PROMISSORY NOTE

 

DUE MAY 7, 2015

 

 

STEM CELL CAYMAN LTD., a Cayman Islands corporation (the “Company”), for value received, hereby promises to pay to WESTBURY (BERMUDA) LTD. or order (the “Holder”) on May 7, 2015 (the “Maturity Date’) at the offices of the Company, c/o Campbells, 4th Floor, Scotia Centre, Albert Panton Street, George Town, Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands, the principal sum of FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS (US$500,000) (the “Principal Sum”) and to pay interest on the entire Principal Sum at the rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum through the Maturity Date. Interest on the entire Principal Sum from the date hereof shall be payable on the Maturity Date notwithstanding any partial prepayments of the Principal Sum; provided, however, that, in the event the entire Principal Sum is prepaid in full prior to the Maturity Date, then interest on the entire Principal Sum shall only be payable through such final prepayment date.

 

1.           Registered Owner. The Company may consider and treat the person in whose name this Note shall be registered as the absolute owner thereof for all purposes whatsoever (whether or not this Note shall be overdue) and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary. Subject to the provisions hereof, the registered owner of this Note shall have the right to transfer it by assignment and the transferee thereof, upon its registration as owner of this Note, shall become vested with all the powers and rights of the transferor. Registration of any new owner shall take place upon presentation of this Note to the Company at its offices together with the Note Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed. In case of transfers by operation of law, the transferee shall notify the Company of such transfer and of its address, and shall submit appropriate evidence regarding the transfer so that this Note may be registered in the name of the transferee. This Note is transferable only on the books of the Company by the Holder on the surrender hereof, duly endorsed. Communications sent to any registered owner shall be effective as against all holders or transferees of this Note not registered at the time of sending the communication.

 

2.           Prepayment Right. The Company may, at its option, at any time and from time to time, prepay all or any part of the Principal Sum, without penalty or premium, provided that, concurrently with any prepayment of the remaining balance of the Principal Sum, the Company shall pay interest on the entire Principal Sum to the date of such final prepayment.

 

3.           Prepayment Obligation. In the event that, after the date hereof and prior to the Maturity Date, the Company’s parent, BioRestorative Therapies, Inc. (“BRT”), receives any monies from (a) Rohto Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (“Rohto”) pursuant to that certain Research and Development Agreement, dated as of March 19, 2014, between Rohto and BRT and/or (b) Pfizer Inc. (“Pfizer”) pursuant to that certain Research Agreement, dated as of March 24, 2014, between Pfizer and BRT, then, the Company shall be obligated to prepay the Principal Sum on a dollar-for-dollar basis to the extent of such monies so received from Rohto and/or Pfizer, but not to exceed the outstanding principal balance of this Note. In the event the entire outstanding principal balance of this Note is so prepaid, any monies so received from Rohto and/or Pfizer in excess of that required to pay the remaining principal balance shall be applied to the Company’s interest obligation hereunder. Any remaining interest obligation as of such final prepayment date shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.

 

 
 

 

4.           Events of Default. If the Company shall (i) fail to make any payment due hereunder and such failure shall continue unremedied for a period of fifteen (15) days following receipt of written notice thereof from the Holder; (ii) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they mature; (iii) make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (iv) be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent; (v) file a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or a petition or an answer seeking an arrangement with creditors; (vi) take advantage of any bankruptcy, insolvency or readjustment of debt law or statute or file an answer admitting the material allegations of a petition filed against it in any proceeding under any such law; (vii) apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator for all or substantially all of its assets; or (viii) have an involuntary case commenced against it under any bankruptcy law, which case is not dismissed or stayed within sixty (60) days (each an “Event of Default”), then, at any time thereafter and unless such Event of Default shall have been cured or shall have been waived in writing by the Holder, the Holder may, by written notice to the Company, declare the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon, to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the same shall become forthwith due and payable.

 

5.           Applicable Law. This Note is issued under and shall for all purposes be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Cayman Islands, excluding choice of law rules thereof.
