BMP SUNSTONE CORPORATION
12.5% SUBORDINATED CONVERTIBLE NOTE
DUE JULY 1, 2011
This Security is
one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein
called the “ Securities ”), issued and to be
issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of March
___, 2009 (herein called the “ Indenture ”),
between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Trustee
(herein called the “ Trustee ”, which term
includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which
Indenture, all indentures supplemental thereto and the
Officer’s Certificate of the Company dated March ___, 2009,
reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights,
limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the
Company, the Trustee, the holders of Senior Indebtedness and the
Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the
Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This
Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof,
limited in aggregate principal amount to $7,000,000.
Subject to and
upon compliance with the provisions of Article XIV of the
Indenture and subject to the following paragraph, the Holder of
this Security is entitled, at his option, at any time after the
close of business on May 15, 2009, to convert this Security
(or any portion of the principal amount hereof which is $1,000 or
an integral multiple thereof) (the “ Conversion Amount
”), at the principal amount hereof, or of such portion, into
fully paid and non-assessable shares (calculated as to each
conversion to the nearest 1/100 of a share) of Common Stock of the
Company (the “ Common Shares ”) at a conversion
price per share of Common Stock (the “ Conversion
Price ”) equal to $3.00 per each share of Common Stock
(or at the current adjusted conversion price if an adjustment has
been made as provided in the Indenture); provided that, if the
Company issues Common Shares in one or more offerings to investors
(other than any offerings following the closing of a Qualified
Offering (as defined below)) on or prior to December 31, 2009 (any
such issuance, an “ Offering ”), the Conversion
Price shall equal the lesser of (i) $3.00, (ii) 115% of the
lowest price per Common Share (after deducting the value, as
determined by the Company, of any warrants or other securities
issued in such Offering) for which the Company sells Common Shares
in any Offering or (iii) 115% of the VWAP (as defined below)
for the period from and including October 15, 2009 through and
including December 15, 2009, provided that, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary, the Conversion Price shall not be less
than $2.00. “ VWAP ” means the volume weighted
average price (the aggregate sales price of all trades of Common
Shares during each Trading Day divided by the total number of
shares of Common Shares traded during such Trading Day) of the
Common Shares during any Trading Day as reported by Bloomberg, L.P.
using the AQR function. “ Trading Day ” means
any day other than a Saturday or a Sunday on which the Principal
Market is open for trading in equity securities. “
Principal Market ” means the NASDAQ Capital Market,
the NASDAQ Global Select Market, the NASDAQ Global Market, the
American Stock Exchange or the New York Stock Exchange, whichever
is at the time the principal trading exchange or market for the
Common Shares.
So long as the
Common Shares are listed for trading on The Nasdaq Stock Market,
Inc. (“ Nasdaq ”) or an exchange or quotation
system with a rule substantially similar to Rule 4350(i)
then,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein if, at
any time (the “ Triggering Event ”), the
aggregate number of Common Shares then issued upon conversion of
the Securities (including any shares of capital stock or rights to
acquire shares of capital stock issued by the Company which are
aggregated or integrated with the Common Shares issued or issuable
upon conversion of the Securities for purposes of such rule) equals
19.99% of the Outstanding Common Amount (as hereinafter defined),
the Securities (1) shall, from that time forward, cease to be
convertible into Common Shares in accordance with the terms of the
prior paragraph above, unless the Company (A) has obtained
approval (“ Shareholder Approval ”) of the
issuance of the Common Shares upon conversion of the Securities by
a majority of the total votes cast on such proposal, in person or
by proxy, by the holders of the then outstanding Common Shares (not
including (x) any Common Shares held by present or former
holders of Securities that were issued upon conversion o
