In each case of a Commitment Party’s Transfer of all or any portion of its Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.6(b), (1) the Ultimate Purchaser shall have provided a written agreement to the Company under which it (x) confirms the accuracy of the representations set forth in Article V hereof as applied to such Ultimate Purchaser, (y) agrees to purchase such portion of such Commitment Party’s Commitment and (z) agrees to be fully bound by, and subject to, this Agreement as an Additional Commitment Party hereto, and (2) such Commitment Party and the Ultimate Purchaser shall have duly executed and delivered to the Company (at the address set forth in Section 10.1) written notice of such Transfer; provided, however, that no such Transfer shall relieve such Commitment Party from any of its obligations under this Agreement. Other than as set forth in this Section 2.6(b) and Section 2.6(c), a Commitment Party shall not be permitted to Transfer all or any portion of its Commitment without the prior written consent of the Company, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Upon compliance with this Section 2.6(c), a Commitment Party shall be deemed to relinquish its rights (and be released from its obligations, except for any claim for breach of this Agreement that occurs prior to such Transfer) under this Agreement to the extent of such transferred rights and obligations, and the transferee shall become an Additional Commitment Party and be fully bound as an Additional Commitment Party hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. Any Transfer made in violation of this Section 2.6(c) shall be deemed null and void ab initio and of no force or effect, regardless of any prior notice provided to the Parties or the Commitment Parties, and shall not create any obligation or liability of any Debtor to the purported transferee.

(d) Each Commitment Party, severally and not jointly, agrees that it will not Transfer, at any time prior to the Closing Date or the earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any Person other than in accordance with Section 2.6(a), Section 2.6(b) or Section 2.6(c), as applicable. After the Closing Date, nothing in this Agreement shall limit or restrict in any way the ability of a Commitment Party (or any permitted transferee thereof) to Transfer any of the Common Stock or any interest therein; provided, that any such Transfer shall be made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or an exemption from the registration requirements thereunder and pursuant to applicable securities Laws.

The Company may reasonably request such opinions, certificates or other evidence that such restrictions no longer apply as a condition to removing the Legend.

INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION

Section 8.1 Indemnification Obligations. Following the entry of the BCA Approval Order, the Company and the other Debtors (the “Indemnifying Parties” and each, an “Indemnifying Party”) shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless the Commitment Party and its Affiliates, equity holders, members, direct and indirect general and limited partners, managers and its and their respective Representatives and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and costs and expenses (other than Taxes of the Commitment Party except to the extent otherwise provided for in this Agreement) arising out of a claim asserted by a third-party (collectively, “Losses”) that any such Indemnified Person may incur or to which any such Indemnified Person may become subject arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, the Plan and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the Backstop Commitment, the Rights Offerings, the issuance of the Commitment Fee Common Stock or the use of the proceeds of the Rights Offerings, or any claim, challenge, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, regardless of whether any Indemnified Person is a party thereto, whether or not such proceedings are brought by the Company, the other Debtors, their respective equity holders, Affiliates, creditors or any other Person, and reimburse each Indemnified Person upon demand for reasonable documented (with such documentation subject to redaction to preserve attorney client and work product privileges) legal or other third-party expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending, or providing evidence in or preparing to serve or serving as a witness with respect to, any lawsuit, investigation, claim or other proceeding relating to any of the foregoing (including in connection with the enforcement of the indemnification obligations set forth herein), irrespective of whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Plan are consummated or whether or not this Agreement is terminated; provided, that the foregoing indemnity will not, as to any Indemnified Person, apply to Losses (a) as to the Commitment Party, its Related Parties or any Indemnified Person related thereto, caused by a Commitment Party Default or a material breach of the Commitment Party’s obligations under this Agreement, or (b) to the extent they are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise from the bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified Person.

Section 8.2 Indemnification Procedure. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person of notice of the commencement of any claim, challenge, litigation, investigation or proceeding (an “Indemnified Claim”), such Indemnified Person will, if a claim is to be made hereunder against the Indemnifying Party in respect thereof, notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the commencement thereof; provided, that (a) the omission to so notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have hereunder except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and (b) the omission to so notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have to such Indemnified Person otherwise than on account of this Article VIII. In case any such Indemnified Claims are brought against any Indemnified Person and it notifies the Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate therein, and, at its election by providing written notice to such Indemnified Person, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably acceptable to such Indemnified Person; provided, that if the parties (including any impleaded parties) to any such Indemnified Claims include both such Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Party and based on advice of such Indemnified Person’s counsel there are legal defenses available to such Indemnified Person that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party, such Indemnified Person shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such Indemnified Claims. Upon receipt of notice from the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Person of its election to so assume the defense of such Indemnified Claims with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Person, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Person for expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with the defense thereof or participation therein (other than reasonable costs of investigation) unless (i) such Indemnified Person shall have employed separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel) in connection with the assertion of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel representing the Indemnified Persons who are parties to such Indemnified Claims (in addition to one local counsel in each jurisdiction in which local counsel is required)), (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not have employed counsel reasonably acceptable to such Indemnified Person to represent such Indemnified Person within a reasonable time after the Indemnifying Party has received notice of commencement of the Indemnified Claims from, or delivered on behalf of, the Indemnified Person, (iii) after the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of the Indemnified Claims, the Indemnified Person determines in good faith that the Indemnifying Party has failed or is failing to defend such claim and provides written notice of such determination and the basis for such determination, and such failure is not reasonably cured within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such notice, or (iv) the Indemnifying Party shall have authorized in writing the employment of counsel for such Indemnified Person. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Debtors shall have sole control over any Tax controversy or Tax audit and shall be permitted to settle any liability for Taxes of the Debtors.

Section 8.3 Settlement of Indemnified Claims. In connection with any Indemnified Claim for which an Indemnified Person is assuming the defense in accordance with this Article VIII, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any Indemnified Claims effected by such Indemnified Person without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If any settlement of any Indemnified Claims is consummated with the written consent of the Indemnifying Party or if there is a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such Indemnified Claims, the Indemnifying Party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and all Losses by reason of such settlement or judgment to the extent such Losses are otherwise subject to indemnification by the Indemnifying Party hereunder in accordance with, and subject to the limitations of, this Article VIII. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of an Indemnified Person (which consent shall be granted or withheld, conditioned or delayed in the Indemnified Person’s sole discretion), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Indemnified Claims in respect of which indemnity or contribution has been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person unless (i) such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person in form and substance satisfactory to such Indemnified Person from all liability on the claims that are the subject matter of such Indemnified Claims and (ii) such settlement does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

Section 8.4 Contribution. If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Indemnified Person or insufficient to hold it harmless from Losses that are subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.1, then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such Loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Person, on the other hand, but also the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Person, on the other hand, as well as any relevant equitable considerations. It is hereby agreed that the relative benefits to the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and all Indemnified Persons, on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as (a) the total value received or proposed to be received by the Company pursuant to the issuance and sale of the Rights Offering Common Stock contemplated by this Agreement and the Plan bears to (b) the Commitment Fee Common Stock issued or proposed to be issued to the Commitment Party. The Indemnifying Parties also agree that no Indemnified Person shall have any liability based on their comparative or contributory negligence or otherwise to the Indemnifying Parties, any Person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of any of the Indemnifying Parties, or any other Person in connection with an Indemnified Claim.

Section 8.5 Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All amounts paid by an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Person under this Article VIII shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, be treated as adjustments to the Offering Price for all Tax purposes. The provisions of this Article VIII are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without these provisions the Commitment Party would not have entered into this Agreement. The BCA Approval Order shall provide that the obligations of the Company under this Article VIII shall constitute allowed administrative expenses of the Debtors’ estate under sections 503(b) and 507 of the Bankruptcy Code and are payable without further Order of the Bankruptcy Court, and that the Company may comply with the requirements of this Article VIII without further Order of the Bankruptcy Court.

Section 8.6 No Survival. All representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made in this Agreement shall not survive the Closing Date except for covenants and agreements that by their terms are to be satisfied after the Closing Date, which covenants and agreements shall survive until satisfied in accordance with their terms.

Section 9.4 Termination by the Commitment Party.

This Agreement may be terminated by the Commitment Party upon written notice to the Commitment Parties upon the occurrence of any of the following Events, subject to the rights of the Company to fully and conditionally waive, in writing, on a prospective or retroactive basis the occurrence of such Event, if more than 30% of the Debtors’ stores remain closed in connection with COVID-19 for two weeks, measured on a rolling basis.

Section 9.5 Effect of Termination.

(a) Upon termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Article IX, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and there shall be no further obligations or liabilities on the part of the Parties; provided, that (i) except in the case of a Commitment Party Default or a termination pursuant to Section 9.3(b), the obligations of the Debtors to pay the Expense Reimbursement pursuant to Article III and to satisfy their indemnification obligations pursuant to Article VIII and to issue the Commitment Fee Common Stock pursuant to Section 9.5(b) shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect, in each case, until such obligations have been satisfied, (ii) the provisions set forth in Article VIII, this Section 9.5 and Article X shall survive the termination of this Agreemen5 in accordance with their terms and (iii) subject to Section 10.10, nothing in this Section 9.4 shall relieve any Party from liability for its gross negligence or any willful or intentional breach of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, “willful or intentional breach” means a breach of this Agreement that is a consequence of an act undertaken by the breaching Party with the knowledge that the taking of such act would, or would reasonably be expected to, cause a breach of this Agreement.

(b) If this Agreement is terminated for any reason other than by the Company under Section 9.3(b), the Debtors shall, promptly after the date of such termination, issue the Commitment Fee Common Stock to the Commitment Parties or their respective designees, in accordance with Section 3.2. To the extent that the Commitment Fee Common Stock has actually been issued by the Company to the Commitment Parties in connection with a termination of this Agreement, the Commitment Parties shall not have any additional recourse against the Debtors for any obligations or liabilities relating to or arising from this Agreement, except for liability for gross negligence or willful or intentional breach of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.5(a). Except as set forth in this Section 9.5(b), the Commitment Fee Common Stock shall not be issuable upon the termination of this Agreement. The Commitment Fee Common Stock shall, pursuant to the BCA Approval Order, constitute allowed administrative expenses of the Debtors’ estate under sections 503(b) and 507 of the Bankruptcy Code.

Rights Offering Procedures

Rights Offering Procedures

TUESDAY MORNING CORPORATION (THE “COMPANY”)

RIGHTS OFFERING PROCEDURES¹

Each Rights Offering Share (as defined below) is being issued by the Debtors without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance upon (1) the exemption provided in Section 1145(a) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Rights Offering Shares being offered in the Eligible Offeree Rights Offering (as defined below),² and (2) the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act with respect to the Rights Offering Shares being offered in the Section 4(a)(2) Rights Offering (as defined below). None of the Share Purchase Rights or the Rights Offering Shares issuable upon exercise of such rights distributed pursuant to these Rights Offering Procedures have been or will be registered under the Securities Act, nor any state or local law requiring registration for offer and sale of a security.

The Share Purchase Rights are not transferable, except as permitted by the Backstop Agreement (with respect to the Backstop Party) or as agreed to by the Company and the Backstop Party.

The Disclosure Statement (as defined below) has previously been distributed in connection with the Debtors’ solicitation of votes to accept or reject the Plan (as defined below) and that document sets forth important information, including risk factors, that should be carefully read and considered by each Eligible Offeree (as defined below) prior to making a decision to participate in the Rights Offerings.  Additional copies of the Disclosure Statement are available upon request from the Subscription Agent.

The Rights Offerings are being conducted by the Company on behalf of Reorganized Tuesday Morning Corporation in good faith and in compliance with the Bankruptcy Code. In accordance with Section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, a debtor or any of its agents that participate, in good faith and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, in the offer, issuance, sale, or purchase of a security offered or sold under the plan of the debtor, of an affiliate participating in a joint plan with the debtor, or of a newly organized successor to the debtor under the plan, is not liable, on account of such participation, for violation of any applicable law, rule, or regulation governing the offer, issuance, sale or purchase of securities.

¹Terms used and not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Second Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization of Tuesday Morning Corporation, et. al., Pursuant to Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (as may be amended, modified, or supplemented from time to time, the “Plan”).

² If the Aggregate Market Value (as defined in the Plan) of the Tuesday Morning Common Stock is less than $32 million as of the Effective Date, Tuesday Morning Corporation shall file a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Eligible Offeree Rights Offering.

Eligible Offerees should note the following times relating to the Rights Offerings:

³ Shall be the 30^th day after the Effective Date of the Plan, unless the Aggregate Market Value (as defined in the Plan) of the Tuesday Morning Common Stock is less than $32 million as of the Effective Date, in which case the Subscription Expiration Deadline shall be the 30^th day after a registration statement has become effective under the Securities Act with respect to the Eligible Offeree Rights Offering.

To Eligible Offerees and Nominees of Eligible Offerees:

On November 15, 2020, the Debtors filed the Plan with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division, and the Disclosure Statement in Support of the Second Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization of Tuesday Morning Corporation, et. al., Pursuant to Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (as may be amended from time to time in accordance with its terms, the “Disclosure Statement”). Pursuant to the Plan, each holder of an outstanding share of the Existing Common Stock as of the Rights Offering Record Date (each such holder, an “Eligible Offeree”) has a right to participate in the Eligible Offeree Rights Offering (as defined below), and the Backstop Party shall participate in the Section 4(a)(2) Rights Offering (as defined below), in each case, in accordance with the terms and conditions of these Rights Offering Procedures. The Eligible Offeree Rights Offering and the Section 4(a)(2) Rights Offering are collectively referred to herein as the “Rights Offerings”.

Pursuant to the Plan, in exchange for each outstanding share of the Existing Common Stock held by an Eligible Offeree as of the Rights Offering Record Date, the Eligible Offeree will receive (1) one share of the New Common Stock and (2) rights to subscribe for its pro rata portion of a rights offering of the New Common Stock in an aggregate amount of $24,000,000 (the “Eligible Offeree Rights Offering,” and such shares, the “Eligible Offeree Rights Offering Shares”), provided that it timely and properly executes and delivers its applicable Beneficial Owner Offering Form(s) (with accompanying IRS Form W-9 or appropriate IRS Form W-8, as applicable) to the Subscription Agent (in the case of Eligible Offerees that directly own the Existing Common Stock) or its Nominee (in the case of Eligible Offerees that hold their Existing Common Stock through a Nominee), as applicable, in advance of the Subscription Expiration Deadline. The pro rata portion of the $24,000,000 amount available to Eligible Offerees in the Eligible Offeree Rights Offering shall be calculated by dividing the number of shares of the Existing Common Stock held by an Eligible Offeree on the Rights Offering Record Date by the total number of shares of the Existing Common Stock outstanding on the Rights Offering Record Date. Each Nominee will receive a Master Subscription Form which it shall use to summarize the Share Purchase Rights exercised by each Eligible Offeree that timely returns the applicable properly filled out Beneficial Owner Offering Form(s) to such Nominee. Beneficial Owner Offering Forms should only be returned directly to the Subscription Agent if the Eligible Offeree is the direct holder of record on the books of the stock transfer registration books of Tuesday Morning Corporation and does not hold its Existing Common Stock through a Nominee.

Pursuant to the Plan, the Backstop Party will receive rights to subscribe for shares of the New Common Stock in an aggregate amount of $16,000,000 (the “Section 4(a)(2) Rights Offering,” and such shares, the “Base Section 4(a)(2) Rights Offering Shares”). Pursuant to the Backstop Agreement, the Backstop Party has agreed to purchase all of the Base Section 4(a)(2) Rights Offering Shares. To the extent that Eligible Offerees do not exercise all of the Share Purchase Rights on or prior to the expiration of the Eligible Offeree Rights Offering, the Backstop Party has agreed, pursuant to the Backstop Commitment, to purchase all of the shares of the Rights Offering Shares underlying the unpurchased shares (the “Backstop Shares”) and, together with the Base Section 4(a)(2) Rights Offering Shares, the “Section 4(a)(2) Rights Offering Shares”). The Eligible Offeree Rights Offering Shares and the Section 4(a)(2) Rights Offering Shares are referred to together as the “Rights Offering Shares”.

Please note that for Eligible Offerees that hold their Existing Common Stock through a Nominee, all Beneficial Owner Offering Forms (with accompanying IRS Form W-9 or appropriate IRS Form W-8, as applicable) must be returned to the applicable Nominee in sufficient time to allow such Nominee to process and deliver the Master Subscription Form and copies of all Beneficial Owner Offering Forms, and the accompanying IRS Forms prior to the Subscription Expiration Deadline. To the extent of any discrepancy between the Master Subscription Form and the Beneficial Owner Offering Form(s) regarding the Eligible Offeree’s holdings of the Existing Common Stock, the Master Subscription Form shall govern. While the amount of time necessary for a Nominee to process and deliver the Master Subscription Form to the Subscription Agent will vary from Nominee to Nominee, Eligible Offerees are urged to consult with their Nominees to determine the necessary deadline to return their Beneficial Owner Offering Forms. An Eligible Offeree that is the direct holder of record on the books of the stock transfer registration books of Tuesday Morning Corporation and does not hold its Existing Common Stock through a Nominee should deliver its Beneficial Owner Offering Form directly to the Subscription Agent. Failure to submit such Beneficial Owner Offering Forms on a timely basis will result in forfeiture of an Eligible Offeree’s rights to participate in the Eligible Offeree Rights Offering. None of the Company, the Subscription Agent or the Backstop Party will have any liability for any such failure.

No Eligible Offeree shall be entitled to participate in the Eligible Offeree Rights Offering unless the aggregate Purchase Price (as defined below) for the Rights Offering Shares it subscribes for is received by the Subscription Agent (i) in the case of an Eligible Offeree that is not the Backstop Party, by the Subscription Expiration Deadline, and (ii) in the case of the Backstop Party, no later than the deadline specified in a written notice (a “Funding Notice”) delivered by or on behalf of the Debtors to the Backstop Party in accordance with the Backstop Agreement (the “Backstop Funding Deadline”), provided that the Backstop Party may deposit its aggregate Purchase Price in the Escrow Account (as defined below), in accordance with the terms of the Backstop Agreement. No interest is payable on any advanced funding of the Purchase Price. If the Rights Offerings are terminated for any reason, the aggregate Purchase Price previously received by the Subscription Agent will be returned to Eligible Offerees and the Backstop Party, as applicable, as provided in Section 6 hereof. No interest will be paid on any returned Purchase Price. Any Eligible Offeree submitting payment via its Nominee must coordinate such payment with its Nominee in sufficient time to allow the Nominee to forward such payment to the Subscription Agent by the Subscription Expiration Deadline.

In order to participate in the Eligible Offeree Rights Offering, an Eligible Offeree must complete all of the steps outlined below. If all of the steps outlined below are not completed by the Subscription Expiration Deadline or the Backstop Funding Deadline, as applicable, an Eligible Offeree shall be deemed to have forever and irrevocably relinquished and waived its right to participate in the Eligible Offeree Rights Offering.

1. Rights Offerings

Eligible Offerees have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in the Eligible Offeree Rights Offering.

Eligible Offerees shall receive rights to subscribe for their pro rata portion of the Eligible Offeree Rights Offering Shares.

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and these Rights Offering Procedures, each Eligible Offeree is entitled to subscribe for its pro rata portion of Eligible Offeree Rights Offering Shares (calculated as described above) at a purchase price of $1.10 per share (the “Purchase Price”). Pursuant to the Backstop Agreement, the Backstop Party has agreed to purchase the Section 4(a)(2) Rights Offering Shares at the Purchase Price.

There will be no over-subscription privilege in the Rights Offerings. Any Eligible Offeree Rights Offering Shares that are unsubscribed by the Eligible Offerees entitled thereto will not be offered to other Eligible Offerees but will be purchased by the Backstop Party in accordance with the Backstop Agreement.

Any Eligible Offeree that subscribes for Eligible Offeree Rights Offering Shares and is deemed to be an “underwriter” under Section 1145(b) of the Bankruptcy Code will be subject to restrictions under the Securities Act on its ability to resell those securities. Resale restrictions are discussed in more detail in Article XVI of the Disclosure Statement, entitled “Securities Law Considerations.”

The securities to be issued to the Backstop Party pursuant to the Backstop Agreement shall be exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act. As a result, such securities will be “restricted securities”. Pursuant to the Backstop Agreement, Tuesday Morning Corporation agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering the resale of the securities acquired by the Backstop Party pursuant to the Backstop Agreement.

SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE RIGHTS OFFERING PROCEDURES AND THE BACKSTOP AGREEMENT IN THE CASE OF THE BACKSTOP PARTY, ALL SUBSCRIPTIONS SET FORTH IN THE APPLICABLE BENEFICIAL OWNER OFFERING FORM(S) ARE IRREVOCABLE.

2. Subscription Period

The Rights Offerings will commence on the Subscription Commencement Date and will expire at the Subscription Expiration Deadline. Each Eligible Offeree intending to purchase Eligible Offeree Rights Offering Shares in the Eligible Offeree Rights Offering must affirmatively elect to exercise its Share Purchase Rights in the manner set forth in the applicable Subscription Form by the Subscription Expiration Deadline.

Any exercise of Share Purchase Rights by an Eligible Offeree after the Subscription Expiration Deadline will not be allowed and any purported exercise received by the Subscription Agent after the Subscription Expiration Deadline, regardless of when the documents or payment relating to such exercise were sent, will not be honored, except that the Company shall have the discretion, with the consent of the Backstop Party, to allow any exercise of Share Purchase Rights in the Eligible Offeree Rights Offering after the Subscription Expiration Deadline.

The Subscription Expiration Deadline may be extended by the Company with the consent of the Backstop Party, or as required by law.

3. Delivery of Subscription Documents

Each Eligible Offeree may exercise all or any portion of such Eligible Offeree’s Share Purchase Rights, but subject to the terms and conditions contained herein. In order to facilitate the exercise of the Share Purchase Rights, beginning on the Subscription Commencement Date, the applicable Subscription Form and these Rights Offering Procedures will be sent to each Eligible Offeree, together with appropriate instructions for the proper completion, due execution and timely delivery of the executed Subscription Form and the payment of the applicable aggregate Purchase Price for its Rights Offering Shares.

4. Exercise of Share Purchase Rights

THE BACKSTOP PARTY MUST PAY ITS PURCHASE PRICE DIRECTLY TO THE SUBSCRIPTION AGENT OR TO THE ESCROW ACCOUNT, AS APPLICABLE, AND SHOULD NOT PAY ITS NOMINEE(S).

⁴ The Company and the Backstop Party to select an escrow agent prior to the launch of the Rights Offerings.

5. Transfer Restriction; Revocation

The Share Purchase Rights are not transferable, except as permitted by the Backstop Agreement (with respect to the Backstop Party) or as agreed to by the Company and the Backstop Party. If any Share Purchase Rights are transferred by an Eligible Offeree in contravention of the foregoing, the Share Purchase Rights will be cancelled, and neither such Eligible Offeree nor the purported transferee will receive any Rights Offering Shares otherwise purchasable on account of such transferred Share Purchase Rights. Any Existing Common Stock traded after the Rights Offering Record Date will not be traded with the Share Purchase Rights attached.

Once an Eligible Offeree has properly exercised its Share Purchase Rights, subject to the terms and conditions contained in these Rights Offering Procedures and the Backstop Agreement in the case of the Backstop Party, such exercise will be irrevocable.

6. Termination/Return of Payment

Unless the Closing Date has occurred, the Rights Offerings will be deemed automatically terminated without any action of any party upon the termination of the Backstop Agreement in accordance with its terms. In the event the Rights Offerings are terminated, any payments received pursuant to these Rights Offering Procedures will be returned, without interest, to the applicable Eligible Offeree and the Backstop Party, as applicable, as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event, within six (6) Business Days after the date of termination.

7. Settlement of the Rights Offerings and Distribution of the Rights Offering Shares

The settlement of the Rights Offerings is conditioned on compliance by the Debtors with these Rights Offering Procedures. The Debtors intend that the Rights Offering Shares will be issued to the Eligible Offerees and/or to any party that an Eligible Offeree so designates in the Beneficial Owner Offering Form(s), in book-entry form, and that DTC, or its nominee, will be the holder of record of such Rights Offering Shares. To the extent DTC is unwilling or unable to make the Rights Offering Shares eligible on the DTC system, the Rights Offering Shares will be issued directly to the Eligible Offeree or its designee.

8. Fractional Shares

No fractional rights or Rights Offering Shares will be issued in the Rights Offerings. All share allocations (including each Eligible Offeree’s Rights Offering Shares) will be calculated and rounded down to the nearest whole share.

9. Validity of Exercise of Share Purchase Rights

All questions concerning the timeliness, viability, form and eligibility of any exercise of Share Purchase Rights will be determined in good faith by the Debtors in consultation with the Backstop Party, and, if necessary, subject to a final and binding determination by the Bankruptcy Court. The Debtor, with the consent of the Backstop Party, may waive or reject any defect or irregularity in, or permit such defect or irregularity to be corrected within such time as they may determine in good faith, the purported exercise of any Share Purchase Rights. Subscription Forms will be deemed not to have been received or accepted until all irregularities have been waived or cured within such time as the Debtors determine in good faith in consultation with the Backstop Party.

Before exercising any Share Purchase Rights, Eligible Offerees should read the Disclosure Statement and the Plan for information relating to the Debtors and the risk factors to be considered.

All calculations, including, to the extent applicable, the calculation of any Eligible Offerees Rights Offering Shares, shall be made in good faith by the Company with the consent of the Backstop Party, and any disputes regarding such calculations shall be subject to a final and binding determination by the Bankruptcy Court.

10. Modification of Procedures

With the prior written consent of the Backstop Party, the Debtors reserve the right to modify these Rights Offering Procedures, or adopt additional procedures consistent with these Rights Offering Procedures to effectuate the Rights Offerings and to issue the Rights Offering Shares, provided, however, that the Debtors shall provide prompt written notice to each Eligible Offeree of any material modification to these Rights Offering Procedures made after the Subscription Commencement Date, provided further that any amendments or modifications to the terms of the Rights Offerings are subject to the provisions of the Backstop Agreement. In so doing, and subject to the consent of the Backstop Party, the Debtors may execute and enter into agreements and take further action that the Debtors determine in good faith is necessary and appropriate to effectuate and implement the Rights Offerings and the issuance of the Rights Offering Shares.

The Debtors shall undertake reasonable procedures to confirm that each participant in the Rights Offerings is in fact an Eligible Offeree.

11. Inquiries and Transmittal of Documents; Subscription Agent

The Rights Offering Instructions for Eligible Offerees attached hereto should be carefully read and strictly followed by the Eligible Offerees.

Questions relating to the Rights Offerings should be directed to the Subscription Agent via email to TuesdayMorningInfo@epiqglobal.com (please reference “Tuesday Morning Rights Offering” in the subject line) or at the following phone number: (855) 917-3492 (Toll Free U.S.) or (503) 520-4423 (Non U.S.).

The risk of non-delivery of all documents and payments to the Subscription Agent, the Escrow Account and any Nominee is on the Eligible Offeree electing to exercise its Share Purchase Rights and not the Debtors, the Subscription Agent, or the Backstop Party.

You have advised Tensile Capital Partners Master Fund LP (“TCM”, “us” or “we”) that Tuesday Morning Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Parent” or “you”), seeks financing to make payments on the general unsecured claims of Parent, Tuesday Morning, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“TMI”) and certain subsidiaries of Parent and TMI, as well as make payments for claims, fees and expenses relating to its exit from bankruptcy (the “Transactions”), all as more fully described in the Senior Subordinated Notes Term Sheet attached hereto as Annex A (the “Term Sheet”).

You have requested that TCM and select co-investors of TCM (collectively, the “Investors” or “we”) commit to purchase senior subordinated notes from Parent in an aggregate amount of $25,000,000 (the “Facility”). The Investors are pleased to advise you of their respective several commitments to purchase senior subordinated notes upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth or referred to in this commitment letter (this “Commitment Letter”) and in the Term Sheet. The commitment of each Investor is set forth opposite such Investor’s name on Annex B attached hereto.

The Investor’s respective commitments hereunder are subject to:

The terms and conditions of the Investors’ commitment hereunder are limited to those set forth herein and in the Term Sheet. Those matters that are not covered by the provisions hereof and of the Term Sheet are subject to the approval and agreement of TCM, the Investors and the Parent.

This Commitment Letter is delivered to you on the understanding that neither this Commitment Letter or the Term Sheet nor any of their terms or substance shall be disclosed, directly or indirectly, to any other person except (a) to your officers, agents and advisors (other than commercial lenders) who are directly involved in the consideration of this matter and for whom you shall be responsible for any breach by any one of them of this confidentiality undertaking, (b) as may be compelled in a judicial or administrative proceeding or as otherwise required by law (in which case you agree to inform us promptly thereof), (c) pursuant to your or your subsidiaries’ bankruptcy cases, and (d) to the office of the U.S. Trustee, the bankruptcy court (subject to the preceding clause (c)), and on a confidential and “professional eyes only” basis to advisors to any statutory committee appointed in your or your subsidiaries’ bankruptcy cases, provided that, the foregoing restrictions shall cease to apply after this Commitment Letter has been accepted by you. Officers, directors, employees and agents of the Investors and their respective affiliates shall at all times have the right to share amongst themselves information received from you and your affiliates and your officers, directors, employees and agents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is agreed and understood that you and your subsidiaries shall be permitted to disclose this Commitment Letter and the contents thereof to the bankruptcy court to the extent disclosure thereof is necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated herein.

You agree (a) to indemnify and hold harmless the Investors and their respective affiliates and their respective officers, directors, managers, employees, advisors, direct and indirect partners and agents (each, an “indemnified person”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses to which any such indemnified person may become subject arising out of or in connection with this Commitment Letter, the use of the proceeds thereof, or any related transaction or any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation, arbitration or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing (including in relation to enforcing the terms of this paragraph) (each, a “Proceeding”), regardless of whether any indemnified person is a party thereto or whether such Proceedings are brought by you, your equity holders, affiliates, creditors or any other person, and to reimburse each indemnified person upon demand for any legal or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending any of the foregoing, provided that the foregoing indemnity will not, as to any indemnified person, apply to losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses to the extent they are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise or result from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such indemnified person and (b) to reimburse the Investors and their affiliates on demand for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable and documented due diligence expenses, consultant's fees and expenses (if any), travel expenses, and reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of outside counsel) incurred in connection with the Facility and any related documentation or the administration, amendment, modification or waiver thereof. You also agree that no indemnified person shall have any liability to you for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages. You shall not, without the prior written consent of an indemnified person (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceedings in respect of which indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified person unless (i) such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified person in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceedings and (ii) does not include any statement as to, or any admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified person or any injunctive relief or other non-monetary remedy.

If the Facility is not consummated and you or any of your subsidiaries consummate any credit facilities or other issuance(s) of debt, subordinated debt or preferred equity securities (specifically excluding the Facility and the Exit First Lien Credit Facility referred to in the Term Sheet, in an amount up to the maximum principal amount of such Exit First Lien Credit Facility set forth in the Term Sheet, but specifically including any amendment, amendment and restatement, renewals or refinancings of any existing credit facilities, or any increase of the amount of the Exit First Lien Credit Facility beyond the amounts permitted by the Term Sheet, collectively, an “Alternate Financing”) within one year after the date hereof, you agree that, unless TCM failed to negotiate in good faith the definitive documentation with respect to the Facility, then TCM shall be deemed to have earned, and you will pay (or cause to be paid) immediately to TCM an amount equal to $500,000.

This Commitment Letter shall not be assignable by you without the prior written consent of the Investors (and any purported assignment without such consent shall be null and void), is intended to be solely for the benefit of the parties hereto and is not intended to confer any benefits upon, or create any rights in favor of, any person other than the parties hereto. This Commitment Letter may not be amended or waived except by an instrument in writing signed by each of the parties hereto. This Commitment Letter may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one agreement. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Commitment Letter by facsimile or other electronic transmission (e.g., “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. This Commitment Letter and the Term Sheet set forth the entire understanding of the parties with respect thereto. This Commitment Letter shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. The Parent consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state or federal courts located in the City of New York. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, (A) ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY OR ON BEHALF OF ANY PARTY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS COMMITMENT LETTER, THE TERM SHEET OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY) AND (B) ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUCH LEGAL PROCEEDING IN THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK.

The indemnification, reimbursement and confidentiality provisions contained herein and in the Term Sheet shall remain in full force and effect regardless of whether definitive documentation relating to the Facility shall be executed and delivered and notwithstanding the termination of this Commitment Letter or the Investors’ respective commitments hereunder; provided that your obligations under this Commitment Letter shall automatically terminate and be superseded by the provisions of the definitive documentation relating to the Facility upon the effectiveness thereof, and thereafter such provisions in this Commitment Letter shall have no further force and effect.

Section headings used herein are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Commitment Letter.

You hereby authorize the Investors, at their own expense, but without any prior approval by you, to publish such tombstones and give such other publicity to the Facility as it may from time to time determine in their respective discretion.

If the foregoing correctly sets forth our agreement, please indicate your acceptance of the terms hereof and of the Term Sheet by returning to us executed counterparts hereof not later than 5:00 p.m., Central time, on November 13, 2020. The Investors’ respective commitments and agreements herein will expire at such time in the event TCM has not received such executed counterparts in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. This Commitment Letter and the Term Sheet supersede any and all prior versions hereof and thereof and any other prior agreement or understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.

The Investors’ respective commitments hereunder (a) may be terminated at any time by the Parent, with or without cause, effective upon receipt TCM of notice to that effect from the Parent, and (b) will otherwise terminate on December 31, 2020 (unless extended by the Investor), in each case, unless the closing of the Facility on the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein and in the applicable definitive documentation relating to the Facility has been consummated on or before such date. Notwithstanding any such termination of this Term Sheet, Parent shall continue to be obligated to reimburse Investors’ fees to the extent required under Section 4 above.

The Investors are pleased to have been given the opportunity to assist you in connection with this important financing.
