AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

This AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER, dated as of July 24, 2023 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, and together with all exhibits and schedules hereto, this “Agreement”), is entered into by and among Inpixon, a Nevada corporation (“Parent”), XTI Aircraft Company, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Superfly Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”). This Agreement is based on the following premises:

WHEREAS, the respective Boards of Directors of each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub have approved the acquisition of the Company by Parent through the statutory merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company, whereupon the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease, and the Company shall be the surviving corporation (the “Merger”) upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement;

WHEREAS, the parties hereto intend that the Merger qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code (as defined below);

WHEREAS, on or about or prior to the Closing Date (as defined below), it is expected that Parent will have completed the divestiture of its Shoom, SAVES and Game Your Game (“GYG”) lines of business and investment securities, as applicable, by any lawful means, including a sale to one or more third parties, spin off, plan of arrangement, merger, reorganization, or any combination of the foregoing (the “Solutions Divestiture”);

WHEREAS, following the Solutions Divestiture, Parent’s primary assets and operations shall be the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) business line (the “IIoT Business”), and the business line of the Company if the Solutions Divestiture is consummated following the Closing Date;

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company has adopted resolutions (a) approving this Agreement and the Merger and the Company’s execution and delivery of this Agreement and, subject to obtainment of the Company Required Vote (as defined below), the Company’s performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, (b) declaring the advisability of this Agreement and (c) submitting this Agreement to the stockholders of the Company;

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of Parent has adopted resolutions (a) determining that this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, the Merger and the issuance of shares of Parent Common Stock (as defined below) on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement (the “Parent Stock Issuance”), are advisable for and in the best interests of Parent and its stockholders, (b) approving Parent’s execution and delivery of this Agreement and, subject to obtainment of the Parent Required Vote (as defined below), Parent’s performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, (c) recommending that Parent’s stockholders approve the Parent Stock Issuance, and such other provisions hereof, if any, requiring approval by Parent’s stockholders pursuant to applicable law or the rules and regulations of the NASDAQ (as defined below), and (d) submitting the Parent Stock Issuance to Parent’s stockholders for approval, together with any other proposals for Parent stockholder approval deemed necessary by Parent in connection with this Agreement;

1

WHEREAS, Board of Directors of Merger Sub has adopted resolutions (a) approving this Agreement and the Merger and Merger Sub’s execution and delivery of this Agreement and, subject to obtainment of the adoption of this Agreement by Parent, as the sole stockholder of Merger Sub, Merger Sub’s performance of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, (b) declaring the advisability of this Agreement and (c) submitting this Agreement to Parent, as the sole stockholder of Merger Sub; and

WHEREAS, the Company, Parent and Merger Sub desire to make certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in connection with the Merger and to prescribe certain conditions to the Merger.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, and of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. THE MERGER

1.1 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (“DGCL”), at the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall merge with and into the Company, whereupon the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease, and the Company shall be the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Company”). The parties to this Agreement agree to report the Merger for any and all U.S. federal and state income Tax reporting purposes as a reorganization described in Section 368(a)(1)(A) of the Code by reason of Section 368(a)(2)(E) of the Code. The parties to this Agreement hereby adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a). The Company, Parent and Merger Sub each will be a party to the reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(b) of the Code.

1.2 Effective Time. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Merger shall become effective as set forth in a certificate of merger providing for the Merger satisfying the applicable requirements of the DGCL (the “Certificate of Merger”), which shall be duly executed and filed by the Company with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Secretary”) on the Closing Date (as defined below) or as soon thereafter as practicable. As used herein, the term “Effective Time” shall mean the date and time when the Merger becomes effective as provided by the DGCL, which shall be the time of the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Delaware Secretary or such later time as may be agreed by the Company and Parent and specified in the Certificate of Merger in accordance with the DGCL.

1.3 Closing of the Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall be effected by the exchange of signatures on the applicable Closing documents by electronic transmission, or, if such exchange is not practicable, will take place (a) at the Denver, Colorado offices of Arnold & Porter Kaye Scholer LLP, at 9:00 a.m., Mountain Time, on the date that is the second Business Day after the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 8 hereof, other than conditions which by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, or (b) such other location, date or time as the parties may mutually agree (the “Closing Date”), unless this Agreement has been terminated pursuant to its terms or unless another time or date is agreed to in writing by the parties hereto. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Business Day” shall mean any day that is not a Saturday, a Sunday or other day on which the office of the Delaware Secretary is closed.

2

1.4 Certificate of Incorporation of the Company. At the Effective Time, the certificate of incorporation of the Company as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) shall remain as the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Company until thereafter amended in accordance with the terms thereof or as provided by applicable law.

1.5 Bylaws of the Company. The Company shall take all lawful action so that the bylaws of the Company as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, at the Effective Time, be amended and restated to read in their entirety to be substantially the same as the bylaws of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that the name of the Surviving Company shall be “XTI Aircraft Company” and, as so amended and restated, shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Company until thereafter amended in accordance with the terms thereof, the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Company, or as provided by applicable law.

1.6 Board of Directors and Officers of the Surviving Company. Prior to the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall take the lawful actions necessary so that, at the Effective Time, the directors and officers of the Surviving Company shall be as set forth on Section 1.6 of the Company Disclosure Letter (as defined below), each to hold office until their successors have been duly elected or appointed and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the Surviving Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws and applicable law.

2. EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON THE CAPITAL STOCK OF THE CONSTITUENT CORPORATIONS

2.1 Conversion of Company Common Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, the Company, Merger Sub or the holder of any of the shares of Company Common Stock (as defined below), Parent Common Stock or any capital stock of Merger Sub:

(a) All shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the “Company Common Stock”) held in treasury or owned directly or indirectly by the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be cancelled and shall not represent capital stock of the Surviving Company and shall not be converted into and become the right to receive the Merger Consideration (as defined below); shares of Company Common Stock that are canceled pursuant to this Section 2.1(a) are hereinafter referred to as the “Cancelled Shares”;

(b) Subject to Section 2.1(d), each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any Cancelled Shares and Dissenting Shares (as defined below)) shall automatically be converted into and become the right to receive a number of shares of Parent Common Stock determined by multiplying such share by the Exchange Ratio (the “Merger Consideration”); “Exchange Ratio” shall have the meaning set forth in Exhibit A; as of the Effective Time, each share of Company Common Stock converted as aforesaid shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and shall thereafter only represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without interest;

3

(c) Each share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be converted into and become one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Surviving Company; and

(d) No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued in respect of any share of Company Common Stock that is converted in the Merger into the right to receive the Merger Consideration. If any fractional share of Parent Common Stock would, except for the provisions of this Section 2.1(d), be issuable pursuant to this Agreement to a holder of one or more shares of Company Common Stock that are converted in the Merger into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, the number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued to such holder, will be rounded up to the nearest whole share of Parent Common Stock.

2.2 Treatment of Company Warrants.

(a) The Company (subject to Parent’s review and consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld) shall take all lawful action so that each Company Warrant (as defined in Section 4.2 of this Agreement) entitling the holder to purchase one share of Company Common Stock, whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, at the Effective Time, cease to represent a right to acquire shares of Company Common Stock and shall be assumed and converted into a warrant representing the right to acquire shares of Parent Common Stock (each, an “Assumed Company Warrant”), on the same terms and conditions (including any vesting or forfeiture provisions or repurchase rights, but taking into account any acceleration thereof provided for in the related warrant document by reason of the transactions contemplated hereby) as were applicable under such Company Warrant as of immediately prior to the Effective Time. The number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to each such Assumed Company Warrant shall be equal to (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to each Company Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (ii) the Exchange Ratio, rounded down, if necessary, to the nearest whole share of Parent Common Stock, and such Assumed Company Warrant shall have an exercise price per share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to (A) the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock otherwise purchasable pursuant to such Company Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by (B) the Exchange Ratio.

(b) The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that, as of the Effective Time, no current or former holder of a Company Warrant shall have any rights thereunder to acquire, or other rights in respect of, the capital stock of the Company, the Surviving Company or any of their Subsidiaries (as defined below), or any other equity interest therein. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall deliver a notice to holders of Assumed Company Warrants describing the adjustments set forth in this Section 2.2.

(c) Parent shall reserve for issuance a number of shares of Parent Common Stock at least equal to the number of shares of Parent Common Stock that will be subject to Assumed Company Warrants as a result of the actions contemplated by this Section 2.2.

4

2.3 Treatment of Company Options.

(a) The Company (subject to Parent’s review and consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld) shall take all lawful action so that each option to purchase Company Common Stock issued by the Company pursuant to the Company Stock Plans (as defined below) and the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of May 23, 2021, by and among the Company and the purchasers party thereto (the “2021 Note Purchase Agreement”), whether or not then vested or exercisable, that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (each a “Company Option” and collectively, the “Company Options”) shall, at the Effective Time, be assumed by Parent so that, at the Effective Time, each Company Option shall be deemed to constitute an option to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such Company Option as set forth in the applicable Company Stock Plan (including any applicable award agreement, other agreement or other document evidencing such Company Option) and the applicable options award agreement entered into pursuant to the 2021 Note Purchase Agreement, in each case immediately prior to the Effective Time, such number of shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole number) that is equal to the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to the unexercised portion of such Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio and the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed Company Option shall be equal to the exercise price per share of such Company Option in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by the Exchange Ratio (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) (the “Assumed Company Options”). The assumption of the Company Options is intended to comply with the regulations and other binding guidance under Section 409A of the Code, including Treas. Reg. 1.409A-1(b)(5)(v)(D), and the Assumed Company Options shall be subject to the same terms and conditions (including vesting schedule, expiration date, exercise provisions, transfer restrictions and status as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Code, if applicable) as were applicable to the corresponding Company Options immediately prior to the Effective Time. It is the intention of the parties hereto that each Company Option issued pursuant to the Company Stock Plans so assumed by Parent shall qualify at the Effective Time as an incentive stock option as defined in Section 422 of the Code to the extent permitted under Section 422 of the Code and to the extent such Company Option qualified as an incentive stock option immediately prior to the Effective Time and the provisions of this Section 2.3(a) shall be applied consistent with that intent and in a manner that satisfies the requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.424-1(a). Within 30 Business Days after the Effective Time, Parent will issue to each Person who, immediately prior to the Effective Time, was a holder of a Company Option, a document evidencing the foregoing assumption of such Company Option by Parent.

(b) Parent shall file a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor form) or another appropriate form with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock subject to the Assumed Company Options within a reasonable period of time after the Effective Time, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts at least equivalent to those used in maintaining the effectiveness of its existing registration statement(s) for its equity plans to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement for so long as such Assumed Company Options remain outstanding. The Company and its counsel shall reasonably cooperate with and assist Parent in the preparation of such registration statement.

5

(c) From and after the Effective Time, unless the compensation committee of the Parent Board (as defined below) determines otherwise, all references to the Company in the Company Stock Plans and in each award or other agreement evidencing or relating to any Assumed Company Option or any other Company equity-based award, shall be deemed (i) for all purposes relating to employment, consultancy or directorship (or words of similar meaning) to refer to Parent and its Subsidiaries and (ii) for all other purposes, to refer to Parent.]

2.4 Treatment of Company Convertible Notes.

Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” Unless the context otherwise requires, “or” is not exclusive. The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term. The table of contents and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to require the Company, Merger Sub, Parent, any of Parent’s Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors or Affiliates to take any action which would violate or conflict with any applicable law (whether statutory or common), rule or regulation. This Agreement shall be construed without regard to any presumption or interpretation against the party drafting or causing any instrument to be drafted. All schedules accompanying this Agreement and all information specifically referenced in any such schedule form an integral part of this Agreement, and references to this Agreement include reference to them.

75

10.5Entire Agreement. This Agreement (which is defined to include the schedules and exhibits hereto), the Company Disclosure Letter and the Parent Disclosure Letter constitute the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, other than the Confidentiality Agreement, which shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and any termination of this Agreement.

10.6Specific Performance. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions and that, accordingly, the parties hereto shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the parties hereto agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief sought in accordance with this Section 10.6 on the basis that any other party hereto has an adequate remedy at law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity. Any party hereto seeking an injunction or injunctions in accordance with this Agreement to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

10.7Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to any applicable conflicts of law provisions (except to the extent (x) of mandatory provisions of federal law or (y) the internal affairs doctrine requires the applicable laws of the State of Nevada). To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each of the parties hereto irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware or, to the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware is found to lack jurisdiction, then the Superior Court of the State of Delaware or, to the extent that both of the aforesaid courts are found to lack jurisdiction, then the United States District Court of the District of Delaware (or in any appellate court thereof) for the purpose of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, which is brought by or against any other party hereto and hereby irrevocably agree (a) that all claims in respect of any such suit, action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court and (b) not to commence any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby other than in such court. Each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to assert in any such suit, action or proceeding, in each case, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, (i) any objection to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court, (ii) any claim that such party is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, and (iii) any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum. Each party hereto agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document as provided in and to such party as provided in Section 10.3 shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding brought against such party in any such court. Each party hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be conclusive and binding upon such party and may be enforced in any other courts to whose jurisdiction such party is or may be subject, by suit upon such judgment. The parties hereto further agree that all of the provisions of Section 10.11 relating to waiver of jury trial shall apply to any action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third-party claim referenced in this Section 10.7.

76

10.8Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement which is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction, and if any provision of this Agreement is determined to be so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable, in all cases so long as neither the economic nor legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is affected in any manner materially adverse to any party or its stockholders. Upon any such determination, the Company and Parent shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon a suitable and equitable substitute provision to effect the original intent of the parties.

10.9Publicity. Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall consult with each other before issuing any press release with respect to the Merger or this Agreement and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the prior consent of the other party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that a party may, without the prior consent of the other party (but after prior consultation, to the extent practicable in the circumstances) issue such press release or make such public statement or SEC filing as may upon the advice of outside counsel be required by applicable law or the rules and regulations of any applicable stock exchange (including the NASDAQ). The parties have agreed upon the form of a joint press release announcing the Merger and the execution of this Agreement.

10.10Assignment; Third Party Beneficiaries. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations of any party hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other party. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except for (a) the right of a holder of each share of Company Common Stock converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.1(b) and (b) the rights of the Company’s stockholders to pursue claims for damages and other relief, including equitable relief, for Parent’s or Merger Sub’s willful breach of this Agreement (provided, that the rights granted pursuant to this clause shall be enforceable on behalf of the stockholders only by the Company in its sole and absolute discretion), this Agreement (including the documents and instruments referred to herein) is not intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder.

77

10.11Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED UPON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

10.12Counterparts; Delivery.

In the event that any signature to this Agreement or any agreement or certificate delivered pursuant hereto, or any amendment thereof, is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof. No party hereto shall raise the use of a facsimile machine or e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file to deliver any such signature page or the fact that such signature was transmitted or communicated through the use of a facsimile machine or e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a contract and each party hereto forever waives any such defense.

Unless otherwise provided herein under Section 22, neither the execution, delivery or performance by Borrower of the Loan Documents to which it is a party nor compliance with the terms and provisions hereof or thereof nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby will (a) result in any breach of any of the terms, material covenants, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a material default under, or result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any lien upon any of the material property or assets of Borrower (other than liens created by or otherwise permitted under the Loan Documents) pursuant to, the terms of any material indenture, loan agreement, lease agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, agreement or other material instrument to which it is party or by which it or any of its property or assets is bound or (b) violate any provision of its certificate of incorporation or bylaws.

Borrower has filed, or caused to be filed, all federal and all material state or local income tax returns and all other material tax returns required to be filed by it and has paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on its return(s) or on any assessment made against it, other than those (i) not yet delinquent or (ii) contested in good faith as to which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied (“GAAP”).

2.7 Good Title and Absence of Liens. As of the date of this Note, Borrower has good and marketable title to or leasehold interest in all of its properties and assets, real, personal and mixed, that are necessary for the operation of its business as currently conducted, free and clear of all liens or other encumbrances except liens in favor Lender, or liens otherwise permitted under the Loan Documents.

2.8 Reaffirmation. Each and every request for a loan or other financial accommodation hereunder shall be deemed as an affirmation by Borrower that no Event of Default (as defined below) exists hereunder and that the representations and warranties contained in this Note are true and accurate in all material respects (or in all respects to the extent already qualified by materiality) as of the date of the issuance of this Note as if made on and as of such date (other than any representation or warranty that expressly speaks only as of a different date to the extent not true and correct in all material respects (or in all respects to the extent already qualified by materiality) as of such earlier date) as of the date of each such request.

The fair value of the business and assets of Borrower (including, without limitation, contingent, unmatured, and unliquidated claims arising out of all rights of indemnity, contribution, reimbursement, or any similar right, or any claim of subrogation arising in respect of any guaranty, as such claims may arise or mature, that Borrower may have against it) will be in excess of the amount that will be required to pay its liabilities (including, without limitation, contingent, subordinated, unmatured, and unliquidated liabilities on existing debts, as such liabilities may become absolute and matured), in each case after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Note and the use of proceeds therefrom. Borrower, after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Note and the use of proceeds therefrom, will not be engaged in any business or transaction, or about to engage in any business or transaction, for which it has an unreasonably small capital (within the meaning of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, as adopted in the State of New York and Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code (defined below)), and Borrower has no intent to: (i) hinder, delay or defraud any entity to which it is, or will become, on or after the date hereof, indebted, or (ii) incur debts that would be beyond its ability to pay as they mature.

2.10 Defaults. Borrower is not in default under any material agreement to which it is a party or by which it or any of its material property is bound, or under any instrument evidencing any material indebtedness, and neither the execution of nor performance under the Loan Documents will create a default or any lien under any such agreement or instrument other than a lien in favor of Lender in accordance with the Security Agreement.

5 Interest.

5.1 Interest Rate. The Principal Debt from day-to-day outstanding that is not past due shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to ten percent (10)% percent (the “Interest Rate”), compounded annually and computed on the basis of a 365-day year beginning on the date such amount is advanced by Lender to Borrower.

5.2 Computations and Determinations. All interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days and paid for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). Lender shall determine each interest amount applicable to the Principal Debt in accordance with this Note and its determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The books and records of Lender shall be conclusive evidence, in the absence of manifest error, of all sums owing to Lender from time to time under this Note, but the failure to record any such information shall not limit or affect the obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents.

5.3 Past Due Rate. If any amount payable by Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when due, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at the Past Due Rate (as hereinafter defined), in lieu of the Interest Rate, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. In addition, following any Event of Default, all the Indebtedness shall bear interest at the Past Due Rate, in lieu of the Interest Rate. In either case, accrued and unpaid interest or past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal to eighteen percent (18%) compounded annually and computed on the basis of a 365-day year, in lieu of the Interest Rate, provided that in no event shall the rate of interest hereunder exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law (the “Past Due Rate”).

6 Prepayment.

6.1 Borrower may prepay the Principal Debt, in full at any time or in part from time to time, without penalty or premium, provided that:

6.1.1 Lender shall have actually received from Borrower prior written notice (the “Prepayment Notice”) setting forth (A) Borrower’s intent to prepay, (B) the amount of principal that will be prepaid (the “Prepaid Principal”), and (C) the date on which the prepayment will be made, such Prepayment Notice to be received by Lender, in each case, on or prior to the date that is 5 days prior to the date of such proposed prepayment, provided that Borrower shall have the right to revoke any Prepayment Notice prior to payment of the Prepaid Principal;

6.1.2 each prepayment shall be in the amount of one hundred percent (100%) of the Prepaid Principal, plus accrued unpaid interest thereon to the date of prepayment (or the end of the month in which the prepayment is made), plus any other sums that have become due to Lender under the Loan Documents on or before the date of prepayment but have not been paid.

6.2 If this Note is prepaid in full, any commitment of Lender for further advances shall automatically terminate. No Prepaid Principal may be reborrowed.

8

7 Certain Provisions Regarding Payments. All payments made under this Note shall be applied, to the extent thereof, to late charges, to accrued but unpaid interest, to unpaid principal, and to any other sums due and unpaid to Lender under the Loan Documents, in such manner and order as Lender may elect in its sole discretion, any instructions from Borrower or anyone else to the contrary notwithstanding. Remittances shall be made without offset, demand, counterclaim, deduction, or recoupment (each of which is hereby waived) and shall be accepted subject to the condition that any check or draft may be handled for collection in accordance with the practice of the collecting bank or banks. Acceptance by Lender of any payment in an amount less than the amount then due on any of the Indebtedness shall be deemed an acceptance on account only, notwithstanding any notation on or accompanying such partial payment to the contrary, and shall not in any way (a) waive or excuse the existence of an Event of Default (as hereinafter defined), (b) waive, impair, or extinguish any right or remedy available to Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, or (c) waive the requirement of punctual payment and performance or constitute a novation in any respect. Payments received after 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time shall be deemed to be received on, and shall be posted as of, the following business day. Whenever any payment under this Note or any other Loan Document falls due on a day that is not a business day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding business day. As used in this Agreement, “business day” means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a bank holiday in the City of New York, New York.

8 Events of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default” under this Note:

8.2 Borrower fails to perform or observe any material term, covenant or agreement contained in this Note other than the payment of money which is the subject of Section 8.1 above and such failure continues for 10 calendar days.

8.3 An Event of Default (as defined in the Security Agreement) occurs.

8.4 Any representation, warranty, certification or statement of fact made or deemed made by or on behalf of Borrower herein, or in the Security Agreement or any document delivered in connection herewith or therewith shall be incorrect or misleading in any material respect when made or any representation, warranty, certification or statement of fact contained herein is or becomes false or materially misleading at any time.

8.5 Borrower institutes or consents to the institution of any Insolvency Proceeding or consents to the appointment of any receiver, trustee, custodian, conservator, liquidator, rehabilitator or similar officer for it or for all or any material part of its property; or any receiver, trustee, custodian, conservator, liquidator, rehabilitator or similar officer is appointed without the application or consent of Borrower and the appointment continues undischarged or unstayed for 60 calendar days; or any Insolvency Proceeding relating to Borrower or to all or any material part of its property is instituted without the consent of Borrower and continues undismissed or unstayed for 60 calendar days, or an order for relief is entered in any such Insolvency Proceeding.

8.7 There is entered against Borrower one or more final judgments or orders for the payment of money in an aggregate amount (as to all such judgments or orders) exceeding $100,000.

9

8.8 This Note or the Security Agreement or any material provision hereof or thereof, at any time after its execution and delivery and for any reason other than as expressly permitted hereunder or thereunder or satisfaction in full of all the Obligations of Borrower, ceases to be in full force and effect; or Borrower contests in any manner the validity or enforceability of this Note or the Security Agreement or any provision hereof or thereof other than a contest based solely on all of the Obligations having already been paid or satisfied in full; or Borrower denies that it has any or further liability or obligation under this Note or the Security Agreement other than a denial based solely on all of the Obligations having already been paid or satisfied in full, or revokes, terminates or rescinds or purports to revoke, terminate or rescind this Note or the Security Agreement or any provision thereof.

For purposes of this Note, “Insolvency Proceeding” means any proceeding commenced by or against any person or entity under any provision of the Bankruptcy Code or under any other bankruptcy or insolvency law, assignments for the benefit of creditors, formal or informal moratoria, compositions, or extensions generally with creditors, or proceedings seeking reorganization, arrangement, or other similar relief; and “Bankruptcy Code” means Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code, 11 U.S.C. §§ 101 et seq. (or other applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws).

9 Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may at any time thereafter exercise any one or more of the following rights, powers, and remedies:

9.1 Lender may accelerate the Maturity Date and declare the Principal Debt and accrued but unpaid interest thereon, and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, at once due and payable, and upon such declaration the same shall at once be due and payable.

9.2 Lender may set off the amount owed by Borrower to Lender, whether or not matured and regardless of the adequacy of any other collateral securing this Note, against any and all accounts, credits, money, securities or other property now or hereafter on deposit with, held by or in the possession of Lender to the credit or for the account of Borrower, without notice to or the consent of Borrower.

9.3 Lender may exercise any of its other rights, powers, and remedies under the Loan Documents or at law or in equity.

10 Remedies Cumulative. All of the rights and remedies of Lender under this Note and the other Loan Documents are cumulative of each other and of any and all other rights at law or in equity, and the exercise by Lender of any one or more of such rights and remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Lender of any or all such other rights and remedies. No single or partial exercise of any right or remedy shall exhaust it or preclude any other or further exercise thereof, and every right and remedy may be exercised at any time and from time to time. No failure by Lender to exercise, nor delay in exercising, any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver of such right or remedy or as a waiver of any Event of Default.

11 Costs and Expenses of Enforcement. Borrower agrees to pay to Lender on demand all costs and expenses incurred by Lender in seeking to collect this Note or to enforce any of Lender’s rights and remedies under the Loan Documents, including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, whether or not suit is filed hereon, or whether in connection with bankruptcy, insolvency, or appeal.

Borrower irrevocably agrees that such service shall be deemed to be service of process upon Borrower in any such suit, action, or proceeding. Nothing in this Note shall affect the right of Lender to serve process in any manner otherwise permitted by law and nothing in this Note will limit the right of Lender otherwise to bring proceedings against Borrower in the courts of any jurisdiction or jurisdictions.

A determination that any provision of this Note is unenforceable or invalid shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision and the determination that the application of any provision of this Note to any person or circumstance is illegal or unenforceable shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to other persons or circumstances. This Note may not be amended except in a writing specifically intended for such purpose and executed by the party against whom enforcement of the amendment is sought.

Such recordings and filings and all other action necessary to perfect and protect such security interest have been duly taken (and, in the case of Collateral in which Debtor obtains rights after the date hereof, will be duly taken), except for Lender’s having possession of all Documents, Chattel Paper, Instruments and cash constituting Collateral after the date hereof and the other actions, filings and recordations described above, including the Perfection Requirements.

(c) Condition of Equipment. Debtor will maintain or cause to be maintained and preserved in good condition, repair and working order, ordinary wear and tear excepted, the Equipment (necessary or useful to its business) and will forthwith, or in the case of any loss or damage to any Equipment of Debtor within a commercially reasonable time after the occurrence thereof, make or cause to be made all repairs, replacements and other improvements in connection therewith which are necessary or desirable, consistent with past practice, or which Lender may request to such end. Debtor will promptly furnish to Lender a statement describing in reasonable detail any such loss or damage in excess of $25,000 per occurrence to any Equipment.

(d) Taxes, Etc. Debtor agrees to pay promptly when due all property and other taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon, and all claims (including claims for labor, materials and supplies) against, the Equipment and Inventory, except to the extent the validity thereof is being contested in good faith by proper proceedings which stay the imposition of any penalty, fine or Lien resulting from the non-payment thereof and with respect to which adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP have been set aside for the payment thereof.

(e) Insurance.

(i) Debtor will, at its own expense, maintain insurance (including, without limitation, comprehensive general liability, hazard, rent and business interruption insurance) with respect to its properties (including all real properties leased or owned by it) and business, in such amounts and covering such risks, in such form and with responsible and reputable insurance companies or associations as is required by any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction with respect thereto or as is carried generally in accordance with sound business practice by companies in similar businesses similarly situated and in any event, in amount, adequacy and scope reasonably satisfactory to Lender.

11

(ii) To the extent requested by Lender at any time and from time to time, each such policy for liability insurance shall provide for all losses to be paid on behalf of Lender and Debtor as their respective interests may appear, and each policy for property damage insurance shall provide for all losses to be adjusted with, and paid directly to, Lender. In addition to and without limiting the foregoing, to the extent requested by Lender at any time and from time to time, each such policy shall in addition (A) name Lender as an additional insured party and/or lender loss payee, as applicable, thereunder (without any representation or warranty by or obligation upon Lender) as its interests may appear, (B) contain an agreement by the insurer that any loss thereunder shall be payable to Lender on its own account notwithstanding any action, inaction or breach of representation or warranty by Debtor, (C) provide that there shall be no recourse against Lender for payment of premiums or other amounts with respect thereto, and (D) provide that at least 30 days’ prior written notice of cancellation, lapse, expiration or other adverse change shall be given to Lender by the insurer. Debtor will, if so requested by Lender, deliver to Lender original or duplicate policies of such insurance (including certificates demonstrating compliance with this Section 5(e)) and, as often as Lender may reasonably request, a report of a reputable insurance broker with respect to such insurance. Debtor will also, at the request of Lender, execute and deliver instruments of assignment of such insurance policies and cause the respective insurers to acknowledge notice of such assignment.

(iii) Reimbursement under any liability insurance maintained by Debtor pursuant to this Section 5(e) may be paid directly to the Person who shall have incurred liability covered by such insurance. In the case of any loss involving damage to Equipment or Inventory, to the extent paragraph (iv) of this Section 5(e) is not applicable, any proceeds of insurance involving such damage shall be paid to Lender, and Debtor will make or cause to be made the necessary repairs to or replacements of such Equipment or Inventory, and any proceeds of insurance maintained by Debtor pursuant to this Section 5(e) (except as otherwise provided in paragraph (iv) in this Section 5(e)) shall be paid by Lender to Debtor as reimbursement for the reasonable costs of such repairs or replacements.

(ii) Debtor will (except as otherwise provided in this subsection (f)), continue to collect, at its own expense, all amounts due or to become due under the Accounts. In connection with such collections, Debtor may (and, at Lender’s direction, will) take such action as Debtor or Lender may deem necessary or advisable to enforce collection or performance of the Accounts; provided, however, that Lender shall have the right at any time following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default to notify the Account Debtors or obligors under any Accounts of the assignment of such Accounts to Lender and to direct such Account Debtors or obligors to make payment of all amounts due or to become due to Debtor thereunder directly to Lender or its designated agent and, upon such notification and at the expense of Debtor and to the extent permitted by applicable law, to enforce collection of any such Accounts and to reasonably adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as Debtor might have done. After receipt by Debtor of a notice from Lender that Lender has notified, intends to notify, or has enforced or intends to enforce Debtor’s rights against the Account Debtors or obligors under any Accounts as referred to in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, (A) all amounts and proceeds (including Instruments) received by Debtor in respect of the Accounts shall be received in trust for the benefit of Lender, shall be segregated from other funds of Debtor and shall be forthwith paid over to Lender in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be applied as specified in Section 7.b) hereof, and (B) Debtor will not adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any Account or release wholly or partly any Account Debtor or obligor thereof or allow any credit or discount thereon. In addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may (in its sole and absolute discretion) direct any or all of the banks and financial institutions with which Debtor either maintains a Deposit Account or a lockbox (including, without limitation, any Controlled Account) or deposits the proceeds of any Accounts to send immediately to Lender by wire transfer (to such deposit account as Lender shall specify, or in such other manner as Lender shall direct) all or a portion of such securities, cash, investments and other items held by such institution. Any such securities, cash, investments and other items so received by Lender shall be applied as specified in accordance with Section 7.b) hereof.

12

(iii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any breach or default under any material License referred to in Schedule II hereto by any party thereto other than Debtor, Debtor will, promptly after obtaining knowledge thereof, give Lender written notice of the nature and duration thereof, specifying what action, if any, it has taken and proposes to take with respect thereto and thereafter will take reasonable steps to protect and preserve its rights and remedies in respect of such breach or default, or will obtain or acquire an appropriate substitute License.

(iv) Debtor will, at its expense, promptly deliver to Lender a copy of each notice or other communication received by it by which any other party to any material License referred to in Schedule II hereto purports to exercise any of its rights or affect any of its obligations thereunder, together with a copy of any reply by Debtor thereto.

(v) Debtor will exercise promptly and diligently each and every right which it may have under each material License (other than any right of termination) and will duly perform and observe in all respects all of its obligations under each material License and will take all action reasonably necessary to maintain such Licenses in full force and effect. Debtor will not, without the prior written consent of Lender, cancel, terminate, amend or otherwise modify in any respect, or waive any provision of, any material License referred to in Schedule II hereto.

(g) Transfers and Other Liens.

(i) Debtor shall not, directly or indirectly, sell, lease, license, assign, transfer, spin-off, split-off, close, convey or otherwise dispose of any Collateral whether in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, other than (A) sales, leases, licenses, assignments, transfers, conveyances and other dispositions of such assets or rights by Debtor for value in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices and (B) sales of Inventory and product in the ordinary course of business.

(ii) Debtor shall not, directly or indirectly, redeem, repurchase or declare or pay any cash dividend or distribution on any of its Capital Stock.

(iii) Debtor shall not, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of Lender, (A) issue any promissory note (other than the Note in favor of Lender) or (B) issue any other securities that would cause a breach or default under the Note.

(iv) Debtor shall not enter into, renew, extend or be a party to, any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, the purchase, sale, lease, transfer or exchange of property or assets of any kind or the rendering of services of any kind) with any Affiliate, except in the ordinary course of business in a manner and to an extent consistent with past practice and necessary or desirable for the prudent operation of its business, for fair consideration and on terms no less favorable to it than would be obtainable in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a Person that is not an Affiliate thereof.

13

(v) Debtor will not create, suffer to exist or grant any Lien upon or with respect to any Collateral other than a Permitted Lien.

(h) Intellectual Property.

(i) If applicable, Debtor shall duly execute and deliver the applicable Intellectual Property Security Agreement. Debtor (either itself or through licensees) will, and will cause each licensee thereof to, take all action necessary to maintain all of the Intellectual Property in full force and effect, including, without limitation, using the proper statutory notices, numbers and markings (relating to patent, trademark and copyright rights) and using the Trademarks on each applicable trademark class of goods in order to so maintain the Trademarks in full force and free from any claim of abandonment for non-use, and Debtor will not (nor permit any licensee thereof to) do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any Intellectual Property may become abandoned, cancelled or invalidated; provided, however, that so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Debtor shall not have an obligation to use or to maintain any Intellectual Property (A) that relates solely to any product or work, that is no longer necessary or material and has been, or is in the process of being, discontinued, abandoned or terminated in the ordinary course of business and consistent with the exercise of reasonable business judgment, (B) that is being replaced with Intellectual Property substantially similar to the Intellectual Property that may be abandoned or otherwise become invalid, so long as the failure to use or maintain such Intellectual Property does not materially adversely affect the validity of such replacement Intellectual Property and so long as such replacement Intellectual Property is subject to the Lien created by this Agreement and does not have a material adverse effect on the business of Debtor or (C) that is substantially the same as another Intellectual Property that is in full force, so long the failure to use or maintain such Intellectual Property does not materially adversely affect the validity of such replacement Intellectual Property and so long as such other Intellectual Property is subject to the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement and does not have a material adverse effect on the business of Debtor. Debtor will cause to be taken all necessary steps in any proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency in any other country or political subdivision thereof to maintain each registration of the Intellectual Property and application for registration of Intellectual Property (other than the Intellectual Property described in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence), including, without limitation, filing of initial registrations, renewals, affidavits of use, affidavits of incontestability and opposition, interference and cancellation proceedings and payment of maintenance fees, filing fees, taxes or other governmental fees. If any Intellectual Property (other than Intellectual Property described in the proviso to the second sentence of subsection (i) of this clause (h)) is infringed, misappropriated, diluted or otherwise violated in any material respect by a third party, Debtor shall (x) upon learning of such infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other violation, promptly notify Lender and (y) promptly take all commercially reasonable steps to protect its rights, including possibly commencing an action to sue for infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other violation, seek injunctive relief where appropriate and recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other violation, or take such other actions as Debtor shall deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Intellectual Property. Debtor shall furnish to Lender from time to time upon its request statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Intellectual Property and Licenses and such other reports in connection with the Intellectual Property and Licenses as Lender may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail and promptly upon request of Lender, following receipt by Lender of any such statements, schedules or reports, Debtor shall modify this Agreement by amending Schedule II hereto, as the case may be, to include any Intellectual Property and License, as the case may be, which is or hereafter becomes part of the Collateral under this Agreement and shall execute and authenticate such documents and do such acts as shall be necessary or, in the reasonable judgment of Lender, desirable to subject such Intellectual Property and Licenses to the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Debtor may not abandon, surrender or otherwise permit any Intellectual Property to become abandoned, cancelled or invalid without the prior written consent of Lender, and if any Intellectual Property is infringed, misappropriated, diluted or otherwise violated in any material respect by a third party, Debtor will take such reasonable action as Lender shall deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Intellectual Property.

14

(ii) In no event shall Debtor, either itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, file an application for the registration of any Patent, Trademark or Copyright or the United States Copyright Office or the United States Patent and Trademark Office, as applicable, or in any similar office or agency of the United States or any country or any political subdivision thereof unless it gives Lender prior written notice thereof. Upon request of Lender, Debtor shall execute, authenticate and deliver any and all assignments, agreements, instruments, documents and papers as Lender may reasonably request to evidence Lender’s security interest hereunder in such Intellectual Property and the General Intangibles of Debtor relating thereto or represented thereby, and Debtor hereby appoints Lender its attorney-in-fact to execute and/or authenticate and file all such writings for the foregoing purposes, all acts of such attorney being hereby ratified and confirmed, and such power (being coupled with an interest) shall be irrevocable until all Obligations are Paid in Full.

(i) Pledged Accounts .

(A) Upon the request of Lender, Debtor shall cause each bank and other financial institution which maintains a Controlled Account (each a “Controlled Account Bank”) to execute and deliver to Lender, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, a Controlled Account Agreement with respect to such Controlled Account, duly executed by Debtor and such Controlled Account Bank, pursuant to which such Controlled Account Bank among other things shall irrevocably agree, with respect to such Controlled Account, that (i) at any time after Debtor or Lender shall have notified such Controlled Account Bank that an Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, such Controlled Account Bank will comply with any and all instructions originated by Lender directing the disposition of the funds in such Controlled Account without further consent by Debtor, (ii) such Controlled Account Bank shall waive, subordinate or agree not to exercise any rights of setoff or recoupment or any other claim against the applicable Controlled Account other than for payment of its service fees and other charges directly related to the administration of such Controlled Account and for returned checks or other items of payment, (iii) at any time after Debtor or Lender shall have notified such Controlled Account Bank that an Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, with respect to each such Controlled Account, such Controlled Account Bank shall not comply with any instructions, directions or orders of any form with respect to such Controlled Accounts other than instructions, directions or orders originated by Lender, (iv) all funds deposited by Debtor with such Controlled Account Bank shall be subject to a perfected, first priority security interest in favor of Lender, and (v) upon receipt of written notice from Lender during the continuance of an Event of Default, such Controlled Account Bank shall immediately send to Lender by wire transfer (to such account as Lender shall specify, or in such other manner as Lender shall direct) all such funds and other items held by it. Debtor shall not create or maintain any Pledged Account without the prior written consent of Lender and complying with the terms of this Agreement.

(B) If at any time after the Date of this Agreement and after Lender has requested Debtor to enter into one or more Controlled Account Agreements as contemplated by Subsection 5(i)(A) above, the average daily balance of any Account that is not subject to a Controlled Account Agreement exceeds $5,000 during any calendar month (including the calendar month in which the Date of this Agreement occurs), Debtor shall, either (x) within two (2) Business Days following such date, transfer to a Controlled Account an amount sufficient to reduce the total aggregate amount of the cash in such Account to an amount not in excess of $5,000 or (y) within 21 calendar days following the last day of such calendar month, deliver to Lender a Controlled Account Agreement with respect to such Account, duly executed by Debtor and the depositary bank in which such Account is maintained.

(C) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 5(i)(B) above, and without limiting any of the foregoing, if at any time on or after the date that is twenty-one (21) calendar days following the Date of this Agreement, subject to Lender having requested Debtor to enter into one or more Controlled Account Agreements as contemplated by Subsection 5(i)(A) above, the total aggregate amount of the cash of Debtor and any of its Subsidiaries, in the aggregate, that is not held in a Controlled Account exceeds $25,000 (the “Maximum Free Cash Amount”), Debtor shall within two (2) Business Days following such date, either (x) transfer to a Controlled Account an amount sufficient to reduce the total aggregate amount of the cash that is not held in a Controlled Account to an amount not in excess of the Maximum Free Cash Amount or (y) deliver to Lender a Controlled Account Agreement with respect to such Account (or Accounts), duly executed by Debtor and the depositary bank in which such Account (or Accounts) is maintained, as necessary to reduce the total aggregate amount of the cash that is not held in a Controlled Account to an amount not in excess of the Maximum Free Cash Amount.

This appointment as attorney-in-fact is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable until all of the Obligations are Paid in Full.

(iii) Any certificates of title or ownership delivered pursuant to the terms hereof shall be accompanied by odometer statements for each motor vehicle covered thereby.

(iv) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon the request of Debtor, Lender shall execute and deliver to Debtor such instruments as Debtor shall reasonably request to remove the notation of Lender as lienholder on any certificate of title for any motor vehicle; provided, however, that any such instruments shall be delivered, and the release effective, only upon receipt by Lender of a certificate from Debtor stating that such motor vehicle is to be sold or has suffered a casualty loss (with title thereto in such case passing to the casualty insurance company therefor in settlement of the claim for such loss) and the amount that Debtor will receive as sale proceeds or insurance proceeds. Any proceeds of such sale or casualty loss shall be paid to Lender hereunder immediately upon receipt, to be applied to the Obligations then outstanding.

Debtor agrees that the pledge of the shares of Capital Stock acquired by Debtor of a Foreign Subsidiary may be supplemented by one or more separate pledge agreements, deeds of pledge, share charges, or other similar agreements or instruments, executed and delivered by Debtor in favor of Lender, which pledge agreements will provide for the pledge of such shares of Capital Stock in accordance with the laws of the applicable foreign jurisdiction. With respect to such shares of Capital Stock, Lender may, at any time and from time to time, in its sole discretion, take actions in such foreign jurisdictions that will result in the perfection of the Lien created in such shares of Capital Stock.

(c) For the purpose of enabling Lender to exercise rights and remedies hereunder, at such time as Lender shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, Debtor hereby grants to Lender upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, to the extent assignable, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to Debtor) to use, assign, license or sublicense any Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by Debtor, wherever the same may be located, including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout thereof. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, but subject to the provisions of Section 5(g) and Section 5(h) hereof, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Debtor may exploit, use, enjoy, protect, license, sublicense, assign, sell, dispose of or take other actions with respect to the Intellectual Property in the ordinary course of its business. In furtherance of the foregoing, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Lender shall from time to time, upon the request of Debtor, execute and deliver any instruments, certificates or other documents, in the form so requested, which Debtor shall have certified are appropriate (in Debtor’s judgment) to allow it to take any action permitted above (including relinquishment of the license provided pursuant to this clause (c) as to any Intellectual Property). Further, upon the Payment in Full of all of the Obligations, Lender (subject to Section 10(e) hereof) shall release and reassign to Debtor all of Lender’s right, title and interest in and to the Intellectual Property, and the Licenses, all without recourse, representation or warranty whatsoever. The exercise of rights and remedies hereunder by Lender shall not terminate the rights of the holders of any licenses or sublicenses theretofore granted by Debtor in accordance with the second sentence of this clause (c). Debtor hereby releases Lender from any claims, causes of action and demands at any time arising out of or with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by Lender under the powers of attorney granted herein other than actions taken or omitted to be taken through Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final determination of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(d) If Debtor fails to perform any agreement or obligation contained herein, Lender may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement or obligation, in the name of Debtor or Lender, and the expenses of Lender incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Debtor pursuant to Section 8 hereof and shall be secured by the Collateral.

(e) The powers conferred on Lender hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, Lender shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral.

18

(f) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding (i) Debtor shall remain liable under the Licenses and otherwise with respect to any of the Collateral to the extent set forth therein to perform all of its obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (ii) the exercise by Lender of any of its rights hereunder shall not release Debtor from any of its obligations under the Licenses or otherwise in respect of the Collateral, and (iii) Lender shall not have any obligation or liability by reason of this Agreement under the Licenses or with respect to any of the other Collateral, nor shall Lender be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of Debtor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder.

(g) As long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and until written notice shall be given to the applicable Debtor:

(i) Debtor shall have the right, from time to time, to vote and give consents with respect to the Pledged Equity, or any part thereof for all purposes not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast, and no consent shall be given or action taken, which would have the effect of impairing the position or interest of Lender in respect of the Pledged Equity or which would authorize, effect or consent to:

(A) the dissolution or liquidation, in whole or in part, of a Pledged Entity;

(B) the consolidation or merger of a Pledged Entity with any other Person;

(C) the sale, disposition or encumbrance of all or substantially all of the assets of a Pledged Entity, except for Liens in favor of Lender;

(D) any change in the authorized number of shares, the stated capital or the authorized share capital of a Pledged Entity or the issuance of any additional shares of its Capital Stock; or

(E) the alteration of the voting rights with respect to the Capital Stock of a Pledged Entity.

(h)   (i)   As long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Debtor shall be entitled, from time to time, to collect and receive for its own use all cash dividends and interest paid in respect of the Pledged Equity other than any and all: (A) dividends and interest paid or payable other than in cash in respect of any Pledged Equity, and instruments and other property received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of, or in exchange for, any Pledged Equity; (B) dividends and other distributions paid or payable in cash in respect of any Pledged Equity in connection with a partial or total liquidation or dissolution or in connection with a reduction of capital, capital surplus or paid-in capital of a Pledged Entity; and (C) cash paid, payable or otherwise distributed, in respect of principal of, or in redemption of, or in exchange for, any Pledged Equity; provided, however, that until actually paid all rights to such distributions shall remain subject to the Lien created by this Agreement; and

(ii) all dividends and interest (other than such cash dividends and interest as are permitted to be paid to Debtor in accordance with clause (i) above) and all other distributions in respect of any of the Pledged Equity, whenever paid or made, shall be delivered to Lender to hold as Pledged Equity and shall, if received by Debtor, be received in trust for the benefit of Lender, be segregated from the other property or funds of Debtor, and be forthwith delivered to Lender as Pledged Equity in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement).

19

SECTION 7. Remedies Upon Event of Default; Application of Proceeds. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

(a) Lender may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to any other rights and remedies provided for herein, or otherwise available to it, all of the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the Code (whether or not the Code applies to the affected Collateral), and also may (i) take absolute control of the Collateral, including, without limitation, transfer into Lender’s name or into the name of its nominee or nominees (to the extent Lender has not theretofore done so) and thereafter receive all payments made thereon, give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect thereof and otherwise act with respect thereto as though it were the outright owner thereof, (ii) require Debtor to, and Debtor hereby agrees that it will at its expense and upon request of Lender forthwith, assemble all or part of its respective Collateral as directed by Lender and make it available to Lender at a place or places to be designated by Lender that is reasonably convenient to both parties, and Lender may enter into and occupy any premises owned or leased by Debtor where the Collateral or any part thereof is located or assembled for a reasonable period in order to effectuate Lender’s rights and remedies hereunder or under law, without obligation to Debtor in respect of such occupation, and (iii) without notice except as specified below and without any obligation to prepare or process the Collateral for sale, (A) sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale (including, without limitation, by credit bid), at any of Lender’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as Lender may deem commercially reasonable and/or (B) lease, license or dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof upon such terms as Lender may deem commercially reasonable. Debtor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or any other disposition of its respective Collateral shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days’ notice to Debtor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other disposition of its respective Collateral is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. Lender shall not be obligated to make any sale or other disposition of any Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Lender may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Debtor hereby waives any claims against Lender arising by reason of the fact that the price at which its respective Collateral may have been sold at a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Obligations, even if Lender accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree, and waives all rights that Debtor may have to require that all or any part of such Collateral be marshaled upon any sale (public or private) thereof. Debtor hereby acknowledges that (i) any such sale of its respective Collateral by Lender shall be made without warranty, (ii) Lender may specifically disclaim any warranties of title, possession, quiet enjoyment or the like, and (iii) such actions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above shall not adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any such sale of Collateral. In addition to the foregoing, (1) upon written notice to Debtor from Lender after and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Debtor shall cease any use of the Intellectual Property or any trademark, patent or copyright similar thereto for any purpose described in such notice; (2) Lender may, at any time and from time to time after and during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon 10 days’ prior notice to Debtor, license, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or non-exclusive basis, any of the Intellectual Property, throughout the universe for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as Lender shall in its sole discretion determine; and (3) Lender may, at any time, pursuant to the authority granted in Section 6 hereof or otherwise (such authority being effective upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default), execute and deliver on behalf of Debtor, one or more instruments of assignment of the Intellectual Property (or any application or registration thereof), in form suitable for filing, recording or registration in any country.

(b) Any cash held by Lender as Collateral and all Cash Proceeds received by Lender in respect of any sale or disposition of or collection from, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied as follows: first, to pay any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to Lender (including those described in Section 8 hereof); second, to pay any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due, on a pro rata basis; third to pay interest due under the Note, on a pro rata basis; fourth, to pay or prepay principal in respect of the Note, whether or not then due, owing, on a pro rata basis; fifth, to pay or prepay any other Obligations, whether or not then due, in such order and manner as Lender shall elect. Any surplus of such cash or Cash Proceeds held by Lender and remaining after the Payment in Full of all of the Obligations shall be paid over to whomsoever shall be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct.

20

(c) In the event that the proceeds of any such sale, disposition, collection or realization are insufficient to pay all amounts to which Lender is legally entitled, Debtor shall be liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon at the rate specified in the Note for interest on overdue principal thereof or such other rate as shall be fixed by applicable law, together with the costs of collection and the reasonable fees, costs, expenses and other charges of any attorneys employed by Lender to collect such deficiency.

(d) To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on Lender to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, Debtor acknowledges and agrees that it is commercially reasonable for Lender (i) to fail to incur expenses deemed significant by Lender to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to transform raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as Debtor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure Lender against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to Lender a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by Lender, to obtain the services of brokers, investment bankers, consultants, attorneys and other professionals to assist Lender in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Debtor acknowledges that the purpose of this section is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by Lender would be commercially reasonable in Lender’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by Lender shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this section. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this section shall be construed to grant any rights to Debtor or to impose any duties on Lender that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this section.

(e) Lender shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including, but not limited to, this Agreement and the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of Lender’s rights hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising. To the extent that Debtor lawfully may, Debtor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshaling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of Lender’s rights under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, Debtor hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.

21

SECTION 8. Indemnity and Expenses.

(a) Debtor agrees to defend, protect, indemnify and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, obligations, penalties, fees, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees, costs, expenses, and disbursements of such Person’s counsel) to the extent that they arise out of or otherwise result from this Agreement or the Note (including, without limitation, enforcement of this Agreement and the Note), except to the extent resulting from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction no longer subject to appeal.

(b) Debtor agrees to pay to Lender upon demand the amount of any and all costs and expenses, including the reasonable fees, costs, expenses and disbursements of counsel for Lender and of any experts and agents (including, without limitation, any collateral trustee which may act as agent of Lender), which Lender may incur in connection with (i) the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, recordation, administration, amendment, waiver or other modification or termination of this Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any Collateral, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of Lender hereunder, or (iv) the failure by Debtor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.

SECTION 9. Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly delivered (a) on the date of actual delivery if delivered personally (with written confirmation of receipt), (b) four Business Days after being sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, (c) one Business Day after being sent for next Business Day delivery, fees prepaid, via a reputable nationwide overnight courier service, or (d) on the date of transmission by email (or the first Business Day following such transmission if the date of such transmission is not a Business Day), in each case to the intended recipient as set forth below (or to such other address as such party shall have specified in a written notice duly delivered to the other parties hereto):

(b) No failure on the part of Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right reasonably hereunder or under the Note shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right reasonably preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights and remedies of Lender provided herein and in the Note are cumulative and are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies provided by law.

(c) Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining portions hereof or thereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

(d) This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until the earlier of Payment in Full of the Obligations or forgiveness of the Note pursuant to Section 1 thereof, and (ii) be binding on Debtor and all other Persons who become bound as debtor to this Agreement in accordance with Section 9-203(d) of the Code and shall inure, together with all rights and remedies of Lender hereunder, to the benefit of Lender and its permitted successors, transferees and assigns.

Upon any such assignment or transfer, all references in this Agreement to Lender shall mean the assignee of Lender. None of the rights or obligations of Debtor hereunder may be assigned or otherwise transferred without the prior written consent of Lender, and any such assignment or transfer without such consent of Lender shall be null and void ab initio.

23

(ii) Debtor hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or under any other Transaction Document or with any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim, defense or objection that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under Section 9 hereof and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or operate to preclude Lender from bringing suit or taking other legal action against Debtor in any other jurisdiction to collect on Debtor’s obligations or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of Lender.

(iii) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL, ETC. DEBTOR AND LENDER IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT THEY MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREE NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT, OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

(iv) Debtor irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action, suit or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, indirect, incidental, punitive or consequential damages.
