4. Reserved.
5. Conversion.
(a) Right to Convert.
(i) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5
and to stockholder approval (and so subject only to the extent required by the
rules of the Nasdaq Capital Market or any other national securities exchange or
quotation system upon which the Payor's common stock, par value $0.01 per share
("Common Stock"), may be listed from time to time), the Payee shall have the
right, at its option, at any time and from time to time, upon or following the
consummation of any Subsequent Round of
5
Financing (as defined below), to convert
all or any portion of the principal amount of this Note (the "Principal
Obligations") into a number of fully paid and nonassessable Subsequent Round
Securities (with the most favorable terms received by any investor in such
Subsequent Round of Financing) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the
aggregate amount of Principal Obligations to be converted by the lowest price
per Subsequent Round Security paid by any investor in such Subsequent Round of
Financing. Written notice of a Subsequent Round of Financing stating the date on
which such Subsequent Round of Financing is expected to become effective and
describing the terms and conditions of such Subsequent Round of Financing shall
be delivered by the Company to, and received by, the Payee not less than 10 days
prior to the consummation of such Subsequent Round of Financing.
(ii) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5 and to
stockholder approval (and so subject only to the extent required by the rules
of the Nasdaq Capital Market or any other national securities exchange or
quotation system upon which the Common Stock may be listed from time to
time), the Payee shall have the right, at its option, at any time and from
time to time, to convert all or any portion of the Principal Obligations into
a number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock equal to the

(b) Procedure for Conversion. In order to convert all or any portion of
the Principal Obligations, the Payee shall (i) surrender this Note, duly
endorsed, at the office of the Payor and (ii) simultaneously with such
surrender, notify the Payor in writing of its election to convert all or a
portion of the Principal Obligations, which notice shall specify the amount
of Principal Obligations to be so converted, and whether such conversion is
for Common Stock or Subsequent Round Securities. The date on which the Note
is surrendered for conversion is referred to herein as the "Conversion
Date." As soon as practicable after the Conversion Date, the Payee shall be
entitled to receive a certificate or certificates, registered in such name or
names as the Payee may direct, representing the Conversion Securities
issuable upon conversion of the applicable Principal Obligations, along with
a new promissory note, in the same form as this Note, reflecting any
Principal Obligations that have not been so converted and any obligations in
respect of accrued and unpaid interest on converted Principal Obligations;
provided that the Payee shall be treated for all purposes as the record
holder of such Conversion Securities as of the Conversion Date. The issuance
of Conversion Securities upon conversion of any Principal Obligations shall
be made without charge to the Payee for any issuance tax in respect thereof,
provided that the Payor shall not be required to pay any tax that may be
payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of
any certificate in a name other than that of the Payee.
(c) Reservation of Shares. Payor shall reserve and keep available solely
for issuance upon the conversion of Principal Obligations such number of
shares of Conversion Securities as will from time to time be sufficient to
permit the conversion of all outstanding Principal Obligations, and, if
applicable, shall take all action to increase the authorized number of
Conversion Securities if at any time there shall be insufficient authorized
but unissued Conversion Securities to permit such reservation or permit the
conversion of all outstanding Principal Obligations. The Payor covenants
that all Conversion Securities that shall be so issued shall be duly
authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable by the Payor, not
subject to any preemptive rights, and free from any taxes, liens and charges
with respect to the issue thereof. The Payor will take all such action as
may be necessary to ensure that all such Conversion Securities may be so
issued without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or any
requirement of any national securities exchange or quotation system upon
which the Common Stock may be listed.
(d) Certain Definitions. For purposes of this Note, the following terms
shall have the following meanings (with terms defined in the singular having
comparable meanings when used in the plural and vice versa):
"Conversion Securities" means Common Stock or Subsequent Round
Securities, as applicable.
"Majority of Notes Outstanding" means a majority of the aggregate
outstanding principal amount of notes issued pursuant to the Note Purchase
Agreement dated as of [___], 200[_] by and between the Payor and the
Investors party thereto.
"Subsequent Round of Financing" means the offer and sale for cash
by the Company of its equity securities.
"Subsequent Round Securities" means the equity securities sold in
the Subsequent Round of Financing; provided that, to the extent that two or
more types or classes of equity securities are sold as a unit in the
Subsequent Round of Financing, "Subsequent Round Securities" shall mean a
unit consisting of the same types or classes of equity securities, in the
same proportion, as the units sold in the Subsequent Round of Financing.
6. Suits for Enforcement.
(a) Upon the occurrence of any one or more Events of Default, the
holder of this Note may proceed to protect and enforce its rights by suit in

and other charges of counsel incurred in connection with any action in which

a portion of their rights or obligations under this Note to an affiliate
without the prior written consent of the Payor.

exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or
remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right, power or remedy. The remedies provided for herein are
cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies that may be available to the
Payor or Payee at law, in equity or otherwise.
(b) Any amendment, supplement or modification of or to any provision of
this Note, any waiver of any provision of this Note and any consent to any

arising, between any Payor and the Payee; and the Payor hereby waives the
right to interpose any setoff or counterclaim or cross-claim in connection
with any such litigation, irrespective of the nature of such setoff,
counterclaim or cross-claim except to the extent that the failure so to
assert any such setoff, counterclaim or cross-claim would permanently
preclude the prosecution of the same.
