SECTION 3.2

Exercise of Conversion Privilege. (a) Conversion of this Note may be exercised on any Business Day by the Holder by telecopying an executed and completed Conversion Notice to the Company (the “Conversion Date”).

ARTICLE 4.
ADJUSTMENTS IN THE CONVERSION PRICE



SECTION 4.1

Adjustments. The Conversion Rate and the number of shares deliverable upon conversion of this Note are subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:


(a)

Reclassification, Etc. In case the Company shall reorganize its capital, reclassify its capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another person or entity (where the Company is not the survivor or where there is a change in or distribution with respect to the Common Stock of the Company), sell, convey, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its property, assets or business to another Person, or effectuate a transaction or series of related transactions in which more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the Company is disposed of (each, a “Fundamental Corporate Change”) and, pursuant to the terms of such Fundamental Corporate Change, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, or any cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or in lieu of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation (“Other Property”) are to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock of the Company, then the Holder of this Note shall have the right thereafter, at its sole option, to (a) receive the number of shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and Other Property as is receivable upon or as a result of such Fundamental Corporate Change by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which the outstanding portion of this Note may be converted at the Conversion Rate applicable immediately prior to such Fundamental Corporate Change or (c) require the Company, or such successor, resulting or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, to, without benefit of any additional consideration therefor, execute and deliver to the Holder a Note with substantial identical rights, privileges, powers, restrictions and other terms as this Note in an amount equal to the amount outstanding under this Note immediately prior to such Fundamental Corporate Change. For purposes hereof, “common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation” shall include stock of such corporation of any class which is not preferred as to dividends or assets over any other class of stock of such corporation and which is not subject to prepayment. The foregoing provisions shall similarly apply to successive Fundamental Corporate Changes.


(b)

Stock Splits, etc. The Conversion Rate and the Number of shares of Common Stock to be received shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of any of the following. In case the Corporation shall: (i) pay a dividend in shares of Common Stock or make a distribution in shares of Common Stock to holders of its outstanding Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, (iii) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or (iv) issue any shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of the Common Stock, then the Conversion Rate and the number of shares of stock to be received on any conversion shall be adjusted accordingly.


For purposes of example only, and assuming the Holder has not converted the Note inclusive of accrued interest, (or a Forced Conversion in the case of the Company)   the Company declares a reverse split of its common stock on a 10:1 basis such that for every 100 shares of Common Stock outstanding prior to the declaration of the reverse split, there shall be 10 shares of common stock outstanding after the reverse split. Then in that event, the Conversion Price prior to the reverse common stock split (currently one share of common stock for each $0.75 of debt) shall be adjusted by multiplying the dollar amount of the debt required to receive one share of common stock by 10 and the new Conversion Rate shall be one share of common stock for every $7.50 of debt. Similarly, if the Company declares a 10:1 forward split, the Conversion Price shall be the dollar amount of the debt required to receive one share of common stock divided by 10. As a result, in the case of a 1:10 forward split, the Conversion Price shall be one share of common stock for every $0.075 of debt.






SECTION 4.2

Surrender of Notes. Upon any redemption of this Note or upon maturity, the Holder shall either deliver this Note by hand to the Company at its principal executive offices or surrender the same to the Company at such address by nationally recognized overnight courier. Payment of the redemption price or the amount due on maturity shall be made by the Company to the Holder against receipt of this Note (unless converted and paid in common stock) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account(s) as the Holder shall specify by written notice to the Company (if the Company has not elected to pay this Note with shares of its Common Stock


ARTICLE 5.
DEFAULT


SECTION 5.1.

Default. In the case of an Event of Default (as defined below), the Holder shall have all rights available to it at law or in equity, including all rights available under the laws of the state of Nevada. As used herein, an “Event of Default” means: (i) the Company failing to make payment under this Note within ten (10) days of the Maturity Date; (ii) the commission of any act of bankruptcy by the Company, the execution by the Company of a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, the filing by or against the Company of a petition in bankruptcy or any petition for relief under the federal bankruptcy act or the continuation of such petition without dismissal for a period of ninety (90) days or more, or the appointment of a receiver or trustee to take possession of the property or assets of the Company; and (iii) the Company’s material breach of this Note, the Security Agreement, or the Purchase Agreement, and such breach remains unremedied for thirty (30) days after the date the Company’s management becomes aware of such breach. Upon an Event of Default, the Holder may declare all amounts of principal and interest owed hereunder immediately due and payable. Interest shall accrue from the date of any Event of Default on the amount in default at a rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum, not to exceed the highest lawful rate. The Company shall reimburse the Holder for any reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees incurred by the Holder in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights or remedies under this Note and any other documents executed in connection with this Note, and in connection with any amendment, waiver, “workout” or restructuring of this Note. In the event of a lawsuit or arbitration proceeding, the prevailing party is entitled to recover costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with the lawsuit or arbitration proceeding, as determined by the court or arbitrator. In the event that any case is commenced by or against the Company under the Bankruptcy Code (Title 11, United States Code) or any similar or successor statute, the Holder is entitled to recover costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the Holder related to the preservation, protection, or enforcement of any rights of the Holder in such a case.
