(1) Options.  In case at any time hereafter the Company shall in any manner grant any right to subscribe for or to purchase, or any option for the purchase of Common Stock or any stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (such convertible or exchangeable stock or securities being hereinafter referred to as “Convertible Securities") other than the Notes and other than rights or options which may be granted to employees of the Company whether or not pursuant to a plan, and the minimum price per share for which Common Stock is issuable, pursuant to such rights or options or upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities (determined by dividing (i) the total amount if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the granting of such rights or options, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of such rights or options, plus in the case of such Convertible Securities, the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration if any, payable upon the conversion or exchange thereof, by (ii) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights or options or upon the conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such rights or options) shall be less than the Note Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the time of the granting of such rights or options, then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights or options or upon conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such rights or options shall (as of the date of granting of such rights or options) be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued for said price per share as so determined; provided, that no further adjustment of the Note Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issue of Common Stock deemed to have been issued; and further provided, that, upon the expiration of such rights (including rights to convert or exchange) or options, (a) the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued and outstanding by reason of the fact that they were issuable pursuant to such rights or options (including rights to convert or exchange) were not exercised, shall no longer be deemed to be issued and outstanding, and (b) the Note Conversion Price shall forthwith be adjusted to the price which would have prevailed had all adjustments been made on the basis of the issue only of the shares of Common Stock actually issued upon the exercise of such rights or options or upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

 

(2) Convertible Securities. In case the Company shall in any manner, subsequent to issuance of this Note, issue or sell any Convertible Securities, and the minimum price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities (determined by dividing (i) the total amount received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issue or sale of such Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion or exchange thereof, by (ii) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities) shall be less than the Note Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale, then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities shall (as of the date of the issue or sale of such Convertible Securities) be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued for said price per share as so determined; provided, that no further adjustment of the Note Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issue of Common Stock so deemed to have been issued, and, further provided, that if any such issue or sale of such Convertible Securities is made upon exercise of any right to subscribe for or to purchase or any option to purchase any such Convertible Securities for which an adjustment of the Note Conversion Price has been or is to be made pursuant to other provisions of this subsection 6.4(a) no further adjustment of the Note Conversion Price shall be made by reason of such issue or sale; and, further provided. that, upon the termination of the right to convert or to exchange such Convertible Securities for Common Stock, (a) the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued and outstanding by reason of the fact that they were issuable upon conversion or exchange of any such Convertible Securities, which were not so converted or exchanged, shall no longer be deemed to be issued and outstanding, and (b) the Note Conversion Price shall forthwith be adjusted to the price which would have prevailed had all adjustments been made on the basis of the issue only of the number of shares of Common Stock actually issued upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

 

(3) Determination of Issue Price. In case any shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities or any rights or options to purchase any such stock or securities shall be issued for cash, the consideration received therefor, after deducting therefrom any commission or other expenses paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting of, or otherwise in connection with, the issuance thereof, shall be deemed to be the amount received by the Company therefor. in case any shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities or any rights or options to purchase any such stock or securities shall be issued for a consideration part or all of which shall be other than cash, then, for the purpose of this subsection 6.4 (a), the Board of Directors of the Company shall make a good faith determination of the fair value of such consideration, irrespective of accounting treatment, and such Common Stock, Convertible Securities, rights or options shall be deemed to have been issued for an amount of cash equal to the value so determined by the Board of Directors. The reclassification of securities other than Common Stock into securities including Common Stock shall be deemed to involve the issuance for a consideration other than cash of such Common Stock immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of security holders entitled to receive such Common Stock. In case any shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities or any rights or options to purchase any such stock or other securities shall be issued together with other stock or securities or other assets of the Company for a consideration which includes both, the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine what part of the consideration so received is to be deemed to be consideration for the issue of such shares of such Common Stock, Convertible Securities, rights or options.

(4) Determination of Date of Issue. In case the Company shall take a record of the holders of any Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (i) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Stock or in Convertible Securities, or (ii) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock or Convertible Securities, then such record date shall be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.

 

(5) Treasury Shares. For the purpose of this subsection 4.4(a), shares of Common Stock at any relevant time owned or held by or for the account of the Company shall not be deemed outstanding.

 

(b) Adjustment of Number of Shares. Anything in this Section 4.4 to the contrary notwithstanding, in case the Company shall at any time issue Common Stock or Convertible Securities by way of dividend or other distribution on any stock of the Company or subdivide or combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Note Conversion Price shall be proportionately decreased in the case of such issuance (on the day following the date fixed for determining shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution) or decreased in the case of such subdivision or increased in the case of such combination (on the date that such subdivision or combination shall become effective).

 

(c) No Adjustment for Small Amounts. Anything in this Section 4.4 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be required to give effect to any adjustment in the Note Conversion Price unless and until the net effect of one or more adjustments, determined as above provided, shall have required a change of the Note Conversion Price by at least one cent, but when the cumulative net effect of more than one adjustment so determined shall be to change the actual Note Conversion Price by at least one cent, such change in the Note Conversion Price shall thereupon be given effect.

 

(d) Number of Shares Adjusted. Upon any adjustment of the Note Conversion Price, the Holder shall thereafter (until another such adjustment) be entitled to purchase, at the new Note Conversion Price, the number of shares, calculated to the nearest full share, obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock initially issuable upon conversion of this Note by the Note Conversion Price in effect on the date hereof and dividing the product so obtained by the new Note Conversion Price.

 

4.5  No Fractional Shares.  No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of this Note.  In lieu of the Company issuing any fractional shares to the Holder upon the conversion of this Note, the Company shall pay to the Holder the amount of outstanding principal and interest hereunder that is not so converted.
