(z) Domino’s maintains a system of internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the 1934 Act) that complies with the requirements of the 1934 Act and that has been designed by, or under the supervision of, Domino’s principal executive and principal financial officers, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Domino’s maintains internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurances regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP, including, but not limited to, internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) records are maintained in reasonable detail that accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of Domino’s and each of its consolidated or reporting subsidiaries, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP and that receipts and expenditures of Domino’s and each of its consolidated or reporting subsidiaries are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of Domino’s or such subsidiary and (iii) the unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the assets of Domino’s and such subsidiaries that could have a material effect on the financial statements is prevented or timely detected.

Domino’s or any of its subsidiaries to record, process, summarize and report financial data, or any material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, or (B) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the internal control over financial reporting of any of Domino’s or any of its subsidiaries or that is otherwise material to Domino’s or any of its subsidiaries; and (ii) there have been no significant changes in internal control over financial reporting or in other factors that could significantly affect internal control over financial reporting, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.

(a) Each of the Domino’s Parties shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, its affiliates, directors, officers, employees and each person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act (each, an “Initial Purchaser Indemnified Party”), against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses whatsoever as incurred (including but not limited to reasonable third party out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses whatsoever incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, and any and all amounts paid in settlement of any claim or litigation), joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained (A) in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Final Offering Memorandum, (B) in any Blue Sky application or other document prepared or executed by any of the Domino’s Parties (or based upon any written information furnished by any of the Domino’s Parties) specifically for the purpose of qualifying any or all of the Offered Notes under the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction (any such application, document or information being hereinafter called a “Blue Sky Application”) or (C) in any materials or information provided to investors by, or with the approval of any of the Domino’s Parties in connection with the marketing of the offering of the Offered Notes, including any road show or investor presentations made to investors by any of
37
the Domino’s Parties (whether in person or electronically) and the documents and information listed on Schedule III hereto (all of the foregoing materials described in this clause (C), the “Marketing Materials”), (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Final Offering Memorandum or in any Blue Sky Application or in any Marketing Materials any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (iii) any act or failure to act or any alleged act or failure to act by any Initial Purchaser in connection with, or relating in any manner to, the Offered Notes or the offering contemplated hereby, and that is included as part of or referred to in any loss, claim, damage, liability or action or expense arising out of or based upon matters covered by clause (i) or (ii) above, or (iv) the violation of any securities laws (including without limitation the anti-fraud provision thereof) of any foreign jurisdiction in which the Offered Notes are offered; provided, however, that the Domino’s Parties will not be liable in any such case to the extent but only to the extent that it is determined in a final and unappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that any such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense arises directly and primarily out of or is based directly and primarily upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with the Initial Purchaser Information.
Each of the Domino’s Parties hereby agrees, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser Indemnified Party, against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses whatsoever as incurred (including but not limited to reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses whatsoever incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, and any and all amounts paid in settlement of any claim or litigation), joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, any website maintained in compliance with Rule 17g-5 under the 1934 Act by or on behalf of any Domino’s Party in connection with the marketing of the offering of the Offered Notes.
Except as otherwise provided in Section 8(c), each of the Domino’s Parties agrees that it shall, jointly and severally, reimburse each Indemnified Party promptly upon demand for any reasonable out-of-pocket legal or other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by that Initial Purchaser Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses for which indemnity is being provided pursuant to this Section 8(a) as such expenses are incurred.
The foregoing indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Domino’s Parties may otherwise have, including but not limited to other liability under this Agreement.
(b) Each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless each Domino’s Party, each of the officers, directors and employees of each Domino’s Party, and each other person, if any, who controls such Domino’s Party within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act (each a “Domino’s Indemnified Party”), against any losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses whatsoever as incurred
38
(including but not limited to attorneys’ fees and any and all expenses whatsoever incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, and any and all amounts paid in settlement of any claim or litigation), joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained (A) in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Final Offering Memorandum, (B) in any Blue Sky Application or (C) in any Marketing Materials, or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Final Offering Memorandum, in any Blue Sky Application or in any Marketing Materials any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Initial Purchaser Information; provided, however, that in no case shall any Initial Purchaser be liable or responsible for any other Initial Purchaser’s Initial Purchaser Information or for any amount in excess of the aggregate discount applicable to the Offered Notes to be purchased by such Initial Purchaser under this Agreement.
The foregoing indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Initial Purchasers may otherwise have, including but not limited to other liability under this Agreement.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above of notice of any claims or the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify each party against whom indemnification is to be sought in writing of the claim or the commencement thereof (but the failure so to notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which it may have under this Section 8 to the extent that it is not materially prejudiced due to the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses as a result thereof or otherwise has notice of any such action, and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability that such indemnifying party may have otherwise than on account of the indemnity agreement hereunder). In case any such claim or action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies an indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate, at its own expense, in the defense of such action, and to the extent it may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, that counsel to the indemnifying party shall not (except with the written consent of the indemnified party) also be counsel to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to employ its or their own counsel in any such case, but the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party or parties unless (i) the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by one of the indemnifying parties in connection with the defense of such action, (ii) the indemnifying parties shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party to have charge of the defense of such action within a reasonable time
39
after notice of commencement of the action, (iii) such indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably concluded, based on advice of counsel, that there may be legal defenses available to it or them which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying parties, or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both sets of parties by the same counsel would present a conflict due to actual or potential differing interests between them, in any of which events (i) through (iv) such fees and expenses shall be borne by the indemnifying parties (and the indemnifying parties shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party or parties). No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, effect any settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened claim, investigation, action or proceeding in respect of which indemnity or contribution may be or could have been sought by an indemnified party under this Section 8 (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, investigation, action or proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or any failure to act, by or on behalf of the indemnified party. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of judgment with respect to, any such action or claim effected without its consent.
(d) In order to provide for contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification described in Section 8(a) through (c) is for any reason held to be unavailable (except for reasons set forth in the proviso to clause (a) or the last sentence of clause (c)) from any indemnifying party or is insufficient to hold harmless a party indemnified thereunder, the Domino’s Parties and the Initial Purchasers shall contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses of the nature contemplated by such indemnification provision (including any investigation, legal and other expenses incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claims asserted), but after deducting in the case of losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses suffered by the Domino’s Parties, any contribution received by the Domino’s Parties from persons, other than the Initial Purchasers, who may also be liable for contribution, including their directors, officers, employees and persons who control the Domino’s Parties within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act as incurred to which the Domino’s Parties and one or more of the Initial Purchasers may be subject, in such proportions as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Domino’s Parties and the Initial Purchasers from the offering and sale of the Offered Notes under this Agreement or, if such allocation is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportions as are appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to above but also the relative fault of the Domino’s Parties and the Initial Purchasers in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Domino’s Parties and the Initial Purchasers shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds from the offering and sale of the Offered Notes under this Agreement (net of discounts and commissions but before deducting expenses) received by the Domino’s Parties or their affiliates under this Agreement, on the one hand, and the discounts or commissions received by the Initial Purchasers under this Agreement, on the other hand, bear to the aggregate offering price to investors of the Offered Notes purchased under this Agreement,
40
as set forth on the cover of the Final Offering Memorandum. The relative fault of each of the Domino’s Parties (on the one hand) and of the Initial Purchasers (on the other hand) shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Domino’s Parties or their affiliates or the Initial Purchasers and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Domino’s Parties and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8(d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 8(d). The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 8(d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any judicial, regulatory or other legal or governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(d), (i) no Initial Purchaser shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount that it has committed to purchase under this Agreement exceeds the amount of any damages which such Initial Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission, and (ii) no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 8(d), (A) each of the Initial Purchaser Indemnified Parties other than the Initial Purchasers shall have the same rights to contribution as the Initial Purchasers, and (B) each director, officer or employee of the Domino’s Parties and each person, if any, who controls the Domino’s Parties within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Domino’s Parties, subject in each case of (A) and (B) to clauses (i) and (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence. Any party entitled to contribution will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made against another party or parties, notify each party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so notify such party or parties shall not relieve the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any obligation it or they may have under this Section 8(d) or otherwise. The obligations of the Initial Purchasers to contribute pursuant to this Section 8(d) are several in proportion to the respective aggregate principal amount of Offered Notes purchased by each of the Initial Purchasers under this Agreement and not joint. The obligations of the Domino’s Parties to contribute pursuant to this Section 8(d) shall be joint and several.
(e) The Initial Purchasers severally confirm and the Domino’s Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the statements with respect to the offering of the Offered Notes by the Initial Purchasers set forth in the third to last paragraph (relating to overallotment, stabilization and similar activities) of the section entitled “Plan of Distribution” in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum and (ii) the names of the Initial Purchasers set forth on the front and back cover page of the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Final Offering Memorandum constitute the only information concerning such Initial
41
Purchasers furnished in writing to the Domino’s Parties by or on behalf of the Initial Purchasers specifically for inclusion in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum or in any Blue Sky Application or Marketing Materials (such statements in clause (i) and written information in clause (ii), the “Initial Purchaser Information”).
9. Consent. Each Initial Purchaser hereby agrees, in its capacity as holder of the Notes and as Initial Purchaser, to (i) the Ninth Supplement to the Amended and Restated Base Indenture, to be dated as of the Closing Date, to be entered into by and among the Co-Issuers and Citibank, N.A., as the Trustee and the securities intermediary thereunder, and (ii) the Omnibus Amendment and Reaffirmation Agreement, to be dated as of the Closing Date, to be entered into by and among the Securitization Entities, the Manager, the Trustee, Progressive Food Solutions LLC, Domino’s Pizza NS Co., Domino’s Pizza, Inc., Citibank, N.A., Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, FTI Consulting, Inc., as back-up manager, and Barclays Capital Inc. (the supplement and amendments identified in clauses (i) and (ii) of this sentence being referred to herein collectively as the “Amendments” and each, as an “Amendment”), and in their respective capacities as Noteholders hereby (x) direct the Control Party, where such direction from the Noteholders is required, to consent to the Amendments and (y) waive notice of any Consent Request or Consent Recommendation that would otherwise be required pursuant to Section 11.4(c) of the Base Indenture in connection with the Amendments.
10. Defaulting Initial Purchasers.
(a) If, on the Closing Date, either Initial Purchaser defaults in its obligations to purchase the Offered Notes that it has agreed to purchase under this Agreement, the remaining non-defaulting Initial Purchaser may in its discretion arrange for the purchase of such Offered Notes by the non-defaulting Initial Purchaser or other persons satisfactory to the Co-Issuers on the terms contained in this Agreement. If, within 36 hours after any such default by any Initial Purchaser, the non-defaulting Initial Purchaser does not arrange for the purchase of such Offered Notes, then the Co-Issuers shall be entitled to a further period of 36 hours within which to procure other persons reasonably satisfactory to the non-defaulting Initial Purchaser to purchase such Offered Notes on such terms. In the event that within the respective prescribed periods, the non-defaulting Initial Purchaser notifies the Co-Issuers that they have so arranged for the purchase of such Offered Notes, or the Co-Issuers notify the non-defaulting Initial Purchaser that they have so arranged for the purchase of such Offered Notes, either the non-defaulting Initial Purchaser or the Co-Issuers may postpone the Closing Date for up to seven full Business Days in order to effect any changes that in the opinion of counsel for the Co-Issuers or counsel for the Initial Purchasers may be necessary in the Pricing Disclosure Package, the Final Offering Memorandum or in any other document or arrangement, and the Co-Issuers agree to promptly prepare any amendment or supplement to the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Final Offering Memorandum that effects any such changes. As used in this Agreement, the term “Initial Purchaser” includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless the context requires otherwise, any party not listed in Schedule I hereto that, pursuant to this Section 10, purchases Offered Notes that a defaulting Initial Purchaser agreed but failed to purchase.

(b) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Offered Notes of a defaulting Initial Purchaser by the non-defaulting Initial Purchaser and any persons procured by the Co-Issuers as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of such Offered Notes that remains unpurchased does not exceed one-eighth of the aggregate principal amount of all the Offered Notes, then the Co-Issuers shall have the right to require the non-defaulting Initial Purchaser to purchase the principal amount of Offered Notes that such Initial Purchaser agreed to purchase hereunder plus the principal amount of Offered Notes that the defaulting Initial Purchaser agreed to purchase hereunder for which such arrangements have not been made.
(c) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Offered Notes of a defaulting Initial Purchaser by the non-defaulting Initial Purchaser and any persons procured by the Co-Issuers as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of such Offered Notes that remains unpurchased exceeds one-eighth of the aggregate principal amount of all the Offered Notes, or if the Co-Issuers shall not exercise the right described in paragraph (b) above, then this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Initial Purchaser. Any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10 shall be without liability on the part of the Domino’s Parties, except that the Domino’s Parties will continue to be liable for the payment of expenses as set forth in Sections 6 and 13 except with respect to a defaulting Initial Purchaser and except that the provisions of Section 8 shall not terminate and shall remain in effect.
(d) Nothing contained herein shall relieve a defaulting Initial Purchaser of any liability it may have to the Domino’s Parties or any non-defaulting Initial Purchaser for damages caused by its default.
11. Termination. Each Initial Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement (with respect to such Initial Purchaser only) at any time prior to the Closing Date, if, at or after the Applicable Time: (i) any domestic or international event or act or occurrence has materially disrupted, or in the opinion of such Initial Purchaser will in the immediate future materially disrupt, the market for the Co-Issuers’ securities or securities in general; or (ii) trading on the NYSE or NASDAQ shall have been suspended or been made subject to material limitations, or minimum or maximum prices for trading shall have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices for securities shall have been required, on the NYSE or NASDAQ or by order of the Commission or any other governmental authority having jurisdiction; or (iii) a banking moratorium has been declared by any state or federal authority or any material disruption in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services shall have occurred; or (iv) (A) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or acts of terrorism involving the United States or there is a declaration of a national emergency or war by the United States or (B) there shall have been any other calamity or crisis or any change in political, financial or economic conditions if the effect of any such event in (A) or (B), in the judgment of such Initial Purchaser, makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale and delivery of the Offered Notes, on the terms and in the manner contemplated by the Final Offering Memorandum; or (v) any of the events described in Sections 7(s), 7(t) or 7(u) shall have occurred or the Initial Purchasers shall decline to purchase the Offered Notes for any reason permitted under this Agreement. Any notice of termination pursuant to this Section 11 shall be in writing.
43
12. Non-Assignability. None of the Domino’s Parties may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement. The Initial Purchasers may not assign their respective rights and obligations under this Agreement, except that each Initial Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of its affiliates as the purchaser of the Offered Notes that it has agreed to purchase hereunder (“Substituting Initial Purchaser”), by a written notice to the Co-Issuers, which notice shall be signed by both the Substituting Initial Purchaser and such affiliate, shall contain such affiliate’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such affiliate of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 3; provided that the Substituting Initial Purchaser shall remain liable for its obligations hereunder. Upon receipt of such notice, wherever the word “Initial Purchaser” is used in this Agreement (other than in this Section 12), such word shall be deemed to refer to such affiliate in lieu of the Substituting Initial Purchaser.
13. Reimbursement of Initial Purchasers’ Expenses. If (a) the Co-Issuers for any reason fail to tender the Offered Notes for delivery to the Initial Purchasers, or (b) the Initial Purchasers decline to purchase the Offered Notes for any reason permitted under this Agreement, the Co-Issuers, the Parent Companies, the Manager and the Guarantors shall jointly and severally reimburse the Initial Purchasers for all reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel for the Initial Purchasers and without double counting expenses paid pursuant to any section of this Agreement) incurred by the Initial Purchasers in connection with this Agreement and the proposed purchase of the Offered Notes, and upon demand shall pay the full amount thereof to the Initial Purchasers. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10 by reason of the default of one or both Initial Purchasers, the Co-Issuers shall not be obligated to reimburse any defaulting Initial Purchaser for any of its expenses.
14. Notices, etc. All statements, requests, notices and agreements hereunder shall be in writing, and:
