ARTICLE III

CONVERSION RIGHTS AND FIXED CONVERSION PRICE

 

3.1 Optional Conversion . Subject to the terms of this Article III, the Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation, at any time until the Maturity Date, or during an Event of Default (as defined in Article IV), and, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3.2 hereof, to convert all or any portion of the outstanding Principal Amount and/or accrued interest and fees due and payable into fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Common Stock at the Fixed Conversion Price. For purposes hereof, subject to Section 3.6 hereof, the initial “ Fixed Conversion Price ” shall be $6.80. The shares of Common Stock to be issued upon such conversion are herein referred to as the “ Conversion Shares.

 

3.2 Conversion Limitation . Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be entitled to convert pursuant to the terms of this Note an amount that would be convertible into that number of Conversion Shares which would exceed the difference between (i) 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder. The Conversion Shares limitation described in this Section 3.2 shall automatically become null and void without any notice to any Company upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, or upon 75 days prior notice to the Parent. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 3.2 are irrevocable and may not be waived by the Holder or any Company.

 

3.3 Mechanics of Holder’s Conversion . In the event that the Holder elects to convert this Note into Common Stock, the Holder shall give notice of such election by delivering an executed and completed notice of conversion in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto (appropriately completed) (“ Notice of Conversion ”) to the Parent and such Notice of Conversion shall provide a breakdown in reasonable detail of the Principal Amount, accrued interest and fees that are being converted. On each Conversion Date (as hereinafter defined) and in accordance with its Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall make the appropriate reduction to the Principal Amount, accrued interest and fees as entered in its records and shall provide written notice thereof to the Parent within two (2) Business Days after the Conversion Date. Each date on which a Notice of Conversion is delivered or telecopied to the Parent in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be deemed a Conversion Date (the “ Conversion Date ”). Pursuant to the terms of the Notice of Conversion, the Parent will issue instructions to the transfer agent accompanied by an opinion of counsel within one (1) Business Day of the date of the delivery to the Parent of the Notice of Conversion and shall cause the transfer agent to transmit the certificates representing the Conversion Shares to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s designated broker with the Depository Trust Corporation (“ DTC ”) through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“ DWAC ”) system within three (3) Business Days after receipt by the Parent of the Notice of Conversion (the “ Delivery Date ”). In the case of the exercise of the conversion rights set forth herein the conversion privilege shall be deemed to have been exercised and the Conversion Shares issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have been issued upon the date of receipt by the Parent of the Notice of Conversion. The Holder shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of the Conversion Shares, unless the Holder provides the Parent written instructions to the contrary.
