SIRE agrees that, if ICM provides to SIRE written notice exercising ICM's option to convert all or a portion of the principal under the Note into Series C Units on December 19, 2104, SIRE will accept such notice as a proper exercise of ICM's right under the Note and will convert any principal designated in the option exercise notice into Series C Units as provided in the Note. Accordingly, such principal shall not be prepaid by SIRE as described in the Prepayment Notice.
In consideration of the waiver set forth in the preceding sentence, ICM agrees to forbear the exercise of its option to convert principal under the Note into Series C Units from December 5, 2014 to December 18, 2014. ICM's failure to exercise its conversion rights on December 19, 2014 shall be deemed a waiver of its option to exercise any conversion rights under the Note and the Note shall be prepaid as described in the Prepayment Notice.
