Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section (14).

(c)
Payment Dates. Whenever any payment or other obligation hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.
(2)
PAYMENTS
(a)
Monthly Payments. If, any time on or after November 1, 2024, and from time to time thereafter, an Amortization Event occurs, then the Company shall make monthly payments beginning on the 7th Trading Day after the Amortization Event Date and continuing on the same day of each successive Calendar Month. Each monthly payment shall be in an amount equal to the sum of (i) $300,000 of Principal (in the aggregate among this Debenture and all Other Debentures), or the outstanding Principal, if the Principal (in the aggregate among this Debenture and all Other Debentures) is less than such amount (the “Amortization Principal Amount”), plus (ii) the Payment Premium (as defined below) in respect of such Amortization Principal Amount, and (iii) accrued and unpaid interest hereunder as of each payment date. The obligation of the Company to make monthly prepayments related to a Amortization Event shall cease (with respect to any payment that has not yet come due) if any time after the Amortization Event Date (A) in the event of a Floor Price Event, on the date that is the seventh (7th) consecutive Trading Day that the daily VWAP is greater than 110% of the Floor Price then in effect, or (B) in the event of a Registration Event, the condition or event causing the Registration Event has been cured or the Holder is able to resell the Common Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act, unless a subsequent Amortization Event occurs. If this Debenture and any Other Debentures are held by more than one holder, then the Amortization Principal Amount and Payment Premium in respect of such Amortization Principal Amount shall be allocated to each holder based on each holder’s pro-rata portion of the total outstanding Principal amount outstanding on this Debenture and all Other Debentures. If this Debenture and all Other Debentures are held by one holder, then such holder shall decide the allocation of payments between this Debenture and all Other Debentures in its sole discretion.
(b)
The Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to redeem (“Optional Redemption”) early in cash a portion or all amounts outstanding under this Debenture at the Redemption Amount (as defined below) as described in this Section; provided that the Company provides the Holder with at least ten (10) Trading Days’ prior written notice (each, a “Redemption Notice”) of its desire to exercise an Optional Redemption, which Redemption Notice (i) shall be delivered to the Holder after the closing of regular trading hours on a Trading Day, and (ii) may only be given if the VWAP on the date such Redemption Notice is delivered is less than the Fixed Price. Each Redemption Notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the outstanding Principal amount of the Debentures to be redeemed and the Redemption Amount. The “Redemption Amount” shall be an amount equal to the outstanding Principal balance being redeemed by the Company, plus the Payment Premium in respect of such Principal amount, plus all accrued and unpaid Interest on such Principal amount to be redeemed as of such redemption date. After receipt of a Redemption Notice, the Holder shall have ten (10) Trading Days (beginning with the Trading Day immediately following the date of such Redemption Notice) to elect to convert all or any portion of the outstanding Principal of the Debenture plus all accrued and unpaid Interest on such Principal amount, if any, plus the Payment Premium, if any, in respect of such Principal. On the eleventh (11th) Trading Day after the applicable Redemption Notice, the Company shall deliver to the Holder the Redemption Amount with respect to the Principal amount redeemed to the extent not converted and otherwise after giving effect to conversions or other payments made during the ten (10) Trading Day period.

T, U and X of the Federal Reserve Board, as in effect from time to time and all official rulings and interpretations thereunder or thereof), or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock or to refund indebtedness originally incurred for such purpose;
(xiii)
Any Event of Default (as defined in the Other Debentures or in any Transaction Document other than this Debenture) occurs with respect to any Other Debentures; or
(xiv)
The Company shall fail to observe or perform any material covenant, agreement or warranty contained in, or otherwise commit any material breach or default of any provision of this Debenture (except as may be covered by Section (3)(a)(i) through (3)(a)(xiii) hereof) or any other Transaction Document in each case which is not cured or remedied within ten (10) Business Days of receipt by the Company of written notice of such breach or default from the Holder.
(b)
During the time that any portion of this Debenture is outstanding, if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the full unpaid Principal amount of this Debenture, together with interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof, to the date of acceleration shall become at the Holder's election given by notice pursuant to Section (7), immediately due and payable in cash; provided that, in the case of any event with respect to the Company described in Section (3)(a)(ii), the full unpaid Principal amount of this Debenture, together with accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof to the date of acceleration, shall automatically become due and payable.

(4)
CONVERSION OF DEBENTURE. This Debenture shall be convertible into Common Shares, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section (4).
(a)
Conversion Right. Subject to the limitations of Section (4)(c), at any time or times on or after the Issuance Date, the Holder shall be entitled to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid Conversion Amount (as defined below) into fully paid and nonassessable Common Shares in accordance with Section (4)(b), at the Conversion Price (as defined below). The number of Common Shares issuable upon conversion of any Conversion Amount pursuant to this Section (4)(a) shall be determined by dividing (x) such Conversion Amount by (y) the Conversion Price. The Company shall not issue any fraction of a Common Share upon any conversion. All calculations under this Section (4) shall be rounded to the nearest $0.0001. If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a Common Share, the Company shall round such fraction of a Common Share down to the nearest whole share. The Company shall pay any and all transfer, stamp and similar taxes that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Common Shares upon conversion of any Conversion Amount, unless such taxes are due because the Holder requests such Common Shares to be issued in a name other than the Holder’s name, in which case the Holder shall pay such taxes.
(b)
Mechanics of Conversion.
(i)
Optional Conversion. To convert any Conversion Amount into Common Shares on any date (a "Conversion Date"), the Holder shall (A) transmit by email, for receipt on or prior to 11:59 p.m., New York time, on such date, a copy of an executed notice of conversion in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (the "Conversion Notice") to the Company and (B) if required by Section (4)(b)(iii), surrender this Debenture to a nationally recognized overnight delivery service for delivery to the Company (or an indemnification undertaking reasonably satisfactory to the Company with respect to this Debenture in the case of its loss, theft or destruction). On or before the second (2nd) Business Day following the date of receipt of a Conversion Notice (the "Share Delivery Date"), the Company shall (X) if legends are not required to be placed on certificates or the book-entry position of the Common Shares and provided that the Company’s transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company's ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, instruct such transfer agent to credit such aggregate number of Common Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled to the Holder's or its designee's balance account with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system or (Y) if the Company’s transfer agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, or if restrictive legends

are required to be placed on certificates or book-entry positions of the Common Shares, issue and deliver to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate or book-entry position, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Common Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled. If this Debenture is physically surrendered for conversion and the outstanding Principal of this Debenture is greater than the Principal portion of the Conversion Amount being converted, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than three (3) Business Days after receipt of this Debenture and at its own expense, issue and deliver to the holder a new Debenture representing the outstanding Principal not converted. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the Common Shares issuable upon a conversion of this Debenture shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such Common Shares upon the transmission of a Conversion Notice.
(ii)
Company's Failure to Timely Convert. If the Company shall fail, for any reason or for no reason, on or prior to the applicable Share Delivery Date to issue and deliver a certificate to the Holder or credit the Holder's balance account with DTC for the number of Common Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon such Holder's conversion of any Conversion Amount (a "Conversion Failure"), and if on or after such Share Delivery Date the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Common Shares to deliver in satisfaction of a bona fide sale by the Holder to an unaffiliated third party of Common Shares issuable upon such conversion that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company (a "Buy-In"), then the Company shall, within three (3) Business Days after the Holder's request and in the Holder's discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other out of pocket expenses, if any) for the Common Shares so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company's obligation to issue and deliver such Common Shares shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder such Common Shares and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of Common Shares, times (B) the Closing Price on the Conversion Date.
(iii)
Book-Entry. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of any portion of this Debenture in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Debenture to the Company unless (A) the full Conversion Amount represented by this Debenture is being converted or (B) the Holder has provided the Company with prior written notice (which notice may be included in a Conversion Notice) requesting reissuance of this Debenture upon physical surrender of this Debenture. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the Principal and Interest converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of this Debenture upon any partial conversion.
(c)
Limitations on Conversions.
(i)
Beneficial Ownership. The Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Debenture to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion, the Holder, together with any affiliate thereof, would beneficially own (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 4.99% of the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion. The Holder shall have the authority and obligation to determine whether the restriction contained in this Section will limit any particular conversion hereunder and to the extent that the Holder determines that the limitation contained in this Section applies, the determination of which portion of the Principal amount of this Debenture (taking into account the conversion of accrued Interest on such Principal amount) is convertible shall be the responsibility and obligation of the Holder. The provisions of this Section may be waived by a holder (but only as to itself and not to any other holder) upon not less than 65 days prior notice to the Company. Other holders shall be unaffected by any such waiver.
(ii)
Other Conversion Limitations. During any consecutive 30-day period, the Holder agrees that it shall not convert, together with its affiliates, more than an aggregate amount of Principal equal to $300,000 if the Conversion Price is less than the Fixed Price, provided, however, that the foregoing limitation in this Section 4(c)(ii) shall not apply upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. This limitation may be waived with the written consent of the Company.
(d)
Other Provisions.
(i)
All calculations under this Section (4) shall be rounded to the nearest $0.0001 or whole share.
(ii)
The Company covenants that it will at all times authorize for issuance such number of Common Shares not less than the maximum number of Common Shares issuable upon conversion of this Debenture and the Other Debentures (assuming for purposes hereof that (x) this Debenture and such Other Debentures are convertible at the Floor Price as of the

5

DOCPROPERTY "DocID" \* MERGEFORMAT

DOCPROPERTY "CUS_DocIDChunk0" 4855-3816-2126\9


 

date of determination, (y) any such conversion shall not take into account any limitations on the conversion of the Debenture or Other Debentures set forth herein or therein (the “Required Reserve Amount”), provided that at no time shall the number of Common Shares authorized pursuant to this Section (4)(d)(ii) be reduced other than proportionally with respect to all Common Shares in connection with any conversion (other than pursuant to the conversion of this Debenture and the Other Debentures in accordance with their terms) and/or cancellation, or reverse stock split. The Company covenants that, upon issuance in accordance with conversion of this Debenture in accordance with its terms, the Common Shares, when issued, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
(iii)
Nothing herein shall limit a Holder's right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of Default pursuant to Section (3) herein for the Company’s failure to deliver certificates or book-entry for Common Shares upon conversion within the period specified herein and such Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief, in each case without the need to post a bond or provide other security. The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit the Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law.
(iv)
Legal Opinions. The Company is obligated to cause its legal counsel to deliver legal opinions to the Company’s transfer agent in connection with any legend removal upon the expiration of any holding period or other requirement for which the Underlying Shares may bear legends restricting the transfer thereof. To the extent such opinions are not provided (either timely or at all), then, in addition to being an Event of Default in accordance with Section 3(a)(xiv), the Company agrees to reimburse the Holder for all reasonable and documented out of pocket legal costs incurred by the Holder in connection with any legal opinions paid for by the Holder in connection with sale or transfer of Underlying Shares. The Holder shall notify the Company of any such costs it incurs that are referred to in this section from time to time and all amounts owed hereunder shall be paid by the Company with reasonable promptness.
(5)
Adjustments to Conversion Price
(a)
Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Shares. If the Company, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding, shall (a) pay a stock dividend or otherwise make a distribution or distributions on all or substantially all of its Common Shares or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in Common Shares (excluding any interest payments or equivalents thereto that are paid in Common Shares and, for the avoidance of doubt, excluding conversions, exercises or exchanges of warrants and other securities into or for Common Shares), (b) subdivide outstanding Common Shares into a larger number of shares, (c) combine (including by way of reverse stock split or consolidation) outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of shares, or (d) issue by reclassification of Common Shares any shares of capital stock of the Company, then each of the Fixed Price and the Floor Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of Common Shares (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.
(b)
Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Issuance of Common Shares. If the Company, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding, issues or sells any Common Shares or Convertible Securities (other than shares issued or sold by the Company in connection with any Excluded Securities), for a consideration per share (the “New Issuance Price”) less than a price equal to the Fixed Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale (such price the "Applicable Price") (the foregoing a "Dilutive Issuance"), then immediately after such Dilutive Issuance the Fixed Price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to the New Issuance Price. For the purposes hereof, if the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities (other than shares issued or sold by the Company in connection with any Excluded Securities) and the lowest price per share for which one Common Share is issuable upon such conversion or exchange or exercise thereof is less than the Applicable Price, then such Common Share shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities for such price per share. No further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Share upon conversion or exchange or exercise of such Convertible Securities.
(c)
Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Issuance of Pursuant to the Clear Street ATM. If the Company issues any Common Shares pursuant to the Clear Street ATM during the period starting on the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement and ending on the date of the effectiveness of the initial Registration Statement filed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, then the Fixed Price shall be subject to an adjustment (downwards only) to a price equal 120% of the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately prior to the date of effectiveness of the Registration Statement.

(d)
Other Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section (5) but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features, or issuing Convertible Securities with a variable conversion formula that is more favorable than this Debenture), then the Company's Board of Directors will make an appropriate adjustment in the Conversion Price so as to protect the rights of the Holder under this Debenture; provided that no such adjustment will increase the Conversion Price as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section (5). If the Company issues any Convertible Securities with a variable conversion formula that is more favorable than this Debenture, then at the option of the Holder, the Market Price formula shall be changed to match that of the new Convertible Securities.
(e)
Other Corporate Events. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of any Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Shares (a "Corporate Event"), the Company shall make appropriate provision to ensure that the Holder will thereafter have the right to receive upon a conversion of this Debenture, at the Holder's option, (i) in addition to the Common Shares receivable upon such conversion, such securities or other assets to which the Holder would have been entitled with respect to such Common Shares had such Common Shares been held by the Holder upon the consummation of such Corporate Event (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of this Debenture) or (ii) in lieu of the Common Shares otherwise receivable upon such conversion, such securities or other assets received by the holders of Common Shares in connection with the consummation of such Corporate Event in such amounts as the Holder would have been entitled to receive had this Debenture initially been issued with conversion rights for the form of such consideration (as opposed to Common Shares) at a conversion rate for such consideration commensurate with the Conversion Price. The provisions of this Section shall apply similarly and equally to successive Corporate Events and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the conversion or redemption of this Debenture.
(f)
Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to Section (5) hereof, the Company shall promptly provide the Holder with a written notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
(g)
In case of any (1) merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, or (2) sale by the Company of all or substantially all the assets of the Company in one or a series of related transactions, a Holder shall have the right to (A) exercise any then applicable rights under Section (5)(b), (B) convert the aggregate amount of this Debenture then outstanding into the shares of stock and other securities, cash and property receivable upon or deemed to be held by holders of Common Shares following such merger, consolidation or sale, and such Holder shall be entitled upon such event or series of related events to receive such amount of securities, cash and property as the Common Shares into which such aggregate Principal amount of this Debenture could have been converted immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or sales would have been entitled, or (C) in the case of a merger or consolidation, require the surviving entity to issue to the Holder a convertible debenture with a Principal amount equal to the aggregate Principal amount of this Debenture then held by such Holder, plus all accrued and unpaid Interest and other amounts owing thereon, which such newly issued convertible debenture shall have terms identical (including with respect to conversion) to the terms of this Debenture, and shall be entitled to all of the rights and privileges of the Holder of this Debenture set forth herein and the agreements pursuant to which this Debenture was issued. In the case of clause (C), the conversion price applicable for the newly issued convertible debentures shall be based upon the amount of securities, cash and property that each Common Share would receive in such transaction and the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the effectiveness or closing date for such transaction. The terms of any such merger, sale or consolidation shall include such terms so as to continue to give the Holder the right to receive the securities, cash and property set forth in this Section upon any conversion or redemption following such event. This provision shall similarly apply to successive such events.
(6)
REISSUANCE OF THIS DEBENTURE.
(a)
Transfer. If this Debenture is to be transferred, the Holder shall surrender this Debenture to the Company, whereupon the Company will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Debenture (in accordance with Section (6)(d)), registered in the name of the registered transferee or assignee, representing the outstanding Principal being transferred by the Holder (along with any accrued and unpaid Interest thereof) and, if less than the entire outstanding Principal is being transferred, a new Debenture (in accordance with Section (6)(d)) to the Holder representing the outstanding Principal not being transferred. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Debenture, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of Section (4)(b)(iii) following conversion or redemption of any portion of this Debenture, the outstanding Principal represented by this Debenture may be less than the Principal stated on the face of this Debenture. The Debentures and the Common Shares issuable on the conversion thereof
