(b)           Common Stock Issuance Upon Conversion.

 

(i)           Conversion Date Procedures.  Upon conversion of this Note pursuant to Section 3(a) above, the outstanding Principal Amount and Interest Amount hereunder shall be converted into such number of fully paid, validly issued and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, free of any liens, claims and encumbrances, as is determined by dividing the outstanding Principal Amount and Interest Amount being converted by the then applicable Conversion Price.  The date of any Conversion Notice hereunder shall be referred to herein as the “Conversion Date”.  If a conversion under this Note cannot be effected in full for any reason, or if the Holder is converting less than all of the outstanding Principal Amount and Interest Amount hereunder pursuant to a Conversion Notice, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder (but no later than five Trading Days after the Conversion Date) a Note for such outstanding Principal Amount and Interest Amount as has not been converted if this Note has been surrendered to the Company for partial conversion.  The Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company upon any conversion hereunder unless the full outstanding Principal Amount and Interest Amount represented by this Note is being converted.  The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the outstanding Principal Amount and Interest Amount so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion.

 

(ii)          Stock Certificates or DWAC.  The Company will deliver to the Holder not later than three (3) Trading Days after the Conversion Date, a certificate or certificates, which shall be free of restrictive legends and trading restrictions if the registration statement has been declared effective, representing the number of shares of Common Stock being acquired upon the conversion of this Note.  In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, provided the Company's transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) program, upon request of the Holder, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit such shares issuable upon conversion to the Holder (or its designee), by crediting the account of the Holder’s (or such designee’s) prime broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”)system (provided that the same time periods herein as for stock certificates shall apply).  If in the case of any conversion hereunder, such certificate or certificates are not delivered to or as directed by the Holder by the fifth Trading Day after the Conversion Date, the Holder shall be entitled by written notice to the Company at any time on or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates thereafter, to rescind such conversion, in which event the Company shall immediately return this Note tendered for conversion.  If the conversion has not been rescinded in accordance with the previous sentence and the Company fails to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates (or shares through DTC) pursuant to this Section 3(b) (free of any restrictions on transfer or legends, if such shares have been registered) in accordance herewith, prior to the seventh Trading Day after the Conversion Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, an amount equal to 1% of the Principal Amount per month until such delivery takes place (pro rated for partial months).

(ii)          Distributions.  If the Company or any of its subsidiaries, at any time while the Note is outstanding, shall distribute to all holders of Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness or assets or cash or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, then concurrently with such distributions to holders of Common Stock, the Company shall distribute to holder of the Note the amount of such indebtedness, assets, cash or rights or warrants which the holder of Note would have received had all the Note then held been converted into Common Stock at the applicable Conversion Price immediately prior to the record date for such distribution.

 

(iii)         Rounding of Adjustments. All calculations under this Section 3 or Section 2 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.

 

(iv)        Notice of Adjustments. Whenever any Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 3(c)(i) or (ii) above, the Company shall promptly deliver to the holder of the Note, a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment, provided that any failure to so provide such notice shall not affect the automatic adjustment hereunder.

 

(v)         Change in Control Transactions.  In case of any Change in Control Transaction, the Holder shall have the right thereafter to, at its option, (A) convert this Note, in whole or in part, at the then applicable Conversion Price into the shares of stock and other securities, cash and/or property receivable upon or deemed to be held by holders of Common Stock following such Change in Control Transaction, and the Holder shall be entitled upon such event to receive such amount of securities, cash or property as the shares of the Common Stock of the Company into which this Note could have been converted immediately prior to such Change in Control Transaction would have been entitled if such conversion were permitted, subject to such further applicable adjustments set forth in this Section 3 or (B) require the Company or its successor to redeem this Note, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the outstanding Principal Amount and Interest Amount being redeemed.  The terms of any such Change in Control Transaction shall include such terms so as to continue to give to the Holders the right to receive the amount of securities, cash and/or property upon any conversion or redemption following such Change in Control Transaction to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon such conversion would have been entitled in such Change in Control Transaction, and default interest and Interest Amounts payable hereunder shall be in cash or such new securities and/or property, at the Holder’s option.  This provision shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or share exchanges.
