4.
Conversion
 
(a) Investor Conversion. The Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation, at any time and from time-to-time while all or any portion of the Principal Amount under the Note that is still outstanding to convert all or any portion of the outstanding Principal Amount and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon into a number of shares of Common Stock of the Company (the “Conversion Shares”) calculated as the total dollar amount to be converted divided by $0.30 (the “Conversion Price”). The Conversion Price shall be subject to the following adjustments from time to time such that in the event the Company effects a stock split or subdivision, distribution of bonus shares to all shareholders or any other reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Company’s share capital where the shareholders retain their pro rata holdings in the Company, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately adjusted.
 
(b) Not later than five (5) Business Days after any conversion date, the Company will deliver to the Holder, by overnight courier service to the address of the Holder set out on page 1 of this Note (or such other address as the Holder may notify the Company of from time to time in accordance with Section 6), certificates representing the Conversion Shares (bearing such legends as may be required by applicable law) representing the aggregate number of Conversion Shares being acquired.
 
(c) Upon a conversion hereunder, the Company shall not be required to issue certificates representing fractions of any Conversion Shares, and the number of Conversion Shares shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number.
 
5.
Prepayment
 
(a) The Company may, upon ten (10) days’ prior written notice to the Holder (a “Prepayment Notice”), prepay any portion of the Principal Amount, and accrued interest thereon, without the prior written consent of the Holder, subject to the prepayment terms and conditions set out in this Section 5. The Prepayment Notice shall set forth the date on which prepayment is to occur, such date not being any earlier than ten (10) days after the date of the Prepayment Notice and no later than the Maturity Date (the “Prepayment Date”) and shall set forth that portion of the Principal Amount to be prepaid, along with the calculated accrued interest thereon, as through and including the then applicable Maturity Date (the “Prepayment Amount”).
 
(b) The Prepayment Amount (less any tax, if applicable to the Holder, required by applicable law to be withheld by the Company, provided, that the Company shall be permitted to withhold the amount of tax as above if it timely and fully provides the Holder with any and all documentation as may be required the Israeli Taxes Authority to enable the Holder to be credited by against or offset the amount so withheld) shall be wire transferred to the Holder by the Company in accordance with the wiring instructions set out on page 1 of this Note (or such other instructions as the Holder may give the Company of from time to time in accordance with Section 6) (or such other method as may be mutually agreed to by the Holder and the Company from time to time). The wiring of the Prepayment Amount, or payment by other means (if agreed upon, as above), by the Company on or before the Prepayment Date shall be deemed to be payment on the Prepayment Date unless the wire, or payment by such other means as may be mutually agreed to by the Holder and the Company, is not received prior to the Prepayment Date. If only a part of the Principal Amount is to be prepaid, a new certificate for the balance of the Principal Amount shall be issued at the expense of the Company and delivered to the Holder, together with the cheque representing the Prepayment as provided for in this Section 5(b).
 
 
 
20
 
 
(c) At any time after a Prepayment Notice is given, the Company shall have the right to deliver to the Holder, or to such other person as may be directed by the Holder, the Prepayment Amount. Upon the delivery of the Prepayment Amount to the Holder being made or upon the Prepayment Date, whichever is later, the Note shall be and be deemed to be paid.
 
6.
Adjustments
 
(a) If, at any time while any portion of this Note remains outstanding, the Company effectuates a stock split or reverse stock split of its Common Stock or issues a dividend on Common Stock consisting of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price and any other amounts calculated as contemplated hereby or by any of the other Agreements shall be equitably adjusted to reflect such action. By way of illustration, and not in limitation, of the foregoing, (i) if the Company effectuates a 2:1 split of its Common Stock, thereafter, with respect to any conversion for which the Company issues shares after the record date of such split, the Conversion Price shall be deemed to be one-half of what it had been immediately prior to such split; (ii) if the Company effectuates a 1:10 reverse split of its Common Stock, thereafter, with respect to any conversion for which the Company issues shares after the record date of such reverse split, the Conversion Price shall be deemed to be ten times what it had been calculated to be immediately prior to such split; and (iii) if the Company declares a stock dividend of one share of Common Stock for every 10 shares outstanding, thereafter, with respect to any conversion for which the Company issues shares after the record date of such dividend, the Conversion Price shall be deemed to be such amount multiplied by a fraction, of which the numerator is the number of shares (10 in the example) for which a dividend share will be issued and the denominator is such number of shares plus the dividend share(s) issuable or issued thereon (11 in the example).
 
(b) In case of any capital reorganization or of any reclassification of the capital of the Company or in case of the consolidation, merger or amalgamation of the Company with or into any other company or of the sale of the assets of the Company as or substantially as an entirety or of any other company, this Note shall, after such capital reorganization, reclassification of capital, consolidation, merger, amalgamation or sale, confer the right to convert into that number of shares or other securities or property of the Company or of the company resulting from such capital reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, amalgamation or to which such sale shall be made, as the case may be, to which the Holder of the shares deliverable at the time of such capital reorganization, reclassification of capital, consolidation, merger, amalgamation or sale had the Note been converted would have been entitled on such capital reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, amalgamation or sale and in any such case, if necessary, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the application of the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights and interest thereafter of the Holders of the Notes to the end that the provisions set forth herein shall thereafter correspondingly be made applicable as nearly as may reasonable be expected in relation to any shares or other securities or property thereafter deliverable on the exercise of the Warrants. The subdivision or consolidation of the shares at any time outstanding into a greater or lesser number of shares (whether with or without par value) shall not be deemed to be a capital reorganization or a reclassification of the capital of the Company for the purposes of this Section.
