Abstract
We present a new mechanism for baryogenesis, which links the baryon asymmetry of the universe to the dark matter density. The mechanism arises naturally in the Pentagon model of TeV scale physics. In that context, it forces a re-evaluation of some of the assumptions of the model, and we detail the changes that are required in order to fit observations.

JHEP3 LaTeX, 15 pages. New version corrects errors in the electroweak baryon violating and matter radiation temperatures, which were pointed out by the referee. Substantial quantitative but no qualitative change to our conclusions
