All payments of both principal and interest shall be made at the address of the Holder hereof as it appears in the books and records of the Company, or at such other place as may be designated by the Holder hereof. If any payment of principal or interest on this Note shall become due on a day other than any day that is not a Saturday, a Sunday or a day on which banks are required or permitted to be closed in the State of New York (a "Business Day"), such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall in such case be included in computing interest in connection with such payment.

Conversion. ---------- (a) Conversion Privilege. The Holder of this Note may in its sole -------------------- discretion at any time or from time to time convert the unpaid principal of and accrued but unpaid Common Stock interest on this Note, into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock. The number of shares of Common Stock into which this Note may be converted shall be determined by dividing the unpaid principal amount of and accrued but unpaid interest on the this Note to be converted by the "Conversion Price" (as determined from time to time in accordance with the following). The Conversion Price shall initially be $.0575. (b) Automatic Conversion. Upon the occurrence of a Qualified Initial -------------------- Public Offering (as defined below), the entire principal amount of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, this Note shall automatically be converted without further action on the part of the Holder and whether or not the Note is surrendered to the Company, into the number of shares of Common Stock as is obtained by dividing the unpaid principal amount of and accrued but unpaid interest on this Note by the Conversion Price. For purposes of this Note, "Qualified Initial Public Offering" means an underwritten public offering of Common Stock registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, yielding gross proceeds to the Company of at least $20,000,000. (c) Conversion Procedure. -------------------- (i) To convert this Note, other than pursuant to Section 4(b), the Holder must (A) complete and sign a conversion notice stating the amount to be converted and (B) surrender this Note and the conversion notice to the Company. In the case of the conversion of less than all the unpaid principal amount of and accrued but unpaid interest on this Note, the Company shall issue and deliver to the Holder a new Note of like tenor for the balance of such principal and interest. (ii) The date on which the Holder satisfies the foregoing requirements, or in the case of conversion pursuant to Section 4(b), the date of the Qualified Initial Public Offering, as the case may be, is the "Conversion Date." As soon as practicable after the Conversion Date, the Company shall deliver to the Holder a certificate for the number of whole shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion. The Person in whose name the certificate is registered shall become the record holder of such shares of Common Stock on the -2- Conversion Date, and, as of such date, such Person's rights as the Holder of this Note shall cease. (iii) The number of whole shares issuable upon the conversion shall be based on the total unpaid principal amount of the Note and accrued and unpaid interest thereon. (d) Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue ----------------- any fractional shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note to the extent that the amount of the Note to be converted is not convertible into a whole number of shares. In lieu of any fractional shares to which the Holder would otherwise be entitled, the Holder shall be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the fair market value for each fractional share. (e) Taxes on Conversion. The issuance of certificates for shares of ------------------- Common Stock upon the conversion of this Note shall be made without charge to the converting Holder for such certificates for any tax (other than taxes levied on the income of the Holder) in respect of the issuance of such certificates; provided, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificates in a name other than that of the Holder of this Note, and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid or is not applicable.

If, at any -------------------------------------------- time prior to the conversion of the Note into shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock or by a subdivision or split-up of shares of Common Stock, then, upon the issuance of such stock dividend, or such subdivision or split-up, the Conversion Price shall be appropriately decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of the Note shall be increased in proportion to such increase in outstanding shares. (ii) Upon Combinations. If, at any time prior to the conversion ----------------- of the Note into shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding is decreased by a combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, then, upon such combination, the Conversion Price shall be appropriately increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of the Note shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares. (h) Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the Conversion Price is --------------------- adjusted, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder a notice of the adjustment briefly stating the facts requiring the adjustment and the manner of computing it. -3- (i) Reservation of Shares.
