any
time or from time to time makes, or fixes a
record date for the determination of
holders of Series C Preferred Stock or Common Stock entitled to receive, any
distribution, provision shall be made so that the Lender
shall receive upon
conversion of the Note under Section 1, in addition to the
number of shares of
Series C Preferred Stock receivable thereupon, the amount of securities or
assets of the Company which the Lender would have received
