1. Loan Agreement; Payments .
This Note is issued pursuant to, is secured by, and is subject to
the terms and conditions of, that certain Loan and Security
Agreement among the Company, Payee and certain other lenders of
even date (the “Loan Agreement”). (Capitalized terms
used herein, which are not defined, shall have the meanings set
forth in the Loan Agreement.) This Note may be prepaid only in
accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement. Any payment on the
Notes shall be made only ratably on all outstanding Notes issued
pursuant to the Loan Agreement. Payments on this Note shall be
applied first to accrued, unpaid interest and thereafter to reduce
the outstanding principal amount.
2. Interest . This Note shall
bear interest on the unpaid principal balance hereof from time to
time outstanding at the rate set forth in the Loan Agreement.
Accrued interest shall be payable on the Maturity Date, and any
accrued interest not paid when due shall thereafter bear interest
at the same rate as the principal hereunder.
3. Conversion .
(a) Right to Convert . The
entire principal amount of this Note and all accrued interest
hereon (the “Conversion Amount”), or any portion
hereof, shall be convertible, at the option of the Holder, at any
time after the date hereof at the office of the Company or any
transfer agent for its Preferred Stock, into such number of fully
paid and nonassessable shares of Series A Stock as is determined by
dividing the Conversion Amount by the Conversion Price. The
Conversion Price shall be $0.20 (Twenty Cents).
(b) Automatic Conversion .
The Conversion Amount shall automatically be converted into shares
of Series A Stock in accordance with Section 3(a) on the date
that the Company’s Common Stock is Publicly
Traded.
(c) Mechanics of Conversion .
No fractional shares of Series A Stock shall be issued upon
conversion of this Note. In lieu of any fractional share to which
the Holder would otherwise be entitled, the Company shall pay cash
equal to such fraction multiplied by the then effective Conversion
Price. Before any Holder shall be entitled to convert the Note into
shares of Series A Stock pursuant to Section 3(a), such holder
shall surrender the Note, at the office of the Company or of any
transfer agent for such Preferred Stock, and shall give written
notice by mail, postage prepaid, to the Company at its principal
corporate office, of the election to convert the same and the
amount of principal and/or interest being converted, and such
conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to
the close of business on the date of such surrender of the Note. In
the event of an automatic conversion pursuant to Section 3(b),
this Note shall be converted automatically without any further
action by the Holder and whether or not the Note is surrendered to
the Company or the transfer agent for the Preferred Stock, but the
Company shall not be obligated to issue certificates evidencing the
shares of Series A Stock issuable upon such automatic conversion
unless the Note is either delivered to the Company or the transfer
agent for such Preferred Stock as provided above, or the Holder
notifies the Company or the transfer agent for such Preferred Stock
that the Note has been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an
agreement satisfactory to the Company to indemnify the Company from
any loss incurred by it in connection with such Note. The Company
shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver to such
address as the Holder may direct, a certificate or certificates for
the number of shares of Series A Stock to which such Holder shall
be entitled and, if applicable, a new Note in the principal amount
which has not been converted pursuant to
Section 3(a).
(d) Adjustments for
Reorganizations, Mergers, Reclassifications or Similar Events .
If the Preferred Stock shall be changed into the same or a
different number of shares of any other class or classes of stock
or other securities or property, whether by capital reorganization,
merger, reclassification or otherwise, then the Note shall
thereafter be convertible into the number of shares of stock or
other securities or property to which a holder of the number of
shares of Preferred Stock of the Company deliverable upon
conversion of the Note shall have been entitled upon such
reorganization, merger, reclassification or other event.
(e) No Impairment . The
Company will not, by amendment of its Articles of Incorporation or
through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation,
merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other
voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or
performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed
hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith
assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Note and
in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate
in order to protect the conversion rights of the Holders set forth
herein and in the Preferred Stock against impairment.
4. Reservation of Securities.

such securities as the Holder is entitled to receive upon
conversion or prepayment of this Note or the Preferred Stock. Prior
to the issuance of any equity securities and whenever otherwise
required, the Company shall amend its Articles of Incorporation to
ensure that there is a sufficient quantity of such equity
securities (and Common Stock into which such equity securities may
be convertible) into which the Notes are entitled to be converted
hereunder.

occurrence of any Event of Default (as defined in the Loan
Agreement), the entire unpaid principal balance of this Note and
all accrued and unpaid interest

shall become or may be declared to be
immediately due and payable, as provided in the Loan
Agreement.

payable on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, the due date
thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and
interest shall be payable thereon during such extension. The
Company agrees to pay all costs and expenses (including without
limitation reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred by Holder or
Agent in connection with the enforcement of this Note. The Company
hereby waives presentment, demand for payment, notice of dishonor,
notice of nonpayment, protest, notice of protest, and any and all
