4. Extension

 

4.1 Holder hereby agrees that at anytime prior to the Maturity Date, and upon the request of Issuer, Holder shall enter into good faith negotiations with Issuer to extend the Maturity Date of this Note to a date, and upon terms to be agreed between the parties hereto

 

5. Conversion

 

5.1 The Issuer and the Holder agree that up to TWO HUNDRED FOUR THOUSAND EIGHTY DOLLARS ($204,080.00) of the Principal Amount, plus accrued interest thereon, (the “Conversion Amount”), will, at the election of the Holder be either: (a) repaid by the Issuer, in cash, or (b) converted into Conversion Shares.

5.3 In order to effect any conversion under this Note, the Holder must provide written notice (the “Conversion Notice”) to the Issuer at anytime but not less than ten (10) business days prior to the Maturity Date (the “Conversion Deadline”) specifying therein the portion of the Conversion Amount to be converted and the date on which such conversion shall be effected. Multiple conversions up to the Conversion Amount and accrued interest may be effected at Holder’s election hereunder. To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Issuer unless the entire Principal Amount together with accrued interest then remaining unpaid at that time has been so converted. Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding Principal Amount in an amount equal to the applicable conversion. The Holder and the Issuer shall maintain records showing the Principal Amount(s) converted and the date of such conversion(s). In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, the records of the Issuer shall be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error. The Holder acknowledges and agrees that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Note, the unpaid and unconverted Principal Amount of this Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

 

5.4 In the event that the Holder has not provided a Conversion Notice by the Conversion Deadline, and absent any extension of the Maturity Date pursuant to Section 4 above, the Issuer will repay the Principal Amount, plus any accrued interest thereon, in cash, to the Holder on the Maturity Date.

 

5.5 The number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Principal Amount shall be determined by the quotient obtained by dividing (x) by (y) where (x) is equal to the Conversion Amount and (y) is the Conversion Price.

 

5.6 The number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of any accrued and outstanding interest on this Note shall be determined by the quotient obtained by dividing (x) by (y) where (x) is equal to the amount of accrued interest to be converted and (y) is the Conversion Price.

 

5.7 Not later than ten (10) Business Days after any Conversion Date, the Issuer will deliver to the Holder a certificate representing the Conversion Shares (bearing such legends as may be required by applicable law) representing the aggregate number of Conversion Shares being acquired.

 

5.8 Upon any conversion hereunder, the Issuer shall not be required to issue any fraction of a Conversion Share, and the number of Conversion Shares shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number.

 

5.9 If the Issuer, at any time while this Note is outstanding: (a) subdivides outstanding Shares into a larger number of Shares, (b) combines (including by way of reverse split) outstanding Shares into a smaller number of Shares, or (c) issues, by reclassification of Shares, any equity securities of the Issuer, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of Shares outstanding before such event and the denominator shall be the number of Shares outstanding after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 5.9 shall become effective after the effective date of such subdivision, combination or re-classification.

7. Prepayment

 

7.1 Subject to the Holder’s rights of conversion set out in Section 5, and subject to the prepayment terms and conditions set out in this Section 7, the Issuer may, at its option, at any time prior to the Maturity Date, upon twenty calendar days prior written notice to the Holder (a “Prepayment Notice”), prepay any portion of the Principal Amount, and accrued interest thereon, without the prior written consent of the Holder.

 

7.2 The Prepayment Notice shall set forth the date on which prepayment is to occur, such date being no earlier than twenty calendar days after the date of the Prepayment Notice and no later than the Maturity Date (in any case, the “Prepayment Date”), and shall set forth that portion of the Principal Amount to be prepaid, along with the calculated accrued interest thereon through and including the Prepayment Date (the “Prepayment Amount”).

 

7.3 The Prepayment Amount (less any tax required to be withheld by the Issuer) shall be paid to the Holder by the Issuer by certified check or such other method as may be mutually agreed to by the Holder and the Issuer from time to time. The mailing of such check, or payment by other means, by the Issuer on or before the Prepayment Date shall be deemed to be payment on the Prepayment Date unless the check is not paid upon presentation, or payment by such other means as may be mutually agreed to by the Holder and the Issuer is not received prior to the Prepayment Date.

 

7.4 At any time after a Prepayment Notice is given, the Issuer shall have the right to deliver to the Holder, or to such other Person as may be directed by the Holder, the Prepayment Amount. Upon the delivery of the Prepayment Amount to the Holder being made, or upon the Prepayment Date, whichever is later, the Note shall be, and be deemed to be, paid and the rights of the Holder shall be limited to receiving, without interest, the amount so deposited. Any interest allowed on such deposit shall accrue to the Issuer.
