The Loan Agreement provides a list of "Event(s) of Default," (See Loan Agreement at pp. 10-12) and pursuant to Section 7.2, that the occurrence of any Event of Default entitles Plaintiff to "declare the Note and Liabilities to be due and payable, whereupon the Notes and all Liabilities shall become immediately due and payable, all without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind."

Defendant provided Plaintiff with false, material representations concerning his ownership interest in at least two assets put forth as security for the Term Loan, in violation of Section 7.1(e) of the Loan Agreement.

Capitalized terms used in this Agreement which arc not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in Article IX. AGREEMENTS In consideration of the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement and of any Term Loan or extensions of credit made to or for the benefit of the Borrower by the Lender, the parties agree as follows: ARTICLE I THE LOAN 1.1 Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lender agrees to loan to the Borrower the aggregate principal amount of Four Million Five Hundred Thousand and no/100 dollars ($4,500,000) (the "Term Loan"). The Term Loan is due on the Term Maturity Date. The Term Loan shall be evidenced by a Note in substantially the form of Exhibit A ("Term Note").

The Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Term Loan, together with Five Hundred Thousand and no/100 dollars ($500,000) in equity from its members, solely to purchase Class A Membership Interests in D3 Capital Club, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. 1.3 Interest Rate (a) Term Loan Interest. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Term Loan at the rate of 20% per annum (the "Applicable Rate"), from the date on which the Term Loan is made until paid in full. 1 DB I/6382003.3 EFTA01092878 (b) Default Interest Rate. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, interest shall accrue on all Liabilities at the per annum rate of five (5) percentage points in excess of the Applicable Rate. Any interest payment, charge, or fee not paid when due shall be added to and become a part of the Liabilities. (c) Interest Computation. All interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year, and actual days elapsed. (d) Maximum Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Financing Agreement, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Term Note and any Financing Agreement shall not exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted by Applicable Law ("maximum rate"). If Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the maximum rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Liabilities or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged or received by Lender exceeds the maximum rate, Lender may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or premium rather than interest; (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof; and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Liabilities hereunder. 1.4 Making Payments. (a) Repayments from Proceeds. To secure the Liabilities, Borrower has pledged to Lender all of its membership interests in D3, whether now owned or hereafter acquired. All proceeds and distributions received by Borrower from D3 or otherwise arising out of or relating to its membership interests in D3 shall be deposited by Borrower in a Designated Deposit Account (as defined below), and applied and paid as follows: (i) first, to payment of the Liabilities until all Liabilities have been paid in full; (ii) second, to the members of Borrower in accordance with Borrower's Operating Agreement. A "Designated Deposit Account" shall mean a deposit account of Borrower, in which Lender has a first priority perfected security interest, and as to which an account control agreement satisfactory to Lender is in place. (b) Payment at Maturity. Any amount of principal or accrued interest outstanding and unpaid on the Term Loan Maturity Date will be payable to the Lender on the Maturity Date in immediately available funds without any offset or counterclaim and free and clear of (and without deduction for) any present or future taxes. (c) Grossup for Taxes. If Borrower shall be required by Applicable Law to withhold or deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any amount payable under this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement, (a) the amount payable to the Lender shall be increased as necessary so that, after making all required withholding or deductions, the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such. withholding or deductions been 2 CM31/63832003.3 EFTA01092879 made, (b) Borrower shall make such withholding or deductions, and (c) Borrower shall pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with Applicable Law. Any sums payable to the Lender pursuant to this Section shall be deemed to constitute Obligations. 1.5 Changes in Current Tax Treatment. If the Lender shall at any time after the date of this Agreement determine in good faith that any change in any applicable law, rule, regulation, or guideline or the administration of any such applicable law, rule, or regulation or guideline promulgated by any governmental authority charged with the administration of such applicable law, rule, or regulation or guideline (whether or not having the force of law) shall in any manner subject the Lender or the Term Loan to any tax not otherwise applicable as of the date of this Agreement, or impose or make applicable any disallowance, tax, or other change in the taxation of the interest on the Term Loan (other than a change in the general income tax rate of the Lender), and the Lender determines in good faith that the result of any of the foregoing will be to reduce the net after-tax yield to the Lender on the Term Loan, then the interest rate on the Term Loan, as applicable, shall be increased to the rate that will compensate the Lender for the reduction. The calculation by the Lender of the appropriate rate shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If the Lender makes a claim for additional interest under this Agreement, the Lender shall provide to the Borrower a certificate setting forth the claim and the basis for such claim. The rate increase shall be effective as of the date of the applicable event, and any additional unpaid interest shall be paid by the Borrower together with the next regularly-scheduled payment of interest following the giving of the notice of the claim by the Lender.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof, the Secured Party may, in its sole discretion, at any time or times, and without prior notice to the Grantor, notify any or all Account Debtors that the Accounts have been assigned to the Secured Party and that the Secured Party has a security interest in the Accounts. The Secured Party may direct any or all Account Debtors to make all payments upon the Accounts directly to the Secured Party. The Secured Party shall furnish the Grantor with a copy of the notice. (b) The Secured Party hereby authorizes Grantor to collect Grantor's Receivables, and the Secured Party may curtail or terminate such authority at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. If required by the Secured Party at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any payments of Receivables, when collected by Grantor, (i) shall be forthwith (and, in any event, within 2 business days) deposited by Grantor in the exact form received, duly indorsed by Grantor to the Secured Party if required, in a collateral account maintained under the sole dominion and control of the Secured Party, subject to withdrawal by the Secured Party for the account of the Secured Party as provided herein or in the Lockbox Agreement, and (ii) until so turned over, shall be held by Grantor in trust for the Secured Party, segregated from other funds of Grantor. Each such deposit of Proceeds of Receivables shall be accompanied by a report identifying in reasonable detail the nature and source of the payments included in the deposit. (c) At any time and from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the Secured Party's request, Grantor shall deliver to the Secured Party all original and other documents evidencing, and relating to, the agreements and transactions which gave rise to the Receivables, including all original orders, invoices and shipping receipts. (d) Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes and empowers the Secured Party, in the Secured Party's sole discretion, at any time that after the occurrence and during the DB1/63831232.2 10 EFTA01092925 continuance of an Event of Default, to assert, either directly or on behalf of Grantor, any claim Grantor may from time to time have against the sellers under or with respect to the Assigned Agreements and to receive and collect any and all damages, awards and other monies resulting therefrom and to apply the same to the Obligations. Grantor hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Secured Party as his true and lawful attorney in fact for the purpose of enabling the Secured Party to assert and collect such claims and to apply such monies in the manner set forth above, which appointment, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until the Secured Obligations have been Paid in Full at which time such Power of Attorney shall terminate. (e) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Grantor shall remain liable in respect of each of the Receivables to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise thereto. Neither the Secured Party nor any Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Secured Party of any payment relating thereto, nor shall the Secured Party be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of Grantor under or pursuant to any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto), to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times. 5.2 Investment Property. (a) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Secured Party shall have given notice to the relevant Grantor of the Secured Party's intent to exercise its corresponding rights pursuant to Section 5.2(b), Grantor shall be permitted to exercise all voting and other rights with respect to the Investment Property; provided, that no vote shall be cast or other right exercised or action taken which could impair the Collateral or which would be inconsistent with or result in any violation of any provision of the Loan Agreement, this Agreement or any other Loan Document. (b) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Secured Party shall give notice of its intent to exercise such rights to the Grantor, (i) the Secured Party shall have the right to receive any and all cash dividends and distributions, payments or other Proceeds paid in respect of the Investment Property and make application thereof to the Obligations in such order as the Secured Party may determine, and (ii) any or all of the Investment Property shall be registered in the name of the Secured Party or its nominee, and the Secured Party or its nominee may thereafter exercise (x) all voting and other rights pertaining to such Investment Property at any meeting of holders of the equity interests of the relevant Issuer or Issuers or otherwise and (y) any and all rights of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to such Investment Property as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Investment Property upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate or other structure of any Issuer, or upon the exercise by Grantor or the Secured Party of any right, privilege or option pertaining to such Investment Property, and in connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Investment Property with any committee, depositary, transfer Secured Party, registrar or other designated agency upon DBI/63831232.2 11 EFTA01092926 such terms and conditions as the Secured Party may determine), all without liability except to account for property actually received by it, but the Secured Party shall have no duty to Grantor to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing. (c) Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer of any Investment Property pledged by Grantor hereunder to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Secured Party in writing that (x) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further instructions from Grantor, and Grantor agrees that each Issuer shall be fully protected in so complying and (ii) unless otherwise expressly permitted hereby, pay any dividends, distributions or other payments with respect to the Investment Property directly to the Secured Party. 5.3 Proceeds to be Turned Over to Secured Party. In addition to the rights of the Secured Party specified in Section 5.1 with respect to payments of Receivables, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, all Proceeds received by Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other cash equivalent items shall be held by Grantor in trust for the Secured Party, segregated from other funds of Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by Grantor, be turned over to the Secured Party in the exact form received by Grantor (duly indorsed by Grantor to the Secured Party, if required). All Proceeds received by the Secured Party hereunder shall be held by the Secured Party in a collateral account maintained under its sole dominion and control. All Proceeds, while held by the Secured Party in any collateral account (or by Grantor in trust for the Secured Party) established pursuant hereto, shall continue to be held as collateral security for the Secured Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in Section 5.5. 5.4 Application of Proceeds. At such intervals as may be agreed upon by the Grantor and the Secured Party, or, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at any time at the Secured Party's election, the Secured Party may apply all or any part of Proceeds from the sale of, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral in payment of the Secured Obligations in such order as the Secured Party shall determine in its discretion. Any part of such funds which the Secured Party elects not so to apply and deems not required as collateral security for the Secured Obligations shall be paid over from time to time by the Secured Party to the applicable Grantor or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same. Any balance of such Proceeds remaining after the Secured Obligations shall have been Paid in Full shall be paid over to the applicable Grantor or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same. 5.5 Code and Other Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Secured Party, on behalf of the Secured Party, may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to them in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Secured Obligations, all rights and remedies of a Secured Party under the UCC or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Secured Party, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, DB1/63831232.2 12 EFTA01092927 appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker's board or office of the Secured Party or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery with assumption of any credit risk. The Secured Party shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in Grantor, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Grantor further agrees, at the Secured Party's request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Secured Party at places which the Secured Party shall reasonably select, whether at Grantor's premises or elsewhere. The Secured Party shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 5.6, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Secured Party hereunder, including reasonable outside attorney costs to the payment in whole or in part of the Secured Obligations, in such order as the Secured Party may elect, and only after such application and after the payment by the Secured Party of any other amount required by any provision of law, need the Secured Party account for the surplus, if any, to Grantor. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Secured Party arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder, except with respect to the Secured Party's or any Secured Party's gross negligence and willful misconduct. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition. 5.6 Waiver; Deficiency. Grantor waives and agrees not to assert any rights or privileges which it may acquire under Section 9-626 of the UCC. Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay the Secured Obligations in full and the reasonable fees and disbursements of any outside attorneys employed by the Secured Party to collect such deficiency. SECTION 6 THE SECURED PARTY. 6.1 Duty of Secured Party. The Secured Party's sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Secured Party deals with similar property for its own account. Neither the Secured Party nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or Secured Party shall be liable for any failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Secured Party hereunder are solely to protect the Secured Party's and the Secured Party' interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Secured Party shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or Secured Party shall be responsible to Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder. D8I/638312321 13 EFTA01092928 6.2 Authority of Secured Party. Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Secured Party under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Secured Party or the exercise or non-exercise by the Secured Party of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as between the Secured Party, be governed by the Loan Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Secured Party and the Grantor, the Secured Party shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as Secured Party for the Secured Party with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and Grantor shall not be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.
