a. General.
(i) Conversion into Common Stock. Subject to the provisions of Section 5(a)(iii), on any one or more occasions on or after the date hereof, the Holder shall be entitled to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid Conversion Amount (as defined below) into fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), or any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Company into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed, exchanged or reclassified in accordance with Section 5(c), at the Conversion Rate (as defined below) then in effect. The Company shall not issue any fraction of a share of Common Stock upon any conversion. If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company shall round such fraction of a share of Common Stock up to the nearest whole share. The Company shall pay any and all transfer, stamp and similar taxes that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Common Stock upon conversion of any Conversion Amount. Any such conversion set forth in a conversion notice dated prior thereto, shall be deemed to be effective as of the date of such conversion notice (the “Conversion Date”).
(ii) Conversion Rate. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any Conversion Amount pursuant to Section 5(a) shall be determined by dividing (x) such Conversion Amount by (y) the Conversion Price (the “Conversion Rate”). The Conversion Amount shall be subject from time to time to adjustment as described below.
1. “Conversion Amount” means the sum of (A) the portion of the Principal to be converted, amortized, redeemed or otherwise with respect to which this determination is being made, and (B) any accrued and unpaid Interest and Late Charges with respect to such Principal.
2. “Conversion Price” means, as of any Conversion Date (as defined below) or other date of determination, $0.35 per share, subject to adjustment as provided herein.
(iii) Conversion Limit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Note, at no time may a Holder of this Note (other than the Holder for purposes of this Section 5a(iii) convert this Note into Common Stock if the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to such conversion would cause the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such Holder at such time to exceed, when aggregated with all other shares of Common Stock owned by such Holder and its affiliates at such time, the number of shares of Common Stock which would result in such Holder, its affiliates, any investment manager having discretionary investment authority over the accounts or assets of such Holder, or any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with such Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) and Section 16 of the 1934 Act, beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act and the rules thereunder) in excess of 9.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock.

(iv) Effect of Conversion. Upon conversion of this Note in full in the manner provided by this Section 5 (c) below, this Note shall be deemed fully satisfied and cancelled.
b. Authorized Shares. The Company covenants that during the period the conversion right exists, the Company will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance of 110% of the number of shares of Common Stock upon the full conversion of the Holder’s Note and the other Notes issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Reserved Amount”). If the Company shall issue any securities or make any change to its capital structure which would change the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Notes shall be convertible at the then current Conversion Price, the Company shall at the same time make proper provision so that thereafter there shall be a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, for conversion of the outstanding Notes. The Company (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably authorized by its Board of Directors to issue certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Holder’s Note, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of the Holder’s Note shall constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Holder’s Note.
c. Method of Conversion.
(i) Mechanics of Conversion. Subject to Section 5(a), the Holder’s Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part, by (i) submitting to the Company a conversion notice (by facsimile or other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date prior to 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time) and (ii) subject to Section 5(d)(ii), surrendering the Holder’s Note at the principal office of the Company.
(ii) Surrender of Note Upon Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of the Holder’s Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender the Holder’s Note to the Company unless the entire unpaid principal amount of the Holder’s Note is so converted. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the principal amount so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of the Holder’s Note upon each such conversion. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, such records of the Company shall be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any portion of the Holder’s Note is converted as aforesaid, the Holder may not transfer the Holder’s Note unless the Holder first physically surrenders the Holder’s Note to the Company, whereupon the Company will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Note of like tenor, registered as the Holder (upon payment by the Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may request, representing in the aggregate the remaining unpaid principal amount of the Holder’s Note. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of the Holder’s Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of the Holder’s Note, the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of the Holder’s Note represented by the Holder’s Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
(iii) Delivery of Common Stock Upon Conversion. Upon receipt by the Company from the Holder of a facsimile transmission (or other reasonable means of communication) of a conversion notice meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in this Section 5(d), the Company shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion within three (3) Business Days (such third Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the “Deadline”) in accordance with the terms hereof and the Securities Purchase Agreement.

(iv) Obligation of Company to Deliver Common Stock. Upon delivery by the Holder to the Company of a Conversion notice, the Holder shall be deemed to be the Holder of record of the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on that portion of the Holder’s Note being converted shall be reduced to reflect such conversion, and, unless the Company defaults on its obligations under this Section 5, all rights with respect to the portion of the Holder’s Note being so converted shall forthwith terminate except the right to receive the Common Stock or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such conversion. If the Holder shall have given a conversion notice as provided herein, the Company’s obligation to issue and deliver the certificates for Common Stock shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the absence of any action by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of any other obligation of the Company to the Holder of record, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder of any obligation to the Company, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with such conversion.

For purposes of this Note, "Closing Sale Price” means, for any security as of any date, the last closing bid price and last trade price, respectively, for such security on the OTCQX US Exchange, as reported by Bloomberg, or, if the OTCQX US Exchange begins to operate on an extended hours basis and does not designate the closing bid price or the closing trade price, as the case may be, then the last bid price or the last trade price, respectively, of such security prior to 4:00:00 p.m., New York time, as reported by Bloomberg, or, if the OTCQX US Exchange is not the principal securities exchange or trading market for such security, the last closing bid price or last trade price, respectively, of such security on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such security is listed or traded as reported by Bloomberg, or if the foregoing do not apply, the last closing bid price or last trade price, respectively, of such security in the over-the-counter market on the electronic bulletin board for such security as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no closing bid price or last trade price, respectively, is reported for such security by Bloomberg, the average of the bid prices, or the ask prices, respectively, of any market makers for such security as reported in the “pink sheets” by OTC Markets Group, Inc. (formerly Pink Sheets LLC). If the Closing Sale Price cannot be calculated for a security on a particular date on any of the foregoing bases, the the Closing Sale Price, as the case may be, of such security on such date shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by the Company and the Holder. If the Company and the Holder are unable to agree upon the fair market value of such security, then such dispute shall be resolved pursuant to Section 19. All such determinations to be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination or other similar transaction during the applicable calculation period.

In the event of a dispute as to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder in connection with a conversion of this Note, the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock not in dispute and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 19.

(i) Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock.

If the Company at any time combines (by any reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) the shares of Common Stock acquirable hereunder into a smaller number of shares, then, after the date of record for effecting such combination, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased.
(ii) Reclassification, Exchange, and Substitution.

(iii) Notice of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price as a result of the events described in this Section 5(d), the Company, at its expense, shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment and prepare and furnish to the Holder of this Note a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.

In the case of a dispute as to the arithmetic calculation of the Conversion Price or Conversion Amount, the Company shall submit the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations via facsimile within one (1) Business Day of receipt, or deemed receipt, of the Conversion Notice or other event giving rise to such dispute, as the case may be, to the Holder. If the Holder and the Company are unable to agree upon such determination or calculation within one (1) Business Day of such disputed determination or arithmetic calculation being submitted to the Holder, then the Company shall, within one Business Day submit via facsimile the disputed arithmetic calculation of the Conversion Price or Conversion Amount to the Company’s independent, outside accountant. The Company shall cause the accountant to perform the determinations or calculations and notify the Company and the Holder of the results no later than five (5) Business Days from the time it receives the disputed determinations or calculations. Such accountant’s determination or calculation shall be binding upon all parties absent demonstrable error. The party whose calculation is furthest from the accountant’s determination or calculation, shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of such accountant.

(b) Payments. Except as otherwise provided in this Note, whenever any payment of cash is to be made by the Company to any Person pursuant to this Note, such payment shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America by a check drawn on the account of the Company and sent via overnight courier service to such Person at such address as previously provided to the Company in writing; provided that the Holder may elect to receive a payment of cash via wire transfer of immediately available funds by providing the Company with prior written notice setting out such request and the Holder’s wire transfer instructions. Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Note is due on any day which is not a Business Day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day.
21. Cancellation. After all Principal and other amounts at any time owed on this Note have been paid in full, this Note shall automatically be deemed canceled, shall be surrendered to the Company for cancellation and shall not be reissued.

All amounts denominated in other currencies shall be converted in the US dollar equivalent amount in accordance with the Exchange Rate on the date of calculation. “Exchange Rate” means, in relation to any amount of currency to be converted into US dollars pursuant to this Note, the US dollar exchange rate as published in the Wall Street Journal on the relevant date of calculation (it being understood and agreed that where an amount is calculated with reference to, or over, a period of time, the date of calculation shall be the final date of such period of time).
24. Severability. If any provision of this Note is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Note so long as this Note as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).
