STOCK PLEDGE AGREEMENT




This Stock Pledge Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of August 31, 2007, among
Kallina Corporation (the “Pledgee”), Digital Angel Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”), and each of the other undersigned parties (other than the Pledgee) (the Company
and each such other undersigned party, a “Pledgor” and collectively, the
“Pledgors”).



BACKGROUND




The Company and certain subsidiaries of the Company have entered into a Security Agreement
dated as of the date hereof (as amended, modified, restated or supplemented from time to time, the
“Security Agreement”), pursuant to which the Pledgee provides or will provide certain
financial accommodations to the Company and certain subsidiaries of the Company.



In order to induce the Pledgee to provide or continue to provide the financial accommodations
described in the Security Agreement, each Pledgor has agreed to pledge and grant a security
interest in the collateral described herein to the Pledgee on the terms and conditions set forth
herein.



NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration
the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:



1. Defined Terms. All capitalized terms used herein which are not defined shall have
the meanings given to them in the Security Agreement.



2. Pledge and Grant of Security Interest. To secure the full and punctual payment
and performance of (the following clauses (a) and (b), collectively, the “Obligations”)
(a) the obligations under the Security Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements (other than the
Registration Rights Agreement or Warrant) referred to in the Security Agreement (the Security
Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, as each may be amended, restated, modified and/or
supplemented from time to time, collectively, the “Documents”) and (b) all other
obligations and liabilities of each Pledgor to the Pledgee whether now existing or hereafter
arising, direct or indirect, liquidated or unliquidated, absolute or contingent, due or not due
and whether under, pursuant to or evidenced by a note, agreement, guaranty, instrument or
otherwise (in each case, irrespective of the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability
of such Obligations, or of any instrument evidencing any of the Obligations or of any collateral
therefor or of the existence or extent of such collateral, and irrespective of the allowability,
allowance or disallowance of any or all of such in any case commenced by or against any Pledgor
under Title 11, United States Code, including, without limitation, obligations of each Pledgor for
post-petition interest, fees, costs and charges that would have accrued or been added to the
Obligations but for the commencement of such case), each Pledgor hereby pledges, assigns,
hypothecates, transfers and grants a security interest to Pledgee in all of the following (the
“Collateral”):


 


 









 





(a) the shares of stock or other equity interests set forth on Schedule A annexed
hereto and expressly made a part hereof (together with any additional shares of stock or other
equity interests acquired by any Pledgor, the “Pledged Stock”), the certificates
representing the Pledged Stock and all dividends, cash, instruments and other property or proceeds
from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for
any or all of the Pledged Stock;



(b) all additional shares of stock or other equity interests of any issuer (each, an
“Issuer”) of the Pledged Stock from time to time acquired by any Pledgor in any manner,
including, without limitation, stock dividends or a distribution in connection with any increase or
reduction of capital, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale of assets, combination of
shares, stock split, spin-off or split-off (which shares shall be deemed to be part of the
Collateral), and the certificates representing such additional shares, and all dividends, cash,
instruments and other property or proceeds from time to time received, receivable or otherwise
distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of such shares; and



(c) all options and rights, whether as an addition to, in substitution of or in exchange for
any shares of any Pledged Stock and all dividends, cash, instruments and other property or proceeds
from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for
any or all such options and rights.



3. Delivery of Collateral. All certificates representing or evidencing the Pledged
Stock shall be delivered to and held by or on behalf of Pledgee pursuant hereto and shall be
accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignments in blank, all in form and
substance satisfactory to Pledgee. Each Pledgor hereby authorizes the Issuer upon demand by the
Pledgee to deliver any certificates, instruments or other distributions issued in connection with
the Collateral directly to the Pledgee, in each case to be held by the Pledgee, subject to the
terms hereof. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined
below), the Pledgee shall have the right, during such time in its discretion and without notice to
the Pledgor, to transfer to or to register in the name of the Pledgee or any of its nominees any
or all of the Pledged Stock. In addition, the Pledgee shall have the right at such time to
exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Pledged Stock for certificates or
instruments of smaller or larger denominations.



4. Representations and Warranties of each Pledgor. Each Pledgor jointly and
severally represents and warrants to the Pledgee that except as set forth in the Companies’
Disclosure Schedules attached to the Security Agreement or in the Exchange Act Filings with
respect to those representations and warranties set forth below that have parallel representations
and warranties set forth in the Security Agreement which permit exceptions as set forth in the

governmental rule or regulation applicable to any Pledgor;


 


2









 





(b) this Agreement constitutes the legal, valid, and binding obligation of each Pledgor
enforceable against each Pledgor in accordance with its terms, except



i. as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws
of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights; and



ii. general principles of equity that restrict the availability of equitable or legal
remedies.



(c) (i) all Pledged Stock owned by each Pledgor is set forth on Schedule A hereto and

(d) all of the shares of the Pledged Stock have been duly authorized, validly issued and are
fully paid and nonassessable;



(e) no consent or approval of any person, corporation, governmental body, regulatory authority

Agreement, (ii) the exercise by the Pledgee of any rights with respect to the Collateral or (iii)
the pledge and assignment of, and the grant of a security interest in, the Collateral hereunder;



(f) there are no pending or, to each Pledgor’s knowledge, threatened actions or proceedings
before any court, judicial body, administrative agency or arbitrator which would have, or could
reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect

pledge and assign the Collateral to the Pledgee in accordance with the terms of this Agreement;



(h) each Pledgor owns each item of the Collateral and, except for the pledge and security
interest granted to Pledgee hereunder, the Collateral shall be, immediately following the closing
of the transactions contemplated by the Documents, free and clear of any other security interest,
mortgage, pledge, claim, lien, charge, hypothecation, assignment, offset or encumbrance whatsoever
(collectively, “Liens”), , other than:



i. those resulting from taxes which have not yet become delinquent;



ii. minor liens and encumbrances which do not materially detract from the value of the
property subject thereto or materially impair the operations of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, so long as in each such case, such liens and encumbrances have no effect on the lien
priority of the Pledgee in such property; and



iii. those that have otherwise arisen in the ordinary course of business, so long as they have
no effect on the lien priority of the Pledgee therein;


 


3









 





(i) there are no restrictions on transfer of the Pledged Stock contained in the certificate of
incorporation or by-laws (or equivalent organizational documents) of the Issuer or otherwise which
have not otherwise been enforceably and legally waived by the necessary parties;



(j) none of the Pledged Stock has been issued or transferred in violation of the securities
registration, securities disclosure or similar laws of any jurisdiction to which such issuance or

this Agreement; and



(l) The Pledged Stock constitutes one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding
shares of capital stock of each Issuer.



5. Covenants. Each Pledgor jointly and severally covenants that, until the
Obligations shall be indefeasibly satisfied in full:



(a) No Pledgor will sell, assign, transfer, convey, or otherwise dispose of its rights in or
to the Collateral or any interest therein; nor will any Pledgor create, incur or permit to exist
any Lien whatsoever with respect to any of the Collateral or the proceeds thereof other than that
created hereby.



(b) Each Pledgor will, at its expense, defend Pledgee’s right, title and security interest in
and to the Collateral against the claims of any other party.



(c) Each Pledgor shall at any time, and from time to time, upon the written request of
Pledgee, execute and deliver such further documents and do such further acts and things as Pledgee
may reasonably request in order to effectuate the purposes of this Agreement including, but without
limitation, delivering to Pledgee, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, irrevocable proxies
in respect of the Collateral in form satisfactory to Pledgee. Until receipt thereof, upon an Event
of Default that has occurred and is continuing beyond any applicable grace period, this Agreement
shall constitute Pledgor’s proxy to Pledgee or its nominee to vote all shares of Collateral then
registered in each Pledgor’s name.



(d) No Pledgor will consent to or approve the issuance of (i) any additional shares of any
class of capital stock or other equity interests of the Issuer; or (ii) any securities convertible
either voluntarily by the holder thereof or automatically upon the occurrence or nonoccurrence of
any event or condition into, or any securities exchangeable for, any such shares, unless, in either
case, such shares are pledged as Collateral pursuant to this Agreement.



(e) Each Pledgor agrees to execute and deliver to each Issuer that is a limited liability
company or a limited partnership a control acknowledgment (“Control Acknowledgement”) substantially
in the form of Exhibit A hereto. Each Pledgor shall cause each such Issuer to acknowledge in
writing its receipt and acceptance thereof. Such Control
Acknowledgement shall instruct such Issuer to follow instructions from Pledgee without any
Pledgor’s consultation or consent.

6. Voting Rights and Dividends. So long as no Event of Default occurs and remains
continuing:



(a) i. Each Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consensual
rights pertaining to the Collateral, or any part thereof, for any purpose not inconsistent with the
terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that such Pledgor shall not exercise,
or shall refrain from exercising, any such right if it would result in an Event of Default.



ii. Any and all dividends or distributions declared in respect of the Collateral shall be
applied toward payment of the Note in accordance with Section 5(d) hereof.



(b) In addition to the Pledgee’s rights and remedies set forth in Section 8 hereof, in case an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, beyond any applicable cure period, the
Pledgee shall (i) be entitled to vote the Collateral, (ii) be entitled to give consents, waivers
and ratifications in respect of the Collateral (each Pledgor hereby irrevocably constituting and
appointing the Pledgee, with full power of substitution, the proxy and attorney-in-fact of each
Pledgor for such purposes) and (iii) be entitled to collect and receive for its own use cash
dividends paid on the Collateral. Unless and until there shall have occurred and be continuing an
Event of Default, each Pledgor shall be permitted to exercise or refrain from exercising any voting
rights or other powers; provided that, in each case, no vote shall be cast or any
consent, waiver or ratification given or any action taken or omitted to be taken if, in the
reasonable judgment of the Pledgee, such action would have a material adverse effect on the value
of the Collateral or any part thereof; and, provided, further, that each Pledgor
shall give at least five (5) days’ written notice of the manner in which such Pledgor intends to
exercise, or the reasons for refraining from exercising, any voting rights or other powers other
than with respect to any election of directors and voting with respect to any incidental matters.
Following the occurrence of an Event of Default, all rights of each Pledgor to vote and to give
consents, waivers and ratifications shall cease and all dividends and all other distributions in
respect of any of the Collateral, shall be delivered to the Pledgee to hold as Collateral and
shall, if received by any Pledgor, be received in trust for the benefit of the Pledgee, be
segregated from the other property or funds of any other Pledgor, and be forthwith delivered to the
Pledgee as Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement).



7. Event of Default. An “Event of Default” under this Agreement shall occur upon the
happening of any of the following events:



(a) An “Event of Default” under any Document shall have occurred and be continuing beyond any
applicable cure period;



(b) Any representation or warranty of any Pledgor made herein, in the Security Agreement or
the Note shall be false or misleading in any material respect;



(c) Any portion of the Collateral is subjected to a material post-judgment levy of execution,
attachment, distraint or other judicial process or any portion of the Collateral is the
subject of a claim (other than by the Pledgee) of a Lien or other right or interest in or to
the Collateral and such levy or claim shall not be cured, disputed or stayed within a period of
thirty (30) business days after the occurrence thereof; or


 


5









 





(d) Any Pledgor shall (i) apply for, consent to, or suffer to exist the appointment of, or the
taking of possession by, a receiver, custodian, trustee, liquidator or other fiduciary of itself or
of all or a substantial part of its property, (ii) make a general assignment for the benefit of
creditors, (iii) commence a voluntary case under any state or federal bankruptcy laws (as now or
hereafter in effect), (iv) be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, (v) file a petition seeking to
take advantage of any other law providing for the relief of debtors, (vi) acquiesce to, or fail to
have dismissed, within thirty (30) days, any petition filed against it in any involuntary case
under such bankruptcy laws, or (vii) take any action for the purpose of effecting any of the
foregoing.



8. Remedies. In case an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, the
Pledgee may:



(a) Transfer any or all of the Collateral into its name, or into the name of its nominee or
nominees;



(b) Exercise all corporate rights with respect to the Collateral including, without
limitation, all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges or
options pertaining to any shares of the Collateral as if it were the absolute owner thereof,
including, but without limitation, the right to exchange, at its discretion, any or all of the
Collateral upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other readjustment
of the Issuer thereof, or upon the exercise by the Issuer of any right, privilege or option
pertaining to any of the Collateral, and, in connection therewith, to deposit and deliver any and
all of the Collateral with any committee, depository, transfer agent, registrar or other designated
agent upon such terms and conditions as it may determine, all without liability except to account
for property actually received by it; and



(c) Subject to any requirement of applicable law, sell, assign and deliver the whole or, from
time to time, any part of the Collateral at the time held by the Pledgee, at any private sale or at
public auction, with or without demand, advertisement or notice of the time or place of sale or
adjournment thereof or otherwise (all of which are hereby waived, except such notice as is required
by applicable law and cannot be waived), for cash or credit or for other property for immediate or
future delivery, and for such price or prices and on such terms as the Pledgee in its sole
discretion may determine, or as may be required by applicable law.



Each Pledgor hereby waives and releases any and all right or equity of redemption, whether
before or after sale hereunder. At any such sale, unless prohibited by applicable law, the Pledgee
may bid for and purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold free from any such right
or equity of redemption. All moneys received by the Pledgee hereunder, whether upon sale of the
Collateral or any part thereof or otherwise, shall be held by the Pledgee and applied by it as
provided in Section 10 hereof. No failure or delay on the part of the Pledgee in exercising any
rights hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any such rights nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any such rights preclude any other or future exercise



 


6









 






thereof or the exercise of any other rights hereunder. The Pledgee shall have no duty as to
the collection or protection of the Collateral or any income thereon nor any duty as to
preservation of any rights pertaining thereto, except to apply the funds in accordance with the
requirements of Section 10 hereof. The Pledgee may exercise its rights with respect to property
held hereunder without resort to other security for or sources of reimbursement for the
Obligations. In addition to the foregoing, Pledgee shall have all of the rights, remedies and
privileges of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code of New York (the “UCC”) regardless
of the jurisdiction in which enforcement hereof is sought.



9. Private Sale. Each Pledgor recognizes that the Pledgee may be unable to effect
(or to do so only after delay which would adversely affect the value that might be realized from
the Collateral) a public sale of all or part of the Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions
contained in the Securities Act, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales to a
restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such
Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale
thereof. Each Pledgor agrees that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less
favorable to the seller than if sold at public sales and that such private sales shall be deemed
to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. Each Pledgor agrees that the Pledgee has
no obligation to delay sale of any Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the
Issuer to register the Collateral for public sale under the Securities Act.



10. Proceeds of Sale. The proceeds of any collection, recovery, receipt,
appropriation, realization or sale of the Collateral shall be applied by the Pledgee as follows:



(a) First, to the payment of all costs, reasonable expenses and charges of the Pledgee and to
the reimbursement of the Pledgee for the prior payment of such costs, reasonable expenses and
charges incurred in connection with the care and safekeeping of the Collateral (including, without
limitation, the reasonable expenses of any sale or any other disposition of any of the Collateral),
attorneys’ fees and reasonable expenses, court costs, any other fees or expenses incurred or
expenditures or advances made by Pledgee in the protection, enforcement or exercise of its rights,
powers or remedies hereunder;



(b) Second, to the payment of the Obligations, in whole or in part, in such order as the
Pledgee may elect, whether or not such Obligations is then due;



(c) Third, to such persons, firms, corporations or other entities as required by applicable
law including, without limitation, Section 9-615(a)(3) of the UCC; and



(d) Fourth, to the extent of any surplus to the Pledgors or as a court of competent
jurisdiction may direct.



In the event that the proceeds of any collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation,
realization or sale are insufficient to satisfy the Obligations, each Pledgor shall be jointly and
severally liable for the deficiency plus the costs and fees of any attorneys employed by Pledgee to
collect such deficiency.


 


7









 





11. Waiver of Marshaling. Each Pledgor hereby waives any right to compel any
marshaling of any of the Collateral.



12. No Waiver. Any and all of the Pledgee’s rights with respect to the Liens granted
under this Agreement shall continue unimpaired, and Pledgor shall be and remain obligated in
accordance with the terms hereof, notwithstanding (a) the bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization
of any Pledgor, (b) the release or substitution of any item of the Collateral at any time, or of
any rights or interests therein, or (c) any delay, extension of time, renewal, compromise or other
indulgence granted by the Pledgee in reference to any of the Obligations. Each Pledgor hereby
waives all notice of any such delay, extension, release, substitution, renewal, compromise or
other indulgence, and hereby consents to be bound hereby as fully and effectively as if such
Pledgor had expressly agreed thereto in advance. No delay or extension of time by the Pledgee in
exercising any power of sale, option or other right or remedy hereunder, and no failure by the
Pledgee to give notice or make demand, shall constitute a waiver thereof, or limit, impair or
prejudice the Pledgee’s right to take any action against any Pledgor or to exercise any other
power of sale, option or any other right or remedy.



13. Expenses. The Collateral shall secure, and each Pledgor shall pay to Pledgee on
demand, from time to time, all reasonable costs and expenses, (including but not limited to,
reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, taxes, and all transfer, recording, filing and other
charges) of, or incidental to, the custody, care, transfer, administration of the Collateral or
any other collateral, or in any way relating to the enforcement, protection or preservation of the
rights or remedies of the Pledgee under this Agreement or with respect to any of the Obligations.



14. The Pledgee Appointed Attorney-In-Fact and Performance by the Pledgee. Upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default, each Pledgor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the
Pledgee as such Pledgor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, to
execute, acknowledge and deliver any instruments and to do in such Pledgor’s name, place and
stead, all such acts, things and deeds for and on behalf of and in the name of such Pledgor, which
such Pledgor could or might do or which the Pledgee may deem necessary, desirable or convenient to
accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, to execute such
instruments of assignment or transfer or orders and to register, convey or otherwise transfer
title to the Collateral into the Pledgee’s name. Each Pledgor hereby ratifies and confirms all
that said attorney-in-fact may so do and hereby declares this power of attorney to be coupled with
an interest and irrevocable. If any Pledgor fails to perform any agreement herein contained, the
Pledgee upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, may itself perform
or cause performance thereof, and any costs and expenses of the Pledgee incurred in connection
therewith shall be paid by the Pledgors as provided in Section 10 hereof.



15. Waivers. THE PARTIES HERETO DESIRES THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE
APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE
JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR
OTHERWISE BETWEEN PLEDGEE, AND/OR ANY COMPANY ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH,
RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED BETWEEN THEN IN CONNECTION WITH THIS
AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO.


 


8









 





Recapture. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the Pledgee
receives any payment or payments on account of the Obligations, which payment or payments or any
part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside
and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver, or any other party under the United States
Bankruptcy Code, as amended, or any other federal or state bankruptcy, reorganization, moratorium
or insolvency law relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, common
law or equitable doctrine, then to the extent of any sum not finally retained by the Pledgee, each
Pledgor’s obligations to the Pledgee shall be reinstated and this Agreement shall remain in full
force and effect (or be reinstated) until payment shall have been made to Pledgee, which payment
shall be due on demand. 



16. Captions. All captions in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of
reference only and shall not constitute part of this Agreement for any other purpose.

otherwise, shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the party sought to be charged, and
