If any Event of Default occurs, subject to any cure period, the full Principal Amount, together with interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof to the date of acceleration shall become, at the Holder’s election, immediately due and payable in cash. Upon payment of the full Principal Amount, together with interest and a default interest at the rate of 12% per annum (accruing as from the time of occurrence of the Event of Default) and other amounts owing in respect thereof, in accordance herewith, this Note shall promptly be surrendered to or as directed by the Company. The Holder need not provide, and the Company hereby waives any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and the Holder may immediately and without expiration of any grace period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under applicable law. Such declaration may be rescinded and annulled by the Holder at any time prior to payment hereunder and the Holder shall have all rights as a Note holder until such time, if any, as the full payment under this Section 0 shall have been received by it. No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.
3. Conversion. This Note, all or any part of the Principal Amount of the Note, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be convertible into the following: (i) Units consisting of (1) Conversion Shares and one (1) Warrant Share (such Warrant Shares to be issued at the Exercise Price pursuant to the terms of the Warrant).
3.1 Conversion Price; Conversion Shares. The conversion price for the Principal Amount and interest accrued under this Note shall be $7.00 ("Conversion Price"). The number of Units issuable upon a conversion hereunder shall be determined by the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding Principal Amount of this Note, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to be converted by (y) the applicable Conversion Price.
21
3.2 Mandatory Conversion.
(a) At any time after the first three (3) years of this Agreement, the entire Principal Amount under this Note, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall automatically convert into Units if at any time from and after the issue date hereof, the closing price of the Company’s Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market (or other national stock exchange or market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted) equals or exceeds $15.00 per share (which amount may be adjusted for certain capital events, such as stock splits, as described herein) for ten (10) consecutive Trading Days (a "Conversion Event"). The Principal Amount under this Note, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall convert at $7.00 per share. Within five (5) Business Days after such Conversion Event, the Company shall notify the Holder that the Note must be automatically converted pursuant to this Section 3.2 and specify the Principal Amount of the Note and accrued interest that will automatically converted and the date on which such conversion was effected.
3.3 Voluntary Conversion. During the Conversion Period (as may be extended pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreement), this Note shall be convertible (pursuant to Section 1.2 and 1.3 of the Subscription Agreement), in whole or in part, into Units at the option of the Holder, at any time and from time to time, at the applicable Conversion Price. The Holder shall effect conversions by delivering to the Company a Notice of Conversion, the forms of which is attached hereto as Annex A for conversion into the Units ("Notice of Conversion"), specifying therein the Principal Amount of this Note and accrued interest, if any, to be converted, and the date on which such conversion shall be effected (such date, the "Conversion Date"). If no Conversion Date is specified in a Notice of Conversion, the Conversion Date shall be the date that such Notice of Conversion is deemed delivered hereunder. To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company unless the entire Principal Amount of this Note, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, has been so converted in which case the Holder shall surrender this Note as promptly as is reasonably practicable after such conversion without delaying the Company’s obligation to deliver the Units otherwise pursuant to the terms of this Note. Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding Principal Amount of this Note in an amount equal to the applicable conversion. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the Principal Amount(s) converted and the date of such conversion(s). The Company may deliver an objection to any Notice of Conversion within five (5) Business Days of delivery of such Notice of Conversion. The Holder, and any assignee by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Note, the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of this Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
3.4 Reservation of Common Stock. Oregenesis Inc. shall reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of its Common Stock to be issued as the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares upon conversion of the Outstanding Amount into the Units.
3.5 Delivery. In the event the Holder elects to convert the Principal Amount and interest owed under this Note into Units, then not later than ten Business Days after any Conversion Date, the Company will deliver to the Holder, either by overnight courier service to the address of the Holder set out on page 1 of this Note (or such other address as the Holder may notify the Company of from time to time in accordance with Section 5 hereof) or electronically, at the discretion of the Holder, certificates representing the Conversion Shares and Warrants (bearing such legends as may be required by applicable law) representing the aggregate number of Conversion Shares and Warrants being acquired upon conversion.
22
3.6 Fractional Shares and Warrants. Upon a conversion hereunder, the Company shall not be required to issue certificates representing fractions of any Conversion Shares or Warrants, and the number of Conversion Shares and Warrants shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number.
3.7 Issuance of Replacement Note. Upon any partial conversion of this Note, a replacement Note containing the same date and provisions of this Note shall, at the written request of the Holder, be issued by the Company to the Holder for the outstanding Principal Amount of this Note and accrued interest which shall not have been converted or paid, provided Holder has surrendered an original Note to the Company. In the event that the Holder elects not to surrender a Note for reissuance upon partial payment or conversion, the Holder hereby indemnifies the Company against any and all loss or damage attributable to a third-party claim in an amount in excess of the actual amount then due under the Note.
4. Adjustments
4.1 If, at any time while any portion of this Note remains outstanding, the Company effectuates a stock split or reverse stock split of its Common Stock or issues a dividend on Common Stock consisting of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price and any other amounts calculated as contemplated hereby or by any of the other Agreements shall be equitably adjusted to reflect such action. By way of illustration, and not in limitation, of the foregoing, (i) if the Company effectuates a 2:1 split of its Common Stock, thereafter, with respect to any conversion for which the Company issues shares after the record date of such split, the Conversion Price shall be deemed to be one-half of what it had been immediately prior to such split; (ii) if the Company effectuates a 1:10 reverse split of its Common Stock, thereafter, with respect to any conversion for which the Company issues shares after the record date of such reverse split, the Conversion Price shall be deemed to be ten times what it had been calculated to be immediately prior to such split; and (iii) if the Company declares a stock dividend of one share of Common Stock for every 10 shares outstanding, thereafter, with respect to any conversion for which the Company issues shares after the record date of such dividend, the Conversion Price shall be deemed to be such amount multiplied by a fraction, of which the numerator is the number of shares (10 in the example) for which a dividend share will be issued and the denominator is such number of shares plus the dividend share(s) issuable or issued thereon (11 in the example).
4.2 In case of any capital reorganization or of any reclassification of the capital of the Company or in case of the consolidation, merger or amalgamation of the Company with or into any other company or of the sale of the assets of the Company as or substantially as an entirety or of any other company, this Note shall, after such capital reorganization, reclassification of capital, consolidation, merger, amalgamation or sale, confer the right to convert into that number of shares or other securities or property of the Company or of the company resulting from such capital reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, amalgamation or to which such sale shall be made, as the case may be, to which the Holder of the shares deliverable at the time of such capital reorganization, reclassification of capital, consolidation, merger, amalgamation or sale had the Note been converted would have been entitled on such capital reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, amalgamation or sale and in any such case, if necessary, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the application of the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights and interest thereafter of the Holders of the Notes to the end that the provisions set forth herein shall thereafter correspondingly be made applicable as nearly as may reasonable be expected in relation to any shares or other securities or property thereafter deliverable on the exercise of the Warrants. The subdivision or consolidation of the shares at any time outstanding into a greater or lesser number of shares (whether with or without par value) shall not be deemed to be a capital reorganization or a reclassification of the capital of the Company for the purposes of this Section.

12. Effect of Exercise of Warrants
Upon surrender and payment as aforesaid, the Shares so subscribed for shall be deemed to have been issued and such Holder shall be deemed to have become the holder (or holders) of record of such Shares on the date of such surrender and payment and such Shares shall be issued at the Exercise Price in effect on the date of such surrender and payment.
Within ten Business Days after surrender and payment as aforesaid, the Company shall forthwith cause to be delivered to the person or persons in whose name or names the Shares so subscribed for are to be issued as specified in such subscription or mailed to him or them at his or their respective addresses specified in such subscription, a certificate or certificates for the appropriate number of Shares not exceeding those which the Holder is entitled to purchase pursuant to the Warrant surrendered.
13. Subscription for Less than Entitlement
The Holder of any Warrant may subscribe for and purchase a number of Shares less than the number which he is entitled to purchase pursuant to the surrendered Warrant. In the event of any purchase of a number of Shares less than the number which can be purchase pursuant to a Warrant, the Holder, upon exercise thereof, shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant Certificate in respect of the balance of the Shares which he was entitled to purchase pursuant to the surrendered Warrant Certificate and which were not then purchased.
14. Warrants for Fractions of Shares
To the extent that the Holder of any Warrant is entitled to receive on the exercise or partial exercise thereof a fraction of a Share, such right may be exercised in respect of such fraction only in combination with another Warrant or other Warrants which in the aggregate entitle the Holder to receive a whole number of such Shares.
15. Expiration of Warrants
After the expiration of the Expiry Period, all rights thereunder shall wholly cease and terminate and such Warrants shall be void and of no further force and effect.
16. Adjustment of Exercise Price
The Exercise Price and the number of Common Shares deliverable upon the exercise of the Warrants shall be subject to adjustment in the event and in the manner following:
(a) If and whenever the Shares at any time outstanding shall be subdivided into a greater or consolidated into a lesser number of Shares, the Exercise Price shall be decreased or increased proportionately, as the case may be, and upon any such subdivision or consolidation, the number of Shares deliverable upon the exercise of the Warrants shall be increased or decreased proportionately, as the case may be;
(b) In case of any capital reorganization or of any reclassification of the capital of the Company or in case of the consolidation, merger or amalgamation of the Company with or into any other company or of the sale of the assets of the Company as or substantially as an entirety or of any other company, each Warrant shall, after such capital reorganization, reclassification of capital, consolidation, merger, amalgamation or sale, confer the right to purchase that number of shares or other securities or property of the Company or of the company resulting from such capital reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, amalgamation or to which such sale shall be made, as the case may be, to which the Holder of the shares deliverable at the time of such capital reorganization, reclassification of capital, consolidation, merger, amalgamation or sale had the Warrants been exercised, would have been entitled on such capital reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, amalgamation or sale and in any such case, if necessary, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the application of the provisions set forth in Sections 13 to 20 hereof with respect to the rights and interest thereafter of the Holders of the Warrants to the end that the provisions set forth in Sections 13 to 20 hereof shall thereafter correspondingly be made applicable as nearly as may reasonable be expected in relation to any shares or other securities or property thereafter deliverable on the exercise of the Warrants. The subdivision or consolidation of the Shares at any time outstanding into a greater or lesser number of Shares (whether with or without par value) shall not be deemed to be a capital reorganization or a reclassification of the capital of the Company for the purposes of this Section 16(b).
32
The adjustments provided for in this Section 16 pursuant to any Warrants are cumulative .and will become effective immediately after the record date for, or, if no record date is fixed, the effective date, of the event which results in such adjustments.
17. Determination of Adjustments

18. Covenants of the Company
The Company will reserve and there will remain unissued out of its authorized capital a sufficient number of Shares to satisfy the rights of purchase provided for in the Warrants should the Holders of all the Warrants from time to time outstanding determine to exercise such rights in respect of all Shares which they are or may be entitled to purchase pursuant thereto.
19. Immunity of Shareholders, etc.
The Holder hereby waives and releases any right, cause of action or remedy now or hereafter existing in any jurisdiction against any past, present or future incorporator, shareholder, director or officer (as such) of the Company for the issue of Shares pursuant to any Warrant or on any covenant, agreement, representation or warranty by the Company herein contained.
