1.1           Interest Rate.   Interest payable on this Note shall accrue at the annual rate of eight tenths of one percent (0.8%) and be payable on the Maturity Date, accelerated or otherwise, when the principal and remaining accrued but unpaid interest shall be due and payable, or sooner as described below.

1.4           Prepayment.  This Note includes a valuable conversion right in favor of the Holder and may not be prepaid by the Borrower in whole or in part, at any time.

2.1.           Conversion into the Borrower’s Common Stock.

 

(a)           Commencing on the Issue Date, the Holder shall have the right at any time until this Note is fully paid, to convert any outstanding and unpaid principal portion of this Note, and accrued interest, at the election of the Holder (the date of giving of such notice of conversion being an “Optional Conversion Date”) into fully paid and non-assessable 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 2.1(c) hereof, determined as provided herein. & #160;Upon delivery to the Borrower of a completed Notice of Conversion, a form of which is annexed hereto as Exhibit A, Borrower shall issue and deliver to the Holder within three (3) business days after 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.  At the election of the Holder, the Borrower will deliver accrued but unpaid interest on the Note, if any, through the Conversion Date directly to the Holder on or before the Delivery Date.  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 and interest, if any, to be converted, by the Fixed Conversion Price.

 

(b)           If this Note shall remain unpaid and outstanding on the Automatic Conversion Date (as defined below), then, subject to the limitations of Section 2.4 the outstanding and unpaid principal portion of this Note and accrued interest shall be converted contemporaneously with the event giving rise to the Automatic Conversion Date into fully paid and non-assessable 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 Fixed Conversion Price as defined in Section 2.1(c) hereof, determined as provide d herein as same may be adjusted.  As used in this Section 2.1(b), “Automatic Conversion Date” means the first trading day following the date on which all of the following shall have occurred (and, as applicable, be continuing):  (i) six months shall have elapsed from the initial issuance of this

 

Note (the “Restricted Period”) and (ii) either (A) the closing price of the Common Stock on the principal exchange or inter-dealer quotation system on which it is traded shall be [$.909 if issued prior to the Dividend (as defined in the Merger Agreement)] [$0.25 if issued subsequent to the Dividend (as defined in the Merger Agreement)] or greater for 22 consecutive trading days (with the earliest such testing period commencing after the end of the Restricted Period) during which period the arithmetic mean of the trading volume of shares of Common Stock shall be at least 100,000 per trading day, or (B) a transaction shall have been consummated in which not less than $15 million in aggregate amount of Common Stock shall be issued by the Borrower for consideration the fair market value of which is not less than $15 million; provided, in each case that the Common Stock so issued to the Holder may be transferred without limitation as to amount pursuant to Rule 144 or pursuant to an effective resale registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933.  The Optional Conversion Date and the Automatic Conversion Date are collectively referred to herein and each is deemed, as applicable, as a “Conversion Date.”

 

(c)           Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.1(d) hereof, the fixed conversion price per share shall be equal to [$0.182 if issued prior to the Dividend (as defined in the Merger Agreement)] [$0.05 if issued subsequent to the Dividend (as defined in the Merger Agreement)] (“Fixed Conversion Price”).

 

(d)            The Fixed Conversion Price and number and kind of shares or other securities to be issued upon conversion determined pursuant to Section 2.1(a) or Section 2.1(b), shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events while this conversion right remains outstanding, as follows:

 

(i)           Merger, Sale of Assets, etc.  If (A) the Borrower effects any merger or  consolidation of the Borrower with or into another entity, (B) the Borrower effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions,  (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Borrower or another entity) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, (D) the Borrower consummates a stock purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with one or more persons or entities whereby such other persons or entities acquire more than the 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by such other persons or entities making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other persons or entities making or party to, such stock purchase agreement or other business combination), (E) any “person” or “group” (as these terms are used for purposes of Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) is or shall become the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of 50% of the aggregate Common Stock of the Borrower, or (F) the Borrower effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such case, a “Fundamental  Tran saction”), this Note, as to the unpaid principal portion thereof and accrued interest thereon, shall thereafter be deemed to evidence the right to convert into such number and kind of shares or other securities and property as would have been issuable or distributable on account of such Fundamental Transaction, upon or with respect to the securities subject to the conversion right immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction.  The foregoing provision shall similarly apply to successive Fundamental 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 Fundamental Transaction.

 

(ii)           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 and accrued interest thereon, 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.

 

(iii)           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.

 

(iv)           Share Issuance.   So long as this Note is outstanding, if the Borrower shall issue any Common Stock except for the Excepted Issuances (as defined below), prior to the complete conversion or payment of this Note, for a consideration per share that is less than the Fixed Conversion Price that would be in effect at the time of such issue, then, and thereafter successively upon each such issuance, the Fixed Conversion Price shall be reduced to such other lower issue price.  For purposes of this adjustment, the issuance of any security or debt instrument of the Borrower carrying the right to convert such security or debt instrument into Common Stock or of any warrant, right or opti on to purchase Common Stock shall result in an adjustment to the Fixed Conversion Price upon the issuance of the above-described security, debt instrument, warrant, right, or option 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 Fixed Conversion Price. Common Stock issued or issuable by the Borrower for no consideration will be deemed issuable or to have been issued for $0.001 per share of Common Stock.  The reduction of the Fixed Conversion Price described in this paragraph is in addition to the other rights of the Holder described in the Subscription Agreement.  “Excepted Issuance” means (a) financings closing more than 24 months after the original issuance date of the first convertible promissory note issued by the Borrower to a Holder or any Other Holder, whichever is first, (b) the issuance of capi tal stock to employees, consultants, officers or directors of the Borrower pursuant to stock purchase or stock option plans approved by the Board of Directors, (c) the issuance of securities in connection with acquisition transactions, (d) the issuance of securities to financial institutions or lessors in connection with commercial credit arrangements, equipment financings or similar transactions, (e) shares issued upon conversion of this Note or Other Notes, (f) the issuance of securities in an offering in which all of the Notes will be automatically converted or an underwritten public offering in which at least $15 million in gross proceeds are raised, (g) the issuance of securities pursuant to other currently outstanding options, warrants, notes, or other rights to acquire securities of the Borrower; or (h) stock splits, stock dividends or like transactions.

 

(e)           Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 2.1(d) above, the Borrower shall promptly mail to the Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

 

(f)           During the period the conversion right exists, Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock not less than an amount of Common Stock equal to 150% of the amount of shares of Common Stock issuable 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.

 

2.2           Method of Conversion.  This Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part as described in Section 2.1(a) hereof and shall be converted automatically as provided in Section 2.1(b).  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 and interest which shall not have been converted or paid.

 

2.3           Effect of Conversion.  At the time of conversion as provided in this Section 2, the rights of the Holder as holders the principal amount and interest accrued on this Note so converted shall cease, and the Person or Persons entitled to receive the Common Stock issuable upon conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such Common Stock at such time.  Unless otherwise specified by the Holder, if Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of this Note is to be registered in a name other than that of the Holder, such transaction shall be deemed a transfer, prior to the conversion of this No te, of that portion of this Note to be so converted or issued to the Person in whose name such Common Stock is to be registered.  The Holder shall within three (3) business days after the Note has been fully converted or paid and all conversion shares have been received by the Holder, surrender this Note, duly endorsed for cancelation, to the Borrower.  Notwithstanding any delay or failure in such surrender, upon the Conversion Date, no Person shall have any rights in respect of the converted portion of this Note, except the right to receive shares of Common Stock on conversion thereof as provided in this Section 2.

 

2.4.           Maximum Conversion.  The Holder shall not be entitled to convert on a Conversion Date nor may the Company convert on an Automatic 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 H older 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 4.99%.  The Holder shall have the authority and obligation to determine whether the restriction contained in this Section 2.4 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 2.4, in whole or in part, upon and effective after 61 days prior written notice to the Borrower to increase such percentage to up to 9.99%.

 

2.5           No Fractional Shares.  No fractional Common Stock or scrip certificates in respect thereof shall be issued upon conversion of any this Note.  If more than one Note shall be converted at one time by the Holder, the number of full shares which shall be issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of Notes so converted.  Instead of any fractional Common Stock which would otherwise be issuable upon conversion of any convertible note, the Borrower shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such fraction (calculated to the nearest 1/100 of a share) in an amount in Dollars equal to the same fraction of the current market price pe r share of Common Stock (as calculated by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a Board resolution) at the close of business on the day of conversion, or alternatively, at the Borrower’s option, the Borrower shall round up the conversion transaction to the next higher whole share.

 

2.6           Taxes on Conversions.  Except as provided in the next sentence, the Borrower will pay any and all transfer, stamp, documentary and other similar taxes and duties that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of Common Stock on conversion of this Note pursuant hereto.  The Holder will be required to pay any tax or duty which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of

 

Common Stock in a name other than that of the Holder, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such issue has paid to the Borrower the amount of any such tax or duty or has established to the satisfaction of the Borrower that such tax or duty has been paid.

 

 

 

The occurrence of any of the following events of default (“Event of Default”) shall, at the option of the Holder hereof, make all sums of principal and interest then remaining unpaid hereon and all other amounts payable hereunder immediately due and payable, upon demand, without presentment, or grace period, all of which hereby are expressly waived, except as set forth below:
