3. PRICE-BASED
ANTI-DILUTION ADJUSTMENT OF CONVERSION PRICE



|(a) | If at any time or from time to time after the date hereof, the Company issues or sells, or is deemed by the express provisions of this Section 3 to have issued or sold,
Additional Shares of Common Stock, other than as provided in Sections 4(a)-4(d) below, for an Effective Price less than the lower of (i) the Reference Price or (ii) the then effective Conversion Price (such lower amount, the Trigger
Price), then and in each such case, the then effective Conversion Price shall be reduced, as of the opening of business on the date of such issue or sale, to a price determined in accordance with the following formula:
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|        |  |             |  | 
|------- |  | ----------- |  | 
|A = B x |  | [C + (D/E)] |  | 
|        |  | [C + F]     |  | 

For the purposes of this clause (a) and clause (g), the following definitions shall apply:

A= the Conversion Price in effect immediately after such issue or sale of Additional Shares of Common Stock.

B = the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale of Additional Shares of Common Stock.

C = the number of shares of Common Stock Outstanding (as defined in clause (b) below) immediately prior to such issue or sale of
Additional Shares of Common Stock.

D= the Aggregate Consideration received in exchange for such Additional Shares of Common
Stock.

E = the Trigger Price.

F = the number of such Additional Shares of Common Stock so issued or sold.



|(b) | For the purposes of Section 3(a), the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be outstanding (Common Stock Outstanding) as of a given date shall be the sum of
(A) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, plus (B) the number of shares of Common Stock into which the then outstanding Convertible Notes could be converted if fully converted on the day immediately preceding the given date,
plus (C) the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant on the day immediately preceding the given date.
|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(c) | No adjustment shall be made to the Conversion Price under this Section 3 in an amount less than one cent per share. Any adjustment required by this Section 3 shall be
rounded to the nearest one cent ($0.01) per share. Any adjustment otherwise required by this Section 3 that is not required to be made due to the preceding two sentences shall be included in any subsequent adjustment to the Conversion Price.
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(d) | For the purpose of making any adjustment required under this Section 3, the aggregate consideration received by the Company for any issue or sale of securities (the
Aggregate Consideration) shall be defined as: (A) to the extent it consists of cash, be computed at the gross amount of cash received by the Company before deduction of any underwriting or similar commissions, compensation or
concessions paid or allowed by the Company in connection with such issue or sale and without deduction of any expenses payable by the Company, (B) to the extent it consists of property other than cash, be computed at the fair value of that
property as determined in good faith by the Board, and (C) if Additional Shares of Common Stock, Convertible Securities or rights or options to purchase either Additional Shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities are issued or sold
together with other stock or securities or other assets of the Company for a consideration which covers both, be computed as the portion of the consideration so received that may be reasonably determined in good faith by the Board (in a manner
consistent with comparable activities such as valuing stock options for accounting purposes) to be allocable to such Additional Shares of Common Stock, Convertible Securities or rights or options.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(e) | For the purpose of the adjustment required under this Section 3, if the Company issues or sells (x) capital stock, options, warrants, purchase rights or other securities
convertible into, Additional Shares of Common Stock, other than the Rights (such convertible stock or securities being herein referred to as Convertible Securities), or (y) rights (other than the Rights) or options for the
purchase of Additional Shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities and if the Effective Price of such Additional Shares of Common Stock is less than the Conversion Price, in each case the Company shall be deemed to have issued at the time of
the issuance of such rights or options or Convertible Securities the maximum number of Additional Shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise or conversion thereof and to have received as consideration for the issuance of such shares an amount
equal to the total amount of the consideration, if any, received by the Company for the issuance of such rights or options or Convertible Securities plus:
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (i) | in the case of such rights or options, the minimum amounts of consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise of such rights or options; and
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | in the case of Convertible Securities, the minimum amounts of consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion thereof (other than by cancellation of liabilities or
obligations evidenced by such
| | ---- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Page 12 of 40



---

Convertible Securities); provided that if the minimum amounts of such consideration cannot be
ascertained, but are a function of antidilution or similar protective clauses, the Company shall be deemed to have received the minimum amounts of consideration without reference to such clauses.



| | (iii) | If the minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise or conversion of rights, options or Convertible Securities is reduced over time or on the occurrence
or non-occurrence of specified events other than by reason of antidilution or similar protective adjustments, the Effective Price shall be recalculated using the figure to which such minimum amount of consideration is reduced; provided
however, that if the minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise or conversion of such rights, options or Convertible Securities is subsequently increased, the Effective Price shall be again recalculated using the
increased minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise or conversion of such rights, options or Convertible Securities.
| | ----- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (iv) | No further adjustment of the Conversion Price, as adjusted upon the issuance of such rights, options or Convertible Securities, shall be made as a result of the actual issuance of
Additional Shares of Common Stock or the exercise of any such rights or options or the conversion of any such Convertible Securities. If any such rights or options or the conversion privilege represented by any such Convertible Securities shall
expire without having been exercised, the Conversion Price as adjusted upon the issuance of such rights, options or Convertible Securities shall be subsequently adjusted to the Conversion Price which would have been in effect had an adjustment been
made on the basis that the only Additional Shares of Common Stock so issued were the Additional Shares of Common Stock, if any, actually issued or sold on the exercise of such rights or options or rights of conversion of such Convertible Securities,
and such Additional Shares of Common Stock, if any, were issued or sold for the consideration actually received by the Company upon such exercise, plus the consideration, if any, actually received by the Company for the granting of all such rights
or options, whether or not exercised, plus the consideration received for issuing or selling the Convertible Securities actually converted, plus the consideration, if any, actually received by the Company (other than by cancellation of liabilities
or obligations evidenced by such Convertible Securities) on the conversion of such Convertible Securities.
| | ---- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(f) | For the purpose of making any adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Section 3, Additional Shares of Common Stock shall mean all shares of Common Stock
issued by the Company or deemed to be issued pursuant to this Section 3, other than:
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (i) | shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Convertible Notes;
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------



Page 13 of 40



---

| | (ii) | shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities issued after the date hereof to employees, officers or directors of, or consultants to, the Company or any subsidiary pursuant to
stock purchase or stock option plans or other arrangements that are approved by the Board (provided that such consultants receive no more than 75,000 shares of Common Stock in aggregate per calendar year and the issuance of such shares to
such consultants shall be for services and in amounts that are consistent with past issuances);
| | ---- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (iii) | shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the exercise of Convertible Securities outstanding as of the date hereof, including the Warrant; or
| | ----- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (iv) | shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities issued in connection with any stock split, stock dividend or recapitalization by the Company.
| | ---- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

References to Common Stock in the subsections of this clause (f) shall mean all shares of Common Stock issued by the Company or deemed to be issued
pursuant to this Section 3.



|(g) | The Effective Price shall mean the price at which Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued or sold and shall be determined in accordance with the following
formula:
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Effective Price = (D)/(F)

where D and F have the meaning given to them in Section 3(a) above.



|(h) | In the event that the number of shares of Additional Shares of Common Stock or the Effective Price cannot be ascertained at the time of issuance, such Additional Shares of Common
Stock shall be deemed issued immediately upon the occurrence of the first event that makes such number of shares or the Effective Price, as applicable, ascertainable.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4. FURTHER ADJUSTMENTS TO CONVERSION PRICE

The Conversion Price and the Note Conversion Shares shall be subject to further adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events as follows:



|(a) | Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger, Mandatory Share Exchange, Sale or Transfer.Upon the occurrence of any Adjustment Events while any outstanding principal amount of
this Note or any accrued interest thereon remains capable of being converted pursuant to Section 2 above, the Holder may in its sole discretion require the Company, or any successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, without payment
of any additional consideration therefor, to execute and
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Page 14 of 40



---

deliver to the Holder a new note which shall be upon terms no less favorable to the Holder than those
then applicable to this Note (a New Note) and upon conversion of the principal amount of the New Note and all accrued interest thereon or conversion of any portion of such principal amount and interest, the Holder shall receive in lieu
of each share of Common Stock theretofore issuable upon such conversion of this Note, the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities, money or property receivable upon such Adjustment Event by the holder of one share of Common Stock
issuable upon such conversion of this Note had this Note been converted in such manner immediately prior to such Adjustment Event. Such new Note shall provide for adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the
adjustments provided for in Sections 3 and 4 hereto. Prior to such request for a New Note, this Note shall be convertible for such number of shares for which the New Note would be convertible.



|(b) | Subdivision of Shares. If, while any outstanding principal amount of this Note or any accrued interest thereon remains capable of being converted pursuant to Section 2
above, the Company shall subdivide its Common Stock (a Subdivision), then as of the effective date of such Subdivision, or, if the Company shall take a record of holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of so subdividing, as of such
record date, whichever is earlier, the Conversion Price in effect on such date shall be adjusted by dividing such Conversion Price by the Note Adjustment Factor applicable to such Subdivision.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(c) | Combination of Shares.If, while any outstanding principal amount of this Note or any accrued interest thereon remains capable of being converted pursuant to Section 2
above, the Company shall combine its Common Stock (a Combination), then as of the effective date of such Combination, or, if the Company shall take a record of holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of so combining, as of such
record date, whichever is earlier, the Conversion Price in effect on such date shall be adjusted by dividing such Conversion Price by the Note Adjustment Factor applicable to such Combination.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(d) | Stock Dividends. If, while any outstanding principal amount of this Note or any accrued interest thereon remains capable of being converted pursuant to Section 2 above,
the Company shall pay a Stock Dividend, then as of the date the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of receiving such dividend or other distribution (or if no such record is taken, as at the date of such
payment or other distribution), the Conversion Price in effect on such date shall be adjusted by dividing such Conversion Price by the Note Adjustment Factor applicable to such Stock Dividend; provided that the provisions of this
clause (d) shall not apply under any of the circumstances for which an adjustment is provided in clauses (a), (b) or (c).
|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

such conversion together with any other securities and property, if any, to which the Holder is entitled on such conversion under the terms of this Note. The Company shall not issue any fraction of a share of Common Stock upon any conversion. If the
issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company shall calculate and pay a cash adjustment in respect of such fraction.

before their maturity, the securities must be easily re-marketed. To accomplish this, the securities must be conventional products with strong name recognition.

VII. TRADE GUIDELINES

All purchases and sales will be executed at the best net price with the principal dealers and
banks in the particular securities. U.S. Government, U.S. Federal Agency and repurchase agreement securities brokers will be limited to the list of Primary Government Securities Dealers published by the Federal Reserve Bank. All securities purchased
will be in the name of the account of the nominee name of the custodian bank.

VIII. TREASURY ADVISOR

The company shall establish a relationship with a Treasury Advisor to assist in the administration of these guidelines. The Treasury Advisor shall have the responsibility
of:
