All interest calculations hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve (12) thirty (30) day months, shall compound daily and shall be payable in accordance with the terms of this Note.

 

1.        Payment; Prepayment.

 

1.1 Payment. All payments owing hereunder shall be in lawful money of the United States of America or Conversion Securities (as defined below), as provided for herein, and delivered to Lender at the address or bank account furnished to Borrower for that purpose. All payments shall be applied first to (a) costs of collection, if any, then to (b) fees and charges, if any, then to (c) accrued and unpaid interest, and thereafter, to (d) principal.

 

1.2 Prepayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall have the right to prepay, following written notice to the Lender (the “Prepayment Notice”), all or any portion of the Outstanding Balance (less such portion of the Outstanding Balance for which Borrower has received a Lender Conversion Notice (as defined below) prior to the delivery of the Prepayment Notice.

On the date fixed for prepayment (the “Prepayment Date”), the Borrower shall make payment of the Prepayment Amount, or upon the direction of the Lender as specified by the Lender in a writing to the Borrower (which shall direction to be sent to Borrower by the Lender at least one (2) Business Day prior to the Prepayment Date)

 

2.       Security. This Note is unsecured.

 

3.       Conversion Prior to Maturity Date.

 

3.1 Automatic Conversion upon a Qualified Financing. In the event that Borrower issues and sells shares of its Equity Securities (as defined hereinafter) on or before the Maturity Date, in an equity financing with total proceeds to the Borrower, from third-parties other than the Lender or any of its Affiliates, of not less than ten million dollars ($10,000,000) (and excluding the conversion of this Note, and conversion or cancellation of other indebtedness) (a “Qualified Financing”), then the Outstanding Balance shall automatically convert in whole without any further action by the Lender into such Equity Securities (as defined below) sold in the Qualified Financing (the “Mandatory Conversion”) at a conversion price equal to eighty percent (80%) of the price per share paid by the investors purchasing such Equity Securities in the Qualified Financing (the “Mandatory Conversion Price”). The number of Equity Securities to be issued and delivered to Lender (the “Mandatory Equity Securities”), on the consummation of a Qualified Financing, shall be determined as per the following formula: the Outstanding Balance (on the date of the consummation of the Qualified Financing) divided by the Mandatory Conversion Price. For purposes of this Note, “Equity Securities” shall mean Borrower’s Common Stock, Preferred Stock (as defined in the Borrower’s Certificate of Incorporation) or any securities (other than debt securities) conferring the right to purchase Borrower’s Common Stock, Preferred Stock or securities convertible into, or exchangeable for (with or without additional consideration), Borrower’s Common Stock or Preferred Stock (excluding the Notes), in each case issued in the Qualified Financing, as the case may be, following the date hereof, except that such defined term shall not include any security granted, issued and/or sold by Borrower to any employee, director or consultant in such capacity. In connection with the conversion of this Note into Equity Securities, the Borrower and Lender shall further enter into such other agreements which the Borrower enters into with the other investors in the Qualified Financing. The Borrower shall deliver the Mandatory Equity Securities to Lender in accordance with the Qualified Financing’s governing documents.

3.2 Lender’s Optional Conversion. Notwithstanding Section 3.1, Lender has the right at any time after June 30, 2023 until the Outstanding Balance has been paid in full, at its election, by delivery to the Borrower of a Lender Conversion Notice (as defined below) to convert (“Lender Optional Conversion”) all or any portion of the Outstanding Balance into shares of fully paid and non-assessable shares (“Lender Conversion Shares”) of the Borrower’s common stock, $0.00001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), of Borrower as per the following conversion formula: the number of Lender Conversion Shares equals the amount being converted (the “Conversion Amount”) divided by the Conversion Price (as defined below). Conversion notices in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each, a “Lender Conversion Notice”) may be effectively delivered to Borrower by any method set forth in Section 22 of this Note; the Borrower shall deliver the Lender Conversion Shares from any Lender Optional Conversion to Lender in accordance with Section 3.3 below.

 

3.2.1 Conversion Price. Subject to adjustment as set forth in this Note, the price at which Lender has the right to convert all or any portion of the Outstanding Balance into Stock is $0.45 per share, representing a fifty (50%) percent premium to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on March 17, 2022, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Issuance Date (the “Conversion Price”).

 

3.2.2 Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. Without limiting any provision hereof, if Borrower at any time on or after the date of this Note subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. Without limiting any provision hereof, if Borrower at any time on or after the Effective Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased. Any adjustment pursuant to this Section 3.2.2 shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination. If any event requiring an adjustment under this Section 3.2.2 occurs during the period that a Conversion Price is calculated hereunder, then the calculation of such Conversion Price shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect such event.

 

3.2.3 Other Events. In the event that Borrower (or any subsidiary) shall take any action to which the provisions hereof are not strictly applicable, or, if applicable, would not operate to protect Lender from dilution or if any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 3.2.3 but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features), then Borrower’s board of directors shall in good faith determine and implement an appropriate adjustment in the Conversion Price so as to protect the rights of Lender, provided that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 3.2.3 will increase the Conversion Price as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 3.2.3, provided further that if Lender does not accept such adjustments as appropriately protecting its interests hereunder against such dilution, then Borrower’s board of directors and Lender shall agree, in good faith, upon an independent investment bank of nationally recognized standing to make such appropriate adjustments, whose determination shall be final and binding and whose fees and expenses shall be borne by Borrower.

3.3 Method of Lender Optional Conversion Share Delivery. On or before the close of business on the fifth (5th) Trading Day following the date of delivery of a Lender Conversion Notice (the “Delivery Date”), Borrower shall, provided it is DWAC Eligible at such time and such Conversion Shares are eligible for delivery via DWAC, deliver or cause its transfer agent to deliver the applicable Conversion Shares electronically via DWAC to the account designated by Lender in the applicable Lender Conversion Notice. If Borrower is not DWAC Eligible or such Conversion Shares are not eligible for delivery via DWAC, it shall deliver to Lender or its broker (as designated in the Lender Conversion Notice), via reputable overnight courier, a certificate representing the number of Lender Conversion Shares equal to the number of Lender Conversion Shares to which Lender shall be entitled, registered in the name of Lender or its designee. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower has not met its obligation to deliver the Lender Conversion Shares by the Delivery Date unless Lender or its broker, as applicable, has actually received the certificate representing the applicable Conversion Shares no later than the close of business on the relevant Delivery Date pursuant to the terms set forth above. Moreover, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event Borrower or its transfer agent refuses to deliver any Conversion Shares without a restrictive securities legend to Lender on grounds that such issuance is in violation of Rule 144 (“Rule 144”) as promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). Borrower shall deliver or cause its transfer agent to deliver the applicable Conversion Shares to Lender with a restricted securities legend, but otherwise in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3. In conjunction therewith, Borrower will also deliver to Lender a written explanation from its counsel or its transfer agent’s counsel opining as to why the issuance of the applicable Lender Conversion Shares would be in violation of Rule 144.

 

3.4 No Fractional Equity Securities. No fractional securities will be issued upon Conversion. In lieu of a fractional share of any equity security to which Lender would otherwise be entitled hereunder, the Borrower will pay the cash value of such fractional security to Lender within ten (10) days of Conversion. The cash value of a fractional share of Common Stock shall be determined according to the applicable Conversion Price.

 

3.5 Effect of Conversion. Upon Conversion of the Outstanding Balance in full, the Borrower shall be forever released from all its obligations and liabilities under this Note.

 

4.        Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an event of default (“Event of Default”):

 

4.1 Failure to Pay Principal and Interest. The Borrower fails to pay the principal hereof or interest thereon when due on this Note, whether at maturity or upon acceleration and such breach continues for a period of five (5) Business Days after written notice from the Lender.

 

4.2  Conversion and the Shares. The Borrower fails to issue Conversion Securities in accordance with the terms of this Note. It is an obligation of the Borrower to remain current in its obligations to its transfer agent. It shall be an event of default of this Note, if a conversion of this Note is delayed, hindered or frustrated due to a balance owed by the Borrower to its transfer agent. If at the option of the Lender, the Lender advances any funds to the Borrower’s transfer agent in order to process a conversion, such advanced funds shall be paid by the Borrower to the Lender within forty-eight (48) hours of a demand from the Lender.

 

4.3 Breach of Covenants. The Borrower breaches any material covenant or other material term or condition contained in this Note and any collateral documents including but not limited to the Purchase Agreement and such breach continues for a period of twenty (20) days after written notice thereof to the Borrower from the Lender.

 

4.4 Breach of Representations and Warranties. Any representation or warranty of the Borrower made herein or in any agreement, statement or certificate given in writing pursuant hereto or in connection herewith (including, without limitation, the Purchase Agreement), shall be false or misleading in any material respect when made and the breach of which has (or with the passage of time will have) a material adverse effect on the rights of the Lender with respect to this Note or the Purchase Agreement.

 

4.5 Receiver or Trustee. The Borrower or any subsidiary of the Borrower shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver or trustee for it or for a substantial part of its property or business, or such a receiver or trustee shall otherwise be appointed.

 

 3 

 

4.6 Bankruptcy. Bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or liquidation proceedings or other proceedings, voluntary or involuntary, for relief under any bankruptcy law or any law for the relief of debtors shall be instituted by or against the Borrower or any subsidiary of the Borrower.

  

4.7 Delisting of Common Stock. The Borrower shall fail to maintain the listing of the Common Stock on at least one of the OTC quotation platforms (which specifically includes the quotation platforms maintained by the OTC Markets Group) or an equivalent replacement exchange, the Nasdaq National Market, the Nasdaq SmallCap Market, the New York Stock Exchange, or the American Stock Exchange.

  

4.8 Liquidation. Any dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of Borrower or any substantial portion of its business.

 

4.9 Cessation of Operations. Any cessation of operations by Borrower or Borrower admits it is otherwise generally unable to pay its debts as such debts become due, provided, however, that any disclosure of the Borrower’s ability to continue as a “going concern” shall not be an admission that the Borrower cannot pay its debts as they become due.

 

4.10 Cross-Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the other related or companion documents, a breach or default by the Borrower of any covenant or other term or condition contained in any of the Other Agreements, after the passage of all applicable notice and cure or grace periods, shall, at the option of the Lender, be considered a default under this Note and the Other Agreements, in which event the Lender shall be entitled (but in no event required) to apply all rights and remedies of the Lender under the terms of this Note and the Other Agreements by reason of a default under said Other Agreement or hereunder. “Other Agreements” means, collectively, all agreements and instruments between, among or by: (1) the Borrower, and, or for the benefit of, (2) the Lender and any affiliate of the Lender, including, without limitation, promissory notes.

 

14. 11  Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default that has not been timely cured as provided herein:

 

14. 11.1 Acceleration of Note. If there shall be any Event of Default hereunder, in addition to any other remedies that the Lender may have, at the option and upon written notice to the Borrower (which election and notice shall not be required in any event in the case of an Event of Default under Section 4.5 or 4.6) this Note shall accelerate and the then Outstanding Balance shall become due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, anything contained herein or in the documents evidencing the same to the contrary notwithstanding.

 

14. 11.2 Issuance and Delivery of Conversion Shares. In the event of a default pursuant to Section 4.2, the Lender shall have the right to require the Borrower to issue and deliver to the Lender any of the Conversion Securities not otherwise issued and delivered to the Lender pursuant to either a Mandatory Conversion or the Lenders Optional Conversion.

 

14. 11.3  Waiver of Default. The Lender may (and upon execution of an instrument or instruments in writing by the Lender, the Lender shall be deemed to) rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Event of Default; in such event, the Lender and the Borrower will be restored to their respective former positions, rights and obligations hereunder. Any Event of Default so waived will be deemed to have been cured and not to be continuing, but no such waiver will extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair any right of the Lender consequent thereon.

 

4.17 Attorneys’ Fees. In the event of any default hereunder, the Borrower shall pay all reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs incurred by Lender in enforcing and collecting this Note.

The Borrower shall not affect any transaction described in this Section 8.1 unless (a) it first gives, to the extent practicable, ten (10) days prior written notice (but in any event at least five (5) days prior written notice) of the record date of the special meeting of shareholders to approve, or if there is no such record date, the consummation of, such merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar event or sale of assets (during which time the Lender shall be entitled to convert this Note) and (b) the resulting successor or acquiring entity (if not the Borrower) assumes by written instrument the obligations of this Note.

Borrower acknowledges that this Note is an unconditional, valid, binding and enforceable obligation of Borrower not subject to offset, deduction or counterclaim of any kind.
