The following terms shall apply to this Note:

 

Section 1. Definitions. Defined terms used herein without definition have the meanings given them in the Agreement.

 

Section 2. Interest; Payments and Prepayment.

 

(a) Interest on this Note shall accrue on a simple interest, non-compounded basis, and shall be added to the outstanding Principal Amount on the Maturity Date or such earlier date as the Indebtedness may be payable or paid hereunder or may be due hereunder pursuant to the terms herein.

 

(b) The Holder, at any time and in Holder’s sole discretion, may demand that the then- unrepaid Indebtedness be repaid in full at such time. Upon any such demand, the Company shall repay the unrepaid Indebtedness in full within one Business Day of such Demand.

 

(c) In the event that, at any time after the Issue Date, the Company receives or raises any capital through the sale or issuance of any Equity Securities (as defined below) or debt securities of the Company, then the Company shall utilize all of such capital raised (the “Proceeds”), to repay the then-unrepaid Indebtedness pursuant to this Note and all amounts then due and payable pursuant to the other Offering Notes at such time (collectively, the “Offering Indebtedness”), with such Proceeds being apportioned pro rata to the repayment of this Note and the other Offering Notes based on the respective portion of the Offering Indebtedness then due and payable with respect to this Note and the other Offering Notes, in each case without any further action or demand of either of the Parties, with such repayment to be made on the first Business Day following the receipt by the Company of the Proceeds. By way of example and not limitation, in the event that the Proceeds are $20,000, the Indebtedness hereunder is $2,000, and the amounts owed under the other Offering Notes total $8,000, then $4,000 of the Proceeds shall be used to repay the Indebtedness hereunder and $16,000 of the Proceeds shall be used to repay the amounts owed pursuant to the other Offering Notes.

(d) The Company may, at its sole option, elect to prepay all or any part of the Indebtedness at any time, without penalty.

 

(e) To the extent not earlier paid, all Indebtedness shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.

(f) Waiver. Any waiver by the Company or Holder of a breach of any provision of this Note shall not operate as or be construed to be a waiver of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Note or a waiver by any other Holders.
