(g) Put Right. First New York shall have the right (the “Put Right”) to require Overstock to repurchase all, but not less than all, of the outstanding Cryptodebt, at any time after Closing. The price Overstock shall be required to pay upon exercise of the Put Right (the “Put Repurchase Price”) shall depend on the date on which the Put Right is exercised. If First New York exercises the Put Right at any time before November 2, 2015, the amount Overstock shall be obligated to pay to First New York in full satisfaction of all of Overstock’s obligations under the Cryptodebt shall be an amount equal to 96.0% of the principal amount of the Cryptodebt plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

If the Redemption Right is exercised by Overstock, the Note Prepayment Amount shall become due and payable upon the closing of the Redemption Right transaction. To exercise the Redemption Right, Overstock shall deliver written notice of its exercise of the Redemption Right to First New York at its address set forth on the signature page to this Agreement, or by facsimile to the facsimile number for First New York set forth on the signature page to this Agreement, such notice to be in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit C to this Agreement (the “Redemption Notice”). The closing of the Redemption Right transaction (and the related settlement of the Promissory Note and the payment of the Note Prepayment Amount) shall occur within two (2) Business Days following the date on which First New York received the Redemption Notice (the “Redemption Date”). Following the exercise of the Redemption Right, Overstock and Medici shall take all necessary action to complete the actions contemplated by Section 4.2(f) prior to the Redemption Date. The failure by Overstock or Medici to complete such actions by the Redemption Date, shall not delay the closing of the Redemption Right transaction. At the closing of the Redemption Right (and the related settlement of the Promissory Note and the payment of the Note Prepayment Amount), the Cryptodebt shall be redeemed upon the payment by Overstock to First New York of the Redemption Repurchase Price and the Promissory Note shall be settled and cancelled upon that payment by First New York to Overstock of the Note Prepayment Amount; provided that, to the fullest extent possible, the parties shall offset the Note Prepayment Amount against the Redemption Repurchase Price and Overstock shall pay to First New York at the closing of the Redemption Right transaction any remaining portion of the Redemption Repurchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated by First New York.

Any amounts required to be paid by the parties hereunder shall be paid to the other party by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account of such party listed on Exhibit G.
(i) Default on Cryptodebt. If Overstock shall fail to pay the principal amount of the Cryptodebt, any accrued interest thereon, or any premium due thereon in connection with any exercise of the Redemption Right on the date any such payment is due or within three Business Days after any such due date, then First New York may proceed to protect and enforce its rights by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or otherwise.
(j) Default on Promissory Note. If First New York shall fail to pay the principal amount of the Promissory Note or any accrued interest thereon on the date any such payment is due or within three Business Days after any such due date, then Overstock may proceed to protect and enforce its rights by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate
proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or in the Promissory Note or otherwise.
