CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
We may make certain statements, including in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or 10-Q, including the information contained in Item 2, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of this 10-Q, and the information incorporated by reference in this 10-Q, that constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal and state securities laws. Forward-looking statements are all statements other than statements of historical fact. We attempt to identify these forward-looking statements by words such as "may," "will," "should," "could," "might," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "target," "goal," "predict," "intend," "potential," "continue," "seek" and other comparable words. Similarly, statements that describe our business strategy, goals, prospects, opportunities, outlook, objectives, plans or intentions are also forward-looking statements. These statements may relate to, but are not limited to, expectations of future operating results or financial performance; expectations regarding the impact on our business of the COVID-19 pandemic and global measures to mitigate the spread of the virus; macroeconomic trends that we expect may influence our business, including any recession resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic; plans for business continuity, financing and capital expenditures; expectations regarding liquidity, customer payments and compliance with financing covenants and other payment obligations; expectations regarding the introduction of new products; effects of restructuring, remote work arrangements and other employment actions; regulatory compliance and expected changes in the regulatory or privacy landscape affecting our business; expected impact of litigation and regulatory proceedings; plans for stabilization, growth and future operations; effects of acquisitions, divestitures and partnerships; as well as assumptions relating to the foregoing.
Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified. These statements are based on expectations and assumptions as of the date of this 10-Q regarding future events and business performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual events or results to be materially different from any future events or results expressed or implied by these statements. These factors include those set forth in the following discussion and within Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of this 10-Q and elsewhere within this report; those identified within Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020; and those identified in other documents that we file from time to time with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC.
We believe that it is important to communicate our future expectations to our investors. However, there may be events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or control and that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations we describe in our forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this 10-Q. You should carefully review the risk factors described in this 10-Q and in other documents that we file from time to time with the SEC. Except as required by applicable law, including the rules and regulations of the SEC, we undertake no obligation, and expressly disclaim any duty, to publicly update or revise forward-looking statements, whether as a result of any new information, future events or otherwise. Although we believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date of this 10-Q, our statements are not guarantees of future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements, and actual outcomes and results may differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, any of our statements.

COMSCORE, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.Organization
comScore, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, "Comscore" or the "Company"), headquartered in Reston, Virginia, is a global information and analytics company that measures audiences, consumer behavior and advertising across media platforms.
Operating segments are defined as components of a business that can earn revenues and incur expenses for which discrete financial information is available that is evaluated on a regular basis by the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"). The Company's CODM is its principal executive officer, who decides how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company has one operating segment. A single management team reports to the CODM, who manages the entire business. The Company's CODM reviews consolidated results of operations to make decisions, allocate resources and assess performance and does not evaluate the profit or loss from any separate geography or product line.
Uses and Sources of Liquidity and Management's Plans
The Company's primary need for liquidity is to fund working capital requirements and capital expenditures of its business. The Company has secured the following long-term financing in order to increase its available working capital:
During 2018, the Company entered into certain agreements with funds affiliated with or managed by Starboard Value LP (collectively, "Starboard"), pursuant to which the Company issued and sold to Starboard a total of $204.0 million in senior secured convertible notes as well as warrants to purchase shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock") in exchange for $100.0 million in cash and 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock. For additional information, refer to Footnote 4, Long-term Debt.
On June 26, 2019, the Company issued 2,728,513 shares of Common Stock and four series of warrants in a private placement to CVI Investments, Inc. ("CVI") in exchange for gross cash proceeds of $20.0 million. On October 14, 2019, the Company issued 2,728,513 shares of Common Stock to CVI upon exercise by CVI of the Series C warrant. For additional information, refer to Footnote 5, Stockholders' Equity.
On December 31, 2019, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Rentrak B.V., entered into an agreement with several third parties (collectively the "Noteholder") for a secured term note (the "Secured Term Note") in exchange for gross proceeds of $13.0 million. The Secured Term Note matures on December 31, 2021, is cash collateralized, and has an annual interest rate of 9.75% that is payable monthly in arrears. For additional information, refer to Footnote 4, Long-term Debt.
As of June 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with its covenants under the senior secured convertible notes and the Secured Term Note, inclusive of the Company's restricted cash balances.
The COVID-19 pandemic and related government mandates and restrictions have had a significant impact on the media, advertising and entertainment industries in which the Company operates. To date, the COVID-19 pandemic has had some impact on the Company's business, including with respect to the timing of executing new or renewal contracts, the impact of closed movie theaters on the Company's customers, customer payment delays and requests to modify contractual payment terms. These conditions have negatively impacted the Company's liquidity, net loss, and cash flows to some extent and are expected to continue to have an impact in future periods. In addition, the spread of COVID-19 has led to disruption and volatility in global capital and credit markets, which, depending on future developments, could impact the Company's ability to access capital resources on terms acceptable to the Company or allowable under its current financing arrangements, or at all. Liquidity could also be negatively affected by a decrease in demand for the Company's products and services or by additional losses from operations, whether related to the COVID-19 pandemic or otherwise. While the Company has taken, and continues to take, actions to reduce costs and mitigate the impact of COVID-19, these steps may not be successful or adequate to offset declines in cash collections. If the Company's efforts to manage costs are not sufficient, or if cash collection efforts are further impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company may not be able to maintain compliance with the affirmative and negative covenants in its senior secured convertible notes and Secured Term Note or to meet its financial obligations to vendors or others.

Table of Contents

On March 27, 2020, Congress enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act"). The CARES Act, among other things, includes tax provisions for the deferral of certain employer payroll tax liabilities, refundable employee retention credits, rollbacks of Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("TCJA") limitations on net operating losses, the acceleration of alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. The Company began deferring certain payroll taxes starting in April 2020, as permitted by the CARES Act. In addition, the Company began claiming the refundable employee retention credit created by the CARES Act during 2020. The Company continues to assess the effect of the CARES Act and additional legislation and government guidance related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Company's liquidity could be significantly affected if the Company is unable to maintain compliance with the covenants in its senior secured convertible notes and Secured Term Note, including the minimum cash balance requirements described in Footnote 4, Long-term Debt. If the Company fails to comply with its covenants, it could be required to redeem the senior secured convertible notes and the Secured Term Note at a premium. As of June 30, 2020, there was $217.0 million outstanding under the senior secured convertible notes and the Secured Term Note. The source of funds for any redemption of the notes would be the Company's available cash and other financing, to the extent available. Based on the Company's current plans, including continued cost management and other actions within management's control, the Company does not anticipate a breach of these covenants that would result in an event of default under the senior secured convertible notes or the Secured Term Note; however, during the quarter ended June 30, 2020, the holders of the senior secured convertible notes questioned the Company's compliance with the minimum cash balance requirements therein. As noted, any breach of covenants under the senior secured convertible notes could have a material impact on the Company's liquidity.
The Company continues to be focused on maintaining flexibility in terms of sources, amounts, and timing of any potential financing, refinancing or strategic transaction, in order to best position the Company for future success. The Company believes that its sources of funding, after taking into account the financing transactions described above and the cost-reduction initiatives undertaken by management in 2020, will be sufficient to satisfy the Company's estimated liquidity needs and allow the Company to remain in compliance with its covenants under the senior secured convertible notes and the Secured Term Note for at least one year after the date that these financial statements are issued. However, the Company cannot predict with certainty the outcome of its actions to generate liquidity, including the availability of additional financing, or whether such actions would generate the expected liquidity as currently planned. The Company also cannot predict the duration and magnitude of the COVID-19 pandemic or its effects on the Company's business or liquidity or any action that may be taken by the holders of the senior secured convertible notes, as described above.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated upon consolidation.
Reclassification
Certain amounts in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current quarter presentation. Specifically, current accrued litigation settlements have been aggregated within other current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, non-current contract liability is now separately reported from other non-current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Unaudited Interim Financial Information
The interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this quarterly report have been prepared by the Company and are unaudited, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, the Company believes that the disclosures contained in this quarterly report comply with the requirements of Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), for a quarterly report on Form 10-Q and are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. These interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the "2019 10-K"). The Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be anticipated for the entire year ending December 31, 2020 or thereafter. All references to June 30, 2020 and 2019 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited.
Use of Estimates and Judgments in the Preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting periods. Significant estimates and judgments are inherent in the analysis and the measurement of management's standalone selling price, principal versus agent revenue recognition, determination of performance obligations, determination of transaction price, including the determination of variable consideration and allocation of transaction price to performance obligations, deferred tax assets and liabilities, including the identification and quantification of income tax liabilities due to uncertain tax positions, the valuation and recoverability of goodwill, intangible and other long-lived assets, the determination of appropriate discount rates for lease accounting, the probability of exercising either lease renewal or termination clauses, the assessment of potential loss from contingencies, the fair value determination of financing derivative liabilities and warrants, the allowance for doubtful accounts, and valuation of options, performance-based and market-based stock awards. Management bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, management specifically considered the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and related matters in evaluating the Company's goodwill, intangible and other long-lived assets, lease accounting, contingencies, fair value determinations and allowance for doubtful accounts.
Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, particularly in the current environment, actual results reported in future periods may be affected by changes in those estimates. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis.

Loss Per Share
Basic net loss per common share excludes dilution for potential Common Stock issuances and is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding for the period. 250,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants held by Starboard ("penny warrants") were included in the number of outstanding shares used for the computation of basic net loss per share prior to the exercise of those warrants on April 3, 2019. In periods where the Company reports a net loss, the effect of anti-dilutive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units, deferred stock units, senior secured convertible notes and warrants are excluded and diluted net loss per share is equal to basic loss per share.
The following is a summary of the Common Stock equivalents for the securities outstanding during the respective periods that have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per common share, as their effect would be anti-dilutive:

Goodwill and Intangible Assets
In June 2019, the Company concluded that it was more likely than not that the estimated fair value of its reporting unit was less than its carrying value. In its assessment, the Company considered the sustained decline in the Company's stock price and market capitalization, changes in management, and lower revenue, among other factors. The Company performed a quantitative goodwill impairment test using a discounted cash flow model, supported by a market approach. The Company's reporting unit failed the goodwill impairment test; and as a result the Company recorded a $224.3 million non-cash impairment charge.
Also in June 2019, the Company recorded a $17.3 million non-cash impairment charge for the full carrying value of its strategic alliance intangible asset. Changes in the Company's projected revenue in certain non-U.S. geographic markets due to the changing international competitive landscape as well as significant reductions in international staffing during the quarter, resulted in a change in the Company's long-term view of the viability of the intangible asset. As such, the Company's assessment yielded that the benefit of the alliance would not be realized. The fair value of the strategic alliance intangible asset was estimated using an income approach.
There were no comparable charges in the three or six months ended June 30, 2020.
Impairment of Right-of-use ("ROU") and Long-lived Assets
The Company applies the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, to determine whether ROU and related long-lived assets may be impaired. The Company evaluates its ROU and long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. For facility lease ROU and related long-lived assets, the Company compares the estimated undiscounted cash flows generated by a sublease to the current carrying value of the ROU and related long-lived assets. If the undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of the ROU and related long-lived assets, the Company records an impairment loss equal to the excess of the ROU and long-lived assets' carrying value over their fair value consistent with other long-lived assets.
The Company performed an interim analysis as of March 31, 2020, as changes in market conditions indicated the carrying value of certain facility lease ROU and other long-lived assets may not be recoverable, and determined that certain ROU assets, and related leasehold improvements, were impaired.
The Company recorded a $4.7 million non-cash impairment charge related to its ROU assets, and related leasehold improvements, for the three months ended March 31, 2020, with corresponding reductions of $2.8 million and $1.9 million to the operating lease ROU asset and property and equipment, net line items, respectively, in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2020. The impairment charge was driven by changes in the Company's projected undiscounted cash flows for certain properties, primarily as a result of changes in the real estate market related to the COVID-19 pandemic, that led to an increase in the estimated marketing time, and a reduction of expected receipts, for properties currently on the market for sublease. The fair value of these ROU assets, and related leasehold improvements, was estimated using an income approach and a discount rate of 12.0%.
Although the Company believes that the carrying values of its long-lived assets are appropriately stated as of June 30, 2020, future changes in strategy or market conditions, significant technological developments or significant changes in legal or regulatory factors could significantly impact these judgments and require adjustments to recorded asset balances.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company generally grants uncollateralized credit terms to its customers and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts to reserve for uncollectible receivables. Allowances are based on management's judgment, which considers historical collection experience adjusted for current conditions or expected future conditions based on reasonable and supportable forecasts, a specific review of all significant outstanding receivables, an assessment of company-specific credit conditions and general economic conditions. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, management considered the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including customer payment delays and requests from customers to revise contractual payment terms, in determining the Company's allowance for doubtful accounts.
The table below summarizes the change in balance of the allowance for doubtful accounts:

Accounting Standards Recently Adopted
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), which requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost. ASU 2016-13 replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected loss model which requires consideration of forward-looking information to calculate credit loss estimates. These changes will result in an earlier recognition of credit losses. The amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2020, and the standard did not have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements or related disclosures based on historical collection trends, the financial condition of payment partners, and external market factors.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), which removes and modifies certain disclosure requirements under Topic 820. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity is permitted to early adopt any removed or modified disclosures upon issuance of the update and to delay adoption of the additional disclosures until their effective date. The Company adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2020, and the standard did not have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements or related disclosures.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740), which simplifies the accounting for income taxes primarily by eliminating certain exemptions. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity is permitted to early adopt any removed or modified disclosures upon issuance of the update and to delay adoption of the additional disclosures until their effective date. The Company is in the process of evaluating the guidance but does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements or related disclosures.

4.Long-term Debt
Issuance and Sale of Initial Notes
On January 16, 2018, the Company entered into certain agreements with Starboard, pursuant to which, among other things, the Company issued and sold to Starboard $150.0 million of senior secured convertible notes (the "Initial Notes") in exchange for $85.0 million in cash and 2,600,000 shares of Common Stock valued at $65.0 million. Based upon the fair value of the Common Stock on the closing date of the Initial Notes issuance, January 16, 2018, which was $24.45 per share, the difference of $1.4 million was recorded as an issuance discount to the Initial Notes. The Company also granted to Starboard an option (the "Notes Option") to acquire up to an additional $50.0 million in senior secured convertible notes (the "Option Notes" and together with the Initial Notes, the "Notes") and agreed to grant Starboard warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $0.01 per share, as adjusted pursuant to the terms of the warrants. The warrants were issued on October 12, 2018 and were exercised in full by Starboard on April 3, 2019 for 323,448 shares of Common Stock.
The conversion price for the Notes (the "Conversion Price") is equal to a 30.0% premium to the volume weighted average trading prices ("VWAP") of the Common Stock on each trading day during the 10 consecutive trading days commencing on January 16, 2018, subject to a Conversion Price floor of $28.00 per share. In accordance with the foregoing, the Conversion Price was set at $31.29.
The Notes mature on January 16, 2022. Based upon the determination of the Conversion Price, interest on the Notes accrued at 6.0% per year through January 30, 2019, when the interest rate reset to 12.0% per year through January 30, 2020. The interest rate reset on January 30, 2020 and will remain at 12.0% (subject to certain conditions) until February 1, 2021 (the "Interest Reset Date"). On the Interest Reset Date, the interest rate on the Notes will reset, and interest will thereafter accrue at a minimum of 4.0% per year and a maximum of 12.0% per year, based upon the then-applicable conversion premium in accordance with the terms of the Notes.
Interest on the Notes is payable on a quarterly basis in arrears from April 1, 2018, at the option of the Company, in cash, or, subject to certain conditions, through the issuance by the Company of additional shares of Common Stock ("PIK Interest Shares"). Any PIK Interest Shares so issued will be valued at the arithmetic average of the VWAP of the Common Stock on each trading day during the 10 consecutive trading days ending immediately preceding the applicable interest payment date. On each of January 2, 2020, April 1, 2020 and July 1, 2020, the Company paid quarterly accrued interest of $6.1 million in cash. The accrued interest liability of $6.1 million as of June 30, 2020 was classified within accrued expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Notes contain certain affirmative and restrictive covenants with which the Company must comply, including covenants with respect to (i) limitations on additional indebtedness, (ii) limitations on liens, (iii) limitations on certain payments, (iv) maintenance of certain minimum cash balances (currently $40.0 million), and (v) the timely filing of certain disclosures with the SEC. The Company is in compliance with its Notes covenants as of the date of these financial statements, inclusive of the Company's restricted cash balances.
Issuance and Sale of Option Notes
On May 17, 2018, the Notes Option was exercised by Starboard, pursuant to which the Company issued and sold to Starboard $50.0 million of Option Notes in exchange for $15.0 million in cash and 1,400,000 shares of Common Stock valued at $35.0 million. Based upon the fair value of the Common Stock on the closing date of the Option Notes issuance, May 17, 2018, which was $21.75 per share, the difference of $4.6 million was recorded as an issuance discount to the Option Notes. The Option Notes have the same terms, including maturity, interest rate, convertibility, and security, as the Initial Notes, except with regard to the date from which interest began to accrue, which was May 17, 2018.
Financing Derivatives
The Notes contain an interest rate reset feature, make-whole change of control redemption feature, and a qualifying change of control redemption feature which the Company determined represent embedded derivatives that must be bifurcated and accounted for separately from the Notes. Refer to Footnote 6, Fair Value Measurements, for further information on the Level 3 inputs utilized for the determination of the fair value of the derivatives.

Due to the interest rate reset feature of the Notes, the potential future cash flows associated with the Notes are variable. Accordingly, the accretion schedule of debt discount and the amortization schedule of deferred financing costs are updated annually to reflect periodic changes in the future cash flows using the effective interest rate on a prospective basis.
The Company amortized $0.3 million and $0.6 million in deferred financing costs related to the Notes during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively; and $0.3 million and $0.5 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. The Company accreted $1.8 million and $3.6 million in issuance discount related to the Notes during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively; and $1.7 million and $3.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively.
The estimated fair value of the Notes, using Level 3 inputs based on interest rates available for debt with terms and maturities similar to the Company's Notes, was $171.0 million as of June 30, 2020.
Guarantee and Security of Notes
The Notes are guaranteed by certain of the Company's direct and indirect wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries (the "Guarantors") and are secured by a security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Guarantors, pursuant to a Guaranty, dated as of January 16, 2018, entered into by the Guarantors, and a Pledge and Security Agreement, dated as of January 16, 2018, among the Company, the Guarantors and Starboard Value and Opportunity Master Fund Ltd. as collateral agent.
Issuance of Secured Term Note
On December 31, 2019, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Rentrak B.V., entered into an agreement with the Noteholder for the Secured Term Note for aggregate gross proceeds of $13.0 million. The Secured Term Note, which is cash collateralized, matures on December 31, 2021 and has an annual interest rate of 9.75%. Interest is payable in arrears on the last business day of each calendar month commencing on January 31, 2020.
The Secured Term Note contains certain affirmative and restrictive covenants with which Rentrak B.V. must comply, including (i) maintenance of a minimum cash collateral balance of $14.8 million, (ii) provision of certain financial statements, (iii) limitations on additional indebtedness and liens, (iv) limitations on repayment of debt, (v) limitations on repurchase of stock, and (vi) limitations on disposition of assets. Rentrak B.V. is in compliance with the Secured Term Note covenants as of June 30, 2020.
The balance of the Secured Term Note as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was as follows:

The estimated fair value of the Secured Term Note, using Level 2 inputs based on interest rates available for debt with terms and maturities similar to the Company's Secured Term Note, was $14.9 million as of June 30, 2020.
Letters of Credit
In 2018, the Company entered into a Security Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. to issue standby letters of credit. As of June 30, 2020, $3.3 million in letters of credit are outstanding and are cash collateralized under the Security Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.
Failed Sale-Leaseback Transaction
In June 2019, the Company entered into a sale-leaseback arrangement with a vendor to provide $4.3 million in cash proceeds for previously acquired computer and other equipment. The arrangement is repayable over a 24-month term for total consideration of $4.8 million, with control of the equipment transferring to the vendor at the end of the leaseback term.
The Company concluded the leaseback would be classified as a financing lease. Therefore, the transaction was deemed a failed sale-leaseback and was accounted for as a financing arrangement. The assets continue to be depreciated over their useful lives, and payments are allocated between interest expense and repayment of the financing liability. The remaining financing liability of $2.6 million is included within other current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Future minimum payments related to the financing obligations under the failed sale-leaseback transaction as of June 30, 2020 are summarized below:

5.Stockholders' Equity
2019 Issuance and Sale of Common Stock and Warrants
On June 23, 2019, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with CVI, pursuant to which CVI agreed to purchase (i) 2,728,513 shares of Common Stock (the "Initial Shares"), at a price of $7.33 per share and (ii) Series A Warrants, Series B-1 Warrants, Series B-2 Warrants and Series C Warrants, for aggregate gross proceeds of $20.0 million (the "Private Placement"). The Private Placement closed on June 26, 2019 (the "Closing Date").
The Series B-1 Warrants were exercisable by the holders at any time prior to the six-month anniversary of the Closing Date, as adjusted pursuant to the terms of the Series B-1 Warrants. The Series B-1 Warrants provided the holders the right to purchase an aggregate of up to 2,347,418 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price equal to $8.52 and could have been exercised for cash only. The Series B-1 Warrants expired on January 29, 2020.
The Series B-2 Warrants were exercisable by the holders at any time prior to the twelve-month anniversary of the Closing Date, as adjusted pursuant to the terms of the Series B-2 Warrants. The Series B-2 Warrants provided the holders the right to purchase an aggregate of up to 1,121,076 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price equal to $8.92 and could have been exercised for cash only. The Series B-2 Warrants expired on August 3, 2020.
The Series A Warrants are exercisable for a period of five years from the Closing Date and are currently exercisable into 5,457,026 shares of Common Stock, which is equal to the Initial Shares plus the number of shares issued pursuant to the exercise of the Series C Warrants (described below). The exercise price for the Series A Warrants is $12.00. The Series A Warrants may be exercised for cash or through a net settlement feature. The exercise price for the Series A Warrants is subject to anti-dilution adjustment in certain circumstances.
The Series C Warrants are partially prepaid warrants (with a nominal remaining exercise price) that were not exercisable before September 21, 2019 and expire 90 days after the first anniversary of the Closing Date. CVI exercised the Series C Warrants on October 10, 2019. Because the VWAP of the Common Stock as of the date of exercise, discounted by 7.5%, was less than CVI's

purchase price for the Initial Shares, the Company was required to issue to CVI a number of shares of Common Stock equal to (i) (x) CVI's purchase price for the Initial Shares divided by (y) 92.5% of the VWAP of the Common Stock leading up to September 21, 2019, subject to a floor of 50.0% of the price per Initial Share, less (ii) the number of Initial Shares issued to CVI on the Closing Date. As a result of this exercise, the Company issued 2,728,513 shares of Common Stock to CVI on October 14, 2019. In addition, the number of shares issuable under the Company's Series A Warrants was increased by 2,728,513.
CVI will not have the right to exercise any warrant that would result in CVI beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the outstanding Common Stock after giving effect to such exercise. CVI has the right, in its discretion, to raise this threshold up to 9.99% with 60 days' notice to the Company.
Pursuant to the transactions described above, the Company agreed to a 105-day lock-up period related to any future offering of equity or equity-linked securities and also agreed to provide CVI with registration rights relating to the Initial Shares and any shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrants. On June 26, 2019, the Company filed a prospectus supplement to its effective registration statement on Form S-3 to permit the resale of such shares.
Management determined each warrant to be a freestanding financial instrument that qualifies for liability treatment as a result of net cash settlement features associated with an exchange-related limitation or upon a change in control. Each warrant is initially measured at fair value and classified as a current liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, with subsequent changes in fair value recorded in earnings. To determine the fair value of each warrant, management utilized a Monte Carlo simulation analysis within an option pricing model.
The estimated fair value of the warrants as of June 30, 2020 was $3.8 million. Refer to Footnote 6, Fair Value Measurements, for further information on the Level 3 inputs utilized for the determination of the fair value of the warrants.

(1) Warrants liability includes only Series A as of June 30, 2020. Warrants liability includes Series A and Series B-2 as of December 31, 2019.
The primary sensitivity in the interest rate reset derivative liability is driven by the Common Stock price at the measurement date, the observable volatility of the Common Stock, and the discount rate used to determine the present value of the instrument. The primary sensitivity for the make-whole and qualifying change of control redemption derivative liabilities is driven by the probability of the change of control.
The primary sensitivity in the valuation of each warrant liability is driven by the Common Stock price at the measurement date and the observable volatility of the Common Stock.

9.Commitments and Contingencies
Contingencies
The Company is involved in various legal proceedings from time to time. The Company establishes reserves for specific legal proceedings when management determines that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable, and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company has also identified certain other legal matters where an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible and/or for which no estimate of possible losses can be made. In these cases, the Company does not establish a reserve until it can reasonably estimate the loss. Legal fees are expensed as incurred. The outcomes of legal proceedings are inherently unpredictable, subject to significant uncertainties, and could be material to the Company's operating results and cash flows for a particular period.
Privacy Class Action Litigation
On September 11, 2017, the Company and a wholly-owned subsidiary, Full Circle Studies, Inc., ("Full Circle"), received demand letters on behalf of named plaintiffs and all others similarly situated alleging that the Company and Full Circle collected personal information from users under the age of 13 without verifiable parental consent in violation of Massachusetts law and the federal Children's Online Privacy Protection Act. The letters alleged that the Company and Full Circle collected such personal information by embedding advertising software development kits ("SDKs") in applications created or developed by The Walt Disney Company. The letters sought monetary damages, attorneys' fees and damages under Massachusetts law. On June 4, 2018, the plaintiffs filed amended complaints with the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California adding the Company and Full Circle as defendants in a purported class action (captioned Rushing, et al v. The Walt Disney Company, et al., Case No. 3:17-cv-04419-JD) against Disney, Twitter and other defendants, alleging violations of California's constitutional right to privacy and intrusion upon seclusion law, New York's deceptive trade practices statute, and Massachusetts' deceptive trade practices and right to privacy statutes. The complaints alleged damages in excess of $5.0 million, with any award to be apportioned among the defendants. On February 26, 2020, the Company and Full Circle reached an agreement with the plaintiffs to settle the complaints in full, with no admission of liability, in return for injunctive relief and payment of the plaintiffs' attorneys' fees, to be covered by the Company's insurance. The settlement is subject to court approval.
Securities Class Action Litigation
On April 10, 2019, Sergii Bratusov, a purported shareholder of the Company, filed a putative class action complaint against the Company. The case, captioned Bratusov v. comScore, Inc., et al., Case No. 19 Civ. 03210, was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York and also named the Company's Chief Financial Officer, Gregory Fink, and the Company's former Chief Executive Officer, Bryan Wiener, as defendants. The complaint, which was amended on September 30, 2019, purported to bring claims on behalf of all persons and entities that acquired securities of the Company between February 28, 2019 and August 7, 2019 and alleged that the Company, Mr. Wiener, and Mr. Fink violated Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, by allegedly failing to disclose in public statements in February and March 2019 material information concerning a disagreement relating to the Company's business strategy. The complaint also alleged that Mr. Wiener and Mr. Fink, acting as control persons of the Company, violated Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act in connection with the Company's alleged failure to disclose material information. The complaint sought a determination of the propriety of the class, compensatory damages and the award of reasonable costs and expenses incurred in the action. On June 24, 2020, the Court granted the defendants' motion to dismiss the complaint for failure to state a claim. On July 24, 2020, the complaint was dismissed with prejudice.
Other Matters
In addition to the matters described above, the Company is, and may become, a party to a variety of legal proceedings from time to time that arise in the normal course of the Company's business. While the results of such legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that, based on current knowledge, the final outcome of any such current pending matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Regardless of the outcome, legal proceedings can have an adverse effect on the Company because of defense costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

Indemnification
The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with each of the Company's directors and certain officers, and the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation requires it to indemnify each of its officers and directors, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the Company. The Company has paid and may in the future pay legal counsel fees incurred by current and former directors and officers who are involved in legal proceedings that require indemnification.
Similarly, certain of the Company's commercial contracts require it to indemnify contract counterparties under specified circumstances, and the Company may incur legal counsel fees and other costs in connection with these obligations.
10.Organizational Restructuring
In 2019, the Company implemented two reduction in force plans ("May 2019 Restructuring Plan" and "August 2019 Restructuring Plan") in order to reduce costs and more effectively align resources with business priorities. The May 2019 Restructuring Plan and the August 2019 Restructuring Plan are complete as of June 30, 2020, with remaining payments for the August 2019 Restructuring Plan through March 2021.
The table below summarizes the balance of the restructuring liability as of June 30, 2020, which is recorded in accrued expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and the changes in the accrued amounts for the six months ended June 30, 2020, by restructuring plan:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or 10-Q. In addition to historical financial information, the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results and timing of selected events in future periods may differ materially from those anticipated or implied in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those discussed under Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the "2019 10-K"), under Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, under Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in this 10-Q and elsewhere in this 10-Q. See also "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" at the beginning of this 10-Q.
In an effort to contain the COVID-19 pandemic or slow its spread, governments around the world have enacted various measures, including orders to close all businesses not deemed "essential", isolate residents to their homes or places of residence, and practice social distancing when engaging in essential activities. To date, these measures have had some impact on our business, including with respect to the timing of executing new or renewal contracts, the impact of closed movie theaters on our customers, customer payment delays and requests to modify contractual payment terms. These conditions have negatively impacted our liquidity and cash flows to some extent and are expected to continue to have an impact in future periods. As discussed in more detail below, we cannot quantify the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic and related government actions may have on our business or liquidity in the future. We have taken actions to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 and will continue to actively monitor the situation. We may take further actions that alter our business operations as may be required by federal, state, local or foreign authorities, or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, partners and stockholders. The full extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, operations and financial results will depend on numerous evolving factors that we cannot currently predict. See Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in this 10-Q and Item 1A "Risk Factors" in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 for additional details.
Overview
We are a global information and analytics company that measures advertising, content, and the consumer audiences of each, across media platforms. We create our products using a global data platform that combines information on digital platforms (smartphones, tablets and computers), television ("TV") and movie screens with demographics and other descriptive information in a privacy-focused way. We have developed proprietary data science that enables measurement of person-level and household-level audiences, removing duplicated viewing across devices and over time. This combination of data and methods enables a common standard for buyers and sellers to transact on advertising. This helps companies across the media ecosystem better understand and monetize their audiences and develop marketing plans and products to more efficiently and effectively reach those audiences. Our ability to unify behavioral and other descriptive data enables us to provide audience ratings, advertising verification, and granular consumer segments that describe hundreds of millions of consumers. Our customers include digital publishers, television networks, movie studios, content owners, advertisers, agencies and technology providers.
The platforms we measure include TV, smartphones, computers, tablets, over-the-top ("OTT") devices and movie theaters. The information we analyze crosses geographies, types of content and activities, including websites, mobile applications, video games, television and movie programming, e-commerce, and advertising.

Revenues
Our products and services are organized around solution groups that address customer needs. Accordingly, we evaluate revenue around three solution groups:
Ratings and Planning provides measurement of the behavior and characteristics of audiences of content and advertising across television and digital platforms including computers, tablets, smartphones, and other connected devices. These products and services are designed to help customers find the most relevant viewing audience, whether that viewing is linear, non-linear, online or on-demand.
Analytics and Optimization includes activation and survey-based products that provide end-to-end solutions for planning, optimization and evaluation of advertising campaigns and brand protection.
Movies Reporting and Analytics measures movie viewership and box office results by capturing movie ticket sales in real time or near real time and includes box office analytics, trend analysis and insights for movie studios and movie theater operators worldwide.
We categorize our revenue along these three offerings; however, our cost structure is tracked at the corporate level and not by our solution groups. These costs include, but are not limited to, employee costs, costs to acquire data, operational overhead, data centers, and our technology that supports multiple solution groups.

Revenues from these three solution groups for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were as follows:

Total revenues$88,566  100.0 %$96,888  100.0 %$(8,322) (8.6)%
(1) In the second quarter of 2020, we began classifying revenue from certain new and extended custom agreements for services that utilize our syndicated data set, previously classified under Analytics and Optimization, as Ratings and Planning. The impact was not material to either solution group.
Revenues decreased by $8.3 million, or 8.6%, for the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019.
Ratings and Planning revenue is comprised of revenue from our digital, television and cross-platform products. Ratings and Planning revenue decreased $5.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease was largely driven by lower revenue from our syndicated digital products due in part to the COVID-19 pandemic. While retention of syndicated digital enterprise customers remained high, revenue from our syndicated digital products represented 48% and 50% of our Ratings and Planning revenue in the second quarter of 2020 and 2019, respectively. TV revenues were higher due in part to our new partnership with LiveRamp, additional deliveries of addressable TV solutions, and the impact of new Local TV business entered into in 2019. Cross-platform revenues were lower due to fewer customer deliveries.
Analytics and Optimization revenue decreased by $0.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease was primarily due to a decline in activation usage and fewer deliveries of lift and survey products, due in part to the COVID-19 pandemic, during the second quarter of 2020. The decline was partially offset by approximately $1.0 million in revenue from a one-time recovery of revenue-sharing fees pertaining to one of our lift products.
Movies Reporting and Analytics revenue decreased by $2.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. Revenue was impacted by some smaller customers under short-term contracts pausing service in connection with theater closures. We expect theater closures to continue affecting movies revenue for the foreseeable future. During the quarter ended June 30, 2020, we signed or renewed contracts with eight significant customers, including three major domestic studios and one international studio. However, the uncertainty around theater re-openings delayed the renewals of several customers.
Revenues for these three solution groups for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were as follows:

(1) In the second quarter of 2020, we began classifying revenue from certain new and extended custom agreements for services that utilize our syndicated data set, previously classified under Analytics and Optimization, as Ratings and Planning. The impact was not material to either solution group.
Revenues decreased by $21.1 million, or 10.6%, for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019.
Ratings and Planning revenue decreased by $12.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease was largely driven by lower revenue from our syndicated digital products due in part to the COVID-19 pandemic. While retention of syndicated digital enterprise customers remained high, revenue from our syndicated digital products represented 49% and 51% of our Ratings and Planning revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. TV revenues were lower as a result of the effects of consolidation of certain customers. The decrease was partially offset by increases from our new partnership with LiveRamp, additional deliveries of addressable TV solutions, and the impact of new Local TV business entered into in 2019. Cross-platform revenues were lower due to fewer customer deliveries.
Analytics and Optimization revenue decreased by $6.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019, due to lower sales and deliveries across all products in this solution group, due in part to the COVID-19 pandemic, in the first six months of 2020. These declines were partially offset by approximately $1.0 million in revenue from a one-time recovery of revenue-sharing fees pertaining to one of our lift products.
Movies Reporting and Analytics revenue decreased by $2.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. Revenue was impacted by some smaller customers under short-term contracts pausing service in connection with theater closures. We expect theater closures to continue affecting movies revenue for the foreseeable future. During the quarter ended June 30, 2020, we signed or renewed contracts with eight significant customers, including three major domestic studios and one international studio. However, the uncertainty around theater re-openings delayed the renewals of several customers.

Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues consists primarily of expenses related to producing our products, operating our network infrastructure, the recruitment, maintenance and support of our consumer panels and amortization of capitalized fulfillment costs. Expenses associated with these areas include employee costs including salaries, benefits, stock-based compensation and other related personnel costs of network operations, survey operations, custom analytics and technical support, all of which are expensed as they are incurred. Cost of revenues also includes costs to obtain multichannel video programming distributor ("MVPD") data sets and panel, census based and other data sets used in our products as well as operational costs associated with our data centers, including depreciation expense associated with computer equipment and internally developed software that supports our panels and systems. Additionally, cost of revenues includes allocated overhead, lease expense and other facilities-related costs.

Sample and survey costs decreased $1.3 million due to lower sales and deliveries of digital custom marketing solutions.

Employee costs decreased $1.6 million primarily as a result of lower headcount and stock-based compensation in the second quarter of 2020 as compared with 2019. These decreases were offset by an increase in bad debt expense of $1.0 million primarily due to increased reserves related to customers more impacted by the current economic environment.

Professional fees decreased $2.2 million primarily due to fees related to the issuance of Common Stock and warrants in June 2019 and reduced audit fees in 2020 as compared to 2019.

Investigation and Audit Related
We did not incur any expenses related to the previously disclosed Audit Committee investigation and prior-year audits during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. The investigation and audit related expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 related to ongoing fees for the previously disclosed SEC investigation which was resolved in September 2019. We do not expect to incur additional expenses for this matter.
Impairment of Goodwill and Intangible Asset
In the second quarter of 2019, as a result of a sustained decline in our stock price and market capitalization, changes in management, and lower revenue, among other factors, we performed an interim impairment review of our goodwill and long-lived assets. Our reporting unit did not pass the goodwill impairment test, and as a result we recorded a $224.3 million impairment charge in the second quarter of 2019.
Also in the second quarter of 2019, changes in our projected revenue in certain non-U.S. geographic markets due to the changing international competitive landscape, as well as significant reductions in international staffing during the quarter, resulted in a change in our long-term view of the viability of our strategic alliance intangible asset. Our assessment yielded that the benefit of the strategic alliance would not be realized, and as a result we recorded a $17.3 million impairment charge in the second quarter of 2019.
There were no comparable charges in the three or six months ended June 30, 2020.
Impairment of Right-of-use and Long-lived Assets
In the first quarter of 2020, we recorded a $4.7 million impairment charge related to our facility lease right-of-use assets and associated leasehold improvements for certain properties currently on the market for sublease. The impairment charge was driven by changes in our projected undiscounted cash flows for certain properties, primarily as a result of changes in the real estate market related to the COVID-19 pandemic, that led to an increase in the estimated marketing time and a reduction of expected receipts.
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net consists of interest income and interest expense. Interest income primarily consists of interest earned from our cash and cash equivalent balances. Interest expense relates to interest on our senior secured convertible notes ("Notes"), secured term note (the "Secured Term Note") and our finance leases.
During the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we incurred interest expense, net of $8.9 million and $8.2 million, respectively, and $17.7 million and $15.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase in interest expense, net for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily due to the issuance of the Secured Term Note in December 2019. The increase in interest expense, net for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily driven by the interest rate reset feature on the Notes, which reset the interest rate from 6.0% to 12.0% in January 2019, and the issuance of the Secured Term Note in December 2019.
Other Income (Expense), Net
Other income (expense), net represents income and expenses incurred that are generally not part of our regular operations. The following is a summary of other income (expense), net for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019:

Total other income (expense), net$1,477  $(3,081) $8,671  $(112) 
Other income, net for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was driven primarily by the gain from the changes in fair value of our financing derivatives offset by the change in fair value of our warrants liability. Other expense, net for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 primarily relates to gains and losses from the changes in fair value of our financing derivatives, and the loss due to the decline in the fair value of our investment in equity securities, which were disposed in 2019.

Loss from Foreign Currency Transactions
Our foreign currency transactions are recorded as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate between the transactional currency and the functional currency of foreign subsidiary transactions. Our international currency exposures that relate to the translation to U.S. Dollars are in a net liability position and our international currency exposures that relate to the translation from U.S. Dollars are in a net asset position. The U.S. Dollar strengthened during the first quarter of 2020 which was offset by weakness of the U.S. Dollar in the second quarter of 2020. This resulted in losses for our positions when translated to U.S. Dollars during the second quarter of 2020 and minimal losses for the first half of 2020. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the loss from foreign currency transactions was $0.9 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The losses were primarily driven by fluctuations in the Chilean Peso against the U.S. Dollar and Euro. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the gain from foreign currency transactions was immaterial.
Benefit for Income Taxes
A valuation allowance has been established against our net U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets, including net operating loss carryforwards. As a result, our income tax position is primarily related to foreign tax activity.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded an income tax benefit of $0.7 million and $1.1 million, respectively, resulting in an effective tax rate of (6.0)% and (4.4)%, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded an income tax benefit of $4.5 million and $3.3 million, respectively, resulting in an effective tax rate of (1.6)% and (1.1)%, respectively. These effective tax rates differ from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to the effects of foreign tax rate differences, U.S. state legislative changes and changes in the valuation allowance against our domestic deferred tax assets.
The COVID-19 pandemic has a global reach, and many countries are introducing measures that provide relief to taxpayers in a variety of ways. We are currently evaluating these measures, including the CARES Act in the United States, but these did not have an impact on our income tax provision for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results, and to comply with a covenant under our Notes (described below), we are disclosing herein Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA") and non-GAAP net loss, each of which are non-GAAP financial measures used by our management to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results, as they permit our investors to view our core business performance using the same metrics that management uses to evaluate our performance.
EBITDA is defined as GAAP net income (loss) plus or minus interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization of intangible assets and finance leases. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA plus or minus stock-based compensation expense as well as other items and amounts that we view as not indicative of our core operating performance, specifically: charges for matters relating to the prior-year Audit Committee investigation, such as litigation and investigation-related costs, costs associated with tax projects, audits, consulting and other professional fees; other legal proceedings specified in the Notes; settlement of certain litigation; restructuring expense; transaction costs related to the issuance of equity securities; non-cash impairment charges; and non-cash changes in the fair value of financing derivatives, warrants liability and investments in equity securities.
We define non-GAAP net loss as GAAP net income (loss) plus or minus stock-based compensation expense and amortization of intangible assets, as well as other items and amounts that we view as not indicative of our core operating performance, specifically: charges for matters relating to the prior-year Audit Committee investigation, such as litigation and investigation-related costs, costs associated with tax projects, audits, consulting and other professional fees; other legal proceedings specified in the Notes; settlement of certain litigation; restructuring expense; transaction costs related to the issuance of equity securities; non-cash impairment charges; and non-cash changes in the fair value of financing derivatives, warrants liability and investments in equity securities.
Our use of these non-GAAP financial measures has limitations as an analytical tool, and investors should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. The limitations of such non-GAAP measures include the following:
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect tax or interest payments that represent a reduction in cash available to us (or, in the case of interest paid in Common Stock, that represent additional dilution to our existing stockholders);
Depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges and the assets being depreciated may have to be replaced in the future. Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
28

Table of Contents

Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net loss do not reflect cash payments relating to fees incurred in connection with issuance of equity securities, restructuring, litigation and the prior-year Audit Committee investigation, such as litigation and investigation-related costs, costs associated with tax projects, audits and other professional, consulting or other fees incurred in connection with our prior-year audits and certain legal proceedings, all of which have represented a reduction in cash available to us;
Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net loss do not consider the impact of stock-based compensation and similar arrangements that represent dilution to our existing stockholders;
Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net loss do not consider impairment of goodwill, long-lived assets and right-of-use assets, which represents a decline in the value of our assets;
Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net loss do not consider possible cash gains or losses related to our financing derivatives, warrants liability or investment in equity securities; and
Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate any of these non-GAAP financial measures differently, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures.
Because of these and other limitations, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net loss alongside GAAP-based financial performance measures, including GAAP revenue and various cash flow metrics, net income (loss) and our other GAAP financial results. Management addresses the inherent limitations associated with using non-GAAP financial measures through disclosure of such limitations, presentation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP and a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net loss to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, net income (loss).
Under our Notes, we are required to disclose Consolidated EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, on a quarterly basis. Consolidated EBITDA, as defined for purposes of the Notes, was the same as Adjusted EBITDA as presented below.

Our principal uses of cash historically consisted of cash paid for payroll and other operating expenses, payments related to investments in equipment, primarily to support our consumer panels and technical infrastructure required to deliver our products and services and support our customers, and service of our debt and lease facilities. In prior years, we also incurred significant professional fees relating to our Audit Committee's investigation, subsequent audit and compliance efforts, as well as management changes and various legal proceedings.
As of June 30, 2020, our principal sources of liquidity consisted of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaling $55.5 million, including $19.6 million in restricted cash.
Our principal sources of liquidity have historically been our cash and cash equivalents, as well as cash flow generated from our operations. Our operating losses, including the significant investigation and audit costs in prior years, resulted in a need to secure long-term financing. In 2018, we entered into agreements with funds affiliated with or managed by Starboard Value LP (collectively, "Starboard"), pursuant to which we issued and sold to Starboard a total of $204.0 million in Notes as well as warrants to purchase shares of our Common Stock in exchange for $100.0 million in cash and 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock. See "Senior Secured Convertible Notes" below.
In June 2019, we issued 2,728,513 shares of our Common Stock and four series of warrants in a private placement to CVI Investments, Inc. ("CVI") in exchange for gross cash proceeds of $20.0 million. See "Sale of Common Stock and Warrants" below.
In December 2019, we issued a Secured Term Note for gross cash proceeds of $13.0 million. See "Secured Term Note" below.
In January 2020, April 2020 and July 2020, we paid our quarterly accrued interest liability on the Notes in cash; the interest amount was accrued in short term liabilities as of December 31, 2019, March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020, respectively.

The COVID-19 pandemic and related government mandates and restrictions have had a significant impact on the media, advertising and entertainment industries in which we operate. To date, the COVID-19 pandemic has had some impact on our business, including with respect to the timing of executing new or renewal contracts, the impact of closed movie theaters on our customers, customer payment delays and requests to modify contractual payment terms. These conditions have negatively impacted our liquidity and cash flows to some extent and are expected to continue to have an impact in future periods. In the second quarter of 2020, we continued to see delays in cash collections, leading our management team to take actions to mitigate the near-term impact on our liquidity. These actions included freezing hiring, exiting non-critical consultants and contractors, terminating or negotiating reductions in vendor agreements and leases, reducing compensation for our senior leadership team and board of directors, and reducing certain travel, marketing, recruiting and other corporate activities not deemed critical to the business in the current environment.
In addition to its impact on operations, the spread of COVID-19 has led to disruption and volatility in global capital and credit markets. Depending on future developments, this disruption could impact our ability to access capital resources on terms acceptable to us or allowable under our current financing arrangements, and our management team continues to evaluate a range of scenarios in this area as well.
On March 27, 2020, Congress enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act"). The CARES Act, among other things, includes tax provisions for the deferral of certain employer payroll tax liabilities, refundable employee retention credits, rollbacks of Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("TCJA") limitations on net operating losses, the acceleration of alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. We began deferring certain payroll taxes starting in April 2020, as permitted by the CARES Act. In addition, we began claiming the refundable employee retention credit created by the CARES Act during 2020. We continue to assess the effect of the CARES Act and additional legislation and government guidance related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Our liquidity could be negatively affected by a decrease in demand for our products and services or by additional losses from operations, as well as payment of expenses incurred in prior periods in addition to current period expenses. It is possible that long-term changes in consumer behavior will impact our customers' operations, and thus their demand for our services and ability to pay, even after the spread of COVID-19 has been contained and businesses are permitted to resume normal operations. While we are taking actions (as described above) to mitigate the impact of COVID-19, control costs and improve our working capital balance, these steps may not be successful or adequate to offset future declines. If our efforts to control costs are not sufficient, or if customer demand or cash collection efforts are further impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, we may not be able to maintain our compliance with the affirmative and negative covenants in our Notes and Secured Term Note or to meet our financial obligations to our vendors or others.
Our liquidity could be significantly affected if we are unable to maintain compliance with the covenants in our Notes and Secured Term Note, including the minimum cash balance requirements described in Footnote 4, Long-term Debt, to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. If we fail to comply with our covenants, we could be required to redeem the Notes and the Secured Term Note at a premium. As of June 30, 2020, there was $217.0 million outstanding under the Notes and the Secured Term Note. The source of funds for any redemption of our debt would be our available cash and other financing, to the extent available. Based on our current plans, including continued cost management and other actions within management's control, we do not anticipate a breach of these covenants that would result in an event of default under the Notes or the Secured Term Note; however, during the quarter ended June 30, 2020, the holders of the Notes questioned our compliance with the minimum cash balance requirements therein. As noted, any breach of covenants under the Notes could have a material impact on our liquidity.
We continue to be focused on maintaining flexibility in terms of sources, amounts and the timing of any potential financing, refinancing or strategic transaction in order to best position the Company for future success. We believe that our sources of funding, after taking into account the actions described above, will be sufficient to satisfy our currently anticipated requirements for at least the next 12 months. However, we cannot predict with certainty the outcome of our actions to generate liquidity, including the availability of additional financing. We also cannot predict the duration and magnitude of the COVID-19 pandemic or its ultimate effects on our business or liquidity or any action that may be taken by the holders of the Notes.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash represents our requirement to collateralize the Secured Term Note, outstanding letters of credit, international payroll processing exposures and lines of credit related to certain of our corporate credit card programs and international payroll processing exposures. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had $19.6 million and $20.2 million of restricted cash, respectively.
Letters of Credit
In 2018, we entered into a Security Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. to issue standby letters of credit on our behalf. As of June 30, 2020, $3.3 million in letters of credit are outstanding and are cash collateralized under the Security Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.

Issuance and Sale of Common Stock and Warrants
On June 23, 2019, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with CVI pursuant to which we sold to CVI for aggregate gross proceeds of $20.0 million (i) 2,728,513 shares of Common Stock and (ii) Series A Warrants, Series B-1 Warrants, Series B-2 Warrants and Series C Warrants to initially purchase up to 11,654,033 shares of Common Stock (the "Private Placement"). On October 14, 2019, we issued 2,728,513 shares of Common Stock to CVI upon exercise by CVI of the Series C Warrants. As a result of this exercise, the number of shares issuable under our Series A Warrants was increased by 2,728,513. In January 2020, the Series B-1 Warrants expired unexercised. On August 3, 2020, the Series B-2 Warrants expired unexercised.
For additional information on the Private Placement, refer to Footnote 5, Stockholders' Equity.
Issuance and Sale of Senior Secured Convertible Notes and Warrants
On January 16, 2018, we entered into certain agreements with Starboard, pursuant to which we issued and sold to Starboard $150.0 million in Notes in exchange for $85.0 million in cash and 2,600,000 shares of Common Stock. We also agreed to issue to Starboard warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $0.01 per share, as adjusted pursuant to the terms of the warrants. The warrants were issued on October 12, 2018 and exercised in full on April 3, 2019 for 323,448 shares of Common Stock. On May 17, 2018, we issued and sold to Starboard $50.0 million of Notes in exchange for $15.0 million in cash and 1,400,000 shares of Common Stock. Later in 2018 we issued an aggregate of $4.0 million in Notes to Starboard, bringing the total balance of the Notes as of June 30, 2020 to $204.0 million.
The Notes contain certain affirmative and restrictive covenants with which we must comply, including covenants with respect to (i) limitations on additional indebtedness, (ii) limitations on liens, (iii) limitations on certain payments, (iv) maintenance of certain minimum cash balances (currently $40.0 million) and (v) the timely filing of certain disclosures with the SEC. We are in compliance with the Notes covenants as of June 30, 2020, inclusive of our restricted cash balances. As discussed above, any breach of these covenants could have a significant negative effect on our liquidity.
For additional information on the Notes, refer to Footnote 4, Long-term Debt.
Secured Term Note
On December 31, 2019, our wholly owned subsidiary, Rentrak B.V., entered into an agreement with several third parties for the Secured Term Note in exchange for gross proceeds of $13.0 million. The Secured Term Note matures on December 31, 2021 and has an annual interest rate of 9.75% that is payable monthly in cash.
The Secured Term Note contains certain affirmative and restrictive covenants with which Rentrak B.V. must comply, including (i) maintenance of a minimum cash collateral balance of $14.8 million, (ii) provision of certain financial statements, (iii) limitations on additional indebtedness and liens, (iv) limitations on repayment of debt, (v) limitations on repurchase of stock, and (vi) limitations on disposition of assets. Rentrak B.V. is in compliance with the Secured Term Note covenants as of June 30, 2020.
For additional information on the Notes, refer to Footnote 4, Long-term Debt.
Operating Activities
Our primary source of cash provided by operating activities is revenues generated from sales of our Ratings and Planning, Analytics and Optimization, and Movies Reporting and Analytics products and services. Our primary uses of cash from operating activities include personnel costs and costs related to data and infrastructure used to develop and maintain our products and services. As discussed above, we have experienced delays in customer payments and requests to modify contractual payment terms in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic and related government mandates and restrictions.
Cash used in operating activities is calculated by adjusting our net loss for changes in working capital, as well as by excluding non-cash items such as: depreciation, non-cash operating lease expense, amortization expense of finance leases and intangible assets, impairment of right-of-use assets, stock-based compensation, deferred tax provision, change in the fair value of financing derivatives, warrants liability and equity securities, accretion of debt discount, and amortization of deferred financing costs.
Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $1.8 million compared to net cash used of $10.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in cash used in operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily attributable to a decrease in the net loss, offset by an increase in cash interest paid on the Notes in 2020 of $9.2 million, as well as a net decrease in operating assets and liabilities of $9.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to a net increase of $16.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The shift from a net increase in operating assets and liabilities to a net decrease is primarily due to payments of our accounts payable and accrual balances from the prior year during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Included in our decrease of operating assets and liabilities is an increase in contract liability related to an upfront payment resulting from a new contract, which increased our cash balance by $9.4 million during the second quarter of 2020.

Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities primarily consists of payments related to capitalized internal-use software costs, purchases of computer and network equipment to support our technical infrastructure, and furniture and equipment. The extent of these investments will be affected by our ability to expand relationships with existing customers, grow our customer base and introduce new digital formats, as well as constraints on cash expenditures in the current economic environment.
Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $7.9 million compared to net cash used in investing activities of $6.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This increase in cash used in investing activities was attributable to an increase of $2.2 million in payments for capitalized internally developed software and a $0.7 million decline in receipts from the sale of an investment in 2019 that did not recur in 2020, partially offset by a $1.8 million decrease in purchases of property and equipment in 2020 compared with 2019.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $1.0 million compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $21.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019. The shift from cash provided by financing activities to cash used in financing activities was largely due to cash proceeds of $19.9 million from the sale of shares of Common Stock and warrants in the Private Placement during 2019 and cash proceeds of $4.3 million from the sale-leaseback transaction during 2019.
Contractual Payment Obligations
We are subject to certain contractual arrangements that are long-term in nature. The information set forth below summarizes our contractual obligations as of June 30, 2020 that are fixed and determinable.

(2) Unconditional purchase obligations with MVPDs include contractual arrangements with MVPDs for the purchase of TV viewing data that is used in our products, primarily reported in the Ratings and Planning solution group. If these arrangements are canceled by the MVPDs, we have the ability to terminate contracts with our end customers. Commitments reflected herein relate to future data obligations after June 30, 2020.
(3) Operating lease obligations represent future lease commitments, primarily for real estate leases, accounted for under ASC 842, Leases.
(4) Finance lease obligations represent future lease commitments, primarily for equipment leases, accounted for under ASC 842, Leases.
(5) We entered into a sale-leaseback arrangement with a vendor in June 2019. See Footnote 4, Long-term Debt for more information.
(6) Other long-term obligations include long-term contracts for the acquisition of viewing data from non-MVPD partners, the right to access cloud-based solutions, and future commitments for our data center arrangements.
Future Capital Requirements
Our ability to generate cash is subject to our performance, general economic conditions, industry trends and other factors, including the timing of cash collections from our customers, trade payables, service of our debt and lease facilities, and expenses from ongoing compliance efforts and legal matters. As discussed above, we have experienced delays in customer payments and requests to modify contractual payment terms in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic and related government mandates and restrictions. To the extent that our existing cash, cash equivalents and operating cash flow, together with savings from cost-reduction initiatives undertaken by our management and any proceeds from the exercise of warrants sold in the Private Placement, are insufficient to fund our future activities and requirements, we may need to raise additional funds through public or private equity or debt financing. The current disruption and volatility in global capital and credit markets could impact our ability to access capital resources on terms acceptable to us or allowable under our current financing arrangements, or at all. If we were to issue additional equity securities in order to raise additional funds or pay interest on the Notes and Secured Term Note, further dilution to existing stockholders could occur.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements (as defined in Item 303 of Regulation S-K) other than certain purchase obligations with MVPDs, which are disclosed in the Contractual Payment Obligations table above.

Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, including (with respect to the three and six months ended June 30, 2020) the ongoing and potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and related government mandates and restrictions. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Our critical accounting policies are those that are both material to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and require management's most subjective and complex judgments. Other than our accounting policies related to the impairment charges recorded for right-of-use and long-lived assets (which relate to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on local real estate markets), there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in our 2019 10-K.
Impairment of Right-of-use ("ROU") and Long-lived Assets
We apply the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, to determine whether our ROU and related long-lived assets may be impaired. We evaluate our ROU and long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. For facility lease ROU and related long-lived assets, we compare the estimated undiscounted cash flows generated by a sublease to the current carrying value of the ROU and related long-lived assets. If the undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of the ROU and related long-lived assets, we record an impairment loss equal to the excess of the ROU and long-lived assets' carrying value over their fair value consistent with other long-lived assets.
We performed an interim analysis as of March 31, 2020, as changes in market conditions indicated the carrying value of certain facility lease ROU and other long-lived assets may not be recoverable, and determined certain ROU assets, and related leasehold improvements, were impaired. We recorded a $4.7 million impairment charge related to our ROU assets, and related leasehold improvements, for the three months ended March 31, 2020, with corresponding adjustments of $2.8 million and $1.9 million to the operating lease ROU asset and property and equipment, net line items, respectively, in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2020. The impairment charge was driven by changes in our projected undiscounted cash flows for certain properties, primarily as a result of changes in the real estate market related to the COVID-19 pandemic that led to an increase in the estimated marketing time, and a reduction of expected receipts, for properties currently on the market for sublease. The fair value of these ROU assets, and related leasehold improvements, was estimated using an income approach and a discount rate of 12.0%.
Although we believe that the carrying values of our long-lived assets are appropriately stated, future changes in strategy or market conditions, significant technological developments or significant changes in legal or regulatory factors could significantly impact these judgments and require adjustments to recorded asset balances.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. We are subject to interest rate risk in connection with the Notes, and we hold derivative financial instruments and have outstanding warrants that are subject to market risk. We also have foreign currency exchange rate risk from our global operations, although we do not believe this risk to be significant. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes in our exposure to market risk during the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to our market risk disclosures set forth in Item 7A, "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" within the 2019 10-K.
Interest rate risk
As a result of having $204.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding, which are convertible into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $31.29 per share (the "Conversion Price"), we are subject to interest rate risk. As of June 30, 2020, the interest rate on the Notes was 12.0% per year. The interest rate reset on January 30, 2020 and will remain at 12.0% (subject to certain conditions) until February 1, 2021 (the "Interest Reset Date"). On the Interest Reset Date, the interest rate will reset based on the then-applicable Conversion Premium which is calculated by dividing the Conversion Price by the arithmetic average of the volume-weighted average trading prices of our Common Stock on each of the ten consecutive trading days immediately preceding the applicable Interest Reset Date (the "VWAP"). The interest rate is then determined in accordance with the table below, which includes theoretical VWAP calculations:
If the Conversion Premium

Interest Reset Date) is:

If the Conversion Premium is between two Conversion Premium amounts in the table above, the interest rate is determined by straight-line interpolation between the interest rates for the higher and lower Conversion Premium amounts.
As discussed in Footnote 4, Long-term Debt, we have the ability, subject to certain conditions, to pay interest on the Notes through the issuance of PIK Interest Shares. We elected to pay the interest due on January 2, 2020, April 1, 2020 and July 1, 2020 in cash.
Interest rate reset derivative financial instrument, warrants liability financial instrument, and foreign currency risk
For discussion of market risk associated with our interest rate reset derivative financial instrument, warrants liability financial instrument, and foreign currency risk, refer to Item 7A, "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" in the 2019 10-K.

ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation required by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as of June 30, 2020. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that as of June 30, 2020, these disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Under Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d), management is required to evaluate, with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, any changes in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during each fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. During the most recent fiscal quarter, there has not occurred any change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. As of the date of this filing, we have not experienced a material change in our internal control over financial reporting related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including with respect to remote work arrangements for our employees. However, we will continue to monitor and assess circumstances related to the COVID-19 pandemic and our workforce to minimize any negative impact on the design and effectiveness of our internal control.
Inherent Limitation on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls
The effectiveness of any system of internal control over financial reporting is subject to inherent limitations, including the exercise of judgment in designing, implementing, operating, and evaluating the controls and procedures, and the inability to eliminate misconduct completely. Accordingly, any system of internal control over financial reporting can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. We intend to continue to monitor and upgrade our internal controls as necessary or appropriate for our business, but we cannot assure that such improvements will be sufficient to provide us with effective internal control over financial reporting in future periods.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
For a discussion of material legal proceedings in which we are involved, please refer to Footnote 9, Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS
An investment in our Common Stock involves a substantial risk of loss. In addition to the information in this report, you should carefully consider the risks discussed in Item 1A "Risk Factors" of our 2019 10-K and Item 1A "Risk Factors" of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 (the "Q1 2020 10-Q") before you decide whether to invest in our Common Stock. The risks identified below and in our 2019 10-K and Q1 2020 10-Q could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results. In that case, the trading price of our Common Stock could decline, and you could lose part or all of your investment. The risks described below and in our 2019 10-K and Q1 2020 10-Q are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results, and may result in the loss of part or all of your investment.
The COVID-19 pandemic and related economic repercussions could have material adverse effects on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused massive disruption and uncertainty in domestic and global economies and particularly in the media, advertising and entertainment industries in which we operate. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may ultimately impact our business is uncertain and will depend in large part on our customers, many of whom have been significantly affected by measures taken to mitigate the spread of the virus. To date, the COVID-19 pandemic and related measures have had some impact on our business, including with respect to the timing of executing new or renewal contracts, the impact of closed movie theaters on our customers, customer payment delays and requests to modify contractual payment terms, particularly in our Movies Reporting and Analytics business. These conditions have negatively impacted our operating cash flows and financial position. If the U.S. and global economies do not recover in the near term, or if recovery is delayed or limited in certain sectors due to longer term changes in consumer behavior, our customers may continue to delay their payments to us, may defer or reduce their purchases from us, or may experience bankruptcy events, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial performance. Due to our largely subscription-based business model, the effects of COVID-19 may not be fully reflected in our results of operations until future periods.
Given the nature and significance of these events, we are unable to enumerate all potential risks to our business from the COVID-19 pandemic. However, we believe that in addition to the impacts described above, other current and potential impacts include, but are not limited to:
notices from customers and vendors arguing that any non-performance under our contracts with them is permitted as a result of force majeure or other reasons;
delays in meeting our payment obligations to vendors or others, which could result in the loss of goods and services necessary to operate our business;
inefficiencies, increased security risks and privacy concerns surrounding remote working arrangements, under which most of our employees are currently operating;
diversion of management time and resources related to business continuity planning;
disruptions from operational changes we have undertaken or may undertake to manage liquidity risk, including lease and contract terminations, workforce reductions, furloughs and other cost-reduction initiatives;
challenges in complying with our existing debt obligations, including quarterly interest payments and covenants requiring the maintenance of certain minimum cash balances;
unfavorable capital and credit market conditions, which could impact our ability to obtain future financing or refinance our existing debt;
heightened sensitivity from government regulators, particularly with respect to privacy compliance and cybersecurity in the current environment;
further impairment of lease-related assets, goodwill or other intangible assets; and

litigation risk and possible loss contingencies related to COVID-19 and its impact, including with respect to our debt facilities, leases, commercial contracts, employee matters and insurance arrangements.
We cannot predict the duration or magnitude of the COVID-19 pandemic or its effects on our business or financial performance at this time; nor can we guarantee that any measures we take to mitigate the impact will be successful. To the extent COVID-19 continues to adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operation or cash flows, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in the "Risk Factors" section of our 2019 10-K.
The COVID-19 pandemic and related economic repercussions have impacted our cash flows, which could impact our ability to comply with the restrictive covenants in the agreements governing our debt.
The agreements governing our debt contain affirmative and negative covenants that limit our ability to take certain actions. Our Notes also require us to maintain a $40.0 million minimum cash balance, which we calculate based on our total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. Failure to meet our obligations under the Notes could lead to an Event of Default (as defined in the Notes), which could have important consequences including, potentially, forcing us into bankruptcy or liquidation.
The COVID-19 pandemic is impacting the timing and terms of new and renewal contracts and is creating customer payment delays and requests to modify contractual payment terms, particularly in our Movies Reporting and Analytics business. These conditions have negatively impacted our liquidity and cash flows and could have a more significant impact in future periods. As of June 30, 2020, we had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaling $55.5 million, including $19.6 million in restricted cash, and we were in compliance with the covenants under the Notes and the Secured Term Note; however, in the second quarter of 2020, the holders of the Notes questioned our compliance with the minimum cash balance requirements therein. If the U.S. and global economies do not recover in the near term, or if recovery is delayed or limited in certain sectors due to longer term changes in consumer behavior, our cash flows could be further impacted, which could impact our ability to satisfy the covenants in the agreements governing our debt, including the minimum cash balance requirement in the Notes.

Issuance Date: January 16, 2018Original Principal Amount: U.S. $[●]
(Reflects the amendments dated May 17, 2018, August 8, 2018, November 13, 2018 and November 6, 2019)

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, comScore, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), hereby promises to pay to [BUYER] or registered assigns (the "Holder") in cash and/or in shares of Common Stock (as defined below) the amount set out above as the Original Principal Amount (as reduced pursuant to the terms hereof pursuant to redemption, conversion or otherwise, the "Principal") when due, whether upon the Maturity Date (as defined below), acceleration, redemption or otherwise (in each case in accordance with the terms hereof) and to pay interest ("Interest") on any outstanding Principal at the applicable Interest Rate from the date set out above as the Issuance Date (the "Issuance Date") until the same becomes due and payable, whether upon an Interest Date (as defined below), the Maturity Date, acceleration, conversion, redemption or otherwise (in each case in accordance with the terms hereof). This Senior Secured Convertible Note (including all Senior Secured Convertible Notes issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, this "Note") is one of an issue of Senior Secured Convertible Notes issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement on the Initial Closing



Date (collectively, the "Notes" and such other Senior Secured Convertible Notes, the "Other Notes"). Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 31.
(1)PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL; PREPAYMENT. On the Maturity Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash representing all outstanding Principal, any accrued and unpaid Interest and any accrued and unpaid Late Charges (as defined in Section 24(b)) on such Principal and Interest. The "Maturity Date" shall be January 16, 2022, as may be extended at the option of the Holder (i) in the event that, and for so long as, an Event of Default (as defined in Section 4(a)) shall have occurred and be continuing on the Maturity Date (as may be extended pursuant to this Section 1) or any event shall have occurred and be continuing on the Maturity Date (as may be extended pursuant to this Section 1) that with the passage of time and the failure to cure would result in an Event of Default and (ii) through the date that is ten (10) Business Days after the consummation of a Change of Control in the event that a Change of Control is publicly announced or a Change of Control Notice (as defined in Section 5(b)) is delivered prior to the Maturity Date. Other than as specifically permitted by this Note, the Company may not prepay any portion of the outstanding Principal, accrued and unpaid Interest or accrued and unpaid Late Charges on Principal and Interest, if any.
(2)INTEREST.
(a)Interest on this Note shall commence accruing on the Issuance Date at the Interest Rate and shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and twelve 30-day months and shall be payable in arrears for each Calendar Quarter on the first (1st) Business Day of each Calendar Quarter after the Issuance Date (each, an "Interest Date").
(b)Interest shall be payable on each Interest Date, to the record holder of this Note on the applicable Interest Date, in whole or in part, in shares of Common Stock ("Interest Shares") so long as there is no Equity Conditions Failure (other than as a result of the delivery of an Interest Blocker Notice (as defined below)) occurring on the applicable Interest Date; provided, however, that the Company may, at its option following written notice to each holder of the Notes and any Additional Notes on or prior to the applicable Interest Notice Due Date (the date such notice is delivered to the Holder and holders of Other Notes and Additional Notes, the "Interest Notice Date"), elect to pay Interest on any Interest Date in cash ("Cash Interest") or in a combination of Cash Interest and Interest Shares. Each Interest Election Notice shall specify the amount or percentage of Interest that the Company will pay in respect of the Interest Date as Cash Interest and Interest Shares which amounts or percentages, as applicable, when added together, must equal the applicable Interest (or 100% thereof, as applicable) due on such Interest Date. If the Company elects (or is deemed to have elected by operation of this Section 2) the payment of applicable Interest in Interest Shares, in whole or in part, and an Equity Conditions Failure (other than the delivery to the Company of an Interest Blocker Notice) occurs at any time prior to the applicable Interest Date that is expected to last through the applicable Interest Date (which is not waived in writing by the Holder), the Company shall provide the Holder a written notice to that effect by no later than the Trading Day immediately following the Company having knowledge of such Equity Conditions Failure, indicating that unless the Holder waives the Equity Conditions Failure in writing, the applicable
- 2 -



portion of Interest as to which the Holder did not waive the Equity Conditions shall be paid as Cash Interest. If any portion of Interest for a particular Interest Date shall be paid in Interest Shares, then on the applicable Interest Date, the Company shall issue to the Holder, such number of shares of Common Stock equal to (a) the amount of Interest payable on the applicable Interest Date in Interest Shares divided by (b) the Interest Conversion Price as in effect on the applicable Interest Date. All Interest Shares shall be fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole share in accordance with Section 3(a)). Except as expressly provided in this Section 2, the Company shall pay the applicable Interest in the same ratio of Interest Shares and Cash Interest on the Notes, the Other Notes and any Additional Notes. The Company shall pay any and all taxes that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery to the Holder of shares of Common Stock as Interest pursuant to this Section 2; provided, however, that the Holder shall be solely responsible for any transfer taxes if the Interest Shares are to be registered, issued or delivered in the name of a Person other than the Holder.
(c)Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) the Company elects (or is deemed to have elected by operation of this Section 2) to pay all or any portion of Interest due on any Interest Date in Interest Shares, (ii) the Company is permitted pursuant to this Section 2 to pay all or any portion of Interest due on such Interest Date in Interest Shares if not for the delivery to the Company of an Interest Blocker Notice and (iii) within two (2) Business Days following the applicable Interest Notice Date the Holder has delivered to the Company a written notice (an "Interest Blocker Notice") (A) stating that such payment of Interest in Interest Shares would result in a violation of Section 3(d), (B) specifying the portion of the applicable Interest with respect to which the payment in Interest Shares would result in a violation of Section 3(d) if such payment of Interest in Interest Shares were effected (such amount so specified is referred to herein as the "Designated Interest Amount") and (C) requesting the Company hold the Designated Interest Amount issuable to the Holder in abeyance for the Holder until such time or times as its right thereto would not result in the Holder and its other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the Company shall promptly upon written notice from the Holder deliver such Interest Shares to the extent as if there had been no such limitation. Any Interest Shares held in abeyance pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2(c) shall satisfy the Company's requirement to pay the applicable Interest corresponding to the number of Interest Shares so held in abeyance until the Company receives a notice from the Holder instructing the Company that the Maximum Percentage no longer prevents the Holder from receiving such Interest Shares.
(d)Prior to the payment of Interest on an Interest Date, Interest on this Note shall accrue at the Interest Rate and be payable by way of inclusion of the Interest in the Conversion Amount (as defined in Section 3(b)(i)) on each Conversion Date (as defined in Section 3(c)(i)) in accordance with Section 3(b)(i) and/or on each Redemption Date.
(3)CONVERSION OF NOTES. At any time or times after the first (1st) Trading Day following the Pricing Date (as defined in Section 3(b)(ii)) (the "Initial Convertibility Date"), this Note shall be convertible into shares of Common Stock, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3.
- 3 -



(a)Conversion Right. Subject to the provisions of Section 3(d), at any time or times on or after the Initial Convertibility Date, the Holder shall be entitled to convert all or any portion of the outstanding and unpaid Conversion Amount into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock in accordance with Section 3(c), at the Conversion Rate (as defined below). The Company shall not issue any fraction of a share of Common Stock upon any conversion. If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company shall round such fraction of a share of Common Stock to the nearest whole share. The Company shall pay any and all transfer, stamp and similar taxes that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Common Stock upon conversion of any Conversion Amount; provided, however, that the Holder shall be solely responsible for any transfer taxes if the shares of Common Stock registrable, issuable or deliverable pursuant to a Conversion Notice are to be registered, issued or delivered in the name of a Person other than the Holder.
(b)Conversion Rate. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any Conversion Amount pursuant to Section 3(a) shall be determined by dividing (x) such Conversion Amount by (y) the Conversion Price (the "Conversion Rate").
(i)"Conversion Amount" means the sum of (A) the portion of the Principal to be converted, redeemed or otherwise with respect to which this determination is being made, (B) accrued and unpaid Interest with respect to such Principal and (C) accrued and unpaid Late Charges, if any, with respect to such Principal and Interest.
(ii)"Conversion Price" means, as of any Conversion Date or other date of determination, a price per share equal to the greater of: (A) 130% of the arithmetic average of the Weighted Average Price of the Common Stock on each Trading Day during the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days commencing on the later of (x) the Initial Closing Date and (y) the Public Announcement Date (the last date in such period, the "Pricing Date") (all such determinations to be appropriately adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, stock combination, reclassification or other similar transaction occurring during such period) and (B) $28.00, subject to adjustment as provided herein and pursuant to Section 4(q) of the Securities Purchase Agreement.
(c)Mechanics of Conversion.
(i)Optional Conversion. To convert any Conversion Amount into shares of Common Stock on any date on or after the Initial Convertibility Date (a "Conversion Date"), the Holder shall (A) deliver to the Company on such date, a copy of an executed notice of conversion substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (the "Conversion Notice") and (B) if required by Section 3(c)(iii), but without delaying the Company's requirement to deliver shares of Common Stock on the applicable Share Delivery Date (as defined below), surrender this Note to a common carrier for delivery to the Company as soon as practicable on or following such date (or an indemnification undertaking with respect to this Note in the case of its loss, theft or destruction). No ink-original Conversion Notice shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Conversion Notice be required. On or before the first (1st) Business Day following the date of receipt of a Conversion
- 4 -



Notice, the Company shall transmit a confirmation of receipt of such Conversion Notice to the Holder and the Company's transfer agent (the "Transfer Agent"). On or before the second (2nd) Trading Day following the date of receipt of a Conversion Notice (a "Share Delivery Date"), the Company shall, (x) if the Transfer Agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled to the Holder's or its designee's balance account with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal At Custodian system or (y) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, issue and deliver to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled. If this Note is physically surrendered for conversion as required by Section 3(c)(iii) and the outstanding Principal of this Note is greater than the Principal portion of the Conversion Amount being converted, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than three (3) Business Days after receipt of this Note and at its own expense, issue and deliver to the Holder a new Note (in accordance with Section 18(d)) representing the outstanding Principal not converted. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of this Note shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock on the Conversion Date, irrespective of the date such shares of Common Stock are credited to the Holder's account with DTC or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such shares of Common Stock, as the case may be.
(ii)Company's Failure to Timely Convert. If the Company shall fail on or prior to the applicable Share Delivery Date to issue and deliver a certificate to the Holder (if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program), or credit the Holder's balance account with DTC (if the Transfer Agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program), for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder's conversion of any Conversion Amount (a "Conversion Failure"), then the Holder, upon written notice to the Company, may void its Conversion Notice with respect to, and retain or have returned, as the case may be, any portion of this Note that has not been converted pursuant to such Conversion Notice; provided that the voiding of a Conversion Notice shall not affect the Company's obligations to make any payments which may have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 3(c)(ii) or otherwise. In addition to the foregoing, if the Company shall fail on or prior to the applicable Share Delivery Date to issue and deliver a certificate to the Holder, if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, or credit the Holder's balance account with DTC, if the Transfer Agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder's conversion of any Conversion Amount or on any date of the Company's obligation to deliver shares of Common Stock as contemplated pursuant to clause (y) below, and if after such Trading Day the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company (a "Buy-In"), then the Company shall, within three (3) Trading Days after the Holder's request and in the Holder's discretion, either (x) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased
- 5 -



(the "Buy-In Price"), at which point the Company's obligation to issue and deliver such certificate or certificates or credit the Holder's balance account with DTC for the shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is otherwise entitled upon the Holder's conversion of the applicable Conversion Amount shall terminate, or (y) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such shares of Common Stock or credit the Holder's balance account with DTC for such shares of Common Stock and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Common Stock, times (B) the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the applicable Conversion Date. Nothing herein shall limit the Holder's right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company's failure to timely deliver shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
(iii)Registration; Book-Entry. The Company shall maintain a register (the "Register") for the recordation of the names and addresses of the holders of each Note and the Principal amount of the Notes (and stated interest thereon) held by such holders (the "Registered Notes"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The Company and the holders of the Notes shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of a Note for all purposes, including, without limitation, the right to receive payments of Principal and Interest, if any, hereunder, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. A Registered Note may be assigned or sold in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register. Upon its receipt of a request to assign or sell all or part of any Registered Note by the Holder, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Company shall record the information contained therein in the Register and issue one or more new Registered Notes in the same aggregate Principal amount as the Principal amount of the surrendered Registered Note to the designated assignee or transferee pursuant to Section 17. The Company shall be entitled to act and rely upon any such request without inquiry as to the genuineness thereof, and without liability of any type or nature arising therefrom. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3(c)(iii), the Holder may assign the Note or any portion thereof to an Affiliate of such Holder or a Related Fund of such Holder without delivering a request to assign or sell such Note to the Company and the recordation of such assignment or sale in the Register (a "Related Party Assignment"); provided, that (x) the Company may continue to deal solely with such assigning or selling Holder unless and until such Holder has delivered a request, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to assign or sell such Note or portion thereof to the Company for recordation in the Register; and (y) such assigning or selling Holder shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Company, maintain a register (the "Related Party Register") comparable to the Register on behalf of the Company, and any such assignment or sale shall be effective upon recordation of such assignment or sale in the Related Party Register. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of any portion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company unless (A) the full Conversion Amount represented by this Note is being converted or (B) the Holder has provided the Company with prior written notice (which notice may be included in a Conversion Notice) requesting reissuance
- 6 -



of this Note upon physical surrender of this Note. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the Principal, Interest and Late Charges, if any, converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other methods, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon conversion except as provided above.
(iv)Pro Rata Conversion; Disputes. In the event that the Company receives a Conversion Notice relating to this Note and one or more holders of Other Notes or Additional Notes for the same Conversion Date and the Company can convert some, but not all, of such portions of this Note, the Other Notes and the Additional Notes submitted for conversion, the Company, subject to Section 3(d), shall convert from the Holder and each holder of Other Notes and Additional Notes electing to have this Note, the Other Notes or Additional Notes converted on such date a pro rata amount of such holder's portion of the Note, its Other Notes and/or Additional Notes submitted for conversion based on the Principal amount of this Note, the Other Notes and/or Additional Notes submitted for conversion on such date by such holder relative to the aggregate Principal amount of this Note and all Other Notes and Additional Notes submitted for conversion on such date. In the event of a dispute as to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder in connection with a conversion of this Note, the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock not in dispute and such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with Section 23.
(d)Beneficial Ownership Limitation. The Company shall not deliver any shares of Common Stock pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Note, and the Holder shall not have the right to any shares otherwise issuable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Note and any such delivery shall be null and void and treated as if never made, to the extent that, immediately after giving effect to such issuance, the Holder together with its other Attribution Parties collectively would beneficially own in excess of the Maximum Percentage of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its other Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and all of its other Attribution Parties plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of this Note with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, nonconverted portion of this Note beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its other Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preferred stock or warrants, including any Additional Notes and Warrants) beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its other Attribution Parties subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section 3(d). For purposes of this Section 3(d), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. For purposes of determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock the Holder may acquire pursuant to the terms of this Note without exceeding the Maximum Percentage, the Holder, absent other knowledge, may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (i) the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly
- 7 -



Report on Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the SEC, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (iii) any other written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (the "Reported Outstanding Share Number"). If the Company receives a Conversion Notice from the Holder at a time when the actual number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the Company shall notify the Holder in writing of the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding and, to the extent that such Conversion Notice would otherwise cause the Holder's beneficial ownership, as determined pursuant to this Section 3(d), to exceed the Maximum Percentage, the Holder shall, within one (1) Business Day thereafter, notify the Company of a reduced number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased pursuant to such Conversion Notice. The number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Note, by the Holder and any other Attribution Party since the date as of which the Reported Outstanding Share Number was reported. In the event that the issuance of shares of Common Stock to the Holder upon conversion of this Note would result in the Holder and its other Attribution Parties being deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, more than the Maximum Percentage of the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the number of shares by which the Holder's and its other Attribution Parties' aggregate beneficial ownership would exceed the Maximum Percentage (the "Excess Shares") shall be deemed null and void and any portion of the Conversion Amount so converted shall be reinstated, and the Holder shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the Excess Shares. Upon delivery of a written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% as specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase in the Maximum Percentage will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and its other Attribution Parties and not to any other holder of Notes that is not an Attribution Party of the Holder. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 3(d) to the extent necessary to correct this paragraph (or any portion of this paragraph) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation contained in this Section 3(d) or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitation contained in this paragraph may not be waived and shall apply to a successor holder of this Note.
(4)RIGHTS UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT.
(a)Event of Default. Each of the following events shall constitute an "Event of Default":
(i) the failure of the applicable Registration Statement required to be filed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement to be filed or declared effective within the applicable time periods specified in the Registration Rights Agreement, or, at any time while the applicable Registration Statement is required to be maintained effective pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, the effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement lapses for any reason (including, without limitation, the issuance of a stop order) and such lapse
- 8 -



continues for a period of greater than ten (10) consecutive Trading Days or for more than an aggregate of twenty (20) Trading Days in any 365-day period or such Registration Statement is unavailable to any holder of the Notes for sale of all of such holder's Registrable Securities in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement (unless such unavailability is during an Allowable Grace Period (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement));

(xv) a false or inaccurate certification (including a false or inaccurate deemed certification) by the Company that the Equity Conditions are satisfied or that there has been no Equity Conditions Failure or as to whether any Event of Default has occurred (in each case other than any Equity Conditions Failure arising solely as a result of the delivery to the Company of an Interest Blocker Notice);

To the extent this Note is subject to redemption by the Company pursuant to this Section 4(b), this Note shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price equal to the greater of (i) the product of (x) the Redemption Premium and (y) the Conversion Amount being redeemed and (ii) solely if there is an Equity Conditions Failure (that is not waived in writing by the Holder) during the period from the applicable Event of Default Redemption Notice Date through and including the applicable Event of Default Redemption Date (as defined in Section 10(a)), the product of (x) the Conversion Rate with respect to the Conversion Amount being redeemed and (y) the quotient determined by dividing (I) the greatest Closing Sale Price of the shares of Common Stock during the period beginning on the date immediately preceding such Event of Default and ending on the date the Holder delivers the Event of Default Redemption Notice, by (II) the lowest Conversion Price in effect during such period(the "Event of Default Redemption Price"). Redemptions required by this Section 4(b) shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 10. To the extent redemptions required by this Section 4(b) are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of the Note by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4, but subject to Section 3(d), until the Event of Default Redemption Price (together with any interest thereon) is paid in full, the Conversion Amount
- 11 -



submitted for redemption under this Section 4(b) (together with any interest thereon) may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Common Stock pursuant to Section 3. Any such converted Conversion Amount shall reduce the Event of Default Redemption payment by an equivalent amount. The parties hereto agree that in the event of the Company's redemption of this Note under this Section 4(b), the Holder's damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties' inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any Event of Default redemption premium due under this Section 4(b) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holder's actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty.
(5)RIGHTS UPON FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTION AND CHANGE OF CONTROL.
(a)Assumption and Corporate Events. Upon the consummation of any Fundamental Transaction, the Company shall cause any Successor Entity or Successor Entities to jointly and severally succeed to, and be added to the term "Company" under this Note (so that from and after the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, each and every provision of this Note referring to the "Company" shall refer instead to each of the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally), and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally with the Company, may exercise every right and power of the Company prior thereto and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities shall assume all of the obligations of the Company prior thereto under this Note with the same effect as if the Company and such Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, had been named as the Company in this Note. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the occurrence or consummation of any Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of shares of Common Stock become entitled to receive securities, cash, assets or other property with respect to or in exchange for shares of Common Stock (a "Corporate Event"), the Company shall provide that it shall be a required condition to the occurrence or consummation of such Corporate Event that the Holder will have the right to receive upon conversion of this Note at any time after the occurrence or consummation of the Corporate Event, shares of Common Stock or capital stock of a Successor Entity or, if so elected by the Holder, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) purchasable upon the conversion of this Note prior to such Corporate Event, such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights and any shares of Common Stock) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence or consummation of such Corporate Event or the record, eligibility or other determination date for the event resulting in such Corporate Event, had this Note been converted immediately prior to such Corporate Event or the record, eligibility or other determination date for the event resulting in such Corporate Event (without regard to any limitations on conversion of this Note). The provisions of this Section 5(a) shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and Corporate Events.
(b)Redemption Right. As soon as practicable following the public announcement of the consummation of a Change of Control, the Company shall deliver written
- 12 -



notice thereof to the Holder (a "Change of Control Notice"). At any time during the period beginning on the earlier to occur of (x) the Holder becoming aware of the consummation of a Change of Control and (y) the Holder's receipt of a Change of Control Notice and ending thirty five (35) Trading Days after the date of the consummation of such Change of Control, the Holder may require the Company to redeem (a "Change of Control Redemption") all or any portion of this Note by delivering written notice thereof ("Change of Control Redemption Notice" and the date the Holder delivers a Change of Control Redemption Notice to the Company, a "Change of Control Redemption Notice Date") to the Company, which Change of Control Redemption Notice shall indicate the Conversion Amount the Holder is electing to require the Company to redeem. The portion of this Note subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 5(b) shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price equal to the sum of (i) the greater of (x) 110% of the Conversion Amount being redeemed and (y) solely if (a) the applicable Change of Control is a Make-Whole Change of Control or (b) there is an Equity Conditions Failure (that is not waived in writing by the Holder) during the period from the applicable Change of Control Redemption Notice Date through and including the applicable Change of Control Redemption Date (as defined in Section 10(a)), the product of (I) the Conversion Amount being redeemed and (II) the quotient determined by dividing (A) the greatest Closing Sale Price of the shares of Common Stock during the period beginning on the date immediately preceding the earlier to occur of (1) the consummation of the Change of Control and (2) the public announcement of such Change of Control and ending on the date the Holder delivers the Change of Control Redemption Notice, by (B) the lowest Conversion Price in effect during such period, and (ii) if the applicable Change of Control is a Make-Whole Change of Control, the Make-Whole Change of Control Premium (the "Change of Control Redemption Price"). Redemptions required by this Section 5 shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 10 and shall have priority to payments to stockholders in connection with a Change of Control. To the extent redemptions required by this Section 5(b) are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of the Note by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5, but subject to Section 3(d), until the Change of Control Redemption Price (together with any interest thereon) is paid in full, the Conversion Amount submitted for redemption under this Section 5(b) (together with any interest thereon) may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Common Stock pursuant to Section 3. Any such converted Conversion Amount shall reduce the Conversion Amount submitted for redemption under this Section 5(b) by an equivalent amount. The parties hereto agree that in the event of the Company's redemption of any portion of the Note under this Section 5(b), the Holder's damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties' inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any Change of Control redemption premium due under this Section 5(b) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holder's actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty.
(c)Qualifying Change of Control Redemption Right. Notwithstanding any Holder’s right to require a Change of Control Redemption, delivery of any Change of Control Redemption Notice or anything else to the contrary in the Notes, contemporaneously with, or within three (3) Business Days subsequent to, the consummation of
- 13 -



a Qualifying Change of Control, the Company may redeem this Note in full in cash at a price equal to the sum of (i) the aggregate outstanding Principal amount of this Note as of the Qualifying Early Redemption Date (as defined in Section 10(a)), (ii) Interest accrued on such Principal amount as of the Qualifying Early Redemption Date, (iii) any other amounts owed pursuant to the terms of this Note, including, without limitation, any Late Charges, as of the Qualifying Early Redemption Date and (iv) 20% (the “Qualifying Early Redemption Premium”) of the aggregate outstanding Principal amount of this Note as of the Qualifying Early Redemption Date (for the avoidance of doubt, the Qualifying Early Redemption Premium shall only be applied to the aggregate outstanding Principal amount of this Note as of the Qualifying Early Redemption Date) (the “Qualifying Early Redemption Price”). If the Company elects to redeem this Note in connection with a Qualifying Change of Control, the Company shall (i) be deemed by virtue of public announcement of such Qualifying Change of Control to have delivered an irrevocable notice thereof to the Holder (a “Qualifying Early Redemption Notice”) unless the Company has provided earlier or contemporaneous written notice to the Holder that the Company does not elect to redeem this Note in connection with such Qualifying Change of Control and (ii) simultaneously take the same action with respect to all Other Notes and Additional Notes then outstanding. Redemptions required by this Section 5(c) shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 10 and shall have priority to payments to stockholders in connection with a Qualifying Change of Control. To the extent redemptions required by this Section 5(c) are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of the Note by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5, but subject to Section 3(d), until the Qualifying Early Redemption Price (together with any interest thereon) is paid in full, the Conversion Amount submitted for redemption under this Section 5(c) (together with any interest thereon) may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Common Stock of comScore, Inc. pursuant to Section 3 (for the avoidance of doubt, in the event any portion of this Note remains outstanding more than two (2) Business Days after the consummation of a Qualifying Change of Control, Section 5(a) shall apply and the Holder shall, among other things, be entitled to convert this Note into the capital stock of the Successor Entity in accordance with Section 5(a)). Any such converted Conversion Amount shall reduce the Conversion Amount subject to redemption under this Section 5(c) by an equivalent amount. The parties hereto agree that in the event of the Company’s redemption of any portion of the Note under this Section 5(c), the Holder’s damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any Change of Control redemption premium due under this Section 5(c) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holder’s actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty. Upon the Company’s request and at the Company’s sole cost and expense, the Holder agrees to provide a customary payoff letter, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Holder, confirming the payoff of all obligations under this Note and the release of all liens securing such obligations, which confirmations shall be contingent on the Holder’s receipt of the payment in full of the applicable Qualifying Early Redemption Price, and which payoff and release shall occur automatically upon such payment without further action by the Holder.

(6)ADJUSTMENTS TO THE CONVERSION PRICE.
(a)Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock or Stock Dividend. If the Company issues solely shares of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on all or substantially all shares of the Common Stock, or if the Company effects a stock split or a stock combination of the Common Stock (in each case excluding an issuance solely pursuant to a Fundamental Transaction or other Corporate Event, as to which the provisions set forth in Section 5 will apply), then the Conversion Price will be adjusted based on the following formula:
CP1 = CP0 * OS0___
OS1
where:
CP0 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately before the open of business on the effective date of such stock split or stock combination, as applicable;
CP1 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or the open of business on such effective date, as applicable;
OS0 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or effective date, as applicable; and
OS1 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, stock split or stock combination.
For the avoidance of doubt, pursuant to the definition of CP1 above, any adjustment to the Conversion Price made pursuant to this Section 6(a) will become effective immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or the open of business on such effective date, as applicable. If any dividend, distribution, stock split or stock combination of the type described in this Section 6(a) is declared or announced, but not so paid or made, then the Conversion Price, if previously adjusted, will be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors of the Company determines not to pay such dividend or distribution or to effect such stock split or stock combination, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect had such dividend, distribution, stock split or stock combination not been declared or announced.
(b)Rights, Options and Warrants. If the Company distributes, to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock, rights, options or warrants entitling such holders, for a period of not more than sixty (60) calendar days after the record date of such distribution, to
- 15 -



subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the Closing Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date such distribution is publicly announced, then the Conversion Price will be decreased based on the following formula:
CP1 = CP0 * OS + Y___
OS + X
where:
CP0 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
CP1 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;
OS = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;
X = the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and
Y = a number of shares of Common Stock obtained by dividing (x) the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants by (y) the average of the Closing Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date such distribution is announced.
For the avoidance of doubt, any adjustment to the Conversion Price made pursuant to this Section 6(b) will be made successively whenever any such rights, options or warrants are issued and, pursuant to the definition of CP1 above, will become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for the applicable distribution. To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants (including as a result of such rights, options or warrants not being exercised), the Conversion Price, if previously adjusted, will be readjusted effective as of such expiration date to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect had the decrease to the Conversion Price for such distribution been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered upon exercise of such rights, option or warrants. To the extent such rights, options or warrants are not so distributed, the Conversion Price will be readjusted effective as of the date the Board of Directors of the Company determines not to distribute such rights, options or warrants, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect had the Ex-Dividend Date for the distribution of such rights, options or warrants not occurred.
- 16 -



For purposes of this Section 6(b), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle holders of Common Stock to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the Closing Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date of the distribution of such rights, options or warrants is announced, and in determining the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, there will be taken into account any consideration the Company receives for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise thereof, with the value of such consideration, if not cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company.
(c)Spin-Offs and Other Distributed Property.
        (i) Distributions Other than Spin-Offs. If the Company distributes shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness or other assets or property of the Company, or rights, options or warrants to acquire Capital Stock of the Company or other securities, to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, excluding:
(u) rights issued in the Rights Offering (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement);
(v) dividends, distributions, rights, options or warrants for which an adjustment to the Conversion Price is required pursuant to Section 6(a) or 6(b);
(w) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash for which an adjustment to the Conversion Price is required pursuant to Section 6(d);
(x) rights issued or otherwise distributed pursuant to a stockholder rights plan, except to the extent provided in Section 6(g);
(y) Spin-Offs for which an adjustment to the Conversion Price is required pursuant to Section 6(c)(ii); and
(z) a distribution solely pursuant to a Corporate Event, as to which the provisions set forth in Section 5 will apply,
then the Conversion Price will be decreased based on the following formula:
CP1 = CP0 * SP - FMV___
SP
where:
- 17 -



CR0 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
CR1 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;
SP = the average of the Closing Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before such Ex-Dividend Date; and
FMV = the fair market value (determined in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company), as of such Ex-Dividend Date, of the shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets, property, rights, options or warrants distributed per share of Common Stock pursuant to such distribution;
provided, however, that if FMV is equal to or greater than SP, or if the difference between FMV and SP is less than one dollar ($1.00), then, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment to the Conversion Price, each Holder will receive, at the same time and on the same terms as holders of Common Stock, the amount and kind of shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets, property, rights, options or warrants that such Holder would have received if such Holder had owned, on such record date, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the principal amount of Notes held by such Holder on the record date for such distribution divided by the Conversion Price in effect on such record date.
For the avoidance of doubt, pursuant to the definition of CP1 above, any adjustment to the Conversion Price made pursuant to this Section 6(c)(i) will become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for the applicable distribution. To the extent such distribution is not so paid or made, or such rights, options or warrants are not exercised before their expiration (including as a result of being redeemed or terminated), the Conversion Price, if previously adjusted, will be readjusted effective as of the date the Board of Directors of the Company determines not to make or pay such distribution, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect had the adjustment been made on the basis of only the distribution, if any, actually made or paid or on the basis of the distribution of only such rights, options or warrants, if any, that were actually exercised, if at all. Subject to Section 6(g), if any such rights, options or warrants are exercisable only upon the occurrence of certain triggering events, then the Conversion Price will not be adjusted pursuant to this Section 6(c)(i) until the earliest of these triggering events occurs.
(ii) Spin-Offs. If the Company distributes or dividends shares of stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to an
- 18 -



Affiliate, a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Company to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, and such stock or equity interest is listed or quoted (or will be listed or quoted upon the consummation of the transaction) on a U.S. national securities exchange (a "Spin-Off"), then the Conversion Price will be increased based on the following formula:
CP1 = CP0 * MP ___
MP + FMV
where:
CP0 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off;
CP1 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;
FMV = the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the stock or equity interests distributed per share of Common Stock in such Spin-Off over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period (the "Spin-Off Valuation Period") beginning on, and including, such Ex-Dividend Date (such average to be determined as if references to Common Stock in the definitions of Closing Sale Price and Trading Day were instead references to the number or units of such stock or equity interests distributed per share of Common Stock in such Spin-Off); and
MP = the average of the Closing Sale Prices per share of Common Stock over the Spin-Off Valuation Period.
The adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 6(c)(ii) will be calculated as of the close of business on the last Trading Day of the Spin-Off Valuation Period but will be given effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for the Spin-Off, with retroactive effect. If this Note is converted and the Conversion Date occurs during the Spin-Off Valuation Period, then, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment to the Conversion Price, the Holder will receive, at the same time and on the same terms as holders of Common Stock, the number of shares of stock or other equity interests that such Holder would have received if such Holder had owned, on such record date, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the principal amount of Notes held by such Holder on the record date for Spin-Off divided by the Conversion Price in effect on such record date.
To the extent any dividend or distribution of the type set forth in this Section 6(c)(ii) is declared but not made or paid, the Conversion Price, if previously adjusted, will be readjusted effective as of the date the Board of Directors of the Company determines not to make or pay such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect had the
- 19 -



adjustment been made on the basis of only the dividend or distribution, if any, actually made or paid.
(d)Cash Dividends or Distributions. If any cash dividend or distribution is made to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock, then the Conversion Price will be decreased based on the following formula:
CP1 = CP0 * SP ___
SP - D
where:
CP0 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;
CR1 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;
SP = the Closing Sale Price per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately before such Ex-Dividend Date; and
D = the cash amount distributed per share of Common Stock in such dividend or distribution;
provided, however, that if D is equal to or greater than SP, or if the difference between D and SP is less than one dollar ($1.00), then, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment to the Conversion Price, the Holder will receive, at the same time and on the same terms as holders of Common Stock, the amount of cash that such Holder would have received if such Holder had owned, on such record date, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the principal amount of Notes held by such Holder on the record date for such dividend or distribution divided by the Conversion Price in effect on such record date. For the avoidance of doubt, pursuant to the definition of CP1 above, any adjustment to the Conversion Price made pursuant to this Section 6(d) will become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for the applicable dividend or distribution.
         To the extent any such dividend or distribution is declared but not made or paid, the Conversion Price, if previously adjusted, will be readjusted effective as of the date the Board of Directors of the Company determines not to make or pay such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect had the adjustment been made on the basis of only the dividend or distribution, if any, actually made or paid.
- 20 -



(e)Tender Offers or Exchange Offers. If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries makes a payment in respect of a tender offer or exchange offer for shares of Common Stock, and the value (as determined as of the Expiration Time (as defined below) in the judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company) of the cash and other consideration paid per share of Common Stock in such tender or exchange offer exceeds the Closing Sale Price per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately after the last date (the "Expiration Date") on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (as it may be amended), then the Conversion Price will be decreased based on the following formula:
CP1 = CP0 * OS0 x SP ___
AC + (SP x OS1)
where:
CP0 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the time (the "Expiration Time") such tender or exchange offer expires;
CP1 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately after the Expiration Time;
AC = the aggregate value (as determined as of the Expiration Time in the judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company) of all cash and other consideration paid for shares of Common Stock purchased in such tender or exchange offer;
OS0 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before the Expiration Time (before giving effect to the purchase of all shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer);
OS1 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the Expiration Time (excluding all shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); and
SP = the average of the Closing Sale Prices of Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period (the "Tender/Exchange Offer Valuation Period") beginning on, and including, the Trading Day immediately after the Expiration Date.
The adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 6(e) will be calculated as of the close of business on the last Trading Day of the Tender/Exchange Offer Valuation Period but will be given effect immediately after the Expiration Time, with retroactive effect. If this Note is converted and the Conversion Date occurs during the Tender/Exchange
- 21 -



Offer Valuation Period, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Notes, the Company will, if necessary, delay the settlement of such conversion until the second (2nd) Business Day after the last day of the Tender/Exchange Offer Valuation Period. To the extent such tender or exchange offer is announced but not consummated (including as a result of the Company being precluded from consummating such tender or exchange offer under applicable law), or any purchases or exchanges of shares of Common Stock in such tender or exchange offer are rescinded, the Conversion Price, if previously adjusted, will be readjusted effective as of the date the Board of Directors of the Company determines not to consummate such offer, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect had the adjustment been made on the basis of only the purchases or exchanges of shares of Common Stock, if any, actually made, and not rescinded, in such tender or exchange offer.
(f)No Adjustments in Certain Cases. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6, the Company will not be obligated to adjust the Conversion Price on account of a transaction or other event otherwise requiring an adjustment pursuant to this Section 6 (other than a stock dividend, distribution, split or combination of the type set forth in Section 6(a) or a tender or exchange offer of the type set forth in Section 6(e)) if each Holder participates, at the same time and on the same terms as holders of Common Stock, and solely by virtue of being a Holder of Notes, in such transaction or event without having to convert such Holder's Notes and as if such Holder held a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient of (i) the aggregate principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by the Holder on such date; divided by (ii) the Conversion Price in effect on the related record date, effective date or Expiration Date, as applicable.
(g)Stockholder Rights Plans. If any shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon conversion of this Note and, at the time of such conversion, the Company has in effect any stockholder rights plan, then the Holder will be entitled to receive, in addition to, and concurrently with the delivery of, the consideration otherwise payable under this Note upon such conversion, the rights set forth in such stockholder rights plan, unless such rights have separated from the Common Stock at or prior to such time, in which case, and only in such case, the Conversion Price will be adjusted pursuant to Section 6(c)(1) on account of such separation as if, at the time of such separation, the Company had made a distribution of the type referred to in such Section to all holders of the Common Stock, subject to readjustment in accordance with such Section if such rights expire, terminate or are redeemed.
(h)Voluntary Adjustment by Company. The Company may at any time during the term of this Note, with the prior written consent of the Required Holders, reduce the then current Conversion Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company.
(7)OPTIONAL REDEMPTION AT THE COMPANY'S ELECTION.
(a)General. At any time after January 16, 2021 (the "Company Optional Trigger Date"), so long as (i) the arithmetic average of the Weighted Average Prices of the Common Stock for any thirty (30) consecutive Trading Days occurring after the Company Optional Trigger Date (all such determinations to be appropriately adjusted for any stock split,
- 22 -



stock dividend, stock combination, reclassification or other similar transaction during such period) (a "Company Optional Measuring Period") equaled or exceeded one hundred forty percent (140%) of the Conversion Price on the Issuance Date (as adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, reclassification or similar transaction after the Subscription Date) and (ii) there has been no Equity Conditions Failure during the period beginning on the applicable Company Optional Redemption Notice Date (as defined below) through the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date (as defined below), the Company shall have the right to redeem all or any portion of the Conversion Amount then remaining outstanding under this Note, the Other Notes and the Additional Notes (a "Company Optional Redemption Amount") as designated in the applicable Company Optional Redemption Notice on the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date (each as defined below) (a "Company Optional Redemption"). The portion of this Note, the Other Notes and any Additional Notes subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 7(a) shall be redeemed by the Company on the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date in cash at a price equal to the 100% of the Conversion Amount to be redeemed (a "Company Optional Redemption Price"). The Company may exercise its right to require redemption under this Section 7 by delivering within not more than ten (10) Trading Days following the end of such Company Optional Measuring Period a written notice thereof to the Holder and all, but not less than all, of the holders of the Other Notes and any Additional Notes (a "Company Optional Redemption Notice" and the date all of the holders of the Notes received such notice is referred to as a "Company Optional Redemption Notice Date"). Each Company Optional Redemption Notice shall be irrevocable. Each Company Optional Redemption Notice shall (i) state the date on which the applicable Company Optional Redemption shall occur (a "Company Optional Redemption Date"), which date shall not be less than ten (10) Trading Days nor more than thirty (30) Trading Days following the applicable Company Optional Redemption Notice Date and (ii) state the aggregate Conversion Amount of the Notes which the Company has elected to redeem from the Holder and all of the holders of the Other Notes and any Additional Notes pursuant to this Section 7(a) (and analogous provisions under the Other Notes and any applicable Additional Notes) on the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date an Equity Conditions Failure (other than as a result of the receipt by the Company of an Interest Blocker Notice) occurs between the applicable Company Optional Redemption Notice Date and the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date and (iii) confirm that there has been no Equity Conditions Failure during the period beginning on the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date through the applicable Company Optional Redemption Notice Date. If the Company confirmed that there was no such Equity Conditions Failure as of the applicable Company Optional Redemption Notice Date but an Equity Conditions Failure occurs between the applicable Company Optional Redemption Notice Date and the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date (a "Company Optional Redemption Interim Period"), the Company shall provide the Holder a subsequent notice to that effect. If there is an Equity Conditions Failure (which is not waived in writing by the Holder) during such Company Optional Redemption Interim Period, then the applicable Company Optional Redemption shall be null and void with respect to all or any part designated by the Holder of the unconverted Company Optional Redemption Amount and the Holder shall be entitled to all the rights of a holder of this Note with respect to such amount of the applicable Company Optional Redemption Amount. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7, until the applicable Company Optional Redemption Price is paid, in full, the applicable Company
- 23 -



Optional Redemption Amount may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 3. All Conversion Amounts converted by the Holder after the applicable Company Optional Redemption Notice Date shall reduce the applicable Company Optional Redemption Amount of this Note required to be redeemed on the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date, unless the Holder otherwise indicates in the applicable Conversion Notice. Company Optional Redemptions made pursuant to this Section 7 shall be made in accordance with Section 10. To the extent redemptions required by this Section 7 are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of the Note by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. The parties hereto agree that in the event of the Company's redemption of any portion of the Note under this Section 7, the Holder's damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties' inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. For the avoidance of doubt, any Conversion Amount that is subject to a Conversion Notice delivered to the Company may no longer be subject to a Company Optional Redemption even if the shares issuable upon such conversion have not been delivered on or prior to the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date.
(b)Pro Rata Redemption Requirement. If the Company elects to cause a Company Optional Redemption pursuant to Section 7(a), then it must simultaneously take the same action in the same proportion with respect to the Other Notes and any Additional Notes. If the Company elects to cause a Company Optional Redemption pursuant to Section 7(a) (or similar provisions under the Other Notes and the Additional Notes) with respect to less than all of the Conversion Amounts of the Notes and any Additional Notes then outstanding, then the Company shall require redemption of a Conversion Amount from each of the holders of the Notes and any Additional Notes equal to the product of (i) the aggregate Company Optional Redemption Amount of Notes and the Additional Notes which the Company has elected to cause to be redeemed pursuant to Section 7(a), multiplied by (ii) the fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the aggregate Principal Amount of the Notes and any Additional Notes held by such holder and the denominator of which is the sum of the aggregate Principal Amount of the Notes and any Additional Notes held by all holders holding outstanding Notes and any Additional Notes (such fraction with respect to each holder is referred to as its "Company Optional Redemption Allocation Percentage", and such amount with respect to each holder is referred to as its "Pro Rata Company Optional Redemption Amount"). In the event that the initial holder of any Notes or Additional Notes shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such holder's Notes or any Additional Notes, the transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such holder's Company Optional Redemption Allocation Percentage and Pro Rata Company Optional Redemption Amount.
(8)NONCIRCUMVENTION. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Note, and will at all times in good faith carry out all of the provisions of this Note and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder of this Note.

(9)RESERVATION OF AUTHORIZED SHARES.
(a)Reservation. The Company shall initially reserve out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock a number of shares of Common Stock for each of this Note, the Other Notes and any Additional Notes equal to the sum of (i) 130% of the Conversion Rate with respect to the Conversion Amount of each such Note as of the Issuance Date and (ii) 130% of the maximum number of shares issuable as Interest Shares assuming all Interest through the Maturity Date is paid in Interest Shares at the maximum possible Interest Rate. So long as any of this Note, the Other Notes and the Additional Notes are outstanding, the Company shall take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of this Note, the Other Notes and any Additional Notes, the number of shares of Common Stock specified above in this Section 9(a) as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the conversion of all of the Notes and any Additional Notes then outstanding; provided, that at no time shall the number of shares of Common Stock so reserved be less than the number of shares required to be reserved pursuant hereto (in each case, without regard to any limitations on conversions) (the "Required Reserve Amount"). The initial number of shares of Common Stock reserved for conversions of this Note, the Other Notes and the Additional Notes and each increase in the number of shares so reserved shall be allocated pro rata among the Holder, the holders of the Other Notes and the holders of any Additional Notes based on the Principal amount of this Note and the Other Notes held by each holder at the Initial Closing (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) or increase in the number of reserved shares, as the case may be (the "Authorized Share Allocation"). In the event that a holder shall sell or otherwise transfer this Note, or a portion thereof, or any of such holder's Other Notes or Additional Notes, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such holder's Authorized Share Allocation. Any shares of Common Stock reserved and allocated to the portion of the Note held by any Person who ceases to hold any Notes shall be allocated to the portion of the Note held by the Holder and the remaining holders of Other Notes and the Additional Notes, pro rata based on the then-outstanding Principal amount of this Note, the Other Notes and any Additional Notes then held by such holders.
(b)Insufficient Authorized Shares. If at any time while any of the Notes remain outstanding the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Common Stock to satisfy its obligation to have reserved for issuance upon conversion of the outstanding Notes at least a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Required Reserve Amount (an "Authorized Share Failure"), then the Company shall promptly take all action necessary to increase the Company's authorized shares of Common Stock to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for the Notes then outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall either (x) obtain the written consent of its stockholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock and provide each stockholder with an information statement with respect thereto or (y) file with the SEC a proxy statement for a meeting of its stockholders at which meeting the Company will seek the approval of its
- 25 -



stockholders for an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each stockholder with a proxy statement and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to solicit its stockholders' approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and to cause its Board of Directors to recommend to the stockholders that they approve such proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if during any such time of an Authorized Share Failure, the Company is able to obtain the written consent of a majority of the shares of its issued and outstanding Common Stock to approve the increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, the Company may satisfy this obligation by obtaining such consent and submitting for filing with the SEC an Information Statement on Schedule 14C. If, upon any conversion of this Note, the Company does not have sufficient authorized shares to deliver in satisfaction of such conversion, then unless the Holder elects to rescind such attempted conversion, the Holder may require the Company to pay to the Holder within three (3) Trading Days of the applicable attempted conversion, cash in an amount equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock that the Company is unable to deliver pursuant to this Section 9, and (ii) the highest Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock during the period beginning on the applicable Conversion Date and ending on the date the Company makes the applicable cash payment.
(10)REDEMPTIONS.
(a)Mechanics. The Company shall deliver the applicable Event of Default Redemption Price to the Holder within three (3) Business Days after the Company's receipt of the Holder's Event of Default Redemption Notice (the "Event of Default Redemption Date"). If the Holder has submitted a Change of Control Redemption Notice in accordance with Section 5(b), the Company shall deliver the applicable Change of Control Redemption Price to the Holder (i) concurrently with the consummation of such Change of Control if such notice is received prior to the consummation of such Change of Control and (ii) within three (3) Business Days after the Company's receipt of such notice otherwise (such date, the "Change of Control Redemption Date"). If the Company has delivered a Qualifying Early Redemption Notice to the Holders in accordance with Section 5(c), the Company shall deliver the applicable Qualifying Early Redemption Price to the Holders concurrently with the consummation of such Qualifying Change of Control (such date, the “Qualifying Early Redemption Date”). The Company shall deliver the applicable Company Optional Redemption Price to the Holder on the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date. The Company shall pay the applicable Redemption Price to the Holder on the applicable due date. In the event of a redemption of less than all of the Conversion Amount of this Note and a surrender of this Note by the Holder, the Company shall promptly cause to be issued and delivered to the Holder a new Note (in accordance with Section 18(d)) representing the outstanding Principal which has not been redeemed and any accrued Interest on such Principal which shall be calculated as if no Redemption Notice has been delivered. In the event that the Company does not pay the applicable Redemption Price to the Holder within the time period required, at any time thereafter and until the Company pays such unpaid Redemption Price in full, the Holder shall have the option, in lieu of redemption, to require the Company to promptly return to the Holder all or any portion of this Note representing the Conversion Amount that was submitted for redemption and for which the applicable Redemption Price (together with any Late Charges thereon) has not been paid. Upon the
- 26 -



Company's receipt of such notice, (x) the applicable Redemption Notice shall be null and void with respect to such Conversion Amount, (y) the Company shall immediately return this Note, or issue a new Note (in accordance with Section 18(d)) to the Holder representing such Conversion Amount not redeemed and (z) the Conversion Price of this Note or such new Note shall be adjusted to the Conversion Price as in effect on the date on which the applicable Redemption Notice is voided. The Holder's delivery of a notice voiding a Redemption Notice and exercise of its rights following such notice shall not affect the Company's obligations to make any payments of Late Charges which have accrued prior to the date of such notice with respect to the Conversion Amount subject to such notice.
(b)Redemption by Other Holders. Upon the Company's receipt of notice from any of the holders of the Other Notes or any Additional Notes for redemption or repayment as a result of an event or occurrence substantially similar to the events or occurrences described in Section 4(b) or Section 5(b) or pursuant to equivalent provisions set forth in the Other Notes or any Additional Notes (each, an "Other Redemption Notice"), the Company shall promptly provide notice of such request. If the Company receives a Redemption Notice and one or more Other Redemption Notices, during the seven (7) Business Day period beginning on and including the date which is three (3) Business Days prior to the Company's receipt of the Holder's Redemption Notice and ending on and including the date which is three (3) Business Days after the Company's receipt of the Holder's Redemption Notice and the Company is unable to redeem all principal, interest and other amounts designated in such Redemption Notice and such Other Redemption Notices received during such seven (7) Business Day period, then the Company shall redeem a pro rata amount from the Holder and each holder of the Other Notes and the Additional Notes (including the Holder) based on the outstanding Principal amount of this Note, the Other Notes and any Additional Notes submitted for redemption pursuant to such Redemption Notice and such Other Redemption Notices received by the Company during such seven (7) Business Day period.
(11)VOTING RIGHTS. The Holder shall have no voting rights as the holder of this Note, except as required by law and as expressly provided in this Note.
(12)SECURITY. This Note, the Other Notes and any Additional Notes are secured to the extent and in the manner set forth in the Security Documents.

The affirmative vote of the Required Holders at a meeting duly called for such purpose or the written consent without a meeting of the Required Holders shall be required for any change or amendment or waiver of any provision to this Note, any of the Other Notes or any Additional Notes. Any change, amendment or waiver by the Company and the Required Holders shall be binding on the Holder of this Note and all holders of the Other Notes and the Additional Notes.
(17)TRANSFER. This Note and any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of this Note may be offered, sold, assigned or transferred by the Holder without the consent of the Company, subject only to the provisions of Section 2(g) of the Securities Purchase Agreement.

(a)Transfer. If this Note is to be transferred, the Holder shall surrender this Note to the Company, whereupon the Company will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Note (in accordance with Section 18(d) and subject to Section 3(c)(iii)), registered as the Holder may request, representing the outstanding Principal being transferred by the Holder and, if less than the entire outstanding Principal is being transferred, a new Note (in accordance with Section 18(d)) to the Holder representing the outstanding Principal not being transferred. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of Section 3(c)(iii) following
- 30 -



conversion or redemption of any portion of this Note, the outstanding Principal represented by this Note may be less than the Principal stated on the face of this Note.
(b)Lost, Stolen or Mutilated Note. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Note, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the Company in customary form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Note, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new Note (in accordance with Section 18(d)) representing the outstanding Principal.
(c)Note Exchangeable for Different Denominations. This Note is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Company, for a new Note or Notes (in accordance with Section 18(d)) representing in the aggregate the outstanding Principal of this Note, and each such new Note will represent such portion of such outstanding Principal as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender.

Whenever the Company is required to issue a new Note pursuant to the terms of this Note, such new Note (i) shall be of like tenor with this Note, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such new Note, the Principal remaining outstanding (or in the case of a new Note being issued pursuant to Section 18(a) or Section 18(c), the Principal designated by the Holder which, when added to the principal represented by the other new Notes issued in connection with such issuance, does not exceed the Principal remaining outstanding under this Note immediately prior to such issuance of new Notes), (iii) shall have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such new Note, which is the same as the Issuance Date of this Note, (iv) shall have the same rights and conditions as this Note, and (v) shall represent accrued and unpaid Interest and Late Charges, if any, on the Principal and Interest of this Note, from the Issuance Date.

The remedies provided in this Note shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Note and any of the other Transaction Documents at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the Holder's right to pursue actual and consequential damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Note. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, conversion, redemption and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Company (or the performance thereof). The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate.

(22)FAILURE OR INDULGENCE NOT WAIVER. No failure or delay on the part of the Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.

If the Holder and the Company are unable to agree upon such determination or calculation within three (3) Business Days of such disputed determination or arithmetic calculation being submitted to the Holder, then the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days submit (a) the disputed determination of the Closing Bid Price, the Closing Sale Price or the Weighted Average Price to an independent, reputable investment bank selected by the Holder and approved by the Company, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, or (b) the disputed arithmetic calculation of the Conversion Rate, Conversion Price or any Redemption Price to an independent, outside accountant, selected by the Holder and approved by the Company, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Company, at the Company's expense, shall cause the investment bank or the accountant, as the case may be, to perform the determinations or calculations and notify the Company and the Holder of the results no later than ten (10) Business Days from the time it receives the disputed determinations or calculations. Such investment bank's or accountant's determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be binding upon all parties absent demonstrable error.

(27)GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; JURY TRIAL. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Note shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York. The Company 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 with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim 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.

THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS NOTE OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

If any provision of this Note is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Note so long as this Note as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the Company or the Holder hereof or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the Company or the Holder hereof. The Company and the Holders will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).

If and to the extent the Company does provide any such information, or the Holder otherwise comes into possession of material non-public information relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries as a result of the receipt or delivery of any notice in accordance with the terms hereof, the Company will comply with its obligations under Regulation FD under the Exchange Act. In the absence of any disclosure by the Company pursuant thereto, the Holder shall be allowed to presume that all matters relating thereto do not constitute material non-public information relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries.
(30)USURY. This Note is subject to the express condition that at no time shall the Company be obligated or required to pay interest hereunder at a rate or in an amount which could subject the Holder to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum interest rate or amount which the Company is permitted by applicable law to contract or agree to pay. If by the terms of this Note, the Company is at any time required or obligated to
- 34 -



pay interest hereunder at a rate or in an amount in excess of such maximum rate or amount, the rate or amount of interest under this Note shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate or amount and the interest payable shall be computed at such maximum rate or be in such maximum amount and all prior interest payments in excess of such maximum rate or amount shall be applied and shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of the principal balance of this Note.

This Senior Secured Convertible Note (including all Senior Secured Convertible Notes issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, this "Note") is one of an issue of Senior Secured Convertible Notes issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement on the Additional



Closing Date (collectively, the "Notes" and such other Senior Secured Convertible Notes, the "Other Notes"). Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 31.
(1)PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL; PREPAYMENT. On the Maturity Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash representing all outstanding Principal, any accrued and unpaid Interest and any accrued and unpaid Late Charges (as defined in Section 24(b)) on such Principal and Interest. The "Maturity Date" shall be January 16, 2022, as may be extended at the option of the Holder (i) in the event that, and for so long as, an Event of Default (as defined in Section 4(a)) shall have occurred and be continuing on the Maturity Date (as may be extended pursuant to this Section 1) or any event shall have occurred and be continuing on the Maturity Date (as may be extended pursuant to this Section 1) that with the passage of time and the failure to cure would result in an Event of Default and (ii) through the date that is ten (10) Business Days after the consummation of a Change of Control in the event that a Change of Control is publicly announced or a Change of Control Notice (as defined in Section 5(b)) is delivered prior to the Maturity Date. Other than as specifically permitted by this Note, the Company may not prepay any portion of the outstanding Principal, accrued and unpaid Interest or accrued and unpaid Late Charges on Principal and Interest, if any.

(a)Interest on this Note shall commence accruing on the Issuance Date at the Interest Rate and shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and twelve 30-day months and shall be payable in arrears for each Calendar Quarter on the first (1st) Business Day of each Calendar Quarter after the Issuance Date (each, an "Interest Date").
(b)Interest shall be payable on each Interest Date, to the record holder of this Note on the applicable Interest Date, in whole or in part, in shares of Common Stock ("Interest Shares") so long as there is no Equity Conditions Failure (other than as a result of the delivery of an Interest Blocker Notice (as defined below)) occurring on the applicable Interest Date; provided, however, that the Company may, at its option following written notice to each holder of the Notes and any Additional Notes on or prior to the applicable Interest Notice Due Date (the date such notice is delivered to the Holder and holders of Other Notes and Additional Notes, the "Interest Notice Date"), elect to pay Interest on any Interest Date in cash ("Cash Interest") or in a combination of Cash Interest and Interest Shares. Each Interest Election Notice shall specify the amount or percentage of Interest that the Company will pay in respect of the Interest Date as Cash Interest and Interest Shares which amounts or percentages, as applicable, when added together, must equal the applicable Interest (or 100% thereof, as applicable) due on such Interest Date. If the Company elects (or is deemed to have elected by operation of this Section 2) the payment of applicable Interest in Interest Shares, in whole or in part, and an Equity Conditions Failure (other than the delivery to the Company of an Interest Blocker Notice) occurs at any time prior to the applicable Interest Date that is expected to last through the applicable Interest Date (which is not waived in writing by the Holder), the Company shall provide the Holder a written notice to that effect by no later than the Trading Day immediately following the Company having knowledge of such Equity Conditions Failure, indicating that unless the Holder waives the Equity Conditions Failure in writing, the applicable portion of
2



Interest as to which the Holder did not waive the Equity Conditions shall be paid as Cash Interest. If any portion of Interest for a particular Interest Date shall be paid in Interest Shares, then on the applicable Interest Date, the Company shall issue to the Holder, such number of shares of Common Stock equal to (a) the amount of Interest payable on the applicable Interest Date in Interest Shares divided by (b) the Interest Conversion Price as in effect on the applicable Interest Date. All Interest Shares shall be fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole share in accordance with Section 3(a)). Except as expressly provided in this Section 2, the Company shall pay the applicable Interest in the same ratio of Interest Shares and Cash Interest on the Notes, the Other Notes and any Additional Notes. The Company shall pay any and all taxes that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery to the Holder of shares of Common Stock as Interest pursuant to this Section 2; provided, however, that the Holder shall be solely responsible for any transfer taxes if the Interest Shares are to be registered, issued or delivered in the name of a Person other than the Holder.
(c)Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) the Company elects (or is deemed to have elected by operation of this Section 2) to pay all or any portion of Interest due on any Interest Date in Interest Shares, (ii) the Company is permitted pursuant to this Section 2 to pay all or any portion of Interest due on such Interest Date in Interest Shares if not for the delivery to the Company of an Interest Blocker Notice and (iii) within two (2) Business Days following the applicable Interest Notice Date the Holder has delivered to the Company a written notice (an "Interest Blocker Notice") (A) stating that such payment of Interest in Interest Shares would result in a violation of Section 3(d), (B) specifying the portion of the applicable Interest with respect to which the payment in Interest Shares would result in a violation of Section 3(d) if such payment of Interest in Interest Shares were effected (such amount so specified is referred to herein as the "Designated Interest Amount") and (C) requesting the Company hold the Designated Interest Amount issuable to the Holder in abeyance for the Holder until such time or times as its right thereto would not result in the Holder and its other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the Company shall promptly upon written notice from the Holder deliver such Interest Shares to the extent as if there had been no such limitation. Any Interest Shares held in abeyance pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2(c) shall satisfy the Company's requirement to pay the applicable Interest corresponding to the number of Interest Shares so held in abeyance until the Company receives a notice from the Holder instructing the Company that the Maximum Percentage no longer prevents the Holder from receiving such Interest Shares.
(d)Prior to the payment of Interest on an Interest Date, Interest on this Note shall accrue at the Interest Rate and be payable by way of inclusion of the Interest in the Conversion Amount (as defined in Section 3(b)(i)) on each Conversion Date (as defined in Section 3(c)(i)) in accordance with Section 3(b)(i) and/or on each Redemption Date.
(3)CONVERSION OF NOTES. At any time or times after the first (1st) Trading Day following the Pricing Date (as defined in Section 3(b)(ii)) (the "Initial Convertibility Date"), this Note shall be convertible into shares of Common Stock, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3.

Trading Day following the date of receipt of a Conversion Notice (a "Share Delivery Date"), the Company shall, (x) if the Transfer Agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled to the Holder's or its designee's balance account with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal At Custodian system or (y) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, issue and deliver to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled. If this Note is physically surrendered for conversion as required by Section 3(c)(iii) and the outstanding Principal of this Note is greater than the Principal portion of the Conversion Amount being converted, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than three (3) Business Days after receipt of this Note and at its own expense, issue and deliver to the Holder a new Note (in accordance with Section 18(d)) representing the outstanding Principal not converted. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of this Note shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock on the Conversion Date, irrespective of the date such shares of Common Stock are credited to the Holder's account with DTC or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such shares of Common Stock, as the case may be.
(ii)Company's Failure to Timely Convert. If the Company shall fail on or prior to the applicable Share Delivery Date to issue and deliver a certificate to the Holder (if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program), or credit the Holder's balance account with DTC (if the Transfer Agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program), for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder's conversion of any Conversion Amount (a "Conversion Failure"), then the Holder, upon written notice to the Company, may void its Conversion Notice with respect to, and retain or have returned, as the case may be, any portion of this Note that has not been converted pursuant to such Conversion Notice; provided that the voiding of a Conversion Notice shall not affect the Company's obligations to make any payments which may have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 3(c)(ii) or otherwise. In addition to the foregoing, if the Company shall fail on or prior to the applicable Share Delivery Date to issue and deliver a certificate to the Holder, if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, or credit the Holder's balance account with DTC, if the Transfer Agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder's conversion of any Conversion Amount or on any date of the Company's obligation to deliver shares of Common Stock as contemplated pursuant to clause (y) below, and if after such Trading Day the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company (a "Buy-In"), then the Company shall, within three (3) Trading Days after the Holder's request and in the Holder's discretion, either (x) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (the "Buy-In Price"), at which point the Company's obligation to issue and deliver such certificate or certificates or credit the Holder's balance account with DTC for the shares of
5



Common Stock to which the Holder is otherwise entitled upon the Holder's conversion of the applicable Conversion Amount shall terminate, or (y) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such shares of Common Stock or credit the Holder's balance account with DTC for such shares of Common Stock and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Common Stock, times (B) the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the applicable Conversion Date. Nothing herein shall limit the Holder's right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company's failure to timely deliver shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
(iii)Registration; Book-Entry. The Company shall maintain a register (the "Register") for the recordation of the names and addresses of the holders of each Note and the Principal amount of the Notes (and stated interest thereon) held by such holders (the "Registered Notes"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The Company and the holders of the Notes shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of a Note for all purposes, including, without limitation, the right to receive payments of Principal and Interest, if any, hereunder, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. A Registered Note may be assigned or sold in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register. Upon its receipt of a request to assign or sell all or part of any Registered Note by the Holder, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Company shall record the information contained therein in the Register and issue one or more new Registered Notes in the same aggregate Principal amount as the Principal amount of the surrendered Registered Note to the designated assignee or transferee pursuant to Section 17. The Company shall be entitled to act and rely upon any such request without inquiry as to the genuineness thereof, and without liability of any type or nature arising therefrom. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3(c)(iii), the Holder may assign the Note or any portion thereof to an Affiliate of such Holder or a Related Fund of such Holder without delivering a request to assign or sell such Note to the Company and the recordation of such assignment or sale in the Register (a "Related Party Assignment"); provided, that (x) the Company may continue to deal solely with such assigning or selling Holder unless and until such Holder has delivered a request, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to assign or sell such Note or portion thereof to the Company for recordation in the Register; and (y) such assigning or selling Holder shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Company, maintain a register (the "Related Party Register") comparable to the Register on behalf of the Company, and any such assignment or sale shall be effective upon recordation of such assignment or sale in the Related Party Register. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of any portion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company unless (A) the full Conversion Amount represented by this Note is being converted or (B) the Holder has provided the Company with prior written notice (which notice may be included in a Conversion Notice) requesting reissuance of this Note upon physical surrender of this Note. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the Principal, Interest and Late Charges, if any, converted and the dates of such conversions or shall
6



use such other methods, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon conversion except as provided above.
(iv)Pro Rata Conversion; Disputes. In the event that the Company receives a Conversion Notice relating to this Note and one or more holders of Other Notes or Additional Notes for the same Conversion Date and the Company can convert some, but not all, of such portions of this Note, the Other Notes and the Additional Notes submitted for conversion, the Company, subject to Section 3(d), shall convert from the Holder and each holder of Other Notes and Additional Notes electing to have this Note, the Other Notes or Additional Notes converted on such date a pro rata amount of such holder's portion of the Note, its Other Notes and/or Additional Notes submitted for conversion based on the Principal amount of this Note, the Other Notes and/or Additional Notes submitted for conversion on such date by such holder relative to the aggregate Principal amount of this Note and all Other Notes and Additional Notes submitted for conversion on such date. In the event of a dispute as to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder in connection with a conversion of this Note, the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock not in dispute and such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with Section 23.
(d)Beneficial Ownership Limitation. The Company shall not deliver any shares of Common Stock pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Note, and the Holder shall not have the right to any shares otherwise issuable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Note and any such delivery shall be null and void and treated as if never made, to the extent that, immediately after giving effect to such issuance, the Holder together with its other Attribution Parties collectively would beneficially own in excess of the Maximum Percentage of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its other Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and all of its other Attribution Parties plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of this Note with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, nonconverted portion of this Note beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its other Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preferred stock or warrants, including any Additional Notes and Warrants) beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its other Attribution Parties subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section 3(d). For purposes of this Section 3(d), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. For purposes of determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock the Holder may acquire pursuant to the terms of this Note without exceeding the Maximum Percentage, the Holder, absent other knowledge, may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (i) the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10- K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the SEC, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (iii) any other written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common
7



Stock outstanding (the "Reported Outstanding Share Number"). If the Company receives a Conversion Notice from the Holder at a time when the actual number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the Company shall notify the Holder in writing of the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding and, to the extent that such Conversion Notice would otherwise cause the Holder's beneficial ownership, as determined pursuant to this Section 3(d), to exceed the Maximum Percentage, the Holder shall, within one (1) Business Day thereafter, notify the Company of a reduced number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased pursuant to such Conversion Notice. The number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Note, by the Holder and any other Attribution Party since the date as of which the Reported Outstanding Share Number was reported. In the event that the issuance of shares of Common Stock to the Holder upon conversion of this Note would result in the Holder and its other Attribution Parties being deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, more than the Maximum Percentage of the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the number of shares by which the Holder's and its other Attribution Parties' aggregate beneficial ownership would exceed the Maximum Percentage (the "Excess Shares") shall be deemed null and void and any portion of the Conversion Amount so converted shall be reinstated, and the Holder shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the Excess Shares. Upon delivery of a written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% as specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase in the Maximum Percentage will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and its other Attribution Parties and not to any other holder of Notes that is not an Attribution Party of the Holder. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 3(d) to the extent necessary to correct this paragraph (or any portion of this paragraph) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation contained in this Section 3(d) or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitation contained in this paragraph may not be waived and shall apply to a successor holder of this Note.
(4)RIGHTS UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT.
(a)Event of Default. Each of the following events shall constitute an "Event of Default":

(xi)any representation, warranty, certification or statement of fact made or deemed made by the Company or any Subsidiary herein, or in any other Transaction Document, shall be incorrect or misleading in any material respect when made or deemed made;

(xiii)any material provision of any Security Document (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) shall at any time for any reason (other than pursuant to the express terms thereof) cease to be valid and binding on or enforceable against the Company or any Subsidiary party thereto, or ceases to give the Collateral Agent the Liens purported to be created thereby or the validity or enforceability thereof shall be contested by the Company or any Subsidiary, or a proceeding shall be commenced by the Company or any Subsidiary or any governmental authority having jurisdiction over any of them, seeking to establish the invalidity or unenforceability thereof, or the Company or any Subsidiary shall deny in writing that it has any liability or obligation purported to be created under any Security Document;
(xiv)any material damage to, or loss, theft or destruction of, any Collateral or a material amount of property of the Company, whether or not insured, or any strike, lockout, labor dispute, embargo, condemnation, act of God or public enemy, or other casualty which causes, for more than fifteen (15) consecutive days, the cessation or substantial curtailment of revenue producing activities at any facility of the Company or any Subsidiary, if any such event or circumstance could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement);
10



(xv)a false or inaccurate certification (including a false or inaccurate deemed certification) by the Company that the Equity Conditions are satisfied or that there has been no Equity Conditions Failure or as to whether any Event of Default has occurred (in each case other than any Equity Conditions Failure arising solely as a result of the delivery to the Company of an Interest Blocker Notice);

(xvii)any Event of Default (as defined in the Other Notes) occurs with respect to any Other Notes; or
(xviii)any Event of Default (as defined in the Additional Notes) occurs with respect to any Additional Notes.
(b)Redemption Right. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to this Note or any Other Note, the Company shall promptly deliver written notice thereof (an "Event of Default Notice") to the Holder. At any time after the earlier of the Holder's receipt of an Event of Default Notice and the Holder becoming aware of an Event of Default, the Holder may require the Company to redeem (an "Event of Default Redemption") all, but not less than all, of this Note by delivering written notice thereof (the "Event of Default Redemption Notice" and the date the Holder delivers an Event of Default Redemption Notice to the Company, an "Event of Default Redemption Notice Date") to the Company, which Event of Default Redemption Notice shall indicate that the Holder is electing to require the Company to redeem this Note. To the extent this Note is subject to redemption by the Company pursuant to this Section 4(b), this Note shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price equal to the greater of (i) the product of (x) the Redemption Premium and (y) the Conversion Amount being redeemed and (ii) solely if there is an Equity Conditions Failure (that is not waived in writing by the Holder) during the period from the applicable Event of Default Redemption Notice Date through and including the applicable Event of Default Redemption Date (as defined in Section 10(a)), the product of (x) the Conversion Rate with respect to the Conversion Amount being redeemed and (y) the quotient determined by dividing (I) the greatest Closing Sale Price of the shares of Common Stock during the period beginning on the date immediately preceding such Event of Default and ending on the date the Holder delivers the Event of Default Redemption Notice, by (II) the lowest Conversion Price in effect during such period(the "Event of Default Redemption Price"). Redemptions required by this Section 4(b) shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 10. To the extent redemptions required by this Section 4(b) are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of the Note by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4, but subject to Section 3(d), until the Event of Default Redemption Price (together with any interest thereon) is paid in full, the Conversion Amount submitted for redemption under this Section 4(b) (together with any interest thereon) may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Common Stock pursuant to Section 3. Any
11



such converted Conversion Amount shall reduce the Event of Default Redemption payment by an equivalent amount. The parties hereto agree that in the event of the Company's redemption of this Note under this Section 4(b), the Holder's damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties' inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any Event of Default redemption premium due under this Section 4(b) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holder's actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty.
(5)RIGHTS UPON FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTION AND CHANGE OF CONTROL.
(a)Assumption and Corporate Events. Upon the consummation of any Fundamental Transaction, the Company shall cause any Successor Entity or Successor Entities to jointly and severally succeed to, and be added to the term "Company" under this Note (so that from and after the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, each and every provision of this Note referring to the "Company" shall refer instead to each of the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally), and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally with the Company, may exercise every right and power of the Company prior thereto and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities shall assume all of the obligations of the Company prior thereto under this Note with the same effect as if the Company and such Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, had been named as the Company in this Note. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the occurrence or consummation of any Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of shares of Common Stock become entitled to receive securities, cash, assets or other property with respect to or in exchange for shares of Common Stock (a "Corporate Event"), the Company shall provide that it shall be a required condition to the occurrence or consummation of such Corporate Event that the Holder will have the right to receive upon conversion of this Note at any time after the occurrence or consummation of the Corporate Event, shares of Common Stock or capital stock of a Successor Entity or, if so elected by the Holder, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) purchasable upon the conversion of this Note prior to such Corporate Event, such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights and any shares of Common Stock) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence or consummation of such Corporate Event or the record, eligibility or other determination date for the event resulting in such Corporate Event, had this Note been converted immediately prior to such Corporate Event or the record, eligibility or other determination date for the event resulting in such Corporate Event (without regard to any limitations on conversion of this Note). The provisions of this Section 5(a) shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and Corporate Events.
(b)Redemption Right. As soon as practicable following the public announcement of the consummation of a Change of Control, the Company shall deliver written notice thereof to the Holder (a "Change of Control Notice"). At any time during the period beginning on the earlier to occur of (x) the Holder becoming aware of the consummation of a
12



Change of Control and (y) the Holder's receipt of a Change of Control Notice and ending thirty five (35) Trading Days after the date of the consummation of such Change of Control, the Holder may require the Company to redeem (a "Change of Control Redemption") all or any portion of this Note by delivering written notice thereof ("Change of Control Redemption Notice" and the date the Holder delivers a Change of Control Redemption Notice to the Company, a "Change of Control Redemption Notice Date") to the Company, which Change of Control Redemption Notice shall indicate the Conversion Amount the Holder is electing to require the Company to redeem. The portion of this Note subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 5(b) shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price equal to the sum of (i) the greater of (x) 110% of the Conversion Amount being redeemed and (y) solely if (a) the applicable Change of Control is a Make-Whole Change of Control or (b) there is an Equity Conditions Failure (that is not waived in writing by the Holder) during the period from the applicable Change of Control Redemption Notice Date through and including the applicable Change of Control Redemption Date (as defined in Section 10(a)), the product of (I) the Conversion Amount being redeemed and (II) the quotient determined by dividing (A) the greatest Closing Sale Price of the shares of Common Stock during the period beginning on the date immediately preceding the earlier to occur of (1) the consummation of the Change of Control and (2) the public announcement of such Change of Control and ending on the date the Holder delivers the Change of Control Redemption Notice, by (B) the lowest Conversion Price in effect during such period, and (ii) if the applicable Change of Control is a Make-Whole Change of Control, the Make-Whole Change of Control Premium (the "Change of Control Redemption Price"). Redemptions required by this Section 5 shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 10 and shall have priority to payments to stockholders in connection with a Change of Control. To the extent redemptions required by this Section 5(b) are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of the Note by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5, but subject to Section 3(d), until the Change of Control Redemption Price (together with any interest thereon) is paid in full, the Conversion Amount submitted for redemption under this Section 5(b) (together with any interest thereon) may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Common Stock pursuant to Section 3. Any such converted Conversion Amount shall reduce the Conversion Amount submitted for redemption under this Section 5(b) by an equivalent amount. The parties hereto agree that in the event of the Company's redemption of any portion of the Note under this Section 5(b), the Holder's damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties' inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any Change of Control redemption premium due under this Section 5(b) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holder's actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty.
(c)Qualifying Change of Control Redemption Right. Notwithstanding any Holder’s right to require a Change of Control Redemption, delivery of any Change of Control Redemption Notice or anything else to the contrary in the Notes, contemporaneously with, or within three (3) Business Days subsequent to, the consummation of a Qualifying Change of Control, the Company may redeem this Note in full in cash at a price equal to the sum of (i) the aggregate outstanding Principal amount of this Note as of the Qualifying Early Redemption
13



Date (as defined in Section 10(a)), (ii) Interest accrued on such Principal amount as of the Qualifying Early Redemption Date, (iii) any other amounts owed pursuant to the terms of this Note, including, without limitation, any Late Charges, as of the Qualifying Early Redemption Date and (iv) 20% (the “Qualifying Early Redemption Premium”) of the aggregate outstanding Principal amount of this Note as of the Qualifying Early Redemption Date (for the avoidance of doubt, the Qualifying Early Redemption Premium shall only be applied to the aggregate outstanding Principal amount of this Note as of the Qualifying Early Redemption Date) (the “Qualifying Early Redemption Price”). If the Company elects to redeem this Note in connection with a Qualifying Change of Control, the Company shall (i) be deemed by virtue of public announcement of such Qualifying Change of Control to have delivered an irrevocable notice thereof to the Holder (a “Qualifying Early Redemption Notice”) unless the Company has provided earlier or contemporaneous written notice to the Holder that the Company does not elect to redeem this Note in connection with such Qualifying Change of Control and (ii) simultaneously take the same action with respect to all Other Notes and Additional Notes then outstanding. Redemptions required by this Section 5(c) shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 10 and shall have priority to payments to stockholders in connection with a Qualifying Change of Control. To the extent redemptions required by this Section 5(c) are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of the Note by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5, but subject to Section 3(d), until the Qualifying Early Redemption Price (together with any interest thereon) is paid in full, the Conversion Amount submitted for redemption under this Section 5(c) (together with any interest thereon) may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Common Stock of comScore, Inc. pursuant to Section 3 (for the avoidance of doubt, in the event any portion of this Note remains outstanding more than two (2) Business Days after the consummation of a Qualifying Change of Control, Section 5(a) shall apply and the Holder shall, among other things, be entitled to convert this Note into the capital stock of the Successor Entity in accordance with Section 5(a)). Any such converted Conversion Amount shall reduce the Conversion Amount subject to redemption under this Section 5(c) by an equivalent amount. The parties hereto agree that in the event of the Company’s redemption of any portion of the Note under this Section 5(c), the Holder’s damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any Change of Control redemption premium due under this Section 5(c) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holder’s actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty. Upon the Company’s request and at the Company’s sole cost and expense, the Holder agrees to provide a customary payoff letter, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Holder, confirming the payoff of all obligations under this Note and the release of all liens securing such obligations, which confirmations shall be contingent on the Holder’s receipt of the payment in full of the applicable Qualifying Early Redemption Price, and which payoff and release shall occur automatically upon such payment without further action by the Holder.
(6)ADJUSTMENTS TO THE CONVERSION PRICE.
14



(a)Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock or Stock Dividend. If the Company issues solely shares of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on all or substantially all shares of the Common Stock, or if the Company effects a stock split or a stock combination of the Common Stock (in each case excluding an issuance solely pursuant to a Fundamental Transaction or other Corporate Event, as to which the provisions set forth in Section 5 will apply), then the Conversion Price will be adjusted based on the following formula:
CP1 = CP0 * OS0 
OS1
where:
CP0 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately before the open of business on the effective date of such stock split or stock combination, as applicable;
CP1 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or the open of business on such effective date, as applicable;
OS0 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or effective date, as applicable; and
OS1 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, stock split or stock combination.
For the avoidance of doubt, pursuant to the definition of CP1 above, any adjustment to the Conversion Price made pursuant to this Section 6(a) will become effective immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or the open of business on such effective date, as applicable. If any dividend, distribution, stock split or stock combination of the type described in this Section 6(a) is declared or announced, but not so paid or made, then the Conversion Price, if previously adjusted, will be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors of the Company determines not to pay such dividend or distribution or to effect such stock split or stock combination, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect had such dividend, distribution, stock split or stock combination not been declared or announced.
(b)Rights, Options and Warrants. If the Company distributes, to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock, rights, options or warrants entitling such holders, for a period of not more than sixty (60) calendar days after the record date of such distribution, to
15



subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the Closing Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date such distribution is publicly announced, then the Conversion Price will be decreased based on the following formula:
CP1 = CP0 * OS + Y 
OS + X
where:
CP0 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
CP1 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;
OS = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;
X = the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and
Y = a number of shares of Common Stock obtained by dividing (x) the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants by (y) the average of the Closing Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date such distribution is announced.
For the avoidance of doubt, any adjustment to the Conversion Price made pursuant to this Section 6(b) will be made successively whenever any such rights, options or warrants are issued and, pursuant to the definition of CP1 above, will become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for the applicable distribution. To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants (including as a result of such rights, options or warrants not being exercised), the Conversion Price, if previously adjusted, will be readjusted effective as of such expiration date to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect had the decrease to the Conversion Price for such distribution been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered upon exercise of such rights, option or warrants. To the extent such rights, options or warrants are not so distributed, the Conversion Price will be readjusted effective as of the date the Board of Directors of the Company determines not to distribute such rights, options or warrants, to the Conversion Price that
16



would then be in effect had the Ex- Dividend Date for the distribution of such rights, options or warrants not occurred.
For purposes of this Section 6(b), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle holders of Common Stock to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the Closing Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date of the distribution of such rights, options or warrants is announced, and in determining the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, there will be taken into account any consideration the Company receives for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise thereof, with the value of such consideration, if not cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company.
(c)Spin-Offs and Other Distributed Property.
(i)Distributions Other than Spin-Offs. If the Company distributes shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness or other assets or property of the Company, or rights, options or warrants to acquire Capital Stock of the Company or other securities, to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, excluding:
(u) rights issued in the Rights Offering (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement);
(v) dividends, distributions, rights, options or warrants for which an adjustment to the Conversion Price is required pursuant to Section 6(a) or 6(b);
(w) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash for which an adjustment to the Conversion Price is required pursuant to Section 6(d);
(x) rights issued or otherwise distributed pursuant to a stockholder rights plan, except to the extent provided in Section 6(g);
(y) Spin-Offs for which an adjustment to the Conversion Price is required pursuant to Section 6(c)(ii); and
(z) a distribution solely pursuant to a Corporate Event, as to which the provisions set forth in Section 5 will apply,
then the Conversion Price will be decreased based on the following formula:
CP1 = CP0 * SP - FMV 
SP
17



where:
CR0 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
CR1 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;
SP = the average of the Closing Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before such Ex- Dividend Date; and
FMV = the fair market value (determined in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company), as of such Ex-Dividend Date, of the shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets, property, rights, options or warrants distributed per share of Common Stock pursuant to such distribution;
provided, however, that if FMV is equal to or greater than SP, or if the difference between FMV and SP is less than one dollar ($1.00), then, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment to the Conversion Price, each Holder will receive, at the same time and on the same terms as holders of Common Stock, the amount and kind of shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets, property, rights, options or warrants that such Holder would have received if such Holder had owned, on such record date, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the principal amount of Notes held by such Holder on the record date for such distribution divided by the Conversion Price in effect on such record date.
For the avoidance of doubt, pursuant to the definition of CP1 above, any adjustment to the Conversion Price made pursuant to this Section 6(c)(i) will become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for the applicable distribution. To the extent such distribution is not so paid or made, or such rights, options or warrants are not exercised before their expiration (including as a result of being redeemed or terminated), the Conversion Price, if previously adjusted, will be readjusted effective as of the date the Board of Directors of the Company determines not to make or pay such distribution, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect had the adjustment been made on the basis of only the distribution, if any, actually made or paid or on the basis of the distribution of only such rights, options or warrants, if any, that were actually exercised, if at all. Subject to Section 6(g), if any such rights, options or warrants are exercisable only upon the occurrence of certain triggering events, then the Conversion Price will not be adjusted pursuant to this Section 6(c)(i) until the earliest of these triggering events occurs.
18



(ii)Spin-Offs. If the Company distributes or dividends shares of stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to an Affiliate, a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Company to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, and such stock or equity interest is listed or quoted (or will be listed or quoted upon the consummation of the transaction) on a U.S. national securities exchange (a "Spin-Off"), then the Conversion Price will be increased based on the following formula:
CP1 = CP0 *   MP 
MP + FMV
where:
CP0 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off;
CP1 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;
FMV = the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the stock or equity interests distributed per share of Common Stock in such Spin-Off over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period (the "Spin-Off Valuation Period") beginning on, and including, such Ex-Dividend Date (such average to be determined as if references to Common Stock in the definitions of Closing Sale Price and Trading Day were instead references to the number or units of such stock or equity interests distributed per share of Common Stock in such Spin-Off); and
MP = the average of the Closing Sale Prices per share of Common Stock over the Spin-Off Valuation Period.
The adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 6(c)(ii) will be calculated as of the close of business on the last Trading Day of the Spin-Off Valuation Period but will be given effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for the Spin-Off, with retroactive effect. If this Note is converted and the Conversion Date occurs during the Spin-Off Valuation Period, then, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment to the Conversion Price, the Holder will receive, at the same time and on the same terms as holders of Common Stock, the number of shares of stock or other equity interests that such Holder would have received if such Holder had owned, on such record date, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the principal amount of Notes held by such Holder on the record date for Spin-Off divided by the Conversion Price in effect on such record date.
To the extent any dividend or distribution of the type set forth in this Section 6(c)(ii) is declared but not made or paid, the Conversion Price, if previously adjusted, will be readjusted effective as of the date the Board of Directors of the Company determines not to
19



make or pay such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect had the adjustment been made on the basis of only the dividend or distribution, if any, actually made or paid.
(d)Cash Dividends or Distributions. If any cash dividend or distribution is made to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock, then the Conversion Price will be decreased based on the following formula:
CP1 = CP0 *   SP 
SP - D
where:
CP0 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;
CR1 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;
SP = the Closing Sale Price per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately before such Ex-Dividend Date; and
D = the cash amount distributed per share of Common Stock in such dividend or distribution;
provided, however, that if D is equal to or greater than SP, or if the difference between D and SP is less than one dollar ($1.00), then, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment to the Conversion Price, the Holder will receive, at the same time and on the same terms as holders of Common Stock, the amount of cash that such Holder would have received if such Holder had owned, on such record date, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the principal amount of Notes held by such Holder on the record date for such dividend or distribution divided by the Conversion Price in effect on such record date. For the avoidance of doubt, pursuant to the definition of CP1 above, any adjustment to the Conversion Price made pursuant to this Section 6(d) will become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for the applicable dividend or distribution.
To the extent any such dividend or distribution is declared but not made or paid, the Conversion Price, if previously adjusted, will be readjusted effective as of the date the Board of Directors of the Company determines not to make or pay such dividend or
20



distribution, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect had the adjustment been made on the basis of only the dividend or distribution, if any, actually made or paid.
(e)Tender Offers or Exchange Offers. If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries makes a payment in respect of a tender offer or exchange offer for shares of Common Stock, and the value (as determined as of the Expiration Time (as defined below) in the judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company) of the cash and other consideration paid per share of Common Stock in such tender or exchange offer exceeds the Closing Sale Price per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately after the last date (the "Expiration Date") on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (as it may be amended), then the Conversion Price will be decreased based on the following formula:
CP1 = CP0 *   OS0 x SP 
AC + (SP x OS1)
where:
CP0 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the time (the "Expiration Time") such tender or exchange offer expires;
CP1 = the Conversion Price in effect immediately after the Expiration Time;
AC = the aggregate value (as determined as of the Expiration Time in the judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company) of all cash and other consideration paid for shares of Common Stock purchased in such tender or exchange offer;
OS0 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before the Expiration Time (before giving effect to the purchase of all shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer);
OS1 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the Expiration Time (excluding all shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); and
SP = the average of the Closing Sale Prices of Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period (the "Tender/Exchange Offer Valuation Period") beginning on, and including, the Trading Day immediately after the Expiration Date.
21



The adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 6(e) will be calculated as of the close of business on the last Trading Day of the Tender/Exchange Offer Valuation Period but will be given effect immediately after the Expiration Time, with retroactive effect. If this Note is converted and the Conversion Date occurs during the Tender/Exchange Offer Valuation Period, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Notes, the Company will, if necessary, delay the settlement of such conversion until the second (2nd) Business Day after the last day of the Tender/Exchange Offer Valuation Period. To the extent such tender or exchange offer is announced but not consummated (including as a result of the Company being precluded from consummating such tender or exchange offer under applicable law), or any purchases or exchanges of shares of Common Stock in such tender or exchange offer are rescinded, the Conversion Price, if previously adjusted, will be readjusted effective as of the date the Board of Directors of the Company determines not to consummate such offer, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect had the adjustment been made on the basis of only the purchases or exchanges of shares of Common Stock, if any, actually made, and not rescinded, in such tender or exchange offer.
(f)No Adjustments in Certain Cases. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6, the Company will not be obligated to adjust the Conversion Price on account of a transaction or other event otherwise requiring an adjustment pursuant to this Section 6 (other than a stock dividend, distribution, split or combination of the type set forth in Section 6(a) or a tender or exchange offer of the type set forth in Section 6(e)) if each Holder participates, at the same time and on the same terms as holders of Common Stock, and solely by virtue of being a Holder of Notes, in such transaction or event without having to convert such Holder's Notes and as if such Holder held a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient of (i) the aggregate principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by the Holder on such date; divided by (ii) the Conversion Price in effect on the related record date, effective date or Expiration Date, as applicable.
(g)Stockholder Rights Plans. If any shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon conversion of this Note and, at the time of such conversion, the Company has in effect any stockholder rights plan, then the Holder will be entitled to receive, in addition to, and concurrently with the delivery of, the consideration otherwise payable under this Note upon such conversion, the rights set forth in such stockholder rights plan, unless such rights have separated from the Common Stock at or prior to such time, in which case, and only in such case, the Conversion Price will be adjusted pursuant to Section 6(c)(1) on account of such separation as if, at the time of such separation, the Company had made a distribution of the type referred to in such Section to all holders of the Common Stock, subject to readjustment in accordance with such Section if such rights expire, terminate or are redeemed.
(h)Voluntary Adjustment by Company. The Company may at any time during the term of this Note, with the prior written consent of the Required Holders, reduce the then current Conversion Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company.
(7)OPTIONAL REDEMPTION AT THE COMPANY'S ELECTION.
22



(a)General. At any time after January 16, 2021 (the "Company Optional Trigger Date"), so long as (i) the arithmetic average of the Weighted Average Prices of the Common Stock for any thirty (30) consecutive Trading Days occurring after the Company Optional Trigger Date (all such determinations to be appropriately adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, stock combination, reclassification or other similar transaction during such period) (a "Company Optional Measuring Period") equaled or exceeded one hundred forty percent (140%) of the Conversion Price on the Issuance Date (as adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, reclassification or similar transaction after the Subscription Date) and (ii) there has been no Equity Conditions Failure during the period beginning on the applicable Company Optional Redemption Notice Date (as defined below) through the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date (as defined below), the Company shall have the right to redeem all or any portion of the Conversion Amount then remaining outstanding under this Note, the Other Notes and the Additional Notes (a "Company Optional Redemption Amount") as designated in the applicable Company Optional Redemption Notice on the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date (each as defined below) (a "Company Optional Redemption"). The portion of this Note, the Other Notes and any Additional Notes subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 7(a) shall be redeemed by the Company on the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date in cash at a price equal to the 100% of the Conversion Amount to be redeemed (a "Company Optional Redemption Price"). The Company may exercise its right to require redemption under this Section 7 by delivering within not more than ten (10) Trading Days following the end of such Company Optional Measuring Period a written notice thereof to the Holder and all, but not less than all, of the holders of the Other Notes and any Additional Notes (a "Company Optional Redemption Notice" and the date all of the holders of the Notes received such notice is referred to as a "Company Optional Redemption Notice Date"). Each Company Optional Redemption Notice shall be irrevocable. Each Company Optional Redemption Notice shall (i) state the date on which the applicable Company Optional Redemption shall occur (a "Company Optional Redemption Date"), which date shall not be less than ten (10) Trading Days nor more than thirty (30) Trading Days following the applicable Company Optional Redemption Notice Date and (ii) state the aggregate Conversion Amount of the Notes which the Company has elected to redeem from the Holder and all of the holders of the Other Notes and any Additional Notes pursuant to this Section 7(a) (and analogous provisions under the Other Notes and any applicable Additional Notes) on the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date an Equity Conditions Failure (other than as a result of the receipt by the Company of an Interest Blocker Notice) occurs between the applicable Company Optional Redemption Notice Date and the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date and (iii) confirm that there has been no Equity Conditions Failure during the period beginning on the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date through the applicable Company Optional Redemption Notice Date. If the Company confirmed that there was no such Equity Conditions Failure as of the applicable Company Optional Redemption Notice Date but an Equity Conditions Failure occurs between the applicable Company Optional Redemption Notice Date and the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date (a "Company Optional Redemption Interim Period"), the Company shall provide the Holder a subsequent notice to that effect. If there is an Equity Conditions Failure (which is not waived in writing by the Holder) during such Company Optional Redemption Interim Period, then the applicable Company Optional Redemption shall be null and void with respect to all or any part designated by the Holder of the
23



unconverted Company Optional Redemption Amount and the Holder shall be entitled to all the rights of a holder of this Note with respect to such amount of the applicable Company Optional Redemption Amount. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7, until the applicable Company Optional Redemption Price is paid, in full, the applicable Company Optional Redemption Amount may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 3. All Conversion Amounts converted by the Holder after the applicable Company Optional Redemption Notice Date shall reduce the applicable Company Optional Redemption Amount of this Note required to be redeemed on the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date, unless the Holder otherwise indicates in the applicable Conversion Notice. Company Optional Redemptions made pursuant to this Section 7 shall be made in accordance with Section 10. To the extent redemptions required by this Section 7 are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of the Note by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. The parties hereto agree that in the event of the Company's redemption of any portion of the Note under this Section 7, the Holder's damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties' inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. For the avoidance of doubt, any Conversion Amount that is subject to a Conversion Notice delivered to the Company may no longer be subject to a Company Optional Redemption even if the shares issuable upon such conversion have not been delivered on or prior to the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date.
(b)Pro Rata Redemption Requirement. If the Company elects to cause a Company Optional Redemption pursuant to Section 7(a), then it must simultaneously take the same action in the same proportion with respect to the Other Notes and any Additional Notes. If the Company elects to cause a Company Optional Redemption pursuant to Section 7(a) (or similar provisions under the Other Notes and the Additional Notes) with respect to less than all of the Conversion Amounts of the Notes and any Additional Notes then outstanding, then the Company shall require redemption of a Conversion Amount from each of the holders of the Notes and any Additional Notes equal to the product of (i) the aggregate Company Optional Redemption Amount of Notes and the Additional Notes which the Company has elected to cause to be redeemed pursuant to Section 7(a), multiplied by (ii) the fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the aggregate Principal Amount of the Notes and any Additional Notes held by such holder and the denominator of which is the sum of the aggregate Principal Amount of the Notes and any Additional Notes held by all holders holding outstanding Notes and any Additional Notes (such fraction with respect to each holder is referred to as its "Company Optional Redemption Allocation Percentage", and such amount with respect to each holder is referred to as its "Pro Rata Company Optional Redemption Amount"). In the event that the initial holder of any Notes or Additional Notes shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such holder's Notes or any Additional Notes, the transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such holder's Company Optional Redemption Allocation Percentage and Pro Rata Company Optional Redemption Amount.
(8)NONCIRCUMVENTION. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution,
24



issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Note, and will at all times in good faith carry out all of the provisions of this Note and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder of this Note.
(9)RESERVATION OF AUTHORIZED SHARES.
(a)Reservation. The Company shall initially reserve out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock a number of shares of Common Stock for each of this Note, the Other Notes and any Additional Notes equal to the sum of (i) 130% of the Conversion Rate with respect to the Conversion Amount of each such Note as of the Issuance Date and (ii) 130% of the maximum number of shares issuable as Interest Shares assuming all Interest through the Maturity Date is paid in Interest Shares at the maximum possible Interest Rate. So long as any of this Note, the Other Notes and the Additional Notes are outstanding, the Company shall take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of this Note, the Other Notes and any Additional Notes, the number of shares of Common Stock specified above in this Section 9(a) as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the conversion of all of the Notes and any Additional Notes then outstanding; provided, that at no time shall the number of shares of Common Stock so reserved be less than the number of shares required to be reserved pursuant hereto (in each case, without regard to any limitations on conversions) (the "Required Reserve Amount"). The initial number of shares of Common Stock reserved for conversions of this Note, the Other Notes and the Additional Notes and each increase in the number of shares so reserved shall be allocated pro rata among the Holder, the holders of the Other Notes and the holders of any Additional Notes based on the Principal amount of this Note and the Other Notes held by each holder at the Initial Closing (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) or increase in the number of reserved shares, as the case may be (the "Authorized Share Allocation"). In the event that a holder shall sell or otherwise transfer this Note, or a portion thereof, or any of such holder's Other Notes or Additional Notes, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such holder's Authorized Share Allocation. Any shares of Common Stock reserved and allocated to the portion of the Note held by any Person who ceases to hold any Notes shall be allocated to the portion of the Note held by the Holder and the remaining holders of Other Notes and the Additional Notes, pro rata based on the then- outstanding Principal amount of this Note, the Other Notes and any Additional Notes then held by such holders.
(b)Insufficient Authorized Shares. If at any time while any of the Notes remain outstanding the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Common Stock to satisfy its obligation to have reserved for issuance upon conversion of the outstanding Notes at least a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Required Reserve Amount (an "Authorized Share Failure"), then the Company shall promptly take all action necessary to increase the Company's authorized shares of Common Stock to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for the Notes then outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later
25



than sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall either (x) obtain the written consent of its stockholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock and provide each stockholder with an information statement with respect thereto or (y) file with the SEC a proxy statement for a meeting of its stockholders at which meeting the Company will seek the approval of its stockholders for an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each stockholder with a proxy statement and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to solicit its stockholders' approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and to cause its Board of Directors to recommend to the stockholders that they approve such proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if during any such time of an Authorized Share Failure, the Company is able to obtain the written consent of a majority of the shares of its issued and outstanding Common Stock to approve the increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, the Company may satisfy this obligation by obtaining such consent and submitting for filing with the SEC an Information Statement on Schedule 14C. If, upon any conversion of this Note, the Company does not have sufficient authorized shares to deliver in satisfaction of such conversion, then unless the Holder elects to rescind such attempted conversion, the Holder may require the Company to pay to the Holder within three (3) Trading Days of the applicable attempted conversion, cash in an amount equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock that the Company is unable to deliver pursuant to this Section 9, and (ii) the highest Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock during the period beginning on the applicable Conversion Date and ending on the date the Company makes the applicable cash payment.
(10)REDEMPTIONS.
(a)Mechanics. The Company shall deliver the applicable Event of Default Redemption Price to the Holder within three (3) Business Days after the Company's receipt of the Holder's Event of Default Redemption Notice (the "Event of Default Redemption Date"). If the Holder has submitted a Change of Control Redemption Notice in accordance with Section 5(b), the Company shall deliver the applicable Change of Control Redemption Price to the Holder (i) concurrently with the consummation of such Change of Control if such notice is received prior to the consummation of such Change of Control and (ii) within three (3) Business Days after the Company's receipt of such notice otherwise (such date, the "Change of Control Redemption Date"). If the Company has delivered a Qualifying Early Redemption Notice to the Holders in accordance with Section 5(c), the Company shall deliver the applicable Qualifying Early Redemption Price to the Holders concurrently with the consummation of such Qualifying Change of Control (such date, the “Qualifying Early Redemption Date”). The Company shall deliver the applicable Company Optional Redemption Price to the Holder on the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date. The Company shall pay the applicable Redemption Price to the Holder on the applicable due date. In the event of a redemption of less than all of the Conversion Amount of this Note and a surrender of this Note by the Holder, the Company shall promptly cause to be issued and delivered to the Holder a new Note (in accordance with Section 18(d)) representing the outstanding Principal which has not been redeemed and any accrued Interest on such Principal which shall be calculated as if no Redemption Notice has been delivered. In the event that the Company does not pay the applicable Redemption Price to the
26



Holder within the time period required, at any time thereafter and until the Company pays such unpaid Redemption Price in full, the Holder shall have the option, in lieu of redemption, to require the Company to promptly return to the Holder all or any portion of this Note representing the Conversion Amount that was submitted for redemption and for which the applicable Redemption Price (together with any Late Charges thereon) has not been paid. Upon the Company's receipt of such notice, (x) the applicable Redemption Notice shall be null and void with respect to such Conversion Amount, (y) the Company shall immediately return this Note, or issue a new Note (in accordance with Section 18(d)) to the Holder representing such Conversion Amount not redeemed and (z) the Conversion Price of this Note or such new Note shall be adjusted to the Conversion Price as in effect on the date on which the applicable Redemption Notice is voided. The Holder's delivery of a notice voiding a Redemption Notice and exercise of its rights following such notice shall not affect the Company's obligations to make any payments of Late Charges which have accrued prior to the date of such notice with respect to the Conversion Amount subject to such notice.
(b)Redemption by Other Holders. Upon the Company's receipt of notice from any of the holders of the Other Notes or any Additional Notes for redemption or repayment as a result of an event or occurrence substantially similar to the events or occurrences described in Section 4(b) or Section 5(b) or pursuant to equivalent provisions set forth in the Other Notes or any Additional Notes (each, an "Other Redemption Notice"), the Company shall promptly provide notice of such request. If the Company receives a Redemption Notice and one or more Other Redemption Notices, during the seven (7) Business Day period beginning on and including the date which is three (3) Business Days prior to the Company's receipt of the Holder's Redemption Notice and ending on and including the date which is three (3) Business Days after the Company's receipt of the Holder's Redemption Notice and the Company is unable to redeem all principal, interest and other amounts designated in such Redemption Notice and such Other Redemption Notices received during such seven (7) Business Day period, then the Company shall redeem a pro rata amount from the Holder and each holder of the Other Notes and the Additional Notes (including the Holder) based on the outstanding Principal amount of this Note, the Other Notes and any Additional Notes submitted for redemption pursuant to such Redemption Notice and such Other Redemption Notices received by the Company during such seven (7) Business Day period.
(11)VOTING RIGHTS. The Holder shall have no voting rights as the holder of this Note, except as required by law and as expressly provided in this Note.
(12)SECURITY. This Note, the Other Notes and any Additional Notes are secured to the extent and in the manner set forth in the Security Documents.
(13)RANK. All payments due under this Note (a) shall rank pari passu with all Other Notes, Additional Notes, Rights Offering Notes, if any, Backstop Commitment Notes, if any, and Indebtedness described in clause (iii) of the definition of Permitted Indebtedness, if any, and (b) shall be senior to all other Indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries.
(14)NEGATIVE COVENANTS.
27



(a)Until all of the Notes and the Additional Notes have been converted, redeemed or otherwise satisfied in accordance with their terms, the Company shall not, and the Company shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries without the prior written consent of the Required Holders to, directly or indirectly:
(i)incur or guarantee, assume or suffer to exist any Indebtedness, other than Permitted Indebtedness; or
(ii)allow or suffer to exist any mortgage, lien, pledge, charge, security interest or other encumbrance upon or in any property or assets (including accounts and contract rights) owned by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (collectively, "Liens") other than Permitted Liens.
(b)Solely in the event that the Company does not at the applicable time of determination satisfy the Qualifying Conditions, the Company shall not, and the Company shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries without the prior written consent of the Required Holders to, directly or indirectly:
(i)Redeem or repurchase any Equity Interests or other Junior Claims, or declare or pay any dividend or other distributions of assets (or rights to acquire assets) to any or all holders of Equity Interests or other Junior Claims, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property, Options, evidence of Indebtedness or any other assets by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (any of the foregoing, a "Restricted Payment"), in each case other than:
(1)any purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement of Indebtedness made by exchange for, or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale of, Refinancing Indebtedness;
(2)each Subsidiary may declare and make Restricted Payments to Persons that own Equity Interests in such Subsidiary, ratably according to their respective holdings of the type of Equity Interest in respect of which such Restricted Payment is being made;
(3)the Company and each Subsidiary may declare and make dividend payments or other distributions payable solely in Equity Interests of such Person;
(4)any purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement of Equity Interest of the Company or a Subsidiary made by exchange for or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale of Equity Interests of the Company;
(5)a Restricted Payment to pay for the repurchase, retirement or other acquisition or retirement for value of Equity Interests of the Company held by or on behalf of any future, present or former employee, director, manager or consultant of the

Exhibit 10.1
SEPARATION AND RELEASE AGREEMENT
This SEPARATION AND RELEASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into by and between comScore, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Carol DiBattiste (“Executive”). The Company and Executive are each referred to herein individually as a “Party and collectively as the “Parties.”
WHEREAS, Executive and the Company are parties to that certain Change of Control and Severance Agreement effective as of February 21, 2019 (the “Severance Agreement”);
WHEREAS, Executive’s employment with the Company will end on May 31, 2020 (the “Separation Date”);
WHEREAS, subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Parties wish for Executive to be eligible to receive certain severance payments and other benefits, which payments and benefits are conditioned upon Executive’s satisfaction of the terms of this Agreement; and
WHEREAS, the Parties wish to resolve any and all claims that Executive has or may have against the Company or any of the other Released Parties (as defined below), including any claims that Executive may have arising out of Executive’s employment or the end of such employment (except that nothing within this Agreement shall prohibit Executive from seeking enforcement of the terms of this Agreement).
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the Parties, the Parties agree as follows:
1.Separation from Employment; Deemed Resignations. The Parties acknowledge and agree that Executive’s employment with the Company will end on the Separation Date and, as of the Separation Date, Executive will not have any further employment relationship with the Company or any other Released Party. The Parties further acknowledge and agree that, as of the Separation Date or such later date required by applicable law or governing documents, Executive will be deemed to have resigned (to the extent Executive held any such position): (a) as an officer of the Company and each of its affiliates, and (b) as applicable, from the board of managers, board of directors or similar governing body of each of the Company, any of its affiliates and any other corporation, limited liability company, or any other entity in which the Company or any of its affiliates holds an equity interest or with respect to which board or similar governing body Executive serves as the designee or other representative of the Company or any of its affiliates. Executive agrees to (i) reasonably cooperate with the Company to effectuate the resignations described in the preceding sentence and (ii) complete any other actions the Company or its affiliates may reasonably require to effect such resignation.
2.Separation Payment and Benefits.
(a)Provided that Executive: (i) executes this Agreement and returns a signed copy of this Agreement to the Company, care of Sara Dunn at 11950 Democracy Drive, Suite 600,



Reston, Virginia 20190 (e-mail: sdunn@comscore.com) so that it is received by the Company no later than the close of business on May 13, 2020, (ii) honors each of Executive’s commitments set forth herein, and (iii) timely signs and returns the Confirming Release (as defined below), as described in Section 7 below (and does not exercise her revocation right, as described in the Confirming Release), then:
(i)The Company shall provide Executive with severance payments totaling $693,000, (the “Severance Payments”), which Severance Payments, less applicable tax withholdings, shall be paid in the following installments: (A) $231,000 on November 30, 2020; (B) $173,250 on December 31, 2020; (C) $173,250 on April 1, 2021; and (D) $115,500 on May 31, 2021.
(ii)The Company shall pay Executive a lump sum cash amount equal to (A) the full-year short-term incentive award that Executive would have earned had Executive remained employed by the Company through the end of the 2020 calendar year based on the degree of satisfaction of the applicable performance objectives, as determined in good faith by the Committee (as defined in the Severance Agreement) (except that any individual subjective performance objectives will be deemed achieved at the target level), multiplied by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is 152 and the denominator of which is 366 (the “2020 Bonus”), which 2020 Bonus, if any, shall be paid, less applicable tax withholdings, at the time the Company pays short-term incentive awards to senior executives of the Company for the 2020 calendar year, but in no event later than March 15, 2021.
(iii)During the portion, if any, of the 12-month period following the Separation Date (the “Reimbursement Period”) that Executive elects to continue coverage for Executive and Executive’s eligible dependents, if any, under the Company’s group health plans pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”), the Company will reimburse Executive for the amount Executive pays to effect and continue such coverage (the “COBRA Reimbursements”), which COBRA Reimbursements will be made by the Company to Executive consistent with the Company’s normal expense reimbursement policy. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the election of continuation coverage pursuant to COBRA and providing any premiums due to the Company with respect to such continuation coverage will remain Executive’s sole responsibility. Notwithstanding the foregoing, should the Company determine in its sole discretion that it cannot provide the COBRA Reimbursements without potentially violating applicable law (including Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), the Company will, in lieu of the COBRA Reimbursements, provide to Executive a taxable monthly payment for the Reimbursement Period in an amount equal to the monthly COBRA premium Executive would be required to pay to continue her group health coverage in effect on the Separation Date, which amount will be based on the premium for the first month of COBRA coverage and which payments will be made regardless of whether Executive elects COBRA continuation coverage.
2


(iv)Executive’s restricted stock units that are not subject to the attainment of performance goals and which are outstanding and unvested as of the Separation Date (the “Unvested RSUs,” which the Parties agree consist solely of 8,251 restricted stock units originally granted on September 7, 2018 and 11,379 restricted stock units originally granted on June 5, 2018) shall remain outstanding following the Separation Date and shall become fully vested only upon (and effective as of the date of) the occurrence of a Qualifying Change of Control (as defined below); provided, however, that no such vesting shall occur if a Qualifying Change of Control does not occur on or before August 31, 2020 (the “Outside Date”) and, if a Qualifying Change of Control does not occur on or before the Outside Date, then all of the Unvested RSUs shall be forfeited for no consideration on such date. Any Unvested RSUs that become vested pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be settled on the date of the occurrence of the Qualifying Change of Control and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the applicable award agreement, the comScore, Inc. 2018 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Equity Plan”), and any agreement pursuant to which the Qualifying Change of Control is consummated. For the avoidance of doubt, the Unvested RSUs shall not become vested based upon the passage of time or the occurrence of any event (including, without limitation, Executive’s death or disability) other than the occurrence of a Qualifying Change of Control on or before the Outside Date. As used herein, the term “Qualifying Change of Control” means a Change of Control as defined in section 6(b) of the Severance Agreement; provided, however, that the occurrence of an event described in section 6(b)(ii) of the Severance Agreement shall not be considered a Qualifying Change of Control as such term is used herein.
(v)On the Separation Date, 3,222 of the performance-based restricted stock units originally granted to Executive by the Company on September 7, 2018 shall be forfeited for no consideration, and 13,280 of such performance-based restricted stock units shall remain outstanding following the Separation Date (such performance-based restricted stock units that remain outstanding being the “Retained PRSUs”). The Retained PRSUs shall become earned, vested and payable only upon (and effective as of the date of) the occurrence of a Qualifying Change of Control; provided, however, that no such vesting shall occur if a Qualifying Change of Control does not occur on or before the Outside Date and, if a Qualifying Change of Control does not occur on or before the Outside Date, then all of the Retained PRSUs shall be forfeited for no consideration on such date. The percentage of the Retained PRSUs that become earned, vested and payable upon the occurrence of a Qualifying Change of Control on or before the Outside Date shall equal the greater of (A) 100%, (B) the actual percentage achievement of the performance goals set forth in the Statement of Performance Goals attached to the applicable award agreement, determined as of the date of the Qualifying Change of Control, and (C) the percentage level of achievement provided for in any agreement pursuant to which the Qualifying Change of Control is consummated that applies to senior executives of the Company who hold awards similar to the Retained PRSUs. Any Retained PRSUs that become earned and vested pursuant to the preceding provisions of this subparagraph shall be settled on the date of the occurrence of the Qualifying Change of Control and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the applicable award agreement, the Equity
3


Plan, and any agreement pursuant to which the Qualifying Change of Control is consummated. For the avoidance of doubt, the Retained PRSUs shall not become earned or vested based upon the passage of time or the occurrence of any event (including, without limitation, Executive’s death or disability) other than the occurrence of a Qualifying Change of Control on or before the Outside Date. 
(b)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Executive acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement and any payments and benefits described herein are subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s clawback policy as may be in effect from time to time, including to implement Section 10D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and any applicable rules or regulations promulgated thereunder (including applicable rules and regulations of any national securities exchange on which the common stock of the Company may be traded) (the “Compensation Recovery Policy”), and that applicable sections of this Agreement and any related documents shall be deemed superseded by and subject to the terms and conditions of the Compensation Recovery Policy from and after the effective date thereof.
3.Satisfaction of All Leaves and Payment Amounts. In entering into this Agreement, Executive expressly acknowledges and agrees that, with the exception of any base salary earned by Executive in the pay period in which she signs this Agreement (if such base salary has not been paid as of the time that Executive executes this Agreement) and any: (i) base salary to which Executive may be entitled as a result of services performed between the date she signs this Agreement and the Separation Date, and (ii) those sums to which Executive may be entitled following the date that Executive signs this Agreement pursuant to Section 2, Executive has been paid in full all bonuses, been provided all benefits, and otherwise received all wages, compensation, and other sums that Executive has been owed by the Company and each other Released Party. Executive further acknowledges and agrees that Executive has received or has waived all leaves (paid and unpaid) that Executive has been entitled to receive from each Released Party.
4.Release of Liability for Claims.
(a)For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Executive hereby forever releases, discharges and acquits the Company, its present and former subsidiaries and other affiliates, and each of the foregoing entities’ respective past, present and future subsidiaries, affiliates, stockholders, members, partners, directors, officers, managers, employees, agents, attorneys, heirs, predecessors, successors and representatives in their personal and representative capacities, as well as all employee benefit plans maintained by the Company or any of its affiliates and all fiduciaries and administrators of any such plans, in their personal and representative capacities (collectively, the “Released Parties”), from liability for, and Executive hereby waives, any and all claims, damages, or causes of action of any kind related to Executive’s employment with any Released Party, the termination of such employment, ownership of equity in the Company and any other acts or omissions related to any matter on or prior to the time that Executive executes this Agreement, whether arising under federal or state laws or the laws of any other jurisdiction, including (i) any alleged violation through such date of: (A) any federal, state or local anti-discrimination or anti-
4


retaliation law, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, Sections 1981 through 1988 of Title 42 of the United States Code, and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990; (B) the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”); (C) the Immigration Reform Control Act; (D) the National Labor Relations Act; (E) the Occupational Safety and Health Act; (F) the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993; (G) any federal, state or local wage and hour law; (H) the Securities Act of 1933; (I) the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; (J) the Investment Advisers Act of 1940; (K) the Investment Company Act of 1940; (L) the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995; (M) the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002; (N) the Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010; (O) the Virginians with Disabilities Act, the Virginia Human Rights Act, the Virginia Equal Pay Act, the Virginia Genetic Testing Law, the Virginia Occupational Safety and Health Act, the Virginia Minimum Wage Act, the Virginia Payment of Wage Law, the Virginia Right to Work Law; (P) any applicable state employment and securities laws; (Q) any other local, state or federal law, regulation, ordinance or orders which may have afforded any legal or equitable causes of action of any nature; or (R) any public policy, contract, tort, or common law claim or claim for defamation, emotional distress, fraud or misrepresentation of any kind; (ii) any allegation for costs, fees, or other expenses including attorneys’ fees incurred in, or with respect to, a Released Claim; (iii) any and all rights, benefits, or claims Executive may have under any employment contract (including the Severance Agreement), incentive or compensation plan or agreement (including the Equity Plan and the award agreements thereunder) or under any other benefit plan, program or practice; and (iv) any claim for compensation, damages or benefits of any kind not expressly set forth in this Agreement (collectively, the “Released Claims”). This Agreement is not intended to indicate that any such claims exist or that, if they do exist, they are meritorious. Rather, Executive is simply agreeing that, in exchange for any consideration received by Executive hereunder, any and all potential claims of this nature that Executive may have against any of the Released Parties, regardless of whether they actually exist, are expressly settled, compromised and waived. THIS RELEASE INCLUDES MATTERS ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE SOLE OR PARTIAL NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER GROSS OR SIMPLE) OR OTHER FAULT, INCLUDING STRICT LIABILITY, OF ANY OF THE RELEASED PARTIES.
(b)In no event shall the Released Claims include (i) any claim that arises after Executive signs this Agreement (including any claim to the payments or benefits referenced in Section 2), (ii) any claim to vested benefits under an employee benefit plan that is subject to ERISA, (iii) any claim to indemnification under that certain Indemnification Agreement by and between the Company and Executive dated September 29, 2017 (the “Indemnification Agreement”) that arises after Executive signs this Agreement or (iv) any claim to settlement of the previously vested equity awards set forth on Exhibit A. Further notwithstanding this release of liability, nothing in this Agreement prevents Executive from filing any non-legally waivable claim (including a challenge to the validity of this Agreement) with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or other governmental agency (collectively, “Governmental Agencies”) or participating in any investigation or proceeding conducted by the EEOC, SEC or other Governmental Agency or cooperating with such an agency or providing documents or other information to a Governmental Agency; however, Executive understands and agrees that, to the extent permitted
5


by law, Executive is waiving any and all rights to recover from the Released Parties any monetary or personal relief from a Released Party as a result of a Governmental Agency proceeding or subsequent legal actions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement limits Executive’s right to receive an award for information provided to a Governmental Agency.
5.Representation About Claims. Executive represents and warrants that as of the date on which Executive signs this Agreement, Executive has not filed any claims, complaints, charges, or lawsuits against any of the Released Parties with any Governmental Agency or with any state or federal court or arbitrator for or with respect to a matter, claim, or incident that occurred or arose out of one or more occurrences that took place on or prior to the time at which Executive signs this Agreement. Executive further represents and warrants that Executive has made no assignment, sale, delivery, transfer or conveyance of any rights Executive has asserted or may have against any of the Released Parties with respect to any Released Claim.
6.Executive’s Acknowledgments. By executing and delivering this Agreement, Executive expressly acknowledges that:
(a)Executive has carefully read this Agreement and has had sufficient time to consider it;
(b)Executive is receiving, pursuant to this Agreement, consideration in addition to anything of value to which Executive is already entitled;
(c)Executive has been advised, and hereby is advised in writing, to discuss this Agreement with an attorney of Executive’s choice and Executive has had an adequate opportunity to do so prior to executing this Agreement;
(d)Executive fully understands the final and binding effect of this Agreement; the only promises made to Executive to sign this Agreement are those contained herein; and Executive is signing this Agreement knowingly, voluntarily and of Executive’s own free will, and Executive understands and agrees to each of the terms of this Agreement; and
(e)No Released Party has provided any tax or legal advice regarding this Agreement and Executive has had an adequate opportunity to receive sufficient tax and legal advice from advisors of Executive’s own choosing such that Executive enters into this Agreement with full understanding of the tax and legal implications thereof.
7.Reaffirmation of Release. On the Separation Date or within 21 days thereafter, Executive shall execute the Release Agreement that is attached as Exhibit B (the “Confirming Release”), and return her executed Confirming Release to the Company pursuant to the Notice provision set forth in Section 19 below, so that it is received by Company no later than 21 days after the Separation Date. Executive acknowledges and agrees that this provides sufficient time to consider the Confirming Release. Executive further acknowledges and agrees that, as a condition of receiving the compensation and benefits described in Section 2, she is required to timely execute and return the Confirming Release and not exercise her revocation right as described therein.
6


8.Return of Property. Executive warrants that, within five (5) days following the Separation Date, Executive will have returned to the Company all property belonging to the Company or any other Released Party, including all documents, computer files and other electronically stored information, client materials and other materials provided to Executive by the Company or any other Released Party in the course of Executive’s employment, and Executive further represents and warrants that Executive has not maintained a copy of any such materials in any form.
9.Applicable Law. This Agreement is entered into under, and shall be governed for all purposes by, the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia without reference to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.
10.Dispute Resolution. Any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be subject to the arbitration and dispute resolution provisions set forth in Section 11 of that certain At-Will Employment, Confidential Information, Invention Assignment and Arbitration Agreement, effective as of January 12, 2017 (the “NDA”). EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OR A COURT TRIAL IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.
11.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts (including electronic counterparts), each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same Agreement.
12.Amendment; Entire Agreement. Subject to Section 14 below, this Agreement may not be changed orally but only by an agreement in writing agreed to and signed by the Party to be charged. This Agreement, the Indemnification Agreement, and the NDA constitute the entire agreement of the Parties with regard to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings, oral or written, between Executive and any Released Party with regard to the subject matter hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company’s provision of the consideration set forth in Section 2 above will fully and finally satisfy any and all rights that Executive ever could have pursuant to the Severance Agreement, and Executive shall not be entitled to any payments pursuant to the Severance Agreement in addition to the payments described in Section 2 above.
13.Third-Party Beneficiaries. Executive expressly acknowledges and agrees that each Released Party that is not a signatory to this Agreement shall be a third-party beneficiary of Executive’s releases, representations, and covenants herein and shall be entitled to enforce such releases, representations, and covenants as if a party hereto.
14.Severability and Modification. Any term or provision of this Agreement (or parts thereof) that renders such term or provision (or part thereof) or any other term or provision (or part thereof) of this Agreement invalid or unenforceable in any respect shall be severable and shall be modified or severed to the extent necessary to avoid rendering such term or provision (or part thereof) invalid or unenforceable, and such severance or modification shall be accomplished in the manner that most nearly preserves the benefit of the Parties’ bargain hereunder.
7


15.Withholding of Taxes and Other Deductions. The Company may withhold from any payments made pursuant to this Agreement all federal, state, local, and other taxes and withholdings as may be required by any law or governmental regulation or ruling.
16.Continued Effectiveness of Restrictive Covenants.
(a)Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive is subject to continuing obligations pursuant to the NDA (the “Restrictive Covenants”), including obligations with respect to non-disclosure, non-competition, and non-solicitation. Executive expressly recognizes the enforceability and continuing effectiveness of those covenants within the NDA, and promises to abide by such covenants following the date Executive enters into this Agreement.
(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement or the Restrictive Covenants shall prohibit or restrict the Executive from lawfully (i) initiating communications directly with, cooperating with, providing information to, causing information to be provided to, or otherwise assisting in an investigation by, any Governmental Agency (including the SEC) regarding a possible violation of any law; (ii) responding to any inquiry or legal process directed to Executive from any Governmental Agency; (iii) testifying, participating or otherwise assisting in an action or proceeding by any Governmental Agency relating to a possible violation of law; or (iv) making any other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of any applicable law. Nothing in this Agreement or the Restrictive Covenants requires Executive to obtain prior authorization from the Company before engaging in any conduct described in the previous sentence, or to notify the Company or any other Released Party that Executive has engaged in any such conduct. Further, pursuant to the federal Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, Executive shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret Law for the disclosure of a trade secret that: (x) is made (A) in confidence to a federal, state or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney and (B) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; (y) is made to Executive’s attorney in relation to a lawsuit for retaliation against Executive for reporting a suspected violation of law; or (z) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. Nothing in this Agreement or the Restrictive Covenants requires Executive to obtain prior authorization from the Company before engaging in any conduct described in the previous sentence, or to notify the Company or any other Release Party that Executive has engaged in any such conduct.
(c)Nothing in this Agreement or the Restrictive Covenants shall be interpreted or applied in a manner to prevent or restrict Executive from practicing law, as it is the intent of the Restrictive Covenants to create certain limitations on Executive’s business activities only, and not to create limitations that would restrict Executive from practicing law.  Executive acknowledges and agrees that, Executive shall be bound by all ethical and professional obligations (including those with respect to conflicts and confidentiality) that arise from Executive’s provision of legal services to, and acting as legal counsel for, the Company and, as applicable, the other Released Parties.
17.Section 409A.
8


(a)For purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (“Section 409A”), each installment payment provided under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment. To the extent that any right to reimbursement of expenses or payment of any benefit in-kind under this Agreement constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A), (i) any such expense reimbursement shall be made by the Company no later than the last day of Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which such expense was incurred by Executive, (ii) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and (iii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits to be provided in any other taxable year; provided, that the foregoing clause shall not be violated with regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered by Section 105(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 solely because such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period in which the arrangement is in effect.
(b)Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if any payment or benefit provided for herein would be considered deferred compensation under Section 409A, then such payment or benefit shall not be paid or otherwise provided unless Executive has incurred a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, and further, if any such payment or benefit would be subject to additional taxes and interest under Section 409A if Executive’s receipt of such payment or benefit is not delayed until the earlier of (i) the date of Executive’s death or (ii) the date that is six months after the Separation Date (such date, the “Section 409A Payment Date”), then such payment or benefit shall not be provided to Executive (or Executive’s estate, if applicable) until the Section 409A Payment Date.
(c)Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company makes no representations that the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement are exempt from, or compliant with, Section 409A and in no event shall any Released Party be liable for all or any portion of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by Executive on account of non-compliance with Section 409A.
18.Interpretation. Titles and headings to Sections hereof are for the purpose of reference only and shall in no way limit, define or otherwise affect the provisions hereof. All references herein to a statute, agreement, instrument or other document shall be deemed to refer to such statute, agreement, instrument or other document as amended, supplemented, modified and restated from time to time. The word “or” as used herein is not exclusive and is deemed to have the meaning “and/or.” The words “herein”, “hereof”, “hereunder” and other compounds of the word “here” shall refer to the entire Agreement (including all Exhibits hereto) and not to any particular provision hereof. The use herein of the word “including” following any general statement, term or matter shall not be construed to limit such statement, term or matter to the specific items or matters set forth immediately following such word or to similar items or matters, whether or not non-limiting language (such as “without limitation”, “but not limited to”, or words of similar import) is used with reference thereto, but rather shall be deemed to refer to all other items or matters that could reasonably fall within the broadest possible scope of such general statement, term or matter. Neither this Agreement nor any uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed or resolved against any Party hereto, whether under any rule of
9


construction or otherwise. On the contrary, this Agreement has been reviewed by each of the Parties hereto and shall be construed and interpreted according to the ordinary meaning of the words used so as to fairly accomplish the purposes and intentions of the Parties.
19.Notices. All notices and other communications under this Agreement must be in writing and must be given by personal delivery, email transmission, or certified or registered mail with return receipt requested, when sent to the respective persons below:

This Confirming Release Agreement (the “Confirming Release”) is that certain Confirming Release referenced in Section 7 of the Separation and Release Agreement (the “Separation Agreement”), entered into by and between comScore, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Carol DiBattiste (“Executive”). Unless sooner revoked by Executive pursuant to the terms of Section 5 below, Executive’s acceptance of this Confirming Release becomes irrevocable and this Confirming Release becomes effective on the eighth day after Executive signs it. Capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined have the meanings assigned to them in the Separation Agreement. In signing below, Executive agrees as follows:
1.Release of Claims.
(a)For good and valuable consideration, including the Company’s agreement to provide the consideration set forth in Section 2 of the Separation Agreement (and any portion thereof), Executive hereby forever releases, discharges and acquits the Company, its present and former subsidiaries and other affiliates, and each of the foregoing entities’ respective past, present and future subsidiaries, affiliates, stockholders, members, partners, directors, officers, managers, employees, agents, attorneys, heirs, predecessors, successors and representatives in their personal and representative capacities, as well as all employee benefit plans maintained by the Company or any of its affiliates and all fiduciaries and administrators of any such plans, in their personal and representative capacities (collectively, the “Confirming Released Parties”), from liability for, and Executive hereby waives, any and all claims, damages, or causes of action of any kind related to Executive’s employment with any Confirming Released Party, the termination of such employment, ownership of equity in the Company and any other acts or omissions related to any matter on or prior to the time that Executive executes this Confirming Release, whether arising under federal or state laws or the laws of any other jurisdiction, including (i) any alleged violation through such date of: (A) any federal, state or local anti-discrimination or anti-retaliation law, including the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (including as amended by the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act), Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, Sections 1981 through 1988 of Title 42 of the United States Code, and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990; (B) the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”); (C) the Immigration Reform Control Act; (D) the National Labor Relations Act; (E) the Occupational Safety and Health Act; (F) the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993; (G) any federal, state or local wage and hour law; (H) the Securities Act of 1933; (I) the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; (J) the Investment Advisers Act of 1940; (K) the Investment Company Act of 1940; (L) the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995; (M) the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002; (N) the Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010; (O) the Virginians with Disabilities Act, the Virginia Human Rights Act, the Virginia Equal Pay Act, the Virginia Genetic Testing Law, the Virginia Occupational Safety and Health Act, the Virginia Minimum Wage Act, the Virginia Payment of Wage Law, the Virginia Right to Work Law; (P) any applicable state employment and securities
Exhibit B-1


laws; (Q) any other local, state or federal law, regulation, ordinance or orders which may have afforded any legal or equitable causes of action of any nature; or (R) any public policy, contract, tort, or common law claim or claim for defamation, emotional distress, fraud or misrepresentation of any kind; (ii) any allegation for costs, fees, or other expenses including attorneys’ fees incurred in, or with respect to, a Further Released Claim; (iii) any and all rights, benefits, or claims Executive may have under any employment contract (including the Severance Agreement), incentive or compensation plan or agreement or under any other benefit plan, program or practice; and (iv) any claim for compensation, damages or benefits of any kind not expressly set forth in the Separation Agreement (collectively, the “Further Released Claims”). This Confirming Release is not intended to indicate that any such claims exist or that, if they do exist, they are meritorious. Rather, Executive is simply agreeing that any and all potential claims of this nature that Executive may have against any of the Confirming Released Parties, regardless of whether they actually exist, are expressly settled, compromised and waived. THIS RELEASE INCLUDES MATTERS ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE SOLE OR PARTIAL NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER GROSS OR SIMPLE) OR OTHER FAULT, INCLUDING STRICT LIABILITY, OF ANY OF THE RELEASED PARTIES.
(b)In no event shall the Further Released Claims include (i) any claim that arises after Executive signs this Confirming Release, (ii) any claim to vested benefits under an employee benefit plan that is subject to ERISA or (iii) any claim to indemnification under the Indemnification Agreement that arises after Executive signs this Confirming Release. Further notwithstanding this release of liability, nothing in this Confirming Release prevents Executive from filing any non-legally waivable claim (including a challenge to the validity of this Confirming Release) with any Governmental Agencies or participating in any investigation or proceeding conducted by any Governmental Agency or cooperating with such an agency or providing documents or other information to a Governmental Agency; however, Executive understands and agrees that, to the extent permitted by law, Executive is waiving any and all rights to recover any monetary or personal relief from a Confirming Released Party as a result of such Governmental Agency proceeding or subsequent legal actions. Further notwithstanding this release of liability, nothing in this Confirming Release limits Executive’s right to receive an award for information provided to a Governmental Agency.
2.Representations and Warranties Regarding Claims. Executive hereby represents and warrants that, as of the date on which she signs this Confirming Release, she has not filed any claims, complaints, charges, or lawsuits against any of the Confirming Released Parties with any governmental agency or with any state or federal court or arbitrator for, or with respect to, a matter, claim, or incident that occurred or arose out of one or more occurrences that took place on or prior to the date on which Executive signs this Confirming Release. Executive hereby further represents and warrants that she has not made any assignment, sale, delivery, transfer, or conveyance of any rights Executive has asserted or may have against any of the Confirming Released Parties with respect to any Further Released Claim.
3.Satisfaction of Severance Obligations; Receipt of Leaves, Bonuses, and Other Compensation. Executive acknowledges and agrees that, with the exception of any base salary earned by her in the pay period in which the Separation Date occurred (if such base salary has
2


not been paid as of the time that Executive executes this Confirming Release), and any sums to which she may be entitled following the date that she signs this Confirming Release pursuant to Section 2 of the Separation Agreement, she has been paid in full all bonuses, been provided all benefits, and otherwise received all wages, compensation, and other sums that she has been owed by each Confirming Released Party. Executive further acknowledges and agrees that she has received or has waived all leaves (paid and unpaid) that she has been entitled to receive from each Confirming Released Party.
4.Executive’s Acknowledgments. By executing and delivering this Confirming Release, Executive expressly acknowledges that:
(a)Executive has carefully read this Confirming Release and has had sufficient time (and at least 21 days) to consider it;
(b)Executive is receiving, pursuant to the Separation Agreement and her execution of this Confirming Release, consideration in addition to anything of value to which Executive is already entitled;
(c)Executive has been advised, and hereby is advised in writing, to discuss this Confirming Release with an attorney of Executive’s choice and Executive has had an adequate opportunity to do so prior to executing this Confirming Release;
(d)Executive fully understands the final and binding effect of this Confirming Release; the only promises made to Executive to sign this Confirming Release are those contained herein and in the Separation Agreement; and Executive is signing this Confirming Release knowingly, voluntarily and of Executive’s own free will, and Executive understands and agrees to each of the terms of this Confirming Release; and
(e)The only matters relied upon by Executive and causing Executive to sign this Confirming Release are the provisions set forth in writing within the four corners of this Confirming Release and the Separation Agreement (and, to the extent referenced therein, the NDA).
5.Revocation Right. Notwithstanding the initial effectiveness of this Confirming Release, Executive may revoke the delivery (and therefore the effectiveness) of this Confirming Release within the seven-day period beginning on the date Executive executes this Confirming Release (such seven day period being referred to herein as the “Confirming Release Revocation Period”). To be effective, such revocation must be in writing signed by Executive and must be received by the Company, care of Sara Dunn at 11950 Democracy Drive, Suite 600, Reston, Virginia 20190 (e-mail: sdunn@comscore.com) so that it is received by Ms. Dunn before 11:59 p.m. EST, on the last day of the Confirming Release Revocation Period. If an effective revocation is delivered in the foregoing manner and timeframe, then no consideration shall be provided to Executive pursuant to Section 2 of the Separation Agreement, and the release of claims set forth in Section 1 of this Confirming Release shall be of no force or effect, and all remaining provisions of the Separation Agreement and this Confirming Release shall remain in full force and effect.
3


6.Return of Property. Executive represents and warrants that Executive has returned to the Company all property belonging to the Company or any other Released Party, including all documents, computer files and other electronically stored information, client materials and other materials provided to Executive by the Company or any other Released Party in the course of her employment, and Executive further represents and warrants that Executive has not maintained a copy of any such materials in any form.
EXECUTIVE HAS CAREFULLY READ THIS CONFIRMING RELEASE, FULLY UNDERSTANDS THIS CONFIRMING RELEASE, AND SIGNS IT AS HER OWN FREE ACT.
