In order to so elect, the Holder must deliver written notice of the election and the amount due to the Issuer via certified mail, return receipt requested, at the Issuer’s address as set forth herein (or any otheraddress provided to the Holder), and thereafter the Issuer shall have ten business days upon receipt to cure the Event of Default, pay the Note, or convert the amount due on the Note pursuant to the conversion formula set forth above.
