WHEREAS, the Borrower seeks Payee’s consent to modify and extend the Original Maturity Date to the date specified hereinafter and, in consideration of the mutual promises made by the parties to each other, the Borrower and Payee have agreed to modify certain terms of the Promissory Note as more fully set forth herein; and
WHEREAS, the Borrower shall enter into similar loan extension agreements with all of the holders of the Borrower’s Bridge Notes as in this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged the Borrower and Payee agree as follows:
1. Extensions. The Promissory Note is amended to extend the Original Maturity Date for six (6) months (“First Extended Maturity Date”) with interest accruing during such period at the rate of ten (10%) percent, per annum; thereafter, if not paid in full or if not converted in full into the Borrower’s Common Stock on or before the First Extended Maturity Date, the Promissory Note maturity date shall be automatically extended for an additional six (6) months (the “Second Extended Maturity Date”) with interest accruing during such period at the rate of twelve (12%) percent, per annum.
2. Further Amendments to Promissory Note. The Promissory Note shall be further amended as follows:
(i) The following new provisions shall be inserted into the Promissory Note to read as follows:
The undersigned Payee hereby appoints and authorizes XXXXXXXXX XXXX to represent the Payee and Payee’s investment represented by the Promissory Note in all negotiations with the Borrower following the date hereof and continuing until the Second extended Maturity Date;
