Mandatory Conversion Provided an Event of Default or an event which with the passage of time or giving of notice could become an Event of Default has not occurred, then, until the Maturity Date, the Borrower will have the option by written notice to the Holder (“Notice of Mandatory Conversion”) of compelling the Holder to convert all or a portion of the outstanding and unpaid principal of the Note and accrued interest, thereon, into Common Stock at fifty percent (50%) of the Conversion Price, as adjusted, then in affect (“Mandatory Conversion”). The Notice of Mandatory Conversion, which notice must be given on the first day following twenty (20) consecutive trading days (“Lookback Period”) during which the closing price for the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg, LP for the Principal Market shall be greater than Five Dollars ($5.00) each such trading day and during which twenty (20) trading days, the daily trading volume as reported by Bloomberg L.P. for the Principal Market is greater than 100,000 shares. The date the Notice of Mandatory Conversion is given is the “Mandatory Conversion Date.” The Notice of Mandatory Conversion shall specify the aggregate principal amount of the Note which is subject to Mandatory Conversion. Mandatory Conversion Notices must be given proportionately to all Holders of Notes. The Borrower shall reduce the amount of Note principal subject to a Notice of Mandatory Conversion by the amount of Note Principal and interest for which the Holder had delivered a Notice of Conversion to the Borrower during the twenty (20) trading days preceding the Mandatory Conversion Date. Each Mandatory Conversion Date shall be a deemed Conversion Date and the Borrower will be required to deliver the Common Stock issuable pursuant to a Mandatory Conversion Notice in the same manner and time period as described in the Subscription Agreement. A Notice of Mandatory Conversion may be given only in connection with an amount of Common Stock which would not cause a Holder to exceed the 4.99% (or if increased, 9.99%) beneficial ownership limitation set forth in Section 2.3 of this Note.
Settlement Upon Conversion (i) Pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Section 9, upon a conversion the Company shall have the right to deliver the Conversion Value, in lieu of shares of Common Stock, in cash or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, provided that the Company may only elect to deliver cash if its credit facilities in existence at that time permit such payment and assets are legally available to pay such amounts. Unless the Company has elected to call a Forced Conversion, it shall not be required to notify Holders of its method for settling its conversion obligation relating to the Conversion Value until the Series A Preferred Stock is submitted for conversion.
(ii) If the Company receives a conversion notice from a Holder of Series A Preferred Stock, the following procedures shall apply:
(a) During the Settlement Notice Period, the Company shall notify any Holders of Series A Preferred Stock exercising a conversion right, if the Company elects to settle any portion of its conversion obligation in whole or in part in cash. If the Company elects to settle the Conversion Value in a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, it shall specify the percentage of the Conversion Value relating to the Series A Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion that will be paid in cash. Any portion of the Conversion Value which the Company does not elect to settle in cash shall be settled in shares of Common Stock (except that the Company shall pay cash in lieu of issuing any fractional shares). The Company shall treat all Holders converting on the same Trading Day in the same manner. The Company shall not, however, have any obligation to settle conversion obligations arising on different Trading Days in the same manner. For example, the Company may choose on one Trading Day to settle in shares of Common Stock only and choose on another Trading Day to settle in cash or a combination of shares of Common Stock and cash.
(b) If the Company timely elects to pay cash for any portion of the Conversion Value, Holders may retract the conversion notice at any time during the Conversion Retraction Period; provided that no such retraction may be made (and a conversion notice shall be irrevocable) if the Company does not elect to deliver cash in lieu of shares of Common Stock (other than cash in lieu of fractional shares).
(c) Settlement amounts shall be computed as follows:
1) If the Company elects to satisfy a conversion solely in shares of Common Stock (other than with respect to fractional shares), it shall deliver to the Holder, for each share of Series A Preferred Stock, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the applicable Conversion Rate.
2) If the Company elects to satisfy a conversion solely in cash, it shall deliver to the Holder, for each share of Series A Preferred Stock, cash in an amount equal to the Conversion Value.
3) If the Company elects to satisfy the conversion obligation in a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, it shall deliver to the Holder, for each share of Series A Preferred Stock:
(i) a cash amount (the “Cash Amount”) (excluding any cash paid for fractional shares) equal to the product of (a) the Conversion Value and (b) the percentage of the conversion obligation to be satisfied in cash; and
(ii) a number of shares of common stock equal to the difference between: (a) the applicable Conversion Rate; minus (b) the number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient of (x) the Cash Amount divided by (y) the arithmetic average of the Volume-Weighted Average Price of the Common Stock on each Trading Day during the Cash Settlement Averaging Period.
Automatic Conversion Subject to Section 5 below and, at the Company’s election and request, Holder’s reaffirmation of Holder’s representations and warranties under Section 3 of the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement, the principal amount of this Note (and all interest accrued on this Note at the option of the Payor) shall be converted into the number of shares of common stock as follows:
(a) In the event of a next equity financing by the Company in one transaction or series of related transactions which raises an aggregate amount of at least One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000) (the “Next Equity Financing”), the principal amount on this Note shall automatically be converted (regardless of whether or not the Note is surrendered to Payor) into the equity securities issued in the Payor’s Next Equity Financing (the “Next Equity Financing Stock”). Any accrued interest outstanding at the time of the conversion shall be paid in cash by the Company. This Note shall convert into the number of shares at the time of the “Next Equity Financing” equals to ___,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.60 per share (the “Exercise Price”) This Note shall be deemed automatically cancelled immediately upon such conversion. As a condition precedent to the issuance of the Next Equity Financing Stock to Holder upon such conversion, Holder shall execute and deliver such agreements, instruments and other documents as are executed and delivered by the other investors in connection with their purchase of the Next Equity Financing Stock.
(b) In the event of the “Company’s Sale”, defined below, at the option of Payor, the principal hereunder and, at the option of the Payor, shall automatically be converted (regardless of whether or not the Note is surrendered to Payor) into the number of shares (the “Company’s Sale Stock”) equals to ____,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.60 per share (the “Exercise Price”). This Note shall be deemed automatically cancelled immediately upon such conversion.
Conversion Privilege and Conversion Price Securities of any series which are convertible shall be convertible in accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article Seventeen. Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Article Seventeen, at any time during the period specified in the Securities, at the option of the Holder thereof, any Security or any portion of the principal amount thereof which is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 may be converted at the principal amount thereof, or of such portion thereof, into fully paid and nonassessable shares (calculated as to each conversion to the nearest 1/100 of a share) of Common Stock of the Company, at the Conversion Price, determined as hereinafter provided, in effect at the time of conversion. In case a Security or portion thereof is called for redemption, such conversion right in respect of the Security or portion so called shall expire at the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date, unless the Company defaults in making the payment due upon redemption, in which case such conversion right shall terminate on the date such default is cured. The price at which shares of Common Stock shall be delivered upon conversion (herein called the "Conversion Price") of Securities of any series shall be specified in such Securities. The Conversion Price shall be adjusted in certain instances as provided in Section 1704. In case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, declare or make a distribution on its Common Stock referred to in paragraph (4) of Section 1704, the Holder of each Security, upon the conversion thereof pursuant to this Article Seventeen subsequent to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution and prior to the effectiveness of the Conversion Price adjustment in respect of such distribution pursuant to paragraph (4) of Section 1704, shall be entitled to receive for each share of Common Stock into which such Security is converted, the portion of the evidence of indebtedness, shares of Capital Stock or assets so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, at the election of the Company (whose election shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution filed with the Trustee) with respect to all Holders so converting, the Company may, in lieu of distributing to such Holder any portion of such distribution not consisting of cash or securities of the Company, pay such Holder an amount in cash equal to the fair market value thereof (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a Board Resolution filed with the Trustee). If any conversion of a Security entitled to the benefits described in the immediately preceding sentence occurs prior to the payment date for a distribution to holders of Common Stock which the Holder of the Security so converted is entitled to receive in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the Company may elect (such election to be evidenced by a Board Resolution filed with the Trustee) to distribute to such Holder a due bill xxx the evidences of indebtedness, shares of Capital Stock or assets to which such Holder is so entitled, provided that such due bill (x) meets any applicable requirements of the principal national securities exchange or other market on which the Common Stock is then traded, and (ii) requires payment or delivery of such evidences of indebtedness or assets no later than the date of payment or delivery thereof to holders of Common Stock receiving such distribution.

Each such notice of a Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion, (ii) the Advances to be Converted, and (iii) if such Conversion is into Eurodollar Rate Advances, the duration of the initial Interest Period for each such Advance.
