Defined terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in that certain note purchase agreement of even date herewith among the Maker, the Holder and any other holders of Notes substantially identical to this Note (the “Purchase Agreement”).
 
1.           Payments.
 
(a)           Unless (i) converted into shares of Common Stock pursuant to the terms herein or (ii) an Event of Default shall have previously occurred and be continuing or (iii) this Note is exchanged by the Holder for securities in connection with the a Subsequent Financing (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) pursuant to Section 3, the full amount of principal and accrued interest under this Note shall, automatically and without further action by the Holder, convert into the Reverse Merger Financing, pursuant to Section 4 herein.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Reverse Merger Transaction does not close, this Note shall be automatically exchanged for the full face amount of this Note, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, into the applicable dollar amount of any other securities issued by Maker connection with the Subsequent Financing of the Maker.  Upon such exchange, the Notes will be immediately cancelled upon delivery of the securities.
 
(b)           The Maker shall pay interest to the Holder on the aggregate and then outstanding principal amount of this Note at the rate of 6% per annum, payable in arrears on the earlier of (i) the exchange of this Note into the Reverse Merger Financing, in which case such accrued but unpaid interest shall be converted into securities of the Maker as part of the Reverse Merger Financing or (ii) acceleration of this Note following an Event of Default pursuant to Section 2(b).

(c)           Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year, consisting of twelve 30 calendar day periods, and shall accrue monthly commencing on the Original Issue Date until payment in full of the outstanding principal, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, and other amounts which may become due hereunder, has been made. Interest hereunder will be paid to the Person in whose name this Note is registered on the records of the Maker regarding registration and transfers of this Note.
 
(d)           All overdue accrued and unpaid principal and interest to be paid hereunder shall entail a default rate of interest at the rate of 16% per annum (or such lower maximum amount of interest permitted to be charged under applicable law) which will accrue daily, from the date such principal and/or interest is due hereunder through and including the date of payment. Except as otherwise set forth in this Note, the Maker may not prepay any portion of the principal amount of this Note without the 10 Business Day advance written notice to the Holder.
 
(e)           Holder has the right, at any time after the Original Issuance Date, at its election, to convert all or part of the outstanding and unpaid principal amount and accrued interest into shares of fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of the Maker (the “Common Stock”). The conversion price shall be $0.01 per share (the “Conversion Price”). The conversion formula shall be as follows: Number of shares of Common Stock receivable upon conversion equals the dollar conversion amount divided by the Conversion Price. A conversion notice (the “Conversion Notice”) may be delivered to Maker by method of Holder’s choice (including but not limited to email, facsimile, mail, overnight courier, or personal delivery), and all conversions shall be cashless and not require further payment from the Holder. If no objection is delivered from Maker to the Holder, with respect to any variable or calculation of the Conversion Notice within 24 hours of delivery of the Conversion Notice, then the Maker shall have been thereafter deemed to have irrevocably confirmed and irrevocably ratified such notice of conversion and waived any objection thereto. The Maker shall deliver the shares of Common Stock from any conversion to the Holder (in any name directed by the Holder) within three (3) business days of conversion notice delivery. The Holder shall not convert any amount of this Note into shares of Common Stock that would result in the Holder beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the Maker’s Common Stock outstanding. However, the Holder may increase this 4.99% conversion limit to 9.99% by providing Maker with at least 61 days prior written notice, and the provisions of the conversion limit shall continue to apply until such 61st day (or such later date, as determined by the Holder, as may be specified in such notice). The Conversion Price shall be subject to equitable adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends or rights offerings by the Maker relating to the Maker’s securities or the securities of any subsidiary of the Maker, combinations, recapitalization, reclassifications, extraordinary distributions and similar events.

In addition, for each conversion, in the event that shares of Common Stock are not delivered by the fourth business day (inclusive of the day of conversion), a penalty of $500 per day shall be assessed for each day after the third business day (inclusive of the day of the conversion) until share delivery is made; and such penalty shall be added to the Principal Sum of this Note (under the Holder’s and the Maker’s expectations that any penalty amounts shall tack back to the original date of this Note).
