7. Reservation of Shares. At all times during which any Note is convertible pursuant to the terms thereof, the Company will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of the Note. Within three (3) months from the date hereof, the Company will, as of such date and at all times thereafter, reserve at least (i) three times the number of shares of Common Stock necessary to convert the total Outstanding Balance (as defined in and determined pursuant to the Note) of the outstanding Note, (the “Share Reserve”): prior to three (3) months from the date hereof, the Company will maintain not less than 18,000,000 shares of Common Stock in the Share Reserve (the “Transfer Agent Reserve”). The Company further agrees that after one hundred eighty (180) days from the date hereof, it will cause its transfer agent to immediately add shares of Common Stock to the Transfer Agent Reserve as and when reasonably requested by the Buyer in writing from time to time, provided that such incremental increases do not cause the Transfer Agent Reserve to exceed the Share Reserve. In furtherance thereof, from and after the date hereof and until such time that the Notes have been paid in full, the Company shall require its transfer agent to reserve for the purpose of issuance to the Buyer pursuant to conversions under the Note, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Transfer Agent Reserve. The Company shall further require its transfer agent to hold such shares of Common Stock exclusively for the benefit of the Buyer and to issue such shares to the Buyer promptly upon Buyer’s delivery of a conversion notice under a Note.

9.10. Ownership Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, if at any time the Buyer shall or would be issued shares of Common Stock under any of the Transaction Documents, but such issuance would cause the Buyer (together with its affiliates) to beneficially own a number of shares exceeding the 4.9% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (the “Maximum Percentage”), then the Company must not issue to the Buyer the shares that would cause the Buyer to exceed the Maximum Percentage. For purposes of this Section, beneficial ownership of Common Stock will be determined under the 1934 Act.

Nothing herein shall restrict or impair a court’s power to award fees and expenses for frivolous or bad faith pleading. If (a) any Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or enforcement prior to commencing legal proceedings, or is collected or enforced through any legal proceeding, or Lender otherwise takes action to collect amounts due under any Note or to enforce the provisions of any Note; or (b) there occurs any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership of Borrower or other proceedings affecting Borrower’s creditors’ rights and involving a claim under any Note; then Borrower shall pay the costs incurred by Lender for such collection, enforcement or action or in connection with such bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other proceeding, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements.
