At any time following the Original Issuance Date, the Holder shall be entitled, upon written notice to the Company, to convert all or any part of the outstanding balance of this Note (excluding interest) into a number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) at $0.001 per share (the “Conversion Price”).

Before the Holder shall be entitled to convert this Note into shares of Common Stock in connection with a conversion pursuant to Section 1(a), the Holder shall surrender this Note (or, if the Holder alleges that this Note has been lost, stolen or destroyed, a lost affidavit and agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company to indemnify the Company against any claim that may be made against the Company on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of such original promissory note), at the office of the Company together with the Conversion Notice.

(e)     Prepayment. The Company shall be entitled to prepay this Note at its option at anytime.


 


2.     Adjustments.


 


(a)     Adjustment Upon Common Stock Event. At any time or from time to time after the Original Issuance Date, upon the happening of a Common Stock Event (as hereinafter defined), the Conversion Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such Common Stock Event, be adjusted by dividing the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such Common Stock Event by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately after such Common Stock Event, and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to such Common Stock Event, and the product so obtained shall thereafter be the Conversion Price. The Conversion Price shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of each subsequent Common Stock Event. As used herein, the term “Common Stock Event” shall mean (i) the issue by the Company of additional shares of Common Stock as a dividend or other distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (ii) a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, or (iii) a combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock.


 


(b)     Adjustments for Other Dividends and Distributions. If at any time or from time to time after the Original Issuance Date the Company pays a dividend or makes another distribution to the holders of the Common Stock payable in securities of the Company, other than an event constituting a Common Stock Event, then in each such event provision shall be made so that the Holder shall receive upon conversion thereof, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable upon conversion thereof, the amount of securities of the Company which the Holder would have received had this Note been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event (or such record date, as applicable) and had they thereafter, during the period from the date of such event (or such record date, as applicable) to and including the conversion date, retained such securities receivable by them as aforesaid during such period, subject to all other adjustments called for during such period under this Section 2 with respect to the rights of the Holder or with respect to such other securities by their terms.


 


(c)     Adjustment for Reclassification, Exchange and Substitution. If at any time or from time to time after the Original Issuance Date, the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of this Note is changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by recapitalization, reclassification or otherwise (other than by a Common Stock Event or, reorganization, merger, or consolidation provided for elsewhere in this Section 2), then in any such event, but subject to Section 1, the Holder shall have the right thereafter to convert this Note into the kind and amount of stock and other securities and property

receivable upon such recapitalization, reclassification or other change by holders of the number of shares of Common Stock into which this Note could have been converted immediately prior to such recapitalization, reclassification or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein or with respect to such other securities or property by the terms thereof.


 


(d)     Reorganizations, Mergers and Consolidations. If at any time or from time-to-time after the Original Issue Date there is a reorganization of the Company (other than a recapitalization, subdivision, combination, reclassification or exchange of shares provided for elsewhere in this Section 2) or a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation, then, as a part of such reorganization, merger or consolidation, provision shall be made so that the Holder thereafter shall be entitled to receive, upon conversion of this Note, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Company, or of such successor corporation resulting from such reorganization, merger or consolidation, to which a holder of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled on such reorganization, merger or consolidation. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 2 with respect to the rights of the Holder after the reorganization, merger or consolidation to the end that the provisions of this Section 2 (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and number of shares issuable upon conversion of this Note) shall be applicable after that event and be as nearly equivalent to the provisions hereof as may be practicable. This Section 2 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, mergers and consolidations.
