on the Original Issue Date until payment in full of the outstanding
principal, together with all accrued and unpaid interest,
liquidated damages and other amounts which may become due
hereunder, has been made. Interest shall cease to accrue with
respect to any principal amount converted, provided that, the

period required by Section 4(c)(ii) herein. Interest hereunder will
be paid to the Person in whose name this Note is registered on the
records of the Company regarding registration and transfers of this
Note (the “Note Register”).

overdue accrued and unpaid interest to be paid hereunder shall

per annum or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law (the

Fees”) which shall accrue daily from the date such

notice to the Holder (an
“Optional Redemption
Notice” and the date such

Optional Redemption Amount on the 20th
calendar day following the Optional
Redemption Notice Date (such date, the “Optional Redemption
Date”, such 20 day period, the “Optional Redemption
Period” and such
redemption, the “Optional
Redemption”). The
Optional Redemption Amount is payable in full on the Optional
Redemption Date. The Company may only effect an Optional Redemption
if each of the Equity Conditions shall have been met (unless waived
in writing by the Holder) on each Trading Day during the period
commencing on the Optional Redemption Notice Date through to the
Optional Redemption Date and through and including the date
payment of the Optional Redemption Amount is actually made in
full. If any of the Equity Conditions

Redemption Period, then the Holder may elect to nullify the
Optional Redemption Notice by notice to the Company within 3
Trading Days after the first day on which any such Equity Condition
has not been met (provided that if, by a provision of the

period shall be extended to the third Trading Day after proper
notice from the Company) in which case the Optional Redemption
Notice shall be null and void, ab initio.

Subsidiaries of Indebtedness evidenced by a Small Business

“SBA Financing
Redemption Date”), to
require the Company to use 50% of the gross proceeds received in
such SBA Financing, to the extent not prohibited under the terms of
the SBA Financing (the “SBA Financing

“SBA Financing
Redemption”). The SBA
Financing Redemption Amount payable on the SBA Financing Redemption
Date shall be paid in cash.
g) Redemption
Procedure. The Company
covenants and agrees that it will honor all Notices of Conversion
tendered from the time of delivery of the Optional Redemption
Notice or SBA Financing Notice through the date all amounts owing
thereon are due and paid in full. If any portion of the
payment pursuant to an Optional Redemption or SBA Redemption shall
not be paid by the Company by the applicable due date, Late Fees
shall accrue until such amount is paid in full. The Company’s
determination to pay an Optional Redemption or SBA Financing
Redemption in cash shall be applied ratably to all of the holders
of the then outstanding Notes based on their (or their
predecessor’s) initial purchases of Notes pursuant to the
Purchase Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein contained to
the contrary, if any portion of the Optional Redemption Amount
remains unpaid after such date, the Holder may elect, by written
notice to the Company given at any time thereafter,
to invalidate such Optional Redemption, ab initio, and, the
Company shall have no further right to exercise such Optional
Redemption.
h) True-Up.

the event that the proceeds received by the Purchaser from the sale
of all the Conversion Shares and up to 50% of the Commitment Shares
(“Hurdle
Shares”) does not equal
at least $750,000 (the “Hurdle
Return”) on June 1, 2021
(the “True-Up Payment
Date”), the Company shall
pay the Purchasers their pro rata portion of an amount in cash (the
“True-Up
Payment”) equal to the
Hurdle Return less the proceeds previously realized by the
Purchaser from the sale of the Hurdle Shares, net of brokerage
commissions and any other fees incurred by Purchaser in connection
with the sale of any Hurdle Shares (“Net
Proceeds”).
2. The
True-Up Payment will be paid by the Company on first Business Day
after the True-Up Payment Date to such account(s) as the Purchasers
shall provide to the Company in writing. If any portion of the
True-Up Payment has not been paid by the Company on the date set
forth in this Section, interest shall accrue on such unpaid amount
until such amount is paid in full equal to Late Fees.
Section
3. Registration
of Transfers and Exchanges.
a) Different Denominations. This
Note is exchangeable for an equal aggregate principal amount of
Notes of different authorized denominations, as requested by the
Holder surrendering the same. No service charge will be payable for
such registration of transfer or exchange.
b) Investment Representations.
This Note has been issued subject to certain investment
representations of the original Holder set forth in the Purchase
Agreement and may be transferred or exchanged only in compliance
with the Purchase Agreement and applicable federal and state
securities laws and regulations.
c) Reliance on Note Register.
Prior to due presentment for transfer to the Company of this Note,
the Company and any agent of the Company may treat the Person in
whose name this Note is duly registered on the Note Register as the
owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment as herein
provided and for all other purposes, whether or not this Note is
overdue, and neither the Company nor any such agent shall be
affected by notice to the contrary.
Section
4. Conversion.
a) At any time after
the Original Issue Date until this Note is no longer outstanding,
this Note shall be convertible, in whole or in part, into shares of
Common Stock at the option of the Holder, at any time and from time
to time (subject to the conversion limitations set forth in
Section 4(d) hereof). The Holder shall effect conversions by
delivering to the Company a Notice of Conversion, the form of which
is attached hereto as Annex A (each, a
“Notice of
Conversion”), specifying therein the principal amount
of this Note 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.
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 two Business Days of delivery of such
Notice of Conversion. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy,
the records of the Company shall be controlling and determinative
in the absence of manifest error. 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.
b) Conversion Price. The
conversion price in effect on any Conversion Date shall be equal to
$0.25 after the Reverse Stock Split, subject to adjustment herein
(the “Conversion
Price”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time
during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Conversion
Price in effect shall be equal to the Alternate Conversion Price.
If at any time the Conversion Price as determined hereunder for any
conversion would be less than the par value of the Common Stock,
then at the sole discretion of the Holder, the Conversion Price
hereunder may equal such par value for such conversion and the
Conversion Amount for such conversion may be increased to include
Additional Principal, where “Additional Principal”
means such additional amount to be added to the Principal Amount to
the extent necessary to cause the number of conversion shares
issuable upon such conversion to equal the same number of
conversion shares as would have been issued had the Conversion
Price not been adjusted by the Holder to the par value price. In
the event the Borrower has a DTC “Chill” on its shares,
the Holder may convert the Note at the Alternate Conversion Price
while that “Chill” is in effect. All such
determinations to be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend,
stock split, stock combination, reclassification or similar
transaction that proportionately decreases or increases the Common
Stock during such measuring period.
c) Mechanics of
Conversion.
i. Conversion Shares Issuable Upon
Conversion of Principal Amount. The number of Conversion
Shares issuable upon a conversion hereunder shall be determined by
the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding principal
amount of this Note to be converted by (y) the Conversion
Price.
ii. Delivery of Certificate Upon
Conversion. Not later than three Trading Days after each
Conversion Date (the “Share Delivery Date”),
the Company shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Holder
(A) a certificate or certificates representing the Conversion
Shares representing the number of Conversion Shares being acquired
upon the conversion of this Note and (B) a bank check in the amount
of accrued and unpaid interest (if the Purchaser has elected or is
required to pay accrued interest in cash).
iii. Failure
to Deliver Certificates. If, in the case of any Notice of
Conversion, such certificate or certificates are not delivered to
or as directed by the applicable Holder by the Share Delivery Date,
the Holder shall be entitled to elect by written notice to the
Company at any time on or before its receipt of such certificate or
certificates, to rescind such Conversion, in which event the
Company shall promptly return to the Holder any original Note
delivered to the Company and the Holder shall promptly return to
the Company the Common Stock certificates issued to such Holder
pursuant to the rescinded Conversion Notice.
iv. Obligation Absolute; Partial
Liquidated Damages. The Company’s obligations to issue
and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion of this Note in
accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional,
irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the
same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof,
the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to
enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment,
limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the
Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any
violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other
Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might
otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in
connection with the issuance of such Conversion Shares;
provided,
however, that such
delivery shall not operate as a waiver by the Company of any such
action the Company may have against the Holder. If the Company
fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate or
certificates pursuant to Section 4(c)(ii) by the Share Delivery
Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated
damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of principal amount
being converted $5 per Trading Day (increasing to $10 per Trading
Day on the fifth (5th)
Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each
Trading Day after such Share Delivery Date until such certificates
are delivered or Holder rescinds such conversion. Nothing herein
shall limit a Xxxxxx’s right to pursue actual damages or
declare an Event of Default pursuant to Section 6 hereof for
the Company’s failure to deliver Conversion Shares within the
period specified herein and the Holder shall have the right to
pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity
including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance
and/or injunctive relief. The exercise of any such rights shall not
prohibit the Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any
other Section hereof or under applicable law.
v. Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to
Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Conversion. In addition to
any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails for
any reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate or
certificates by the Share Delivery Date pursuant to Section
4(c)(ii), and if after such Share Delivery Date the Holder is
required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in an open market
transaction or otherwise), or the Holder’s brokerage firm
otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in
satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Conversion Shares which
the Holder was entitled to receive upon the conversion relating to
such Share Delivery Date (a “Buy-In”), then the
Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder (in addition to any
other remedies available to or elected by the Holder) the amount,
if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price
(including any brokerage commissions) for the Common Stock so
purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1) the aggregate number of
shares of Common Stock that the Holder was entitled to receive from
the conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the actual sale price at
which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was
executed (including any brokerage commissions) and (B) at the
option of the Holder, either reissue (if surrendered) this Note in
a principal amount equal to the principal amount of the attempted
conversion (in which case such conversion shall be deemed
rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common
Stock that would have been issued if the Company had timely
complied with its delivery requirements under Section 4(c)(ii). For
example, if the Holder
purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to
cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of this Note
with respect to which the actual sale price of the Conversion
Shares (including any brokerage commissions) giving rise to such
purchase obligation was a total of $10,000 under clause (A) of the
immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall be required to
pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written
notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of
the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount
of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Xxxxxx’s right to
pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in
equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific
performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the
Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing
shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note as required
pursuant to the terms hereof.
vi. Reservation of Shares Issuable Upon
Conversion. The Company covenants that it will at all times
after the consummation of the Reverse Stock Split reserve and keep
available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock
a number of shares of Common Stock at least equal to 100% of the
Required Minimum (to be adjusted monthly) for the sole purpose of
issuance upon conversion of this Note and payment of interest on
this Note, each as herein provided, free from preemptive rights or any other actual
contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the Holder (and
the other holders of the Note), not less than such aggregate number
of shares of the Common Stock as shall (subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement) be issuable (taking
into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 5) upon the
conversion of the then outstanding principal amount of this Note
and payment of interest hereunder. The Company covenants that all
shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue,
be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable.
vii. Fractional
Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing
fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of this Note.
As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be
entitled to purchase upon such conversion, the Company shall at its
election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final
fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the
Conversion Price or round up to the next whole share.
viii. Transfer
Taxes and Expenses. The issuance of certificates for shares
of the Common Stock on conversion of this Note shall be made
without charge to the Holder hereof for any documentary stamp or
similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or
delivery of such certificates, provided that, the Company 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 such
certificate upon conversion in a name other than that of the Holder
of this Note so converted and the Company shall not be required to
issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the Person or
Persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the
Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the
satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid. The
Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day
processing of any Notice of Conversion.
d) Xxxxxx’s
Conversion Limitations. The Company shall not effect any
conversion of this Note, and a Holder shall not have the right to
convert any portion of this Note, to the extent that after giving
effect to the conversion set forth on the applicable Notice of
Conversion, the Holder (together with the Holder’s
Affiliates, and any Persons acting as a group together with the
Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates) (such Persons,
“Attribution
Parties”)) would beneficially own in excess of the
Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For
purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common
Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and
Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note with respect to which
such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of
shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (i) conversion of
the remaining, unconverted principal amount of this Note
beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or
Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the
unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the
Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous
to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder
or any of its Affiliates. Except as set forth in the
preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 4(d), beneficial
ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d)
of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder. To the extent that the limitation contained in this
Section 4(d)
applies, the determination of whether this Note is convertible (in
relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any
Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which principal amount
of this Note is convertible shall be in the sole discretion of the
Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Conversion shall be
deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Note
may be converted (in relation to other securities owned by the
Holder together with any Affiliates) and which principal amount of
this Note is convertible, in each case subject to the Beneficial
Ownership Limitation. To ensure compliance with this restriction,
the Holder will be deemed to represent to the Company each time it
delivers a Notice of Conversion that such Notice of Conversion has
not violated the restrictions set forth in this paragraph and the
Company shall have no obligation to
verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination.
In addition, a determination as to any group
status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with
Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this
Section 4(d),
in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock,
the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common
Stock as stated in the most recent of the following: (i) the
Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with
the Commission, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public
announcement by the Company, or (iii) a more recent written notice
by the Company or the Company’s transfer agent setting forth
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the
written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within one
Trading Day confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number
of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the
number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined
after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of
the Company, including this Note, by the Holder or its Affiliates
or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The
“Beneficial
Ownership Limitation” shall be 9.99% of the number of
shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving
effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of this Note held by the Holder. The Holder may increase
or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this
Section 4(d), provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in
no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock
outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of
shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note held by the
Holder and the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this
Section 4(d) shall continue to apply. Any increase in the
Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the
61st day
after such notice is delivered to the Company. The Beneficial
Ownership Limitation provisions of this paragraph shall be
construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict
conformity with the terms of this Section 4(d) to correct
this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or
inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation
contained herein or to make changes or
supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such
limitation. The limitations
contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of
this Note.

Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Note is
outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a
distribution or distributions payable in shares of Common Stock on
shares of Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalents (which, for
avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock
issued by the Company upon conversion of, or payment of interest
on, the Note), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of
a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
smaller number of shares or (iv) issues, in the event of a
reclassification of shares of the Common Stock, any shares of
capital stock of the Company, then the Conversion Price shall be
multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number
of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the
Company) outstanding immediately before such event, and of which
the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made
pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after
the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to
receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective
immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision,
combination or re-classification. The provisions of this Section
shall not apply upon the consummation of the Reverse Stock
Split.
b) Subsequent Equity Sales. If, at
any time while this Note is outstanding, the Company or any
Subsidiary, as applicable, sells or grants any option to purchase
or sells or grants any right to reprice, or otherwise disposes of
or issues (or announces any sale, grant or any option to purchase
or other disposition), any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents
entitling any Person to acquire shares of Common Stock at an
effective price per share that is lower than the then Conversion
Price (such lower price, the “Base Conversion Price”
and such issuances, collectively, a “Dilutive Issuance”) (if
the holder of the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents so
issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price
adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or
exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights
per share which are issued in connection with such issuance, be
entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price
per share that is lower than the Conversion Price, such issuance
shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Conversion Price
on such date of the Dilutive Issuance), then the Conversion Price
shall be reduced to equal the Base Conversion Price. Such
adjustment shall be made whenever such Common Stock or Common Stock
Equivalents are issued. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment will
be made under this Section 5(b) in respect of an Exempt
Issuance. If the Company enters into a Variable Rate
Transaction, despite the prohibition set forth in the Purchase
Agreement, the Company shall be deemed to have issued Common Stock
or Common Stock Equivalents at the lowest possible conversion price
at which such securities may be converted or exercised. The Company
shall notify the Holder in writing, no later than 1 Business Day
following the issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock
Equivalents subject to this Section 5(b), indicating therein the
applicable issuance price, or applicable reset price, exchange
price, conversion price and other pricing terms (such notice, the
“Dilutive Issuance
Notice”). For purposes of clarification, whether or
not the Company provides a Dilutive Issuance Notice pursuant to
this Section 5(b), upon the occurrence of any Dilutive Issuance,
the Holder is entitled to receive a number of Conversion Shares
based upon the Base Conversion Price on or after the date of such
Dilutive Issuance, regardless of whether the Holder accurately
refers to the Base Conversion Price in the Notice of
Conversion.
c) Subsequent Rights Offerings.
In addition to any adjustments
pursuant to Section 5(a)
above, if at any time the Company
grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to
purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to
the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the
“Purchase
Rights”), then the Holder
will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such
Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder
could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of
Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note
(without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including
without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation)
immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the
grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such
record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares
of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale
of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, to the extent that the
Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right
would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership
Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in
such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such
shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such
extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in
abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right
thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial
Ownership Limitation).
d) Pro Rata Distributions. During
such time as this Note is outstanding, if the Company shall declare
or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights
to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by way
of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation,
any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or
options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate
rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction)
(a "Distribution"),
at any time after the issuance of this Note, then, in each such
case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such
Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have
participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of
Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Note
(without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including
without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation)
immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such
Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which
the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined
for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, to the extent that the
Holder's right to participate in any such Distribution would result
in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then
the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such
Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial ownership of any
shares of Common Stock as a result of such Distribution to such
extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in
abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time, if ever, as
its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the
Beneficial Ownership Limitation).
e) Fundamental Transaction. If, at
any time while this Note is outstanding, (i) the Company effects
any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another
Person, (ii) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially
all of its assets in one transaction or a series of related
transactions, (iii) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by
the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which
holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their
shares for other securities, cash or property, or (iv) the Company
effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory
share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively
converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property
(in any such case, a “Fundamental
Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent conversion of
this Note, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each
Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion
immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental
Transaction, the same kind and amount of securities, cash or
property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the
occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been,
immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of 1
share of Common Stock (the “Alternate
Consideration”). For purposes of any such conversion,
the determination of the Conversion Price shall be appropriately
adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the
amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of 1 share of
Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall
apportion the Conversion Price among the Alternate Consideration in
a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different
components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common
Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property
to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall
be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it
receives upon any conversion of this Note following such
Fundamental Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the
foregoing provisions, any successor to the Company or surviving
entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to the Holder a
new Note consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing
the Holder’s right to convert such Note into Alternate
Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a
Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring
any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the
provisions of this Section 5(e) and insuring that this Note (or any
such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any
subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental
Transaction
f) Calculations. All calculations
under this Section 5 shall be made to
the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may
be. For purposes of this Section 5, the number of
shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a
given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock
(excluding any treasury shares of the Company) issued and
outstanding.
g) Notice to the
Holder.
i. Adjustment to Conversion Price.
Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision
of this Section 5, the Company
shall promptly deliver to each Holder a notice setting forth the
Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief
statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
ii. Notice to Allow Conversion by
Xxxxxx. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any
other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (B) the
Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a
redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Company shall authorize the
granting to all holders of the Common Stock of rights or warrants
to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any
class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the
Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification
of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the
Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially
all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange
whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash
or property or (E) the Company shall
authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or
winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the
Company shall cause to be filed at each office or agency maintained
for the purpose of conversion of this Note, and shall cause to
be delivered to the Holder at
its last address as it shall appear upon the Note Register, at
least twenty (20) calendar days prior to the applicable record or
effective date hereinafter specified (or such shorter period as is
reasonably possible, but not less than ten (10) calendar days, if
twenty (20) calendar days is not reasonably possible), a notice
stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for
the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or
warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which
the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such
dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be
determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected
to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is
expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be
entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for
securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share
exchange, provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any
defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the
validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such
notice. To the extent that any notice provided hereunder
constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information
regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall
simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a
Current Report on Form 8-K or if it is not subject to the reporting
requirements of the Commission, a press release. The Holder shall
remain entitled to convert this Note during the 20-day period
commencing on the date of such notice through the effective date of
the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be
expressly set forth herein.

impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and
unconditional, to pay the principal of, liquidated damages and
accrued interest, as applicable, on this Note at the time, place,

c) Lost or Mutilated Note. If this
Note shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company
shall execute and deliver, in exchange and substitution for and
upon cancellation of a mutilated Note, or in lieu of or in

destruction of such Note, and of the ownership hereof, reasonably
satisfactory to the Company.
d) Governing Law. All questions
concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and
interpretation of this Note shall be governed by and construed and
enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New
York, without regard to the principles of conflict of laws thereof.
Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the
interpretation, enforcement and defense of the transactions
contemplated by any of the Transaction Documents (whether brought
against a party hereto or its respective Affiliates, directors,
officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced in
the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York,
Borough of Manhattan (the “New York Courts”). Each
party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the New York Courts for the adjudication of any
dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction
contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to
the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby
irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or
proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the
jurisdiction of such New York Courts, or such New York Courts are
improper or inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party
hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents
to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by
mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or
overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the

process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be
deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other

proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Note, then the
prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed
by the other party for its attorneys' fees and other costs and
expenses incurred in the investigation, preparation and prosecution
of such action or proceeding.
e) Waiver. Any waiver by the
Company or the Holder of a breach of any provision of this Note
shall not operate as or be construed to be a waiver of any other
breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of
this Note. The failure of the Company or the Holder to insist upon
strict adherence to any term of this Note on one or more occasions
shall not be considered a waiver or deprive that party of the right
thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any
other term of this Note on any other occasion. Any waiver by the
Company or the Holder must be in writing.
f) Severability. If any provision
of this Note is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance of
this Note shall remain in effect, and if any provision is
inapplicable to any Person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless
remain applicable to all other Persons and circumstances. If it
shall be found that any interest or other amount deemed interest
due hereunder violates the applicable law governing usury, the
applicable rate of interest due hereunder shall automatically be
lowered to equal the maximum rate of interest permitted under
applicable law. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may
lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead,
or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage
of, any stay, extension or usury law or other law which would
prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of
the principal of or interest on this Note as contemplated herein,
wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which
may affect the covenants or the performance of this Note, and the
Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly
waives all benefits or advantage of any such law, and covenants
that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or
impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Holder, but
will suffer and permit the execution of every such as though no
such law has been enacted.
g) Remedies, Characterizations, Other
Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive Relief. The
remedies provided in this Note shall be cumulative and in addition
to all other remedies available under this Note and any of the
other Transaction Documents at law or in equity (including a decree
of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and
nothing herein shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue
actual and consequential damages for any failure by the Company to
comply with the terms of this Note. The Company covenants to
the Holder that there shall be no characterization concerning this
instrument other than as expressly provided herein. Amounts set
forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, conversion
and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to
be received by the Holder and shall not, except as expressly
provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Company
