OBLIGATIONS OF MFI DURING TERM OF AGREEMENT

A.

MINIMUM SKU COUNT

1.

Without a Second National Brand

a.: Without BOS Breach—If MFI meets the BOS requirement of this Agreement and MFI has not placed and is not selling at least [*] different beds of a National Brand Premium Product in at least [*] of its stores ("National Brand Placement"), then MFI shall

Confidential Information Redacted

have no minimum Sku requirements for either Sealy Product or Sealy Premium Products.

b.: After BOS Breach—If the BOS requirements under this Agreement are breached during any Review Period and MFI during such Review Period has not had a National Brand Placement; then (subject to the terms below) within forty-five (45) days after the end of said Review Period MFI shall maintain a minimum of [*] Sku's of Sealy Product of which [*] Sku's will be Sealy Premium Products for so long as MFI is in breach of the BOS requirements (including extensions, if any) ("Standard Minimum Sku Count").

2.

Without a Second National Brand Placement

a.: SKU Requirement with a Second Brand—If MFI makes a National Brand Placement, then (subject to the provisions below) MFI agrees to maintain a Minimum Sku Count of at least [*] Sku's of Sealy Products (of which [*] Sku's will be Sealy Premium Products), for so long as MFI has a National Brand Placement (including extensions, if any) ("Standard Minimum Sku Count").
▇.: ▇▇▇▇▇ Net Competitive Exception—If all of the following factors exist:

i. MFI has a National Brand Placement,

ii. MFI has breached during a Review Period any of its BOS requirements under this Agreement,

iii. During the same Review Period Sealy is not "Competitive" (as defined below), and

iv. Sealy for the same Review Period has a lower "Performance Factor" than MFI (as defined below);

then, during any Cure Period related to such breach MFI's minimum Sku requirement shall be reduced to [*] Sku's of Sealy Product of which [*] Sku's will be Sealy Premium Products ("Competitive Breach Minimum Sku Count").

Collectively, the Standard Minimum Sku Count and the Competitive Breach Minimum Sku Count shall be known as the "Minimum Sku Count". The Minimum Sku Count shall exclude Clearance Bedding and shall apply to each of MFI's retail stores with more than [*] square feet of showroom. In MFI stores with less than [*] square feet of showroom space or in MFI clearance centers, MFI will keep the ratio of national brands the same as the ratio in MFI's retail stores with more than [*] square feet of showroom. Information

Confidential Information Redacted

regarding MFI's Sku Count shall be provided by MFI to Sealy on a quarterly basis.

B.: MINIMUM SEALY PREMIUM PRODUCTS BOS

MFI agrees that it will provide Sealy Equitable Floor Treatment so as to allow Sealy to meet a BOS of [*] for Sealy Premium Products during each Review Period, provided that Sealy Premium Products are "Competitive" as defined below.

C.: MINIMUM SEALY PRODUCTS BOS

MFI agrees that it will provide Sealy Equitable Floor Treatment so as to allow Sealy to meet a BOS of [*] for Sealy Products during each Review Period. MFI can comply with this [*] BOS requirement if: (i) at least [*] of MFI's sales of all Products during the relevant period are Sealy Promotional Products; and (ii) MFI is either in compliance with the [*] BOS for Sealy Premium Products or MFI's non-compliance with such [*] BOS requirement is deemed to not be a breach under the terms of this Agreement.

D.: CONSEQUENCES IN THE EVENT MFI FAILS TO MEET MINIMUM BOS

To the extent that during any Contract Year, MFI does not meet the Minimum Sealy Premium Products BOS and/or the Minimum Sealy Products BOS, and Sealy is Competitive as defined below, MFI shall be in breach of Minimum BOS provisions of this Agreement and the terms set out below shall apply:

In the event that MFI is in breach of the Minimum BOS provisions of this Section, MFI can cure during the Cure Period by purchasing additional Sealy Promotional Products or Sealy Premium Products, as the case may be, to increase its BOS. If MFI does not cure the breach of the Minimum BOS by the end of the Cure Period, then a new 6-month extension period will be added onto the Base Term of this Agreement. Each additional six-month period that MFI fails to cure (whether or not successive) will result in another 6-month extension to the Base Term of this Agreement, up to six half-year (six month) extensions for a total of three years.

To the extent that during any Review Period, MFI is not meeting the Sealy Premium Products BOS or the Sealy Products BOS, but Sealy is not Competitive as defined below, a mathematical calculation will be made to determine whether MFI's Performance Factor is lower than Sealy's Performance Factor (as set out below in Section 7.D.). If Sealy's Performance Factor is lower than MFI's Performance Factor, all of the Cures and consequences set out below in Section 7 apply, and MFI shall be deemed not to be in breach of this clause of the Agreement. If both parties are in breach, Sealy nevertheless must cure during the Cure Period as defined below, and MFI must continue to maintain the Minimum Sku Count as defined above and MFI is obligated to the MFI Cure set out below.

7.: CONDITIONS FOR MAINTAINING REQUIRED BOS

MFI's obligations to maintain the BOS requirements set out above in Section 6 above shall be conditioned on Sealy Premium Products being Competitive with the National Brand Premium Products displayed and sold at MFI's stores. Sealy Competitiveness shall be defined as follows:

Confidential Information Redacted

A. Competitive Sealy Premium Products. Sealy Premium Products are Competitive, if during any Review Period, MFI's aggregate sales of Sealy Premium Products at all MFI stores during that period divided by the average number of Sealy Premium Products displayed on the floors at MFI are equal or better than the aggregate sales of the other National Branch Premium Product divided by the average number of the other National Brand's Premium Products displayed on MFI's floors. To the extent that different MFI stores display and sell different Sealy Products and/or National Brand Premium Products, each MFI store shall aggregate and divide and then the amounts shall be totaled across all stores to determine whether Sealy Products or Sealy Premium Products are Competitive across all MFI stores. If MFI does not display and sell at least [*] different beds of a National Branch Premium Product in at least [*] of its stores, then Sealy's Premium Product shall be deemed to be fully Competitive and Sealy's Performance Factor shall be deemed to be a greater percentage than MFI's Performance Factor.

As an example only, if the total sales of Sealy Premium Products for January 1, 2004 through June 30, 2004 are [*] and MFI has displayed an average of [*] models of Sealy Premium Products at its stores, then Sealy Premium Products sales per displayed unit are [*]. If MFI sells [*] of the other National Brand Premium Products and displays an average of [*] models of the National Brand Premium Products at its stores then the National Brand Premium Products sales per displayed unit are [*] and as Sealy's sales per displayed unit is higher than the National Brand's Premium Product, then Sealy Premium Products are "Competitive."

B.: Consequences of Sealy's Failure to be Competitive.

If during the Initial Review Period (or any other Review Period), Sealy Premium Products are not Competitive as defined above in this Section 7, then the parties agree to work during the six months immediately following the written notification of Non-Compliance (known as the "Cure Period") in an effort to cure the Non-Compliance(s) and return Sealy Products or Sealy Premium Products to Competitiveness. MFI will also have the following remedies during the Cure Period for such Premium Products Competitiveness breach:

i.: MFI is relieved of its Minimum Premium Product BOS Requirements

If Sealy fails to be Competitive on Premium Products and Sealy's Performance Factor is lower than MFI's Performance Factor, MFI does not have to meet the Minimum Sealy Premium Product BOS and may continue to do so until Sealy meets its Competitiveness obligation.

ii.: MFI may decrease the display of Sealy product(s).

If Sealy cannot cure and cannot again become Competitive on Premium Products during the Cure Period, and MFI has met its obligation to provide Sealy Equitable Floor Treatment (and MFI's Performance Factor is equal to or greater than Sealy's Performance Factor, after the Cure Period, MFI may decrease Sealy's Minimum Sku Count to [*] (no fewer than [*] Sealy Premium Products) (or less for stores under [*] square feet of showroom floor but nevertheless in ratio to MFI stores that have over [*] square feet) during the Period in which Sealy is not Competitive on Premium Products. Should Sealy again become Competitive on

Confidential Information Redacted

Premium Products as determined on a subsequent Review Date, MFI is obligated to return to the Sealy Product and Sealy Premium Product Minimum BOS requirements and the Non-Breach Minimum Sku Count.

C.: MFI's Failure to achieve notwithstanding Sealy's Competitiveness.

To the extent that MFI does not achieve the Sealy Product BOS of [*] or Sealy Premium Product [*] BOS and Sealy is Competitive as set out above, then Section 6 applies. During any Breach and Cure Period, both parties are obligated to work together to cure the Breach.

D.: Performance Factor.

If MFI does not achieve the [*] Sealy Premium Product BOS and Sealy Premium Product is not Competitive, then there shall be a determination of which party is "more in breach." If Sealy's Performance Factor is a greater percentage than MFI's Performance Factor percentage, then MFI shall be deemed to be in breach. If MFI's Performance Factor is a greater percentage than or equal to Sealy's Performance Factor percentage, then Sealy shall be deemed to be in breach for purposes of Premium Products under Section 6 and 7 of this Agreement.

The following are various illustrations of possible Performance Factor scenarios in practical terms: [*]

Sealy is not in breach; MFI is in breach because its Sealy Premium Product BOS is below the requisite [*] minimum. [*]

Confidential Information Redacted

Sealy is in breach because its performance against the other National Brand Premium Product is less than 100%, but MFI is "more in breach" because MFI's Sealy Premium Product BOS is at [*] of the BOS target, while Sealy's percentage performance is better at [*] vis a vis the other National Brand Premium Product. [*]

Sealy is in breach because its performance rate is only [*] against the other brand and MFI is achieving a greater [*] of its Sealy Premium Product minimum BOS.

E.: Dispute Resolution Regarding BOS, Product Mix or Competitiveness.

To the extent that the parties dispute whether there is a default of this clause or any other clause of this Agreement, either party may resort to the terms of the Mediation/Arbitration Clause set out below in Section 27, upon written notice to the other part setting forth the issue in dispute subject to mediation or arbitration.

8.: MINIMUM STORES

During the term of this Agreement, MFI shall continuously own and operate at least [*] MFI mattress retail stores (not including leased departments or franchisee stores). Sealy acknowledges and agrees that, in the event that MFI breaches its obligations pursuant to this Section 8 and such breach is not cured within 30 days following notice thereof from Sealy, Sealy shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, which right of termination shall be Sealy's sole and exclusive remedy, whether at law or in equity for such breach. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such termination shall not release MFI from its obligations incurred as a result of actions taken during the term of this Agreement, including the obligation to pay for goods ordered and received under this Agreement prior to termination.

9.: CO-OP ADVERTISING, PROMO, REBATES AND SUBSIDIES

During the term of this Agreement, Sealy shall monthly accrue total trade support funds for MFI in an amount equal to [*] of Net Purchases ("Net Purchases" shall mean purchases less cash discounts and returns allowances) of Sealy Premium Products by MFI during the preceding month and to [*] of Net Purchases of Sealy Products

Confidential Information Redacted

other than Sealy Premium Products by MFI during the preceding month. Such funds will be credited monthly to MFI's account with Sealy within 10 days of month-end close. Effective with the execution of this Agreement, Sealy will provide MFI, within 10 days of Sealy's month-end, with an electronic listing of the invoices to which such monthly credit applies ("Electronic Listing"). MFI will apply earned credits on a dollar-for-dollar basis against the amount due on invoices paid in the month subsequent to when the prior month's credit is provided. Sealy shall work diligently to develop the capability to show earned credits on the face of individual purchase invoices. Once Sealy provides earned credits on the face of individual purchase invoices, MFI will thereafter have the option, but not the requirement, to apply such credits directly against the payment of the invoice on which the credit was earned. In the event that payment of all accounts is not made in a timely manner by MFI or all accounts with Sealy are not current, the trade support funds attributable to any outstanding invoice that has not been paid within its prescribed payment terms will accrue, but will not be credited, until such time as payment of such invoice has been made. MFI agrees to comply with the terms and conditions of all Sealy and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇ brand image policies and dealer agreements. Other than the trade support provided above (which must be used for Sealy and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇ brand advertising), there will be no promo, subsidies, incentives, volume or other rebates on purchases under this Agreement.

10.: FLOOR SAMPLES

During the term of this Agreement, Sealy shall provide to MFI a [*] discount on the wholesale price less [*] returns credit, on initial floor sample orders whenever a different product is placed on the sales floor and initial floor samples purchased for new stores. Floor samples shall not be replaced more than once per year at such discount unless a product change out is reasonably necessary. All other floor samples shall be supplied at MFI's regular wholesale prices. Co-operative advertising will not be earned on floor sample discounted orders.

11.: POINT-OF-PURCHASE MATERIALS ("POP")

During the term of this Agreement, Sealy shall offer MFI [*] per Agreement Year in POP. This [*] amount will be adjusted annually to reflect any increase or decrease in the Consumer Price Index.

12.: NEW STORE SUPPORT

During the term of this Agreement, Sealy shall pay MFI [*] in new store opening support for each new mattress store (not including leased departments or franchisee stores) opened by MFI during the term of this Agreement, up to a maximum each contract year equal to [*] of MFI's Net Purchases of Sealy Products during the prior contract year (the initial year's cap shall be based on the 12 month period prior to commencement of this Agreement in MFI's continuing markets).

14.: PAYMENT TERMS

Payment terms for payments from MFI to Sealy under this Agreement shall be two percent (2%) percent 45 days, net 60 days.

Holidays under this section are Memorial Day, Fourth of July, and Labor Day.

MFI will have the right to reject Factory Defective product at the point of receipt (either direct off loading, from dropped trailers, or errors in manufacture such as wrong label upon delivery, improper manufacturing of floor samples) and Factory Recalls (e.g. Odor, Tick Yellowing) will be excluded from the Return Credit and accepted for return.

16.: DELIVERY

Sealy shall place the MFI's company owned stores on 48-hour delivery status if they are located in areas where Sealy's facilities and delivery schedules are such that 48-hour delivery can be reasonably successfully achieved, but only to the extent MFI complies with Sealy's "order by time" that is determined by Sealy plants to facilitate 48-hour delivery. Sealy and MFI shall jointly determine reasonable delivery schedules for MFI's other stores.
