(a)           At the time any Loan Advance is made under the Third Loan Agreement, no other Default or Event of Default under any Existing Loan Agreement shall exist or would result therefrom;

A.   Optional Conversion.  Any or all of the outstanding principal amount of and accrued interest under this Note shall convert, at the option of the Investor, to convert any or all of the outstanding principal amount of and accrued interest under this Note into the Applicable Number (as defined below) of shares (“Shares”) of the Common Stock of Bering Exploration, Inc. (“BERX”), a Nevada corporation.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Investor’s right to convert this Note is subject to the Investor confirming to the Company’s
reasonable satisfaction that such Investor continues to be an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  Upon such conversion of this Note, the Investor hereby agrees to deliver the original of this Note (or a notice to the effect that the original Note has been lost, stolen or destroyed and an agreement acceptable to the Company whereby the holder agrees to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection with this Note) for cancellation.  Investor shall exercise its right of conversion by giving written notice to the Company that such holder elects to convert all or a portion of this Note into Common Stock, and by surrender of this Note for the shares so to be converted to the Company at its principal office (or such other office or agency of the Company as the Company may designate by notice in writing to the Investor)
during its usual business hours, together with a statement of the name or names (with addresses) in which the Common Stock, shall be issued.  In the event that an Investor elects to convert a portion, but not all, of the principal amount of this Note into Convertible Notes, the Company shall issue a new note, in the same form as this Note, for the remainder of the principal amount of this Note that has not been so converted.  For purposes hereof, "Applicable Number" shall mean such number (rounded up to the nearest whole share) as is obtained by dividing (i) the principal amount of and accrued interest under the Note to be converted by $0.50 (subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 8(c) (the “Conversion Price”).

 

B.   Effect of Conversion.  Upon conversion of this Note in full and the payment of any amounts specified in this Section 4(a), the Company shall be forever released from all its obligations and liabilities under this Note.

 

C.   Adjustments.

 

(i)           Adjustment for Stock Splits and Combinations.  If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the date hereof effect a subdivision or recapitalization of its outstanding shares of Common Stock, then the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased, and conversely, if the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the date hereof combine the outstanding Common Stock, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before the combination shall be proportionately increased.  Any adjustment under this Section 8(c)(i) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or
combination becomes effective.

 

  

Page 4 of 7

  

 

(ii) Adjustment for Reorganization, Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets.  If at any time or from time to time there shall be a capital reorganization of the Common Stock (other than a subdivision, combination, reclassification or exchange of shares provided for elsewhere in this Section 8) or a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s properties and assets to any other person, then, as a part of such reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale, provision shall be made so that the holders of this Note shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of the Note, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Company, or
the successor corporation resulting from such merger or consolidation or sale, to which ha holder of securities of the Company deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled on such reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale.  In any such case, appropriate adjsutment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 8 with respect to the rights of the holder of this Note after the reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale to the end that the provisions of this Section 8 (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares receivable upon conversion of the Note) shall be applicable after that event as nearly as equivalent hereto as may be practicable.

 

(iii)  Adjustment for Stock Price. In the event that the price of BERX $0.001 par value common stock is below $0.70 per share, as quoted on the Pink Sheets or Over-the-counter markets, on the six month anniversary of the Note, the Conversion Price shall be $0.35 per share.

 

(iv)           Minimum Adjustment.  No adjustment of the Conversion Price, however, shall be made in an amount less than two cents ($0.01), but any such lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time and together with the next subsequent adjustment which together with any adjustments so carried forward shall amount to one cent ($0.01) or more.

 

(v)           Certificate of Adjustment.  Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the applicable Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 8, the Company shall promptly compute each adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare and furnish to the Investor a certificate, signed by the President or Chief Financial Officer of the Company, setting forth the adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.

 

9.   Successors and Assigns.  Subject to the restrictions on transfer described in Sections 10 and 11 below, the rights and obligations of the Company and Investor shall be binding upon and benefit the successors, assigns, heirs, administrators and transferees of the parties.

Upon receiving such written notice
and reasonably satisfactory opinion, if so requested, or other evidence, the Company, as promptly as practicable, shall notify Investor that Investor may sell or otherwise dispose of this Note or such securities, all in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered to the Company.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any offer, sale or other disposition of this Note or securities into which such Note may be converted to any person or entity affiliated with Investor (an “Affiliated Party”), Investor will give written notice to the
Company prior thereto, describing briefly the manner thereof, and the Investor may transfer the Note to such Affiliated Party as long as the Affiliated Party agrees in writing to be bound by the terms hereof as if such Affiliated Party was the original Investor hereunder.  Each Note thus transferred and each certificate representing the securities thus transferred shall bear a legend as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to ensure compliance with the Securities Act, unless in the opinion of counsel for the Company such legend is not required in order to ensure compliance with the Securities Act.  The Company may issue stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent in connection with such restrictions.  Subject to the foregoing, transfers of this Note shall be registered upon registration books maintained for such purpose by or on behalf of the Company.  Prior to presentation of this Note for
registration of transfer, the Company shall treat the registered holder hereof as the owner and  holder of this Note for the purpose of receiving all payments of principal and interest hereon and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not this Note shall be overdue and the Company shall not be affected by notice to the contrary.
