Amount shall constitute full payment for the shares of Common Stock so subscribed for and to be issued upon such conversion. The Company’s liability for any principal which is not Converted Principal and any accrued and unpaid interest which is not Converted Interest, shall continue in accordance with the terms hereof.

The holder of this Promissory Note shall be deemed to have become on said date the holder of record of the shares of Common Stock issuable to such holder upon such conversion; provided, however , that any such surrender on any date when the securities transfer books of the Company shall be closed shall not be deemed to constitute the holder of this Promissory Note as the record holder thereof for any purpose until the close of business on the next succeeding day on which such securities transfer books shall be open.

          (iv) Upon the election of the Company to convert this Promissory Note at the occurrence of the closing of the transaction or series of related transactions specified in Section 2(b)(ii), all then outstanding principal and all then accrued and unpaid interest on this Promissory Note shall be converted without any further action by the holder and whether or not this Promissory Note is surrendered to the Company or its transfer agent; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to issue to the holder certificates evidencing the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion unless this Promissory Note is delivered either to the Company or to the transfer agent of the Company. Conversion shall be deemed to have been effected on the date of the occurrence of the closing of the transactions or series of related transactions specified in Section 2(b)(ii). As soon as practicable after the surrender of this Promissory Note as specified in this Section 2(d), the Company shall issue and deliver to or upon the written order of the holder a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled and a check or cash in respect of any fraction of a share as provided in Section 2(e) hereof. No interest shall accrue on and after such conversion date. The holder shall be deemed to become on such conversion date the holder of record of the shares of Common Stock issuable to the holder upon such conversion.

          (v) Upon the occurrence of the closing of the public offering specified in Section 2(b)(iii), all then outstanding principal and all then accrued and unpaid interest on this Promissory Note shall be converted automatically without any further action by the holder and whether or not this Promissory Note is surrendered to the Company or its transfer agent; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to issue to the holder certificates evidencing the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion unless this Promissory Note is delivered either to the Company or to the transfer agent of the Company.

offering specified in Section 2(b)(iii). As soon as practicable after the surrender of this Promissory Note as specified in this Section 2(d), the Company shall issue and deliver to or upon the written order of the holder a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled and a check or cash in respect of any fraction of a share as provided in Section 2(e) hereof. No interest shall accrue on and after such conversion date. The holder shall be deemed to become on such conversion date the holder of record of the shares of Common Stock issuable to the holder upon such conversion.

          (e) The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of shares upon conversion of this Promissory Note (or portion thereof). If any fractional interest in a share shall be deliverable upon the conversion of this Promissory Note (or portion thereof), the Company shall purchase such fractional interest for an amount in cash equal to the Conversion Price times the amount of such fractional interest.

          (f) The Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment as follows:

               (i) If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the date hereof (the “ Original Issue Date ”) effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect immediately before such subdivision shall be proportionately decreased. Conversely, if the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately before such combination shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this Section 2(f)(i) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

               (ii) If at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date, the Common Stock is changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by recapitalization, reclassification or otherwise (other than through an Acquisition, Asset Transfer, subdivision or combination of shares, stock dividend, reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale of assets provided for elsewhere in this Section 2(f) ), in any such event the holder hereof shall have the right thereafter to convert such stock into the kind and amount of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such recapitalization, reclassification or other change by holders of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Common Stock could have been converted immediately prior to such recapitalization, reclassification or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein or with respect to such other securities or property by the terms thereof.

               (iii) If at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date, there is a capital reorganization of the Common Stock (other than a recapitalization or subdivision, combination, reclassification, exchange, or substitution of shares provided for elsewhere in this Section 2(f)) , as a part of such capital reorganization, provision shall be made so that the holder hereof shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon exercise hereof the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Company to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise immediately prior to such event would have been entitled as a result of such capital reorganization, subject to adjustment in respect of such stock or securities by the terms thereof. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made

Issued: January 6, 2006
Effective as of: August 19, 2005

in the application of the provisions of this Section 2(f) with respect to the rights of the holder hereof after the capital reorganization to the end that the provisions of this Section 2(f) (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon exercise) shall be applicable after that event and be as nearly equivalent as practicable.

               (iv) Anything in this Section 2 to the contrary notwithstanding, all calculations under this Section 2(f) shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest whole share (as provided in Section 2(e) ), as the case may be. Any provision of this Section 2(f) to the contrary notwithstanding, no adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be made if the amount of such adjustment would be less than one percent, but any such amount shall be carried forward and an adjustment with respect thereto shall be made at the time of and together with any subsequent adjustment which, together with such amount and any other amount or amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate one percent or more.

               (v) In the event the Company shall propose to take any action of the types described in Section 2(f), the Company shall give notice to the holder of this Promissory Note, which notice shall specify the record date, if any, with respect to any such action and the date on which such action is to take place. Such notice shall also set forth such facts with respect thereto as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect of such action (to the extent such effect may be known at the date of such notice) on the Conversion Price and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable or purchasable upon the occurrence of such action or deliverable upon conversion of this Promissory Note. In the case of any action that would require the fixing of a record date, such notice shall be given at least ten days prior to the date so fixed, and in case of all other action, such notice shall be given at least ten days prior to the taking of such proposed action.

               (vi) All shares of Common Stock issued in connection with the conversion provisions set forth herein shall be, upon issuance by the Company, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens or charges with respect thereto created or imposed by the Company.

               (vii) The Company shall reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock such number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect conversion of this Promissory Note.

          (g) Whenever the Conversion Price shall be adjusted as required by the provisions of Section 2(f) hereof, the Company shall forthwith mail a certificate setting forth the adjusted Conversion Price and showing in reasonable detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based to the holder of this Promissory Note at such holder’s address as it appears herein or at the last address of which the holder has given the Company written notice, but failure to receive such notice, or any defects therein, or in the mailing thereof, shall not affect such adjustment in Conversion Price. The Company shall, upon the written request at any time of the holder of this Promissory Note, furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a like certificate setting forth (a) such adjustments and readjustments, (b) the Conversion Price at that time in effect, and (c) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other property which at the time would be received upon the conversion of this Promissory Note.

The foregoing notwithstanding, it is acknowledged and agreed to by the Company that the holder hereof may exercise its conversion rights pursuant to Section 2 hereof at any time prior to the second Business Day immediately preceding the proposed date of such prepayment, whether before or after receipt of such prepayment notice from the Company.

Any such notice of election to convert shall constitute a contract between the holder of this Promissory Note and the Company, whereby such holder shall be deemed to subscribe for the number of shares of Common Stock which it shall be entitled to receive upon such conversion, and in payment and satisfaction of such subscription, to surrender this Promissory Note and to release the Company from all liability hereon, including interest accruing, after the date of the receipt of the Conversion Request, and whereby the Company shall be deemed to agree that the surrender of such Promissory Note and the extinguishment of liability hereon shall constitute full payment for the shares of Common Stock so subscribed for and to be issued upon such conversion.

          (ii) If the Conversion Amount is less than the sum of all outstanding principal on this Promissory Note and all accrued and unpaid interest on this Promissory Note on the date the Conversion Request is made, then upon surrender of this Promissory Note for conversion, (A) the principal amount of this Promissory Note as shown on Schedule 1 hereto shall be reduced by the amount of Converted Principal and (B) the unpaid interest then accrued shall be reduced by the amount of Converted Interest. Any such notice of election to convert shall constitute a contract between the holder of this Promissory Note and the Company, whereby such holder shall be deemed to subscribe for the number of shares of Common Stock which it shall be entitled to receive upon such conversion, and in payment and satisfaction of such subscription, to release the Company from all liability with respect to (X) the Converted Principal, (Y) interest accruing on the Converted Principal after the date of the receipt of the Conversion Request and (Z) Converted Interest, from the and including the date on which the Conversion Request is received. The Company shall be deemed to agree that the Conversion Amount shall constitute full payment for the shares of Common Stock so subscribed for and to be issued upon such conversion. The Company’s liability for any principal which is not Converted Principal and any accrued and unpaid interest which is not Converted Interest, shall continue in accordance with the terms hereof.

          (iii) Subject to the further provisions of this Section 2, as soon as practicable after the receipt of such Conversion Request, and this Promissory Note, if applicable, the Company shall issue and shall deliver at said office to such holder (A) a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of this Promissory Note in accordance with the provisions hereof and (B) a check or cash in respect of any fraction of a share as provided in Section 2(e).

immediately prior to the close of business on the date on which the Company shall have received such Conversion Request and this Promissory Note. Any and all interest on the Converted Principal shall cease to accrue pursuant to this Promissory Note from the date of receipt of the Conversion Request. The holder of this Promissory Note shall be deemed to have become on said date the holder of record of the shares of Common Stock issuable to such holder upon such conversion; provided, however , that any such surrender on any date when the securities transfer books of the Company shall be closed shall not be deemed to constitute the holder of this Promissory Note as the record holder thereof for any purpose until the close of business on the next succeeding day on which such securities transfer books shall be open.

          (iv) Upon the election of the Company to convert this Promissory Note at the occurrence of the closing of the transaction or series of related transactions specified in Section 2(b)(ii), all then outstanding principal and all then accrued and unpaid interest on this Promissory Note shall be converted without any further action by the holder and whether or not this Promissory Note is surrendered to the Company or its transfer agent; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to issue to the holder certificates evidencing the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion unless this Promissory Note is delivered either to the Company or to the transfer agent of the Company. Conversion shall be deemed to have been effected on the date of the occurrence of the closing of the transactions or series of related transactions specified in Section 2(b)(ii). As soon as practicable after the surrender of this Promissory Note as specified in this Section 2(d), the Company shall issue and deliver to or upon the written order of the holder a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled and a check or cash in respect of any fraction of a share as provided in Section 2(e) hereof. No interest shall accrue on and after such conversion date. The holder shall be deemed to become on such conversion date the holder of record of the shares of Common Stock issuable to the holder upon such conversion.

          (v) Upon the occurrence of the closing of the public offering specified in Section 2(b)(iii), all then outstanding principal and all then accrued and unpaid interest on this Promissory Note shall be converted automatically without any further action by the holder and whether or not this Promissory Note is surrendered to the Company or its transfer agent; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to issue to the holder certificates evidencing the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion unless this Promissory Note is delivered either to the Company or to the transfer agent of the Company. Conversion shall be deemed to have been effected on the date of the occurrence of the closing of the public offering specified in Section 2(b)(iii). As soon as practicable after the surrender of this Promissory Note as specified in this Section 2(d), the Company shall issue and deliver to or upon the written order of the holder a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled and a check or cash in respect of any fraction of a share as provided in Section 2(e) hereof. No interest shall accrue on and after such conversion date. The holder shall be deemed to become on such conversion date the holder of record of the shares of Common Stock issuable to the holder upon such conversion.

          (e) The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of shares upon conversion of this Promissory Note (or portion thereof). If any fractional interest in a share shall be deliverable upon the conversion of this Promissory Note (or portion thereof), the Company

Page 14


 

Issued: January 6, 2006
Effective as of: August 19, 2005

shall purchase such fractional interest for an amount in cash equal to the Conversion Price times the amount of such fractional interest.

          (f) The Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment as follows:

               (i) If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the date hereof (the “ Original Issue Date ”) effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect immediately before such subdivision shall be proportionately decreased. Conversely, if the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately before such combination shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this Section 2(f)(i) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

               (ii) If at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date, the Common Stock is changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by recapitalization, reclassification or otherwise (other than through an Acquisition, Asset Transfer, subdivision or combination of shares, stock dividend, reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale of assets provided for elsewhere in this Section 2(f) ), in any such event the holder hereof shall have the right thereafter to convert such stock into the kind and amount of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such recapitalization, reclassification or other change by holders of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Common Stock could have been converted immediately prior to such recapitalization, reclassification or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein or with respect to such other securities or property by the terms thereof.

               (iii) If at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date, there is a capital reorganization of the Common Stock (other than a recapitalization or subdivision, combination, reclassification, exchange, or substitution of shares provided for elsewhere in this Section 2(f)) , as a part of such capital reorganization, provision shall be made so that the holder hereof shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon exercise hereof the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Company to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise immediately prior to such event would have been entitled as a result of such capital reorganization, subject to adjustment in respect of such stock or securities by the terms thereof. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 2(f) with respect to the rights of the holder hereof after the capital reorganization to the end that the provisions of this Section 2(f) (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon exercise) shall be applicable after that event and be as nearly equivalent as practicable.

               (iv) Anything in this Section 2 to the contrary notwithstanding, all calculations under this Section 2(f) shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest whole share (as provided in Section 2(e) ), as the case may be. Any provision of this Section 2(f) to the contrary notwithstanding, no adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be made if the amount of such adjustment would be less than one percent, but any such amount shall be carried forward and an adjustment with respect thereto shall be made at the time of and together with any

Page 15


 

Issued: January 6, 2006
Effective as of: August 19, 2005

subsequent adjustment which, together with such amount and any other amount or amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate one percent or more.

               (v) In the event the Company shall propose to take any action of the types described in Section 2(f), the Company shall give notice to the holder of this Promissory Note, which notice shall specify the record date, if any, with respect to any such action and the date on which such action is to take place. Such notice shall also set forth such facts with respect thereto as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect of such action (to the extent such effect may be known at the date of such notice) on the Conversion Price and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable or purchasable upon the occurrence of such action or deliverable upon conversion of this Promissory Note. In the case of any action that would require the fixing of a record date, such notice shall be given at least ten days prior to the date so fixed, and in case of all other action, such notice shall be given at least ten days prior to the taking of such proposed action.

               (vi) All shares of Common Stock issued in connection with the conversion provisions set forth herein shall be, upon issuance by the Company, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens or charges with respect thereto created or imposed by the Company.

               (vii) The Company shall reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock such number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect conversion of this Promissory Note.

          (g) Whenever the Conversion Price shall be adjusted as required by the provisions of Section 2(f) hereof, the Company shall forthwith mail a certificate setting forth the adjusted Conversion Price and showing in reasonable detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based to the holder of this Promissory Note at such holder’s address as it appears herein or at the last address of which the holder has given the Company written notice, but failure to receive such notice, or any defects therein, or in the mailing thereof, shall not affect such adjustment in Conversion Price. The Company shall, upon the written request at any time of the holder of this Promissory Note, furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a like certificate setting forth (a) such adjustments and readjustments, (b) the Conversion Price at that time in effect, and (c) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other property which at the time would be received upon the conversion of this Promissory Note.

     8.  Prepayment . The Company may prepay, upon 10 Business Days’ prior written notice, its obligations pursuant to this Promissory Note, in whole or in part, at any time by tendering to the holder hereof the outstanding principal balance to be prepaid, together with accrued but unpaid interest on such principal being prepaid. The foregoing notwithstanding, it is acknowledged and agreed to by the Company that the holder hereof may exercise its conversion rights pursuant to Section 2 hereof at any time prior to the second Business Day immediately preceding the proposed date of such prepayment, whether before or after receipt of such prepayment notice from the Company.

               (i) If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the date hereof (the “ Original Issue Date ”) effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect immediately before such subdivision shall be proportionately decreased. Conversely, if the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately before such combination shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this Section 2(f)(i) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

               (ii) If at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date, the Common Stock is changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by recapitalization, reclassification or otherwise (other than through an Acquisition, Asset Transfer, subdivision or combination of shares, stock dividend, reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale of assets provided for elsewhere in this Section 2(f) ), in any such event the holder hereof shall have the right thereafter to convert such stock into the kind and amount of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such recapitalization, reclassification or other change by holders of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Common Stock could have been converted immediately prior to such recapitalization, reclassification or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein or with respect to such other securities or property by the terms thereof.

               (iii) If at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date, there is a capital reorganization of the Common Stock (other than a recapitalization or subdivision, combination, reclassification, exchange, or substitution of shares provided for elsewhere in this Section 2(f)) , as a part of such capital reorganization, provision shall be made so that the holder hereof shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon exercise hereof the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Company to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise immediately prior to such event would have been entitled as a result of such capital reorganization, subject to adjustment in respect of such stock or securities by the terms thereof. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 2(f) with respect to the rights of the holder hereof after the capital reorganization to the end that the provisions of this Section 2(f) (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon exercise) shall be applicable after that event and be as nearly equivalent as practicable.

               (iv) Anything in this Section 2 to the contrary notwithstanding, all calculations under this Section 2(f) shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest whole share (as provided in Section 2(e) ), as the case may be. Any provision of this Section 2(f) to the

               (v) In the event the Company shall propose to take any action of the types described in Section 2(f), the Company shall give notice to the holder of this Promissory Note, which notice shall specify the record date, if any, with respect to any such action and the date on which such action is to take place. Such notice shall also set forth such facts with respect thereto as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect of such action (to the extent such effect may be known at the date of such notice) on the Conversion Price and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable or purchasable upon the occurrence of such action or deliverable upon conversion of this Promissory Note. In the case of any action that would require the fixing of a record date, such notice shall be given at least ten days prior to the date so fixed, and in case of all other action, such notice shall be given at least ten days prior to the taking of such proposed action.
