Once Common Stock equal to the Maximum Share Amount has been issued:

		
	7.2.1

If CVSL and/or the Company shall affect any transaction described in this clause, the Company will:
		
	14.1.1

	If the Company shall declare or make any distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Stock as a dividend, stock repurchase, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including any dividend or distribution to the Company’s shareholders in cash or shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock of a subsidiary (i.e., a spin-off)) (Distribution), then the Holder shall be entitled, upon any Conversion after the date of record for determining shareholders entitled to such Distribution, to receive the amount of such assets that would have been payable to the Holder with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such Conversion had such Holder been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to such Distribution. 

		
	14.3.
	Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price as a result of the events described in this clause 14, the Company, at its expense, shall reasonably promptly compute in good faith such adjustment or readjustment and prepare and furnish to the Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.  The Company shall, promptly upon the written request at any time of the Holder, furnish to such Holder a like certificate setting forth (i) such adjustment or readjustment, (ii) the Conversion Price at the time in effect and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities or property which at the time would be received upon Conversion.

CVSL shall provide the Holder with prior notification of any meeting of CVSL’s shareholders (and copies of proxy materials and other information sent to shareholders, at the same time at which it is sent to such shareholders).  In the event of any taking by CVSL of a record of its shareholders for the purpose of determining shareholders who are entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution, any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire (including by way of merger, consolidation, reclassification or recapitalization) any share of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or for the purpose of determining shareholders who are entitled to vote in connection with any proposed sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of CVSL or any proposed liquidation, dissolution or winding up of CVSL, CVSL shall serve notice on the Holder, at least twenty (20) days prior to the record date specified therein (or thirty (30) days prior to the consummation of the transaction or event, whichever is earlier), of the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, right or other event, and a brief statement regarding the amount and character of such dividend, distribution, right or other event to the extent known at such time.  

		
	14.5.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the immediately preceding sentence or otherwise in this instrument, in no event may the Holder liquidate in any day a number of shares of Common Stock which exceed twenty percent (20%) of the aggregate previous fiscal quarter’s average daily trading volume per day of all shares of Common Stock of CVSL without CVSL’s prior written consent. The Holder may carry-over any amount of shares of Common Stock that are not liquidated in any day to any day which follows in the same week (through Friday of such week) ; however no shares may be accrued and carried over to the following week. Except as set forth below and with respect to shares carried over as permitted by this sentence, the Holder may not liquidate shares of Common Stock in excess of the Leak-out Limit in any single day regardless of any prior liquidation of shares of Common Stock by the Holder.

		
	14.6.
	Clause 14.5 above shall not apply to (i) transfers of Common Stock to any member of the immediate family of the Holder, or to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the Holder and/or the immediate family of the Holder, or (ii) transfers of Common Stock to a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, or other entity that controls or is controlled by, or is under common control with, the Holder, or is wholly-owned by the Holder and/or by members of the immediate family of the Holder, provided that in the case of any such transfer, the transferee shall sign and deliver an agreement to be bound by substantially the same transfer restrictions as are set forth in clause 14.5 and this clause 14.6.  Further, clause 14.5 shall not prevent the Holder or its assignees from tendering Common Stock into a bona-fide, third-party tender offer or a tender offer conducted by CVSL, or from receiving, in any third-party acquisition of CVSL effected by way of a merger or consolidation of CVSL with or into any third party, or a similar transaction, the same consideration for each share of Common Stock (including the shares

of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note) as is received by other CVSL shareholders for their shares of Common Stock.
		
	14.7.
	Further, and subject to clause 14.8 below, clause 14.5 shall not prevent the Holder or its assignees from (i) transferring Common Stock to a bona-fide, third party institutional investor in an arm’s length transaction, or (ii) tendering Common Stock in a bona-fide, third-party tender offer or a tender offer conducted by CVSL, or from receiving, in any third-party acquisition of CVSL effected by way of a merger or consolidation of CVSL with or into any third party, or a similar transaction, the same consideration for each share of Common Stock into which the Note may be converted immediately prior to such event as is received by other CVSL shareholders for their shares of Common Stock.

		
	14.8.
	Before the Holder may make any transfer of Common Stock pursuant to clause 14.7, the Holder shall provide CVSL written notice, including all material terms of an anticipated transfer, and allow CVSL five business days from receipt of such notice to notify the Holder whether or not CVSL will purchase the Common Stock on the terms provided in the written notice (the Offer Notice). If, in the five business day period CVSL chooses not to purchase the Common Stock at the terms proposed by the Holder in the Offer Notice, or fails to state whether or not CVSL will purchase the Common Stock at the proposed terms in the Offer Notice, the Holder shall have ten business days to complete the transfer of Common Stock to a bona-fide third-party investor at the same terms as proposed to CVSL in the Offer Notice. If the Holder does not complete the transfer of the Common Stock offered in the Offer Notice within the ten business day period, and/or has any variation in the terms of in the Offer Notice provided to CVSL, the Holder must give a written updated notice (Update Notice) to CVSL of the anticipated transfer which shall include any and all information on timing and terms of the proposal. The Holder shall then allow CVSL 48 hours from its receipt of the Update Notice to notify the Holder whether or not CVSL will purchase the Common Stock on the terms provided in the most recent Update Notice provided to CVSL. If, in the 48 hour period CVSL chooses not to purchase the Common Stock at the terms proposed by the Holder in the Update Notice, or fails to state whether or not CVSL will purchase the Common Stock at the proposed terms in the Update Notice, the Holder shall have ten more business days to complete the transfer of Common Stock to a bona-fide third-party investor at the same terms as proposed to CVSL in the most recent Update Notice. The above sequence of events shall apply to any proposed transfer from the Holder and shall continue as long as the Holder is attempting to make the transfer.

5

		
	7.2.2
	CVSL shall use reasonable endeavours following the date of the Maximum Share Amount having been reached, to cause the Maximum Share Amount to be lawfully increased to satisfy in full the Conversion Right under this instrument.

The Company and CVSL warrant and represent that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

	If at any time prior to the redemption or Conversion in full of the Note, any merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, or other similar event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock of CVSL shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of another class or classes of stock or securities of CVSL or another entity, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of CVSL, then the Holder shall thereafter have the right to receive upon Conversion, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the Common Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon such Conversion, such stock, securities or assets that the Holder would have been entitled to receive in such transaction had the Note Converted in full immediately prior to such transaction (without regard to any limitations on Conversion set forth herein and if the Holder so elects then upon receipt of such stock, securities or assets, the  Note shall be deemed paid in full) and if such event occurs after a Stock Redemption Date but prior to the expiration of the relevant Extended Redemption Period, then the applicable Conversion Price for determining the Holder’s entitlement  in respect of any Annual Payments shall be the greater of (i) weighted average of the closing prices for the Common Stock for each of the ten trading days ending with the trading day five Business Days preceding the applicable Stock  Redemption Date and (ii) the weighted average of the closing prices for the Common Stock for each of the ten (10) trading days ending with the trading day five (5) Business Days preceding the date of consummation of the event.

In any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustment of the Conversion Price and of the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon Conversion) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the Conversion hereof.  If CVSL and/or the Company shall affect any transaction described in this clause, the Company will:
		
	14.1.1
	give, written notice as soon as reasonably practicable of the actual or intended consummation of, such merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar event or sale of assets; and 

7

		
	14.1.2
	the Company and CVSL undertake to ensure that the resulting successor in title or acquiring entity of CVSL (if not CVSL) shall assume by binding written instrument addressed to the Holder all obligations of the Company under or pursuant to this instrument. 

		
	14.2.
	If the Company shall declare or make any distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Stock as a dividend, stock repurchase, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including any dividend or distribution to the Company’s shareholders in cash or shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock of a subsidiary (i.e., a spin-off)) (Distribution), then the Holder shall be entitled, upon any Conversion after the date of record for determining shareholders entitled to such Distribution, to receive the amount of such assets that would have been payable to the Holder with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such Conversion had such Holder been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to such Distribution. 

		
	14.3.
	Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price as a result of the events described in this clause 14, the Company, at its expense, shall reasonably promptly compute in good faith such adjustment or readjustment and prepare and furnish to the Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.  The Company shall, promptly upon the written request at any time of the Holder, furnish to such Holder a like certificate setting forth (i) such adjustment or readjustment, (ii) the Conversion Price at the time in effect and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities or property which at the time would be received upon Conversion. 

		
	14.4.
	Except as otherwise provided below, the Holder shall have no rights as a holder of Common Stock except following a Conversion. CVSL shall provide the Holder with prior notification of any meeting of CVSL’s shareholders (and copies of proxy materials and other information sent to shareholders, at the same time at which it is sent to such shareholders).  In the event of any taking by CVSL of a record of its shareholders for the purpose of determining shareholders who are entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution, any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire (including by way of merger, consolidation, reclassification or recapitalization) any share of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or for the purpose of determining shareholders who are entitled to vote in connection with any proposed sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of CVSL or any proposed liquidation, dissolution or winding up of CVSL, CVSL shall serve notice on the Holder, at least twenty (20) days prior to the record date specified therein (or thirty (30) days prior to the consummation of the transaction or event, whichever is earlier), of the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, right or other event, and a brief statement regarding the amount and character of such dividend, distribution, right or other event to the extent known at such time.  

		
	14.5.
	At any time following Conversion, the Holder may liquidate a maximum number of shares of Common Stock equal to the greater of (a) ten percent (10%) of the aggregate previous fiscal quarter’s average daily trading volume per day of all shares of common stock of CVSL and (b) 15,000 (fifteen thousand) shares of Common Stock per day (Leak-out Limit). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the immediately preceding sentence or otherwise in this instrument, in no event may the Holder liquidate in any day a number of shares of Common Stock which exceed twenty percent (20%) of the aggregate previous fiscal quarter’s average daily trading volume per day of all shares of Common Stock of CVSL without CVSL’s prior written consent. The Holder may carry-over any amount of shares of Common Stock that are not liquidated in any day to any day which follows in the same week (through Friday of such week) ; however no shares may be accrued and carried over to the following week. Except as set forth below and with respect to shares carried over as permitted by this sentence, the Holder may not liquidate shares of Common Stock in excess of the Leak-out Limit in any single day regardless of any prior liquidation of shares of Common Stock by the Holder.

		
	14.6.
	Clause 14.5 above shall not apply to (i) transfers of Common Stock to any member of the immediate family of the Holder, or to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the Holder and/or the immediate family of the Holder, or (ii) transfers of Common Stock to a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, or other entity that controls or is controlled by, or is under common control with, the Holder, or is wholly-owned by the Holder and/or by members of the immediate family of the Holder, provided that in the case of any such transfer, the transferee shall sign and deliver an agreement to be bound by substantially the same transfer restrictions as are set forth in clause 14.5 and this clause 14.6.  Further, clause 14.5 shall not prevent the Holder or its assignees from tendering Common Stock into a bona-fide, third-party tender offer or a tender offer conducted by CVSL, or from receiving, in any third-party acquisition of CVSL effected by way of a merger or consolidation of CVSL with or into any third party, or a similar transaction, the same consideration for each share of Common Stock (including the shares 

8

of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note) as is received by other CVSL shareholders for their shares of Common Stock.
		
	14.7.
	Further, and subject to clause 14.8 below, clause 14.5 shall not prevent the Holder or its assignees from (i) transferring Common Stock to a bona-fide, third party institutional investor in an arm’s length transaction, or (ii) tendering Common Stock in a bona-fide, third-party tender offer or a tender offer conducted by CVSL, or from receiving, in any third-party acquisition of CVSL effected by way of a merger or consolidation of CVSL with or into any third party, or a similar transaction, the same consideration for each share of Common Stock into which the Note may be converted immediately prior to such event as is received by other CVSL shareholders for their shares of Common Stock.

		
	14.8.
	Before the Holder may make any transfer of Common Stock pursuant to clause 14.7, the Holder shall provide CVSL written notice, including all material terms of an anticipated transfer, and allow CVSL five business days from receipt of such notice to notify the Holder whether or not CVSL will purchase the Common Stock on the terms provided in the written notice (the Offer Notice). If, in the five business day period CVSL chooses not to purchase the Common Stock at the terms proposed by the Holder in the Offer Notice, or fails to state whether or not CVSL will purchase the Common Stock at the proposed terms in the Offer Notice, the Holder shall have ten business days to complete the transfer of Common Stock to a bona-fide third-party investor at the same terms as proposed to CVSL in the Offer Notice. If the Holder does not complete the transfer of the Common Stock offered in the Offer Notice within the ten business day period, and/or has any variation in the terms of in the Offer Notice provided to CVSL, the Holder must give a written updated notice (Update Notice) to CVSL of the anticipated transfer which shall include any and all information on timing and terms of the proposal. The Holder shall then allow CVSL 48 hours from its receipt of the Update Notice to notify the Holder whether or not CVSL will purchase the Common Stock on the terms provided in the most recent Update Notice provided to CVSL. If, in the 48 hour period CVSL chooses not to purchase the Common Stock at the terms proposed by the Holder in the Update Notice, or fails to state whether or not CVSL will purchase the Common Stock at the proposed terms in the Update Notice, the Holder shall have ten more business days to complete the transfer of Common Stock to a bona-fide third-party investor at the same terms as proposed to CVSL in the most recent Update Notice. The above sequence of events shall apply to any proposed transfer from the Holder and shall continue as long as the Holder is attempting to make the transfer.
