RECITALS
WHEREAS, on April 24, 2008,
Borrower issued a secured promissory note (the “Note”), pursuant to which it
promised to pay to the order of Holder, the principal amount of FIVE HUNDRED
FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS ($550,000), together with interest incurred thereon, as
therein provided. The Note is incorporated into this First Amendment
by this reference and all defined terms in the Note shall have the same meaning
in this First Amendment;
WHEREAS, the Note provided
that all principal and interest accrued and unpaid thereunder was due and
payable on April 24, 2009 (the “Maturity Date”);
WHEREAS, the Borrower failed
to make payment in the Maturity Date and the Borrower and Holder have determined
that it is advisable and in their best interests to amend the Note to extend the
Maturity Date and include such other additional terms, as provided
herein;
NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the foregoing and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be
legally bound hereby, the Borrower and the Holder hereby agree as
follows:
AGREEMENT
1. Incorporation
of Recitals. The Recitals set forth
above are herein incorporated into this First Amendment.
2. Amendments
to Agreement.
A. The
definition of “Maturity Date” contained in the first paragraph of the Note is
hereby amended by deleting “April 24, 2009” and inserting “July 10, 2010” in
lieu thereof.
B. The
heading directly below ARTICLE I “INTEREST, PAYMENT, SENIORITY” is hereby
amended by inserting the language “AND CONVERSION” directly after the word
“SENIORITY.”
C. A
new Section 1.5 is hereby inserted to read in its entirety as
follows:
1
“1.5 Conversion
1.5.1
Conversion of
Principal and Interest. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the
Holder, at its sole option, may deliver to the Holder a notice in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit A (a “Conversion Notice”), at any
time and from time to time after the date hereof (the date of the delivery of a
Conversion Notice, a “Conversion Date”), to convert
all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of this Note plus accrued
and unpaid interest thereon, for a number of shares (the “Shares”) of Blackhawk common
stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”) equal to the
quotient obtained by dividing the dollar amount of such outstanding principal
amount of this Note plus the accrued and unpaid interest thereon being convened
by the Conversion Price (as defined in Section 4.7). Conversions
hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding principal amount of
this Note plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereunder in an amount equal to
the applicable conversion, which shall be evidenced by entries set forth in the
Conversion Notice.
1.5.2
Certain
Conversion Limitations.
(a) The
Holder may not convert an outstanding principal amount of this Note or accrued
and unpaid interest thereon to the extent such conversion would result in the
Holder, together with any affiliate thereof, beneficially owning (as determined
in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (as defined in Section 4.7)
and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 4.999% of the then issued and
outstanding shares of Common Stock. Since the Holder will not be
obligated to report to Blackhawk the number of shares of Common Stock it may
hold at the time of a conversion hereunder, unless the conversion at issue would
result in the issuance of Shares in excess of 4.999% of the then outstanding
shares of Common Stock without regard to any other shares which may be
beneficially owned by the Holder or an affiliate thereof, the Holder shall have
the authority and obligation to determine whether and the extent to which the
restriction contained in this Section will limit any particular conversion
hereunder. The provisions of this Section may be waived by the Holder
upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to Blackhawk.
(b) The
Holder may not convert an outstanding principal amount of this Note or accrued
and unpaid interest thereon to the extent such conversion would result in the
Holder, together with any affiliate thereof, beneficially owning (as determined
in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated
thereunder) in excess of 9.999% of the then issued and outstanding shares of
Common Stock. Since the Holder will not be obligated to report to
Blackhawk the number of shares of Common Stock it may hold at the time of a
conversion hereunder, unless the conversion at issue would result in the
issuance of Shares in excess of 9.999% of the then outstanding shares of Common
Stock without regard to any other shares which may be beneficially owned by the
Holder or an affiliate thereof, the Holder shall have the authority and
obligation to determine whether and the extent to which the restriction
contained in this Section will limit any particular conversion
hereunder. The provisions of this Section may be waived by the Holder
upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to Blackhawk.
(c) The
Holder may not convert an outstanding principal amount of this Note or accrued
and unpaid interest thereon to the extent such conversion would require
Blackhawk to issue shares of Common Stock in excess of the Blackhawk’s then
sufficient authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock.”
2
D. A
new Section (m) under Article III “COVENANTS” shall be inserted to read in its
entirety as follows:
“(m) If
at any time after September 10, 2009, there is either (i) insufficient Common
Stock to permit conversions by Holder pursuant to Section 1.5 or (ii) the Per
Share Market Value is less than the then existing par value of the Common Stock
for a period of [5] consecutive Trading Days,
Blackhawk will use its best efforts to amend its capital structure by
means of either a reverse split of its Common Stock, an increase in its
authorized Common Stock or a reduction of the par value of its Common Stock, or
any combination of the foregoing as determined by Blackhawk’s board of directors
in its reasonable discretion.”
