The Notes shall mature on the Maturity Date, and on such date, or upon any accelerated maturity as herein provided, the full amount of principal under the Notes then outstanding, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and, in the case of accelerated maturity, all premium thereon (including the Make Whole Premium) shall be due and payable.

3.2 Interest

A. Base Interest. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.2B, the unpaid principal amount of the Notes shall bear interest from and after the Amendment and Restatement Closing Date at a base rate of twenty percent (20%) per annum (such interest is referred to herein as the “Base Interest”), which shall be payable in cash on each Interest Payment Date in arrears.

B. Default Interest Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the unpaid principal amount of the Notes and, to the extent permitted by Law, any accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any other Obligations (including the Make Whole Premium) then due and payable shall bear interest at a default rate of the Base Interest plus two percent (2%) per annum (such interest rate is referred to herein as the “Default Interest Rate”) and be payable in cash upon demand.

-25-

C. Computation of Interest. Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a year consisting of three hundred sixty-five (365) days and the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues.

D. Maximum Amount of Interest. Anything to the contrary herein or in any Transaction Document notwithstanding, interest payable hereunder shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted under applicable Law.

E. Conversion. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.2 to the contrary, upon conversion of the Notes in accordance with their terms, Note Holders shall not receive any separate cash payment for accrued and unpaid interest not yet due. The Note Conversion shall be deemed to satisfy the Issuer’s obligation to pay the principal amount of the Notes subject to the Note Conversion and accrued and unpaid interest thereon (other than interest payable at or prior to the date of conversion) from the later to occur of the Amendment and Restatement Closing Date and the last Interest Payment Date on which interest was paid to, and including, the Note Conversion Date. As a result, any such accrued and unpaid interest on Notes subject to the Note Conversion shall be deemed to be paid in full rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited.

3.3 Principal Payments and Prepayments

A. Certain Prepayments.

(i) The Issuer shall not be permitted to prepay all or any portion of the Notes except as expressly permitted under this Section 3.3, unless each of the Note Holders otherwise previously consents thereto in writing. For the avoidance of doubt, any amount prepaid on the Notes may not be reborrowed.

The Issuer shall provide an irrevocable Prepayment Notice not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the date of any such prepayment.

(iii) If the Issuer desires to make a prepayment in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.3A(ii) or the Obligations are accelerated as a result of an Event of Default, by operation of law or otherwise, the Issuer shall pay the following amounts:

(a) the aggregate principal amount outstanding under, and accrued interest on, the Notes; plus

(b) the Make Whole Premium.

B. [Reserved]

C. Prepayments upon Change of Control. In the event of any prospective Change of Control, the Issuer, not less than thirty (30) days and not more than sixty (60) days prior to such Change of Control, must give notice thereof to the Note Holders, and in such notice make or cause to be made an irrevocable offer to purchase all outstanding Notes, on a Business Day on or prior to the date such Change of Control is proposed to occur, at a purchase price equal to 100% of their principal amount plus the Make Whole Premium. The offer must remain open for at least twenty (20) days following its commencement. The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of all applicable and any other securities Laws and regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to any offer to purchase described herein. Notwithstanding the above, if the Note Holders consent to such Change of Control, the Issuer shall not be required to commence an offer to purchase the outstanding Notes and no Note Holder will have the right to make a request for such a purchase.

(iii) any sale, lease, exchange or other transfer (in one transaction or a series of transactions) of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer;

(iv) any liquidation or dissolution of the Issuer or approval of any such liquidation or dissolution by the Board of Directors of the Issuer; or

(v) any consolidation or merger of the Issuer (including a triangular merger) where the holders of the Common Stock of the Issuer, immediately prior to the consolidation or merger, would not, immediately after the consolidation or merger, beneficially own, directly or indirectly, Common Stock representing in the aggregate more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of all the outstanding Equity Interests in the Issuer or otherwise have the power to elect fifty per cent (50%) or more of the members of the Board of Directors of the Issuer;

3.5 General Provisions Regarding Payment

A. If more than one Note is outstanding, all payments on the Notes shall be applied to them pro rata based on the principal amounts outstanding.

B. All payments of principal and interest and other amounts due hereunder and under the Notes shall be in same day funds and delivered to the Note Holders not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the date due (without set-off or counterclaim) in Dollars in immediately available funds through wire transfer to the account of the Note Holders at such place in the United States as shall be designated in writing by the Note Holders to the Issuer from time to time (such payment instructions the “Payment Instructions”). At the time of payment, written confirmation of such payment shall be sent to the applicable Note Holders by facsimile at the number set forth in the Payment Instructions indicating the principal and interest paid and a wire transfer identification number. Funds received by the Note Holders after that time shall be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest and fees (if applicable) hereunder or under the Notes.

A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Issuer by a Note Holder shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

D. Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Issuer or applicable Transaction Document Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 3.6, the Issuer or applicable Transaction Document Party shall deliver to each of the Note Holders with respect to which such Taxes were paid the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to each such Note Holder.

The Issuer, upon the request of such Note Holder, shall repay to such Note Holder the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 3.6F (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such Note Holder is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.6F, in no event will the Note Holder be required to pay any amount to the Issuer pursuant to this Section 3.6F the payment of which would place the Note Holder in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Note Holder would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 3.6F shall not be construed to require any Note Holder to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Issuer or any other person.

SECTION 9. MISCELLANEOUS

9.1 Registration and Transfer of the Notes

A. Register. The Notes shall be issued in registered form. The Issuer shall keep at its principal office a register for the registration and transfers of the Notes. The name and address of each holder of the Notes, the principal amount (and stated interest) of the Notes held by each Note Holder, each transfer thereof and the name and address of each transferee of the Notes shall be set out in such register. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the Person in whose name any Note shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes hereof. This Section 9.1A shall be construed so that the Notes are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Issuer shall give to any Note Holder promptly upon request therefor, a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all registered holders of Notes. Any registered holder of the Notes shall be considered to be a “Note Holder” for purposes of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document.

B. Transfers.

(i) No Note Holder may sell, assign, transfer, or grant participations in any of the Notes to any Permitted Transferee except as permitted under this Section 9.1B and subject to compliance with the transfer procedures set forth in Section 9.1C below; provided, however, no sale, assignment, transfer or grant of participation in the Notes shall be permitted unless:

(a) the Note Holders have given their prior written consent to such sale, assignment, transfer or grant (and any purported sale, assignment, transfer or grant without such consent shall be void and of no effect);

(b) the subsequent purchaser, assignee, transferee or participant is a person who qualifies as an “accredited investor” as that term is defined under SEC Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act and the transaction complies with applicable state securities Laws; and

(c) the subsequent purchaser, assignee, transferee or participant has provided to the Issuer representations and warranties in the form of Section 9.22M.

(ii) The Issuer hereby acknowledges and agrees that any sale, assignment, transfer or grant of the Notes will give rise to a direct obligation of the Issuer to the transferee, assignee or purchaser. Except with the prior written consent of the Note Holders, no Note Holder (other than the Note Purchaser) shall have a right to consent or vote on any matters hereunder other than with respect to:

(a) the extension of any date of any payment of principal or interest in respect of any Note;

(b) the reduction of the amount of any such payment of principal;

-73-

(c) a decrease in the rate of interest on any Note (as specified in the Note) other than any imposition of a default rate of interest;

(d) the termination of any Transaction Document except in accordance with its terms; or

(e) release of all or substantially all of the Collateral securing the Notes other than in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents;

provided, however, that the restrictions set forth in this Section 9.1B(ii) shall not apply in respect of such waiver or amendment required by any applicable Law or request of any governmental authority (including in connection with any actual or proposed reorganization, restructuring, bankruptcy, insolvency, or other similar event affecting the Issuer or any other party to the Security Agreements.

(iii) Each Note Holder that sells a participation shall (i) acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Issuer, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Notes (the “Participant Register”), and (ii) obtain from each Participant the documentation prescribed by Section 3.6E as if such participant were a Note Holder; provided that no Note Holder shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any loans) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such loan is in registered form under Treasury Regulation Section 5f.103-1(c). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Note Holder shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Transaction Document Parties agree that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.6 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 3.6E (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.6E shall be delivered to the participating Note Holder)) to the same extent as if it were a Note Holder and had acquired its interest by assignment; provided that such participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.6 with respect to any participation than its participating Note Holder would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in law that occurs after the participant acquired the applicable participation.

C. Procedures. Upon surrender of any Note at the principal office of the Issuer for registration of transfer or exchange (for registration of transfer, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered holder of such Note or his attorney duly authorized in writing and accompanied by the address for notices and payment instructions of each transferee of such Note or part thereof and a representation by each such transferee that such transferee is a Permitted Transferee), the Issuer shall execute and deliver, at the Issuer’s expense, one or more new Notes (as requested by the holder thereof) in exchange therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the surrendered Note. Each such new Note shall be substantially in the form attached in Exhibit A and shall be payable to such Person as such holder may request.

In no event shall any Indemnitee be liable to the Issuer for any consequential, indirect, special or punitive damages other than payable with respect to a third party claim.

B. As used herein, “Indemnified Liabilities” means any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages (including natural resource damages), penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs (including the costs of any investigation, study, sampling, testing, abatement, cleanup, removal, remediation, or other response action necessary to remove, remediate, clean up, or xxxxx any Hazardous Materials), expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable and documented fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel for such Indemnitees in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened by any Person, whether or not any such Indemnitee shall be designated as a party or a potential party thereto, and any fees or expenses incurred by Indemnitees in enforcing this indemnity), and whether based on any federal, state, or foreign Laws (including securities and commercial Laws and Environmental Laws), on common Law or equitable cause or on contract or otherwise, that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any such Indemnitee, in any manner relating to or arising out of:

Such Note Purchaser and its advisors, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Issuer.

(iii) neither the Issuer nor any other Person is under any obligation to register the Notes or the Shares issuable upon conversion thereof under the Securities Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder.

H. Legends. Such Note Purchaser understands that the certificates or other instruments representing the Notes and, until such time as the resale of the Shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes have been registered under the Securities Act as contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement, the stock certificates representing any Shares issued upon conversion of the Notes, except as set forth below, shall bear any legend as required by the “blue sky” laws of any state and a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of such stock certificates):

NEITHER THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE CONVERTIBLE HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
