“Committed Draw Down Date” shall mean the date specified in the first Committed Draw Down Notice delivered to the Purchaser by the Company following satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 5.04 (the “First Draw Down Date”), and thereafter, the date specified by the Company (each such date, a “Subsequent Draw Down Date”), in its sole discretion, in the Committed Draw Down Notice for each such Committed Draw Down.
(b) Section 1.01 is amended by deleting the definitions of “Adjustment Date” and “Commitment Fee” in their entirety.
(c) Section 4.12 is amended by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following:
“Section 4.12 Commitment Fee. On the First Draw Down Date, the Company shall issue to GYBL, as a commitment fee, 4,000,000 Common Shares, free and clear of all Liens.

For example, if the amount set forth in a Committed Draw Down Notice is $25,000,000 and the public listing price of the Shares on the Public Listing Date was $10 per Share, then the Company shall transfer at least 5,000,000 Common Shares to the Escrow Agent concurrently with its delivery of such Committed Draw Down Notice in respect of such Committed Draw Down. In addition, during the applicable Committed Draw Down Pricing Period (defined below), the Company may deliver additional Shares to the Purchaser (which additional Shares shall be deemed to be “Transferred Shares” for the applicable Committed Draw Down). On the business day following receipt of a Committed Draw Down Notice, Purchaser shall make payment in the amount set forth in the applicable Committed Draw Down Notice to the Company’s designated account by wire transfer of immediately available funds, provided that the Shares were deposited with the Escrow Agent in accordance with this Section 6.03(b).
