PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

 

THIS PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (this “Pledge and Security Agreement”) is made and entered into this 1st day of December, 2014, by and between Digi Outdoor Media, Inc., a Nevada Corporation (“Debtor” or the “Company”), Donald E. MacCord, Jr., Shannon D. Doyle, and Dale Rasmussen (individually and collectively referred to as the “Digi Founders”),  Rapture Holdings LLC, a Washington Limited Liability Company (“Rapture” or the "Secured Party"), and Fifth Avenue Law Group, PLLC (“Pledgeholder”).

 

WHEREAS, Rapture intends to make a loan to Debtor in the principal amount of up to Nine Hundred Thousand Dollars (USD $900,000.00) pursuant to the terms of a Bridge Loan Agreement dated December 1, 2014 (the “Bridge Loan Agreement”) executed by Borrower; and

 

WHEREAS, in order to provide security for the due performance by Borrower of its obligations under the Bridge Loan Agreement (the “Obligations”), the Debtor and the Digi Founders have agreed to enter into this Pledge and Security Agreement to provide Rapture a security interest in certain assets of the Debtor, and a security interest in, and pledge of, One Million Eight Hundred Thousand (1,800,000) common shares of the Debtor owned by the Digi Founders as set forth herein.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1. Pledge of Stock; Grant of Security Interest.

(a)    The Digi Founders (individually and collectively) hereby pledge and assign, and shall deliver to the Pledgeholder for the benefit of Rapture stock certificates for an aggregate of One Million Eight Hundred Thousand (1,800,000) common shares of the Debtor, duly endorsed in blank or with a duly executed stock power attached.  Specifically, it is agreed that (i) Donald E. MacCord, Jr. shall pledge and assign, and deliver to the Pledgeholder for the benefit of Rapture a stock certificate for Nine Hundred Thousand (900,000) common shares of the Debtor; (ii) Shannon Doyle shall pledge and assign, and deliver to the Pledgeholder for the benefit of Rapture a stock certificate for Four Hundred Twenty-Six Thousand Three Hundred Sixteen (426,316) common shares of the Debtor; and (iii) Dale Rasmussen shall pledge and assign, and deliver to the Pledgeholder for the benefit of Rapture a stock certificate for Four Hundred Seventy-Three Thousand Six Hundred Eighty-Four (473,684) common shares of the Debtor.  The shares pledged hereunder shall be referred to hereafter (individually or collectively, as the context requires) as the “Shares”.

 

(b)    In addition, each of the Digi Founders hereby grants a first priority security interest in the Shares (and the portion thereof pledged and assigned by each such Founder hereunder), and authorizes Rapture to file UCC financing statements with respect to said security interest in the Shares.  The Digi Founders (individually and collectively) and the Debtor hereby irrevocably authorize and direct the Pledgeholder, on receipt of a copy of this Pledge and Security Agreement, to hold said Shares, and all security entitlements arising from them on behalf of Rapture, and subject to the instruction and control of Rapture, until Rapture advises the Pledgeholder in writing that Rapture has released its security interest in the Shares.

 

  

  

  

 

(c)    In addition, in the event that the Shares are insufficient to secure the principal and interest owed pursuant to the Bridge Loan Agreement and any associated Promissory Notes  (for example, because the pledges Shares, in the aggregate, trade at any time for less than such principal and interest owed thereunder), the Debtor covenants and agrees to grant a first priority security interest in such additional security as Lender reasonably requests, with such additional Debtor Collateral (to be set forth in an Addendum hereto), and authorizes Rapture to file UCC financing statements with respect to said security interest.

 

2.           Right to Vote Shares.  During the time the Shares are in the custody and possession of the Pledgeholder, the Digi Founders (individually) shall be entitled to vote their respective Shares for all purposes.

 

3.           Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Digi Founders.  The Digi Founders (individually and collectively) represent and warrant to the Secured Party/Rapture as follows:

 

(a)    Each of the Digi Founders (individually) have full and legal authority to pledge their respective portion of the Shares hereunder, that the Shares have been duly issued, and title to the Shares is free and clear of any and all liens, claims or other encumbrances; and

 

(b)    The Digi Founders (individually and collectively) shall execute and deliver from time to time any endorsements, assignments, financing statements, and other writings deemed necessary or appropriate by Rapture to perfect, maintain, and protect Rapture’s security interest and first lien priority in the Shares.

 

4.           Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Company.  The Company represents and warrants to the Secured Party/Rapture as follows:

 

(a)    The Company has or will have full and legal authority to grant a first priority security interest in the Debtor Collateral set forth in an Addendum hereto (if applicable in accordance with Section 1(c)); and

 

(b)    The Company shall execute and deliver from time to time any endorsements, assignments, financing statements, and other writings deemed necessary or appropriate by Rapture to perfect, maintain, and protect Rapture’s security interest and first lien priority in the Debtor Collateral set forth in an Addendum hereto (if applicable in accordance with Section 1(c)).

 

5.           Authorized Action by Secured Party; Proxy. The Company and the Digi Founders (and each of them, individually) irrevocably appoint the Secured Party as their attorney-in-fact, and grant the Secured Party a proxy to do (but the Secured Party shall not be obligated to do so), after and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in Section 6), any act that the Company and/or the Digi Founders (individually or collectively) are obligated by this Pledge and Security Agreement to do, and to exercise the rights and powers that the Digi Founders (individually or collectively) might exercise with respect to the Shares, and to exercise the rights and powers that Company might exercise with respect to the Debtor Collateral.  With respect to voting the Shares, this Section 5 constitutes an irrevocable appointment of a proxy, coupled with an interest, which shall automatically become effective upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and shall continue until the Judgment is paid or otherwise satisfied in full.

6.           Default.  Any of the following events constitutes an event of default (“Event of Default”) under this Pledge and Security Agreement:

 

(a)    The Company’s failure to pay or otherwise satisfy the full amounts when due under the Bridge Loan Agreement, or any Promissory Note associated with the Bridge Loan Agreement;

 

(b)           The Company’s breach of or the failure to perform any of the terms of this Pledge and Security Agreement, including any breach of the representations, warranties or covenants contained in Section 4;

 

(c)           The Digi Founder’s breach of or the failure to perform any of the terms of this Pledge and Security Agreement, including any breach of the representations, warranties or covenants contained in Section 3;

 

(d)           Any other action taken by the Company that adversely affects the ability of Rapture to exercise its rights under this Pledge and Security Agreement.

 

7.           Remedies on Default.  On the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Secured Party may, in the Secured Party’s sole discretion, with written notice to the Digi Founders, Company and the Pledgeholder:

 

(a)           Register in the Secured Party’s name any or all of the Shares;

 

(b)           Exercise the Secured Party’s proxy rights with respect to all or any portion of the Shares, in which event the Company agrees to promptly deliver to the Secured Party further evidence of the grant of the proxy in any form requested by the Secured Party; and

(d)           Take possession of, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of the Debtor Collateral set forth in an Addendum hereto (if applicable in accordance with Section 1(c)).

The Secured Party may, in the Secured Party’s sole discretion, exercise any or all of the foregoing remedies.  Accordingly, Secured Party is not be required to exercise remedies proportionally or in any other manner with respect to such remedies, and may exercise remedies with respect to any of the Shares pledged hereunder, regardless of the ownership thereof or whether remedies are also exercised with respect to any other Shares pledged hereunder.

8.           Notice and Cure.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 6 of this Pledge and Security Agreement, Rapture shall give written notice of such default to the Digi Founders, the Company, and the Pledgeholder.  The Digi Founders and the Company shall have a period of ten (10) days following receipt of such written notice to cure the default.  If the Digi Founders and the Company shall fail to cure the default within said ten-day period, the Digi Founders shall be deemed to have irrevocably transferred the pledged Shares to Rapture, and the Company shall be deemed to have irrevocably transferred the Debtor Collateral set forth in an Addendum hereto to Rapture (if applicable in accordance with Section 1(c)).

MacCord, Jr., whose address is 35332 SE Center Street, Snoqualmie, WA  98065, Digi Holdings LLC, a Nevada Limited Liability Company whose address is 35332 SE Center Street, Snoqualmie, WA  98065, and Digi Outdoor LLC, a Nevada Limited Liability Company whose address is 35332 SE Center Street, Snoqualmie, WA  98065, (hereinafter, collectively, the “Digi Guarantors” or the “Guarantors”), to Rapture Holdings LLC, a Washington Limited Liability Company (the “Lender”), whose address is c/o Fifth Avenue Law Group PLLC, 701 Fifth Avenue, Suite 2800, Seattle, WA 98104.

 

1.           Guaranty Obligation.  For good and valuable consideration, the Guarantors hereby agree to unconditionally guarantee any and all amounts due from Digi Outdoor Media, Inc. (the “Borrower”), a Nevada Corporation, under that certain Bridge Loan Agreement of even date herewith (the “Bridge Loan Agreement”), and all associated Promissory Note(s) (the “Notes”) executed by Borrower in favor of Lender (whether of even date herewith, or thereafter, in accordance with the Bridge Loan Agreement).  It is specifically intended that this Guaranty shall apply with respect to the First Loan Amount of Six Hundred Thousand and no/100 U.S. Dollars (USD $600,000.00), evidenced by a promissory note of even date herewith, as well as any Notes executed hereafter by Borrower, as contemplated by the Bridge Loan Agreement, providing for loans to Borrower in the principal amount of up to Nine Hundred Thousand and no/100 U.S. Dollars (USD $900,000.00) (the “Aggregate Loan Amount”).  If Borrower should, for any reason whatsoever, fail to fully, timely and completely pay any amounts due under the Note, Guarantors promise to pay each and every such obligation, as and when such obligation comes due.

2.           Independent Obligation; Joint and Several Liability.  This Guaranty is an independent obligation of Guarantors separate and distinct from the obligations of Borrower, and a separate action may be brought and prosecuted against Guarantors whether or not any action is brought or prosecuted against Borrower or whether Borrower has been joined in any such action. In addition, Guarantors’ obligations hereunder shall be joint and several, such that Lender may pursue complete satisfaction from any Guarantor hereunder.

3.           Waiver of Defenses.  Guarantors hereby:

(a)           Waive notice of any payments made by Borrower with respect to the Note or any extension, renewal or modification thereof;

(b)           Waive, with respect to any obligations of Borrower under the Note, demand, presentment, notice of dishonor and protest;

(c)           Agree that Lender shall not be required or bound to exhaust Lender’s recourse or take any action against Borrower before proceeding against Guarantors under this Guaranty;

 

  

  

  

(d)           Agree that Lender, without affecting the liability of Guarantors under this Guaranty, may with or without notice or consideration: (i) release any other person or entity liable under the Note; and (ii) extend the maturity date, modify the terms, grant any indulgence or forbearance, or postpone the time of payment or performance of the Note;

(e)           Waive, with respect to the obligations under the Note, any defense based upon any change in the name, location, composition or structure of, or any other change in the identity or legal status of Borrower; and

(f)           Represent and warrant that they have received or will receive a material, direct or indirect benefit from entering into this Guaranty.

4.           General Provisions.

(a)           Severability. Any provision of this Guaranty that is deemed invalid or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining provisions of this Guaranty.  Furthermore, in lieu of each such invalid or unenforceable provision, there shall be added automatically as a part of this Guaranty a provision as similar in terms to such invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be valid and enforceable.

(b)           Attorneys' Fees.  If any suit or action arising out of or related to this Guaranty is brought by any party, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover the costs and fees (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by such party in such suit or action, including any post-trial or appellate proceeding.

(c)           Successors.  This Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of Lender's successors and assigns.

(d)           Governing Law.  The parties intend that this Guaranty shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington.
