Anti-Dilution Protection.
(a)
In the event, prior to the payment of this Note, the Company shall issue any of its shares of common stock as a stock dividend or shall subdivide the number of outstanding shares of common stock into a greater number of shares, then, in either of such events, the shares obtainable pursuant to conversion of this Note shall be increased proportionately; and, conversely, in the event that the Company shall reduce the number of outstanding shares of common stock by combining such shares into a smaller number of shares, then, in such event, the number of shares of

In the event that the Company shall pay a dividend consisting of the securities of any other entity or in cash or other property, upon conversion of this Note, the Holder shall receive the securities, cash, or property which the Holder would have been entitled to if the Holder had converted this Note immediately prior to the record date of such dividend.

In the event, prior to the payment of this Note, the Company shall be recapitalized by reclassifying its outstanding common stock (other than into shares of common stock with a different par value, or by changing its outstanding shares of common stock to shares without par value), or in the event the Company or a successor corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity (any of which is defined as a “Corporation”) shall consolidate or merge with or convey all or substantially all of its, or of any successor Corporation’s property and assets to any other Corporation or Corporations (any such other Corporation being included within the meaning of the term “successor Corporation” used in the context of any consolidation or merger of any other Corporation with, or the sale of all or substantially all of the property of any such other Corporation to, another Corporation or Corporations), or in the event of any other material change in the capital structure of the Company or of any successor Corporation by reason of any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise, then, as a condition of any such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, merger or conveyance, a prompt, proportionate, equitable, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby the Holder of this Note shall thereafter have the right to purchase, upon the basis and the terms and conditions specified in this Note, in lieu of the securities of the Company theretofore purchasable upon the conversion of this Note, such shares, securities or assets as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for the number of securities of the Company theretofore obtainable upon conversion of this Note as provided above had such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, merger or conveyance not taken place; and in any such event, the rights of the Holder of this Note to any adjustment in the number of shares of common stock obtainable upon conversion of this Note, as provided, shall continue and be preserved in respect of any shares, securities or assets which the Holder becomes entitled to obtain. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Section 2 shall not apply to a merger with a subsidiary provided the Company is the continuing Corporation and provided further such merger does not result in any reclassification, capital reorganization or other change of the securities issuable under this Note.

have been entitled to receive, the same kind and amount of any shares, securities or assets as may be issuable, distributable or payable upon any such sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up with respect to each common share of the Company; provided, however, that in the event of any such sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, the right to convert this Note shall terminate on a date fixed by the Company, such date so fixed to be not earlier than 6:00 p.m., New York time, on the 30th day after the date on which notice of such termination of the right to convert this Note has been given by mail to the Holder of this Note at such Xxxxxx’s address as it appears on the books of the Company.
