Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company hereby promises to pay, prior to the Maturity Date, to the Holder ten percent (10%) of the net proceeds of each closing of a firmly underwritten public offering or a private placement of the Company’s securities subsequent to the issuance of this Note, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of at least $3 million (a “Qualifi ed Offering”), with all such Qualified Offering closings, in the aggregate, not to exceed $3 million. Upon subsequent closings of the Qualified Offering resulting in net proceeds to the Company in excess of $3 million, the Company shall repay Holder, at the final closing of such offering, the remaining unpaid principal balance on the Note, which payment (or payments) shall not exceed, in the aggregate, one hundred percent (100%) of the principal balance of the Note hereof, plus accrued interest.  Payment for all amounts due hereunder shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in lawful tender of the United States, to an account designated in writing by the Holder.
