- 28 -

23. REMEDIES.

Each of the Parties hereby waives any defense that a remedy at law is adequate and any requirement to post bond or other security in connection with actions instituted for injunctive relief, specific performance, or other equitable remedies.

24. NO COMMITMENT. Neither any Consenting Creditor nor the Sponsor shall be obligated to fund or otherwise be committed to provide funding in connection with the Restructuring, except pursuant to a separate commitment letter or definitive documentation relating specifically to such funding, if any, that has been (i) executed by such Consenting Creditor or the Sponsor and (ii) approved by the Bankruptcy Court, as necessary, along with the satisfaction of any conditions precedent to such funding requirements.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Chapter 11 Cases are commenced, nothing in Section 25(a)–(b) shall limit the authority of the Bankruptcy Court to hear any matter related to or arising out of this Agreement, and each Party irrevocably and unconditionally consents to the jurisdiction and venue of the Bankruptcy Court to hear and determine such matters during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases.

26. NOTICES.

Financing

DIP Financing		Prior to the Petition Date, the Debtors shall have entered into a debt financing commitment letter with Citibank Global Markets Inc. providing for debtor-in-possession financing on the terms attached hereto as Exhibit 1 (the “DIP Term Sheet”).

Permitted Refinancing Stipulation		The Consenting Creditors hereby stipulate that entry into the agreement governing the DIP Facilities (as defined in the DIP Term Sheet) (the “DIP Credit Agreement”) constitutes a “Permitted Refinancing” as such term is defined by the ABL Intercreditor Agreement.

Adequate Protection		During the Chapter 11 Cases, the Company shall provide adequate protection with respect to First Lien Claims consisting of: (i) the adequate protection provided by clauses (c), (d), and (e) of the “Adequate Protection” provision of the DIP Term Sheet; (ii) customary lien stipulations, and (iii) timely payment of the reasonable and documented fees and expenses (but not success fees, transaction fees, or similar fees), including reasonable and documented professional fees and expenses, incurred by (A) the Ad Hoc First Lien Group, and (B) the agents under the Existing ABL Revolver, the Existing RCF, and the Claire’s Term Loan, and the trustees under the Claire’s 2019 1L Notes Indenture and the Claire’s 2020 1L Notes Indenture; provided that the payment of all such fees and expenses shall be subject to the Debtors’ or any party in interest’s rights to seek a determination that such payments should be recharacterized as repayment on account of the secured portion of First Lien Claims as of the Petition Date.

		Upon the termination of the RSA by the Requisite Consenting Creditors (as defined in the RSA) in accordance with its terms, the Requisite Consenting Creditors shall have the right to file a motion with the Bankruptcy Court requesting additional adequate protection on account of First Lien Claims with respect to their interest in the Notes Priority Collateral (as defined in the ABL Intercreditor Agreement), including in the form of cash-pay interest at the default rate on account of First Lien Claims; provided that the Debtors’ or any party in interest’s rights to contest any such request on any basis whatsoever are fully reserved.

		For the avoidance of doubt, in no instance shall the Debtors be required to provide adequate protection on account of First Lien Claims in the form of cash-pay interest unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court after the occurrence of an RSA Milestone Event.

CLSIP Loan Amendment/Refinancing		Not later than seven (7) days following the Petition Date, the Company shall enter into a forbearance with respect to the CLSIP Loan Credit Agreement, with the holders of the CLSIP Loan other than insiders of the Company (as insider is defined in the Bankruptcy Code) (the “CLSIP Creditors”) on terms consistent with this Term Sheet and otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Requisite Consenting Creditors (the “CLSIP Forbearance Agreement”), to provide, among other things, that any “going concern” default arising with respect to the CLSIP Loan, and any other defaults arising on account of the transactions and agreements contemplated hereby, shall be waived during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases.


		CLSIP Creditors consenting to the CLSIP Forbearance Agreement and the Sponsor, solely with respect to the Sponsor’s CLSIP Loan claims, will receive a one-time forbearance fee paid in kind (i.e. additional CLSIP loan principal amount owed) of 2.75% of their holdings under the CLSIP Loan. Such forbearance fee paid in kind shall accrue interest at the default rate from the closing date of the CLSIP Forbearance Agreement and be paid interest as set forth below.

Chapter 11 Plan Implementation

New Money Investment		On or prior to seven (7) days after the “first day” hearing, the Company, the Initial Consenting Creditors and the Sponsor shall execute the backstop commitment agreement on terms consistent with this Term Sheet and otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Requisite Consenting Creditors (the “New Money Backstop Commitment Agreement”) pursuant to which the Initial Consenting Creditors and the Sponsor will backstop an investment in the Company, in the allocations set forth on Schedule I to the RSA, up to $575 million (the “New Money Investment”) comprised of (i) a $75 million new exit ABL revolver (the “New ABL Revolver”), (ii) $250 million of a new first lien exit term loan (the “New First Lien Term Loan”) and (iii) up to $250 million of preferred stock or equity interests of reorganized Claire’s (the “Preferred Equity Interests”). The Backstop Agreement shall further provide for the payment, on the Effective Date, of First Lien Fees and Expenses (as defined in the RSA) that are accrued but unpaid as of the Effective Date.

		As part of the solicitation of acceptances for the Plan, the Company shall commence a rights offering through which holders of First Lien Claims that are qualified institutional buyers and/or accredited investors (each, an “Eligible Holder”) will receive rights to participate, on a pro rata basis, in the New Money Investment less the Holdback Amount (defined below) (the “Rights Offering”). The Backstop Parties (defined below) will purchase any and all of the New Money Investment not subscribed in the Rights Offering. The amount of the New Money Investment each participant purchases through the Rights Offering and the Plan will be allocated as follows (as may be adjusted to account for the adjusted Preferred Investment Amount): (i) 13.0434782% to commitments under the New ABL Revolver; (ii) 43.4782609% to the purchase of notes issued under the New First Lien Term Loan; and (iii) 43.4782609% to the investment of the Preferred Investment Amount (defined below).

		Each holder of First Lien Claims that executes a joinder to the RSA on or prior to ten (10) business days after the Petition Date, and subsequently subscribes for their pro rata share of the Rights Offering (collectively, excluding the Backstop Parties, the “Supporting Parties”). Each Supporting Party shall receive its pro rata allocation of the following, where pro rata allocation is calculated by dividing the amount of such Supporting Party’s First Lien Claims by the total amount of First Lien Claims:


		(a) a premium equal to 3.5% of the maximum Preferred Investment Amount (defined below), or $8.75 million, (the “Preferred Commitment Premium”), which Preferred Commitment Premium shall be paid in additional Preferred Equity Interests issued to the Supporting Parties on the Effective Date; and
