one percent (1%) per annum, adjusted monthly based on the Prime in effect on the
first day of each calendar month during the term hereof.

               (b) Default Rate. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this

interest payable by Borrower to Lender exceed the maximum amount permitted under
any applicable law or regulation, and if any payments by Borrower exceed such
maximum amount, the excess shall be applied first to reduce the amounts owing to
Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in such order as Lender
may elect, next to reduce any other amounts owing by Borrower to Lender in such
order as Lender may elect, and any excess shall be refunded to Borrower.

balance of principal, interest, fees, costs, advances and any other amounts owed

maintain an account or accounts evidencing the Indebtedness of Borrower
resulting from Advances hereunder and other sums owed by Borrower pursuant to
the Loan Documents, and payments made from time to time under this Agreement. In
any legal action or proceeding in respect of this Agreement or the Note, the
entries made in such account or accounts shall be presumptive evidence of the
existence and amounts of the obligations of Borrower therein recorded absent
manifest error.

        Section 2.9 Payments and Computations.

               (a) Borrower shall pay all interest accruing on the outstanding
principal balance of the Indebtedness hereby evidenced in arrears on the first
day of each calendar month; provided, however, that so long as no Event of
Default is pending hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, Borrower
may elect, by written notice to Lender prior to the date when any monthly
payment of interest would otherwise be payable, to have the interest accruing
hereunder added to and become part of the principal balance of the indebtedness
hereby evidenced on the first day of every third calendar month during the term
hereof, and such quarterly capitalization of interest shall continue until
Borrower rescinds such election by written notice to Lender, or until the
occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder.

               (b) Borrower shall make each payment hereunder and under the
Note, without offset or deduction of any kind, on the day when due in U.S.
Dollars to Lender at 414 Olive Way, Suite 500, Seattle, Washington, or at such
other location designated by notice from Lender pursuant to the notice provision
of this Agreement, in immediately available funds. Any payment received by
Lender after such time shall be deemed to have been received on the next
succeeding Business Day.

               (c) All computations of interest shall be made by Lender on the
basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days
(including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for
which such interest or fees are payable. Each determination by Lender of an
interest rate or an increased cost or of illegality hereunder shall be
presumptive evidence thereof and binding for all purposes absent manifest error.

               (d) At the maturity date of the Note, in its sole discretion,
Lender may accept as payment for principal or interest then due thereunder,
shares of common stock of Loudeye Technologies, Inc. owned by Borrower and
pledged as collateral to secure Borrower's obligations thereunder. In the event
that Borrower desires to make payments in Loudeye shares and Lender is willing
to accept such shares in payment, the shares shall be valued at 80% of the
closing bid price of Loudeye common stock on the maturity date on the Nasdaq
Stock Market or such other market that is the principal trading market for
shares of Loudeye common stock as of such date.

        Section 2.10 Prepayments. Borrower may prepay its obligation hereunder
in full or in part at any time without premium or penalty.

        Section 3.1 Generally. The obligations of Borrower to Lender hereunder
and under the Note shall be secured by the following Collateral:

               (a) A first lien Deed of Trust, Security Agreement, Assignment of

therewith (the "Bell Street Deed of Trust"); alternatively, in Lender's sole
discretion, Lender may elect to require Borrower to execute and deliver to
Lender a modification of the Existing Deed of Trust in such form and on such
terms as Lender may require, and if Lender elects to require such a modification
in lieu of a new deed of trust, the term "Bell Street Deed of Trust" as used
herein shall be deemed to refer to such modification agreement.

               (b) A second lien Deed of Trust, Security Agreement, Assignment

defaults of Borrower under the Union Street First Deed of Trust and an
opportunity to cure such defaults prior to acceleration of the indebtedness
secured thereby;

               (c) UCC-1 financing statements, evidencing Lender's security
interest in any tangible and intangible personal property used in connection
with the real property described in the Deeds of Trust;

               (d) A first lien pledge of 4,600,000 shares of common stock in
Lender owned by Borrower, pursuant to the Security Agrement and the Account

to Lender and UCC-1 Financing Statements in favor of Lender as are required
pursuant to such Agreement; and

        Section 3.2 Additional Documents. In addition to the Deeds of Trust, 55
Bell Street and Tobiases shall be required to execute and deliver to Lender, at
Lender's request, a hazardous substance indemnification agreement and an
assignment of leases and rents with respect to the Bell Street Property and the
Union Street Property, respectively.

        Section 3.3 Title Policies. As a condition of receiving any Advances
hereunder, Borrower shall provide Lender, at Borrower's sole cost and expense,
with ALTA extended coverage mortgagee's policies of title insurance issued by
the Title Insurer, each in the amount of $2,000,000 (with pro tanto
endorsements), insuring the Bell Street Deed of Trust and the Union Street
Second Deed of Trust (collectively, the "Deeds of Trust") as a first lien and a
second lien, respectively, against each such property subject to no exceptions
for creditors' rights and no other exceptions except as are acceptable to Lender
in its discretion, and containing such endorsements as Lender may require in its
discretion. As an alternative to a new title policy insuring the Bell Street
Deed of Trust, Lender may in its discretion accept a modification endorsement
and such other endorsements as Lender may require, at Borrower's sole cost and
expense, to the Existing Title Policy, in form and content satisfactory to
Lender and providing coverage comparable in Lender's discretion to that
described above, if Lender accepts a modification of the Existing Deed of Trust
in lieu of a new Bell Street Deed of Trust as provided in Section 3.1 hereof.

        Section 3.4 Release of Collateral. Provided that at the time Borrower
shall request that Lender release (or subordinate, as applicable) its lien and
encumbrance on any of the Collateral described hereinabove, there is no default
or Event of Default pending hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents,
nor has any event occurred that with the passage of time, the giving of notice,
or the lapse of any period of grace ripen into a default, Borrower may obtain
the release of the Collateral upon written request to Lender under the following
terms and conditions:

               (a) Lender shall fully reconvey the Bell Street Deed of Trust at
such time as the outstanding balance of principal, together with any outstanding
interest that is to be capitalized pursuant to a notice given to Lender pursuant
to Section 2.8(a) hereof, is $1,000,000 or less, provided that in Lender's
reasonable judgment, the remaining Collateral pledged by Borrower is adequate to
secure the Indebtedness;


                                       8
<PAGE>

               (b) Lender shall fully reconvey the Union Street Second Deed of
Trust upon receipt of the Net Sales Proceeds (defined below) (if any) received
by Tobiases in a sale of the Union Street Property on terms and conditions
acceptable to Lender in its discretion; for purposes hereof, "Net Sales
Proceeds" shall mean the actual sales price of such property paid in an arms'
length sale, less the outstanding balance of the indebtedness secured by the
Union Street First Deed of Trust, reasonable and customary prorations and
closing costs (including without limitation, real estate excise tax, escrow
fees, title insurance premiums, and commercially reasonable brokerage
commissions paid to parties unaffiliated with Tobiases).

               (c) Lender shall release its security interest in some or all of
the Stock upon a sale of such Stock by the owner thereof that is approved in
writing by Lender, at a price approved in writing by Lender, provided that all
proceeds of such sale net of reasonable brokerage commissions, are delivered to
Lender.

Notwithstanding any provision hereof seemingly to the contrary, in no event
shall Lender release the last remaining Collateral without repayment in full of
the entire Indebtedness. Lender agrees to deliver such documentation as may be
reasonably necessary to accomplish the release or reconveyance of Collateral as
described above within ten (10) business days after any preconditions to such
release or reconveyance have been satisfied.

        Section 3.5 Subordination of Bell Street Deed of Trust. Lender shall
subordinate the lien of the Bell Street Deed of Trust to the lien of a new deed
of trust in favor of an institutional lender to secure a construction loan to 55
Bell Street, provided that (i) at the time Borrower requests such subordination
there is no default or Event of Default pending hereunder or under any of the
other Loan Documents, nor has any event occurred that with the passage of time,
the giving of notice, or the lapse of any period of grace ripen into a default;
(ii) Lender fully approves, in its reasonable discretion, the nature and scope
of the proposed construction and improvement work and its potential impact on
the value of the Bell Street Property, based on Lender's review of such plans
and specifications for the construction project, construction contractor and
architect's contracts, development agreements, appraisals, building and
development permits and licenses, income projections, credentials of the
proposed architect or contractor, and other information regarding the proposed
construction project that Lender may request of Borrower; (iii) the documents
and instruments evidencing and securing such construction loan are satisfactory
to Lender in its reasonable discretion; and (iv) Lender is provided by such
construction lender with a written commitment to provide Lender with written
notice of defaults by 55 Bell Street under such construction loan and an
opportunity to cure the same.

        Section 3.6 Application of Sales Proceeds. Lender may apply the amounts
paid to it by reason of sale of any of the Collateral as described herein first
against fees, costs, advances and late charges, if any, that are outstanding
pursuant to any of the Loan Documents; then against outstanding unpaid interest,
and then against the principal balance hereof.

        Section 3.7 Covenants of Additional Parties.

pay when due any principal of or interest on the Advances, or (ii) to pay when
due any other amount due under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan
Documents and, in the case of a failure described in the foregoing clause (ii),

               (b) Covenant Default. Failure by Borrower to perform, keep, or
observe any other material term, provision, condition, covenant, or agreement
contained in this Agreement, in any of the other Loan Documents, or in any other
present or future agreement between Borrower and Lender and as to any Default
under such other term, provision, condition, covenant or agreement that can be
cured and does not pose an imminent risk of loss to Lender, has failed to cure
such Default within ten (10) days after Borrower receives written notice thereof
from Lender or any officer, member, manager or partner of Borrower becomes aware
thereof; provided, however, that if the Default cannot by its nature be cured
within the ten (10) day period or cannot after diligent attempts by Borrower be
cured within such ten (10) day period, and such Default is likely to be cured
within a reasonable time, then Borrower shall have an additional reasonable
period (which shall not in any case exceed an additional thirty (30) days) to
attempt to cure such Default, and within such reasonable time period the failure
to have cured such Default shall not be deemed an Event of Default (provided
that no Advances will be required to be made during such cure period).

               (c) Material Adverse Change. If there occurs a material adverse
change in the financial condition of Borrower, or if there is a material
impairment of the prospect of repayment of any portion of the Indebtedness owing
by Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or a material
impairment of the value or priority of Lender's security interests in the
Collateral.

               (d) Insolvency. If (i) Borrower becomes insolvent, (ii) an
Insolvency Proceeding is commenced by Borrower, or (iii) an Insolvency

material misstatement exists now or hereafter in any representation or warranty
set forth herein, or in any of the other Loan Documents.

        Section 7.2 Remedies. At any time after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may, by notice to Borrower, (a)
declare the obligation of Lender to make Advances to be terminated, whereupon
the same shall forthwith terminate, and (b) declare (i) the Note and all
interest thereon and (ii) all other amounts payable under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents to be immediately due and payable, whereupon the Note, all
such interest, and all such other amounts shall become and be immediately due
and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind,
all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower; provided, however, that if
an Insolvency Proceeding by or against Borrower shall be commenced, (A) the
obligation of Lender to make Advances shall automatically be terminated and (B)
the Note, all interest thereon, and all other amounts payable under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall automatically become and be
immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any notice
of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower.

        Section 7.3 Cumulative Remedies. After the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may proceed to enforce the Loan
Documents by exercising such remedies as are available thereunder or in respect
thereof under applicable law, whether for specific performance of any covenant
or other agreement contained in the Loan Documents or in aid of the exercise of
any power granted in the Loan Documents. No remedy conferred in this Agreement
or the other Loan Documents is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, and
each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every
other remedy conferred herein or therein or now or hereafter existing at law, in
equity, by statute or otherwise.

        Section 7.4 Application of Payments. After the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall apply all funds received in
respect of amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in
such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion notwithstanding any
instruction from Borrower.

        Section 7.5 Good Faith Negotiation. If Borrower cannot repay principal
and accrued interest in full upon the maturity of the Note, Borrower and Lender
shall in good faith attempt to negotiate an extension of the term of the Note
upon commercially reasonable terms and conditions. If no agreement is reached
within two weeks of the maturity date of the Note, then the parties obligation
to continue to negotiate an extension shall terminate. Nothing in this section
shall require either Lender or Borrower to agree upon any such extension.

Default under this Agreement, or in the event that any dispute arises (whether

"Indemnified Parties" and, individually, an "Indemnified Party") free and
harmless from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, losses,
costs, liabilities, damages and expenses (regardless of whether such Indemnified
Party is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought),

result of, or arising out of, or relating to (i) the execution, delivery,

the termination of the commitment to lend under this Agreement and the repayment
of the Loan and all other amounts payable under the Loan Documents.

        Section 8.5 Binding Effect; Assignments and Participations. This
Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by Borrower
and Lender and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
Borrower and Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except that
Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest
herein without the prior written consent of Lender, which Lender may grant or
withhold in its sole and absolute discretion. Lender may assign or grant
participations to one or more banks or other entities in or to all or any part
of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

        Section 8.6 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in
any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto on separate
counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original
and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

        Section 8.7 Governing Law. All of the Loan Documents shall be governed
by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of Washington as
applicable to contracts entered into in the state of Washington between
residents of such state and which are to be wholly performed in such state.

                                       18
<PAGE>

               (a) Jurisdiction and Venue. Any legal action or proceeding
seeking to enforce this Agreement or any other Loan Document or to recover
damages for the breach thereof, or based upon or arising out of any transaction
provided for in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, whether sounding in
contract, tort or otherwise, shall, at the sole option of Lender, be brought in
or transferred to the Superior Court of Washington for King County or the United
States District Court for the Western District of Washington at Seattle. Each of
Borrower and Lender consents (for itself and for its successors, assigns,
participants and property) to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and
of the related appellate courts with respect to all such actions and proceedings
and waives any objection it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue
therein including but not limited to any objection based on the ground that
either such court is an inconvenient forum. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Lender may bring any such action or proceeding in any other court having
jurisdiction.

               (b) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF BORROWER AND LENDER (FOR ITSELF
AND ITS SUCCESSORS, ASSIGNS AND PARTICIPANTS) WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY
JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO
THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS PROVIDED FOR HEREIN
OR THEREIN, IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY
TO ANY OF THE FOREGOING AGAINST ANY OTHER SUCH PARTY, WHETHER SOUNDING IN
CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE. ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY
A COURT SITTING WITHOUT A JURY.

               (c) Application to Certain Actions. Without limiting the
foregoing, the provisions of the above Subsections (a) and (b) shall apply to
any action, counterclaim or other proceeding which seeks, in whole or in part,
to challenge the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents or any provision hereof or thereof. Such subsections shall apply to
all amendments, renewals, supplements and modifications of this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents.

        Section 8.9 No Fiduciary Duty. Borrower acknowledges that Lender has no
fiduciary relationship with, or fiduciary duty to, Borrower arising out of or in
connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the
relationship between Lender, on the one hand, and Borrower, on the other, in
connection herewith or therewith is solely that of creditor and debtor. None of
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents create a joint venture among the
parties.

        Section 8.10 Severability. Any provision of the Loan Documents that is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be ineffective to the
extent of such prohibition or unenforceability in such jurisdiction without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or
enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the extent
permitted by applicable law, the parties waive any provision of law which
renders any provision of any other Loan Documents prohibited or unenforceable in
any respect.

        Section 8.11 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan
Documents constitute the final and complete expression of the parties with
respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and replace and
supersede all prior discussions, negotiations and understandings with respect
thereto. Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof nor of the other Loan
Documents may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated except as provided
herein.

        Section 8.12 Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings of the
various provisions of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, do
not constitute a part hereof, and shall not affect the meaning or construction
of any provision hereof.

        Section 8.13 Gender and Number. Whenever appropriate to the meaning of
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, use of the singular shall be deemed
to refer to the plural, the use of the plural to the singular, and pronouns of
certain gender to either or both the other genders.
