30

On or before the Business Day following the date on which the Company announces its financial results for the preceding fiscal quarter, the Company shall deliver to each Investor a certificate signed by a duly authorized officer of the Company, certifying that the Company has complied in all material respects with the covenants set forth in Section 4.6(b) as of the last day of such fiscal quarter and, if the Company did not so comply, describing in reasonable detail the circumstances of its failure to comply.

4.7 Reservation of Company Common Shares. The Company shall, on the Convertibility Date, have authorized and reserved for issuance to the Investors free from any preemptive rights, and shall keep available at all times thereafter during which any Notes are outstanding, a number of Company Common Shares (the “Reserved Amount”) that, on such Convertibility Date, is not less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the number of Company Common Shares issuable upon conversion of all of the Notes outstanding on the Convertibility Date, without regard to any limitation or restriction on such conversion that may be set forth in the Notes. The Reserved Amount shall be allocated among the Investors in accordance with each Investor’s Pro Rata Share. In the event that an Investor shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such Investor’s Notes, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such transferor’s Reserved Amount. Any portion of the Reserved Amount allocated to any Investor or other Person which no longer holds any Notes shall be reallocated to the remaining Investors pro rata based on the number of the Registrable Securities held by such Investors at such time. In the event that the Reserved Amount is insufficient at any time to cover one hundred percent (100%) of the Registrable Securities issuable upon the conversion of the Notes (without regard to any restriction on such conversion), the Company shall take such action (including without limitation holding a meeting of its shareholders) to increase the Reserved Amount to cover one hundred ten percent (110%) of such Registrable Securities, such increase to be effective not later than the sixtieth (60th) day (or ninetieth (90th) day, in the event shareholder approval is required for such increase) following the Company’s receipt of written notice of such deficiency from any Investor. The Company shall own, beneficially and of record, and shall set aside for delivery to the Investors upon the exchange of the Notes, free and clear of all Liens, at all times from the date on which a Qualified IPO occurs through the earlier of (i) the Maturity Date and (ii) the date on which no Notes remain outstanding, a sufficient number of Games Common Shares and Software Common Shares, as the case may be, in order to satisfy the exchange of the Notes in full for such Common Shares (without regard to any restrictions that may apply to such exchange) (the “Exchange Share Reserved Amount”). The Exchange Share Reserved Amount shall be allocated among the Investors in accordance with each Investor’s Pro Rata Share, and otherwise in accordance with the allocation of the Reserved Amount among the Investors as described in this Section 4.7.

4.8 Certain Taxes. The Company agrees to pay all stamp, documentary or similar taxes or fees which may be payable in respect of the execution and delivery or the enforcement of this Agreement or the execution and delivery (but not the transfer) or the enforcement of any of the Notes or of any amendment of, or waiver or consent under or with respect to, this Agreement or of any of the Notes, and to pay any value added tax due and payable in respect of reimbursement of costs and expenses by the Company pursuant to this Section 4.8, and will hold harmless each Holder to the extent permitted by applicable Governmental Requirements against any loss or liability resulting from nonpayment or delay in payment of any such tax or fee required to be paid by the Company hereunder.

31

4.9 Indemnification.

(a) The Company will indemnify and hold each Investor and its directors, managers, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees and agents (each, an “Investor Party”) harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation that any such Investor Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents.

(b) Each Investor will severally (and not jointly) indemnify and hold the Company and its directors, managers, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees and agents and each Subsidiary and its directors, managers, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees and agents (each, a “Company Party”) harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation that any such Company Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by such Investor in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents. In any such event, the aggregate indemnification obligation of an Investor shall not exceed the Purchase Price delivered by such Investor in connection with its purchase of Securities hereunder.

(c) For purposes of this Section 4.9(c), a party seeking indemnification pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above is referred to as an “Indemnified Party” and the party from whom indemnification is sought is referred to as an “Indemnifying Party.” If any action shall be brought against any Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Agreement, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party in writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own choosing. Any Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party except to the extent that (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Indemnifying Party in writing, (ii) the Indemnifying Party has failed after a reasonable period of time following such Indemnified Party’s written request that it do so, to assume such defense and to employ counsel or (iii) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of such separate counsel, a material conflict on any material issue between the position of the Indemnifying Party and the position of such Indemnified Party. An Indemnifying Party will not be liable to any Indemnified Party under this Agreement (i) for any settlement by an Indemnified Party effected without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) or (ii) to the extent, but only to the extent that a loss, claim, damage or liability is the result of such Indemnified Party’s wrongful actions or omissions or gross negligence or such Indemnified Party’s breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by such Indemnified Party in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents.

32

4.10 Board Observation. During the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the earlier of (i) the Termination Date and (ii) the consummation of a Qualified IPO by either Software or Games, Evolution shall have the right to appoint a designee to attend and observe (in person or via teleconference) any and all meetings and other similar proceedings of the Board Of Directors (or any committee thereof) of Software and/or Games. During such period, each of Software and Games shall provide Evolution reasonable advance notice of each such meeting and/or proceeding, which notice shall not contain any material non-public information, it being acknowledged and agreed that notice provided to Evolution concurrently with notice to members of the Board of Directors (or any committee thereof) of Software or Games, as the case may be, shall constitute reasonable advance notice. Evolution shall be presumed not to have exercised its board observation rights with respect to any such meeting or proceeding unless it notifies the Company of its affirmative exercise of such rights as to such meeting or proceeding. Evolution’s determination not to exercise its board observation rights in respect of any meeting or proceeding of the Board of Directors (or any committee thereof) of Software or Games shall not impair its rights to attend any such meeting or proceeding thereafter. Upon Evolution’s request, the Company shall notify Evolution prior to any such board meeting or proceeding whether any information to be discussed at such meeting or proceeding will constitute material non-public information; upon the receipt of material non-public information as a result of the exercise of its board observation rights, Evolution shall comply with all applicable Governmental Requirements regarding the use of such information.

4.11 Information Rights. Prior to a Qualified IPO of Software or Games, the Company shall promptly deliver upon written request, to each Investor holding at least $10 million in aggregate principal amount of Notes at the time of such request annual and quarterly financial statements, quarterly budgets and other information reasonably requested by such Investor with respect to Software and Games, as applicable; provided, however, that if the Company determines that any such information constitutes material non-public information, it will so notify the Investor and will not deliver such information to the Investor unless it receives the Investor’s prior written consent to such delivery. To the extent the Company delivers any material non-public information to any Investor following receipt of the requesting Investor’s written consent to such delivery, such Investor shall comply with all applicable Governmental Requirements regarding the use of such information.

4.12 Participation Right.

(a) If any of the Company, Software or Games (the “Issuer”) intends, directly or indirectly, to offer, sell, grant any option to purchase, or otherwise dispose of (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition of) any of its equity or equity equivalent securities, including without limitation any debt, preferred stock or other instrument or security that is, at any time during its life and under any circumstances, convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for its Common Shares or securities convertible or exchangeable into its Common Shares (any such offer, sale, grant, disposition or announcement being referred to as a “Subsequent Placement”) at any time prior to a Qualified IPO, the Issuer shall have first complied with this Section 4.12, provided that no Issuer shall be required to comply with this Section 4.12 in connection with the Permitted Software Debt and the Investors shall have no rights under this Section 4.12 with respect to such Permitted Software Debt.

33

(b) The Company shall deliver to each Investor a written notice (the “Offer Notice”) of any proposed or intended issuance or sale (the “Offer”) of the securities being offered (the “Offered Securities”) in a Subsequent Placement, which Offer Notice shall (w) identify and describe the Offered Securities, (x) describe the price and other terms upon which they are to be issued or sold, and the number or amount of the Offered Securities to be issued or sold, (y) identify the persons or entities (if known) to which or with which the Offered Securities are to be offered, issued or sold and (z) offer to issue and sell to such Investors an aggregate amount representing thirty five percent (35%) of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes purchased by all of the Investors at the Closing, to be allocated among such Investors (a) based on such Investor’s Pro Rata Share (the “Basic Amount”), and (b) with respect to each Investor that elects to purchase its Basic Amount, any additional portion of the Offered Securities attributable to the Basic Amounts of other Investors as such Investor shall indicate it will purchase or acquire should the other Investors subscribe for less than their Basic Amounts (the “Undersubscription Amount”).

(c) To accept an Offer, in whole or in part, such Investor must deliver a written notice to the Company prior to the end of the second (2nd) Business Day by 5:00 p.m New York City time after such Investor’s receipt of the Offer Notice containing the final definitive terms of the Subsequent Placement (the “Offer Period”), setting forth the portion of such Investor’s Basic Amount that such Investor elects to purchase and, if such Investor shall elect to purchase all of its Basic Amount, the Undersubscription Amount, if any, that such Investor elects to purchase (in either case, the “Notice of Acceptance”). If the Basic Amounts subscribed for by all Investors are less than the total of all of the Basic Amounts, then each Investor who has set forth an Undersubscription Amount in its Notice of Acceptance shall be entitled to purchase, in addition to the Basic Amounts subscribed for, the Undersubscription Amount it has subscribed for; provided, however, that if the Undersubscription Amounts subscribed for exceed the difference between the total of all the Basic Amounts and the Basic Amounts subscribed for (the “Available Undersubscription Amount”), each Investor who has subscribed for any Undersubscription Amount shall be entitled to purchase only that portion of the Available Undersubscription Amount as the Basic Amount of such Investor bears to the total Basic Amounts of all Investors that have subscribed for Undersubscription Amounts, subject to rounding by the Company to the extent its deems reasonably necessary.

(d) If the aggregate dollar amount of the Subsequent Placement exceeds the amount purchasable by the Investors hereunder or the Investors, collectively, do not elect to purchase the entire amount of the Subsequent Placement which may be purchased by such Investors pursuant to this Section 4.12, the Issuer may offer and sell the securities to which the Investors were entitled to purchase hereunder, or the securities not purchasable by the Investors hereunder, as the case may be, to a third party (which may include any Investor), provided that such sale must occur within thirty (30) days of the Subsequent Placement Closing Date and on the same terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Notice. Any such sale made after such thirty-day period, or on terms or conditions different than the terms set forth in the Offer Note, must again be offered to the Investors in accordance with Section 4.12 above. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that aggregate purchase price for all securities proposed to be issued in a Subsequent Placement by an Issuer is less than 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes issued to all of the Investors at the Closing, the dollar amount of such securities to which each Investor is entitled to purchase hereunder shall be proportionately reduced. Each purchase of securities by Investors pursuant to this Section 4.12 shall take place on the Subsequent Placement Closing Date.

34

Section 4.13. Listing. The Company shall promptly secure the listing of all of the Registrable Securities to be included on the Company Registration Statement (each as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) upon each national securities exchange and automated quotation system, if any, upon which the Company Common Shares are then listed (subject to official notice of issuance) and shall maintain, in accordance with the Notes, such listing of all Registrable Securities from time to time issuable under the terms of the Transaction Documents. The Company shall maintain the Company Common Stock’s authorization for quotation on the Principal Market or on any Eligible Market (as defined in the Notes). Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall take any action which would be reasonably expected to result in the delisting or suspension of the Company Common Stock on the Principal Market or on any Eligible Market, as applicable.

After each of a Games Exchange Date and a Software Exchange Date (each as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) Games and Software, as applicable, shall promptly secure the listing of all of the Registrable Securities to be included upon each of the Games Registration Statement and the Software Registration Statement, as applicable, upon each national securities exchange and automated quotation system, if any, upon which the Games Common Shares or Software Common Shares, as applicable, are then listed (subject to official notice of issuance) and shall maintain, in accordance with the Notes, such listing of all such applicable Registrable Securities from time to time issuable under the terms of the Transaction Documents. Games and Software, as applicable, shall maintain the Games Common Shares’ or Software Common Shares’, as applicable, authorization for quotation on such Eligible Market through and including the expiration of the applicable Registration Period (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement). Neither Games nor Software, as applicable, nor any of their respective Subsidiaries shall take any action which would be reasonably expected to result in the delisting or suspension of the Games Common Shares or Software Common Shares, as applicable, on the such Eligible Market prior to the expiration of the applicable Registration Period. Games and Software shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligations under this Section 4.13.

36

5.2.1 the representations and warranties of such Investor set forth in this Agreement and in the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such date as if made on such date (except that, to the extent that any such representation or warranty relates to a particular date, such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all material respects as of that particular date);

5.2.5 such Investor shall have provided the Company with any forms reasonably requested by the Company prior to the Closing to establish that no payments to such Investor under the Notes will be subject to withholding tax in any taxing jurisdictions.

6. MISCELLANEOUS.

6.1 Survival; Severability. The representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities made by the parties herein and in the other Transaction Documents shall survive the Closing notwithstanding any due diligence investigation made by or on behalf of the party seeking to rely thereon. In the event that any provision of this Agreement becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect without said provision; provided that in such case the parties shall negotiate in good faith to replace such provision with a new provision which is not illegal, unenforceable or void, as long as such new provision does not materially change the economic benefits of this Agreement to the parties.

6.2 Successors and Assigns. The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall inure

37

to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective successors and permitted assigns of the parties. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and permitted assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. Following the Closing Date, an Investor may assign its rights and obligations hereunder in connection with any private sale or transfer of the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof, as long as, as a condition precedent to such transfer, the transferee executes an acknowledgment agreeing to be bound by the applicable provisions of this Agreement, in which case the term “Investor” shall be deemed to refer to such transferee as though such transferee were an original signatory hereto. The Company may not assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement.

6.3 No Reliance. Each party acknowledges that (i) it has such knowledge in business and financial matters as to be fully capable of evaluating this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, (ii) it is not relying on any advice or representation of any other party in connection with entering into this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or such transactions (other than the representations made in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents), (iii) it has not received from any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document any assurance or guarantee as to the merits (whether legal, regulatory, tax, financial or otherwise) of entering into this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder, and (iv) it has consulted with its own legal, regulatory, tax, business, investment, financial and accounting advisors to the extent that it has deemed necessary, and has entered into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents based on its own independent judgment and, if applicable, on the advice of such advisors, and not on any view (whether written or oral) expressed by any other party.

6.4 Independent Nature of Investors’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Investor hereunder are several and not joint with the obligations of the other Investors hereunder, and no Investor shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Investor hereunder. The Company acknowledges and agrees that nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or a “group” as described in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, or create a presumption that the Investors are in any way acting in concert with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Investor has been represented by its own separate counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation rights arising out of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, individually, and shall not be required to join any other Investor as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

6.5 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. (a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the internal laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within the State of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City and County of New York for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or any other Transaction

38

Document or in connection herewith or therewith 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 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 in effect for notices to it under this Agreement 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.

(b) EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY THAT MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES AND, THEREFORE, EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE BREACH, TERMINATION OR VALIDITY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (II) EACH SUCH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (III) EACH SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (IV) EACH SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 6.5(b).

6.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement may be executed and delivered by facsimile transmission.

6.7 Headings. The headings used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement.

6.8 Notices. Any notice, demand or request required or permitted to be given by the Company or an Investor pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed delivered (i) when delivered personally or by verifiable facsimile transmission, unless such delivery is made on a day that is not a Business Day, in which case such delivery will be deemed to be made on the next succeeding Business Day, (ii) on the second Business Day after timely delivery to an internationally recognized overnight courier and (iii) on the Business Day actually received if sent by certified or registered mail (return receipt requested, postage prepaid), addressed as follows:

Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be amended or waived except pursuant to a written instrument executed by the Company and the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding; provided, however, that the Company may amend this Agreement or any term without the consent of any Investor if such amendment is for the sole purpose of: (i) adding to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the Investors; (ii) surrendering any right or power conferred upon the Company; (iii) evidencing the succession of a corporation or other Person to the Company and the assumption by such successor of the covenants and obligations of the Company in this Agreement and the Notes or (iv) correcting a manifest error or supplementing any provision contained herein or

Any waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the written consent or the affirmative vote of each Holder of Notes affected thereby, an amendment or waiver under this Section 6.11 may not reduce the percentage of the principal amount of the outstanding Notes the consent of whose Holders is required for any amendment to this Agreement or the consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver provided for under this Agreement. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Investor to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the Investors.
