2.1 Loan Terms. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Xxxxxx agrees to make the Loan available to Borrower. The Loan shall be repaid or converted as set forth below on or before the date that is one year from the Effective Date (the “Maturity Date”).

Each Loan Advance shall be made on written notice by Borrower to Lender by email or facsimile transmission.

On the Maturity Date, all accrued but unpaid interest and outstanding principal may be converted by Lender in accordance with Section 2.5 below. The Borrower shall pay interest on any amount of principal not paid when due from the date on which payment was due to the date of payment at a rate equal to five percent (5%) per annum above the Interest Rate (the “Default Interest Rate”).
2.3 Prepayment. At Borrower’s option, prepayments of outstanding principal may be made without penalty at any time prior to the Maturity Date; provided, that any prepayment shall be accompanied by accrued but unpaid interest on the amount of such principal prepayment.
2.4 Term of Agreement. This Agreement shall remain in force and effect until the Maturity Date, or any extension thereof.
2.5 Conversion of the Loan. Subject to Section 1.08 of the Note, on the Maturity Date, the then outstanding principal balance and accrued but unpaid interest under the Note may be converted, at the option of Lender, into shares of Borrower’s common stock (“Conversion Shares”) at the conversion rate of $0.08 per share, as may be adjusted for any share splits, share dividends, reclassifications and other similar events which have occurred before such conversion (the “Conversion Price”). Any remaining amount of the outstanding principal balance and accrued but unpaid interest under the Note not so converted, if any, shall be settled in cash pursuant to Section 1.03 of the Note.
2.6 Use of Proceeds. Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Loan for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

2.9 Limitation on Interest Charges. Lender and Borrower intend to comply strictly with applicable law regulating the maximum allowable rate or amount of interest that Lender may charge and collect on the Loans to Borrower pursuant to this Agreement. Accordingly, and notwithstanding anything in any Note or in this Agreement to the contrary, the maximum, aggregate amount of interest and other charges constituting interest under applicable law that are payable, chargeable, or receivable under any Note and this Agreement shall not exceed the maximum amount of interest now allowed by applicable law or any greater amount of interest allowed because of a future amendment to existing law. Borrower is not liable for any interest in excess of the maximum lawful amount, and any excess interest charged or collected by Lender will constitute an inadvertent mistake and, if charged but not paid, will be cancelled automatically, or, if paid, will be either refunded to Borrower or credited against the outstanding principal balance of the applicable Note, at the election of Lender.
2.10 Registration Rights. Xxxxxx understands that neither the Note, nor the Conversion Shares that may be acquired upon conversion of the Note (the Conversion Shares together with the Note, the “Securities”), have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities laws, and Borrower has no obligation to register the Securities.
2.11 Security. The obligations of the Borrower to the Lender under this Agreement and the Note are unsecured.

5.6 Knowledge and Experience. Xxxxxx has such knowledge and experience in financial, tax, and business matters, and, in particular, investments in securities, so as to enable it to utilize the information made available to it in connection with the Securities to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities and the Borrower and to make an informed investment decision with respect thereto.
5.7 Liquidity. Lender has adequate means of providing for Lender’s current financial needs and foreseeable contingencies and has no need for liquidity of its investment in the Securities for an indefinite period of time, and after acquiring the Securities, Lender will be able to provide for any foreseeable current needs and possible personal contingencies.
