4.2 Mandatory Conversion Upon a Qualified Financing.

(a) Conversion. If the Company consummates a Qualified Financing prior to the occurrence of the Maturity Date, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon shall, on the closing date of such Qualified Financing (the “Qualified Financing Conversion Date”), automatically convert in whole without any further action by the Company or the Holder, and without the payment of additional consideration by

the Holder, into that number of shares of the New Securities issued and sold in such Qualified Financing determined by dividing (a) the Conversion Amount as of the Qualified Financing Conversion Date, by (b) the Qualified Financing Conversion Price. In connection with any conversion of this Note pursuant to this clause (a) the Holder will become a party to any purchase agreement, investor rights agreement, voting agreement and any other similar agreement entered into by the other investors in the Qualified Financing.

(b) Other Forms of Securities. In the event any warrants or other property or rights are issued or granted to investors in the Qualified Financing, a proportionate (based upon the amount of principal and interest on the Note being converted divided by 70%, which shall be deemed to be the amount invested by the Holder in the Qualified Financing in respect of the conversion of the Note) number and amount of such warrants and other property or rights shall be issued to the Holder in connection with such Qualified Financing. In the event that the securities issued in the Qualified Financing shall consist of convertible securities or other instruments that shall not constitute New Securities, the Note will convert into an appropriate amount of such convertible securities or instruments consistent with the foregoing.

4.3 Optional Conversion Upon an Equity Financing Other Than a Qualified Financing. In the event that the Company consummates any Equity Financing that shall not constitute a Qualified Financing (a “Non-Qualified Financing”), then (a) the Company shall, no later than ten (10) business days prior to the closing of such Non-Qualified Financing, but no earlier than ninety days prior to the reasonably anticipated closing date of such Non-Qualified Financing (as contemplated by any bona fide term sheet, letter of intent or similar indication of interest delivered to the Company by the proposed investors in respect of such Non-Qualified Financing), deliver written notice (a “Non-Qualified Financing Notice”) to the Holder of the occurrence of such Non-Qualified Financing, which Non-Qualified Financing Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the terms of such Non-Qualified Financing, and (b) the Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation, exercisable by delivery of written notice thereof to the Company within five (5) business days after delivery of the Non-Qualified Financing Notice, to convert the aggregate outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon into such number of shares of Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalents and other securities issued in such Non-Qualified Financing as determined in accordance with Section 4.2 above (calculated, for such purpose, as though such Non-Qualified Financing was a Qualified Financing for the purposes of Section 4.2 (including, without limitation, as though such Non-Qualified Financing was a Qualified Financing for the purposes of the definitions of “New Securities” and “Qualified Financing Conversion Price”)). In the event that the Holder shall elect to convert the Note pursuant to this Section 4.3, such conversion shall occur on the closing date of the applicable Non-Qualified Financing (the “Non-Qualified Financing Conversion Date”), and shall be subject to the provisions of clause (b) of Section 4.2 as though such Non-Qualified Financing were a Qualified Financing thereunder. In connection with any conversion of this Note pursuant to this Section 4.3 the Holder will become a party to any purchase agreement, investor rights agreement, voting agreement and any other similar agreement

entered into by the other investors in the Non-Qualified Financing.

4.4 Sale Events. If any Sale Event shall occur at any time that this Note shall remain outstanding, (x) the Company shall, no later than ten (10) business days prior to the closing of such Sale Event but no earlier than ninety days prior to the reasonably anticipated closing date of such Sale Event (as contemplated by any bona fide term sheet, letter of intent or similar indication of interest delivered to the Company by the proposed acquirer in respect of such Sale Event), deliver written notice (a “Sale Event Notice”) to the Holder of the occurrence of such Sale Event, which Sale Event Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the terms of such Sale Event, and (y) this Note shall, on the closing date of such Sale Event, automatically be repaid as provided in Section 4.4(a)(i) below or be converted as provided in Section 4.4(a)(ii) below. The Holder shall, by delivery of written notice thereof to the Company within five (5) business days after delivery of the Sale Event Notice referred to in clause (x) above, elect to either:

(i) require the Company to pay to the Holder in cash, upon the closing or occurrence of such Sale Event and in full satisfaction of this Note, an amount (the “Repayment Amount”) equal to the product of (i) 142.86%, times (ii) the outstanding principal amount of this Note together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon; or

(ii) convert the aggregate outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, into that number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing (A) the Conversion Amount as of the Sale Event, by (B) the Sale Event Conversion Price.

In the event that, in connection with any Sale Event, the Holder shall elect to be paid the Repayment Amount in cash in accordance with clause (i) above, the Company shall be required to pay to the Holder, on the date of the closing or occurrence of such Sale Event and in full satisfaction of this Note, an amount in cash equal to the Repayment Amount, and the Holder shall execute and deliver a customary payoff letter and release. In the event that, in connection with any Sale Event, the Holder shall elect to convert this Note in accordance with clause (ii) above, such conversion shall occur immediately prior to the closing of the Sale Event (the “Sale Event Conversion Date”) and the Holder shall be entitled to receive in connection with such Sale Event, in respect of the shares of Common Stock received by the Holder in such conversion, the same proceeds per share payable to each holder of Common Stock in such Sale Event. In the event that, in connection with any Sale Event, the Holder shall not timely make the election in accordance with this Section 4.4(a), the Holder shall be deemed to have elected to require the Company to pay to the Holder the Repayment Amount in cash under clause (i) above.

4.5 General.

(a) Upon the occurrence of any conversion of this Note pursuant to this Section 4, the Holder shall deliver to the Company during regular business hours at the principal office of the Company, or at such other office or agency of the

Company as may be designated by the Company, this Note, duly endorsed or assigned in blank or to the Company.

(b) All shares of New Securities, Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, as applicable, issued upon the conversion of this Note in accordance with its terms shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

(d) The Company shall, as soon as practicable after the Conversion Date, issue and deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of New Securities, Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, as applicable, to which the Holder shall be entitled under this Section 4, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a share.

(e) The Company will not, by amendment of its charter or through reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Note. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will take all such actions as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of New Securities, Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, as applicable, upon the conversion of this Note.

(f) The Company shall pay any issue or transfer taxes that may be payable in respect of any issuance or delivery of shares of New Securities, Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, as applicable, upon conversion of this Note pursuant to this Section 4; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of shares in a name other than the name of the Holder, and no such issuance or delivery shall be made unless and until the person or entity requesting such issuance has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax or has established, to the satisfaction of the Company, that such tax has been paid.

10. Amendment. This Note is the Note issued by the Company pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. Any term of this Note may be amended or waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) only in accordance with Section 8.10 of the Purchase Agreement. No waivers of any term, condition or provisions of this Note, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be, or construed as, a further or continuing waiver of any such term, condition or provision.

11. Remedies. The Holder shall have the rights and remedies in respect of this Note as set forth in Section 7 of the Purchase Agreement.

12. Usury. In the event any interest is paid on this Note which is deemed to be in excess of the then legal maximum rate, then that portion of the interest payment representing an amount in excess of the then legal maximum rate shall be deemed a payment of principal and applied against the principal of this Note.

13. Lock-Up.
