stock of the Company based on a per share conversion price of the lower of (i)
$0.25, or (ii) a twenty five percent (25%) discount to the average closing
trading price (as reported by Bloomberg) of a share of Company common stock
during the five (5) trading days prior to the conversion date (the
“Conversion Price”);
provided, however, the number of shares of Company common
stock that may be acquired by Holder upon any conversion of the Debt shall be
limited to the extent necessary to ensure that, following such exercise, the
total number of shares of Company common stock then beneficially owned by Holder
and his affiliates and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Company
common stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d)
of the Exchange Act, does not exceed 4.999% of the total number of issued and
outstanding shares of Company common stock (including for such purpose the
shares of Company common stock issuable upon such conversion). For
such purposes, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with
Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Holder
may waive such limitation on conversion contained in this Section
2.2 or increase or decrease
such limitation percentage to any other percentage as specified in a written
notice to the Company.”

notice to the Company, may convert in whole or in part, the outstanding
