5. REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS.

 

(a) REPRESENTATIONS. Company represents and warrants to Gorrill that:

(ii) Company has full power and authority to enter into this Note, to execute and deliver the same, and to incur the obligations provided for herein, all of which have been duly authorized by all necessary action;

 

(iii) this Note is the legal and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its respective terms;

 

(iv) neither the execution and delivery of this Note, nor consummation of any of the transactions herein contemplated, nor compliance with the terms and provisions hereof, will contravene or conflict with any provision of law, statute, or regulation to which the Company is subject or any judgment, license, order, or permit applicable to the Company or any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, or other instrument to which the Company may be subject; no consent, approval, authorization, or order of any court, governmental authority, or third party is required in connection with the execution, delivery, and performance by Company of this Note or to consummate the transactions contemplated herein;

4

 

(b) AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS. Until payment in full of this Note, Company agrees and covenants that Company shall and shall:

 

(i) conduct its business in an orderly and efficient manner consistent with good business practices and in accordance with all valid regulations, laws, and orders of any governmental authority and will act in accordance with customary industry standards in maintaining and operating its assets, properties, and investments;

 

(ii) maintain complete and accurate books and records of its transactions in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles;

 

(iii) furnish to Gorrill, immediately upon becoming aware of the existence of any condition or event constituting an Event of Default or event which, with the lapse of time and/or giving of notice would constitute an Event of Default, written notice specifying the nature and period of existence thereof and any action which Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

 

6. NO WAIVER. No waiver by Gorrill of any of its rights or remedies hereunder or under any other document evidencing or securing this Note or otherwise, shall be considered a waiver of any other subsequent right or remedy of Gorrill; no delay or omission in the exercise or enforcement by Gorrill of any rights or remedies shall ever be construed as a waiver of any right or remedy of Gorrill; and no exercise or enforcement of any such rights or remedies shall ever be held to exhaust any right or remedy of Gorrill.

 

7. USURY LAWS. Regardless of any provision contained in this Note, Gorrill shall never be deemed to have contracted for or be entitled to receive, collect, or apply as interest on this Note (whether termed interest herein or deemed to be interest by judicial determination or operation of law) any amount in excess of the Maximum Rate, and, in the event that Gorrill ever receives, collects, or applies as interest any such excess, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the unpaid principal balance of this Note, and, if the principal balance of this Note is paid in full, then any remaining excess shall forthwith be paid to Company. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable under any specific contingency exceeds the highest Maximum Rate, Company and Gorrill shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, (a) characterize any non-principal payment (other than payments which are expressly designated as interest payments hereunder) as an expense or fee rather than as interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effect thereof, and (c) spread the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of this Note so that the interest rate is uniform throughout such term; provided, that if this Note is paid and performed in full prior to the end of the full contemplated term hereof, and if the interest received for the actual period of existence thereof exceeds the Maximum Rate, if any, then Gorrill or any holder hereof shall refund to Company the amount of such excess, or credit the amount of such excess against the aggregate unpaid principal balance of all advances made by the Gorrill or any holder hereof under this Note at the time in question.

8. CONVERSION RIGHTS.

 

(a) CONVERSION BY COMPANY. During the period of time commencing on the Original Issue Date and continuing until the payment in full of this Note, Company, at its option may convert all or any portion of outstanding principal balance of, and all accrued interest on, this Note into the number of shares of Common Stock obtained by dividing (i) the unpaid principal amount of, and interest through the date of conversion on, this Note to be converted, by (ii) the Conversion Price. If the Company elects to exercise its conversion rights pursuant to this SECTION 8 then the Company shall be required to convert all outstanding Notes on a pro rata basis. For the avoidance of doubt: if the Company elects to convert twenty five percent (25%) of the outstanding principal and interest owed pursuant to this Note, then the Company must convert, simultaneously, 25% of the outstanding principal and interest owed pursuant to all the Notes.

 

(b) CONVERSION PROCEDURE. To convert this Note pursuant to this SECTION 8, the Company shall (i) provide Gorrill with written notice of the Company’s intent to convert and the amount to be converted into the Company’s Common Stock, (ii) if the conversion is of only a portion of the unpaid principal of, and interest on, this Note, then issue a statement to Gorrill setting forth the Original Principal Amount, interest accrued on the outstanding principal to date, and the amount of unpaid and unconverted principal and interest still payable on the Note, and (iii) issue and deliver to Gorrill, a certificate or certificates for the full number of whole shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of this Note in accordance with the provisions of this SECTION 8.

 

(c) CASH PAYMENTS IN LIEU OF FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares of Common Stock or scrip representing fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of the principal of, or interest on, this Note. If any fractional share of Common Stock would be issuable upon the conversion of any portion of this Note, the Company shall round the fractional shares up to the next whole number and issue such whole share to the Gorrill in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

(d) ADJUSTMENT OF CONVERSION PRICE.

 

(i) If the Company shall (A) pay a dividend or other distribution, in Common Stock, on any class of capital stock of the Company, (B) subdivide the outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares by any means (including, without limitation, a forward stock split) or (C) combine the outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares by any means (including, without limitation, a reverse stock split) (any such event being an “Adjustment Event”), then in each such case the Conversion Price shall be decreased or increased as follows: the adjusted Conversion Price shall be equal to the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the effective date of the Adjustment Event, multiplied by a fraction whose numerator is the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to such effective date, and whose denominator is the number of such shares outstanding immediately after such effective date. An adjustment made pursuant to this SECTION 8(d)(i) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination, as the case may be.

6

 

(ii) Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted as provided herein, the Company shall promptly provide Gorrill with written notice of such adjustment setting forth the Conversion Price in effect after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

 

(e) EFFECT OF RECLASSIFICATION, CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, OR SALE. In the event of (i) any reclassification (including, without limitation, a reclassification effected by means of an exchange or tender offer by Company) but excluding a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination), (ii) any consolidation, merger or combination of Company with another corporation as a result of which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive securities or other property (including cash) with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock or (iii) any sale or conveyance of the property of Company as, or substantially as, an entirety to any other corporation as a result of which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive securities or other property (including cash) with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, then Company or the successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall enter into an Amended and Restated Note providing that this Note shall be convertible into the kind and amount of securities or other property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance which Company of this Note would have received if this Note had been converted immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance. Such Amended and Restated Note shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this SECTION 8. Whenever an Amended and Restated Note is entered into as provided herein, the Company shall promptly provide Gorrill with an Officer’s Certificate setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such Amended and Restated Note. The provisions of this SECTION 8 shall similarly apply to all successive events of the type described in this SECTION 8.

 

9. NOTICE. Whenever this Note requires or permits any notice, approval, request, or demand from one party to another, the notice, approval, request, or demand must be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given when personally served or when deposited in the United States mails, registered or certified, return receipt requested, addressed to the party to be notified at the following address (or at such other address as may have been designated by written notice):
