13. Remedies, Characterizations, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Note shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Note, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), no remedy contained herein shall be deemed a waiver of compliance with the provisions giving rise to such remedy and nothing herein shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue actual damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Note. The Company covenants to the Holder that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as expressly provided herein. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, conversion and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Holder thereof and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Company (or the performance thereof). The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.
14. Specific Shall Not Limit General; Construction. No specific provision contained in this Note shall limit or modify any more general provision contained herein. This Note shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Company and all Purchasers of Notes pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement and shall not be construed against any Person as the drafter hereof.
15. Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of the Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.
16. Notice. Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Note must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered: (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally; (ii) upon receipt, when sent by facsimile (provided confirmation of transmission is mechanically or electronically generated and kept on file by the sending party); or (iii) one (1) Trading Day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight delivery service, in each case properly addressed to the party to receive the same.

17. Transfer of this Note. The Holder may assign or transfer some or all of its rights hereunder, subject to compliance with the Securities Act and Section 5.7 of the Securities Purchase Agreement without the consent of the Company. The Company shall not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights and obligations under this Note without the prior written consent of the Majority Holders and any attempted assignment or transfer without such consent shall be null and void. The Company shall maintain an office where the Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”). The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may change the Registrar upon written notice to each holder of Notes. Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Notes and for all other purposes.
18. Payment of Collection, Enforcement and Other Costs. If (a) this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or enforcement or is collected or enforced through any legal proceeding; or (b) an attorney is retained to represent the Holder in any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership of the Company or other proceedings affecting Company creditors’ rights and involving a claim under this Note, then the Company shall pay the costs incurred by the Holder for such collection, enforcement or action, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements.
19. Cancellation. After all Principal and other amounts at any time owed under this Note have been paid in full or converted into Shares and all Kicker Shares issuable under this Note have been issued in accordance with the terms hereof, this Note shall automatically be deemed canceled, shall be surrendered to the Company for cancellation and shall not be reissued.
20. Note Exchangeable for Different Denominations. In the event of a redemption pursuant to this Note of less than all of the Principal, the Company shall promptly
cause to be issued and delivered to the Holder, upon tender by the Holder of this Note, a new Note of like tenor representing the remaining Principal that has not been so redeemed. This Note is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Company, for a new Note or Notes containing the same terms and conditions and representing in the aggregate the Principal, and each such new Note will represent such portion of such Principal as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender. The date the Company issued this Note shall be the Issuance Date hereof regardless of the number of times a new Note shall be issued.
(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under the Notes, the Securities Purchase Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall be made without any set-off, counterclaim or deduction and free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes; provided that if the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 21(a)), the Holder receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Company or such Subsidiary, as applicable, shall make such deductions and (iii) the Company or such Subsidiary shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law; provided, further, that if the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is required to make an additional payment to the Holder under this Section 21(a), and if the Holder is entitled to a cash refund or credit against cash Taxes payable which is both identifiable and quantifiable by the Holder as being attributable to the imposition of such Indemnified Taxes (a “Tax Refund”), and such Tax Refund may be obtained without increased liability or obligation to the Holder (including any obligation of the Holder to file Tax returns in jurisdictions where it would not otherwise be obligated to file Tax returns), then, upon the written request of the Company, the Holder shall apply for such Tax Refund and, to the extent such Tax Refund is received by the Holder, shall reimburse the Company or such Subsidiary for such amount as the Holder shall determine to be the proportion of the Tax Refund attributable to such additional payment as will leave the Holder after the reimbursement in the same position as it would have been if the additional payment had not been required; provided that, if any Tax Refund reimbursed by the Holder to the Company or such Subsidiary is subsequently disallowed, the Company shall repay the Holder such amount (together with interest and any applicable penalty payable to the Holder to the relevant taxing authority) promptly after the Holder notifies the Company of such disallowance. The Company agrees to reimburse the Holder for the Holder’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, if any, incurred in complying with any request hereunder and agrees that all costs incurred by the Holder in respect of this Section 21(a) may be deducted from the amount of any reimbursement to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of any Tax Refund pursuant to this Section 21(a). Nothing in this Section 21(a) shall require the Holder to disclose to the Company any of its Tax returns or any other Tax-related information that it deems to be confidential.
(b) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall indemnify the Holder, within thirty (30) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes paid by the Holder, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under the Notes, the Securities Purchase Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or
asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 21) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate of the Holder as to the amount of such payment or liability (together with a calculation of such payment or liability and supporting documentation reasonably requested by the Company) under this Section 21 shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error.
(c) Withholding Obligations. Subject to Sections 21(a) and (b), if the Company is subject to withholding tax obligations under applicable law with respect to any transaction under this Note, then, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Note, the Company shall be entitled to withhold cash or Shares in the amount that the Company is required to withhold.
22. Waiver of Notice. To the extent permitted by law, the Company hereby waives demand, notice, protest and all other demands and notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of this Note, Securities Purchase Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.
23. Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and performance of this Note shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of New York, including Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law. Each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Note and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. The Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally appoints its General Counsel at the address set forth in Section 16 (the “Company Process Agent”) as agent to receive on behalf of the Company and its property service of copies of the summons and complaint and any other process which may be served in any action referred to above or any other proceeding in any New York State or Federal court. In any action or proceeding in a New York State or Federal court sitting in The City of New York, such service may be made on the Company by delivering a copy of such process to the Company in care of the Company Process Agent at such Company Process Agent’s above address and by depositing a copy of such process in the mails by certified or registered air mail, addressed to the Company at the address for such notices to it under this Note (such service to be effective upon such receipt by the Company Process Agent and the depositing of such process in the mails as aforesaid). The Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally authorizes and directs such Company Process Agent to accept such service on its behalf. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.
24. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE COMPANY, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES, AND THE HOLDER OF THIS NOTE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY RIGHTS THEY MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREE NOT TO REQUEST, A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION BASED UPON, OR ARISING OUT OF THIS NOTE OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
25. Effect of Redemption; No Prepayment. Upon payment of the Redemption Price in accordance with the terms hereof with respect to any portion of the Principal of this Note, such portion of the Principal of this Note shall be deemed paid in full and shall no longer be deemed Outstanding for any purpose. Except as specifically set forth in this Note, the Company does not have any right, option, or obligation, to pay any portion of the Principal at any time prior to the Maturity Date or any Extended Maturity Date if the Maturity Date has been extended in accordance with Section 4.
26. Purchase of Notes by the Company. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary or Affiliate to, voluntarily purchase or acquire any portion of any Note, unless concurrently with such action, the Company, such Subsidiary or Affiliate makes an offer to all Holders to acquire the same portion of their Notes on the same terms. This Section 26 may not be amended except with the written consent of the holders of two-thirds (2/3) of the aggregate principal amount of all the Notes then Outstanding.
27. Other Payments to Holders of Notes. The Company will not directly or indirectly pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of supplemental or additional interest, fee or otherwise, or grant any security, to any holder of Notes as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into by any holder of Notes or any waiver or amendment of any of the terms and provisions hereof or thereof unless such remuneration is concurrently paid, or security is concurrently granted, on the same terms, ratably to each holder of Notes then outstanding that consented to such waiver or amendment.
28. Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to the Holder hereunder or the Holder enforces or exercises its rights hereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, by a trustee, receiver or any other person under any law (including any bankruptcy law, U.S. state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.
