For the avoidance of doubt, unless otherwise stated, the term “Holder” as used herein refers to each and any Holder of this Note, including the Initial Holder, any Subsequent Holder (as that term is defined herein), and, in the event that there is more than one Holder of this Note, then all such Holders jointly and severally. This Note may not be offered, sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, mortgaged, hypothecated, transferred, conveyed or otherwise disposed of by the Holder in the absence of an effective registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to such transfer or an opinion of FPCG’s legal counsel that the registration of such transfer is not required by virtue of an available exemption therefrom. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Note may be transferred only (i) to an affiliate of the Holder for estate planning purposes, or (ii) to a third party at the option of the Holder following the occurrence of an uncured and unwaived Event of Default hereunder (any such subsequent holder of this Note, a “Subsequent Holder,” and each of the transfers set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of this sentence, a “Permitted Transfer”); provided, however, that any Permitted Transfer shall be subject to compliance with all applicable securities laws and shall not be made in the absence of an effective registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to such transfer or an opinion of FPCG’s legal counsel that the registration of such transfer is not required by virtue of an available exemption therefrom. Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 20.


This Note is issued in connection with the sale and issuance of up to $3,313,000 in principal amount of promissory notes (the “Notes”). Each Note shall rank on a pari passu basis in all respects with all other Notes issued in such financing (the “Bridge Financing”) and all such Notes shall be repaid by the Company on a pari passu, pro rata basis. As additional consideration for the purchase of Notes, each participant in the Bridge Financing shall be issued a financing warrant to purchase shares of the Common Stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.01 per share (each a “Warrant” and together, the “Warrants”).

1. Payments of Principal. On the Maturity Date (as that term is defined herein), FPCG shall pay to the Holder the unpaid Principal of this Note, together with any accrued and unpaid Interest. The “Maturity Date” shall be June 30, 2014 or, (a) if extended at the option of FPCG pursuant to the terms of Section 3 hereof, then on such later date; (b) if accelerated at the option of Holder in accordance with the terms of Section 6 hereof, then on such earlier date; (c) the date on which the entire Principal, together with any accrued but unpaid Interest, is repaid; (d) if extended by mutual agreement of Holder and FPCG, then on such later date; or (e) the date on which the outstanding Principal, together with accrued but unpaid Interest, is otherwise reduced to zero, regardless of the nature of or reason for such reduction.

2. Interest. Interest accrues at the Interest Rate on all outstanding unpaid Principal owed under this Note and shall begin to accrue on the Issuance Date and may be paid from time to time in amounts as determined by FPCG up to, but not including, the date on which the entire Principal is repaid (each, an “Interest Date”). Interest accrues at the Interest Rate on all outstanding unpaid Principal owed under this Note. If Interest is not paid on the first business day of each year following the Issuance Date, it shall thereafter bear like interest as the Principal.

3. Maturity Date Extension. The Maturity Date of this Note may be extended (a) at the option of FPCG (which option may be exercised in FPCG’s sole and absolute discretion, for any reason or no reason at all), to September 30, 2014, or (b) upon mutual agreement of the Holder and FPCG. In the event that FPCG chooses to exercise the option set forth in clause (a) of this Section 3, FPCG shall deliver to the Holder written notice of such election on or prior to June 23, 2014.

4. Repayment by FPCG. FPCG may at any time and from time to time prepay all or any portion of the outstanding Principal and/or any accrued but unpaid Interest to the Holder without premium or penalty.

5. Intentionally Omitted.

6. Covenants.

(a) Call Right on Equity Financing. In the event that (a) FPCG completes an equity financing for its own account or for the account of one of its subsidiaries, and the aggregate gross proceeds of such entity exceed five million dollars ($5,000,000) or FPCG and its subsidiaries collectively incur more than Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($7,500,000) in new debt after the Issuance Date of this Note and without the written consent of holders of notes that represent a majority of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Notes (“Required Majority”), then the Holder may, at its option, declare by written notice to FPCG the unpaid Principal of the Note (together with all accrued but unpaid Interest thereon) to be immediately due and payable, and, in such event, FPCG shall immediately pay to the Holder all such amounts due and payable with respect to this Note.
