The maximum principal sum payable under this Note shall be $1,258,555.56.

 

The principal balance of this Note outstanding at any time shall bear interest from the date of disbursement until full payment, conversion or other satisfaction of the principal hereof as set forth in the Loan Agreement dated as of October 7, 2020, among the Borrower and the Lender (as modified and supplemented and in effect from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”). All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Note shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Loan Agreement. Each Disbursement made by the Lender to the Borrower pursuant to the Loan Agreement, and all payments made on account of principal thereof, shall be recorded by the Lender and, prior to any transfer hereof, endorsed on the grid attached hereto which is part of this Note; provided that the failure of the Lender to make any such recordation or endorsement shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under the Loan Agreement. Borrower shall make all payments to the Lender of principal under this Note in the manner provided in and otherwise in accordance with the Loan Agreement. The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall be due and payable in full on the Final Payment Date

2. No Transfer and Exchange. Subject to compliance with this Section 2, the holder of this Note may, prior to the Final Payment Date or the conversion in full of such Note in accordance with Section 2.9 of the Loan Agreement, surrender such Note at the principal office of the Borrower for transfer or exchange. Within a reasonable time after notice to the Borrower from such holder of its intention to make such exchange and without expense to such holder, except for any transfer or similar tax which may be imposed on the transfer or exchange, the Borrower shall issue in exchange therefor another note or notes for the same aggregate principal amount as the unpaid principal amount of the Note so surrendered, having the same maturity and rate of interest, containing the same provisions and subject to the same terms and conditions as the Note so surrendered. Each new Note shall be made payable to such person or persons, or transferees, as the holder of such surrendered Note may designate, and such transfer or exchange shall be made in such a manner that no gain or loss of principal or interest shall result therefrom.

4. Conversion of Note. The Balance shall be convertible into Conversion Securities in accordance with the terms of Section 2.9 of the Loan Agreement. This Note does not by itself entitle the Lender to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Borrower. In the absence of conversion of this Note, no provisions of this Note, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Lender, shall cause the Lender to be a stockholder of the Borrower for any purpose.

 

5. Events of Default. If default is made in the punctual payment of principal or any other amount under this Note in accordance with the Loan Agreement, or if any other Event of Default has occurred, this Note shall, at the Payee’s option exercised at any time upon or after the occurrence of any such payment default or other Event of Default, become immediately due and payable.
