CAMBRIDGE HOLDINGS, LTD.
 
DUE JUNE 30, 2011
 

Original Issue Date _____ __, 2010
US$[25,000]

This Convertible Promissory Note is one of a series of duly authorized and issued convertible promissory notes of Cambridge Holdings, Ltd, a Colorado corporation (the “Company”), designated its 6% Convertible Promissory Notes due June 30, 2011 (the “Note”), issued to ____________________ (together with its permitted successors and assigns, the “Holder”) in accordance with exemptions from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated ____ ___, 2010 (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) between the Company and the Holder.  Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Securities Purchase Agreement.
 
 
Article I.
 
Section 1.01    Principal and Interest.  For value received, the Company hereby promises to pay to the order of the Holder, in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds the principal sum of ____________________ on the earlier of (i) June 30, 2011 (the “Maturity Date”) or (ii) an Event of Default (as defined in Section 3.01).
 
(a)  Interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance of the Note at the rate of six percent (6%) per year commencing from the Original Issue Date until the Maturity Date.  Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and actual calendar days elapsed.
 
 
 
 
 

 
(b)  On the Maturity Date, the entire unpaid principal amount and all accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Holder, unless this Note is converted in accordance with Section 1.02 herein.
 
(c)  Except as otherwise set forth in this Note, the Company may not prepay any portion of the principal amount of this Note without the prior written consent of the Holder.
 
Section 1.02  Conversion.
 
(a)  Mandatory Conversion.  This Note will automatically convert as to all unpaid principal, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, into units (“Units”) of the Company’s securities, at a conversion price equal to a thirty-three (33%) percent discount to the price at which such Units are sold (the “Conversion Price”) in a private placement offering in an anticipated minimum amount of $6 million and a maximum amount of $12 million (the “PP O”), which will be scheduled to close simultaneously with the closing of the proposed merger (the “Merger”) among the Company, Prescient Medical, Inc. (“Prescient”) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.  Each Unit shall consist of shares (each, a “Conversion Share”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and common stock purchase warrants (the “Warrants”).  Each Warrant shall entitle the holder to purchase Conversion Shares (the “Warrant Shares”) at an intended ex ercise price (the “Exercise Price”) of 150% of the amount of the PPO per share amount.  No fraction of shares or scrip representing fractions of shares will be issued on conversion, but the number of shares issuable shall be rounded to the nearest whole share.  The number of Units issuable upon a conversion hereunder shall be determined by the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding principal amount of this Note, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, by (y) the Conversion Price.  The Company shall afford the Holder the opportunity to become a party to all agreements and instruments executed by the investors in the PPO, including, but not limited to, a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). The Registration Rights Agreement shall, among other things, register the Conversion Shares (and provide for “piggyback” registration of the Warrant Shares) under the Securities Act.
 
Section 1.03    Reservation of Common Stock.  As set forth in Section 4(e) of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company shall reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of this Note and the exercise of the Warrants, that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Note is convertible from time to time based upon the Conversion Price, plus (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrants are exercisable from time to time based upon the Exercise Price.
 
Section 1.04    Absolute Obligation/Ranking.  Except as expressly provided herein, no provision of this Note shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, interest and liquidated damages (if any) on, this Note at the time, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.  This Note is a direct debt obligation of the Company.  This Note ranks pari passu with all other Notes now or hereinafter issued pursuant to the S ecurities Purchase Agreement.

Section 1.05    Paying Agent and Registrar.  Initially, the Company will act as paying agent and registrar.  The Company may change any paying agent, registrar, or Company-registrar by giving the Holder not less than ten (10) business days’ written notice of its election to do so, specifying the name, address, telephone number and facsimile number of the paying agent or registrar.  The Company may act in any such capacity.
 
Section 1.06    Different Denominations.  This Note is exchangeable for an equal aggregate principal amount of Notes of different authorized denominations, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.  No service charge will be made for such registration of transfer or exchange.
 
Section 1.07    Investment Representations. This Note has been issued subject to certain investment representations of the original Holder set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement and may be transferred or exchanged only in compliance with the Securities Purchase Agreement and applicable federal and state securities laws and regulations.
 
Section 1.08    Reliance on Note Register.  Prior to due presentment to the Company for transfer or conversion of this Note, the Company and any agent of the Company may treat the person in whose name this Note is duly registered on the Note Register as the owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment as herein provided and for all other purposes, whether or not this Note is overdue, and neither the Company nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
 
Section 1.09   In addition to the rights and remedies given it by this Note, the Holder shall have all those rights and remedies allowed by applicable laws.  The rights and remedies of the Holder are cumulative and recourse to one or more right or remedy shall not constitute a waiver of the others.
 
Article II.
 
Section 2.01  Amendments and Waiver of Default.  The Note may not be amended without the consent of the Holder.  Notwithstanding the above, without the consent of the Holder, the Note may be amended to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of the Holder.

7
 
 

 
(b)  Effect on Conversion Price of Certain Events.  For purposes of determining the adjusted Conversion Price under Section 6.01(a) above, the following shall be applicable:
 
(i)  Issuance of Options.  If after the date hereof, the Company in any manner grants any rights, warrants or options to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock or convertible securities (“Options”), other than Excluded Securities or Other Securities issued or deemed to have been issued in connection with any Approved Stock Plan, and the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion or exchange of any convertible securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option is less than the Conversion Price then in effect, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the granting or sale of such Option for such price per share.  For purposes of this Section 6.01(b)(i), the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of such convertible securities shall be equal to the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to any one share of Common Stock upon the granting or sale of the Option, upon exercise of the Option or upon conversion or exchange of any other convertible security other than this Note issuable upon exercise of such Option.  No further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock or of such convertible securities upon the exercise of such Options or upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such convertible securities.
 
(ii)  Issuance of Convertible Securities.  If the Company in any manner issues or sells any convertible securities after the Original Issue Date, other than Excluded Securities or Other Securities issued or deemed to have been issued in connection with an Approved Stock Plan, and the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the conversion or exchange thereof is less than the Conversion Price then in effect, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the issuance or sale of such convertible securities for such price per share.  For the purposes of this Section 6.01(b)(ii), the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange shall be equal to the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to one share of Common Stock upon the issuance or sale of the convertible security and upon conversion or exchange of such convertible security.  No further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such convertible securities, and if any such issue or sale of such convertible securities is made upon exercise of any Options for which adjustment of the Conversion Price had been or are to be made pursuant to other provisions of this Section 6.01(b), no further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made by reason of such issue or sale.
 
(iii)  Change in Option Price or Rate of Conversion.  If the purchase price provided for in any Options, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue, conversion or exchange of any convertible securities, or the rate at which any convertible securities are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock changes at any time, the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such change shall be adjusted to the Conversion Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or convertible securities provided for such changed purchase price, additional consideration or changed conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note shall be correspondingly readjusted.  For purposes of this Section 6.01(b)(iii), if the terms of any Option or convertible security that was outstanding as of the Original Issue Date are changed in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence, then such Option or convertible security and the Common Stock deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such change.  No adjustment pursuant to this Section 6.01(b) shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Conversion Price then in effect.
 
 
8
 
 

 
(c)  Effect on Conversion Price of Certain Events.  For purposes of determining the adjusted Conversion Price under Sections 6.01(a) and 6.01(b), the following shall be applicable:
 
(i)  Calculation of Consideration Received.  If any Common Stock, Options or convertible securities are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefore will be deemed to be the net amount received by the Company therefore.  If any Common Stock, Options or convertible securities are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of such consideration received by the Company will be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of marketable securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company will be the market price of such se curities on the date of receipt of such securities (measured by the closing sale price of such securities on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board or its principal trading market).  If any Common Stock, Options or convertible securities are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Company is the surviving entity, the amount of consideration therefore will be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such Common Stock, Options or convertible securities, as the case may be.  The fair value of any consideration other than cash or securities will be determined jointly by the Company and the holders of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding.  If such parties are unable to reach agreement within ten (10) days after the occurrence of an event requiring valuation (the “Valuatio n Event”), the fair value of such consideration will be determined within five (5) Business Days after the tenth (10th) day following the Valuation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected by the Company and the holders of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding.  The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding upon all parties and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Company.
 
(ii)  Integrated Transactions.  In case any Option is issued in connection with the issue or sale of other securities of the Company, together comprising one integrated transaction in which no specific consideration is allocated to such Options by the parties thereto, the Options will be deemed to have been issued for a consideration of $0.001.
 
(iii)  Treasury Shares.  The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time does not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company, and the disposition of any shares so owned or held will be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock.
 
 
9
 
 

 
(iv)  Record Date.  If the Company takes a record of the holders of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (1) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Stock, Options or in convertible securities or (2) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock, Options or convertible securities, then such record date will be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.
 
(d)  Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock.  If the Company at any time after the date of issuance of this Note 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 or Future Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced.  If the Company at any time after the date of issuance of this Note combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number o f shares, the Conversion Price or Future Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased.  Any adjustment under this Section 6.01(d) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.
 
(e)  Distribution of Assets.  If the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Note, then, in each such case the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive the Distribution shall be reduced, effective as of the close of business on such record date, to a price determined by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction of which (A) the numerator shall be the closing bid price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding such record date minus the value of the Distribution (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors) applicable to one share of Common Stock, and (B) the denominator shall be the closing bid price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding such record date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Distribution in the form of a stock dividend (the “Forward Split”) to be effected prior to, and in connection with, the Merger shall in no event cause an adjustment to the Conversion Price, nor shall any similar adjustme nt to the capital structure of the Company effected in connection with the Merger and the PPO.
 
(f)  Certain Events.  If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 6.01 but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features but excluding the Recapitalization, as such term is defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), then the Company’s Board of Directors will make an appropriate adjustment in the Conversion Price so as to protect the rights of the holders of the Note; provided, except as set forth in Section 6.01(d), that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 6.01(f) will inc rease the Conversion Price as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 6.01.
 
 
10
 
 

 
(i)  Notices.
 
1)  Immediately upon any adjustment of the Conversion Price, the Company will give written notice thereof to the holder of this Note, setting forth in reasonable detail, and certifying, the calculation of such adjustment.
 
2)  The Company will give written notice to the holder of this Note at least ten (10) days prior to the date on which the Company closes its books or takes a record (A) with respect to any dividend or distribution upon the Common Stock, (B) with respect to any pro rata subscription offer to holders of Common Stock or (C) for determining rights to vote with respect to any dissolution or liquidation, provided that such information shall be made known to the public prior to or in conjunction with such notice being provided to such holder.
 
(ii)  Definitions.
 
1)  “Approved Stock Plan” means any employee benefit plan approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, or any successor thereto, pursuant to which the Company’s securities may be issued to any employee, officer or director for services provided to the Company.
 
2)  “Excluded Securities” means any of the following: (a) any issuance by the Company of securities in connection with a strategic partnership or a joint venture (the primary purpose of which is not to raise equity capital), (b) any issuance by the Company of securities as consideration for a merger or consolidation or the acquisition of a business, product, license, or other assets of another person or entity and (c) options to purchase shares of Common Stock, or other stock based awards or grants under an Approved Stock Plan.
 
3)  “Other Securities” means (i) those options and warrants of the Company issued prior to, and outstanding on, the Original Issue Date, (ii) the Units, including the Common Stock and Warrants included in the Units, issued in the PPO, (ii) the shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of such options and warrants, provided such options and warrants are not amended after the Original Issue Date, (iii) the shares of Common Stock issued in connection with the Forward Split and (iv) the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants or conversion of this Note.
