Re:    Commitment Letter Relating to $55,000,000 Senior Secured Financing Facility (the "Financing Facility")
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Quotient Technology Inc. (the "Company" or "you"), has requested that Blue Torch Capital LP ("BT", "we" or "us"), in connection with the Transactions (as defined in Annex A), provide this commitment letter relating to the Financing Facility to be entered into among the Company and the Lenders referred to below for the purpose of effectuating the transactions described on Annex A hereto.
BT is pleased to confirm that it has completed its legal, business, financial and collateral diligence and obtained the internal credit approvals necessary to enable BT (collectively with one or more of its affiliates and funds managed, advised or sub-advised by it, the "Lenders") to commit to provide, and BT hereby commits to provide, the Financing Facility to the Company, on the terms and conditions set forth in this commitment letter and the Summary of Proposed Terms and Conditions for the Financing Facility attached hereto as Annex B (the "Term Sheet"). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Term Sheet or Annex A. BT's commitment is subject only to the conditions set forth in the section entitled "Conditions Precedent on the Closing Date" in the Term Sheet.
The Company acknowledges that the Term Sheet is intended as an outline only and does not purport to summarize all of the covenants, representations, warranties and other provisions which would be contained in definitive legal documentation for the Financing Facility (excluding the closing conditions for the borrowing on the Closing Date, which are inclusive and complete as set forth in the Term Sheet).
By its written acceptance of this commitment letter, the Company agrees to reimburse the Lenders on demand for all reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket costs, fees and expenses (the "Expenses") (including, without limitation, all fees and other client charges and expenses of counsel to the Lenders (but limited, in the case of fees and other client charges and expenses of counsel to the Lenders, to the fees and other client charges and expenses

of (a) one firm of lead counsel for the Lenders, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, one additional lead counsel for each affected party similarly situated), and (b) if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and one special counsel in each regulatory area of law, in each case, for the Lenders, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, one additional local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and one additional special counsel in each regulatory area of law for each affected party similarly situated)), appraisal, administration, consulting and audit fees, and printing, reproduction, document delivery, travel and other communication costs) incurred by the Lenders in connection with the Financing Facility, including, without limitation, the conduct of business, legal, financial and collateral due diligence, the preparation, execution and delivery of this commitment letter, the Fee Letter (as defined below) and the preparation, execution and delivery of definitive legal documentation for, and the satisfaction of all conditions precedent to, the Financing Facility, regardless of whether any definitive legal documentation is executed or the Financing Facility is provided. You agree that, once paid, none of the Expenses shall be refundable under any circumstances, regardless of whether the proposed Financing Facility or any portion thereof is consummated, and shall not be creditable against any other amount payable by you to the Lenders in connection with the proposed Financing Facility or otherwise.
BT acknowledges its receipt of the initial expense deposit of $200,000 paid to BT prior to the date hereof (the "Initial Expense Deposit" and together with any additional expense deposits, the "Deposit"). If Expenses exceed the amount of the Initial Expense Deposit, BT reserves the right to require an increase in the amount of the Initial Expense Deposit to cover the Expenses. Any unused portion of the Deposit will be returned to you on the Closing Date or any earlier date of the termination or expiration of this commitment letter. The Deposit will not be segregated and may be commingled with other funds and you will not be entitled to receive interest on the Deposit.
By its written acceptance of this commitment letter, regardless of whether any definitive legal documentation is executed or the Financing Facility is provided, the Company hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Lenders and their respective partners, shareholders, trustees, controlling persons, managers, managing directors, principals, affiliates, members, directors, officers, employees, advisors, attorneys, consultants, agents and other representatives (each, an "Indemnified Person") from and against any and all disputes, losses, claims, damages, investigations, litigation, proceedings or liabilities (or actions or other proceedings commenced or threatened in respect thereof) (collectively and individually, "Claims or Proceedings") that arise out of or in connection with this commitment letter, the Fee Letter, the Financing Facility or any of the Transactions (or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Financing Facility) and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with any such Claim or Proceeding (including all fees and other client charges and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Persons (but limited, in the case of fees and other client charges and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Persons, to the fees and other client charges and expenses of (a) one firm of lead counsel for the Indemnified Persons, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, one additional lead counsel for each affected party similarly

situated), and (b) if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and one special counsel in each regulatory area of law, in each case, for the Indemnified Persons, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, one additional local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and one additional special counsel in each regulatory area of law for each affected party similarly situated)) incurred in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending against, or participating in, or providing evidence in preparing to serve or serving as a witness with respect to, any such Claims or Proceedings; provided that any such obligation to indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse an Indemnified Person shall not be applicable to the extent determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from (a) the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person or any other Indemnified Person, or a material breach of any obligations of such Indemnified Person under this Commitment Letter or the Fee Letter, or (b) a dispute solely among Indemnified Persons other than (i) any claim against any Indemnified Person in its capacity or fulfilling its role as an agent, arranger, servicer or any other similar role under the Financing Facility or (ii) any claim arising out of any act or omission on the part of the Company or any of its affiliates. In the case of any Claims or Proceedings to which the indemnity in this paragraph applies, such indemnity and reimbursement obligations shall be effective whether or not such Claim or Proceeding is brought by you, your equity holders or creditors, your affiliates or an Indemnified Person, whether or not an Indemnified Person is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any aspect of this commitment letter, the Fee Letter, the Financing Facility or any of the Transactions is consummated. You shall not, without the prior written consent of any Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Claim or Proceeding in respect of which such Indemnified Person is, or could reasonably foreseeably be, a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement (a) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person in form and substance satisfactory to such Indemnified Person from all liability or claims that are the subject matter of such Claim or Proceeding and (b) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability, wrongdoing or a failure to act by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person. If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to the Indemnified Persons or is insufficient to hold the Indemnified Persons harmless, then the Company shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Persons as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative economic interests of the Company on the one hand and the Indemnified Persons on the other hand in the matters contemplated by this commitment letter and the Fee Letter as well as the relative fault of the Company and the Indemnified Persons with respect to such loss, claim, damage or liability and any other relevant equitable considerations.
No Indemnified Person shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) to you or any of your affiliates, equity holders or creditors or any other person arising out of, related to or in connection with any aspect of this commitment letter, the Fee Letter, the Financing Facility or any of the Transactions, except, solely to you, to the extent of direct (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive (including, without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings)) damages determined in a final

Page 4
non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct. You shall not have any liability to any Indemnified Person except to the extent of direct (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive (including, without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings)) damages; provided that nothing in this paragraph shall limit your indemnity and reimbursement obligations set forth in the previous paragraph to the extent such special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages are included in any claim by a third party, unaffiliated with any of us.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this commitment letter, no Indemnified Person shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unauthorized persons of any information made available to any Lender or the Agent by you or any of your affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems that is intercepted by such persons except to the extent such damages are determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have directly resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person.
The Company represents and warrants that (a) all written information and other written materials concerning the Company and/or its subsidiaries, other than Projections (as defined below), other forward-looking information and information of a general economic or industry specific nature, which has been, or is hereafter, prepared by, or on behalf of, the Company or any of its affiliates and delivered to the Lenders in connection with any aspect of the transactions contemplated hereby (the "Information"), is, or when delivered will be, when considered as a whole together with the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, complete and correct in all material respects and does not, or will not when delivered and when taken as a whole, contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not misleading in any material respect in light of the circumstances under which such statements have been made (after giving effect to all supplements and updates thereto from time to time) and (b) to the extent that any such Information contains financial projections concerning the Company and its Subsidiaries that have been or are hereafter made available to the Lender (the “Projections”), have been or will be prepared in good faith on the basis of (i) reasonable assumptions; it being understood , methods and tests stated therein which are believed by the Company and its affiliates to be reasonable at the time prepared and at the time the projections are furnished and (ii) information believed by the Company and its affiliates to have been accurate based upon the information available to them at the time such projections were furnished to the Lenders (it being understood that the Projections are as to future events and are not to be viewed as facts, the Projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Company's control, and no assurance can be given that any particular Projections will be realized and that the actual results during the period or periods covered by any such Projections may differ significantly from the projected results and such differences may be material). Subject to the confidentiality requirements below, the Company agrees that, if at any time prior to the Closing Date, it becomes aware that any of the representations and warranties in this paragraph would be incorrect if the Information were being furnished, and such representations

were being made, at such time, then it shall promptly update the Information as necessary to make the foregoing representations and warranties in this paragraph to be complete and correct in all material respects on the Closing Date. In issuing the commitment hereunder we are using and relying on the Information without independent verification thereof.
BT reserves the right to syndicate a portion of BT's commitments with respect to the Financing Facility to a group of banks, financial institutions and other lenders identified by BT in consultation with and acceptable to the Company (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and shall be deemed accepted if the Company does not respond within ten (10) business days of the receipt thereof of such request). Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise agreed by you in writing in your sole discretion, (i) BT shall not be relieved, released or novated from its obligations hereunder in connection with or as a result of any syndication, assignment or participation of the Financing Facility, including its commitments in respect thereof, until after the Closing Date and the initial funding of the Financing Facility has occurred, (ii) no assignment or novation by BT shall become effective as between you and BT with respect to all or any portion of BT’s commitments in respect of the Financing Facility until the funding of the Financing Facility in full on the Closing Date and (iii) BT shall retain exclusive control over all rights and obligations with respect to its commitments in respect of the Financing Facility, including all rights with respect to consents, modifications, supplements, waivers and amendments, until the Closing Date has occurred.

Such assistance from the Company shall include providing to BT promptly following request all information reasonably requested, including, without limitation, the projections and financial and other information, reports, memoranda and evaluations prepared by, or on behalf or at the direction of, the Company or its advisors.

By executing this commitment letter, the Company, on behalf of itself and its affiliates and directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives of each of the foregoing (collectively, the "Company Representatives"), agrees that from the date hereof until December 5, 2022 (such period, the "Exclusivity Period''), the Company and the Company Representatives shall not (a) enter into, arrange, place, solicit, entertain or propose any financing provider or other credit facilities or (b) issue any competing debt, in each case, to consummate the Transactions or any similar transaction; provided that the foregoing shall not prevent or be interpreted to prevent discussion and/or negotiation with any commercial bank with respect to or in connection with entering into a revolving credit facility.
