The Exchange (a) The Company agrees, promptly upon the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2 below, to repay the Subordinated Notes by delivering to the Note Holders the following (the “Exchange Consideration”):
(i) a number of shares of Preferred Stock having an aggregate liquidation preference equal to $12.8 million (the “Exchange Preferred Shares”); and

(b) The Note Holders agree to accept the Exchange Consideration as full repayment of all amounts outstanding on the Subordinated Notes. Upon the payment of the Exchange Consideration, the Note Holders will xxxx the Subordinated Notes “Paid in Full” and surrender the Subordinated Notes to the Company. Furthermore, upon the payment of the Exchange Consideration, any security interest held by the Note Holders to secure the repayment of the Subordinated Notes will automatically be released, and the Note Holders hereby irrevocably designate the Company as their attorney-in-fact for the purpose of executing and filing any UCC-3 termination statements in connection with such release.
(c) Nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to modify or amend the terms of the Subordinated Notes, and, until the Subordinated Notes have been repaid in full in accordance with Section 1(a), the Company will, subject to any applicable subordination provisions, continue to comply with its obligations under the Subordinated Notes in accordance with its terms. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, subject to any applicable subordination provisions, the Company will continue to pay interest on the Subordinated Notes and will make any mandatory prepayments required to be made under the terms of the Subordinated Notes.
(d) The Exchange Consideration to be delivered to the Note Holders will be allocated between the Note Holders in proportion to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Subordinated Notes held by such Note Holders.

(g) The Exchange Preferred Shares will have rights and preferences substantially similar to the rights and preferences set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto. The Company may, but is not required to, issue additional shares of preferred stock of the same preferred stock series as the Exchange Preferred Shares in one or more public offerings or private placements. In connection with the first such offering for cash of the same series of preferred stock as the Exchange Preferred Shares to occur after the date hereof, the Company will modify (without being required to obtain the consent of the holders of the Exchange Preferred Shares) the provisions of the Exchange Preferred Shares to be appropriate for that type of offering, and the holders of the Exchange Preferred Shares will be entitled to comparable and proportionate rights, together with the subsequent purchasers of such new shares in such offering. There is no assurance that any additional shares of preferred stock (or any Public Preferred Stock, as defined below) will be issued or that a trading market will develop for such shares. Furthermore, there is no assurance that shares of preferred stock issued by the Company in a different series of preferred stock will have rights and preferences similar to the Exchange Preferred Shares. Depending upon market conditions and other factors at the time that any shares of Public Preferred Stock are issued, the rights, designations and preferences of shares of Public Preferred Stock may differ from the rights, designations and preferences of the Exchange Preferred Shares.

The Non-Exchanging Party shall not, by reason of the Exchange, (i) have its rights under this Agreement, including, without limitation, any representations, warranties and covenants made by the Exchanging Party in this Agreement (including but not limited to any warranties of title, which, if Seller is the Exchanging Party, shall remain warranties of Seller), or in any of the closing documents (including but not limited to any warranties of title, which, if Seller is the Exchanging Party, shall remain warranties of Seller) contemplated hereby, adversely affected or diminished in any manner, or (ii) be responsible for compliance with or deemed to have warranted to the Exchanging Party that the Exchange complies with Section 1031 of the Code.
