The Holder shall be liable for and shall be required to pay any tax or duty which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of Common Stock or Qualified Securities in a name other than that of the Holder, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless the Person requesting such issue has paid to the Borrower the amount of any such tax or duty, or has established to the satisfaction of the Borrower that such tax or duty has been paid.

Section 4.08. Certain Covenants.

(a)The Borrower covenants that all shares of Common Stock or other Qualified Securities issued upon conversion of this Note shall be (as applicable) newly issued, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their terms, and shall be free from preemptive or similar rights and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.

(b)The Borrower covenants that, if any shares of Common Stock or other Qualified Securities to be provided for the purpose of conversion of this Note require registration with or approval of any governmental authority under any federal or state law before such shares of Common Stock or Qualified Securities may be validly issued upon conversion, the Borrower shall, to the extent then permitted by the rules and interpretations of the Commission, secure such registration or approval, as the case may be.

(c)The Borrower further covenants that if at any time the Common Stock or other Qualified Securities shall be listed on any national securities exchange or automated quotation system, the Borrower will use commercially reasonable efforts to list and keep listed, so long as the Common Stock or such other Qualified Securities shall be so listed on such exchange or automated quotation system, any Common Stock or Qualified Securities issuable upon conversion of this Note.

(d)The Borrower shall reserve, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued shares or shares held in treasury, sufficient shares of Common Stock to provide for conversion of this Note at the then effective Fixed Conversion Rate.

Section 4.09. Adjustment of Conversion Rate. If the Borrower, at any time while this Note is Outstanding: (a) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares by means of a stock dividend or otherwise, (b) combines (including by way of reverse split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, (c) issues, by reclassification of shares of Common Stock, any other Equity Interests, (d) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon exercise of this Note). Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4.09 shall become effective after the effective date of such subdivision, combination, issuance or re‑classification, as the case may be. Whenever the Fixed Conversion Rate is required to be adjusted pursuant to this Note, the Borrower shall promptly deliver to the Holder a notice of the adjustment, briefly stating the facts requiring the adjustment, the adjusted Fixed Conversion Rate and the manner of computing it. Failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of any such adjustment.

Section 4.10. Effect of Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale other than a Fundamental Change On Conversion Privilege.

(a)     If any of the following events occur:

(i) any recapitalization or reclassification of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than changes resulting from a subdivision or combination);

(ii) any consolidation, merger, combination or similar transaction involving the Borrower; or

(iii) any statutory share exchange,

in each case, other than any such event that is a Fundamental Change, and as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such event, a “Merger Event”), then, at and after the effective time of such Merger Event, the right of the Holder to convert each $1,000 principal amount of this Note pursuant to this Article IV shall be changed into a right of the Holder to convert such principal amount of this Note into the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Fixed Conversion Rate immediately prior to such Merger Event would have owned or been entitled to receive (the “Reference Property,” with each “Unit of Reference Property” meaning the kind and amount of Reference Property that a holder of one share of Common Stock is entitled to receive) upon such Merger Event and, prior to or at the effective time of such Merger Event, this Note shall be deemed to provide for such change in the convertibility of this Note, including anti-dilution and other adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as is possible to the adjustments provided for in this Article 4, and the Borrower or the successor or purchasing Person, as the case may be, shall execute a supplement to this Note at such time to evidence the foregoing.

If the Merger Event causes the Common Stock to be converted into, or exchanged for, the right to receive more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of shareholder election), then (i) the Reference Property into which this Note will be convertible shall be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration actually received by the holders of Common Stock and (ii) the Unit of Reference Property for purposes of the immediately preceding paragraph shall refer to the consideration referred to in clause (i) attributable to one share

of Common Stock. If the holders of the Common Stock receive only cash in such Merger Event, then for all conversions pursuant to Section 4.03 for which the relevant conversion date occurs after the effective date of such Merger Event (A) the consideration due upon conversion of each $1,000 principal amount of this Note shall be solely cash in an amount equal to the Fixed Conversion Rate in effect on the relevant conversion date, multiplied by the price paid per share of Common Stock in such Merger Event and (B) the Borrower shall satisfy the conversion obligation pursuant to Section 4.03 by paying cash to the converting Holder on the second Business Day immediately following the relevant conversion date. The Borrower shall notify the Holder of such weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made but in no event later than the third (3rd) Business Day following the effective date of the Merger Event.

If, in the case of any Merger Event, the Reference Property includes shares of stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) of a Person other than the successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, in such Merger Event, then an assumption of this Note shall also be executed by such other Person and shall contain such additional provisions to protect the interests of the Holder as the Board of Directors shall reasonably consider necessary by reason of the foregoing.

(a)If this Note is modified or amended pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 4.10, the Borrower shall promptly provide to the Holder a notice briefly stating the reasons therefor, the kind or amount of cash, securities or property or asset that will comprise a Unit of Reference Property after any such Merger Event, any adjustment to be made with respect thereto and that all conditions precedent have been complied with. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of such modification or amendment to this Note.

(b)The Borrower shall not become a party to any Merger Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 4.10.

(c)The above provisions of this Section 4.10 shall similarly apply to any successive Merger Events. For the avoidance of doubt, a Fundamental Change shall not be deemed a Merger Event pursuant to the terms of this Note and, pursuant to Section 4.03(d), any portion of the Note that is not converted in connection with the Fundamental Change (including any accrued and unpaid interest thereon) shall be due and payable on the Fundamental Change Effective Date.

Section 4.11. Voluntary Increase; Nasdaq Compliance. The Borrower from time to time may increase the Fixed Conversion Rate, to the extent permitted by law and subject to any applicable shareholder approval requirements pursuant to the listing standards of The Nasdaq Global Market or such other United States securities exchange on which the Common Stock is traded, by any amount for any period of at least 20 days, if the Board of Directors determines that such increase shall be in the Borrower’s best interests. The Borrower may (but is not required to) make such increase in the Fixed Conversion Rate as the Board of Directors deems advisable to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Common Stock resulting from a dividend or distribution of stock, or rights to acquire stock, or similar event as permitted under applicable laws. The Borrower shall provide at least 15 days’ written notice to the Holder of any increase under this Section 4.11, and such notice shall state the increased Fixed Conversion Rate and the period during which it will be in effect.

Section 5.01. Events of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute an event of default (hereinafter “Event of Default”) under this Note:

(a)     the Borrower fails to pay when due the principal of this Note at the Maturity Date, upon exercise of a purchase right hereunder or otherwise;

(b)     the Borrower fails to pay an installment of interest on this Note for 30 days or more after the date when due, subject to Section 2.02(b);

(c)     the Borrower fails to deliver consideration due in respect of its conversion obligation upon conversion of this Note within the time periods specified in Section 4.03, and such failure continues for a period of three Business Days;

(d)     the Borrower fails to provide a Fundamental Change Borrower Notice when due in accordance with Section 4.03(a), and such failure continues for a period of four Business Days;

(e)     the Borrower fails to comply with its obligations under Section 3.03;

(f)     the Borrower fails to perform or observe any other term, covenant or agreement contained in this Note for a period of 60 days after written notice of such failure, requiring the Borrower to remedy the same, shall have been given to the Borrower by the Holder;

(g)     the default by Borrower or any Subsidiaries under any contract, agreement or instrument evidencing or creating on any indebtedness for borrowed money in excess of $500,000 that results in such indebtedness becoming due and payable before its scheduled maturity;

(i)     an involuntary case or other proceeding shall be commenced against the Borrower seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to the Borrower or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official of the Borrower or any substantial part of its property, and such involuntary case or other proceeding shall remain undismissed and unstayed for a period of 30 consecutive days;

(j) the Borrower pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

(i) commences as a debtor a voluntary case or proceeding;

(ii) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case or proceeding or the commencement of any case against it;

(iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors;

(v) files a petition in bankruptcy or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief; or

(vi) consents to the filing of such a petition or the appointment of or taking possession by a Receiver; or

(k)     a Termination of Trading shall have occurred.

Section 5.02. Acceleration of Maturity.

(a)If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(i) or Section 5.01(j) hereof) occurs and is continuing, the Holder may declare the portion of this Note that is Outstanding due and payable at its principal amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest, and thereupon the Holder may, at its discretion, proceed to protect and enforce its rights by the appropriate judicial proceedings. Such declaration may be rescinded and annulled by the written consent of the Holder.

(b)If an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(i) or Section 5.01(j) hereof occurs and is continuing, then all unpaid principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the portion of this Note that is Outstanding shall become immediately due and payable, without any declaration or other act on the part of the Holder.

Section 5.03. Other Remedies. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, in addition to the remedies set forth in Section 5.02, the Holder may (i) pursue any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of, or interest on, this Note or to enforce the performance of any provision of this Note, (ii) exercise on behalf of itself all rights and remedies available to it under this Note, and/or (iii) exercise all rights and remedies available to the Holder under this Note or at law or equity.

Section 5.04. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holder may waive an existing Default or Event of Default. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Note; provided, however, that no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon

Section 5.05. Unconditional Right of Holder to Receive Payment and to Convert. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Note, the Holder of this Note shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal amount and interest in respect of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, on or after the respective due dates expressed in this Note, and to convert this Note in accordance with Article 4, and to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective due dates or for the right to convert in accordance with Article 4, and shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of the Holder.

Section 5.06. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Note and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Borrower and the Holder shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Holder shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

Section 5.07. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of a mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note in Section 8.12, no right or

remedy conferred in this Note upon or reserved to the Holder of this Note is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 5.08. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or any acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article 5 or by law to the Holder may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Holder.

Section 5.09. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Borrower covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim to take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Note; and the Borrower (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Holder, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

Section 6.01. Consolidations; Merger; Conveyance; Transfer or Lease. The Borrower may, without the consent of the Holder, consolidate with, merge into or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another Person (other than a transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to one or more direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiaries) (a “Business Combination Event”).

Section 6.02. Successor Substituted. At the effective time of any Business Combination Event, the successor entity (if not the Borrower) shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Borrower under this Note with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the Borrower herein, and thereafter, except in the case of a lease, and except for obligations the predecessor Person may have under an assignment and assumption agreement, the predecessor Person shall be relieved of all obligations and covenants under the this Note.

Section 7.01. Tax Treatment. Each of the Borrower and the Holder agrees to treat this Note as debt that is not subject to the application of the rules of United States Treasury regulation Section 1.1275-4 for U.S. federal and other applicable income tax purposes and to perform all tax reporting, withholding and other tax compliance in manner consistent with such treatment unless otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code. Payments under this Note shall be made net of any applicable withholding tax (and, for the avoidance of doubt, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Note as having been paid to the person in respect of whom such withholding was made). The Borrower and the Holder agree to cooperate with each other to minimize any taxes to the extent reasonably practicable. For purposes of tax

compliance or in the event of a tax audit, the Borrower and the Holder agree to cooperate with timely sharing information in a good faith and a commercially reasonable manner as permitted by applicable law.
