           B.           Borrower's obligations under the Initial Loan Agreement are secured by liens on and security interests in all of Borrower's assets pursuant to a Security Agreement dated September 9, 2010 (the "Initial Security Agreement").

           C.           In exchange for its receipt of a portion of the proceeds of advances made under the Initial Loan Agreement, Guarantor guaranteed the obligations of Borrower under the Initial Loan Agreement.

           D.           Borrower requires an additional $2,600,000 in funding for working capital purposes (the "Additional Advances"), and the Initial Lender has agreed that Borrower may obtain such funding from the Lenders (including without limitation the Initial Lender), subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and that certain Secured Promissory Note Purchase Agreement dated the date hereof (the "Purchase Agreement").

E.           Borrower, Guarantor and the Lenders are entering into this Agreement in order to (i) amend the terms of the Initial Loan Agreement, and (ii) set forth the terms upon which the Initial Advances shall be made to the Borrower and the Guarantor.

  

  

  

AGREEMENTS

           NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

SECTION 1

AMOUNT AND TERMS OF LOAN

           1.1           Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders agree to loan to the Borrower, and the Borrower agrees to borrow from Lenders, funds in an aggregated principal amount of up to Five Million Two Hundred Thousand US Dollars ($5,286,306.25) (the "Loan"), in installments of One Hundred Thousand Dollars or greater (each a "Loan Disbursement").

           1.2           The Borrower acknowledges receipt of Loan Disbursements in the aggregate amount of Two Million Six Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,600,000.00) prior to the date hereof (collectively, the “Initial Disbursement”).  The Borrower may submit to Borrower written requests for additional Loan Disbursements from time after the date hereof, but in no event later than March 1, 2011 (each, a “Loan Disbursement Request”).  Each such Loan Disbursement Request is subject to the Lenders' approval, and the maximum amount advanced by the Lenders shall not exceed the total amount of the Loan.  The Borrower may decline to submit any further Loan Disbursement Requests for any reason, in its sole and absolute discretion.  The Lenders may decline to approve any or all such Loan Disbursements Requests for any reason, in their sole and absolute discretion.

           1.3           Loan Disbursements  shall be made within five (5) business days following Lenders' approval of the applicable Loan Disbursement Request.  Interest shall accrue on each Loan Disbursement from the date of receipt of funds (each a "Disbursement Date") by the Borrower.

           1.4           The proceeds of the Loan shall be used by the Borrower to finance the general working capital requirements of the Borrower.

1.5           The obligations of Borrower with respect to the Loan shall be guaranteed by Guarantor, and shall be secured by liens and security interests on all of the assets of the Guarantor (including without limitation all intellectual property interests of Guarantor), pursuant to the terms of a Guarantee and a Debenture by and between the Lenders and Guarantor (together, the “Guaranty Documents”). Such Guarantee shall remain in effect until the earlier of such time as (i) all obligations of Borrower with respect to the Loan have been satisfied and (ii) the right to make Loan Disbursement Requests is waived or terminated, or the Guarantor first reports positive accumulated earnings and profits within the meaning of Section 956 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Guaranty Term”).

  

  

  

           1.6           Interest on the Loan shall be payable as set forth in the applicable Note (as defined below).  Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year, for the actual number of days elapsed.  Default interest shall be charged in accordance with the terms of the applicable Note.

           1.7           The principal balance of the Loan shall be payable as set forth in the applicable Note.

           1.8           As evidence of the Borrower’s obligations under the Loan, upon receipt of each Loan Disbursement, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Lender(s) making such Loan Disbursement a Secured Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note”) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, dated as of the Disbursement Date, and with a principal amount of the Loan Disbursement.

1.9           The Notes issued to Initial Lender  in connection with the Initial Disbursement (the "Initial Notes") shall be exchanged by Initial Lender for an Amended and Restated Note, in the aggregate principal amount of the Initial Disbursement, plus all interest accrued thereon and unpaid as of the date hereof (the "Amended and Restated Note"). The terms of the Amended and Restated Note shall be as set forth in this Agreement.

1.10           Simultaneous with the making of a Loan Disbursement and its receipt of a Note in connection therewith, each Lender shall execute counterpart signature pages to this Agreement, and shall become a party to, and bound by, this Agreement to the same extent as if such Lender had been a Lender as of the date of this Agreement.  In connection with each such Loan Disbursement, the Schedule of Lenders attached to this Agreement as Exhibit A will be amended to add to Exhibit A the names of the Lender(s) making the Loan Disbursement as a "Lender" hereunder and to set forth the principal amount of each Note issued to such Lender(s). The Borrower will promptly furnish to each Lender upon request a copy of Exhibit A as amended to the date of such request.

1.11           As additional consideration paid to the Lenders in connection with the Loan, and notwithstanding any partial or full payment by Borrower of the principal or interest due on the Notes or the occurrence of the Maturity Date set forth in the Notes, and in addition to any and all other obligations of Borrower hereunder:

  

  

  

	
  

	
(a)

	
Borrower will pay to each Lender an amount (the “Revenue Incentive Payment”) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) such Lender's Pro Rata Interest (as defined below), times (ii) an amount (the “Revenue Incentive Payment”) equal to five percent (5%) of the Net Sales Revenue received by the Borrower (or any Borrower Affiliate) from, arising out of or in connection with the sale, licensing, other distribution or any other commercialization, including without limitation the sale of "beta" versions (collectively, a “Sale”) of Borrower's Facemail Product (as defined below) during the period (the “Measuring Period”) commencing on the first day of commercial availability of the Facemail Product and ending at the close of the calendar quarter during which the 5th anniversary of such commercial availability occurred.  For the avoidance of doubt: (i) Revenue Incentive Payments shall be due with respect to Net Sales Revenue received by the Borrower (or a Borrower Affiliate) during and after the Measuring Period provided such Net Sales Revenue arose from the Sale of the Facemail Product during the Measuring Period; (ii) the Facemail Product will be commercially available upon (and not before) the first Sale for revenue to a non-Affiliate; and (iii) a Sale shall include the sale, transfer, licensing or other disposition of the Facemail Product in its entirety, in a single transaction or a series of transactions.

 

	
  

	
(b)

	
Net Sales Revenue will be reported quarterly within 30 days of the close of each calendar quarter (each, a “Reporting Period”) during the Measuring Period. Within thirty (30) days after the end of each Reporting Period, Borrower will provide to Agent either (i) a report reasonably detailing Net Sales Revenue for the preceding Reporting Period when there has been any Net Sales Revenue with respect to such Reporting Period the calculation of the Revenue Incentive Payment, and/or (ii) a letter signed by a Borrower officer certifying that there has been no Net Sales Revenue when there has been no Net Sales Revenue with respect to such Reporting Period. With each such report will be paid any required Revenue Incentive Payment. Borrower will keep accurate books of account containing all particulars that may reasonably be deemed necessary for the purpose of showing the Revenue Incentive Payments due to the Lenders hereunder.  Said books of account will be kept at Company’s principal place of business.  Not more than once during every twelve (12) month period during the Measurement Period and for so long as Net Sales Revenue are being generated, and upon the Agent's advance request of at least fifteen (15) days, Borrower will make said books and the supporting data available for inspection by Agent or its agents during normal business hours for the purpose of verifying Company’s receipt of Net Sales Revenue and calculations of Revenue Incentive Payments due under this Agreement.  Should such inspection lead to the discovery of a greater than five percent (5%) discrepancy in reporting to the Lenders' detriment, Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of Agent's agents who conducted the inspection plus an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the amount of such discrepancy.  Company will promptly pay to Agent for the benefit of the Lenders all amounts appropriately determined by any inspection to be due to Developer.

 

  

  

  

(c)            As used in this Section 1.11:

 

(i)           “Affiliate” shall mean a corporation, partnership, trust, limited liability company or other entity that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with Borrower.  For such purposes, “control” or “controlled by” and “under common control with” shall mean the possession of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of an entity, whether through the ownership of voting stock or partnership interest, by contract or otherwise.  In the case of a corporation, the direct or indirect ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of its outstanding voting shares shall in any event be deemed to confer control, it being understood that the direct or indirect ownership of a lesser percentage shall not necessarily preclude the existence of control.

 

(ii)           “Facemail Product” shall mean the technology to which Borrower has rights enabling the near real time animation of avatars and any product which is a derivative work thereof or substantially based thereon, or which includes the Facemail product as a component thereof, and irrespective of any change in the trade name or trademark under which it may be marketed from time to time, but excluding existing full service animation and future real-time applications.

(iii)           “Net Sales Revenue” shall mean (A) gross amounts actually received, less invoiced sales tax, shipping costs and credits or allowances for returns and customary trade discounts; (B) from a Sale made to either an end user or to an intermediary sales channels; and (C) arising from the Sale in any commercial channel or media, whether now existing or developed in the future. If the Facemail Product is Sold as a component of a bundle of products and/or services, the sales price of such bundle shall be reasonably allocated to the Facemail Product in order to determine Net Sales Revenue.

 

(iv)           “Pro Rata Interest” shall mean, for purposes of determining any Revenue Incentive Payment due hereunder, that portion, expressed as a percentage, determined by dividing the principal amount of each Note by the aggregate principal amount of all the Notes issued by the Borrower pursuant to the Loan Agreement on the final day of the Measuring Period to which such Revenue Incentive Payments relates.

 

  

  

  

           1.12           The Lenders need not enter payments of interest and principal upon the Notes but may maintain a record thereof on a separate ledger maintained by the Lenders.

           1.13           The Borrower may repay, in whole or in part, the principal amount of the Loan, but may not reborrow any such amounts repaid.

           1.14           The Notes are incorporated herein to the same extent as if it was set forth in full in this Agreement.

           1.15           All of the Borrower’s obligations to the Lenders, of every kind and description, including those arising under this Agreement, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising, regardless of how they arise or by what agreement or instrument they may be evidenced, including those arising under any other agreements, instruments or documents executed in conjunction herewith, or whether evidenced by an agreement or instrument, including obligations to perform acts and refrain from taking action, as well as obligations to repay the Loan, shall constitute the Borrower’s “Liabilities” to the Lenders, as the same may be modified, amended, replaced or extended from time to time.

The Borrower will maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement from the initial date of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement until 18 months after that date; provided, however, that, if at any time or from time to time after the date of effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the Borrower notifies the Lenders in writing of the existence of a Potential Material Event (as defined below), the Lenders shall not offer or sell any of the Conversion Shares, or engage in any other transaction involving or relating to the Conversion Shares, from the time of the giving of notice with respect to a Potential Material Event until the Borrower notifies the Lenders that such Potential Material Event either has been disclosed to the public or no longer constitutes a Potential Material Event; provided, further that, the Borrower may not suspend the right of the Lenders pursuant to this Section 3.15(a) for more than 60 days in the aggregate. “Potential Material Event” means the possession by the Borrower of material information regarding a potential transaction not ripe for disclosure in a registration statement, which shall be evidenced by determinations in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Borrower that disclosure of such information in the registration statement would be detrimental to the business and affairs of the Borrower.

 

  

  

  

	
  

	
(b)

	
The Borrower shall notify the Lenders at any time when a prospectus relating to the Registration Statement is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, upon discovery that, or upon the happening of any event as a result of which, the prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing. At the request of the Lenders, the Borrower shall also prepare, file and furnish to the Lenders a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such shares, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing. The Lenders agree not to offer or sell any Conversion Shares covered by the Registration Statement after receipt of such notification until the receipt of such supplement or amendment.

 

	
  

	
(c)

	
The Borrower may request the Lenders to furnish the Borrower such information with respect to the Lenders and any Lender's proposed distribution of the Conversion Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement as the Borrower may from time to time reasonably request in writing or as shall be required by law or by the SEC in connection therewith, and the Lenders agree to furnish the Borrower with such information.

 

	
  

	
(d)

	
The Borrower agrees to bear all SEC registration and filing fees, printing and mailing expenses, and fees and disbursements of counsel and accountants for the Borrower.

 

  

  

  

           3.16           The Borrower shall make such filings, and take such other actions, as are necessary to preserve the registration of its securities, and its good standing, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

           Until such time as the Loan has been repaid in full, without the prior written consent of Lenders or their duly appointed agent:

           4.1           The Borrower will not issue evidences of indebtedness or create, assume, become contingently liable for, or suffer to exist indebtedness for borrowed money secured by a senior collateral interest in the Collateral (other than indebtedness in existence as of the date hereof and interest or penalties accruing thereon); provided, however, that the Borrower may incur liabilities which are incurred or arise in the ordinary course of the Borrower’s business (other than liabilities incurred or arising with respect to money borrowed) and purchase money security interests in acquired assets as reflected on Exhibit C.

           4.2           The Borrower will not make any loans or advances to any individual, firm or corporation without the prior written consent of the Lenders, including, without limitation, its officers and employees; provided, however, that the Borrower may make advances to its employees and consultants, including its officers, with respect to expenses incurred by such employees and consultants, which expenses are reimbursable by the Borrower and directly related to the conduct of the Borrower’s business.

           4.3           The Borrower will not invest in or purchase any stock or securities of any individual, firm or corporation, provided, however, the Borrower may invest in direct obligations of the United States of America having a maturity of one year or less from the date of investment.

           4.4           The Borrower will not merge or consolidate or be merged or consolidated with or into any other corporation.

           4.5           The Borrower will not sell or dispose of any of its assets except for sales of inventory in the ordinary and usual course of its business; provided, however, that the Borrower may dispose of (or trade in) equipment which is no longer required for the conduct of the Borrower’s business so long as the Borrower receives therefor a sum (or credit) substantially equal to such equipment’s fair value; and provided further that Borrower may sell or license certain other assets that are not essential to the conduct of its anticipated business.

  

  

  

           4.6           The Borrower will not grant or suffer to exist any mortgage, pledge, title retention agreement, security interest, lien, charge or encumbrance with respect to any of its assets (other than Permitted Liens), tangible or intangible, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, or subject any of such assets to the prior payment of any indebtedness, or transfer in any manner any of such assets with the intent or purpose, directly or indirectly, of subjecting such assets to the payment of indebtedness.

           4.7           The Borrower will not engage in any business other than the business in which it is currently engaged or a business reasonably related thereto.

4.8           The Borrower will not change its state of organization or entity type without notifying the Lenders of such change, along with the new state of organization and organizational number (if any) or change in entity within three (3) days of such change.

4.9           The Borrower shall not enter into any transaction with any subsidiary or any other Affiliate (hereinafter defined) including, without limitation, the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of property, or the loaning, capitalization or giving of funds to any subsidiary or other such Affiliate, unless (i) such subsidiary or other Affiliate is engaged in a business substantially related to the business conducted by Borrower, and (ii) the transaction is in the ordinary course of and pursuant to the reasonable requirements of Borrower’s business and upon terms substantially the same and no less favorable to Borrower as it would obtain in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with any person not a subsidiary or Affiliate, and (iii) such transaction is not otherwise prohibited under this Agreement.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Affiliate” shall mean any person or entity (i) which directly or indirectly controls, or is controlled by or is under common control with the Borrower or a subsidiary, (ii) which directly or indirectly beneficially holds or owns five (5%) percent or more of any class of voting stock of the Borrower or any subsidiary, or (iii) five (5%) percent or more of the voting stock of which is directly or indirectly beneficially owned or held by the Borrower or a subsidiary.

SECTION 5

SECURITY

           5.1           The Lenders shall have and hold as security for the repayment of the Loans and all other Liabilities of the Borrower to the Lenders a security interest in substantially all of the Borrower’s business assets (the “Collateral”), and the Borrower will execute and deliver all customary instruments and documents required to establish, create and perfect the same (e.g. UUC financing statements or recordations of liens with the US patent & trademark office and similar agencies), including, without limitation, the Amended and Restated Security Agreement between Borrower and Lenders of even date herewith (together, the “Amended Security Agreement”).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon termination of the Guarantee Period, the Collateral shall immediately be deemed to exclude 35% of all equity interests of the Guarantor owned by the Borrower; and the parties shall cooperate in amending all aforementioned instruments, documents statements and recordations of liens to reflect such exclusion.

  

  

  

           5.2           Any and all deposits or other sums at any time credited by or due from the Lenders to the Borrower shall at all times constitute additional security for all obligations of the Borrower to the Lenders and may be set off against any such obligations at any time after demand or the occurrence of an Event of Default, as applicable, whether or not security held by the Lenders is deemed to be adequate.  Any and all instruments, documents, policies and certificates of insurance, securities, goods, accounts receivable, choses in action, chattel paper, cash, property and the proceeds thereof owned by the Borrower or in which the Borrower has an interest, which now or hereafter are at any time in possession or control of the Lenders or in transit by mail or carrier to or from the Lenders or in the possession of any third party acting in any of the Lenders' behalf, without regard to whether the Lenders received the same in pledge, for safekeeping, as agent for collection or transmission or otherwise or whether the Lender has conditionally released the same, shall constitute additional security for such obligations and may be applied at any time after demand or the occurrence of an Event of Default, as applicable, to such obligations, whether due or not.

SECTION 6

DEFAULT

           6.1           The occurrence of any of the following events (after the expiration of any applicable grace and/or cure periods) shall be an event of default hereunder (each an “Event of Default”):

(b)

	
The Borrower shall fail to observe or perform any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, the Note(s) or the Security Agreement (the “Transaction Documents”) and the expiration of ten (10) days from the Lenders' written notice of such failure, provided, however, in the event that the Borrower commences the cure within the 10-day period and diligently proceeds to cure, the cure period shall be extended for an additional period of time, not to exceed thirty (30) days in total, to allow the Borrower time to effect a cure.

  

  

  

	 	
(c)

	
Any warranty or representation set forth in the Transaction Documents proves to have been false in any material respect when made or furnished.

	 	
(d)

	
Any event which results in the acceleration of the maturity of the indebtedness and demand for payment of money borrowed of the Borrower, other than pursuant to Borrower’s existing obligations to ETV Capital and other obligations not in excess of $100,000.00 under any indenture, agreement, undertaking or otherwise.

	 	
(e)

	
Dissolution, termination of existence, or business failure of the Borrower or Guarantor.

	 	
(f)

	
Either the Borrower or Guarantor shall: (i) cease, be unable, or admit in writing its inability to pay its debts as they mature, or make a general assignment for the benefit of, or enter into any composition, trust mortgage or other arrangement with creditors; (ii) apply for, or consent (by admission of material allegations of a petition or otherwise) to the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator of the Borrower or of a substantial part of its assets, or authorize such application or consent, or proceedings seeking such appointment shall be commenced against the Borrower; or (iii) apply for, or consent (by admission of material allegations of a petition or otherwise) to the application of any bankruptcy, reorganization, readjustment of debt, insolvency, dissolution, liquidation or other similar law of any jurisdiction, or authorize such application or consent, or proceedings to such end shall be instituted against the Borrower, be approved as properly instituted or result in adjudication of bankruptcy or insolvency.

	
  

	
(g)

	
The entry of any judgment(s) against Borrower or Guarantor in excess of $100,000, which judgment(s) is not satisfied or appealed from (with execution or similar process stayed) within thirty (30) days of its entry.

           6.2           Upon demand or the occurrence of any Event of Default, all Liabilities of the Borrower to the Lenders shall, at the Lenders' option and without notice or demand, and notwithstanding any terms of payment in any note or other instrument evidencing such Liabilities, become immediately due and payable, and any obligation of the Lenders to consider making Loans pursuant to Section 1 shall terminate.

  

  

  

SECTION 7

AGREEMENTS AMONG THE LENDERS

7.2           If any Lender shall at any time receive any payment of principal, interest or other charge arising under a Note, or upon any other obligation of Borrower or Guarantor or any sums by virtue of counterclaim, offset, or other lien that may be exercised, or from any security, other than payments made on the same date to all Lenders, such Lender shall share such payment or payments ratably with the other Lenders as to maintain as near as possible the unpaid balance of the loans pro rata according to the Lenders' aggregate proportionate interests.

 

7.3           Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, as defined in Section 5, and if the Lenders proceed to exercise any rights with respect to the Collateral, the Lenders shall share the Collateral and the proceeds of such Collateral ratably, without priority of one over the other.

 

7.4           The Lenders agree that the Majority Lenders (hereinafter defined) may act together unanimously as the agent of all Lenders to execute and deliver in their names such instruments, documents, statements and amendments hereto as may be necessary or appropriate to (i) provide the approval or consent of the Lenders, (ii) give notices on behalf of the Lenders (including, without limitation, notice respecting the occurrence of an Event of Default), and (iii) make demand for payment of any amount which is due hereunder, and for which demand may be made by the Lenders.

 

 

7.5           Enforcement of the Lenders' rights hereunder shall be taken by Lenders holding a majority in interest of the principal amount of Notes outstanding acting together as the agent for all of the Lenders (the "Majority Lenders"). The action of such percentage taken in accordance with the preceding sentence, shall in each case bind all the Lenders. Each of the Lenders agrees that any Lender acting under Sections 7.4 and 7.5 shall not be liable for any acts taken in good faith in enforcing the rights of the Lenders hereunder. All costs (including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by any of the Lenders in connection with the enforcement of such Lender's rights hereunder or any other document evidencing and or securing the Loan, and any sums received from Borrower or Guarantor in reimbursement of same, shall be allocated among the Lenders in proportion to the principal and accrued interest then outstanding on any such date of payment to each Lender.

SECURED CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

$__________                                _______________ __, 2011

Santa Monica, California

IMAGE METRICS, INC., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), for value received, hereby promises to pay to the order of _____________ (the “Lender”), with an address of _________________________, or its assigns (the “Holder”), the principal amount of _______________ dollars ($________), and to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance hereof, all as hereafter further provided.  This Note is one of a series of Secured Convertible Promissory Notes containing substantially identical terms and conditions, issued pursuant to that certain Secured Promissory Note Purchase Agreement dated as of December 22, 2010 (the “Purchase Agreement”) by and among the Company and the other parties thereto.  Such Notes are referred to herein as the “Notes,” and the holders thereof are referred to herein as the “Holders.”

1.           Related Agreements.

This Note is issued pursuant to that certain Amended and Restated Loan Agreement of even date herewith by and between the Company and the Holders (the “Loan Agreement”) to which reference is made for a complete description of the rights, obligations, limitations and restrictions of or applicable to the Company and the Holder. Capitalized terms utilized herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement.  This Note and the Company’s obligations hereunder are secured by all of the assets of the Company as provided in that certain Amended and Restated Security Agreement (All Assets) of even date herewith (the “Security Agreement”) between the Company and the Holders.  In case of an Event of Default, the Holders shall have the rights set forth in the Loan Agreement and the Security Agreement.

  

  

  

2.           Payments.

(a)           The ”Maturity Date” shall be January 31, 2013.

(b)           Interest shall accrue from and after the date of this Note at the fixed rate per annum of 13.5%.  Interest shall be calculated on a 360-day year but shall accrue and be payable based on the actual number of days in a month.

(c)           Commencing on July 1, 2011, and on the 1st day of each month thereafter (each, a “Payment Date”), interest on the outstanding principal balance hereunder shall be payable monthly in arrears.  In addition, on each Payment Date, the Company shall make a monthly principal payment equal to the product of (i) $150,000.00, and (ii) the Principal Allocation Percentage (hereinafter defined).  The "Principal Allocation Percentage" shall be determined by dividing the principal balance of this Note as of the applicable Payment Date by the aggregate principal balance of all of the Notes as of the same Payment Date.

(d)           On the Maturity Date, or such earlier date as may be required under the terms of this Note, the Company shall pay to the Holder the entire then-unpaid principal balance and all accrued, unpaid interest and other charges due hereunder.

(e)           After the Maturity Date, or such earlier date on which the balance of principal and interest accrued hereunder is due, interest on any overdue principal amount of this Note shall accrue at a rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum and shall be payable quarterly.

(f)           If the Maturity Date would fall on a day that is not a Business Day (as defined below), the payment due on such Maturity Date will be made on the immediately preceding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the Maturity Date.  “Business Day” means any day which is not a Saturday or Sunday and is not a day on which banking institutions are generally authorized or obligated to close in the City of New York, New York.

(g)           The Company may, at its option, prepay all or any part of the principal of this Note, without payment of any premium or penalty; provided that, the Company shall give Holder at least 15 days’ advance written notice of the Company’s intent to prepay and Holder shall have the right to convert all or any portion of this Note pursuant to Section 3(b) at any time during such 15-day period.  All payments on this Note, shall be applied first to accrued interest hereon and the balance to the payment of the principal hereof.

(h)           Payments of principal and interest on this Note shall be made by check sent to the Holder’s address set forth above or to such other address as the Holder may designate for such purpose from time to time by written notice to the Company, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

(i)           All payments hereunder shall be applied first to the payment of all fees, expenses and other amounts due to the Holder (excluding principal and interest), then to accrued interest, and the balance on account of outstanding principal; provided, however, that after an Event of Default payments will be applied to the obligations of the Company to the Holder as the Holder determines in its sole discretion.

  

  

  

(j)           The obligations to make the payments provided for in this Note and the Loan Agreement are absolute and unconditional and not subject to any defense, setoff, counterclaim, rescission, recoupment or adjustment whatsoever.  The Company hereby expressly waives demand and presentment for payment, notice of non-payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest, bringing of suit and diligence in taking any action to collect any amount called for hereunder, and shall be directly and primarily liable for the payment of all sums owing and to be owing hereunder, regardless of and without any notice, diligence, act or omission with respect to the collection of any amount called for hereunder.

3.           Additional Interest.  In addition to the amounts due under Section 2 under this Note, the Holder shall be entitled to Revenue Incentive Payments (as such term is defined in the Loan Agreement), in accordance with Section 1.11 of the Loan Agreement.

4.           Conversion.

(a)            Certain Definitions. The following terms shall have the meanings herein specified:

 “Capital Stock” means any of the current or future authorized class or series of capital stock of the Company.

“Common Stock” means authorized Common Stock, $.001 par value, of the Company, and shall include any other class or series of capital stock of the Company that is not limited to a fixed sum in respect of the rights of the holder thereof to participate in the liquidation or winding up of the Company.

“Conversion Shares” means the shares of Common Stock, or such other shares of Capital Stock, issuable upon conversion of this Note.

 (b)           Election to Convert. Holder may, at its option exercisable by written notice (the “Conversion Notice”) to the Company at any time prior to payment in full hereof, elect to convert all or any part of the entire outstanding principal amount of this Note plus a pro rata share of the accrued interest on the then outstanding balance (i) into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to $1.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the event of any stock splits, stock dividends or other recapitalization of Common Stock).  Conversion of this Note shall be conditioned on Holder’s execution of an investment representation statement in a form reasonably required by the Company.

(c)           Delivery of Conversion Shares. The Capital Stock issued on conversion of this Note (the “Conversion Shares”) shall be delivered as follows:

  

  

  

(i)  As promptly as practicable after conversion, the Company shall deliver to Holder, or to such person or persons as are designated by Holder in the Conversion Notice, a certificate or certificates representing the number of shares of Capital Stock into which this Note or portion thereof is to be converted in such name or names as are specified in the Conversion Notice, together with, in the case of conversion of the entire remaining principal balance hereof, any cash payable in respect of a fractional share. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been effected at the close of business on the date when this  Note shall have been surrendered to the Company for conversion, so that the person entitled to receive such Conversion Shares shall be treated for all purposes as having become the record holder of such Conversion Shares at such time.

                      (ii)   In the event that less than the entire outstanding principal of this Note is converted hereunder pursuant to subsection (b) above, this Note shall not be surrendered for cancellation but shall have the fact and amount of conversion recorded on the face of this Note by writing acknowledged by Holder and the Company. If less than the entire principal balance of this Note is converted, the amount of principal converted shall be reduced to the nearest amount that results in no fractional shares.

(d)           Reservation of Shares. The Company agrees that, during the period within which this Note may be converted, the Company will at all times have authorized and in reserve, and will keep available solely for delivery upon the conversion of this Note, Capital Stock and other securities and properties as from time to time shall be receivable upon the conversion of this Note, free and clear of all restrictions on issuance, sale or transfer other than those imposed by law and free and clear of all pre-emptive rights. The Company agrees that the Conversion Shares shall, at the time of such delivery, be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and non-assessable, and the Company will take all such action as may be necessary to assure that the stated value or par value per share of the Conversion Shares is at all times equal to or less than the Conversion Price.

 (e)           Protection Against Dilution.

                      (i)            In the event of any consolidation with or merger of the Company  with or into another corporation (other than a merger or consolidation in which the Company is the surviving or continuing corporation) while any principal or accrued interest remains outstanding under this Note, then such successor, shall (i) execute with the Holder an agreement providing that the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive upon conversion of this Note solely the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities, property, cash or any combination thereof receivable upon such consolidation, or merger by a holder of the number of shares of Capital Stock for which this Note might have been converted immediately prior to such consolidation or merger, (ii) make effective provision in its Articles of Incorporation or otherwise, if necessary, in order to effect such agreement, and (iii) set aside or reserve, for the benefit of the Holder, the stock, securities, property and cash to which the Holder would be entitled upon conversion of this Note.

  

  

  

(ii)           In the event of any reclassification or change of the Capital Stock into which this Note may be converted (other than a change in par value or from no par value to a specified par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination, but including any change in the shares into two or more classes or series of shares), or in the event of any consolidation or merger of another corporation into the Company in which the Company is the continuing corporation and in which there is a reclassification or  change (including a change to the right to receive cash or other property) of the Capital Stock into which this Note may be converted (other than a change in par value, or from no par value to a specified par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination, but including any change in the shares into two or more classes or series of shares), in either case while any principal or accrued interest remains outstanding under this Note, then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive upon conversion of this Note solely the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities, property, cash or any combination thereof receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation or merger by a holder of the number of shares of Capital Stock for which this Note might have been converted immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation or merger.

The above provisions of this Section 3(e) shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications and changes of Capital Stock and to successive consolidations and mergers.

Notice of such consolidation, merger, sale, distribution, reclassification or reorganization and of such provisions so proposed to be made, shall be mailed to the Holder not less than fifteen (15) days prior to such event.

5.           Remedies Upon Default.

Upon the failure of the Company to make any payment due to the Holder hereunder, which failure shall not be cured within ten Business Days following the date that such payment is due, or upon the occurrence of any other Event of Default the Holder, by notice in writing given to the Company, may declare the entire principal amount then outstanding of, and the accrued interest on, this Note to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become and be due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by the Company.

6.           Transfer.

(a)           Any Notes issued upon the transfer of this Note shall be numbered and shall be registered in a Note Register as they are issued.  The Company shall be entitled to treat the registered holder of any Note on the Note Register as the owner in fact thereof for all purposes and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to, or interest in, such Note on the part of any other person, and shall not be liable for any registration or transfer of Notes which are registered or to be registered in the name of a fiduciary or the nominee of a fiduciary unless made with the actual knowledge that a fiduciary or nominee is committing a breach of trust in requesting such registration or transfer, or with the knowledge of such facts that its participation therein amounts to bad faith.  This Note shall be transferable only on the books of the Company upon delivery thereof duly endorsed by the Holder or by the Holder’s duly authorized attorney or representative, or accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignment, or authority to transfer.  In all cases of transfer by an attorney, executor, administrator, guardian, or other legal representative, duly authenticated evidence of his, her or its authority shall be produced.  Upon any registration of transfer, the Company shall deliver a new Note or Notes to the person entitled thereto.  This Note may be exchanged, at the option of the Holder thereof, for another Note, or other Notes of different denominations, of like tenor and representing in the aggregate a like principal amount, upon surrender hereto to the Company or its duly authorized agent.

  

  

  

(b)           The Holder acknowledges that it has been advised by the Company that this Note has not been registered under the Act, that the Note is being or has been issued on the basis of the statutory exemption provided by Section 4(2) of the Act or Regulation D promulgated thereunder, or both, relating to transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering, and that the Company’s reliance thereon is based in part upon the representations made by the original Holder in accordance with the terms of the Offering.  The Holder acknowledges that such Holder has been informed by the Company of, or is otherwise familiar with, the nature of the limitations imposed by the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder on the transfer of securities.  In particular, the Holder agrees that no sale, assignment or transfer of the Note shall be valid or effective, and the Company shall not be required to give any effect to any such sale, assignment or transfer (collectively, “Transfer”), unless (i) the Transfer of the Note is registered under the Act, it being understood that the Note is not currently registered for sale and that the Company has no obligation or intention to so register the Notes, or (ii) the Transfer is exempt from registration under the Act and the Holder delivers an opinion of counsel inform and substance satisfactory to the Company and counsel for the Company that the Transfer is so exempt, and, in either case, that the Transfer is not restricted by applicable state securities laws.

7.           Miscellaneous.

(a)           Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, or by Federal Express, Express Mail or similar overnight delivery or courier service or delivered (in person or by telecopy, telex or similar telecommunications equipment) against receipts to the party to whom it is to be given; (i) if to the Company, at its address at 1918 Main Street, 2nd Floor, Santa Monica, California 90405, Attention:  Chief Executive Officer, (ii) if to the Holder, at its address set forth on the first page hereof or (iii) in either case, to such other address as the party shall have furnished in writing in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7(a).  Notice to the estate of any party shall be sufficient if addressed to the party as provided in this Section 7(a).  Any notice or other communication given by certified mail shall be deemed given at the time of certification thereof, except for a notice changing a party’s address which shall be deemed given at the time of receipt thereof.  Any notice given by other means permitted by this Section 7(a) shall be deemed given at the time of receipt thereof.

(b)           All agreements between the Company and the Holder are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of maturity of the indebtedness evidenced hereby or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to the Holder for the use or the forbearance of the indebtedness evidenced hereby exceed the maximum permissible under applicable law.  As used herein, the term “applicable law” shall mean the law in effect as of the date hereof; provided, however, that in the event there is a change in the law which results in a higher permissible rate of interest, then this Note shall be governed by such new law as of its effective date.  In this regard, it is expressly agreed that it is the intent of the Company and the Holder in the execution, delivery and acceptance of this Note to contract in strict compliance with the laws of the State of California from time to time in effect.  If, under or from any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of such validity prescribed by applicable law, then the obligation to be fulfilled shall automatically be reduced to the limits of such validity, and if under or from circumstances whatsoever the Holder should ever receive as interest an amount which would exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance evidenced hereby and not to the payment of interest.  This provision shall control every other provision of all agreements between the Company and the Holder.

  

  

  

(c)           Upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Note (and upon surrender of this Note if mutilated), and upon reimbursement of the Company’s reasonable incidental expenses and in the case of loss, theft or destruction, indemnity as the Company shall, at its option, reasonable request and in form satisfactory to counsel for the Company, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new Note of like date, tenor and denomination.

(d)           No course of dealing and no delay or omission on the part of the Holder in exercising any right or remedy shall operate as a waive thereof or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies.  No right, power or remedy conferred by this Note upon the Holder shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise, and all such remedies may be exercised singly or concurrently.

(e)           This Note has been negotiated in the State of California and shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to principles governing conflicts of law.

(f)           The parties irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of the federal and state courts of the State of California in connection with any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Note, any document or instrument delivered pursuant to or in connection with this Note, or a breach of this Note or any such document or instrument.

(g)           This Note may be amended, or any of its provisions waived (which amendment or waiver shall be binding upon all future holders of this Note) only by written consent or consents executed by the Company, the Holder and Holders representing a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding.

(h)           The terms and conditions of this Note shall insure to the benefit, and be binding upon, the respective successors and assigns of the parties.

  

  

  

(i)           THE COMPANY AND THE HOLDER MUTUALLY HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM BASED HEREON, ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS CONTEMPLATED TO BE EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALINGS, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALINGS, STATEMENTS OR ACTIONS OF THE HOLDER RELATING TO THE ADMINISTRATION OF THIS NOTE OR ENFORCEMENT OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND AGREE THAT NEITHER PARTY WILL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH ACTION WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED.  EXCEPT AS PROHIBITED BY LAW, THE COMPANY HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT THEY MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER IN ANY LITIGATION ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR ANY DAMAGES OTHER THAN, OR IN ADDITION TO, ACTUAL DAMAGES.  THE COMPANY CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF THE HOLDER HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT THE HOLDER WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER.  THIS WAIVER CONSTITUTES A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE HOLDER TO ACCEPT THIS NOTE AND MAKE THE LOAN.

(j)           If action is instituted to collect on this Note, the Company promises to pay all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred in connection with such action.

 

(k)           This Note may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original and all of which together will constitute a single agreement.
