Recitals Background · Intent

This Content Publishing Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of the Effective Date set forth above, by and between Platform Media Company, a Delaware limited liability company doing business as Platform and operating the Find Your Platform editorial network at findyourplatform.com (the “Publisher”), and the Contributor identified above (the “Contributor”).

Publisher operates a niche B2B editorial network of which the Private Lending News edition (the “Edition”) is one (1) vertical. Contributor wishes to place sponsored content within the Edition during a defined ninety (90) day engagement on the founding-contributor pricing tier described herein, and Publisher is willing to provide such placement on the terms set forth below.

1 · Term Engagement Period
Effective Date
July 9, 2026
First monthly issue placement begins this date.
Term Length
90 Days
Three (3) consecutive monthly issues of the Edition.
Expiration
October 8, 2026
Renewable by mutual written consent at standard rates.

The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and continue for ninety (90) days (the “Term”), covering three (3) consecutive monthly issues of the Edition. Unless renewed in a writing signed by both parties, this Agreement shall automatically expire at the end of the Term without further action by either party. Any renewal beyond the Term shall be subject to Publisher’s then-current standard rate card and is not guaranteed under founding-contributor pricing.

2 · Deliverables What Contributor Receives

During each calendar month of the Term, Contributor shall receive the following placement in the Edition:

Month Issue Window Blocks Max Pieces Editorial Deadline
Month 1 July 2026 Issue 2 Blocks Up to 4 Pieces 5 business days prior to publication
Month 2 August 2026 Issue 2 Blocks Up to 4 Pieces 5 business days prior to publication
Month 3 September 2026 Issue 2 Blocks Up to 4 Pieces 5 business days prior to publication

Add-on services beyond the Blocks defined above — including, without limitation, Publisher-produced article writing, image creation, white papers, presentations, and video creation — are not included in this Agreement and shall be quoted separately at Publisher’s then-current rates.

3 · Pricing & Payment Founding Contributor Rate

The fee for the Term is Seven Hundred Fifty Dollars ($750.00 USD) per month, for a total Term fee of Two Thousand Two Hundred Fifty Dollars ($2,250.00 USD) (the “Fee”). The Fee reflects a founding-contributor courtesy rate extended by personal invitation; standard rates published on Publisher’s rate card shall apply to any extension, renewal, or expansion of scope.

Month 2 — August 2026 2 Blocks / up to 4 pieces of content $750.00

Initial here

3.2 Method of Payment

All payments shall be made in U.S. Dollars by ACH transfer, credit card, or other electronic method designated by Publisher. Contributor shall provide a valid payment method at signing for recurring billing (Option B) and authorizes Publisher to charge the elected payment method automatically on each billing date. Bank wire details and credit card authorization forms will be furnished by Publisher upon execution.

3.3 Late Payment

If any payment due under this Agreement is not received by Publisher within five (5) business days of its due date, Publisher may, at its discretion: (a) assess a late fee equal to the lesser of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month or the maximum rate permitted by applicable Delaware law; (b) suspend Contributor’s Block placement in any then-unpublished issue until the delinquent amount is paid in full; and/or (c) terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9 below.

3.4 Non-Refundable; No Pro-Ration

Except as expressly set forth herein, all amounts paid under this Agreement are non-refundable. Once a monthly issue containing Contributor’s Blocks has been published, the Fee allocable to that month is fully earned by Publisher and shall not be pro-rated or refunded for any reason, including but not limited to Contributor’s failure to deliver content by the editorial deadline or Contributor’s election not to use one or both Blocks for that month.

4 · Content Submission & Editorial Standards Baseline Rules

4.1 Delivery Specifications

For each monthly issue, Contributor shall deliver finished content (text, images, links, byline, and any required disclosures) to Publisher no later than five (5) business days prior to that issue’s scheduled publication date. Content delivered after the deadline may, at Publisher’s sole discretion, be held for the following month’s issue or forfeited without refund. Publisher shall provide Contributor with publication dates and technical specifications (file formats, image dimensions, character counts) no later than fifteen (15) days prior to each issue.

4.2 Content Ownership & License

Contributor retains all right, title, and interest in and to the content it submits (the “Contributor Content”), including all copyrights, trademarks, and other intellectual property rights. Contributor hereby grants Publisher a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable license during the Term, and a perpetual non-exclusive archival license thereafter, to host, display, reproduce, distribute, transmit, and promote the Contributor Content as part of the Edition, in archival back-issues, in promotional excerpts and marketing collateral, and across Publisher’s associated channels (email, web, social, RSS, syndication partners).

4.3 Contributor Representations & Warranties

Contributor represents and warrants that: (a) it owns or has obtained all rights necessary to grant the licenses set forth in Section 4.2; (b) the Contributor Content does not and will not infringe, misappropriate, or violate any third party’s intellectual property, privacy, publicity, or contractual rights; (c) the Contributor Content is accurate, not misleading, and contains no defamatory, obscene, unlawful, or fraudulent material; (d) all claims made about products, services, performance, returns, lending terms, regulatory compliance, or financial outcomes are truthful, substantiable, and compliant with applicable U.S. federal and state law (including, where applicable, the rules of the Federal Trade Commission, the Truth in Lending Act, and analogous Delaware consumer-protection statutes); and (e) any required disclosures (sponsorship, affiliation, regulated-industry disclaimers) are included in the Contributor Content as delivered.

4.4 Editorial Review & Right of Refusal

All Contributor Content is subject to Publisher’s editorial review. Publisher reserves the right, in its sole and reasonable discretion, to (a) request revisions to Contributor Content prior to publication; (b) require the inclusion of a sponsored-content disclosure label conforming to FTC guidance and Publisher’s editorial standards; (c) decline to publish any Contributor Content that, in Publisher’s reasonable judgment, is materially inaccurate, defamatory, unlawful, infringes third-party rights, is competitively or reputationally inconsistent with the Edition’s editorial standards, or violates Section 4.3. Where content is declined under this subsection, Publisher will so notify Contributor and provide Contributor a reasonable opportunity to cure the defect or substitute alternative content for the affected Block(s) in the same monthly cycle without forfeiture of the corresponding Fee.

4.5 Editorial Independence

This Agreement does not grant Contributor any right to direct, edit, or approve non-Contributor editorial content of the Edition, the editorial calendar, or the placement of competing or adjacent content. Publisher retains full editorial control of the Edition.

4.6 Sponsored-Content Disclosure

All Blocks shall be clearly labeled as “Sponsored,” “Partner Content,” “In Partnership With,” or substantially similar language reasonably designed to comply with FTC guidance on native advertising and disclosure obligations. Contributor consents to such labeling.

5 · Confidentiality Pricing & Non-Public Information

The founding-contributor pricing set forth in Section 3 is extended as a personal courtesy to friends and colleagues invited during the first ninety (90) days of the Edition’s launch and is confidential. Contributor agrees not to disclose the Fee or the pricing structure of this Agreement to any third party other than its accountants, attorneys, or other professional advisors bound by duties of confidentiality, or as required by applicable law. Publisher agrees to treat any non-public information of Contributor disclosed in connection with this Agreement (including business plans, customer lists, and financial information) with the same degree of care as it uses to protect its own confidential information of like importance, and in no event less than reasonable care.

6 · Use of Marks & Promotion Trademarks & Cross-Promotion

Each party grants the other a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use its trade names, trademarks, and logos solely as reasonably necessary to perform under this Agreement — including, in Publisher’s case, to identify Contributor as a featured Block sponsor in the Edition and in good-faith promotion of the Edition. Neither party shall use the other’s marks in a manner that is disparaging, materially modifies the marks, or implies any endorsement, partnership, joint venture, or affiliation beyond the scope of this Agreement. All goodwill arising from such use shall inure to the benefit of the mark’s owner.

7 · Indemnification Mutual

Contributor shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Publisher and its members, managers, officers, employees, contractors, and affiliates from and against any and all third-party claims, damages, liabilities, losses, settlements, judgments, and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs (collectively, “Losses”) arising out of or relating to: (a) the Contributor Content (including any claim of infringement, misappropriation, defamation, or violation of law); (b) Contributor’s products, services, or business operations; or (c) Contributor’s breach of this Agreement, including any breach of its representations and warranties in Section 4.3.

Publisher shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Contributor and its officers, employees, and affiliates from and against any Losses arising out of or relating to (a) Publisher’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, or (b) any claim that Publisher’s editorial content (excluding Contributor Content and excluding content sourced or directed by Contributor) infringes a third party’s intellectual property rights.

The indemnified party shall (i) promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of any claim subject to indemnification, (ii) grant the indemnifying party sole control of the defense and settlement (provided that no settlement requiring an admission of liability by the indemnified party or imposing non-monetary obligations on it may be entered without that party’s prior written consent), and (iii) provide reasonable cooperation at the indemnifying party’s expense.

8 · Limitation of Liability Caps & Exclusions

EXCEPT FOR (i) EACH PARTY’S INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTION 7, (ii) BREACH OF CONFIDENTIALITY UNDER SECTION 5, (iii) CONTRIBUTOR’S PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS, AND (iv) EITHER PARTY’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT: (A) IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL, OR DATA, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES; AND (B) EACH PARTY’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNTS PAID OR PAYABLE BY CONTRIBUTOR TO PUBLISHER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT DURING THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY.

9 · Termination For Cause & Effect

9.1 Termination for Cause

Either party may terminate this Agreement, effective immediately upon written notice, if the other party: (a) materially breaches this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice describing the breach in reasonable detail; (b) becomes insolvent, files or has filed against it a petition under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or ceases doing business; or (c) violates Section 5 (Confidentiality) or any obligation owed under applicable law where such violation cannot reasonably be cured.

9.2 Termination for Editorial Conflict

Publisher may, upon written notice, terminate this Agreement if Contributor’s ongoing business activities, public statements, or content submissions become materially inconsistent with the editorial standards of the Edition such that continued placement would, in Publisher’s reasonable judgment, harm the editorial integrity or reputation of the Edition. In such case, Publisher shall refund the pro-rata Fee for any monthly issue(s) not yet published as of the termination date.

9.3 Effect of Termination

Upon termination or expiration: (a) all unpaid amounts that accrued prior to the effective date of termination become immediately due and payable; (b) the licenses granted in Sections 4.2 and 6 with respect to material already published shall continue on an archival, non-exclusive basis as needed for Publisher to maintain its back-issue archive; (c) the parties’ rights and obligations under Sections 3.4 (Non-Refundable), 4.2 (archival license), 5 (Confidentiality), 7 (Indemnification), 8 (Limitation of Liability), 10 (Governing Law), and 11 (General) shall survive.

10 · Governing Law & Dispute Resolution Delaware

This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice-of-law or conflict-of-laws principles that would require the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. The parties agree that the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.

The parties shall first attempt in good faith to resolve any dispute arising under or relating to this Agreement through informal negotiation between authorized representatives. If the dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days, the parties agree to submit the dispute to binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, with the seat of arbitration in Wilmington, Delaware, before a single arbitrator. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any state or federal court located in New Castle County, Delaware, to protect its intellectual property, confidential information, or trade secrets. Each party irrevocably consents to the personal jurisdiction and venue of such Delaware courts for that limited purpose.

JURY TRIAL WAIVER. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY DELAWARE LAW, EACH PARTY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.

11 · General Standard Provisions

11.1 Entire Agreement

This Agreement, together with any exhibits or schedules expressly incorporated by reference, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to its subject matter and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous proposals, negotiations, representations, and agreements, whether written or oral.

11.2 Amendments

No amendment or modification of this Agreement shall be valid unless in writing and signed by an authorized representative of each party. Email confirmations exchanged by authorized representatives expressly referencing this Agreement and the change being made shall satisfy this requirement.

11.3 Assignment

Neither party may assign this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party, except that Publisher may assign this Agreement, without consent, to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, reorganization, or sale of substantially all of its assets relating to the Edition. Any prohibited assignment shall be null and void.

11.4 Independent Contractors

The parties are independent contractors. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to create a partnership, joint venture, agency, employment, or fiduciary relationship between the parties. Neither party has authority to bind the other.

11.5 Force Majeure

Neither party shall be liable for any failure or delay in performance (other than payment obligations) caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, civil unrest, government action, internet or utility outages, labor disputes, or pandemic-related disruptions, provided the affected party notifies the other promptly and uses commercially reasonable efforts to resume performance.

11.6 Notices

All notices under this Agreement shall be in writing and delivered to the email addresses set forth on the signature page (or to such other address as a party may designate in writing), and shall be deemed given upon confirmation of receipt or, for hand-delivered or courier notices, upon actual delivery.

11.7 Severability

If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect, and the invalid provision shall be deemed modified to the minimum extent necessary to render it valid, legal, and enforceable while preserving the parties’ original intent.

11.8 Waiver

No waiver of any term or condition of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing signed by the waiving party. The failure of either party to enforce any provision shall not constitute a waiver of that or any other provision.

11.9 Counterparts & Electronic Signatures

This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Signatures delivered by electronic means (including DocuSign, PDF, or scanned image) shall be deemed original signatures for all purposes, and the parties consent to the use of electronic signatures pursuant to the Delaware Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, 6 Del. C. §§ 12A-101 et seq., and the federal E-SIGN Act, 15 U.S.C. §§ 7001 et seq.
