(b) The Operative Documents and any other agreement or instrument that may restrict the ability of the Company to make any dividend or redemption payments may be created, amended, modified or supplemented, from time to time, and may be refinanced, extended or substituted, from time to time, without notice to, or the consent or approval of, the Investor unless notice to, or consent or approval of, the Investor is required by the terms of such Operative Document.

(c) The right of the holders of the Common Stock to receive payment or to realize any investment return upon a liquidation, asset sale, change of control or other event involving the Company or its subsidiaries will be subject to the terms of the applicable Operative Documents and to the Company’s repayment of indebtedness, obligations and expenses, including any related fees and expenses. The Company is under no obligation to pursue or consummate any liquidation, asset sale, change of control or other revenue generating transaction or event and, if any such transaction or event is pursued or consummated, there can be no assurances as to the timing, value, investment returns, consideration or terms and conditions associated therewith.

(e) An investment in the Common Stock is a speculative investment which involves a high risk of loss and that on and after the date hereof, there will be no public market for the Common Stock and the Company does not contemplate that a public market will develop.

(f) Nothing in this Agreement shall constitute an agreement by, or shall impose any obligation upon, the Company or its subsidiaries to employ or engage, or to continue to employ or engage, the Investor, or shall constitute an agreement by, or shall impose any obligation upon, the Company or its subsidiaries with respect to the terms and conditions of employment or engagement of the Investor, and will not limit or restrict, in any manner, the Company’s or its subsidiaries’ right or ability to terminate the employment or engagement of the Investor.

5. Securities Law and Other Matters. The Investor represents and warrants to the Company that:

(b) (i) The Common Stock being purchased by the Investor hereunder has not been registered under the Securities Act on the ground that the sales of the Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement are exempt under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act as not constituting a distribution, and that the Company’s reliance on such exemption is predicated in part on the Investor’s representation which the Investor herewith makes that the Common Stock have been acquired solely by and for the account of the Investor for investment purposes only,

and are not being purchased for subdivision, fractionalization, resale or distribution and other than as expressly set forth in the Operative Documents, the Investor has no contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any other member of the Company or any one else to sell, transfer or pledge to such other member or anyone else the Common Stock being sold to the Investor (or any part thereof), and the Investor has no present plans or intentions to enter into any such contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement; (ii) the Common Stock being sold to the Investor must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or a transfer is made pursuant to an exemption from such registration, including, for example, pursuant to Rule 144 thereunder and that the Company has no agreements in respect of registering the Common Stock under Federal or state law (except for the registration of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Common Stock, pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement constituting one of the Operative Documents) and (iii) the Investor’s financial condition is such that the Investor is not under any current necessity or constraint, and does not foresee in the future any necessity or constraint, to dispose of the Common Stock being sold to the Investor to satisfy any existing or contemplated debt or undertaking.

(c) In the event that in the future the Company engages in any negotiation or transaction (including a merger or consolidation or other reorganization by or of the Company) in which Regulation D under the Securities Act may or will be available to the Company, if the Investor is not then an accredited investor, the Investor agrees irrevocably (and with the knowledge and intention that the other holders of the Company’s equity interests of all classes will rely thereon in making their respective present investment decisions) that the Investor will, within five (5) business days of notice from the Company, which notice may be given in the sole discretion of the Company, appoint a qualified purchaser’s representative or representatives so that the maximum benefits of Regulation D shall be available to the Company and all of its stockholders, as applicable.

Any such notice by the Investor shall constitute his binding agreement to sell his Common Stock on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Co-Sale Notice. The failure of the Investor to provide such notice within such 15-day period shall, for the purposes of this Section 10, be deemed to constitute a waiver by the Investor of his right to transfer his Common Stock in connection with the proposed transfer described in such Co-Sale Notice. If the terms of the proposed transfer change from those set forth in the original Co-Sale Notice, the Transferring Stockholders shall issue a revised Co-Sale Notice stating such revised terms, and the Investor shall have an additional 15-day period to exercise (in the manner set forth herein) his rights hereunder. The Transferring Stockholders agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the agreement of the prospective purchaser to the participation of the Investor in accordance with this Section 10, to consummate the proposed transactions contemplated by this Section 10. The Investor agrees to use his commercially reasonable efforts, in good faith and in a timely manner, to take, or cause to be taken, all action and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable, under applicable laws and regulations (including, without limitation, to ensure that all appropriate legal and other requirements are met and all consents of third persons relating to the Investor that are required to include the Investor in the transaction are obtained), to consummate the proposed transactions contemplated by this Section 10. The Investor shall not be obligated to transfer any Common Stock pursuant to this Section 10 unless the Investor has notified the Transferring Stockholders of his desire to transfer his Common Stock. Any and all transfers of Common Stock by the Investor pursuant to this Section 10 shall be made concurrently with the transfer of Common Stock by the Transferring Stockholders.

(e) Upon request of the Investor, the Transferring Stockholders and the Company shall provide to the Investor copies of all documents relating to the proposed transfer described in the Co-Sale Notice and such other materials and information as the Investor may from time to time reasonably request.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10, the rights of the Investor under this Section 10 shall not apply to any transfer by a Stockholder (i) to any Affiliate of any such Stockholder; provided that any such transferee shall have joined this Agreement (or a similar agreement satisfactory to the Company) and agreed to be bound by the provisions hereof applicable to the Investor immediately prior to such transfer, (ii) to the public pursuant to a registration as contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement constituting one of the Operative Documents unless more than 90% of the Common Stock then outstanding is to be transferred to the public in such transaction or (iii) in connection with any transaction in which the Investor is required to participate in pursuant to Section 9 of this Agreement.

11. Restrictions On Other Agreements; After Acquired Common Stock and Other Securities.

(a) The Investor shall not grant any proxy or enter into or agree to be bound by any voting trust with respect to the Common Stock nor shall the Investor enter into any other agreements or arrangements of any kind with any Person with respect to the Common Stock on terms which conflict with the provisions of this Agreement (whether or not such proxy, voting trust, agreements or arrangements are with other holders of Common Stock that are not parties to this Agreement or otherwise), including but not limited to, agreements or arrangements with respect to the acquisition, disposition or voting of shares of Common Stock inconsistent herewith.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, DYNACAST INTERNATIONAL INC., a Delaware corporation (together with its successors, the “Company”), hereby promises to pay to _______________________ (together with its successors and permitted assigns, the “Holder”), at the Holder’s residence at __________________________________, the principal amount of _______________________ ($_________) on the Maturity Date. Certain capitalized terms are used in this Note as defined in Section 6.

Section 1. Payment; Interest.

1.1 The outstanding principal amount of this Note shall bear interest (computed on the basis of a 365 day year, as the case may be) accruing daily at a rate equal to five percent (5%) per annum from (but excluding) the date hereof to (and including) the date on which the principal amount of this Note is paid in full, regardless of the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings against the Company.

Section 5. Subordination.

5.1 Amounts Payable Subordinated to Senior Indebtedness. Notwithstanding any provision of this Note to the contrary, the Company covenants and agrees, and the Holder by acceptance of this Note likewise covenants and agrees, that all Amounts Payable shall be subordinated to the extent set forth in this Section 5 to the prior payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness. This Section 5 shall constitute a continuing offer to and covenant with all persons who become holders of, or continue to hold, Senior Indebtedness (irrespective of whether such Senior Indebtedness was created or acquired before or after the issuance of this Note). The provisions of this Section 5 are made for the benefit of all present and future holders of Senior Indebtedness (and their successors and assigns), and shall be enforceable by them directly against the Holder.

5.2 Priority and Payment Over of Proceeds in Certain Events.

(a) Upon any payment by or on behalf of the Company or distribution of assets of the Company, whether in cash, property, securities or otherwise, in the event of any dissolution, winding up or total or partial liquidation, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, protection, relief or composition, or assignment for the benefit of creditors of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary or in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, relief or other proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other marshalling of all or part of the assets and liabilities of the Company (the foregoing events herein collectively referred to as an “Insolvency Event”), all Senior Indebtedness shall first be paid in full in cash before the Holder shall be entitled to receive any payment by or on behalf of the Company or distribution of assets of the Company relating to any Amounts Payable. Upon any Insolvency Event, any payment by or on behalf of the Company or distribution of assets of the Company, whether in cash, property, securities or otherwise, to which the Holder would be entitled relating to any Amounts Payable, except for the provisions of this Section 5, shall, until payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness (including from any concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness), be made by the Company or by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other person making such payment or distribution, directly to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness or their representatives for application to the payment or prepayment of all such Senior Indebtedness.

If the Senior Indebtedness has not been paid in full in cash at a time in which the Company is subject to an Insolvency Event, (i) the holders of the Senior Indebtedness are hereby irrevocably authorized, but shall have no obligation, to demand, ▇▇▇ for, collect and receive every payment or distribution received on or after the Insolvency Event or to be received in respect of this Note (regardless of when originally due) in any insolvency proceeding and give acquittance therefor and to file claims and proofs of claim, as their interests may appear, and (ii) the Holder shall duly and promptly take, for the account of the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, as their interests may appear, such actions as the holders of the Senior Indebtedness may request to collect and receive all amounts payable by the Company in respect of this Note and to file appropriate claims or proofs of claim in respect of this Note.

(b) No payment shall be made by or on behalf of the Company with respect to any Amounts Payable or to acquire this Note (or any portion hereof) for cash, property, securities or otherwise, and, by virtue of accepting this Note and the benefits hereof, the Holder shall not be entitled, and will not take any action, including any judicial process, to accelerate, demand payment or enforce any Indebtedness in respect of this Note or any other claim with regard to any Amounts Payable if (i) such payment is prohibited by the terms of any Senior Indebtedness, (ii) there has occurred and is continuing a default in the payment of all or any portion of any Senior Indebtedness, it being understood that for purposes of this clause (ii), any payment of interest accrued on any Senior Indebtedness which is paid, in lieu of cash, with the issuance of a payment-in-kind obligation, shall be deemed to continue to be unpaid until such payment-in-kind obligation (and all interest accrued thereon) shall have been paid in full or (iii) any other default (not involving the non-payment of any Senior Indebtedness) shall have occurred which, including after giving any notice or the passage of time, or both, would allow holders of any Senior Indebtedness to accelerate or otherwise demand the payment thereof, and in the case of a default described in clause (iii), the holders of the Senior Indebtedness have, to the extent required under the documents evidencing the Senior Indebtedness given notice of such default to the Company (the date that such notice is received by the Company is the “Notice Date”); provided that such restrictions on actions, including judicial process, to accelerate, demand payment or enforce any such Indebtedness on claim will cease to be applicable twenty-four (24) months after the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default of the types referred to in Section 4.1(a) or (b). The Company shall promptly give written notice to the Holder of any written notice of default under the Senior Indebtedness.

(c) In the event of all or any portion of the principal amount of this Note becoming due before the Maturity Date (whether by declaration or otherwise), no payment shall be made by or on behalf of the Company on or with respect to any Amounts Payable or to acquire this Note (or any portion thereof) for cash, property, securities or otherwise until all Senior Indebtedness shall first have been paid in full in cash.

(d) If, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of clauses (a) through (c) prohibiting payments or distributions, the Holder shall, on or after the Notice Date or the occurrence of any Insolvency Event, have received, directly or indirectly, by setoff, redemption, purchase or in any other manner, any payment of, or on account of, any Amounts Payable that was prohibited by

this Section 5, before all Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full in cash, then and in such event such payments or distributions shall be received and held in trust for the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and promptly paid over or delivered to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay in full in cash such Senior Indebtedness in accordance with its terms after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, provided that any such payment which is, for any reason, not so paid over or delivered shall be held in trust by the Holder for the holders of Senior Indebtedness.

(e) So long as any Senior Indebtedness remains outstanding, or the commitment to make credit extensions of any Senior Indebtedness shall not have been terminated, the Holder will not be entitled to take, demand or receive, directly or indirectly, by setoff, redemption, purchase or in any other manner, any voluntary prepayment or other payment of any Amounts Payable in amounts or in a manner which are in violation of the provisions of this Section 5.

(f) Upon any payment or distribution of assets referred to in clause (a) above, the Holder shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction in which such dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, and upon a certificate of the receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other person making any such payment or distribution of assets, delivered to the Holder for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such distribution of assets, the holders of Senior Indebtedness and other Indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Section 5.

5.3 Rights of Holders of Senior Indebtedness Not To Be Impaired, etc.

(a) No right of any present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce the subordination and other terms and conditions provided herein shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Company with the terms and provisions and covenants herein regardless of any knowledge thereof any such holder may have or otherwise be charged with.

(b) This Section 5 may not be amended without the written consent of each holder of the Senior Indebtedness and of the Holder, and any purported amendment without such consent shall be void. No holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be prejudiced in such holder’s right to enforce the subordination and other terms and conditions of this Note by any act or failure to act by the Company or anyone in custody of its assets or property.

5.4 Subrogation. Subject to and upon the payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness, the Holder shall be subrogated, to the extent of payments or distributions made to the holders of Senior Indebtedness pursuant to or by reason of this Section 5, to the rights of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of assets of the Company made on such Senior Indebtedness until all amounts due under this Note shall be paid in full; and for the purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to holders of such Senior Indebtedness of any cash, property or securities to which the Holder would be entitled except for the provisions of this Section 5, and no payment over pursuant to the provisions of this

Section 5 to holders of such Senior Indebtedness by the Holder, shall, as among the Company, its creditors (other than holders of such Senior Indebtedness) and the Holder be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or on account of such Senior Indebtedness, it being understood that the provisions of this Section 5 are solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, on the one hand, and the Holder, on the other hand.

5.5 Obligations of the Company Unconditional. Nothing contained in this Note is intended to or shall impair, as between the Company and the Holder, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holder all Amounts Payable, as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or to affect the relative rights of the Holder and other creditors of the Company (other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness), except as provided in Section 5.2(b).

5.6 Section 5 Not To Prevent Events of Default. The failure to make a payment of any Amounts Payable by reason of any provision of this Section 5 shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence or consequences of an Event of Default under Section 4.1 hereof, except as provided in Section 5.2(b).

5.7 Additional Rights of Holders of Senior Indebtedness. Upon request by the Company, the Holder of this Note shall deliver to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or parties contemplating becoming holders of Senior Indebtedness a written statement confirming that (a) the provisions (including those of this Section 5) of this Note are in full force and effect; and (b) such party is or will be entitled to rely upon and enjoy the benefits of the provisions (including those of this Section 5) of this Note as a holder of Senior Indebtedness.

5.8 Senior Indebtedness Changes. By virtue of accepting this Note and the benefits hereof, the Holder hereby waives any and all notice of renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Senior Indebtedness, present or future, and agrees and consents that without notice to or consent of the Holder:

(a) the obligations and liabilities of the Company or any other party or parties under the Senior Indebtedness may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, refinanced, replaced, extended, refunded, modified, amended, accelerated, compromised, supplemented, terminated, increased, decreased, sold, exchanged, waived or released;

(e) the Company may incur any amount or type of Senior Indebtedness (including Senior Indebtedness owed to Affiliates), or modify, restate, refinance, replace or amend any Senior Indebtedness from time to time, on terms and conditions acceptable to the Company, without notice to or approval by the Holder. The Company shall deliver written notice to the Holder of all actions by the holders of Senior Indebtedness to accelerate payment of, or to exercise any other rights, remedies or powers under, the Senior Indebtedness.

5.9 Waivers. In the event the holders of Senior Indebtedness elect to exercise their remedies to liquidate any collateral given to secure the Senior Indebtedness, the Holder hereby waives any right it may have to contest the validity of or the value obtained as a result of the holders of Senior Indebtedness exercise of their remedies, including, but not limited to, a foreclosure, a sale pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code or the acceptance by the holders of Senior Indebtedness in lieu of foreclosure.
