SECURED CONVERTIBLE NOTE

Issuance Date: January 15, 2020 Principal: U.S. $[ ___________ ]

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Security Devices International Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby promises to pay to [Insert Name] or registered assigns (“Holder”) the amount set out above as the Principal (as reduced pursuant to the terms hereof pursuant to redemption, conversion or otherwise, the “Principal”) when due, whether upon the Maturity Date (as defined below), acceleration, redemption or otherwise (in each case in accordance with the terms hereof) and to pay interest (“Interest”) on any outstanding Principal at the rate equal to the then applicable Interest Rate (as defined below), from October 31, 2019 until the same becomes due and payable, whether upon an Interest Date (as defined below), the Maturity Date, acceleration, conversion, redemption or otherwise (in each case, in accordance with the terms hereof). This Secured Convertible Note (including all Secured Convertible Notes issues in exchange, transfer, or replacement hereof, this “Note”) is one of an issue of Convertible Notes issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement (as defined below) on the Closing Date (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) (collectively, the “Notes” and such other Convertible Notes, the “Other Notes”). Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 28. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement.

     (1) MATURITY. On the Maturity Date, the Holder shall surrender this Note to the Company and the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash representing all outstanding Principal, accrued and unpaid Interest and accrued and unpaid Late Charges, if any. The “Maturity Date” shall be April 15, 2020, but may be extended at the option of the Holder through the date that is 10 days after the consummation of a Change of Control in the event that a Change of Control is publicly announced or a Change of Control Notice (as defined in Section 5(b)) is delivered prior to the Maturity Date. Except as specifically set forth herein, this Note is not prepayable.

     (2) INTEREST; INTEREST RATE.

          (a) Interest. Interest on this Note shall commence accruing on the Issuance Date and shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and shall be payable in arrears on the last day of each April and October during the period beginning on the Issuance Date and ending on, and including, the Maturity Date (each, an “Interest Date”) with the first Interest Date being April 15, 2020. Interest shall be payable on each Interest Date in cash. Prior to the payment of Interest on an Interest Date, Interest on this Note shall accrue at the rate of 10% per annum (the “Interest Rate”).

          (b) Default Rate. From and after the occurrence of an Event of Default and notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2(b) hereof, the Interest Rate shall be increased to 15.0% (the “Default Rate”). In the event that such Event of Default is subsequently cured, the adjustment referred to in the preceding sentence shall cease to be effective as of the date of such cure; provided that the Interest calculated at the Default Rate during the continuance of such Event of Default shall continue to apply to the extent it relates to the days after the occurrence of such Event of Default through and including the date of cure of such Event of Default.

-2-


          (c) Maximum Effective Interest Rate: Notwithstanding any other provision of the Securities Purchase Agreement or this Note (including, for certainty, Section 4(b) (Redemption Right) and Section 5 (Rights Upon Fundamental Transaction And Change Of Control)), the effective rate of interest per annum may not exceed 25% and any payments otherwise required to be made to the Holder will be reduced as necessary for that purpose.

     (3) CONVERSION OF NOTES. This Note shall be convertible into shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3.

          (a) Conversion Right. Subject to the provisions of Section 3(d), at any time or times on or after the Issuance Date, the Holder shall be entitled to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid Conversion Amount (as defined below) into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock in accordance with Section 3(c), at the Conversion Rate (as defined below). The Company shall not issue any fraction of a share of Common Stock upon any conversion. If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company shall round such fraction of a share of Common Stock up to the nearest whole share. The Company shall pay any and all taxes that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Common Stock upon conversion of any Conversion Amount.

          (b) Conversion Rate. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any Conversion Amount pursuant to Section 3(a) shall be determined by dividing (x) such Conversion Amount by (y) the Conversion Price (such number of shares, the “Conversion Rate”). For the purposes of this Note:

               (i) “Conversion Amount” means the portion of the Principal to be converted, redeemed or otherwise with respect to which this determination is being made.

               (ii) “Conversion Price” means, as of any Conversion Date (as defined below) or other date of determination a price equal to USD$0.15, subject to adjustment as provided herein.

          (c) Mechanics of Conversion.

               (i) Optional Conversion. To convert any Conversion Amount into shares of Common Stock on any date (a “Conversion Date”), the Holder shall (A) transmit by facsimile (or otherwise deliver), for receipt on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on such date, a copy of an executed notice of conversion in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (the “Conversion Notice”) to the Company and (B) if required by Section 3(c)(v), surrender this Note to a common carrier for delivery to the Company as soon as practicable on or following such date (or an indemnification undertaking with respect to this Note in the case of its loss, theft or destruction). Promptly following the date of receipt of a Conversion Notice, the Company shall transmit by facsimile a confirmation of receipt of such Conversion Notice to the Holder and the Company's transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”). On or before the fifth Business Day following the date of receipt of a Conversion Notice (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall (1) (X) provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program and so long as the certificates therefor are not required to bear a legend pursuant to Section 5(c) of the Securities Purchase Agreement, credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled to the Holder's or its designee's balance account with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system or (Y) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, issue and deliver to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled, which certificate shall not bear any restrictive legend unless the certificate is required to bear such a legend pursuant to Section 5(c) of the Securities Purchase Agreement, and (2) pay to the Holder in cash an amount equal to the sum of (A) the amount of any accrued and unpaid Interest on the applicable Conversion Amount being converted through the Conversion Date and (B) any accrued and unpaid Late Charges on such Conversion Amount and Interest. Delivery of physical certificates shall be deemed to have been made if delivered personally or when delivered to a nationally recognized overnight carrier. If this Note is physically surrendered for conversion as required by Section 3(c)(iii) and the outstanding Principal of this Note is greater than the Conversion Amount, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than three Business Days after receipt of this Note and at its own expense, issue and deliver to the holder a new Note (in accordance with Section 18(d)) representing the outstanding Principal not converted. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of this Note shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock on the Conversion Date.

-3-


               (ii) Company's Failure to Timely Convert. If the Company shall fail to issue a certificate to the Holder or credit the Holder's balance account with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon conversion of any Conversion Amount on or prior to the date which is five Business Days after the Conversion Date (a “Conversion Failure”), then the Company shall pay to the Holder payments (“Conversion Default Payments”) for a Conversion Failure in the amount of (i) (N/365), multiplied by (ii) an amount equal to the amount by which (x) the highest Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock during the period beginning on the date the Conversion Notice giving rise to the Conversion Failure in accordance with this Section 3(c)(ii) is transmitted (the “Conversion Failure Date”) and ending on the date immediately preceding the date on which the applicable Conversion Default Payment is made exceeds (y) the Conversion Price in respect of such Conversion Amount, multiplied by (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock the Company failed to so deliver in such Conversion Failure, multiplied by (iv) .18, where N equals the number of days from the Conversion Failure Date to the date that the Company effects the full conversion of the Conversion Amount which gave rise to the Conversion Failure. The accrued Conversion Default Payments for each calendar month shall be paid in cash to the Holder by the fifth day of the month following the month in which it has accrued. In addition to the foregoing, if within five Trading Days after the Company's receipt of the facsimile copy of a Conversion Notice the Company shall fail to issue and deliver a certificate to the Holder or credit the Holder's balance account with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon such Holder's conversion of any Conversion Amount, and if on or after such Trading Day the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within three Business Days after the Holder's request and in the Holder's discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company's obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such Common Stock) shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such Common Stock and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Common Stock times (B) the Closing Sale Price on the Conversion Date. Nothing herein shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue actual damages for the Company’s failure to maintain a sufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock or to otherwise issue shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, and the Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief).

-4-


               (iii) Book-Entry. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of any portion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company unless (A) the full Principal amount of this Note is being converted or (B) the Holder has provided the Company with prior written notice (which notice may be included in a Conversion Notice) requesting physical surrender and reissue of this Note. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the Principal converted and the dates of such conversions (and the Interest and Late Charges paid with respect thereto) 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 conversion.

               (iv) Pro Rata Conversion; Disputes. In the event that the Company receives a Conversion Notice from more than one holder of Notes for the same Conversion Date and the Company can convert some, but not all, of such portions of the Notes submitted for conversion, the Company, subject to Section 3(d), shall convert from each holder of Notes electing to have Notes converted on such date a pro rata amount of such holder's portion of its Notes submitted for conversion based on the principal amount of Notes submitted for conversion on such date by such holder relative to the aggregate principal amount of all Notes submitted for conversion on such date. In the event of a dispute as to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder in connection with a conversion of this Note, the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock not in dispute and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 23.

          (d) Limitations on Conversions and Payments in Shares of Common Stock; Beneficial Ownership. The Company shall not be obligated to effect any conversion of this Note or pay any amounts due hereunder in Common Stock, and the Holder of this Note shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Note pursuant to Section 3(a) or to require the Company to pay any amounts due hereunder in Common Stock, in each case to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion or payment, the Holder (together with the Holder's affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion or payment. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or payment of or in connection with this Note with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) conversion of the remaining, unconverted portion of this Note beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any Other Notes or Warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 3(d), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). For purposes of this Section 3(d), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company's most recent Form 10-K, Form 10-Q or Form 8-K, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within one Trading Day confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Note, by the Holder or its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 19.99% specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company, and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and not to any other holder of Notes.

               (iv) the Company's failure to pay to the Holder any amount of Principal, Interest, Late Charges or other amounts when and as due under this Note (including, without limitation, the Company's failure to pay any redemption payments, premiums or other amounts hereunder) or any other Transaction Document (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) except in the case of a failure to pay Interest and Late Charges when and as due, in which case only if such failure continues for a period of at least five Trading Days;

               (v) the Company shall either (i) fail to pay, when due, or within any applicable grace period, any payment with respect to any Indebtedness in excess of $250,000 due to any third party, other than, with respect to unsecured Indebtedness only, payments contested by the Company in good faith by proper proceedings and with respect to which adequate reserves have been set aside for the payment thereof in accordance with GAAP, or otherwise be in breach or violation of any agreement for monies owed or owing in an amount in excess of $250,000, which breach or violation permits the other party thereto to declare a default or otherwise accelerate amounts due thereunder, or (ii) suffer to exist any other circumstance or event that would, with or without the passage of time or the giving of notice, result in a default or event of default under any agreement binding the Company, which default or event of default would or is likely to have a material adverse effect on the business, operations, properties, prospects or financial condition of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, individually or in the aggregate;

               (vi) the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, pursuant to or within the meaning of Title 11, U.S. Code, or the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada), or any similar Federal, foreign or state law for the relief of debtors (collectively, “Bankruptcy Law”), (A) commences a voluntary case, (B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case, (C) consents to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator or similar official (a “Custodian”), (D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors or (E) admits in writing that it is generally unable to pay its debts as they become due;

               (viii) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or liquidation proceedings or other proceedings for the relief of debtors shall be instituted by or against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and, if instituted against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries by a third party, shall not be dismissed within 60 days of their initiation;

               (ix) a final judgment or judgments for the payment of money aggregating in excess of $500,000 are rendered against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, which judgments are not, within 60 days after the entry thereof, bonded, discharged or stayed pending appeal, or are not discharged within 60 days after the expiration of such stay; provided, however, that any judgment that is covered by insurance or an indemnity from a credit worthy party shall not be included in calculating the $500,000 amount set forth above;

-7-


               (x) the Company breaches any representation, warranty, covenant (other than the covenants set forth in Section 14 of this Note) or other term or condition of any Transaction Document, except, in the case of a breach of a covenant which is curable, only if such breach continues for a period of at least 10 consecutive days after written notice thereof to the Company by the Holder;

               (xii) the Company fails to remove any restrictive legend on any certificate or any shares of Common Stock issued to the holders of Notes upon conversion of the Notes as and when required by the Notes or the Securities Purchase Agreement (a “Legend Removal Failure”), and any such failure continues uncured for five Business Days after the Company has been notified thereof in writing by the holder; or

               (xiii) any Event of Default (as defined in the Other Notes) occurs with respect to any Other Notes.

          (b) Redemption Right. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to this Note or any Other Note, the Company shall within one Business Day deliver written notice thereof via confirmed facsimile and overnight courier (an “Event of Default Notice”) to the Holder. At any time after the earlier of the Holder's receipt of an Event of Default Notice and the Holder becoming aware of an Event of Default, the Holder may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of this Note by delivering written notice thereof (the “Event of Default Redemption Notice”) to the Company, which Event of Default Redemption Notice shall indicate the amount of Principal of this Note the Holder is electing to redeem. Each portion of the Principal amount of this Note subject to redemption by the Company pursuant to this Section 4(b) shall be redeemed by the Company at a price (the “Event of Default Redemption Price”) equal to 110% of the sum of (i) any accrued and unpaid Interest on the Conversion Amount being redeemed, plus (ii) any accrued and unpaid Late Charges on such Conversion Amount and Interest, plus (iii) the greater of (A) the sum of (1) the Conversion Amount to be redeemed and (2) an amount equal to 100% of the Interest that would have been earned on the Conversion Amount from the Conversion Date through the Maturity Date., and (B) the product of (1) the Conversion Rate with respect to such Conversion Amount in effect at such time as the Holder delivers an Event of Default Redemption Notice, and (2) the highest Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock during the period beginning on the date immediately preceding such Event of Default and ending on the date immediately preceding the payment of the Event of Default Redemption Price. Redemptions required by this Section 4(b) shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 12, to the extent applicable. To the extent redemptions required by this Section 4(b) are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of this Note by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4, until the Event of Default Redemption Price (together with any interest thereon) is paid in full, the Conversion Amount submitted for redemption under this Section 4(b) may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Common Stock pursuant to Section 3 hereof. The parties hereto agree that in the event of the Company's redemption of any portion of this Note under this Section 4(b), the Holder's damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties' inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any premium due under this Section 4(b) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holder's actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty.

-8-


     (5) RIGHTS UPON FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTION AND CHANGE OF CONTROL.

          (a) Assumption. The Company shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction unless (i) the Successor Entity and, if an entity other than the Successor Entity is the entity whose capital stock or assets the holders of the Common Stock are entitled to receive as a result of such Fundamental Transaction, such other entity (the “Other Entity”), assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Note and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5(a) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance satisfactory to the Required Holders and approved by the Required Holders prior to such Fundamental Transaction (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), including agreements to deliver to each holder of Notes in exchange for such Notes a security of the Successor Entity or Other Entity, as applicable, evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to the Notes and with appropriate provisions such that the rights and interests of the Holder and the economic value of this Note are in no way diminished by such Fundamental Transaction, including, without limitation, having a principal amount and interest rate equal to the principal amounts and the interest rates of the Notes held by such holder and having similar ranking to the Notes and reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders, and (ii) the Successor Entity or the Other Entity, as applicable (including its Parent Entity), is a publicly traded corporation whose common stock is quoted on or listed for trading on an Eligible Market. Upon the occurrence of any Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity or the Other Entity, as applicable, shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Note referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity or the Other Entity, as applicable), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Note with the same effect as if such Successor Entity or such Other Entity, as applicable, had been named as the Company herein. Upon consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity or the Other Entity, as applicable, shall deliver to the Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon conversion or redemption of this Note at any time after the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the shares of the Company's Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) issuable upon the conversion or redemption of the Notes prior to such Fundamental Transaction, such shares of publicly traded common stock (or its equivalent) of the Successor Entity or the Other Entity, as applicable, as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Note. The provisions of this Section shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the conversion or redemption of this Note.

-9-


     (b) Redemption Right.

          At least 45 days before the consummation of a Change of Control, but in no event later than 15 days prior to the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote with respect thereto (or, with respect to a tender offer, or a change in the Board of Directors, if the Company is unable to comply with this time requirement because of the nature of the Change of Control, as soon as the Company reasonably believes that the Change of Control is to be consummated), but not prior to the public announcement of such Change of Control, the Company shall deliver written notice thereof via facsimile and overnight courier to the Holder (a “Change of Control Notice”). If the terms of a Change of Control change materially from those set forth in a Change of Control Notice, the Company shall deliver a new Change of Control Notice and the time periods in this clause (b) shall be calculated based upon the Holder's receipt of the later Change of Control Notice. At any time during the period (the “Change of Control Period”) beginning after the Holder's receipt of a Change of Control Notice and ending on the date that is thirty (30) days after delivery of the Change of Control Notice, the Holder may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the outstanding Principal of this Note by delivering written notice thereof (“Change of Control Redemption Notice”) to the Company, which Change of Control Redemption Notice shall indicate the portion of this Note that the Holder is electing to redeem. The portion of this Note subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 5 (the “Redemption Portion”) shall be redeemed by the Company for the Change of Control Redemption Price (as defined in Section 5(b)(ii)), which shall be payable in cash.

          As used in this Section 5, the “Change of Control Redemption Price” shall mean the greater of:

          (A) the sum of (x) the aggregate consideration that the Holder would be entitled to receive in connection with a Change of Control if the Holder were to fully convert (without giving effect to any limitations on conversion set forth herein) the outstanding Principal of this Note into Common Stock pursuant to Section 3(a) hereof immediately prior to the consummation of such Change of Control, plus (y) any accrued and unpaid Interest thereon through but excluding the effective date of the Change of Control and any accrued and unpaid Late Charges on such Principal and Interest; or

          (B) an amount equal to the sum of (x) the outstanding Principal of this Note plus (y) any accrued and unpaid Interest thereon through but excluding the effective date of the Change of Control and any accrued and unpaid Late Charges on such Principal and Interest plus (z) an amount equal to 100% of the Interest that would have been earned on this Note from the effective date of the Change of Control through the Maturity Date.

               (i) Redemptions required by this Section 5 shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 12 to the extent applicable and shall have priority over payments to stockholders in connection with a Change of Control. To the extent redemptions required by this Section 5(b) are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of this Note by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5, until the Change of Control Redemption Price (together with any interest thereon) is paid in full, the Conversion Amount submitted for redemption under this Section 5(b) (together with any interest thereon) may be converted, in whole or in part, subject to Section 3(d), by the Holder into Common Stock, or in the event the Conversion Date is after the consummation of the Change of Control, shares of stock or equity interests of the Successor Entity or Other Entity, as applicable, substantially equivalent to the Company's Common Stock pursuant to Section 3. The parties hereto agree that in the event of the Company's redemption of any portion of this Note under this Section 5(b), the Holder's damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties' inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any redemption premium due under this Section 5(b) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holder's actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty.

     (6) RIGHTS UPON CERTAIN CORPORATE EVENTS.

     In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of any Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange for shares of Common Stock (a “Corporate Event”), the Company shall make appropriate provision to insure that the Holder will thereafter have the right to receive upon a conversion of this Note at any time after the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction but prior to the Maturity Date, in lieu of the shares of the Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) purchasable upon the conversion of this Note prior to such Fundamental Transaction, such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction had this Note been converted immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of this Note, but after the calculation of such number of shares, the provisions of Section 3(d) shall continue to apply). Any provision made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders. The provisions of this Section shall apply similarly and equally to successive Corporate Events and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the conversion or redemption of this Note.

     (7) RIGHTS UPON ISSUANCE OF OTHER SECURITIES.

          (a) Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Issuance of Common Stock. If and whenever after the Issuance Date, the Company issues or sells, or in accordance with this Section 7(a) is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock (including, without limitation, the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock owned or held by or for the account of the Company and the issuance of any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities in exchange for any security such as a non-convertible note, but excluding shares of Common Stock issued or deemed to have been issued or sold by the Company in connection with any Excluded Security) for a consideration per share (the “New Issuance Price”) less than a price (the “Applicable Price”) equal to the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale (the foregoing a “Dilutive Issuance”), then immediately after such Dilutive Issuance, the Conversion Price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to the product of (A) the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such Dilutive Issuance and (B) the quotient determined by dividing (1) the sum of (I) the product derived by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such Dilutive Issuance and the number of shares of Common Stock Deemed Outstanding immediately prior to such Dilutive Issuance plus (II) the consideration, if any, received by the Company upon such Dilutive Issuance, by (2) the product derived by multiplying (I) the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such Dilutive Issuance by (II) the number of shares of Common Stock Deemed Outstanding immediately after such Dilutive Issuance, provided that in no event shall the Conversion Price be reduced below the Minimum Conversion Price (as defined in Section 28 hereof). For purposes of determining the adjusted Conversion Price under this Section 7(a), the following shall be applicable:

-11-


               (i) Issuance of Options. If the Company in any manner grants or sells any Options, whether or not immediately exercisable, in one transaction or in a series of related transactions, and the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion or exchange or exercise of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of such Option is less than the Applicable Price, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the granting or sale of such Option for such price per share. For purposes of this Section 7(a)(i), the “lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion or exchange or exercise of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of such Option” shall be equal to the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable (but excluding any contingent amounts) by the Company with respect to any one share of Common Stock upon the granting or sale of the Option, upon exercise of the Option and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option. No further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such share of Common Stock or of such Convertible Securities upon the exercise of such Options or upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange or exercise of such Convertible Securities.

               (ii) Issuance of Convertible Securities. If the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities, whether or not immediately convertible, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, and the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange or exercise thereof is less than the Applicable Price, then such shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities for such price per share. For the purposes of this Section 7(a)(ii), the “lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange or exercise” shall be equal to the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable (but excluding any contingent amounts) by the Company with respect to one share of Common Stock upon the issuance or sale of the Convertible Security and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Security. No further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such share of Common Stock upon conversion or exchange or exercise of such Convertible Securities, and if any such issue or sale of such Convertible Securities is made upon exercise of any Options for which adjustment of the Conversion Price had been or are to be made pursuant to other provisions of this Section 7(a), no further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made by reason of such issue or sale.

-12-


               (iii) Change in Option Price or Rate of Conversion. If the purchase price provided for in any Options, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exchange or exercise of any Convertible Securities, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock changes at any time, the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such change shall be adjusted to the Conversion Price that would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities provided for such changed purchase price, additional consideration or changed conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. For purposes of this Section 7(a)(iii), if the terms of any Option or Convertible Security that was outstanding as of the Subscription Date are changed in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence, then such Option or Convertible Security and the shares of Common Stock deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such change. No adjustment shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Conversion Price then in effect.

               (iv) Calculation of Consideration Received. In case any Option is issued in connection with the issue or sale of other securities of the Company, together comprising one integrated transaction in which no specific consideration is allocated to such Options by the parties thereto, the Options therefor will be deemed to have been issued for no consideration. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor will be deemed to be the net amount received by the Company therefor, after deduction of all underwriting discounts or allowances in connection with such issuance or sale. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of the consideration received therefor will be deemed to be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company will be the Closing Sale Price of such securities on the date of receipt. If any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Company is the surviving entity, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, as the case may be. The fair value of any consideration other than cash or securities will be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company (subject to the right of the Required Holders to dispute such valuation as described below). If the Required Holders disagree with the Board of Directors’ determination of fair value, the Required Holders may submit a notice of disagreement to the Company. During the 10 days immediately following the Company’s receipt of such notice (the “Notice Date”), the Required Holders and the Company shall negotiate in good faith to determine a mutually agreeable fair value. If the parties are unable to reach agreement within such 10-day period, the fair value of such consideration will be determined within five Business Days after the 10th day following the Notice Date by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected by the Company and the Required Holders. The determination of such appraiser shall be deemed binding upon all parties absent manifest error and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Company. If the Company issues (or becomes obligated to issue) shares of Common Stock pursuant to any antidilution or similar adjustments (other than as a result of stock splits, stock dividends and the like) contained in any Convertible Securities or Options outstanding as of the Subscription Date, but not included in Schedule 3(c) to the Securities Purchase Agreement, then all shares of Common Stock so issued shall be deemed to have been issued for no consideration. If the Company issues (or becomes obligated to issue) shares of Common Stock pursuant to any antidilution or similar adjustments contained in any Convertible Securities or Options included in Schedule 3(c) to the Securities Purchase Agreement as a result of the issuance of the Notes and the number of shares that the Company issues (or is obligated to issue) as a result of such issuance exceeds the amount specified in Schedule 3(c) to the Securities Purchase Agreement, such excess shares shall be deemed to have been issued for no consideration. Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, if Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold in conjunction with each other as part of a single transaction or in a series of related transactions, the holder hereof may elect to determine the amount of consideration deemed to be received by the Company therefor by deducting the fair value of any type of securities (the “Disregarded Securities”) issued or sold in such transaction or series of transactions. If the holder makes an election pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, no adjustment to the Conversion Price shall be made pursuant to this Section 7(a) for the issuance of the Disregarded Securities or upon any conversion, exercise or exchange thereof.

-13-


               (v) Record Date. If the Company takes a record of the holders of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Stock, Options or in Convertible Securities or (B) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date will be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.

          (b) Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any time on or after the Issuance Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Conversion Price and the Minimum Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. If the Company at any time on or after the Issuance Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price and the Minimum Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this Section 7(b) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

          (c) Other Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 7 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, other than Excluded Securities), then the Company's Board of Directors will make an appropriate adjustment in the Conversion Price and the Minimum Conversion Price so as to protect the rights of the Holder under this Note; provided that no such adjustment will increase the Conversion Price as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 7.

-14-


          (d) De Minimis Adjustments. No adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least USD$0.01 in such price; provided, however, that any adjustment which by reason of this Section 7(d) is not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustments under this Section 7. All calculations under this Section 7 shall be made by the Company in good faith and shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest one hundredth of a share, as applicable. No adjustment need be made for a change in the par value or no par value of the Company’s Common Stock.

          (e) Notice of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of any event which requires any adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 7 or any change in the number or type of stock, securities and/or other property issuable upon conversion of the Notes, the Company, at its expense, shall promptly make a public announcement of such adjustment or readjustment and shall give notice thereof to the Holder, which notice shall state the Conversion Price resulting from such adjustment or readjustment and any change in the number or type of stock, securities and/or other property issuable upon conversion of this Note, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Such calculation shall be certified by the chief financial officer of the Company. The Company shall, upon the written request at any time of the Holder, furnish a like certificate setting forth (i) the Conversion Price at the time in effect and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities or property which at the time would be received upon conversion of this Note.

     (8) COMPANY’S RIGHT OF OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.

          (a) Redemption Right. At any time and from time to time following the Issuance Date, the Company may elect, at its option, to redeem all or any portion of the outstanding Principal of the Notes, on a pro rata basis, by delivering written notice thereof (the “ Optional Redemption Notice”) at least thirty (30) days in advance of the date scheduled for redemption (the “ Optional Redemption Date”) to the holders of the Notes, which Optional Redemption Notice shall indicate the portion of the Notes that the Company is electing to redeem. The portion of this Note subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 8 (the “Optional Redemption Portion”) shall be redeemed by the Company for the Option Redemption Price (as defined in Section 8(b)), which shall be paid to the Holder in cash on the Optional Redemption Date.

          (b) As used in this Section 8, the “Optional Redemption Price” shall mean an amount equal to the sum of (I) the outstanding Principal of the Optional Redemption Portion of this Note, plus (II) any accrued and unpaid Interest thereon through but excluding the Optional Redemption Date, and any accrued and unpaid Late Charges thereon.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8, until the Optional Redemption Price is paid, in full, the portion of the Principal of this Note to be redeemed may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 3. All Principal converted by the Holder after the date of the Optional Redemption Notice shall reduce the Principal of this Note required to be redeemed on the Optional Redemption Date.

-15-


          (c) Redemptions made pursuant to this Section 8 shall be made in accordance with Section 12 to the extent applicable.

     (9) SECURITY. On the Springing Lien Date (as hereinafter defined), a security interest may be filed, to the extent and in the manner set forth in the Security Documents (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement).

     (10) NONCIRCUMVENTION. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Note, and will at all times in good faith carry out all of the provisions of this Note and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder of this Note.

     (11) RESERVATION OF AUTHORIZED SHARES.

          (a) Reservation. The Company shall reserve out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock a number of shares of Common Stock for each of the Notes equal to 120% of the Conversion Rate with respect to the Conversion Amount of each such Note as of the Issuance Date. For so long as any of the Notes are outstanding, the Company shall take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Notes, 120% of the number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the conversion of all of the Notes then outstanding; provided that at no time shall the number of shares of Common Stock so reserved be less than the number of shares required to be reserved by the previous sentence (without regard to any limitations on conversions) (the “Required Reserve Amount”). The initial number of shares of Common Stock reserved for conversions of the Notes and each increase in the number of shares so reserved shall be allocated pro rata among the holders of the Notes based on the principal amount of the Notes held by each holder at the Closing or increase in the number of reserved shares, as the case may be (the “Authorized Share Allocation”). In the event that a holder shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such holder's Notes, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such holder's Authorized Share Allocation. Any shares of Common Stock reserved and allocated to any Person that ceases to hold any Notes shall be allocated to the remaining holders of Notes, pro rata based on the principal amount of the Notes then held by such holders.

-16-


          (b) Insufficient Authorized Shares. If at any time while any of the Notes remain outstanding the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Common Stock to satisfy its obligation to reserve for issuance upon conversion of the Notes at least a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Required Reserve Amount (an “Authorized Share Failure”), then the Company shall immediately take all action necessary to increase the Company's authorized shares of Common Stock to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for the Notes then outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than 60 days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall hold a meeting of its stockholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each stockholder with a proxy statement and shall use its best efforts to solicit its stockholders' approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and to cause its board of directors to recommend to the stockholders that they approve such proposal. In lieu of holding a meeting of its stockholders, the Company may obtain stockholder approval of the increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock by written consent in lieu of meeting to the extent permitted by law and the rules of any Eligible Market upon which the Common Stock is then traded.

     (12) REDEMPTIONS.

          (a) Mechanics. The Company shall deliver the applicable Event of Default Redemption Price to the Holder within five Business Days after the Company's receipt of the Holder's Event of Default Redemption Notice. If the Holder has submitted a Change of Control Redemption Notice in accordance with Section 5(b), the Company shall deliver the applicable Change of Control Redemption Price to the Holder concurrently with the consummation of such Change of Control if such notice is received prior to the consummation of such Change of Control and within five Business Days after the Company's receipt of such notice otherwise. The Company shall deliver the Optional Redemption Price to the Holder on the Optional Redemption Date specified in the Optional Redemption Notice as specified in Section 8. In the event of a redemption of less than all of the Principal of this Note and provided that the Holder has delivered this Note to the Company, the Company shall promptly cause to be issued and delivered to the Holder a new Note (in accordance with Section 18(d)) representing the outstanding Principal which has not been redeemed. If the Company fails to pay the Holder the applicable Redemption Price to the Holder within the time period required, at any time thereafter and until the Company pays such unpaid Redemption Price in full, the Holder shall have the option, by written notice to the Company, in lieu of redemption, to require the Company to promptly return to the Holder all or any portion of this Note representing the Conversion Amount that was submitted or called for redemption and for which the applicable Redemption Price (together with any Late Charges thereon) has not been paid. Upon the Company's receipt of such notice, (x) the Redemption Notice shall be null and void with respect to such Conversion Amount, (y) the Company shall immediately return this Note, or issue a new Note (in accordance with Section 18(d)) to the Holder representing the sum of such Conversion Amount to be redeemed together with accrued and unpaid Interest with respect to such Conversion Amount and accrued and unpaid Late Charges with respect to such Conversion Amount and Interest and (z) the Conversion Price of this Note or such new Notes shall be adjusted to the lesser of (A) the Conversion Price as in effect on the date on which the Redemption Notice is voided and (B) the lowest Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock during the period beginning on and including the date on which the Redemption Notice is delivered to the Company and ending on and including the date on which the Redemption Notice is voided. The Holder's delivery of a notice voiding a Redemption Notice and exercise of its rights following such notice shall not affect the Company's obligations to make any payments of Late Charges which have accrued prior to the date of such notice with respect to the Conversion Amount subject to such notice.

-17-


          (b) Redemption by Other Holders. Upon the Company's receipt of notice from any of the holders of the Other Notes for redemption or repayment as a result of an event or occurrence substantially similar to the events or occurrences described in Section 4(a), Section 5(b) or Section 8 (each, an “Other Redemption Notice”), the Company shall immediately, but no later than one Business Day of its receipt thereof, forward to the Holder by facsimile a copy of such notice and make a prompt public announcement thereof. If the Company receives a Redemption Notice and one or more Other Redemption Notices during the seven Business Day period beginning on and including the date which is three Business Days prior to the Company's receipt of the Holder's Redemption Notice and ending on and including the date which is three Business Days after the Company's receipt of the Holder's Redemption Notice and the Company is unable to redeem all principal, interest and other amounts designated in such Redemption Notice and such Other Redemption Notices received during such seven Business Day period, then the Company shall redeem a pro rata amount from each holder of the Notes (including the Holder) based on the principal amount of the Notes submitted for redemption pursuant to such Redemption Notice and such Other Redemption Notices received by the Company during such seven Business Day period.

     (13) VOTING RIGHTS. The Holder shall have no voting rights as the holder of this Note, except as required by law, including, but not limited to, the Delaware General Corporation Law, and as expressly provided in this Note.

     (14) COVENANTS.

          (a) Rank. This Note is subordinated in right of payment to those certain Series B Convertible Secured Debentures (the “Senior Debt”) issued by the Company to certain holders pursuant to a Trust Indenture dated as of December 7, 2016 entered into between the Company, Security Devices International Canada Corp., and TSX Trust Company, as trustee (the “Trustee”), in the aggregate original principal amount of CAD $1,550,000. The Company hereby agrees, and by accepting this Note, the Holder hereby acknowledges and agrees, that so long as any Senior Debt is outstanding, upon notice from the Trustee that an event of default, or any event which the giving of notice or the passage of time or both would constitute an event of default, has occurred under the terms of the Senior Debt (a “Senior Default Notice”), the Company will not make, and the Holder will not receive or retain, any payment under this Note. Nothing in this paragraph will preclude or prohibit the Holder from receiving and retaining any payment hereunder unless and until the Holder has received notice of a Senior Default Notice or from converting this Note or any amounts due hereunder into Common Stock. All payments due under this Note shall rank pari passu with all Other Notes from this offering. Upon the occurrence of the Springing Lien Date (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), the Springing Lien (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) shall take effect, granting the Collateral Agent (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) a security interest in the Company’s assets, subject to the obligations of the Company or its Subsidiaries under any lease of real or personal property by such Person as lessee which is required under GAAP to be capitalized on such Person’s balance sheet and Indebtedness permitted by clause, provided that a Permitted Lien shall be permitted hereunder and thereunder.

-18-


          (b) Incurrence of Indebtedness. On and after the Springing Lien Date, the Company shall not, and the Company shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, incur or guarantee, assume or suffer to exist any Indebtedness, other than (i) the Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes, (ii) Permitted Indebtedness and (iii) Indebtedness incurred solely to repay the Notes at Maturity and which has a maturity later than and is pari passu or junior in right of payment to the Notes.

          (c) Existence of Liens. On and after the Springing Lien Date, the Company shall not, and the Company shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, allow or suffer to exist any mortgage, lien, pledge, charge, security interest or other encumbrance upon or in any property or assets (including accounts and contract rights) owned by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (collectively, “Liens”) other than Permitted Liens.

          (d) Restricted Payments. The Company shall not, and the Company shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, (i) redeem, defease, repurchase, repay or make any payments in respect of, by the payment of cash or cash equivalents (in whole or in part, whether by way of open market purchases, tender offers, private transactions or otherwise), all or any portion of any Permitted Indebtedness, whether by way of payment in respect of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on, such Indebtedness if at the time such payment is due or is otherwise made or, after giving effect to such payment, an event constituting, or that with the passage of time and without being cured would constitute, an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) declare or pay any cash dividend or distribution on the Common Stock or (iii) redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire or retire for value any shares of Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the prohibitions and limitations on payment or repayment shall not apply in any way to Permitted Indebtedness incurred pursuant to provision 28(q)(E).

          (e) Use of Proceeds. The Company shall use the proceeds from the sale and issuance of the Notes for general corporate purposes and working capital. Such proceeds shall not be used to (i) pay dividends; (ii) pay for any increase in executive compensation or make any loan or other advance to any officer, employee, shareholder, director or other affiliate of the Company, without the express approval of the Board of Directors acting in accordance with past practice; (iii) purchase debt or equity securities of any entity (including redeeming the Company’s own securities) other than scheduled principal payments and repayments at maturity, except for (A) evidences of indebtedness issued or fully guaranteed by the United States of America or the Government of Canada and having a maturity of not more than one year from the date of acquisition, (B) certificates of deposit, notes, acceptances and repurchase agreements having a maturity of not more than one year from the date of acquisition issued by a bank organized in the United States or Canada having capital, surplus and undivided profits of at least $500,000,000, (C) the highest-rated commercial paper having a maturity of not more than one year from the date of acquisition, and (D) “Money Market” fund shares, or money market accounts fully insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation and sponsored by banks and other financial institutions, provided that the investments consist principally of the types of investments described in clauses (A), (B), or (C) above; or (iv) make any investment not directly related to the current business of the Company.

-19-


          (f) Par Value. So long as any Notes are outstanding, the Company shall not change the par value of the Common Stock without the written consent of the Required Holders.

     (15) PARTICIPATION. The Holder, as the holder of this Note, shall be entitled to receive such dividends paid and distributions made to the holders of Common Stock to the same extent as if the Holder had converted this Note into Common Stock (without regard to any limitations on conversion herein or elsewhere) and had held such shares of Common Stock on the record date for such dividends and distributions. Payments under the preceding sentence shall be made concurrently with the dividend or distribution to the holders of Common Stock.

     (16) VOTE TO ISSUE, OR CHANGE THE TERMS OF, NOTES. This Note and the Other Notes shall be amended in accordance with the terms of any resolution approved by the affirmative vote at a meeting duly called for such purpose or the written consent without a meeting of the Required Holders; provided that the Company approves any such amendment in writing and, further provided that, without the consent of each Holder so affected, no amendment shall (a) reduce the Principal of or Interest Rate on this Note, (b) postpone the Maturity Date or any date fixed for the payment of any Interest on this Note, (c) increase the percentage specified in the definition of “Required Holders,” (d) amend Section 3(d) or the application of Section 3(d) to any other provision of this Note or (e) have the effect of creating different provisions in different Notes, provided that nothing contained herein shall prohibit the Holder from waiving any of the Holder’s rights hereunder or under any of the other Transaction Documents.

     (17) TRANSFER. This Note is subject to certain restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 5 of the Securities Purchase Agreement; provided, however, that this Note and any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of this Note may be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred by the Holder without the consent of the Company, subject to applicable securities law restrictions. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provisions hereof, the Holder may not transfer this Note unless the transferee agrees in writing to be bound by all of the provisions of the Transaction Documents (including, but not limited to, Section 8 of the Security Purchase Agreement), and it shall be a condition to any such transfer that any such transferee execute and deliver appropriate documentation, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Collateral Agent, to such effect.

     (18) REISSUANCE OF THIS NOTE.

          (a) Transfer. If this Note is to be transferred, the Holder shall surrender this Note to the Company, whereupon the Company will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Note (in accordance with Section 18(d)), registered as the Holder may request, representing the outstanding Principal being transferred by the Holder and, if less than the entire outstanding Principal is being transferred, a new Note (in accordance with Section 18(d)) to the Holder representing the outstanding Principal not being transferred. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of Section 3(c)(v) following conversion or redemption of any portion of this Note, the outstanding Principal represented by this Note may be less than the Principal amount stated on the face of this Note.

-20-


          (b) Lost, Stolen or Mutilated Note. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Note, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the Company in customary form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Note, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new Note (in accordance with Section 18(d)) representing the outstanding Principal.

          (c) Note Exchangeable for Different Denominations. This Note is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Company, for a new Note or Notes (in accordance with Section 18(d) and in principal amounts of at least $1,000) representing in the aggregate the outstanding Principal of this Note, and each such new Note will represent such portion of such outstanding Principal as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender.

          (d) Issuance of New Notes. Whenever the Company is required to issue a new Note pursuant to the terms of this Note, such new Note (i) shall be of like tenor with this Note, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such new Note, the Principal remaining outstanding (or in the case of a new Note being issued pursuant to Section 18(a) or Section 18(c), the Principal designated by the Holder which, when added to the principal represented by the other new Notes issued in connection with such issuance, does not exceed the Principal remaining outstanding under this Note immediately prior to such issuance of new Notes), (iii) shall have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such new Note, which is the same as the Issuance Date of this Note, (iv) shall have the same rights and conditions as this Note, and (v) shall represent accrued Interest and Late Charges on the Principal and Interest of this Note, from the Issuance Date.

     (19) REMEDIES, CHARACTERIZATIONS, OTHER OBLIGATIONS, BREACHES AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. The remedies provided in this Note shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Note and any of the other Transaction Documents at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the Holder's right to pursue actual and consequential damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Note. The Company covenants to the Holder that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as expressly provided herein. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, conversion and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Company (or the performance thereof). The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

     (20) PAYMENT OF COLLECTION, ENFORCEMENT AND OTHER COSTS. If (a) this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or enforcement or is collected or enforced through any legal proceeding or the Holder otherwise takes action to collect amounts due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of this Note or (b) there occurs any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership of the Company or other proceedings affecting Company creditors' rights and involving a claim under this Note, then the Company shall pay the costs incurred by the Holder for such collection, enforcement or action or in connection with such bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other proceeding, including, but not limited to, attorneys' fees and disbursements.

-21-


     (21) CONSTRUCTION; HEADINGS. This Note shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Company and the Holder and shall not be construed against any person as the drafter hereof.

     (22) FAILURE OR INDULGENCE NOT WAIVER. No failure or delay on the part of the Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.
