the Sellers in Article III of this Agreement;
any breach of the covenants or agreements made by any of the Sellers in Sections 1.4 or 1.5, or Article X of this Agreement; or
any breach of the covenants or agreements made by any of the Sellers in this Agreement (other than the covenants or agreements made severally by any of the Sellers pursuant to Sections 1.4 or 1.5, or Article X of this Agreement),
The indemnification obligations of the Sellers shall be: (i) several, and not joint, with respect to claims under Section 9.2(b) and Section 9.2(c) (it being agreed that no Seller shall have any liability hereunder other than with respect breaches of the representations, warranties and covenants referenced to in such sections by such Seller); and (ii) joint and several with respect to claims under Section 9.2(a) or Section 9.2(d). For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree and acknowledge that any Indemnifiable Damages of the Buyer Indemnified Parties hereunder shall be determined, calculated and limited to the amount of the Indemnifiable Damages incurred by Buyer/▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in respect thereof (e.g., if a breach of a Seller representation represents $1,000,000 in damages to Mandara Spa Asia Limited, the harm to, and Indemnifiable Damages of, the Buyer Indemnified Parties in respect thereof would be $600,000 (i.e., Buyer's 60% ownership interest in Mandara Spa Asia Limited multiplied by $1,000,000)).

Agreement by the Buyer and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to Indemnify

. Each of the Buyer and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, jointly and severally, agrees to indemnify and hold each of the

Sellers and their respective members, managers, officers, directors and successors thereof (the "Seller Indemnified Parties") harmless from and against the aggregate of all expenses, losses, costs, deficiencies, liabilities and damages (including, without limitation, related reasonable counsel and paralegal fees and expenses) incurred or suffered by the Seller Indemnified Parties arising out of or resulting from:

any breach of a representation or warranty made by the Buyer or ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in this Agreement; or
any breach of the covenants or agreements made by the Buyer or ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in this Agreement.

Third Party Actions

. With respect to each claim made by a third party for which an Indemnified Party (as hereinafter defined) seeks indemnification under this Article IX (a "Third Party Claim"), the Indemnified Party shall give prompt notice to the Indemnifying Party (as hereinafter defined) of the Third Party Claim, provided that failure to give such notice promptly shall not relieve or limit the obligations of the Indemnifying Party unless the Indemnifying Party has been materially prejudiced thereby (and such failure to notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve it or him from any other liability he or it may have to the Indemnified Party). The Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend the Indemnified Party against any Third Party Claim with counsel of their choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party so long as and to the extent that (a) the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing, within fifteen (15) days after receipt from the Indemnified Party of notice of the claim, that the Indemnifying Party will indemnify the Indemnified Party, to the extent provided in this Agreement, from and against any damages with respect to which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under Section 9.2 or Section 9.3 hereof (collectively, "Indemnifiable Damages") that the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the claim; (b) the claim seeks the recovery of solely money damages and does not contain a claim for an injunction, specific performance, a declaration of rights or other equitable relief; and (c) the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the claim actively and diligently. If there is a conflict of interest, however, that would prevent counsel for the Indemnifying Party from also representing the Indemnified Party as reasonably determined by the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select separate counsel to participate in the defense of such action on behalf of the Indemnified Party.

the amount of any Indemnifiable Damages claimed by any Buyer Indemnified Party hereunder shall be net of any insurance, indemnity, contribution or other payments or recoveries of a like nature with respect thereto actually realized by such Buyer Indemnified Parties (it being agreed that, promptly after the realization of any such reductions of Indemnifiable Damages pursuant hereto, such Buyer Indemnified Party shall reimburse Sellers for such reduction in Indemnifiable Damages for which such Buyer Indemnified Party was indemnified prior to the realization of such reductions of Indemnifiable Damages);
notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event that an Indemnifying Party can establish that an Indemnified Party had actual knowledge, on or before the date of this Agreement, of a breach of a representation or warranty of the Indemnifying Party upon which a claim for indemnification by the Indemnified Party is based, then the Indemnifying Party shall have no liability for any indemnified losses resulting from or arising out of such claim; provided, however, that this limitation shall not apply with respect to any breach of a representation or warranty known to the Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnified Party provided written notice of to the Indemnifying Party prior to the date of this Agreement;
in the event that Sellers are required to make any payments pursuant to a claim for Indemnifiable Damages, Sellers shall have the option of paying and satisfying all or any portion of such claim by a reduction, on a dollar for dollar basis, of the outstanding principal amount, if any, of the Notes, it being agreed that any such reduction shall be made in a pro rata manner as between the Sellers based on based on their Pro Rata Percentages (and Buyer and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ hereby agree that, while any amounts remain payable under the Notes, they shall not enter into any agreement or arrangement that would otherwise prohibit, restrict or otherwise limit Sellers right to offset pursuant to this Agreement and/or any of the Notes);
the amount of any Indemnifiable Damages claimed by any Buyer Indemnified Party hereunder shall be reduced to take into account any net reduction in any Tax liability realized by such Buyer Indemnified Party in connection with the Indemnifiable Damages for which indemnification is sought hereunder (it being agreed that, promptly after the realization of any such reductions of Indemnifiable Damages pursuant hereto, such Buyer Indemnified Party shall reimburse Sellers for such reduction in Indemnifiable Damages for which such Buyer Indemnified Party was indemnified prior to the realization of such reductions of Indemnifiable Damages); and

Remedies Exclusive

.

Acknowledgement Regarding Materiality

.

Non-Solicitation of Customers and Suppliers. Except as provided in Section 10.1(a) or in this Section 10.1(b), each Non-Compete Party covenants and agrees that for a period of three (3) years following the Closing Date, he shall not, whether as an individual or sole proprietor, or as a principal, agent, officer, director, employer, employee, consultant, independent contractor, partner or shareholder of any firm, corporation or other entity or group or otherwise, directly or indirectly, solicit the trade or business of, or trade, or conduct business with, any customer, prospective customer, supplier, or prospective supplier of the Company for any purpose other than for the benefit of the Company, except in connection with a Permitted Activity; provided, however, that in no event shall any Non-Compete Party, whether in connection with a Permitted Activity or otherwise: (i) with respect to any Competing Business, solicit the trade or business of, or trade, or conduct business with any passengers on any passenger cruise vessel on which, or guests at any hotel or resort at which, the Company operates a spa facility (the "Likely Potential Customers") while such persons are passengers aboard such vessel or guests at such resort; or (ii) take any action intended to cause a Likely Potential Customer to patronize a spa facility in which the Non-Compete Party has an interest instead of the spa facilities operated by the Company (including, without limitation, placing any advertising signs in the area of the Area Restriction, soliciting individuals on Company mailing lists or similar actions), it being agreed that nothing in this proviso is intended to otherwise prevent or prohibit any Non-Compete Party from using traditional advertising, marketing and promotional channels in connection with Non-Compete Party's engagement in any Permitted Activity.

Damages

. Because of the difficulty of measuring economic losses to Buyer as a result of any breach by a Non-Compete Party of the covenants in Section 10.1, and because of the immediate and irreparable damage that could be caused to Buyer for which it would have no other adequate remedy, each Non-Compete Party agrees that Buyer may enforce the provisions of Section 10.1 by injunctions and restraining orders against such Non-Compete Party without the posting of a bond or other security, if such Non-Compete Party breaches any of those provisions.

Reasonable Restraint

Independent Covenant

. All the covenants in this Article X are intended by each Party to, and shall be construed as an agreement independent of any other provision in this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action of any Non-Compete Party against Buyer, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by Buyer of any covenant in this Article X. It is specifically agreed that the period specified in Section 10.1 shall be computed in the case of each Non-Compete Party by excluding from that computation any time during which that Non-Compete Party is in violation of any provision of Section 10.1, above. The covenants contained in this Article X shall not be affected by any breach of any other provision hereof by any party hereto.

Materiality
