(a) Conversion Right. Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Note, for as long as this Note is outstanding, the Lender shall have the right, at its option, to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid Conversion Amount (as defined below) into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock in accordance with Section 5(c) below at the Conversion Rate (as defined below). The Borrower shall not issue any fraction of a share of Common Stock upon any conversion. If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Borrower shall round such fraction of a share of Common Stock up to the nearest whole share. The Borrower shall pay any and all taxes that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Common Stock upon conversion of any Conversion Amount.

 

(b) Conversion Rate. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any Conversion Amount pursuant to Section 5(a) above shall be determined by dividing (x) such Conversion Amount by (y) $1.25 (the “Conversion Rate”). The “Conversion Amount” means the sum of (i) the portion of the principal balance of this Note to be converted with respect to which this determination is being made, and (ii) accrued and unpaid interest with respect to such principal balance, if any.

 

(c) Mergers. In the case of any consolidation or merger of the Borrower with any other entity (each such transaction, a “Merger”), the entity formed by the Merger shall succeed to the covenants, stipulations, promises and the agreements contained in this Note. In the event of a Merger, the Borrower shall make appropriate provisions so that the Lender shall have the right thereafter to convert this Note into the kind and amount of securities receivable upon such Merger by the Lender of the number of securities into which this Note could have been converted immediately prior to such Merger. This provision shall similarly apply to successive Mergers.

 

(d) Distributions. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, pursuant to which holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange for shares of Common Stock other than upon consummation of a Merger (a “Corporate Event”), the Borrower shall make appropriate provision to insure that the Lender will thereafter have the right to receive upon a conversion of this Note, (i) in addition to the shares of Common Stock receivable upon such conversion, such securities or other assets to which the Lender would have been entitled with respect to such shares of Common Stock had such shares of Common Stock been held by the Lender upon the consummation of such Corporate Event (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of this Note) or (ii) in lieu of the shares of Common Stock otherwise receivable upon such conversion, such securities or other assets received by the holders of shares of Common Stock in connection with the consummation of such Corporate Event in such amounts as the Lender would have been entitled to receive had this Note initially been issued with conversion rights for the form of such consideration (as opposed to shares of Common Stock) at a conversion rate for such consideration commensurate with the Conversion Rate. Provision made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in a form and substance satisfactory to the Lender. The provisions of this Section 5(d) shall apply similarly and equally to successive Corporate Events and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the conversion of this Note.

 

(e) Reservation. So long as this Note is outstanding, the Borrower shall take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of this Note, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the conversion of this Note in full.

 

(f) Limitation on Conversion. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, unless otherwise agreed to in writing among the Borrower and the Lender, at no time will the Lender be entitled to convert any amount of this Note into Common Stock if such conversion would result in the Lender owning more than 9.9% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock.

6. Security. The Borrower hereby grants and pledges to the Lender a continuing security interest in the Collateral to secure prompt repayment of the Loan and all other amounts outstanding under this Note and to secure prompt performance by the Borrower of each of its covenants and duties under this Note (the “Security Interest”). The Security Interest shall constitute a valid security interest in the Collateral. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender to file UCC financing statements naming the Borrower as debtor and the Lender as a secured party with the appropriate filing office and any and all continuation statements and amendments thereto, relating to the Collateral (including, without limitation, any such financing statements that describe the Collateral as “all assets” or “all personal property” (or words of similar effect)). The Security Interest shall continue until the full and complete payment of all amounts due and owing hereunder, whereupon the Security Interest shall automatically terminate. Upon the termination of the Security Interest, the Borrower and the Lender shall execute such further documents and take such further actions as may be reasonably necessary to effectuate a release of the Security Interest. The Lender acknowledges that the Security Interest is pari passu with the security interests of the secured convertible note holders pursuant to the other secured convertible notes of the Borrower, which are currently outstanding or issued by the Borrower subsequent to the date of this Note.

(i) The Lender may sell, in one or more sales and in one or more parcels, or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Collateral in any commercially reasonable manner as the Lender may elect, in a public or private transaction, at any location as deemed reasonable by the Lender either for cash or credit or for future delivery at such price as the Lender may deem fair, and (unless prohibited by the UCC, as adopted in any applicable jurisdiction). The Lender may be the purchaser of any or all Collateral so sold and may apply upon the purchase price therefor any obligations secured hereby. The Lender shall incur no liability as a result of the sale of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private

 

sale conducted in a commercially reasonable manner and pursuant to applicable federal and state securities Laws. The Borrower hereby waives any claims against the Lender arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the obligations, provided that such sale is conducted in a commercially reasonable manner and pursuant to applicable federal and state securities Laws. If any applicable provision of any Law requires the Lender to give reasonable notice of any Disposition or other action, the Borrower hereby agrees that ten (10) days prior written notice shall constitute reasonable notice thereof. Such notice, in the case of public sale, shall state the time and place fixed for such sale, and in the case of private sale, the time after which such sale is to be made.

The Borrower’s obligations under this Section shall survive the payment of the indebtedness under this Note.

 

13. Descriptive Headings; Governing Law. The descriptive headings of the several Sections of this Note are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Note. This Note will be governed by the internal laws of the State of Nevada.

 

14. Business Days. If any payment is due, or any time period for giving notice or taking action expires, on a day which is not a Business Day, then the payment will be due and payable on, and the time period will automatically be extended to, the next Business Day immediately following such day that is not a Business Day.

 

15. Register. The Borrower shall maintain a register (the “Note Register”) in its principal offices for the purpose of registering this Note and any transfer or partial transfer thereof, which register shall reflect and identify, at all times, the ownership of record of any interest in this Note (including the amount of principal and interest due hereunder). Upon the issuance of this Note, the Borrower shall record the name and address of the initial payee of this Note in this Note Register as the first holder.

 

16. Waiver. The rights and remedies of the Lender under this Note shall be cumulative and not alternative. No waiver by the Lender of any right or remedy under this Note shall be effective unless in a writing signed by the Lender. Neither the failure nor any delay in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Note will operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege by the Lender will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) no claim or right of the Lender arising out of this Note can be discharged by the Lender, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless in a writing signed by the Lender, (b) no waiver that may be given by the Lender will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given, and (c) no notice to or demand on the Borrower will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of the Borrower or of the right of the Lender to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Note. The Borrower hereby waives presentment, demand, protest and notice of dishonor and protest.

17. Amendment. None of the terms or provisions of this Note may be excluded, modified, or amended except by a written instrument duly executed by the Lender expressly referring hereto and setting forth the provision so excluded, modified or amended. This Note shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Borrower and inure to the benefit of the Lender and its successors, endorsees and assigns.

 

18. Highest Lawful Rate. It is the intention of the parties hereto to comply with the applicable usury laws. Accordingly, it is agreed that, notwithstanding all other provisions of this Note, none of the terms and provisions of this Note shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay the Lender, for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, and the Borrower shall never be required to pay interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate.
