United American Healthcare Corporation, a Michigan corporation (the “Company”), for value received, hereby promises to pay to St George Investments LLC, an Illinois limited liability company, or its assignee (the “Holder”), the principal amount of Three Hundred Seventy Thousand Dollars Exactly ($370,000.00) (such amount is referred to herein as the “Principal Amount”), together with simple interest on the unpaid amount thereof at ten percent (10.0%) per annum, computed on the basis of a 365-day year for the actual number of days elapsed from the date hereof until paid or converted in accordance with the terms hereof.


 


This Note is issued pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in that certain Note Purchase Agreement between the Company and the Holder of even date herewith (the “Purchase Agreement”).


 


1. Promissory Note (this “Note”)


 


1.1 Payment.  The Principal Amount plus all accrued but unpaid interest thereon shall become due and payable on the date (the “Due Date”) that is the earlier of (a) December 31, 2014, or (b) the date of (i) the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or Pulse Systems, LLC, (ii) the merger of the Company or Pulse Systems, LLC, or (iii) the sale of all or substantially all of the equity of the Company or Pulse Systems, LLC (collectively, a “Company Sale”).  Provided that no Event of Default (as defined in Section 4) has occurred, the Company shall not be required to make any payments on this Note prior to the Due Date.  For purposes of this Note, a “business day” shall mean any day which is not a Saturday, Sunday, or a day on which commercial banks in Chicago, Illinois are required or permitted by law to be closed.


 


1.2 Payment Mode.  Payment of this Note shall be made by the Company to the Holder in U.S. Dollars in immediately available funds at the address of the Holder as set forth in the Company’s records or as otherwise directed by the Holder, unless this Note is converted upon an Event of Default into shares of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”) pursuant to Section 5 at the sole election of the Holder.


 






  





  











  








1.3 Application of Payments.  Payments on this Note shall be applied first to accrued interest, and thereafter to the outstanding principal balance hereof.  Any and all payments by the Company to the Holder hereunder shall be made free and clear of, and without deducting or withholding for, any taxes, levies, assessments, imposes, duties, fees or similar charges, except where the Company is required by law to make such deduction or withholding.


 


1.4 Waiver of Presentment.  The Company waives presentment for payment, demand, protest and notice of protest for nonpayment of this Note, and consents to any extension or postponement of the time of payment or any other indulgence.


 


2. Authorized Shares.  As collateral security for this Note, the Company shall maintain in reserve a sufficient number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock for the Company to issue to the Holder all of the shares of Common Stock that would be issuable upon conversion of all of the Principal Amount and the accrued but unpaid interest thereon upon an Event of Default pursuant to Section 5 (such number, a “Sufficient Number of Authorized Shares”).  The Company shall take all necessary and desirable action to further amend its Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, as may be necessary from time to time, in order to maintain a Sufficient Number of Authorized Shares.  If such amendment is not made within four (4) full calendar months after the time at which the Company first does not have a Sufficient Number of Authorized Shares, then the Principal Amount shall increase, by two percent (2%) of the sum of (a) the Principal Amount and (b) the amount of unpaid monthly interest thereon, each full month until such amendment is made and the Company again has a Sufficient Number of Authorized Shares.


 


3. Right of First Offer; Right of First Refusal.  The Company shall not solicit any equity investment, loan, or other financing without first requesting in writing that the Holder propose such financing (“First Offer”).  The Company shall send a written notice to the Holder requesting a First Offer, and then the Holder shall have thirty (30) days to respond.  If the Holder responds with a written financing offer, the Board of Directors of the Company shall negotiate in good faith with the Holder for a period of an additional thirty (30) days in order to reach an agreement on terms. If the parties are able to reach an agreement, the financing shall be consummated within thirty (30) days after the agreement is reached. If the parties are unable to reach agreement, or if the Holder declines to offer financing or does not respond in a timely manner, then the Company shall be free to solicit financing proposals from third parties. However, if a third party presents a “credible financing proposal” (as defined in the next sentence) to the Company (the “Third-Party Proposal”), the Board shall inform the Holder in writing within five (5) days after the Company’s receipt of the proposal, and the Holder shall then have thirty (30) days thereafter to consummate a financing on the same terms and conditions as in the Third-Party Proposal. A “credible financing proposal” is one in which the financing source has provided the Company with written assurances of its ability and willingness to consummate the proposed financing within thirty (30) days. If the Holder declines to provide financing on the same terms and conditions as in the Third-Party Proposal, and if the financing source fails to consummate the financing within thirty (30) days of the date of its proposal, then the Company shall consummate the financing proposed by the Holder, if any was proposed, within thirty (30) days after the financing contemplated by the Third-Party Proposal was
