lowest price per share Probex has issued shares of Probex Common Stock after the
date hereof or at which any other securities issued after the date hereof are
then convertible into such common stock, in each case as adjusted for any stock
dividends, stock splits, recapitalizations or other similar events affecting the
Probex Common Stock; provided, however, immediately after the consummation of
the equity portion of the project financing for the construction of an initial
facility using Probex proprietary technology described in Section 10(e) of the
NPA, no further reduction of the Conversion Price shall made under this Section
3.1(ii)."
