Exhibit 10.6

FREEDOM TRAIL CORP.

INITIAL SECURITIES SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

     THIS INITIAL SECURITIES SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of the 14th day of March, 2008, by and between Freedom Trail Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Liberty Lane Funding LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Purchaser”).

     WHEREAS, the Company desires to issue and sell, and Purchaser desires to purchase and acquire, Securities (as defined herein) on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth;

     NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the promises and mutual covenants set forth herein, it is agreed between the parties as follows:

     1. Purchase of Securities. Purchaser hereby subscribes for and purchases from the Company, and the Company hereby issues and sells to Purchaser, (i) 3,264,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and (ii) 8,703,000 warrants (the “Warrants” and, together with the Shares, the “Securities”), for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000. Each whole Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $7.50 per share for 4,351,500 of the Warrants and an exercise price of $10.00 per share for 4,351,500 of the Warrants, in accordance with the terms of the Initial Warrant substantially as set forth in the Form of Warrant Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Warrant Agreement”) to be entered into by and between the Company and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, and shall be subject to the terms of the Warrant Agreement upon execution thereof.

     2. Payment of Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Securities shall be tendered in full on the date hereof in immediately available funds by delivery of a cashiers check or by wire transfer to an account designated by the Company.

     3. Forfeiture of Securities. If the underwriter (the “Underwriter”) in the Company’s initial public offering (the “IPO”) does not exercise in full its option (the “Option”) to purchase additional units to be granted by the Company to the Underwriter pursuant to an underwriting agreement to be executed by and between the Underwriter and the Company, then Purchaser shall forfeit (i) a number of Shares equal to 426,000 multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the Option remains unexercised as of the expiration date thereof, and the denominator of which is 5,250,000, and (ii) a number of Warrants equal to 1,135,000 multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the Option remains unexercised as of the expiration date thereof, and the denominator of which is 5,250,000, divided as equally as practicable among Warrants having an exercise price of $7.50 per share and Warrants having an exercise price of $10.00 per share.

     4. Limitations on Transfer. The Securities (and any underlying securities) will be subject to the applicable restrictions on transfer described in the registration statement for the IPO.

     5. Restrictive Legends. All certificates representing the Shares and the Warrants (and any underlying securities) shall have endorsed thereon legends in substantially the following forms (in addition to any other legend which may be required by other agreements between the parties hereto):

          (a) “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN

EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AS TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SAID ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.”

          (b) “SOME OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE SUBJECT TO FORFEITURE PURSUANT TO SECTION 3 OF THAT CERTAIN INITIAL SECURITIES SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT DATED AS OF MARCH 14, 2008, COPIES OF WHICH ARE AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION AT THE OFFICES OF THE COMPANY.”

          (c) Any legend required pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agreement.

          (d) Any legend required by appropriate blue sky officials.

     6. Investment Representations. In connection with the purchase of the Securities, Purchaser represents to the Company the following:

          (a) Purchaser has been furnished with all materials relating to the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and materials related to the offer and sale of the Securities that have been requested by Purchaser and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Securities. Purchaser has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the executive officers and directors of the Company. Purchaser understands that its investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk. Purchaser has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as Purchaser has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to Purchaser’s acquisition of the Securities. Purchaser has such knowledge and expertise in financial and business matters, knows of the high degree of risk associated with investments generally and particularly investments in the securities of companies in the development stage such as the Company, is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities, and is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities in the amount contemplated hereunder. Purchaser has adequate means of providing for its current financial needs and contingencies and will have no current or anticipated future needs for liquidity which would be jeopardized by the investment in the Securities. Purchaser can afford a complete loss of its investment in the Securities. Purchaser is purchasing the Securities for investment for Purchaser’s own account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). Purchaser understands that the Company is a blank check development stage company recently formed for the purpose of consummating an initial business combination (a “Business Combination”) and understands that there is no assurance as to the future performance of the Company and that the Company may never effectuate a Business Combination.

          (b) Purchaser understands that the Securities (and the underlying securities) have not been registered under the Act or any state securities law by reason of a specific exemption therefrom, and that the Company is relying on the truth and accuracy of, and Purchaser’s compliance with, the representations and warranties and agreements of Purchaser set forth herein to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of Purchaser to acquire such Securities, including, but not limited to, the bona fide nature of Purchaser’s investment intent as expressed herein.

          (c) Purchaser further acknowledges and understands that the Securities (and the underlying securities) must be held indefinitely unless the Securities (and the underlying securities) are subsequently registered under the Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Purchaser understands that the certificates evidencing the Securities (and the underlying securities) will be imprinted with a legend which prohibits the transfer of the Securities (and the underlying securities) unless the Securities (and the underlying securities) are registered or such registration is not required in the opinion of counsel for the Company.

          (d) Purchaser is familiar with the provisions of Rule 144 under the Act, as in effect from time to time (“Rule 144”), which, in substance, permit limited public resale of “restricted securities” acquired, directly or indirectly, from the issuer thereof (or from an affiliate of such issuer), in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Unless the Company registers the Securities (and the underlying securities) under the Act, the Securities (and the underlying securities) may be resold by Purchaser only in certain limited circumstances subject to the provisions of Rule 144, which may require, among other things: (i) the availability of certain public information about the Company and (ii) the resale occurring following the required holding period under Rule 144 after Purchaser has purchased, and made full payment of (within the meaning of Rule 144), the securities to be sold.

          (e) Purchaser further understands that at the time Purchaser wishes to sell the Securities there may be no public market upon which to make such a sale, and that, even if such a public market then exists, the Company may not be satisfying the current public information requirements of Rule 144, and that, in such event, Purchaser may be precluded from selling the Securities (and the underlying securities) under Rule 144 even if the minimum holding period requirement had been satisfied. Notwithstanding Sections 6(d) and (e) hereof, Purchaser understands that the Securities (and the underlying securities) may not be resold under Rule 144 in certain circumstances until one year after the consummation of a Business Combination.

          (f) Purchaser represents that Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission under the Act.

          (g) Purchaser has all necessary limited liability company power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. All limited liability company action necessary to be taken by Purchaser to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and all other agreements and instruments delivered by Purchaser in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby has been duly and validly taken, and this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Purchaser. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, this Agreement constitutes the valid, binding and enforceable obligation of Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer or similar laws of general application now or hereafter in effect affecting the rights and remedies of creditors and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity); and (ii) the applicability of the federal and state securities laws and public policy as to the enforceability of the indemnification provisions of this Agreement. The purchase by Purchaser of the Securities does not conflict with the organizational documents of Purchaser or with any material contract by which Purchaser or its property is bound, or any laws or regulations or decree, ruling or judgment of any court applicable to Purchaser or its property. The principal place of business of Purchaser is as set forth on the signature page hereto.

          (h) Purchaser did not decide to enter into this Agreement as a result of any general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502(c) of the Act.

          (i) Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Securities, nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Securities.

     7. Company Representations and Warranties. The Company hereby represents and warrants to Purchaser that the Company has all necessary corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. All corporate action necessary to be taken by the

Company to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and all other agreements and instruments delivered by the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby has been duly and validly taken and this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, this Agreement constitutes the valid, binding and enforceable obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer or similar laws of general application now or hereafter in effect affecting the rights and remedies of creditors and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity); and (ii) the applicability of the federal and state securities laws and public policy as to the enforceability of the indemnification provisions of this Agreement. The sale by the Company of the Securities does not conflict with the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the Company or any material contract by which the Company or its property is bound, or any federal or state laws or regulations or decree, ruling or judgment of any United States or state court applicable to the Company or its property.

     8. Indemnification. Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Company’s officers, directors, stockholders, employees, agents, and attorneys against any and all losses, claims, demands, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by each such person in connection with defending or investigating any such claims or liabilities, whether or not resulting in any liability to such person or whether incurred by the indemnified party in any action or proceeding between the indemnitor and indemnified party or between the indemnified party and any third party) to which any such indemnified party may become subject, insofar as such losses, claims, demands, liabilities and expenses (a) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact made by Purchaser and contained herein, or (b) arise out of or are based upon any breach by Purchaser of any representation, warranty or agreement made by Purchaser contained herein.

     9. Miscellaneous.

          (a) Notices. All notices required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given: (i) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (ii) when sent by confirmed facsimile if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, and if not during normal business hours of the recipient, then on the next business day, (iii) five calendar days after having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (iv) one business day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, with written verification of receipt. All communications shall be sent to the other party hereto at such party’s address hereinafter set forth on the signature page hereof, or at such other address as such party may designate by ten days advance written notice to the other party hereto.

          (b) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company and, subject to the restrictions on transfer herein set forth, shall be binding upon Purchaser and Purchaser’s successors and assigns.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.

          (f) Independent Counsel. Purchaser acknowledges that this Agreement has been prepared on behalf of the Company by Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP, counsel to the Company and that Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP does not represent, and is not acting on behalf of, Purchaser.

          (h) Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, the parties agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement, (ii) the balance of the Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of the Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.

          (i) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one instrument.
