THIS NOTE (AS DEFINED BELOW) IS ISSUED IN EXCHANGE FOR (WITHOUT ANY ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATION) that certain PROMISSORY NOTE IN THE ORIGINAL PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF $242,000.00 HAVING AN ORIGINAL ISSUE DATE OF January 3, 2017. FOR PURPOSES OF RULE 144 (AS DEFINED BELOW), THIS NOTE SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE BEEN ISSUED ON January 3, 2017.

 

CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

 

Original Issue Date”: January 3, 2017 U.S. $242,000.00

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, BioRestorative Therapies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), promises to pay to St. George Investments LLC, a Utah limited liability company, or its successors or assigns (“Lender”), $242,000.00 and any interest, fees, charges, and late fees on October 1, 2017 (the “Maturity Date”) in accordance with the terms set forth herein and to pay interest on the Outstanding Balance at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum from the Exchange Date (as defined below) until the same is paid in full. This Convertible Promissory Note (this “Note”) is issued and made effective pursuant to that certain Exchange Agreement dated as of August 2, 2017 (the “Exchange Date”), as the same may be amended from time to time, by and between Borrower and Lender (the “Exchange Agreement”), pursuant to which Lender exchanged the Original Note (as defined in the Exchange Agreement) for this Note, pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. All interest calculations hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve (12) thirty (30) day months and shall be payable in accordance with the terms of this Note. Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Attachment 1 attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. The purchase price for this Note was paid in full on the Original Issue Date in connection with the issuance of the Original Note (as defined in the Exchange Agreement).

 

1. Payment; Prepayment.

 

1.1. Payment. All payments owing hereunder shall be in lawful money of the United States of America or Conversion Shares (as defined below), as provided for herein, and delivered to Lender at the address or bank account furnished to Borrower for that purpose. All payments shall be applied first to (a) costs of collection, if any, then to (b) fees and charges, if any, then to (c) accrued and unpaid interest, and thereafter, to (d) principal.

 

1.2. Prepayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as Borrower has not received a Conversion Notice (as defined below) from Lender where the applicable Conversion Shares have not yet been delivered and so long as no Event of Default has occurred since the Effective Date (whether declared by Lender or undeclared) and is continuing, then Borrower shall have the right, exercisable on not less than five (5) Trading Days prior written notice to Lender to prepay all or any portion of the Outstanding Balance of this Note, in accordance with this Section 1. Any notice of prepayment hereunder (an “Optional Prepayment Notice”) shall be delivered to Lender at its registered address and shall state: (i) that Borrower is exercising its right to prepay this Note in whole or in part, and (ii) the date of prepayment, which shall be not less than five (5) Trading Days from the date of the Optional Prepayment Notice. On the date fixed for prepayment (the “Optional Prepayment Date”), Borrower shall make payment of the Optional Prepayment Amount (as defined below) to or upon the order of Lender as may be specified by Lender in writing to Borrower. If Borrower exercises its right to prepay this Note in whole or in part, Borrower shall make payment to Lender of an amount in cash equal to the then Outstanding Balance of this Note or the portion thereof to be prepaid (the “Optional Prepayment Amount”). In the event Borrower delivers the Optional Prepayment Amount to Lender prior to the Optional Prepayment Date or without delivering an Optional Prepayment Notice to Lender as set forth herein without Lender’s prior written consent, the Optional Prepayment Amount shall not be deemed to have been paid to Lender until the Optional Prepayment Date. In the event Borrower delivers the Optional Prepayment Amount without an Optional Prepayment Notice, then the Optional Prepayment Date will be deemed to be the date that is five (5) Trading Days from the date that the Optional Prepayment Amount was delivered to Lender and Lender shall be entitled to exercise its conversion rights set forth herein during such five (5) day period. In addition, if Borrower delivers an Optional Prepayment Notice and fails to pay the Optional Prepayment Amount due to Lender within two (2) Trading Days following the Optional Prepayment Date, Borrower shall forever forfeit its right to prepay this Note.

 

 
 

 

2. Security. This Note is unsecured.

 

3. Conversion.

 

3.1. Conversions. Lender has the right at any time after the Exchange Date until the Outstanding Balance has been paid in full, including without limitation until any Optional Prepayment Date (even if Lender has received an Optional Prepayment Notice), at its election, to convert (each instance of conversion is referred to herein as a “Conversion”) all or any part of the Outstanding Balance into shares (“Conversion Shares”) of fully paid and non-assessable common stock, $0.001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), of Borrower as per the following conversion formula: the number of Conversion Shares equals the amount being converted (the “Conversion Amount”) divided by the Conversion Price (as defined below). Conversion notices in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each, a “Conversion Notice”) may be effectively delivered to Borrower by any method of Lender’s choice (including but not limited to facsimile, email, mail, overnight courier, or personal delivery), and all Conversions shall be cashless and not require further payment from Lender. Borrower shall deliver the Conversion Shares from any Conversion to Lender in accordance with Section 9 below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Lender delivers a Conversion Notice to Borrower and the applicable Conversion Price is less than $1.00 (the “Conversion Floor”), then in such event Borrower shall be obligated to pay the Conversion Amount in cash instead of Conversion Shares within three (3) Trading Days of its receipt of such Conversion Notice.

 

3.2. Conversion Price. Subject to the adjustments set forth herein, the conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) for each Conversion shall be equal to 80% (the “Conversion Factor”) multiplied by the average of the five (5) lowest daily VWAPs in the twenty (20) Trading Days immediately preceding the applicable Conversion. Additionally, if at any time after the Effective Date, Borrower is not DWAC Eligible, then the then-current Conversion Factor will automatically be reduced by 5% for all future Conversions. If at any time after the Effective Date, the Conversion Shares are not DTC Eligible, then the then-current Conversion Factor will automatically be reduced by an additional 5% for all future Conversions. Finally, if any Event of Default occurs after the Effective Date, the Conversion Factor shall automatically be reduced for all future Conversions by an additional 5% for each of the first two (2) Events of Defaults that occur after the Effective Date (for the avoidance of doubt, each occurrence of any Events of Default shall be deemed to be a separate occurrence for purposes of the foregoing reductions in Conversion Factor, even if the same Event of Default occurs two (2) separate times). For example, the first time Borrower is not DWAC Eligible, the Conversion Factor for future Conversions thereafter will be reduced from 80% to 75% for purposes of this example. Following such event, the first time the Conversion Shares are no longer DTC Eligible, the Conversion Factor for future Conversions thereafter will be reduced from 75% to 70% for purposes of this example. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the Conversion Factor be reduced below 70%.

4. Restrictions on Sales of Conversion Shares.

 

4.1. Volume Limitation. Lender agrees that, with respect to any Conversion Shares received hereunder, in any given calendar week following the Effective Date its Net Sales (as defined below) of such Conversion Shares shall not exceed the greater of (i) $7,500.00, and (ii) ten percent (10%) of Borrower’s weekly dollar trading volume in the immediately preceding week (which, for purposes hereof, means the number of shares traded during such calendar week multiplied by the VWAP for such week) (the “10% Limitation”) (the “Volume Limitation”); provided; however, that if Lender’s Net Sales are less than the Volume Limitation for any given week, then in the following week or weeks Lender shall be allowed to sell an additional amount of Conversion Shares equal to the difference between the amount Lender was allowed to sell and the amount Lender actually sold; provided further that, in no event shall Lender’s permitted Net Sales for any given calendar week be increased to more than the greater of (i) $20,000.00 or (ii) the 10% Limitation. For illustration purposes only, if Borrower’s weekly dollar trading volume was $70,000.00 each week for the three (3) consecutive weeks following the Effective Date, Lender would be entitled to Net Sales of up to $7,500.00 per week (the greater of $7,500.00 and $70,000.00 multiplied by 10% (which is equal to $7,000.00)) or up to $22,500.00 during such three-week period. If Lender’s Net Sales were a total of $10,000.00 during the first two (2) such weeks, then Lender would be entitled to Net Sales of up to $12,500.00 during the third week. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Net Sales” means the gross proceeds from sales of the Conversion Shares sold in a calendar week minus any trading commissions or costs charged by Lender’s broker in connection with clearing and selling such Conversion Shares minus the purchase price paid by Lender for any shares of Common Stock purchased on the open market during such week. Upon request, Lender shall promptly provide to Borrower evidence of all sales of Conversion Shares and purchases of shares of Common Stock.

 

4.2. Breach of Volume Limitation. Borrower and Lender agree that in the event Lender breaches the Volume Limitation where its Net Sales of Conversion Shares during any week exceed the dollar volume it is permitted to sell during such week pursuant to the Volume Limitation (such excess, the “Excess Sales”), then in such event, as Borrower’s sole and exclusive remedy for such breach (and which breach may not be used as a defense to Borrower’s performance of its obligations hereunder), Borrower shall be entitled to reduce the Outstanding Balance by an amount equal to 100% of the Excess Sales upon delivery of written notice to Lender setting forth its basis for such reduction. For illustration purposes only, if Borrower’s weekly dollar trading volume was $100,000.00 for a preceding calendar week, Lender would be entitled to Net Sales of up to $10,000.00 during the following week. If Lender’s Net Sales for such following week were equal to $15,000.00, and Lender had sold the maximum number of Conversion Shares it could within the Volume Limitation during each prior week, then in such event Borrower would be entitled to reduce the Outstanding Balance by $5,000.00 (($15,000 - $10,000) x 100%). In the event the Excess Sales are greater than the Outstanding Balance, Lender shall pay to Borrower promptly such excess amount.

5. Defaults and Remedies.

 

5.1. Defaults. The following are events of default under this Note (each, an “Event of Default”): (a) Borrower fails to pay any principal, interest, fees, charges, or any other amount when due and payable hereunder; (b) Borrower fails to deliver any Conversion Shares in accordance with the terms hereof and such failure continues unremedied for a period of two (2) Trading Days following receipt of written notice from Lender of such failure; (c) a receiver, trustee or other similar official shall be appointed over Borrower or a material part of its assets and such appointment shall remain uncontested for twenty (20) days or shall not be dismissed or discharged within sixty (60) days; (d) Borrower becomes insolvent or generally fails to pay, or admits in writing its inability generally to pay, its debts as they become due, subject to applicable grace periods, if any; (e) Borrower makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (f) Borrower files a petition for relief under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law (domestic or foreign); (g) an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding is commenced or filed against Borrower and is not dismissed or discharged within sixty (60) days; (h) Borrower defaults or otherwise fail to observe or perform any covenant, obligation, condition or agreement of Borrower contained herein or in any other Exchange Document (as defined in the Exchange Agreement), other than those specifically set forth in this Section 5.1 and Section 6 of the Exchange Agreement and such default or failure continues unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days following receipt of written notice thereof from Lender; (i) any representation, warranty or other statement made or furnished by or on behalf of Borrower to Lender herein, in any Exchange Document, or otherwise in connection with the issuance of this Note is false, incorrect, incomplete or misleading in any material respect when made or furnished; (j) the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction without Lender’s prior written consent; (k) Borrower fails to maintain the Share Reserve as required under the Exchange Agreement; (l) Borrower effectuates a reverse split of its Common Stock without twenty (20) Trading Days prior written notice to Lender; (m) any money judgment, writ or similar process is entered or filed against Borrower or any subsidiary of Borrower or any of its property or other assets for more than $200,000.00, and shall remain unvacated, unbonded or unstayed for a period of twenty (20) calendar days unless otherwise consented to by Lender; (n) Borrower fails to be DWAC Eligible and such failure continues unremedied for a period of ten (10) days; (o) Borrower fails to observe or perform any covenant set forth in Section 6 of the Exchange Agreement and such failure continues unremedied for a period of ten (10) days following receipt of written notice thereof from Lender; or (p) Borrower breaches any covenant or other term or condition contained in any Other Agreements and such breach continues unremedied for a period of ten (10) days following receipt of written notice thereof from Lender.

 

5.2. Remedies. At any time and from time to time after Lender becomes aware of the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may apply the Default Effect (if not yet already applied) and accelerate this Note by written notice to Borrower, with the Outstanding Balance becoming immediately due and payable in cash. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may, at its option, elect to increase the Outstanding Balance by applying the Default Effect (subject to the limitation set forth below) via written notice to Borrower without accelerating the Outstanding Balance, in which event the Outstanding Balance shall be increased as of the date of the occurrence of the applicable Event of Default pursuant to the Default Effect, but the Outstanding Balance shall not be immediately due and payable unless so declared by Lender (for the avoidance of doubt, if Lender elects to apply the Default Effect pursuant to this sentence, it shall reserve the right to declare the Outstanding Balance immediately due and payable at any time and no such election by Lender shall be deemed to be a waiver of its right to declare the Outstanding Balance immediately due and payable as set forth herein unless otherwise agreed to by Lender in writing). Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in clauses (c), (d), (e), (f) or (g) of Section 5.1, the Outstanding Balance (as increased by the Default Effect) as of the date of acceleration shall become immediately and automatically due and payable in cash without any written notice required by Lender. At any time following the occurrence of any Event of Default, upon written notice given by Lender to Borrower, interest shall accrue on the Outstanding Balance beginning on the date the applicable Event of Default occurred at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law (“Default Interest”). For the avoidance of doubt, Lender may continue making Lender Conversions at any time following an Event of Default until such time as the Outstanding Balance is paid in full. Additionally, following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Borrower may, at its option, pay any Conversion in cash instead of Conversion Shares by paying to Lender on or before the applicable Delivery Date (as defined below) a cash amount equal to the number of Conversion Shares set forth in the applicable Conversion Notice multiplied by the highest intra-day trading price of the Common Stock that occurs during the period beginning on the date the applicable Event of Default occurred and ending on the date of the applicable Conversion Notice. In connection with acceleration described herein, Lender need not provide, and Borrower hereby waives, any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and Lender may immediately and without expiration of any grace period (except as provided for herein) enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under applicable law. Such acceleration may be rescinded and annulled by Lender at any time prior to payment hereunder and Lender shall have all rights as a holder of the Note until such time, if any, as Lender receives full payment pursuant to this Section 5.1. No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Nothing herein shall limit Lender’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to Borrower’s failure to timely deliver Conversion Shares upon Conversion of the Notes as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

6. Unconditional Obligation; No Offset. Borrower acknowledges that this Note is an unconditional, valid, binding and enforceable obligation of Borrower not subject to offset, deduction or counterclaim of any kind. Borrower hereby waives any rights of offset it now has or may have hereafter against Lender, its successors and assigns, and agrees to make the payments or Conversions called for herein in accordance with the terms of this Note.

 

7. Waiver. No waiver of any provision of this Note shall be effective unless it is in the form of a writing signed by the party granting the waiver. No waiver of any provision or consent to any prohibited action shall constitute a waiver of any other provision or consent to any other prohibited action, whether or not similar. No waiver or consent shall constitute a continuing waiver or consent or commit a party to provide a waiver or consent in the future except to the extent specifically set forth in writing.

 

8. Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. Without limiting any provision hereof, if Borrower at any time on or after the Effective 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 and Conversion Floor in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. Without limiting any provision hereof, if Borrower at any time on or after the Effective 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 and Conversion Floor in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased. Any adjustment pursuant to this Section 8 shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination. If any event requiring an adjustment under this Section 8 occurs during the period that a Conversion Price is calculated hereunder, then the calculation of such Conversion Price shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect such event.

 

9. Method of Conversion Share Delivery. On or before the close of business on the third (3rd) Trading Day following the date of delivery of both a Conversion Notice and seller and broker representation letters (in the forms previously executed and delivered by Lender and its broker) (the “Representation Letters”) (the “Delivery Date”), Borrower shall, provided it is DWAC Eligible at such time, deliver or cause its transfer agent to deliver the applicable Conversion Shares electronically via DWAC to the account designated by Lender in the applicable Conversion Notice. If Borrower is not DWAC Eligible, it shall deliver to Lender or its broker (as designated in the Conversion Notice), via reputable overnight courier, a certificate representing the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Conversion Shares to which Lender shall be entitled, registered in the name of Lender or its designee. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower has not met its obligation to deliver Conversion Shares by the Delivery Date unless Lender or its broker, as applicable, has actually received the certificate representing the applicable Conversion Shares no later than the close of business on the relevant Delivery Date pursuant to the terms set forth above. Moreover, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Exchange Document, in the event Borrower or its transfer agent refuses to deliver any Conversion Shares to Lender on grounds that such issuance is in violation of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Rule 144”), Borrower shall deliver or cause its transfer agent to deliver the applicable Conversion Shares to Lender with a restricted securities legend, but otherwise in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9. In conjunction therewith, Borrower will also deliver to Lender a written opinion from its counsel or its transfer agent’s counsel opining as to why the issuance of the applicable Conversion Shares violates Rule 144.

 

5
 

 

10. Conversion Delays. If Borrower fails to deliver Conversion Shares in accordance with the timeframe stated in Section 9, Lender, at any time prior to selling all of those Conversion Shares, may rescind in whole or in part that particular Conversion attributable to the unsold Conversion Shares, with a corresponding increase to the Outstanding Balance (any returned amount will tack back to the Original Issue Date for purposes of determining the holding period under Rule 144). In addition, for each Conversion, in the event that Conversion Shares are not delivered by the fifth Trading Day following delivery of the Conversion Notice and the Representation Letters, a late fee equal to the greater of (a) $250.00 and (b) 1% of the applicable Conversion Share Value rounded to the nearest multiple of $100.00 (but in any event the cumulative amount of such late fees for each Conversion shall not exceed 100% of the applicable Conversion Share Value) will be assessed for each day after such fifth Trading Day until Conversion Share delivery is made; and such late fee will be added to the Outstanding Balance (such fees, the “Conversion Delay Late Fees”). For illustration purposes only, if Lender delivers a Conversion Notice to Borrower pursuant to which Borrower is required to deliver 100,000 Conversion Shares to Lender and on the Delivery Date such Conversion Shares have a Conversion Share Value of $20,000.00 (assuming a Closing Trade Price on the Delivery Date of $0.20 per share of Common Stock), then in such event a Conversion Delay Late Fee in the amount of $250.00 per day (the greater of $250.00 per day and $20,000.00 multiplied by 1%, which is $200.00) would be added to the Outstanding Balance of the Note until such Conversion Shares are delivered to Lender. For purposes of this example, if the Conversion Shares are delivered to Lender twenty (20) days after the applicable Delivery Date, the total Conversion Delay Late Fees that would be added to the Outstanding Balance would be $5,000.00 (20 days multiplied by $250.00 per day). If the Conversion Shares are delivered to Lender one hundred (100) days after the applicable Delivery Date, the total Conversion Delay Late Fees that would be added to the Outstanding Balance would be $20,000.00 (100 days multiplied by $250.00 per day, but capped at 100% of the Conversion Share Value).

 

11. Ownership Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the other Exchange Documents, if at any time Lender shall or would be issued shares of Common Stock under any of the Exchange Documents, but such issuance would cause Lender (together with its affiliates) to beneficially own a number of shares exceeding 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such issuance) (the “Maximum Percentage”), then Borrower must not issue to Lender shares of Common Stock which would exceed the Maximum Percentage. For purposes of this section, beneficial ownership of Common Stock will be determined pursuant to Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act. The shares of Common Stock issuable to Lender that would cause the Maximum Percentage to be exceeded are referred to herein as the “Ownership Limitation Shares”. Borrower will reserve the Ownership Limitation Shares for the exclusive benefit of Lender. From time to time, Lender may notify Borrower in writing of the number of the Ownership Limitation Shares that may be issued to Lender without causing Lender to exceed the Maximum Percentage. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower shall be unconditionally obligated to immediately issue such designated shares to Lender, with a corresponding reduction in the number of the Ownership Limitation Shares. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the term “4.99%” above shall be replaced with “9.99%” at such time as the Market Capitalization is less than $10,000,000.00. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, if the term “4.99%” is replaced with “9.99%” pursuant to the preceding sentence, such increase to “9.99%” shall remain at 9.99% until increased, decreased or waived by Lender as set forth below. By written notice to Borrower, Lender may increase, decrease or waive the Maximum Percentage as to itself but any such waiver will not be effective until the 61st day after delivery thereof. The foregoing 61-day notice requirement is enforceable, unconditional and non-waivable and shall apply to all affiliates and assigns of Lender.

12. Payment of Collection Costs. If this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or enforcement prior to commencing arbitration or legal proceedings, or is collected or enforced through any arbitration or legal proceeding, or Lender otherwise takes action to collect amounts due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of this Note, then Borrower shall pay the costs incurred by Lender for such collection, enforcement or action including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements. Borrower also agrees to pay for any costs, fees or charges of its transfer agent that are charged to Lender pursuant to any Conversion or issuance of shares pursuant to this Note.

 

13. Opinion of Counsel. In the event that an opinion of counsel is needed for any matter related to this Note, such opinion shall be provided by Borrower’s counsel. Borrower’s counsel shall deliver such opinion within three (3) Trading Days of Company’s receipt of the Conversion Notice and Representation Letters. In the event Company’s counsel does not deliver the opinion within the applicable time frame, Lender shall have the right obtain an opinion from its own counsel (subject to such opinion being reasonably acceptable to the Company).

 

14. Governing Law; Venue. This Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and performance of this Note shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of Utah, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Utah or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Utah. The provisions set forth in the Exchange Agreement to determine the proper venue for any disputes are incorporated herein by this reference.

 

15. Resolution of Disputes.

 

15.1. Arbitration of Disputes. By its acceptance of this Note, each party agrees to be bound by the Arbitration Provisions (as defined in the Exchange Agreement) set forth as an exhibit to the Exchange Agreement.

 

15.2. Calculation Disputes. Notwithstanding the Arbitration Provisions, in the case of a dispute as to any Calculation (as defined in the Exchange Agreement), such dispute will be resolved in the manner set forth in the Exchange Agreement.

 

16. Cancellation. After repayment or conversion of the entire Outstanding Balance, this Note shall be deemed paid in full, shall automatically be deemed canceled, and shall not be reissued.

 

17. Amendments. The prior written consent of both parties hereto shall be required for any change or amendment to this Note.

 

18. Assignments. Borrower may not assign this Note without the prior written consent of Lender. This Note and any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of this Note may be offered, sold, assigned or transferred by Lender without the consent of Borrower.

 

19. Time is of the Essence. Time is expressly made of the essence with respect to each and every provision of this Note and the documents and instruments entered into in connection herewith.

 

20. Notices. Whenever notice is required to be given under this Note, unless otherwise provided herein, such notice shall be given in accordance with the subsection of the Exchange Agreement titled “Notices.”

 

7
 

 

21. Liquidated Damages. Lender and Borrower agree that in the event Borrower fails to comply with any of the terms or provisions of this Note, Lender’s damages would be uncertain and difficult (if not impossible) to accurately estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates, future share prices, future trading volumes and other relevant factors. Accordingly, Lender and Borrower agree that any fees, balance adjustments, Default Interest or other charges assessed under this Note are not penalties but instead are intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, liquidated damages (under Lender’s and Borrower’s expectations that any such liquidated damages will tack back to the Original Issue Date for purposes of determining the holding period under Rule 144).

 

22. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF LENDER AND BORROWER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO DEMAND THAT ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS NOTE OR THE RELATIONSHIPS OF THE PARTIES HERETO BE TRIED BY JURY. THIS WAIVER EXTENDS TO ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO DEMAND A TRIAL BY JURY ARISING UNDER COMMON LAW OR ANY APPLICABLE STATUTE, LAW, RULE OR REGULATION. FURTHER, EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT SUCH PARTY IS KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVING SUCH PARTY’S RIGHT TO DEMAND TRIAL BY JURY.

 

23. Voluntary Agreement. Borrower has carefully read this Note and has asked any questions needed for Borrower to understand the terms, consequences and binding effect of this Note and fully understand them. Borrower has had the opportunity to seek the advice of an attorney of Borrower’s choosing, or has waived the right to do so, and is executing this Note voluntarily and without any duress or undue influence by Lender or anyone else.

 

24. Severability. If any part of this Note is construed to be in violation of any law, such part shall be modified to achieve the objective of Borrower and Lender to the fullest extent permitted by law and the balance of this Note shall remain in full force and effect.

ATTACHMENT 1

DEFINITIONS

 

For purposes of this Note, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

 

A1. “Bloomberg” means Bloomberg L.P. (or if that service is not then reporting the relevant information regarding the Common Stock, a comparable reporting service of national reputation selected by Lender and reasonably satisfactory to Borrower).

 

A2. “Closing Bid Price” and “Closing Trade Price” means the last closing bid price and last closing trade price, respectively, for the Common Stock on its principal market, as reported by Bloomberg, or, if its principal market begins to operate on an extended hours basis and does not designate the closing bid price or the closing trade price (as the case may be) then the last bid price or last trade price, respectively, of the Common Stock prior to 4:00:00 p.m., New York time, as reported by Bloomberg, or, if its principal market is not the principal securities exchange or trading market for the Common Stock, the last closing bid price or last trade price, respectively, of the Common Stock on the principal securities exchange or trading market where the Common Stock is listed or traded as reported by Bloomberg, or if the foregoing do not apply, the last closing bid price or last trade price, respectively, of the Common Stock in the over-the-counter market on the electronic bulletin board for the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no closing bid price or last trade price, respectively, is reported for the Common Stock by Bloomberg, the average of the bid prices, or the ask prices, respectively, of any market makers for the Common Stock as reported by OTC Markets Group, Inc., and any successor thereto. If the Closing Bid Price or the Closing Trade Price cannot be calculated for the Common Stock on a particular date on any of the foregoing bases, the Closing Bid Price or the Closing Trade Price (as the case may be) of the Common Stock on such date shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by Lender and Borrower. If Lender and Borrower are unable to agree upon the fair market value of the Common Stock, then such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures in Section 15.2. All such determinations shall be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination or other similar transaction during such period.

 

A3. “Default Effect” means multiplying the Outstanding Balance as of the date the applicable Event of Default occurred by 10% for the first occurrence of any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default pursuant to Section 5.1(b) hereof), and then adding the resulting product to the Outstanding Balance as of the date the applicable Event of Default occurred, with the sum of the foregoing then becoming the Outstanding Balance under this Note as of the date the applicable Event of Default occurred.

 

A4. “DTC” means the Depository Trust Company or any successor thereto.
