Lender any payments received by the Agent on behalf of such Lender.  Except as
otherwise expressly provided herein, whenever any payment (including principal of or
interest on the Loan or any fees or other amounts) hereunder or under any other Loan
Document shall become due, or otherwise would occur, on a day that is not a Business
Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension
of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, if applicable.
The Borrower shall make all payments under this Agreement without setoff, recoupment
or deduction and regardless of any counterclaim or defense.
(e) Exit Fee.  Upon payment in full of the Loan, whether pursuant to Section
2.1(c) or by a principal prepayment pursuant to Section 2.4, the Borrower shall pay the Exit
Fee to the Lenders.

US 168351484v13
2.2 Maximum Interest.  Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement or
any other Loan Document, it is the parties’ intent not to contract for, charge or receive interest at
a rate that is greater than the maximum rate permissible by law that a court of competent
jurisdiction shall deem applicable hereto (which under the laws of the State of New York shall be
deemed to be the laws relating to permissible rates of interest on commercial loans) (the
 “Maximum Rate”). If a court of competent jurisdiction shall finally determine that the Borrower
has actually paid to the Lenders an amount of interest in excess of the amount that would have
been payable if all of the Secured Obligations had at all times borne interest at the Maximum Rate,
then such excess interest actually paid by the Borrower shall be applied as follows: first, to the
payment of the Secured Obligations consisting of the outstanding principal; second, after all
principal is repaid, to the payment of the Lenders’ accrued interest, costs, expenses, professional
fees and any other Secured Obligations; and third, after all Secured Obligations are repaid, the
excess (if any) shall be refunded to the Borrower.
2.3 Default Interest.    Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an
Event of Default hereunder, all Secured Obligations, including principal, interest, compounded
interest, and professional fees, shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Default Interest
Rate.   In the event that any interest or other amount is not paid when due hereunder, such
delinquent interest or other amount shall bear interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate until
paid.
2.4 Prepayment.
(a) At its option upon at least 30 Business Days’ prior written notice to the
Agent, the Borrower may prepay all or any portion of the principal balance of the Loan; provided
that such prepayment is accompanied by a payment of and all accrued and unpaid interest on the
amount so prepaid, together with any applicable Prepayment Charge.
(b) The Borrower agrees that the Prepayment Charge is a reasonable calculation
of the Lenders’ lost profits in view of the difficulties and impracticality of determining actual
damages resulting from an early repayment of the Loan. The Borrower shall prepay the outstanding
amount of all principal and accrued interest through the prepayment date and the Prepayment
Charge upon the occurrence of a Change in Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Agent and
the Lenders agree to waive the Prepayment Charge if the Agent and the Lenders (in their sole and
absolute discretion) agree in writing to refinance the Loan prior to the Maturity Date.
(c) In connection with any optional or mandatory prepayment, including
without limitation a mandatory prepayment due to a Change in Control, due to a sale of a material
portion of the Borrower’s assets or due to acceleration of the Loan following an Event of Default,
the Borrower shall pay to the Lenders a prepayment charge equal to the following percentages of
the amount being prepaid (the “Prepayment Charge”): (i) if such prepayment is made on or
before the first Payment Date after the Closing Date, 30.00% of the principal prepaid; (ii) if such
prepayment is made thereafter through the second anniversary of the first Payment Date, a
percentage of the principal then prepaid equal to 30.00% minus the product of 1.25% times the
number of Payment Dates preceding the date of such prepayment, and if such prepayment is made
after the second anniversary of the first Payment Date following the Closing Date, 0.00% of the 





	
	22
US 168351484v13
principal prepaid.  There will be no Prepayment Charge in connection with required amortization
payments on each Amortization Date pursuant to Section 2.1(c).
(d) Promptly upon receipt thereof, at least 50% of the proceeds of any
Disposition of a Material Asset (other than sale of inventory in the ordinary course of business),
net of any reasonable and documented expenses incurred in connection with such Disposition,
shall be applied to prepayment of the Loan.  Such requirement shall be in addition to any
mandatory prepayment in full in connection with a Change in Control without the consent of the
Agent as restricted pursuant to Sections 8.10 and 9.9, and any restriction on any Disposition of the
Borrower’s assets pursuant to Sections 8.1 and 8.4.
2.5 Notes.    If so requested by any Lender by written notice to the Borrower, the
Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (and/or, if applicable and if so specified in such
notice, to any Person who is an assignee of such Lender pursuant to Section 11.13) (promptly after
the Borrower’s receipt of such notice) a Note or Notes to evidence such Lender’s Advance.
2.6 Pro Rata Treatment.  Each payment (including prepayment) on account of
interest or any fee payable to the Lenders and any reduction in the principal balance of the Loans
shall be made pro rata according to the respective Advances of the relevant Lenders.
2.7 Reserve Requirements; Increased Costs.
(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in
Law shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar
requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of or credit extended by any
Lender or shall impose on such Lender any Taxes (other than Indemnified Taxes or the
imposition of, or any increase in the rate of, any Excluded Taxes) or any other condition
affecting this Agreement or the Advance made by such Lender or any participation therein,
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making
or maintaining any Advance or increase the cost to any Lender of purchasing or
maintaining a participation therein or to reduce the amount of any sum received or
receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) by an
amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then the Borrower will pay to such Lender,
upon demand, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such
additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.    A certificate from such Lender to DDH
certifying, in reasonably specific detail, the basis for, calculation of, and amount of such
additional costs or reduced amount receivable shall be conclusive in the absence of
manifest error; provided, however, that no Lender shall be required to disclose any
confidential or tax planning information in any such certificate.
(b) If any Lender shall have determined that any Change in Law regarding
capital adequacy has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such
Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a
consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender pursuant hereto to a
level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have
achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and
the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy) by an 





	
	23
US 168351484v13
amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time the Borrower shall
pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or
such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.    A certificate from such
Lender to DDH certifying, in reasonably specific detail, the basis for, calculation of, and
amount of such reduced amount receivable shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest
error; provided, however, that no Lender shall be required to disclose any confidential or
tax planning information in any such certificate.
(c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to
compensate such Lender or its holding company, as applicable, as specified in
paragraph (a) or (b) above shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent
manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such
certificate delivered by it within 10 days after its receipt of the same.
(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation for any
increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on
capital shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation;
provided that the Borrower shall not be under any obligation to compensate any Lender
under paragraph (a) or (b) above with respect to increased costs or reductions with respect
to any period prior to the date that is 180 days prior to such request if such Lender knew or
could reasonably have been expected to know of the circumstances giving rise to such
increased costs or reductions and of the fact that such circumstances would result in a claim
for increased compensation by reason of such increased costs or reductions; provided
further that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any increased costs or reductions
arising out of the retroactive application of any Change in Law within such 180-day period.
The protection of this Section shall be available to each Lender regardless of any possible
contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the Change in Law that shall have occurred
or been imposed.
2.8 Taxes
(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower
hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without
deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law; provided
that, if any Borrower Entity or Guarantor shall be required by applicable law to deduct or
withhold any Taxes from such payments, then (i) in the case of Indemnified Taxes, the sum
payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions or
withholdings (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable
under this Section) the Agent and each Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount
equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the
Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings, and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the
full amount so deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance
with applicable law.
(b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 





	
	24
US 168351484v13
(c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Agent and each Lender within 10 days
after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including
Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this
Section) paid by the Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any
payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other
Loan Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto,
whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed
or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such
payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender, or by the Agent on behalf of
itself or a Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the
Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority
evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence
of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.
(e) Any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent
on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and
from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent)
executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal
backup withholding tax. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or
reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is
located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under
this Agreement shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower
and the Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested
by the Borrower or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation
prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will
permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate.    In addition,
any Lender, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, shall deliver such other
documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or
the Agent as will enable the Borrower (or the Agent) to determine whether or not such
Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.   If a
payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal
withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the
applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section
1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower
and the Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably
requested by the Borrower or the Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law
(including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional
documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for
the Borrower and the Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine
that such Lender has complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine the
amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of the preceding
sentence, “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this
Agreement. Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered 





	
	25
US 168351484v13
expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or
certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent in writing of its legal inability
to do so.
(f) If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it
has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this
Section 2.8 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.8),
it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent
of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.8 with respect to the Taxes giving rise
to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified
party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental
Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such
indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to
this Section 2.8(f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant
Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such
refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section 2.8(f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an
indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.8(f) the payment of which would place the
indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party
would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had
not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or
additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not
be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its tax returns (or any other
information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or
any other Person.
(g) Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.8 shall survive any assignment
of rights by, or the replacement of, any Lender or the Agent, and the repayment, satisfaction
or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.
2.9 Duty to Mitigate.
(a) In the event (i) any Lender delivers a certificate requesting compensation
pursuant to Section 2.7 or (ii)   the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to
any Lender or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender pursuant to Section
2.8, then, in each case, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to
such Lender and the Agent, require such Lender to transfer and assign, without recourse
(in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Sections 12.7 and 12.13),
all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an eligible Assignee
(which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided
that (x) such assignment shall not conflict with any law, rule or regulation or order of any
court or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction, (y) the Borrower shall have
received the prior written consent of the Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be
withheld or delayed, and (z) the Borrower or such assignee shall have paid to the affected
Lender in immediately available funds an amount equal to the sum of the principal of and
interest accrued to the date of such payment on the outstanding Advance of such Lender
plus all fees and other amounts accrued for the account of such Lender hereunder with 





	
	26
US 168351484v13
respect thereto (including any amounts under Section 2.7); provided further that, if prior to
any such transfer and assignment the circumstances or event that resulted in such Lender’s
claim for compensation under Section 2.7 or the amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.8, as
the case may be, cease to cause such Lender to suffer increased costs or reductions in
amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital, or cease to result in
amounts being payable under Section 2.8, as the case may be (including as a result of any
action taken by such Lender pursuant to paragraph (b) below), or if such Lender shall waive
its right to claim further compensation under Section 2.7 in respect of such circumstances
or event or shall waive its right to further payments under Section 2.8 in respect of such
circumstances or event, then such Lender shall not thereafter be required to make any such
transfer and assignment hereunder.
(b) If (i) any Lender shall request compensation under Section 2.7 or (ii) the
Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental
Authority on account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.8, then such Lender shall use
reasonable efforts (which shall not require such Lender to incur an unreimbursed loss or
unreimbursed cost or expense or otherwise take any action inconsistent with its internal
policies or legal or regulatory restrictions or suffer any disadvantage or burden deemed by
it to be significant) (x) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested in writing
by the Borrower or (y) to assign its rights and delegate and transfer its obligations
hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if such filing or assignment would
reduce its claims for compensation under Section 2.7 or would reduce amounts payable
pursuant to Section 2.8, as the case may be, in the future. The Borrower hereby agrees to
pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such
filing or assignment, delegation and transfer.
SECTION 3.  SECURITY INTEREST
3.1 Grant of Security Interest.
(a) As security for the prompt and complete payment when due (whether on
Payment Dates, on the Maturity Date or otherwise) of all the Secured Obligations, the
Borrower grants to the Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in
all of the Borrower’s right, title, and interest in, to and under all of the Borrower’s property

	27
US 168351484v13

the recording of a statement of use with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or

Trademark Office of an amendment to allege use of an intent-to-use trademark application
pursuant to 15 U.S.C. Section 1060(a) (or any successor provision) such intent-to-use application
shall constitute Collateral, and (b) nonassignable licenses or contracts, which by their terms require
the consent of the licensor thereof or another party, to the extent identified as nonassignable on
Exhibit C or Exhibit H (but only to the extent such prohibition on transfer is enforceable under
applicable law, including, without limitation, Sections 9-406, 9-407 and 9-408 of the UCC).
3.3 Delivery of Collateral.  All certificates or instruments representing or
evidencing Collateral (other than such Collateral having an aggregate value of no more than
$10,000) shall be delivered to and held by the Agent pursuant to this Agreement, shall be in
suitable form for transfer by delivery or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of
transfer or assignment in blank, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent and, to the
extent not constituting an assignment, shall be irrevocable powers of attorney coupled with an
interest.   Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Agent shall have the right, at any time
and without notice to the Borrower or any Secured Party, to transfer to or to register in the name
of the Agent or any of its nominees any or all of the Collateral. 





	
	28
US 168351484v13
3.4 Borrower Remains Liable.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement
to the contrary, (a) each of the Borrower Entities who are parties thereto shall remain liable under
the Material Contracts and other agreements included in the Collateral to perform all of its duties
and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (b) the

obligations under the Material Contracts or other agreements included in the Collateral, (c) the
Agent as agent of the Lenders and the Agent as agent of the Secured Parties shall not have any
obligation or liability under the Material Contracts or other agreements included in the Collateral

to perform any of the obligations or duties of the Borrower under the Material Contracts or other

payment assigned under this Agreement.
3.5 Further Assurances; Financing Statements.
(a) The Borrower agrees that, at any time and from time to time, it shall at the
expense of the Borrower promptly authorize, execute and deliver, as applicable, all further
instruments and documents and take all further action that may be necessary or desirable
or that the Agent may reasonably request to maintain the perfection of the Agent’s security
interest in the Collateral.   Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower
shall authorize, execute and file, as applicable, such financing or continuation statements,
or amendments thereto, and such other instruments or notices as may be necessary or
desirable or that the Agent may request to perfect the assignments and security interests
granted by this Agreement.
(b) The Borrower and the Lenders hereby severally authorize the Agent to file
one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relating to all
or any part of the Collateral without the signature of the Borrower or the Secured Parties

Borrower any financing or continuation statements thereto which it files without the
signature of the Borrower.    The Agent will promptly send the Borrower or the Secured
Parties, as the case may be, the filing or recordation information with respect thereto.
(c) The Borrower shall furnish to the Agent from time to time such statements
and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral and such other reports in

SECTION 5.  REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE BORROWER
The Borrower represents and warrants to the Agent and the Lenders as of the date hereof
and on each date thereafter until all Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnification
obligations as to which no claim has been asserted) are paid in full that:

automatically be accelerated and made due and payable, in each case without any further notice or
act), (ii) the Agent may, at its option, sign and file in any Borrower Entity’s name any and all
collateral assignments, notices, control agreements, security agreements and other documents it
deems necessary or appropriate to perfect or protect the repayment of the Secured Obligations, and
in furtherance thereof, the Borrower hereby grants the Agent an irrevocable power of attorney
coupled with an interest, and (iii) the Agent may notify any of the Borrower’s account debtors to
make payment directly to the Agent, compromise the amount of any such account on the
Borrower’s behalf and endorse the Agent’s name without recourse on any such payment for
deposit directly to the Agent’s account. The Agent may, and at the direction of the Required
Lenders shall, exercise all rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral under the Loan
Documents or otherwise available to it under the UCC and other applicable law, including the right
to release, hold, sell, lease, liquidate, collect, realize upon, or otherwise dispose of all or any part
of the Collateral and the right to occupy, utilize, process and commingle the Collateral. All the
Agent’s rights and remedies shall be cumulative and not exclusive.
10.2 Equity Cure.  Subject to the last sentence of this Section 10.2, the Borrower
may cure (and shall be deemed to have cured) an Event of Default arising out of a breach of any
of the financial covenants set forth in clauses (a), (b) or (c) of Section 7.2 (the “Specified Financial
Covenants”) if (i) the Borrower receives, within 15 Business Days after the date on which the
Specified Financial Covenants are first required to be tested pursuant to the terms hereof, cash

compliance with such Specified Financial Covenants, and (ii) the Agent receives written notice
from the Borrower that such payment has been made and that it is to be deemed an Equity Cure
hereunder.    Upon any Equity Cure of a Specified Financial Covenant, any Event of Default that
occurred and is continuing from a breach of such Specified Financial Covenant shall be deemed
cured with no further action required by the Agent or the Lender.    An Equity Cure may not be
used to cure an Event of Default more than twice in any calendar year (or be in an aggregate
amount of such cash proceeds in any calendar year of more than $2,000,000), or more than four
times during the term of this Agreement (including any extension thereof).
10.3 Collection; Foreclosure.    Upon the occurrence and during the continuance
of any Event of Default, the Agent may, and at the direction of the Required Lenders shall, at any
time or from time to time, apply, collect, liquidate, sell in one or more sales, lease or otherwise
dispose of, any or all of the Collateral, in its then condition or following any commercially
reasonable preparation or processing, in such order as the Agent may elect. Any such sale may be
made either at public or private sale at its place of business or elsewhere. The Borrower agrees that
any such public or private sale may occur upon 10 calendar days’ prior written notice to the 





	
	53
US 168351484v13
Borrower. The Agent may require the Borrower to assemble the Collateral and make it available
to the Agent at a place designated by the Agent that is reasonably convenient to the Agent and the
Borrower. The proceeds of any sale, disposition or other realization upon all or any part of the
Collateral shall be applied by the Agent in the following order of priorities:
First, to the Agent and the Lenders in an amount sufficient to pay in full the Agent’s
and the Lenders’ reasonable costs and professionals’ and advisors’ fees and
expenses as described in Section 11.11;
Second, to the Lenders in an amount equal to the then unpaid amount of the Secured
Obligations (including principal and interest at the Default Interest Rate), in such
order and priority as the Agent may choose in its sole discretion; and
Finally, after the full and final payment in Cash of all of the Secured Obligations
(other than inchoate obligations), to any creditor holding a junior Lien on the
Collateral, or to the Borrower or its representatives or as a court of competent
jurisdiction may direct.
The Agent shall be deemed to have acted reasonably in the custody, preservation and disposition
of any of the Collateral if it complies with the obligations of a secured party under the UCC.
10.4 No Waiver.    The Agent shall be under no obligation to marshal any of the
Collateral for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Person, and the Borrower expressly waives
all rights, if any, to require the Agent to marshal any Collateral.
10.5 Cumulative Remedies.   The rights, powers and remedies of the Agent
hereunder shall be in addition to all rights, powers and remedies given by statute or rule of law and
are cumulative. The exercise of any one or more of the rights, powers and remedies provided herein
shall not be construed as a waiver of or election of remedies with respect to any other rights, powers
and remedies of the Agent.

11.4 No Strict Construction.  The parties hereto have participated jointly in the
negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or

any such powers. No omission or delay by the Agent or the Lenders at any time to enforce any
right or remedy reserved to it, or to require performance of any of the terms, covenants or
provisions hereof by the Borrower at any time designated, shall be a waiver of any such right or
remedy to which the Agent or the Lenders is entitled, nor shall it in any way affect the right of the
Agent or the Lenders to enforce such provisions thereafter.

DDH, assign or otherwise transfer its rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan

US 168351484v13
11.8 Governing Law.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents have
been negotiated and delivered to the Agent and the Lenders in the State of New York, and shall
have been accepted by the Agent and the Lenders in the State of New York. Payment to the Agent
and the Lenders by the Borrower of the Secured Obligations is due in the State of New York. THIS
AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY
SET FORTH IN THE LOAN DOCUMENTS) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, EXCLYUDING
CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD CAUSE APPLICATION OF LAWS OF
ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.
11.9 Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue.
(a) the Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and
its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of
the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any
thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the
parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of
any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to
the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court.  Each of the parties hereto agrees that
a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced
in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.
Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Agent or any Lender may
otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents against the Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in any New York State or Federal court.

the manner provided for notices in Section 11.2.  Nothing in this Agreement will affect

wish applicable state and federal laws to apply (rather than arbitration rules), the parties desire that
their disputes be resolved by a judge applying such applicable laws. EACH PARTY HERETO
HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW,
ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION 





	
	57

DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH

WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY CAUSE OF ACTION, CLAIM, CROSS-CLAIM,
COUNTERCLAIM, THIRD PARTY CLAIM OR ANY OTHER CLAIM (COLLECTIVELY,
 “CLAIMS”) ASSERTED BY THE BORROWER AGAINST THE AGENT, THE LENDERS OR
THEIR RESPECTIVE ASSIGNEES OR BY THE AGENT, THE LENDERS OR THEIR
RESPECTIVE ASSIGNEES AGAINST THE BORROWER.    EACH PARTY HERETO
(A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER
PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER
PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE
FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES
HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL
WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.10.
(b) This waiver extends to all such Claims, including Claims that involve
Persons other than the Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders; Claims that arise out of or are in any
way connected to the relationship among the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders; and any Claims
for damages, breach of contract, tort, specific performance, or any equitable or legal relief of any
kind, arising out of this Agreement, any other Loan Document.
11.11 Professional Fees.   The Borrower promises to pay the Agent’s and the
Lenders’ fees and expenses necessary to finalize the loan documentation, including but not limited
to reasonable attorneys’ fees, UCC searches, filing costs, and other miscellaneous expenses. In
addition, the Borrower promises to pay any and all reasonable attorneys’ and other professionals’
fees and expenses incurred by the Agent and the Lenders after the Closing Date in connection with
or related to:  (a) the Loan; (b) the administration, collection, or enforcement of the Loan; (c) the
amendment or modification of the Loan Documents; (d) any waiver, consent, release, or
termination under the Loan Documents; (e) the protection, preservation, audit, field exam, sale,
lease, liquidation, or disposition of Collateral or the exercise of remedies with respect to the
Collateral; (f) any legal, litigation, administrative, arbitration, or out of court proceeding in
connection with or related to the Borrower or the Collateral, and any appeal or review thereof; and
(g) any bankruptcy, restructuring, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors, workout,
foreclosure, or other action related to the Borrower, the Collateral, the Loan Documents, including
representing the Agent or the Lenders in any adversary proceeding or contested matter commenced
or continued by or on behalf of the Borrower’s estate, and any appeal or review thereof.
11.12 Confidentiality.  The Agent and the Lenders acknowledge that certain
items of Collateral and information provided to the Agent and the Lenders by the Borrower are
confidential and proprietary information of the Borrower, if and to the extent such information
either (x) is marked as confidential by the Borrower at the time of disclosure, or (y) should
reasonably be understood to be confidential (the “Confidential Information”).  Accordingly, the
Agent and the Lenders agree that any Confidential Information it may obtain in the course of
acquiring, administering, or perfecting    the Agent’s security interest in the Collateral shall not be
disclosed to any other Person or entity in any manner whatsoever, in whole or in part, without the
prior written consent of the Borrower, except that the Agent and the Lenders may each disclose
any such information:  (a) to its own directors, officers, employees, accountants, counsel and 





	
	58
US 168351484v13
other professional advisors and to its Affiliates, equity owners and investors if the Agent or any
such Lender in its reasonable discretion determines that any such party should have access to such
information in connection with such party’s responsibilities in connection with the Loan or this
Agreement or its own governing documents; provided that such recipient of such Confidential
Information either (i) agrees to be bound by the confidentiality provisions of this paragraph or (ii)
is otherwise subject to confidentiality restrictions that reasonably protect against the disclosure of
Confidential Information; (b) if such information is generally available to the public; (c) if required
or appropriate in any report, statement or testimony submitted to any governmental authority
having or claiming to have jurisdiction over the Agent or any such Lender; (d) if required or
appropriate in response to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation, to the
extent permitted or deemed advisable by the Agent’s or any such Lender’s counsel; (e) to comply
with any legal requirement or law applicable to the Agent or any such Lender; (f) to the extent
reasonably necessary in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy under any Loan
Document, including the Agent’s sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral after default; (g) to
any participant or assignee of the Agent or any such Lender or any prospective such participant or
assignee; provided that such participant or assignee or prospective participant or assignee agrees
in writing to be bound by this Section prior to disclosure; or (h) otherwise with the prior consent
of the Borrower; provided that any disclosure made in violation of this Agreement shall not affect
the obligations of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates or any guarantor under this Agreement or
the other Loan Documents.    The Agent’s and the Lenders’ obligations under this Section 11.12
shall supersede all of their respective obligations under any nondisclosure agreement with the
Borrower existing prior to the Closing Date.
11.13 Assignment of Rights.
(a) The Borrower acknowledges and understands that the Agent or any Lender
may sell and assign all or part of its interest hereunder and under the Loan Documents to
any Person or entity (an “Assignee”).  After such assignment the term “the Agent” or “the
Lenders” as used in the Loan Documents shall mean and include such Assignee, and such
Assignee shall be vested with all rights, powers and remedies of the Agent and the Lenders
hereunder with respect to the interest so assigned; but with respect to any such interest not
so transferred, the Agent and the Lenders shall retain all rights, powers and remedies
hereby given. No such assignment by the Agent or the Lenders shall relieve the Borrower
of any of its obligations hereunder.
(b) The Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall
maintain at one of its offices records of the name and address of, and the commitments of
and the principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loan owing to, each Lender from time
to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest
error. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender (but
only with respect to any entry relating to such Lender’s commitments or Loans) at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. No assignment shall
be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as
provided in this Section 11.13.
(c) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as
a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and 





	
	59
US 168351484v13
address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each
participant’s interest in the Loan or other obligations under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any
obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity
of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in the Loan) to any
Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Loan is
in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.
The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such
Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the
owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice
to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have
no responsibility for maintaining any Participant Register.
(d) This Section 11.13 shall be construed so that the Loans are at all times
maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and
881(c)(2) of the Code and any related regulations (and any successor provisions).
11.14 Revival of Secured Obligations.   This Agreement and the Loan
Documents shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective if any petition is filed
by or against the Borrower for liquidation or reorganization, if the Borrower becomes insolvent or
makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, if a receiver or trustee is appointed for all or any
significant part of the Borrower’s assets, or if any payment or transfer of Collateral is recovered
from the Agent or the Lenders. The Loan Documents and the Secured Obligations and Collateral
security shall continue to be effective, or shall be revived or reinstated, as the case may be, if at
any time payment and performance of the Secured Obligations or any transfer of Collateral to the
Agent, or any part thereof is rescinded, avoided or avoidable, reduced in amount, or must otherwise
be restored or returned by, or is recovered from, the Agent, the Lenders or by any obligee of the
Secured Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise,
all as though such payment, performance, or transfer of Collateral had not been made. In the event
that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, avoided, avoidable, restored, returned,
or recovered, the Loan Documents and the Secured Obligations shall be deemed, without any
further action or documentation, to have been revived and reinstated except to the extent of the
full, final, and indefeasible payment to the Agent or the Lenders in Cash.
11.15 Counterparts.  This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or
supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by different parties hereto
in separate counterparts, each of which when so delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of
which counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.
11.16 No Third Party Beneficiaries.    No provisions of the Loan Documents are
intended, nor will be interpreted, to provide or create any third-party beneficiary rights or any other
rights of any kind in any Person other than the Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower unless
specifically provided otherwise herein, and, except as otherwise so provided, all provisions of the
Loan Documents will be personal and solely among the Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower.

11.17 Agency.
(a) The Lenders hereby irrevocably appoint Silverpeak Credit Partners, LP to
act on their behalf as the Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorize the
Agent to take such actions on their behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Agent
by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto.
(b) The Lenders agree to indemnify the Agent in its capacity as such (to the
extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do
so), according to its respective Loan Advance percentages (based upon the total outstanding Loan
Advances) in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 11.17, from
and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time be imposed on,
incurred by or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, this Agreement,
any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or
therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the
Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing.  The agreements in this Section shall
survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.
(c) The Person serving as the Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and
powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it
were not the Agent and the term “Lender” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the
context otherwise requires, include each such Person serving as the Agent hereunder in its
individual capacity.
(d) The Agent shall have no duties or obligations except those expressly set
forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Agent shall not:
(i) be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of
whether any default or any Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing;
(ii) have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any
discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers
expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that
the Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the
Lenders; provided that the Agent shall not be required to take any

HQWHUHGLQWRE\DQGEHWZHHQ>Ɣ@D>Ɣ@FRUSRUDWLRQWKH3Subsidiary”), and SILVERPEAK
CREDIT PARTNERS, LP, a Delaware limited partnership, as Agent (the “Agent”).
RECITALS
A.  Direct Digital Holdings, LLC (“DDH”) and Qualified Subsidiaries of DDH from time
to time parties thereto, as borrower (collectively, the “Borrower”) have entered into that certain
Loan and Security Agreement dated September 30, 2020, with the several financial institutions or
entities from time to time party thereto as lender (the “Lenders”) and the Agent, as such agreement
may be amended (the “Loan Agreement”), together with the other agreements executed and
delivered in connection therewith;
B.  The Subsidiary acknowledges and agrees that it will benefit both directly and
indirectly from the Borrower’s execution of the Loan Agreement and the other agreements
executed and delivered in connection therewith;
AGREEMENT
NOW THEREFORE, the Subsidiary and the Agent agree as follows:
1. The recitals set forth above are incorporated into and made part of this Joinder Agreement.
Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meaning provided in the Loan Agreement.
2.   By signing this Joinder Agreement, the Subsidiary shall be bound by the terms and conditions
of the Loan Agreement as a Borrower Entity (as defined in the Loan Agreement) under the Loan
Agreement, mutatis mutandis; provided, however, that (a) with respect to (i) Section 5.1 of the
Loan Agreement, the Subsidiary represents that it is an entity duly organized, legally existing
DQGLQJRRGVWDQGLQJXQGHUWKHODZVRI>Ɣ@EQHLWKHUWKH$JHQWQRUWKH/HQGHUVVKDOOKDYHDQ\
duties, responsibilities or obligations to the Subsidiary arising under or related to the Loan
Agreement or the other Loan Documents, (c) that if the Subsidiary is covered by DDH’s
insurance, the Subsidiary shall not be required to maintain separate insurance or comply with
the provisions of Sections 6.1 and 6.2 of the Loan Agreement, and (d) that as long as the
Borrower satisfies the requirements of Section 7.1 of the Loan Agreement, the Subsidiary shall
not have to provide the Agent with separate Financial Statements.    To the extent that the Agent
or the Lenders have any duties, responsibilities or obligations arising under or related to the
Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents, those duties, responsibilities or obligations shall
flow only to DDH and not to the Subsidiary or any other Person or entity.    By way of example
(and not an exclusive list): (i) the Agent’s providing notice to the Borrower in accordance with
the Loan Agreement or as otherwise agreed among the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders
shall be deemed provided to the Subsidiary; (ii) a Lender’s providing an Advance to DDH shall
be deemed an Advance to the Subsidiary; and (iii) the Subsidiary shall have no right to make
any demand on any Lender.

3. The Subsidiary agrees not to certificate its equity securities without the Agent’s prior written
consent, which consent may be conditioned on the delivery of such equity securities to the
Agent in order to perfect the Agent’s security interest in such equity securities.
4. The Subsidiary acknowledges that it benefits, both directly and indirectly, from the Loan
Agreement, and hereby waives, for itself and on behalf on any and all successors in interest
(including without limitation any assignee for the benefit of creditors, receiver, bankruptcy
trustee or itself as debtor-in-possession under any bankruptcy proceeding) to the fullest extent
provided by law, any and all claims, rights or defenses to the enforcement of this Joinder
Agreement on the basis that (a) it failed to receive adequate consideration for the execution and
delivery of this Joinder Agreement or (b) its obligations under this Joinder Agreement are
avoidable as a fraudulent conveyance.
5. As security for the prompt, complete and indefeasible payment when due (whether on the
payment dates or otherwise) of all the Secured Obligations, the Subsidiary grants to the Agent
(for the benefit of the Secured Parties) a security interest in all of the Subsidiary’s right, title,
and interest in and to the Collateral.
