SENIOR SECURED
CONVERTIBLE TERM NOTE—TRANCHE A
This
Senior Secured Convertible Term Note—Tranche A (this “
Note ”) is issued in connection with the
transactions described in that certain Securities Purchase
Agreement by and among The X-Change Corporation, a Nevada
corporation (the “ Corporation ”), and
(the “ Holder ”), among others, dated
December 4, 2007 (the “ Purchase Agreement
”). This Note is one of the notes referred to as the
“Tranche A Notes” in the Purchase Agreement. All
capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the
meaning ascribed to each such term in the Purchase Agreement.
The
authorization, sale, issuance and delivery of the Note have been
approved by all requisite corporate action of the Corporation. The
sale of the Note and the subsequent conversion of the Note into
shares of Common Stock are not and will not be subject to any
preemptive rights or rights of first refusal that have not been
properly waived or complied with at or prior to Closing of the
Purchase Agreement.
The
following is a statement of the rights of the Holder of this Note
and the conditions to which this Note is subject, and to which the
Holder hereof, by the acceptance of this Note, agrees:
| |
1. |
|
Principal and Interest. |
a. For value received, the Corporation hereby promises to pay
to the order of the Holder in lawful money of the United States at
the address of the Holder as set forth in Section 10
below, the amount set out above as the Principal (as reduced
pursuant to the terms hereof pursuant to redemption, conversion or
otherwise, the “ Principal ”), together
with interest on the remaining unpaid Principal balance, computed
from the date hereof until maturity at the rate set out above as
the Interest Rate (as adjusted pursuant to the terms hereof, the
“ Interest Rate ”); provided ,
however , that in the event such interest rate should ever
exceed the maximum interest rate permissible under applicable Texas
or federal Law, then the Interest Rate on this Note shall be
adjusted to the maximum interest rate then permitted by such Laws.
Interest shall accrue on the unpaid Principal of this Note
(including, once capitalized as provided below, payments of
interest made by increasing the outstanding Principal of this Note)
at the Interest Rate quarterly in arrears on March 31,
June 30, September 30 and December 31 in each year
(each such date, an “Interest Payment Date”),
commencing on the date set out above as the Date of Issuance (the
“ Date of Issuance ”). Interest payable
hereunder shall accrue daily and be computed based on a 360-day
year for the number of days elapsed during the relevant interest
period. Except as otherwise provided in Section 3
below, all accrued and unpaid interest as of any Interest Payment
Date that is not paid in cash to the Purchasers on such Interest
Payment Date shall automatically (and without further action by the
Corporation or the Purchasers) be added to the outstanding
principal amount of this Note, and thereafter all calculations of
interest payable under this Note shall include such increased
amount. The Corporation’s election to accrue interest and
allow such to be added to the outstanding principal amount of this
Note shall not constitute an Event of Default as set forth on
Section 4(a)(i). From and after the occurrence of an Event of
Default, the Interest Rate shall be increased to 10.00%. In the
event that such Event of Default is subsequently cured, the
adjustment referred to in the preceding sentence shall cease to be
effective as of the date of such cure; provided that the interest
as calculated at such increased rate during the continuance of such
Event of Default shall continue to apply to the extent relating to
the days after the occurrence of such Event of Default through and
including the date of cure of such Event of Default. Principal and
any accrued but unpaid interest on this Note shall be due and
payable on the date set out above as the Maturity Date or such
earlier date as this Note is required to be repaid as provided
hereunder (the “ Maturity Date ”), unless
the Note is earlier converted into Common Stock by the Purchaser or
the Corporation pursuant to the terms hereof.
b. Upon payment in full of all Principal and interest payable
hereunder, this Note shall be surrendered to the Corporation for
cancellation.
2. Security; Seniority; Indebtedness; Liens;
Payments.
a.
Security . This Note shall be secured by all of the assets
of the Corporation’s wholly-owned subsidiary, AirGATE
Technologies, Inc., a Texas corporation (“
AirGATE ”), whether such assets are now or
hereafter existing, in accordance with the terms of that certain
Security Agreement dated as of even date herewith among the
Corporation, AirGATE and the holders of the Notes (as defined in
the Purchase Agreement).
b.
Seniority . The obligations, rights and preferences under
this Note, including payments of Principal and interest and other
payment under this Note, (i) shall be pari passu with
(x) the other Tranche A Notes and Tranche B Notes (as defined
in the Purchase Agreement) and (y) the obligations of the
Corporation to Melissa 364 CR, Ltd. under the terms of that certain
Promissory Note, dated August 15, 2006, between the
Corporation and Melissa 364 CR, Ltd. (the “ Melissa
Note ”) and (ii) shall rank senior to all other
Indebtedness incurred by the Corporation or any of its
Subsidiaries, including AirGATE.
c.
Incurrence of Indebtedness . So long as this Note is
outstanding, the Corporation shall not, and the Corporation shall
not permit any Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, issue, incur,
guarantee, assume or suffer to exist any Indebtedness or
Disqualified Stock other than the Melissa Note and Permitted
Subordinated Indebtedness.
d.
Existence of Liens . The Corporation shall not, and the
Corporation shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly
or indirectly, allow or suffer to exist any mortgage, lien, pledge,
charge, security interest or other encumbrance upon or in any
property or assets (including accounts and contract rights) owned
by the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries other than
(i) the existing pledge of the common stock of AirGATE to
secure the Melissa Note and (ii) Permitted Liens (as defined in the
Purchase Agreement).
e.
Restricted Payments . The Corporation shall not, and the
Corporation shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly
or indirectly, pay any dividend or distribution in respect of
capital stock or redeem, defease, repurchase, repay or otherwise
acquire (whether by way of open market purchases, tender offers,
private transactions or otherwise) any capital stock or Permitted
Subordinated Indebtedness (including the establishment of any
sinking fund therefor).
a.
Conversion Procedure .
i. The Holder
may, at any time after the Date of Issuance and at the option of
the Holder, convert all or any portion of the Principal and all
accrued interest on this Note into fully paid and nonassessable
shares of Common Stock in accordance with this Section 3 and
at a price per share of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Price
then in effect. The Corporation covenants that it will reserve and
keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock for
the sole purpose of issuance upon conversion of this Note and
payment of interest on this Note, each as provided herein.
ii. Each
conversion of this Note shall be deemed to have been effected as of
the close of business on the date on which this Note, together with
proper Notice of Conversion in the form of Exhibit A
attached hereto, has been delivered to the Corporation. At the time
such conversion has been effected, the person or persons in whose
name or names any certificate or certificates for shares of Common
Stock are to be issued upon such conversion shall be deemed to have
become the holder or holders of record of the shares of Common
Stock represented by such certificate or certificates.
iii. As soon as
possible after a conversion has been effected (but in any event
within five (5) Business Days), the Corporation shall deliver
to the converting Holder:
A. a certificate
or certificates representing the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable by reason of such conversion in such name or names and
such denomination or denominations as the converting Holder has
specified;
B. if
applicable, a new note in the face amount of principal and interest
representing that portion of the Note and accrued but unpaid
interest thereon not converted; and
C. cash in lieu
of any fractional share as provided for herein.
iv. The issuance
of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the
Note shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issuance
tax in respect of such issuance (including documentary, stamp or
similar tax) or other cost incurred by the Corporation in
connection with such conversion and the related issuance of shares
of Common Stock, other than any transfer taxes resulting from the
transfer of converted shares to a person or persons other than the
converting Holder. Upon conversion of the Note, the Corporation
shall take all such actions as are necessary in order to insure
that the Common Stock issuable with respect to such conversion
shall be validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable.
b.
Conversion Price .
i. The
Conversion Price shall be $0.20 per share of Common Stock, subject
to adjustment from time to time in accordance with this
Section 3 (the “ Conversion Price
”).
ii. If and
whenever, on or after the Date of Issuance, the Corporation issues
or sells, or is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of its
Common Stock for consideration per share less than the Conversion
Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issuance or
sale (an “ Additional Stock Issuance ”),
then immediately upon such Additional Stock Issuance, the
Conversion Price shall (except as otherwise provided in this
Section 3 ) be reduced to a price (calculated to the nearest
1/10th cent) equal to the product obtained by multiplying the
Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such Additional
Stock Issuance by a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to
the sum of (a) the total number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding (including any shares of Common Stock deemed to be
issued pursuant to Section 3(c)(i) or
Section 3(c)(ii) hereof) immediately prior to such
Additional Stock Issuance plus (b) the number of shares of
Common Stock that the aggregate consideration received by the
Corporation for such Additional Stock Issuance would purchase at
the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such Additional
Stock Issuance, and the denominator of which is equal to the sum of
(a) the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
(including any shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued pursuant
to Section 3(c)(i ) or Section 3(c)(ii)
hereof) immediately prior to such Additional Stock Issuance plus
(b) the number of shares of Common Stock issued in such
Additional Stock Issuance.
iii.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation shall not be
required to make any adjustment to the Conversion Price as a result
of an Additional Stock Issuance when such issuance is (a) in a
transaction described in Section 3(d) and for which an
adjustment has been made pursuant to Section 3(d) ;
(b) any conversion of the Note; (c) as a distribution on
the Note; (d) pursuant to any stock option plan or other
incentive plan of the Corporation; (e) upon conversion or
exercise of any Options or Convertible Securities outstanding as of
the date hereof; or (f) made pursuant to the exercise of any
of the Warrants.
c.
Effect on Conversion Price of Certain Events . For purposes
of determining the adjusted Conversion Price under this
Section 3 , the following shall be applicable:
i. If the
Corporation in any manner issues or grants any options, warrants,
or similar rights (“ Options ”) to
purchase or acquire Common Stock or other equity securities
convertible or exchangeable, with or without consideration, into or
for Common Stock (“ Convertible Securities
”), and the price per share for which Common Stock is
issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or
exchange of such Convertible Securities is less than the Conversion
Price in effect immediately prior to the time of the granting of
such Options, then the total maximum number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion
or exchange of the total maximum amount of such Convertible
Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options shall be
deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the
Corporation for such price per share. For purposes of this Section,
the “price per share for which Common Stock is
issuable” shall be determined by dividing (a) the total
amount, if any, received or receivable by the Corporation as
consideration for the granting of such Options, plus the minimum
aggregate amount of additional consideration payable to the
Corporation upon exercise of all such Options, plus, in the case of
such Options which relate to Convertible Securities, the minimum
aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to
the Corporation upon the issuance or sale of such Convertible
Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible
Securities, by (b) the total maximum number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon the
conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities issuable
upon the exercise of such Options. No further adjustment of the
Conversion Price shall be made when Convertible Securities are
actually issued upon the exercise of such Options or when Common
Stock is actually issued upon the exercise of such Options or the
conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.
ii. If the
Corporation in any manner issues or sells any Convertible
Securities and the price per share for which Common Stock is
issuable upon such conversion or exchange is less than the
Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such
issue or sale, then the maximum number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities
shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold
by the Corporation for such price per share. For the purposes of
this Section, the “price per share for which Common Stock is
issuable” shall be determined by dividing (a) the total
amount received or receivable by the Corporation as consideration
for the issue or sale of such Convertible Securities, plus the
minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any,
payable to the Corporation upon the conversion or exchange of such
Convertible Securities, by (b) the total maximum number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of
all such Convertible Securities. No further adjustment of the
Conversion Price shall be made when Common Stock is actually issued
upon the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, and
if any such issue or sale of such Convertible Securities is made
upon exercise of any Options for which adjustments of the
Conversion Price had been or are to be made pursuant to other
provisions of this Section 3 , no further adjustment of the
Conversion Price shall be made by reason of such issue or sale.
iii. If the
purchase price provided for in any Options or the additional
consideration, if any, payable upon the conversion or exchange of
any Convertible Securities or the rate at which any Convertible
Securities are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock
changes at any time, the Conversion Price in effect at the time of
such change shall be readjusted to the Conversion Price that would
have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible
Securities still outstanding provided for such changed purchase
price, additional consideration, or changed conversion rate, as the
case may be, at the time initially granted, issued, or sold.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no readjustment pursuant to this
Section 3(c)(iii) shall have the effect of increasing
the Conversion Price to an amount which exceeds the lower of
(i) the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the
original adjustment made as a result of the issuance of such Option
or Convertible Security, or (ii) the Conversion Price that
would have resulted from any Additional Stock Issuances (other than
deemed Additional Stock Issuances as a result of the issuance of
such Option or Convertible Security) between the original
adjustment date and such readjustment date.
iv. Upon the
expiration of any Option or the termination of any right to convert
or exchange any Convertible Security which resulted in an
adjustment to the Conversion Price, the Conversion Price then in
effect under this Note shall be adjusted to the Conversion Price
that would have been in effect at the time of such expiration or
termination had such Option or Convertible Security, to the extent
outstanding immediately prior to such expiration or termination,
never been issued.
v. If any Common
Stock, Option, or Convertible Security is issued or sold or deemed
to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration received
for such Common Stock, Option, or Convertible Security shall be
deemed to be the amount received by the Corporation for such Common
Stock, Option, or Convertible Security. In case any Common Stock,
Options, or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a
consideration other than cash, the amount of the consideration
other than cash received by the Corporation shall be the fair value
of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of
securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by
the Corporation will be the Closing Sale Price, or in the absence
of a Closing Sale Price, the Closing Bid Price of such securities
as of the date of receipt. If any Common Stock, Option, or
Convertible Security is issued in connection with any merger in
which the Corporation is the surviving corporation, the amount of
consideration for such Common Stock, Option, or Convertible
Security shall be deemed to be the fair market value of such
portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity
as is attributable to such Common Stock, Options, or Convertible
Securities, as the case may be. The fair market value of any
consideration other than cash will be determined jointly by the
Corporation and the Required Holders. If such parties are unable to
reach agreement within ten (10) days after the occurrence of
an event requiring valuation (the “ Valuation
Event ”), the fair market value of such consideration
will be determined within five (5) Business Days after the
tenth (10th) day following the Valuation Event by an independent,
reputable appraiser jointly selected by the Corporation and the
Required Holders. The determination of such appraiser shall be
deemed binding upon all parties absent manifest error and the fees
and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the
Corporation.
vi. In case any
Option is issued in connection with the issue or sale of other
securities of the Corporation, together comprising one integrated
transaction in which no specific consideration is allocated to such
Option by the parties to such transaction, the Option shall be
deemed to have been issued for a consideration of $0.001.
vii. The number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time does not
include shares owned or held by or for the account of the
Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation, and the
disposition of any shares so owned or held shall be considered an
issue or sale of Common Stock.
viii. No
adjustment in the Conversion Price for the Note need be made if
such adjustment would result in a change in the Conversion Price of
less than $0.001. Any adjustment of less than $0.001 that is not
made shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time of and
together with any subsequent adjustment that, on a cumulative
basis, amounts to an adjustment of $0.001 or more in the Conversion
Price.
ix. If the
Corporation takes a record of the holders of Common Stock for the
purpose of entitling them (a) to receive a dividend or other
distribution payable in Common Stock, Options, or Convertible
Securities or (b) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock,
Options, or Convertible Securities, then such record date shall be
deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the shares of Common
Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of
such dividend or upon the making of such other distribution or the
date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as
the case may be; provided that if, after the occurrence of the
record date, the Corporation increases or reduces the number of
shares of Common Stock issued or deemed issued or fails to
consummate the actual or deemed issuance that was the subject of
the record date, the Conversion Price will thereafter be readjusted
up or down to reflect the actual number of shares of Common Stock
issued or deemed issued in connection with such record date.
d.
Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock . If the
Corporation at any time subdivides (by any stock split, stock
dividend, recapitalization, or otherwise) its outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Conversion Price
in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be
proportionately reduced, and if the Corporation at any time
combines (by reverse stock split or otherwise) its outstanding
shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the
Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination
shall be proportionately increased.
e.
Other Corporate Events . If at any time or from time to time
there shall be a capital reorganization of the Common Stock (other
than a subdivision or combination of shares provided for elsewhere
in this Agreement) or a spin-off, merger or consolidation of the
Corporation with or into another corporation where the Corporation
is not the surviving corporation, or the sale, lease, or transfer
of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s properties
and assets to any other person (collectively, a “
Corporate Event ”), then, as a part of
such Corporate Event, provision shall be made so that the Holder of
the Note shall, after such Corporate Event, be entitled to receive
upon conversion of the Note, the number of shares of stock or other
securities or property of the Corporation (including cash), or of
the successor corporation resulting from such Corporate Event, to
which a holder of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion would
have been entitled on such Corporate Event. In any such case,
appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the
provisions of this Section 3 with respect to the rights
of the Holder, or any later Holder, of the Note after the Corporate
Event to the effect that the provisions of this
Section 3 (including adjustment of the Conversion Price
and the number of shares purchasable upon conversion of Note) shall
be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be
practicable.
f.
Rights Upon Change of Control .
i. Change of
Control . Each of the following events shall constitute a
“ Change of Control ”:
A. the
consolidation, merger or other business combination (including,
without limitation, a reorganization or recapitalization) of the
Corporation with or into another Person (other than (1) a
consolidation, merger or other business combination (including,
without limitation, reorganization or recapitalization) in which
holders of the Corporation’s voting power immediately prior
to the transaction continue after the transaction to hold, directly
or indirectly, the voting power of the surviving entity or entities
necessary to elect a majority of the members of the board of
directors (or their equivalent if other than a corporation) of such
entity or entities, or (2) pursuant to a migratory merger
effected solely for the purpose of changing the jurisdiction of
incorporation of the Corporation);
B. the sale or
transfer of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s
assets; or
C. a purchase,
tender or exchange offer made to and accepted by the holders of
more than the 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.
ii. No sooner
than fifteen (15) days nor later than ten (10) days prior
to the consummation of a Change of Control, but not prior to the
public announcement of such Change of Control, the Corporation
shall deliver written notice thereof via facsimile and overnight
courier to the Holder (a “ Change of Control
Notice ”).
iii.
Assumption . Prior to the consummation of any Change of
Control, the Corporation will secure from any Person purchasing the
Corporation’s assets or Common Stock or any successor
resulting from such Change of Control (in each case, an “
Acquiring Entity ”) a written agreement (in
form and substance satisfactory to the Required Holders) to deliver
to each Holder of the Tranche A Notes and/or Tranche B Notes in
exchange for such Tranche A Notes and/or Tranche B Notes, a
security of the Acquiring Entity evidenced by a written instrument
substantially similar in form and substance to the Tranche A Notes
and Tranche B Notes, including, without limitation, having a
principal amount and interest rate equal to the principal amounts
and the interest rates of the Tranche A Notes and Tranche B Notes
held by such Holder, and satisfactory to the Required Holders. In
the event that an Acquiring Entity is directly or indirectly
controlled
