FOR VALUE RECEIVED, bioMETRX, Inc., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter called "Borrower"), hereby promises to pay to _____________, with an address at ______________________ __________________________(the "Holder") or order, without demand, the sum of _______________
________________________________________________ ($_____________).

This Note is issued in lieu of the payment in cash of liquidated damages due to Holder from Borrower for the period of July 14, 2006 through March 31, 2007 (the “Liquidated Damages”), under the terms of the Subscription Agreement dated as of June 29, 2006 between the Holder and the Borrower (the “Subscription Agreement”). The Liquidated Damages shall be paid with shares of common stock received upon conversion of this Note (the “Shares”), such that the Liquidated Damages shall be deemed to be paid in full when this Note is fully converted. The following terms shall apply to this Note:

ARTICLE I
GENERAL PROVISIONS


The Holder shall have the right to convert the principal due under this Note into Shares of the Borrower's Common Stock, $.001 par value per share (“Common Stock”) as set forth below.

1.1. Conversion into the Borrower's Common Stock.

(a) The Holder shall have the right from and after the date of the issuance of this Note and then at any time until this Note is fully paid, to convert any outstanding and unpaid principal portion of this Note, at the election of the Holder (the date of giving of such notice of conversion being a "Conversion Date") into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as such stock exists on the date of issuance of this Note, or any shares of capital stock of Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified, at the conversion price as defined in Section 1.1(b) hereof (the "Conversion Price"), determined as provided herein. Upon delivery to the Borrower of a completed Notice of Conversion, a form of which is annexed hereto, Borrower shall issue and deliver to the Holder within three (3) business days from the Conversion Date (such third day being the “Delivery Date”) that number of shares of Common Stock for the portion of the Note converted in accordance with the foregoing. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing that portion of the principal of the Note to be converted, by the Conversion Price.

(b) Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 1.1(c) hereof, the Conversion Price per share shall be $1.00.
 
(c)  The Conversion Price and number and kind of shares or other securities to be issued upon conversion determined pursuant to Section 1.1(a), shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events while this conversion right remains outstanding, as follows:

A. Merger, Sale of Assets, etc. If the Borrower at any time shall consolidate with or merge into or sell or convey all or substantially all its assets to any other corporation, this Note, as to the unpaid principal portion thereof shall thereafter be deemed to evidence the right to purchase such number and kind of shares or other securities and property as would have been issuable or distributable on account of such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, upon or with respect to the securities subject to the conversion or purchase right immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance. The foregoing provision shall similarly apply to successive transactions of a similar nature by any such successor or purchaser. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the anti-dilution provisions of this Section shall apply to such securities of such successor or purchaser after any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance.

 
 

 
B. Reclassification, etc. If the Borrower at any time shall, by reclassification or otherwise, change the Common Stock into the same or a different number of securities of any class or classes that may be issued or outstanding, this Note, as to the unpaid principal portion thereof shall thereafter be deemed to evidence the right to purchase an adjusted number of such securities and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the Common Stock immediately prior to such reclassification or other change.

C. Stock Splits, Combinations and Dividends. If the shares of Common Stock are subdivided or combined into a greater or smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or if a dividend is paid on the Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately reduced in case of subdivision of shares or stock dividend or proportionately increased in the case of combination of shares, in each such case by the ratio which the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event..
 
D. Share Issuance. So long as this Note is outstanding, if the Borrower shall offer, issue or agree to issue any shares of Common Stock for a consideration less than the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such issue, then, and thereafter successively upon each such issue, the Conversion Price shall be automatically reduced to such other lower issue price. For purposes of this adjustment, the subsequent issuance of any security carrying the right to convert such security into shares of Common Stock or of any warrant, right or option to purchase Common Stock shall result in an adjustment to the Conversion Price upon the issuance of the above-described security and again upon the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of such conversion or purchase rights if such issuance is at a price lower than the then applicable Conversion Price. The reduction of the Conversion Price described in this paragraph is in addition to other rights of the Holder described in this Note.

(d) Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 1.1(c) above, the Borrower shall promptly mail or fax to the Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a statement of the facts requiring such adjustment (the “Adjustment Notice”). Notwithstanding the requirement of the Borrower to send the Adjustment Notice, the adjusted Conversion Price shall be effective immediately upon the issuance of Common Stock or securities carrying the right to convert into or purchase common stock as described in the immediately preceding paragraph regardless of whether the Borrower complies with its requirement herein to send the Adjustment Notice.

(e) During the period the conversion right exists, Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the number of shares to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note. Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Borrower agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers, agents, and transfer agents who are charged with the duty of executing and issuing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of this Note.

1.2 Method of Conversion. This Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part as described in Section 1.1(a) hereof. Upon partial conversion of this Note, a new Note containing the same date and provisions of this Note shall, at the request of the Holder, be issued by the Borrower to the Holder for the principal balance of this Note which shall not have been converted or paid.

1.3 Mandatory Conversion. Commencing after the actual effective date of the Registration Statement described in Article 3 hereunder that includes the shares underlying this Note, the Borrower will have the option by written notice to the Holder (“Notice of Mandatory Conversion”) of compelling the Holder to convert all or a portion of the outstanding and unpaid principal of the Note thereon, into Common Stock at the Conversion Price then in affect (“Mandatory Conversion”). The Notice of Mandatory Conversion, which notice must be given on the first day following a consecutive ten (10) day trading period during which the closing price for the Company’s Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg, LP for the Principal Market shall be more than $2.00 each day with an average daily volume in excess of 150,000 shares. The date the Notice of Mandatory Conversion is given is the “Mandatory Conversion Date.” The Notice of Mandatory Conversion shall specify the aggregate principal amount of the Note which is subject to Mandatory Conversion. Mandatory Conversion Notices must be given proportionately to all Holders of Notes who received Notes similar in term and tenure as this Note. The Borrower shall reduce the amount of Note principal subject to a Notice of Mandatory Conversion by the amount of Note Principal for which the Holder had delivered a Notice of Conversion to the Borrower during the twenty (20) trading days preceding the Mandatory Conversion Date. Each Mandatory Conversion Date shall be a deemed Conversion Date and the Borrower will be required to deliver the Common Stock issuable pursuant to a Mandatory Conversion Notice in the same manner and time period as described in Section 1.2 above.

1.4 Maximum Conversion. The Holder shall not be entitled to convert on a Conversion Date that amount of the Note in connection with that number of shares of Common Stock which would be in excess of the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates on a Conversion Date, (ii) any Common Stock issuable in connection with the unconverted portion of the Note, and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Note with respect to which the determination of this provision is being made on a Conversion Date, which would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Borrower on such Conversion Date. For the purposes of the provision to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder. Subject to the foregoing, the Holder shall not be limited to aggregate conversions of only 4.99% and aggregate conversion by the Holder may exceed 4.99%. The Holder shall have the authority and obligation to determine whether the restriction contained in this Section 2.3 will limit any conversion hereunder and to the extent that the Holder determines that the limitation contained in this Section applies, the determination of which portion of the Notes are convertible shall be the responsibility and obligation of the Holder. The Holder may waive the conversion limitation described in this Section 2.3, in whole or in part, upon and effective after 61 days prior written notice to the Borrower. The Holder may allocate which of the equity of the Borrower deemed beneficially owned by the Holder shall be included in the 4.99% amount described above and which shall be allocated to the excess above 4.99%.

ARTICLE II

2. Registration Rights. The registration rights granted to the Holder pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement are hereby granted to the Holder in connection with the Shares.

3.3 Failure to Provide 144 Opinion. When Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (“Rule 144”), failure by the Borrower’s counsel to provide a legal opinion authorizing the removal of the restrictive legend from such Shares and providing such opinion to the Borrower’s transfer agent in a timely manner but in no event later than three (3) business days after receiving notice of such sale.

ARTICLE IV
MISCELLANEOUS

4.1 Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver.
