Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent that the Holders right to the Exchange Common Shares would result in the Holder and its other Attribution Parties exceeding 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (the Maximum Percentage), then the Holder shall not be entitled to such Exchange Common Shares to such extent (and shall not be entitled to beneficial ownership of such Exchange Common Shares to such extent) and the portion of such Exchange Common Shares shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time or times as its right thereto would not result in the Holder and its other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the Holder shall be granted such Exchange Common Shares to the same extent as if there had been no such limitation (the Blocker Provision). At such time or times the Holder and its other Attribution Parties no longer exceed the Maximum Percentage, the Holder shall give a written notice to the Company setting forth how many Exchange Common Shares the Company shall issue to the Holder without resulting in the Holder and its Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage.

(c) Title.
i) | The Holder is the beneficial owner and sole legal owner of, and has good and valid title to, the Warrants, free and clear of any mortgage, lien, pledge, charge, security interest, encumbrance, title retention agreement, option, equity or other adverse claim thereto other than encumbrances by one or more brokers of the Holder, which shall terminate upon the Closing, and encumbrances under federal or state securities laws (Claims).

(d) No Public Sale or Distribution. The Holder is acquiring the Exchange Common Shares and the Exchange Note for its own account and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the 1933 Act; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, the Holder does not agree to hold any of the Exchange Common Shares or the Exchange Note for any minimum or other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of the Exchange Common Shares and the Exchange Note at any time in accordance with or pursuant to a registration statement or an exemption under the 1933 Act.
(e) Risk. The Holder understands and accepts that acquiring the Exchange Common Shares and the Exchange Note involves risks including, but not limited to, risks described in the Companys reports filed with the SEC. The Holder has such knowledge, skill and experience in business, financial and investment matters that the Holder is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of participating in the Exchange. With the assistance of the Holders own professional advisors, to the extent that the Holder has deemed appropriate, the Holder has made its own legal, tax, accounting and financial evaluation of the merits and risks of the Exchange. The Holder has considered the suitability of the Exchange Common Shares and the Exchange Note as an investment in light of its own circumstances and financial condition, and the Holder is able to bear the risks associated with the Exchange.
(f) Non-Reliance. The Holder confirms that it is not relying on any communication (written or oral) of the Company or any of its agents or affiliates as investment advice or as a recommendation to enter into the Exchange. It is understood that information provided by the Company or any of its agents or affiliates shall not be considered investment advice or a recommendation, and that none of the Company or any of its agents or affiliates is acting or has acted as an advisor to the Holder in deciding whether to enter in to the Exchange. The Holder is not relying, and has not relied, upon any statement, advice (whether accounting, tax, financial, legal or other), representation or warranty made by the Company or any of its affiliates or representatives, except for the representations and warranties made by the Company in this Agreement. The Holder confirms that, except as expressly set forth herein, the Company has not (1) given any guarantee or representation as to the potential success, return, effect or benefit (either legal, regulatory, tax, financial, accounting or otherwise) of an investment in the Exchange Common Shares or the Exchange Note; or (2) made any representation to the Holder regarding the legality of an investment in the Exchange Common Shares or the Exchange Note under applicable investment guidelines, laws or regulations. In deciding to enter in to the Exchange, the Holder is not relying on the advice or recommendations of the Company, and the Holder has made its own independent decision that the investment in the Exchange Common Shares or the Exchange Note is suitable and appropriate for the Holder.
- 5 -
(g) Access to Information. The Holder has had access to all materials it deems necessary to enable it to make an informed investment decision concerning the Exchange and has had the opportunity to review the Companys filings and submissions with the SEC, including, without limitation, all information filed or furnished pursuant to the 1934 Act (collectively, the SEC Reports). The Holder acknowledges and agrees that no statement or written material contrary to the representations expressly set forth in this Agreement has been made or given to the Holder by or on behalf of the Company. The Holder has had a full opportunity to ask questions of the Company and its representatives concerning the Company, its business, operations, financial performance, financial condition and prospects, and the terms and conditions of the transactions and has received answers thereto as the Holder deems necessary to enable it to make an informed investment decision concerning the Exchange, the Exchange Common Shares or the Exchange Note. The Holder specifically understands and acknowledges that, on the date of this Agreement and on the Closing Date, the Company may have in its possession non-public information that could be material to the market price of the Warrants and/or the Common Stock, including but not limited to non-public information related to the Companys financial and operating results for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 and the potential future financing plans of the Company, that it has not disclosed to the Holder. The Holder hereby represents and warrants that, in entering into this Agreement and consummating the transactions contemplated hereby, it does not require the disclosure of such non-public information to it by the Company in order to make an investment in the Common Stock or a disposition of the Warrants, and hereby waives all present or future claims solely to the extent arising out of or relating to the Companys failure to disclose such non-public information to the Holder. Although such non-public information may be indicative of a value of the Existing Preferred Shares and Warrants that is substantially different than the value of the Exchange Common Shares, the Exchange Note and the Exchange Cash Amount, the Holder is experienced, sophisticated and knowledgeable in trading securities of public and private companies and understands the disadvantages to which the Holder may be subject on account of the disparity of information as between the Company and the Holder, and the Holder has nonetheless deemed it appropriate and in its best interest to engage in the Exchange. The Holder understands that the Company or certain of its Representatives may repurchase, redeem, convert, exchange or otherwise acquire Existing Preferred Shares and Warrants from other holders thereof in private or public transactions at prices and on terms that may be significantly more favorable than those being received by the Holder pursuant hereto. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained in this Section 4(g) shall limit the Holders rights set forth in Section 5(n).
(h) Fairness. The Holder understands that no federal, state, local or foreign agency has passed upon the merits or risks of an investment in the Exchange Common Shares or the Exchange Note, or made any finding or determination concerning the fairness or advisability of such investment.
(i) Accredited Investor. The Holder is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the 1933 Act.

To its knowledge, the Holder did not acquire any of the Warrants, directly or indirectly, from an Affiliate of the Company. The Holder and its Affiliates collectively beneficially own and will beneficially own as of the Closing (but without giving effect to the Exchange) less than 10% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company, and immediately after giving effect to the Exchange, including, without limitation, the Blocker Provision, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock owned by the Holder and its Affiliates, together with the aggregate number of shares equal to the notional value of any long derivative transaction relating to such Common Stock to which the Holder or its Affiliate is a party (excluding derivative transactions relating to broad based indices and any interest in the Warrants), will not exceed 9.99% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company, in each case, based on the number of shares of Common Stock reported to be outstanding by the Company as set forth in Section 5(p) and, with respect to the calculation of the percentage of shares owned by the Holder out of the outstanding shares of Common Stock after giving effect to the Exchange, after giving effect to any issuance of shares of Common Stock by the Company on the Closing Date, as notified by the Company on or prior to the date hereof.
(k) Exemptions. The Holder understands that the Company is relying upon the representations and agreements contained in this Agreement for the purpose of determining whether the Holders participation in the transactions contemplated hereby meets the requirements for exemption from, or a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the 1933 Act. The Holder acknowledges that the Exchange Common Shares and the Exchange Note have not been registered under the 1933 Act.
(l) Arms-Length Dealing. The Holder acknowledges that the terms of the Exchange have been mutually negotiated between the Holder and the Company. The Holder was given a meaningful opportunity to negotiate the terms of the Exchange.

The Holder understands that, unless the Holder notifies the Company in writing to the contrary before the Closing, each of the Holders representations and warranties contained in this Agreement will be deemed to have been reaffirmed and confirmed as of the Closing Date.
(n) No Solicitation or Advertising. The Holder acknowledges that it had a sufficient amount of time to consider whether to participate in the Exchange. The Holder acknowledges that it did not become aware of the Exchange through any form of general advertising or, to its knowledge, any form of solicitation within the meaning of Rule 502 under the 1933 Act.

- 14 -
(2) | To accept an Offer, in whole or in part, the Holder must deliver a written notice to the Company prior to the end of the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Holders receipt of the Offer Notice (the Offer Period), setting forth the portion of the Holders Basic Amount that the Holder elects to purchase and, if the Holder shall elect to purchase all of its Basic Amount, the Undersubscription Amount, if any, that the Holder elects to purchase (in either case, the Notice of Acceptance). If the Basic Amounts subscribed for by all Holders are less than the total of all of the Basic Amounts, then if the Holder has set forth an Undersubscription Amount in its Notice of Acceptance it shall then be entitled to purchase, in addition to the Basic Amounts subscribed for, the Undersubscription Amount it has subscribed for; provided, however, that if the Undersubscription Amounts subscribed for exceed the difference between the total of all the Basic Amounts and the Basic Amounts subscribed for (the Available Undersubscription Amount), if the Holder has subscribed for any Undersubscription Amount it shall be entitled to purchase only that portion of the Available Undersubscription Amount as the Basic Amount of the Holder bears to the total Basic Amounts of all Holders that have subscribed for Undersubscription Amounts, subject to rounding by the Company to the extent its deems reasonably necessary. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Company desires to modify or amend the terms and conditions of the Offer, in any material respect, prior to the expiration of the Offer Period, the Company may deliver to the Holder a new Offer Notice and the Offer Period shall expire on the second (2nd) Business Day after the Holders receipt of such new Offer Notice. |

- 15 -
(4) | In the event the Company shall propose to sell less than all the Refused Securities (any such sale to be in the manner and on the terms specified in Section 5(m)(iv) (3) above), then the Holder may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, reduce the number or amount of the Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance to an amount that shall be not less than the number or amount of the Offered Securities that the Holder elected to purchase pursuant to Section 5(m)(iv)(2) above multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the number or amount of Offered Securities the Company actually proposes to issue, sell or exchange (including Offered Securities to be issued or sold to the Holder pursuant to Section 5(m)(iv)(3) above prior to such reduction) and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the original amount of the Offered Securities. In the event that the Holder so elects to reduce the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance, the Company may not issue, sell or exchange more than the reduced number or amount of the Offered Securities unless and until such securities have again been offered to the Holder in accordance with Section 5(m)(iv)(1) above. |
(5) | Upon the closing of the issuance, sale or exchange of all or less than all of the Refused Securities, the Holder shall acquire from the Company, and the Company shall issue to the Holder, the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in the Notices of Acceptance, as reduced pursuant to Section 5(m)(iv)(4) above if the Holder have so elected, upon the terms and conditions specified in the Offer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if the Company does not consummate the closing of the issuance, sale or exchange of all or less than all of the Refused Securities, within fifteen (15) Business Days of the expiration of the Offer Period, the Company shall issue to the Holder, the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in the Notice of Acceptance, as reduced pursuant to Section 5(m)(iv)(4) above if the Holder has so elected, upon the terms and conditions specified in the Offer. |
The purchase by the Holder of any Offered Securities is subject in all cases to the preparation, execution and delivery by the Company and the Holder of a purchase agreement relating to such Offered Securities reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder and its counsel; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, this paragraph shall not create any obligation on the Company to amend or modify, or seek to amend or modify, any of the terms or provisions of the Subsequent Placement Agreement, or otherwise prohibit the Company from consummating the respective Subsequent Placement of Refused Securities in accordance with the applicable Subsequent Placement Agreement.
- 16 -
(6) | Any Offered Securities not acquired by the Holder or other persons in accordance with Section 5(m)(iv)(3) above may not be issued, sold or exchanged until they are again offered to the Holder under the procedures specified in this Section 5(m)(iv). |
(7) | The Company and the Holder agree that if the Holder elects to participate in an Offer, (x) neither the purchase agreement with respect to such Offer nor any other transaction documents related thereto, in each case, that are binding on the Holder, shall include any term or provisions whereby the Holder shall be required to agree to any restrictions in trading as to any securities of the Company owned by the Holder prior to such Subsequent Placement and (y) the Holder shall be entitled to the same registration rights provided to other investors in such Subsequent Placement. |
(8) | Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5(m) and unless otherwise agreed to by the Holder, the Company shall either confirm in writing to the Holder that the transaction with respect to the Subsequent Placement has been abandoned or shall publicly disclose its intention to issue the Offered Securities, in either case in such a manner such that the Holder will not be in possession of material non-public information, by the fifteenth (15th) Business Day following delivery of the Offer Notice. If by the fifteenth (15th) Business Day following delivery of the Offer Notice no public disclosure regarding a transaction with respect to the Offered Securities has been made, and no notice regarding the abandonment of such transaction has been received by the Holder, such transaction shall be deemed to have been abandoned and the Holder shall not be deemed to be in possession of any material, non-public information with respect to the Company. Should the Company decide to pursue such transaction with respect to the Offered Securities, the Company shall provide the Holder with another Offer Notice and the Holder will again have the right of participation set forth in this Section 5(m)(iv). The Company shall not be permitted to deliver more than two such Offer Notices to the Holder in any 90-day period (other than the Offer Notices contemplated by the last sentence of Section 5(m)(iv)(2) of this Agreement) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall delivery of any notice in accordance with the requirements of this Section 5(m) constitute or be deemed to constitute a breach of the Companys obligation not to provide material non-public information regarding the Company to the Holder or any other Person; provided the Company then complies with the applicable requirement to publicly disclose such material, nonpublic information pursuant to this Section 5(m)(iii). |
- 17 -
(i) | This Section 5(m) shall not apply in connection with the issuance of any Excluded Securities. |
(ii) | The right of participation granted to the Holder in this Section 5(m) may be assigned in whole or in part by the Holder without the consent of the Company to an affiliated fund of the Holder. |
(n) Most Favored Nation. The Company hereby represents and warrants as of the date hereof that none of the terms offered to any Person relating to the exchange of any Warrants and any subsequent amendment thereto (each an Exchange Document), is or will be more favorable to such Person than those of the Holder and this Agreement (other than the reimbursement of legal fees); provided, however, that for the purpose of this Section 5(n) the terms offered to any Person in an Exchange Document shall be evaluated in their entirety and be compared to the terms offered to the Holder pursuant to this Agreement in their entirety. If, and whenever on or after the date hereof, the Company enters into an Exchange Document, then the Company shall provide written notice (the Exchange Document Notice) thereof to the Holder promptly following the occurrence thereof. The Holder shall have five (5) Business Days from the receipt of an Exchange Document Notice to elect to get the benefit of, and be subject to, all of the rights and obligations under the related Exchange Document. In the event of any such election by the Holder, the aggregate consideration payable by the Company to the Holder (x) shall equal (i) the aggregate consideration payable in respect of the exchange of the Warrants pursuant to such Exchange Document, minus the aggregate consideration paid to the Holder under this Agreement (the consideration to the Holder, for the avoidance of doubt, is $958,800), and (y) shall be payable in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds unless the Company and the Holder shall mutually agree in writing upon the issuance of shares of Common Stock in whole or in part in lieu thereof. For purposes of this Section 5(n), any shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to an Exchange Document or the Holders election hereunder will be valued at 82% of the arithmetic average of the Weighted Average Prices (as defined in the Exchange Note) for the three (3) Trading Days immediately preceding the entry into such Exchange Agreement. In the event that the Holder shall not deliver a written notice to the Company electing to receive the benefits of this Section 5(n) on or prior to the fifth (5th) Business Day after the delivery of an Exchange Document Notice by the Company, then the Holders rights with respect to the applicable Exchange Document shall terminate and be of no further force and effect. The provisions of this Section 5(n) shall apply similarly and equally to each Exchange Document.

(ii) Registration; Book-Entry. The Company shall maintain a register (the Register) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the holders of each Note and the Principal amount of the Notes (and stated interest thereon) held by such holders (the Registered Notes), which shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The Company and the holders of the Notes shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of a Note for all purposes, including, without limitation, the right to receive payments of Principal and Interest, if any, hereunder, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. A Registered Note may be assigned or sold in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register. Upon its receipt of a request to assign or sell all or part of any Registered Note by a Holder, the Company shall record the information contained therein in the Register and issue one or more new Registered Notes in the same aggregate Principal amount as the Principal amount of the surrendered Registered Note to the designated assignee or transferee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3(c)(ii), the Holder may assign any Note or any portion thereof to an Affiliate of the Holder or a Related Fund of the Holder without delivering a request to assign or sell such Note to the Company and the recordation of such assignment or sale in the Register (a Related Party Assignment); provided, that (x) the Company may continue to deal solely with such assigning or selling Holder unless and until the Holder has delivered a request to assign or sell such Note or portion thereof to the Company for recordation in the Register; (y) the failure of such assigning or selling Holder to deliver a request to assign or sell such Note or portion thereof to the Company shall not affect the legality, validity, or binding effect of such assignment or sale and (z) such assigning or selling Holder shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Company, maintain a register (the Related Party Register) comparable to the Register on behalf of the Company, and any such assignment or sale shall be effective upon recordation of such assignment or sale in the Related Party Register. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of any portion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company, but any portion of this Note with respect to which the Holder submitted a Conversion Notice and the Company delivered to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled to upon such conversion in accordance with this Section 3 shall be terminated and be of no further force or effect. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the Principal and Interest, if any, converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon conversion.

(d) Limitations on Conversions.
(i) Beneficial Ownership. The Company shall not effect the conversion of any portion of this Note, and the Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Note, to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion, the Holder together with the other Attribution Parties collectively would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (the Maximum Percentage) of the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and the other Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock held by the Holder and all other Attribution Parties plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, nonconverted portion of this Note beneficially owned by the Holder or any of the other Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preferred stock or warrants) beneficially owned by the Holder or any other Attribution Party subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section 3(d)(i). For purposes of this Section 3(d)(i), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). For purposes of determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock the Holder may acquire upon the conversion of the Note without exceeding the Maximum Percentage, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (i) the Companys most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (iii) any other written notice by the Company or the Companys transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (the Reported Outstanding Share Number). If the Company receives a Conversion Notice from a Holder at a time when the actual number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the Company shall notify the Holder in writing of the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding and, to the extent that such Conversion Notice would otherwise cause the Holders beneficial ownership, as determined pursuant to this Section 3(d)(i), to exceed the Maximum Percentage, the Holder must notify the Company of a reduced number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased pursuant to such Conversion Notice. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within one (1) 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 and any other Attribution Party since the date as of which the Reported Outstanding Share Number was reported. In the event that the issuance of shares of Common Stock to the Holder upon conversion of this Note results in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties being deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, more than the Maximum Percentage of the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock (as determined under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act), the number of shares so issued by which the Holders and the other Attribution Parties aggregate beneficial ownership exceeds the Maximum Percentage (the Excess Shares) shall be deemed null and void and shall be cancelled ab initio, and the Holder shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the Excess Shares. Upon delivery of a written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 4.99% as specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase in the Maximum Percentage will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and the other Attribution Parties and not to any other Holder of Notes that is not an Attribution Party of the Holder. For purposes of clarity, the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of this Note in excess of the Maximum Percentage shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Holder for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) or Rule 16a-1(a)(1) of the Exchange Act. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 3(d)(i) to the extent necessary to correct this paragraph (or any portion of this paragraph) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation contained in this Section 3(d)(i) or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitation contained in this paragraph may not be waived and shall apply to a successor holder of this Note.
- 4 -
(ii) Principal Market Regulation. The Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock pursuant to the terms of this Note, and the Holder shall not have the right to receive pursuant to the terms of this Note any shares of Common Stock, to the extent the issuance of such shares of Common Stock, combined with all shares of Common Stock previously issued pursuant to the Exchange Agreement and all Exchange Documents (as defined in the Exchange Agreement), if any, would exceed 6,953,464 shares of Common Stock (as adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, reclassification or similar transaction occurring after the Issuance Date) (the Exchange Cap), except that such limitation shall not apply in the event that the Company obtains the approval of its shareholders as required by the applicable rules of the Principal Market for issuances of Common Stock in excess of such amount. Until such approval is obtained, no Holder of Notes shall be issued in the aggregate, pursuant to the terms of this Note and the Other Notes, shares of Common Stock in an amount greater than the product of the Exchange Cap multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the principal amount of this Note issued to the Holder pursuant to the Exchange Agreement on the Exchange Date and the denominator of which is the aggregate principal amount of this Note and the Other Notes issued to the Holder and the Other Holders pursuant to the Exchange Agreement and the Other Exchange Agreements as of the applicable date of determination (with respect to each such holder, the Exchange Cap Allocation). In the event that any Holder shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such Holders Notes, the transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such Holders Exchange Cap Allocation, and the restrictions of the prior sentence shall apply to such transferee with respect to the portion of the Exchange Cap Allocation allocated to such transferee. In the event that any Holder of Notes shall convert all of such holders Notes into a number of shares of Common Stock which, in the aggregate, is less than such holders Exchange Cap Allocation, then the difference between such holders Exchange Cap Allocation and the number of shares of Common Stock actually issued to such holder shall be allocated to the respective Exchange Cap Allocations of the remaining holders of Notes on a pro rata basis in proportion to the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then held by each such holder. In the event that the Company is prohibited from issuing any shares of Common Stock for which a Conversion Notice has been received as a result of the operation of this Section 3(d)(ii), the Company shall pay to the Holder within three (3) Trading Days of the applicable attempted conversion, cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to written wire instructions delivered by the Holder to the Company in an amount per share of Common Stock that would have been issuable upon such conversion if this Section 3(d)(ii) were not in effect: (x) in the event the Holder delivers a Conversion Notice to the Company before 4:00:00 p.m., New York time (or such other time as the Principal Market or other applicable Eligible Market publicly announces is the official close of trading) on any given Trading Day, the applicable Exchange Cap Weighted Average Price of the Common Stock for the applicable Exchange Cap Period on the date of the Holders attempted conversion and (y) in the event the Holder delivers a Conversion Notice to the Company on or after 4:00:00 p.m., New York time (or such other time as the Principal Market or other applicable Eligible Market publicly announces is the official close of trading) on any given Trading Day, the Weighted Average Price of the Common Stock on the date of the Holders attempted conversion.
- 5 -
(4) RESERVATION OF AUTHORIZED SHARES. The Company shall reserve out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock a number of shares of Common Stock for this Note equal to 150% of the Conversion Rate with respect to the Conversion Amount of this Note as of the Issuance Date. So long as any portion of this Note is outstanding, the Company shall take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of this Note, 150% of the number of shares of Common Stock specified in this Section 4 as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the conversion of all of the Notes then outstanding.
(5) RIGHTS UPON ISSUANCE OF OTHER SECURITIES.
(a) Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any time on or after the Exchange Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. If the Company at any time on or after the Exchange Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased.
(b) Event of Default Conversion Price. At any time from and after the occurrence of an Event of Default and continuing after such occurrence until the date that is one (1) Trading Days immediately following the date such Event of Default is cured or waived in writing by the Holder (such period, an Event of Default Conversion Period), the Holder may at any time and from time to time, at the Holders option, deliver one or more Conversion Notices to the Company indicating the Holders election to convert (each, an Event of Default Conversion, and the date of such Event of Default Conversion, each, an Event of Default Conversion Date) all, or any part of, the Conversion Amount then outstanding hereunder (such portion of the Conversion Amount subject to such Event of Default Conversion, the Event of Default Conversion Amount) into shares of Common Stock at the applicable Event of Default Conversion Price in lieu of the Conversion Price then in effect. On any Event of Default Conversion Date, the Holder may voluntarily convert any Event of Default Conversion Amount pursuant to Section 3(c) (with Event of Default Conversion Price replacing Conversion Price for all purposes hereunder with respect to such Event of Default Conversion) by designating in the Conversion Notice delivered pursuant to this Section 5(b) that the Holder is electing to use the Event of Default Conversion Price for such conversion according to this Section 5(b) by checking the box Event of Default Conversion Price on the applicable Conversion Notice. The Company shall be required to honor such Event of Default Conversions by delivering shares of Common Stock on or prior to the applicable Share Delivery Date pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in Section 3(c), but based on a Conversion Price equal to the Event of Default Conversion Price. In the event an Event of Default Conversion Floor Price Condition occurs, the Company shall deliver to the Holder, in addition to the shares of Common Stock due to the Holder upon such Event of Default Conversion, the applicable Event of Default Conversion Cash Amount to be delivered to the Holder by wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to wire instructions delivered to the Company by the Holder in writing.

(6) RIGHTS UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT.
(a) Event of Default. Each of the following events shall constitute an Event of Default:
(i) at any time following the fifth (5th) consecutive Business Day that the Holders Authorized Share Allocation is less than 150% of the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock that the Holder would be entitled to receive upon a conversion of the full Conversion Amount of this Note (without regard to any limitations on conversion set forth in Section 3(d) or otherwise);
(ii) the Companys failure to pay to the Holder any amount of Principal, Interest, any redemption or other amounts when and as due under this Note, except, in the case of a failure to pay Interest when and as due, in which case only if such failure continues for a period of at least an aggregate of five (5) Business Days;
(iii) the Company or any of its subsidiaries, pursuant to or within the meaning of Title 11, U.S. Code, or any similar Federal, foreign or state law for the relief of debtors (collectively, Bankruptcy Law), (A) commences a voluntary case, (B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case, (C) consents to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator or similar official (a Custodian), (D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors or (E) admits in writing that it is generally unable to pay its debts as they become due;

(b) Redemption Right. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to this Note or any Other Note, the Company shall within one (1) Business Day deliver written notice thereof via facsimile or electronic mail and overnight courier (an Event of Default Notice) to the Holder. At any time after the earlier of the Holders receipt of an Event of Default Notice and the Holder becoming aware of an Event of Default, the Holder may require the Company to redeem (an Event of Default Redemption) all or any portion of this Note by delivering written notice thereof (the Event of Default Redemption Notice) to the Company, which Event of Default Redemption Notice shall indicate the portion of this Note the Holder is electing to require the Company to redeem. Each portion of this Note subject to redemption by the Company pursuant to this Section 6(b) shall be redeemed by the Company in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds at a price equal to: (i) with respect to an Event of Default Redemption related to an Event of Default described in Section 6(a)(i) or Section 6(a)(v) as it relates to the Companys failure to deliver the required number of shares of Common Stock on the applicable Share Delivery Date, the greater of (x) 112% of the Conversion Amount being redeemed and (y) the product of (A) the Conversion Amount being redeemed and (B) the quotient determined by dividing (I) the greatest Closing Sale Price of the shares of Common Stock during the period beginning on the date immediately preceding such Event of Default and ending on the date the Holder delivers the Event of Default Redemption Notice, by (II) the lowest Event of Default Conversion Price in effect during such period and (ii) with respect to an Event of Default Redemption related to any other Event of Default, 112% of the Conversion Amount being redeemed (the Event of Default Redemption Price). To the extent redemptions required by this Section 6(b) are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of the Note by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6, but subject to Section 3(d), until the Event of Default Redemption Price (together with any interest thereon) is paid in full, the Conversion Amount submitted for redemption under this Section 6(b) (together with any interest thereon) may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Common Stock pursuant to Section 3 and Section 5(b). The parties hereto agree that in the event of the Companys redemption of any portion of the Note under this Section 6(b), the Holders damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any Event of Default redemption premium due under this Section 6(b) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holders actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty. Receipt of the Event of Default Redemption Price by the Holder shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Holder with respect to the portion of this Note so redeemed in connection with an Event of Default hereunder.
(7) NONCIRCUMVENTION. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Note, and will at all times in good faith carry out all of the provisions of this Note and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder of this Note.

The Company hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, 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 any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or operate to preclude the Holder from bringing suit or taking other legal action against the Company in any other jurisdiction to collect on the Companys obligations to the Holder, to realize on any collateral or any other security for such obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of the Holder. THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS NOTE OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

(12) SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Note is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Note so long as this Note as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties.
