10. CONTINUING VALIDITY. Except as expressly set forth (if at all) in this Forbearance, the terms of the Existing Loan Documents remain unchanged and in full force and effect.

Borrower acknowledges that it is not relying upon and has not relied upon any representation or statement made by PFG with respect to the facts underlying this release or with regard to any of such party's rights or asserted rights.
(c) This release may be pleaded as a full and complete defense and/or as a cross-complaint or counterclaim against any action, suit, or other proceeding that may be instituted, prosecuted or attempted in breach of this release.

The authorized series of the Company's previously-authorized preferred stock shall have the following preferences, privileges, powers and restrictions thereof, as follows:
RESOLVED, that pursuant to the authority granted to and vested in the Board in accordance with the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws of the Company, the Board hereby authorizes a series of the Company's previously authorized preferred stock (the "Preferred Stock"), and hereby states the designation and number of shares, and fixes the relative rights, preferences, privileges, powers and restrictions thereof as follows:
I.
|
NAME OF THE COMPANY
|
II.
|
DESIGNATION AND AMOUNT; DIVIDENDS
|
A.
|
Designation. The designation of said series of preferred stock shall be Series G Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.00001 par value per share (the "Series G Preferred").
|
B.
|
Number of Shares. The number of shares of Series G Preferred authorized shall be forty-three thousand two hundred twenty (43,220) shares. Each share of Series G Preferred shall have a stated value equal to $500 (as may be adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations or splits with respect to such shares) (the "Series G Stated Value").
|
Dividends. There will be no dividends due or payable on the Series G Preferred.
III.
|
LIQUIDATION PREFERENCE
|
The Series G Preferred shall have no liquidation preference.
IV.
|
CONVERSION
|
A. Optional Conversion. Each Holder of Series G Preferred shall have the right, at any time commencing after the issuance, to convert the Series G Stated Value of such shares (the "Conversion Amount") into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock of the Company ("Conversion Shares"). The number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Conversion Amount shall equal the Conversion Amount divided by the Conversion Price then in effect. The "Conversion Price" of the Series G Preferred shall be $0.045, subject to adjustment and except as otherwise set forth below. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of Series G Preferred. In lieu of any fractional share to which the holder would otherwise be entitled, the Company shall round up to the nearest whole share. In order to convert Series G Preferred into shares of Common Stock, the Holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed, to the office of the Company, and shall give written notice to the Company at such office that the holder elects to convert the same, the number of shares of Series G Preferred so converted and a calculation of the Conversion Price (with an advance copy of the certificate(s) and the notice by facsimile); provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to issue certificates evidencing shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion unless such shares of Series G Preferred are delivered to the Company as provided above, or the Holder notifies the Company or its transfer agent that such certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an agreement satisfactory to the Company and its transfer agent to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection with such certificates. Notice of conversion may be given by a holder at any time during the day up to 5:00 p.m. New York City time and such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date notice of conversion is received by the Company. Within three (3) business days after the notice of conversion is delivered in accordance with the procedures set forth above, the Company shall instruct the transfer agent to issue shares of its Common Stock and to forward the same to the Holder.
B. Automatic Conversion. The Series G Preferred will automatically convert ("Automatic Conversion") upon the closing of an underwritten offering (the "Qualified Offering") by the Company pursuant to which the Company receives aggregate gross proceeds of at least Ten Million Dollars (US$10,000,000) in consideration of the purchase of shares of Common Stock (the "Offering Securities") and/or which results in the listing of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq National Market, the Nasdaq Capital Market, the New York Stock Exchange, or the NYSE MKT. Upon the closing of the Qualified Offering the aggregate Series G Stated Value of all shares of Series G Preferred owned by such Holder will convert into Common Stock at the Conversion Price then in effect. Upon the triggering of Automatic Conversion, the Company shall send written notice (the "Automatic Conversion Notice") to each holder of record of Series G Preferred specifying the date (the "Effective Date") upon which such conversion is to become effective (which Effective Date shall not be more than thirty (30) days after the event which causes such automatic conversion) and to surrender to the Company, in the manner and at the place designed in the Automatic Conversion Notice, the certificate or certificates, if applicable, representing the number of shares of Series G Preferred held by such Holder. In the event of an Automatic Conversion, (i) the Holder will execute and deliver, as a condition to the Company's issuance and delivery of the shares underlying the Automatic Conversion, a lock-up agreement covering a period of 365 days beginning on the date of the Qualified Offering (the "Lock-up Period"), in form and substance reasonably required by the Company and/or the underwriter for the Qualified Offering. On or after the Effective Date, each holder of Series G Preferred shall surrender to the Company the certificate or certificates representing the Series G Preferred, if applicable, owned by such holder as of the Effective Date in the manner and place set forth in the Automatic Conversion Notice and thereupon the Company shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver to the holders of the Series G Preferred either cash or certificate(s) for the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in connection with such Automatic Conversion.
C. Certain Adjustments. The Conversion Price will be adjusted proportionately in the event of stock splits, reverse stock splits or stock dividends.
V.

All shares of the Series G Preferred shall rank (i) senior to the Company's Common Stock and any other class or series of capital stock of the Company hereafter created, the terms of which specifically provide that such class or series shall rank junior to the Series G Preferred (each of the securities in clause (i) collectively referred to as "Junior Securities"), (ii) pari passu with the Company's Series D and Series E classes of preferred stock, (iii) pari passu with any class or series of capital stock of the Company hereafter created and specifically ranking, by its terms, on par with the Series G Preferred and (iv) junior to any class or series of capital stock of the Company hereafter created specifically ranking, by its terms, senior to the Series G Preferred, in each case as to dividend distributions or distributions of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary.
VI.
|
VOTING RIGHTS
|
The holders of our Series G Preferred will vote together with the holders of the Company's Common Stock on an as converted basis on each matter submitted to a vote of holders of Common Stock. The number of votes that may be cast by a holder of Series G Preferred shall be equal to the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of such Holder's Series G Preferred on the record date for determining those stockholders entitled to vote on the matter.
In addition, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Company's outstanding Series G Preferred is required to (i) amend the Company's certificate of incorporation or bylaws in a way that would be adverse to the holders of the Company's Series G Preferred, (ii) effect a liquidation event, (iii) declare or pay dividends (other than on currently outstanding preferred stock), and (iv) and issue any securities in parity or senior to the rights of the Series G Preferred with respect to dividend distributions or distributions of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company.
