1.2. Conversion Privileges. The conversion rights set forth in Article II shall remain in full force and effect immediately from the date hereof and until the Note is paid in full regardless of the occurrence of an Event of Default. The Note shall be payable in full on the Maturity Date, unless previously converted into Common Stock in accordance with Article II hereof; provided, that if an Event of Default has occurred that has not been timely cured, the Holder may extend the Maturity Date an amount of time equal to the duration of the Event of Default.
1.3. Interest Rate. Simple interest payable on this Note shall accrue at the annual rate of twelve percent (12%) and be payable at the request of the Holder upon or after each conversion of principal pursuant to Article II, and on the Maturity Date, accelerated or otherwise, when the principal and remaining accrued but unpaid interest shall be due and payable, or sooner as described below.
ARTICLE II.
CONVERSION RIGHTS
The Holder shall have the right to convert the principal due under this Note into Shares of the Borrower’s Common Stock (“Common Stock”) as set forth below.
2.1. Conversion into the Borrower’s Common Stock.
(a) The Holder shall have the right from and after the issuance of this Note and then at any time until this Note is fully paid, to convert any outstanding and unpaid principal portion of this Note, at the election of the Holder (the date of giving of such notice of conversion being a “Conversion Date”) into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as such stock exists on the date of issuance of this Note, or any shares of capital stock of Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified, at the conversion price as defined in Section 2.1(b) hereof (the “Conversion Price”), determined as provided herein. Upon delivery to the Borrower of a completed Notice of Conversion, a form of which is annexed hereto, Borrower shall issue and deliver to the Holder within three (3) business days after the Conversion Date (such third day being the “Delivery Date”) that number of shares of Common Stock for the portion of the Note converted in accordance with the foregoing. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing that portion of the principal of the Note to be converted, by the Conversion Price, with all converted fractional shares issuable rounded up to whole shares.
(b) Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.1(c) hereof, the Conversion Price per share shall be $0.01 per share.
(c) The Conversion Price and number and kind of shares or other securities to be issued upon conversion determined pursuant to Section 2.1(a), shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events while this conversion right remains outstanding, as follows:
X. Xxxxxx, Sale of Assets, etc. If the Borrower at any time shall consolidate with or merge into or sell or convey all or substantially all its assets to any other corporation, this Note, as to the unpaid principal portion thereof, shall thereafter be deemed to evidence the right to acquire upon conversion such number and kind of shares or other securities and property as would have been issuable or distributable on account of such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, upon or with respect to the securities subject to the conversion or purchase right immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance. The foregoing provision shall similarly apply to successive transactions of a similar nature by any such successor or purchaser. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the anti-dilution provisions of this Section shall apply to such securities of such successor or purchaser after any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance.
B. Reclassification, etc. If the Borrower at any time shall, by reclassification or otherwise, change the Common Stock into the same or a different number of securities of any class or classes that may be issued or outstanding, this Note, as to the unpaid principal portion thereof, shall thereafter be deemed to evidence the right to acquire upon conversion an adjusted number of such securities and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the Common Stock immediately prior to such reclassification or other change.
C. Stock Splits, Combinations and Dividends. If the shares of Common Stock are subdivided or combined into a greater or smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or if a dividend is paid on the Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately reduced in case of subdivision of shares or stock dividend or proportionately increased in the case of combination of shares, in each such case by the ratio which the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event..
2
D. Share Issuance. For such portion of the Note which remains outstanding and not converted, if the Borrower shall issue or agree to issue any shares of Common Stock for a consideration less than the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such issue, then, and thereafter successively upon each such issue, the Conversion Price shall be reduced to such other lower issue price. For purposes of this adjustment, the issuance of any security carrying the right to convert such security into shares of Common Stock or of any warrant, right or option to purchase Common Stock shall result in an adjustment to the Conversion Price upon the issuance of the above-described security and again upon the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of such conversion or purchase rights if such issuance is at a price lower than the then applicable Conversion Price. The reduction of the Conversion Price described in this paragraph is in addition to other rights of the Holder described in this Note and the Subscription Agreement. No adjustments shall be made under this Paragraph D as a result of (i) the issuance or exercise of the Warrants or the warrants issued to the Placement Agent pursuant to the Subscription Agreement or (ii) issuances of Common Stock or any warrant, right, option or other security issued in any acquisition, merger or strategic alliance, or upon the exercise or conversion of any such warrant, right, option or other security.
(d) Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 2.1(c) above, the Borrower shall promptly mail to the Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
(e) Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock the number of shares of Common Stock during the time periods and in the amounts described in the Subscription Agreement. Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Xxxxxxxx agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers, agents, and transfer agents who are charged with the duty of executing and issuing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of this Note.
2.2. Method of Conversion. This Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part as described in Section 2.1(a) hereof and the Subscription Agreement. Upon partial conversion of this Note, a new Note containing the same date and provisions of this Note shall, at the request of the Holder, be issued by the Borrower to the Holder for the principal balance of this Note and interest which shall not have been converted or paid.
ARTICLE III.
