This Note has been entered into pursuant to the terms of a subscription agreement by and among the Borrower, the Holder and certain other holders (the “Other Holders”) of convertible promissory notes (the “Other Notes”), dated of even date herewith (the “Subscription Agreement”) for an aggregate Principal Amount of up to $4,000,000.  Unless otherwise separately defined herein, each capitalized term used in this Note shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Subscription Agreement.  The following terms shall apply to this Note:

1.1           Interest Rate.   Cash interest payable on this Note shall compound annually and accrue at the annual rate of ten percent (10%) from the Issue Date through the Maturity Date.  Interest shall be payable semi-annually in arrears on the last day of each six months commencing August 31, 2011, and 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.  Interest will be payable in cash or at the election of the Borrower, with shares of Common Stock provided (i) an Event of Default (as defined in Article IV) has not occurred, (ii) such Common Stock is immediately resellable pursuant to Rule 144 without transfer or volume restrictions, (iii) such payment in Common Stock would not cause the Holder to exceed the restrictions on ownership set forth in Section 2.3, and (iv) Borrower provides Holder not less than fifteen (15) business days prior notice of Borrower’s intention to pay interest with Common Stock.  Interest paid with shares of Common Stock shall be payable on the third business day after the date such interest would be due if paid in cash.  Common Stock employed to pay interest shall be valued at eighty percent (80%) of the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg L.P. for the Principal Market for the five (5) trading days ending on the due date of the interest payment being made with Common Stock.

1.2           Payment Grace Period.  The Borrower shall not have any grace period to pay any monetary amounts due under this Note.  After the Maturity Date and during the pendency of an Event of Default, (as defined in Article IV) a default interest rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum shall be in effect.

1.3           Conversion Privileges.  The Conversion Rights set forth in Article II shall remain in full force and effect immediately from the date hereof and until the Note is paid in full regardless of the occurrence of an Event of Default.  This Note shall be payable in full on the Maturity Date, unless previously converted into Common Stock in accordance with Article II hereof.

1.4           Pari Passu.   All payments made on this Note and the Other Notes and except as otherwise set forth herein all actions taken by the Borrower with respect to this Note and the Other Notes, including but not limited to mandatory conversion, shall be made and taken pari passu with respect to this Note and the Other Notes.

1.5           Application of Payments.  Payments made in connection with this Note shall be applied first to amounts due hereunder other than principal and interest, thereafter to Interest and finally to Principal Amount.

1.6           Miscellaneous.   Interest on this Note shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed.  Principal and interest on this Note and other payments in connection with this Note shall be payable at the Holder’s offices as designated above in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds without set-off, deduction or counterclaim.  Upon assignment of the interest of Holder in this Note, Borrower shall instead make its payment pursuant to the assignee’s instructions upon receipt of written notice thereof.

The Holder shall have the right to convert the principal and any interest due under this Note into Shares of the Borrower’s Common Stock, $0.00001 par value per share (“Common Stock”) as set forth below.

2.1.         Conversion into the Borrower’s Common Stock.

(a)           The Holder shall have the right from and after the date of the issuance of this Note and then at any time until this Note is fully paid, to convert any outstanding and unpaid principal portion of this Note, and accrued but unpaid interest, at the election of the Holder (the date of giving of such notice of conversion being a “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(b) hereof, determined as provided herein.  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.  The Holder will not be required to surrender the Note to the Borrower until the Note has been fully converted or satisfied.  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 Conversion Price.

(b)           Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.1(c) hereof, the conversion price (“Conversion Price”) per share shall be $0.50.

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

A.           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 1934 Act) is or shall become the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the 1934 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 (other than a reverse merger)  (in any such case, a “Fundamental  Transaction”),this Note, as to the unpaid principal portion thereof and accrued interest thereon, if any, 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.

B.           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.

C.           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.

D.           Share Issuance.   So long as this Note is outstanding, if the Borrower shall issue any Common Stock except for the Excepted Issuances (as defined in Section 12(a) of the Subscription Agreement),prior to the complete conversion or payment of this Note, for a consideration per share that is less than the Conversion Price that would be in effect at the time of such issue, then, and thereafter successively upon each such issuance, the 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 option to purchase Common Stock shall result in an adjustment to the 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 Conversion Price. Common Stock issued or issuable by the Borrower for no consideration will be deemed issuable or to have been issued for $0.00001 per share of Common Stock.  The reduction of the Conversion Price described in this paragraph is in addition to the other rights of the Holder described in the Subscription Agreement.

(d)           Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 2.1(c) above, the Borrower shall promptly, but not later than the second (2nd) business day after the effectiveness of the adjustment, provide notice to the Holder setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.  Failure to provide the foregoing notice is an Event of Default under this Note.

(e)           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 the Subscription Agreement.  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, upon surrender of the existing Note.

2.3.         Maximum Conversion.  The Holder shall not be entitled to convert on a 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 Holder 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 to determine whether the restriction contained in this Section 2.3 will limit any conversion hereunder and the extent such limitation applies and to which convertible or exercisable instrument or part thereof such limitation applies.  The Holder may waive the conversion limitation described in this Section 2.3, 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%.

3.1.         Redemption.  This Note may not be prepaid, converted, redeemed or called by the Borrower without the consent of the Holder except as described in this Note.

3.2.          Fundamental Transaction.  Upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction, then in addition to the Holder’s rights described in Section 2.1(c)(A), until twenty (20) business days after the Borrower notifies the Holder of the occurrence of the Fundamental Transaction, the Holder may elect to accelerate the Maturity Date as of the date of the Fundamental Transaction and receive payment for the then outstanding Principal Amount, and any other amount owed to the Holder pursuant to the Transaction Documents.

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:

6.6           Governing Law.  This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to conflicts of laws principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction.  Any action brought by either party against the other concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement must be brought only in the civil or state courts of New York or in the federal courts located in the State and county of New York.  Both parties and the individual signing this Agreement on behalf of the Borrower agree to submit to the jurisdiction of such courts.  The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable attorney’s fees and costs.  In the event that any provision of this Note is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or unenforceability of any other provision of this Note.

6.9           Facsimile Signature.  In the event that the Borrower’s signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, PDF, electronic signature or other similar electronic means, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the Borrower with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.

 

6.10         Shareholder Status.  The Holder shall not have rights as a shareholder of the Borrower with respect to unconverted portions of this Note.  However, the Holder will have the rights of a shareholder of the Borrower with respect to the Shares of Common Stock to be received after delivery by the Holder of a Conversion Notice to the Borrower.
