6. Rights Upon Issuance of Cash Dividends and Other Corporate Events.

(a) Cash Dividend.

(i) If the Company pays any Excess Cash Dividend in any financial year, it shall simultaneously pay to the Holder an amount equal to the Excess Dividend Amount multiplied by the number of Shares into which this Note is convertible at the Conversion Price then in effect on the relevant record date for the payment of such Excess Cash Dividend.

(iii) “Per Share Interest Amount” means an amount equal to (A) the Interest that has accrued and shall accrue pursuant to Section 3 on the Note in such financial year divided by (B) the number of Shares into which the Note is convertible at the Conversion Price then in effect on the relevant record date.

(b) Corporate Events. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of any Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of Shares are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange for Shares (a “Corporate Event”), the Company shall make appropriate provision to ensure that the Holder shall thereafter have the right to receive upon the conversion of this Note, in lieu of Shares or other assets otherwise receivable upon such conversion, such securities or other assets to which the Holder would have been entitled had such Shares been held by the Holder immediately prior to the consummation of such Corporate Event (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of this Note).

7. Rights Upon Issuance of Other Securities.

(a) Adjustments of Conversion Price upon Stock Splits and Combinations.

(i) If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date, effect a stock split of the outstanding Shares, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately decreased. For example, a 2:1 stock split shall result in a decrease in the Conversion Price by one half, taking into account all prior adjustments made thereto under this Section 7. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date, combine the outstanding Shares, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately increased. For example, a 1:2 combination shall result in an increase in the Conversion Price by a multiple of 2, taking into account all prior adjustments made thereto under this Section 7.

(ii) Any adjustments under this Section 7(a) shall be effective at the close of business on the date the stock split or combination becomes effective.

(b) Adjustments for Dividends and Distributions of Shares. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date make or issue or set a record date for the determination of holders of Shares entitled to receive a dividend or distribution payable in Shares, then the Conversion Price shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction:

(i) the numerator of which shall be the total number of Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date; and

(ii) the denominator of which shall be the total number of Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, as the case may be, plus the number of Shares issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution.

(c) Adjustment for Certain Fundamental Transactions. Without prejudice to the generality of Section 6(b), if at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date there shall occur any Fundamental Transaction (any such event, a “Reorganization Adjustment Event”) involving the Company in which Shares are converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or other property (other than a transaction covered by Section 7(a) or Section 7(b)), then, following any such Reorganization Adjustment Event, this Note shall thereafter be convertible (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of this Note), in lieu of the Shares, into the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property which a holder of the number of Shares of the Company issuable upon conversion of this Note immediately prior to such Reorganization Adjustment Event would have been entitled to receive pursuant to such transaction. In each such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions in Section 7 with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Holder, to the end that the provisions set forth in Section 7 (including provisions with respect to changes in and other adjustments to the Conversion Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably practicable, in relation to any securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of this Note.

(d) Other Events. In the event that the Company (or any Subsidiary) takes any action to which the provisions hereof are not strictly applicable or if any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of Section 7 but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features), which has the direct or indirect effect of adversely affecting the Holder’s proportionate interest in the equity of the Company, then, to the extent that the Holder’s proportionate interest in the equity of the Company is so adversely affected thereby an appropriate adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be made so as to protect the rights of the Holder under this Note.

(e) Successive Adjustments; Multiple Adjustments. After an adjustment is made to the Conversion Price under Section 7, any subsequent event requiring an adjustment under Section 7 shall cause an adjustment to such Conversion Price, as so adjusted.

(f) Certificates as to Adjustments. Upon occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price, or the number of Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and deliver to the Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment and readjustment, showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall, upon written request of the Holder at any time, deliver to the Holder a like certificate setting forth such adjustments and readjustments, the Conversion Price in effect at the time, and the number of Shares and the amount, if any, of other securities or property which at the time would be received upon the conversion of this Note.

8. Avoidance of Obligations. Save as required by law, the Company shall not, by amendment of its Charter Documents or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action (including entering into any agreement which would limit or restrict the Company’s ability to perform under this Note), avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Note, and shall at all times in good faith carry out all of the provisions of the Transaction Documents and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder under this Note.

9. Reservation of Authorized Shares.

(a) Reservation. The Company shall initially reserve out of its authorized and unissued share capital a number of Shares for each of the Notes equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the number of Shares as shall be necessary to effect the conversion of each such Note as of the Issuance Date. So long as any of the Notes are outstanding, the Company shall take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued share capital, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Notes, one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the number of Shares as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the conversion of all of the Notes then outstanding, free from any Encumbrance; provided that at no time shall the number of Shares so reserved be less than the number of shares required to be reserved by the previous sentence (without regard to any limitations on conversions) (the “Required Reserve Amount”). In the event that the Holder shall sell or otherwise transfer this Note, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of the Required Reserve Amount. The initial number of Shares reserved for conversions of the Notes and each increase in the number of Shares so reserved shall be allocated pro rata among the holders of the Notes based on the Principal held by each holder (the “Authorized Share Allocation”). In the event that a holder shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such holder’s Notes, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such holder’s Authorized Share Allocation. Any Shares reserved and allocated to any Person which ceases to hold any Notes shall be allocated to the remaining holders of the Notes, pro rata based on the principal amount of the Notes then held by such holders.

(b) Insufficient Authorized Shares. If at any time when any Note remains outstanding, the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved Shares to satisfy its obligation to reserve for issuance upon conversion of the Notes at least a number of Shares equal to the Required Reserve Amount (an “Authorized Share Failure”), then the Company shall immediately take all action necessary to increase the Company’s authorized share capital to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for the Notes then outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall hold a meeting of its shareholders for the approval of an increase in the share capital. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each shareholder with a proxy statement and shall use its best efforts to solicit its shareholders’ approval of such increase in authorized share capital and to cause the Board to recommend to the shareholders that they approve such proposal.
