Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Letter of Intent

On July 6, 2023, DUET Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into a binding letter of intent (the “Letter of Intent”) with Fenix 360 Pte Ltd, a Singapore-based social media company that provides artists and other creators with a platform to build and connect with their audience (“Fenix”). Pursuant to the Letter of Intent, the Company will acquire 100% of the outstanding equity interests of Fenix in a proposed business combination (the “Proposed Business Combination”). Consummation of the Proposed Business Combination shall be subject to the execution of a mutually satisfactory definitive business combination agreement by the Company and Fenix (a “Definitive Agreement”).

Pursuant to the Letter of Intent, the total consideration to be provided to Fenix’s equity holders (including holders of stock options) in the Proposed Business Combination will be $600,000,000, or such other amount as agreed to by the parties and confirmed by the independent fairness opinion provider, and approved by the board of the Company. Pursuant to the Letter of Intent, the parties have agreed to work exclusively with each other, and not to entertain other proposals and opportunities until the earlier of the termination or the expiration of the Letter of Intent. The Letter of Intent also includes customary provisions related to confidentiality and expenses.

The Company expects to announce additional details regarding the Proposed Business Combination when a Definitive Agreement is executed. Completion of the Proposed Business Combination will be subject to, among other matters, the completion of due diligence, the negotiation of a Definitive Agreement, satisfaction of the conditions negotiated therein and requisite approval of the Proposed Business Transaction by board and stockholders of the Company and Fenix, as applicable. There can be no assurance that a Definitive Agreement will be entered into or that the Proposed Business Combination will be consummated on the terms or timeframe currently contemplated, or at all.

The foregoing description of the Letter of Intent does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Letter of Intent, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

Convertible Note Purchase Agreement

On July 6, 2023, DUET Partners LLC (the “Sponsor”) and Fenix entered into a convertible note purchase agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which Fenix agreed to loan $200,000 to the Sponsor at the signing of the Letter of Intent and an additional $800,000 at the signing of the Definitive Agreement. In addition, in order to finance any further extensions in connection with the Proposed Business Combination, Fenix shall at its discretion, loan funds as may be required up to another $500,000. The Sponsor will sell and issue to Fenix one or more unsecured, non-interest-bearing notes in connection with the aforementioned loans, with an aggregate principal amount of up to $1,500,000 (the “Fenix Notes”).

The Note Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, conditions and indemnification obligations by each party thereto. The representations and warranties contained therein were made only for the purposes of the Note Purchase Agreement, and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement and are subject to certain limitations set forth therein.

The Fenix Notes are due and payable by the Sponsor upon the closing of the Proposed Business Combination between the Company and Fenix (the “Maturity Date”). The Fenix Notes are convertible into ordinary shares of the Company pursuant to terms that will be set forth in the Definitive Agreement. The Fenix Notes will be cancelled and the principal amount of the loans disbursed by the Sponsor to the Company (as described below in the section titled “Promissory Note”) shall be forgiven, and the balance of the principal amount of the Fenix Notes not disbursed by the Sponsor to the Company will be returned to Fenix (i) in the event that a Definitive Agreement is not signed by July 31, 2023 (or such later date that may be mutually agreed between the parties), (ii) if a Definitive Agreement is entered into and then subsequently terminated by the Company, or (iii) if the PCAOB audited financial statements of Fenix have not been delivered by the date mutually agreed between the parties and stipulated in the Business Combination Agreement.

The issuance of the Fenix Notes will be made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The foregoing descriptions of the Note Purchase Agreement and the Fenix Notes are summaries only and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of the Note Purchase Agreement and the form of the Fenix Notes which is attached to the Note Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.2 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

Promissory Note

On July 6, 2023, the Company issued a promissory note (the “Promissory Note”) in the principal amount of $1,500,000 to DUET Partners LLC (the “Sponsor”). The Promissory Note was issued to provide the Company with additional working capital, and the funds provided in accordance therewith will not be deposited into the Company’s trust account. The Company issued the Promissory Note in consideration for a loan from the Sponsor to fund the Company’s extension costs and working capital requirements. The Promissory Note bears no interest and is due and payable upon the earlier to occur of (i) the date on which the Company’s initial business combination is consummated and (ii) the liquidation of the Company on or before July 23, 2023 (subject to the extension of the period in which the Company must complete its initial business combination pursuant to the Company’s governing documents, or such later liquidation date as may be approved by the Company’s stockholders). At the election of the Sponsor, the unpaid principal amount of the Promissory Note may be converted into units of the Company (the “Conversion Units”) and the total Conversion Units so issued shall be equal to: (x) the portion of the principal amount of the Promissory Note being converted divided by (y) the conversion price of ten dollars ($10.00), rounded up to the nearest whole number of Conversion Units.

The issuance of the Promissory Note was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The foregoing description is a summary only and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Promissory Note, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.3 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

Exhibit 10.1

July 6, 2023

Fenix 360 Pte Ltd of 133 Cecil Street, #05-02 Keck Seng Tower Singapore 069535. 

Attn: Mr. ALLAN KLEPFISZ

Chief Executive Officer

Re: Mutually Exclusive Letter of Intent

Dear Mr. Allan Klepfisz,

This letter and the attached Term Sheet at Exhibit A supersede and replace the Non-Exclusive Letter of Intent dated May 16, 2023 (and Exhibit A) signed by you and DUET (“May 16 LOI”). The May 16 LOI is hereby null and void.

We have enjoyed learning about Fenix 360 Pte Ltd (the “Company”) and getting to know you over the past several weeks. We are pleased to submit this Letter of Intent (“LOI”) relating to a potential business combination (the “Proposed Transaction”) involving DUET Acquisition Corp., a Nasdaq-listed exempted company incorporated in the State of Delaware (NASDAQ: DUETU) (the “Public Entity”), and the Company (the Public Entity and the Company together shall be referred to as the “Parties” and each as a “Party”).

The successful acquisition of Fenix 360 will give Duet an attractive opportunity to enter the media space and tap into advertising market opportunities. We are excited on the disruptive potential of the Fenix360 platform and are keen to follow up with you for further details to have a successful business combination.

The proposed transaction between the Public Entity and the Company (the “Proposed Transaction”) is intended to be on substantially the terms and conditions in Exhibit A attached (the “Term Sheet”).

We anticipate the completion of our due diligence of the Company by July 21, 2023 or at a later date to be mutually agreed. Key diligence items will be focused on financial due diligence, commercial due diligence, legal due diligence, the competitive landscape and M&A strategy.

1. Binding Commitment. This LOI shall be legally binding upon the Parties. Each Party reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to reject any and all proposals made by the other Party or its affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, consultants, contractors, accountants, agents, representatives and financial and legal advisors (collectively with such affiliates, such Party’s “Representatives”) with regard to the Proposed Transaction. Neither Party will have (and each Party hereby irrevocably waives) any claims against the other Party or any of its Representatives arising out of or relating to the Proposed Transaction other than those, if any, that either such Party may in the future have with respect to the binding matters or pursuant to the Definitive Agreements (if executed and delivered by the Public Entity, the Company and any other parties thereto).

1

2. Definitive Agreements. The obligations of the Public Entity and the Company to consummate the Proposed Transaction are subject to and conditioned upon the negotiation and execution of definitive agreements, including a business combination agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) and other documents (collectively, the “Definitive Agreements”), containing such terms and provisions as are mutually agreed to by the Parties. The closing of the Proposed Transaction contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) will be subject to the satisfaction of all conditions precedent to Closing as identified in the Business Combination Agreement. The Parties intend to sign the Business Combination Agreement by July 31, 2023, or at another mutually acceptable date (“Signing Date”).

3. Confidentiality Agreement. The Parties acknowledge and affirm the terms of the Nondisclosure Agreement, dated as of April 26, 2023 (the “NDA”), between the Public Entity and the Company. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the existence and terms of this LOI and the Proposed Transaction as disclosed to the general public shall not be treated as Confidential. Additionally, the Company understands and acknowledges that after each Party executes this LOI until 30 days from the date of this LOI or such longer period of time mutually agreed to by the Parties, the Public Entity may on a confidential basis disclose certain confidential information about the Company that is approved in advance in writing by the Company to certain of its significant existing public stockholders and other selected potential investors who, in each case, are informed of such confidential information and have agreed to keep such confidential information confidential in order to gauge their support of the Proposed Transaction.

4. Exclusivity. In consideration of the time, effort and expense to be undertaken by the Parties in connection with the Proposed Transaction, the Parties agree that during the period from the execution of this LOI and ending at the expiration or termination of this LOI (the “Exclusivity Period”), (i) the Parties will not, and will cause their Representatives not to, solicit or initiate, engage in or enter into discussions, negotiations or transactions with, or knowingly encourage, or provide any information to, any other person or entity concerning any merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, financing transaction, reorganization or similar transaction involving such Party with such other person or entity (the transactions described shall be referred to as “Competing Transactions” or each a “Competing Transaction”), and (ii) the Parties will not, and shall cause its Representatives not to, enter into any agreement in principle, letter of intent or definitive agreement, or make any filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or other governmental authority, with respect to a Competing Transaction, unless required by applicable law. The Parties shall, upon execution of this LOI, immediately suspend any pre-existing discussion with all parties other than the respective other Party regarding any Competing Transaction. During the Exclusivity Period, the Company will cooperate with the Public Entity and its Representatives regarding due diligence matters and will, upon reasonable advance notice and during normal business hours, afford the Public Entity and its Representatives with reasonable access (to the extent reasonably practicable) to the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ respective books and records and personnel. Upon request by the Public Entity, the Company agrees to make its management reasonably available to participate in a “testing the waters” process in order to determine general interest and market enthusiasm for the Proposed Transaction, as well as any investor meetings (which may occur remotely) with potential investors in any PIPE transaction. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in the foregoing does or shall be deemed to obligate the Public Entity or its Representatives to conduct any due diligence other than diligence which the Public Entity may, in its sole discretion, determine to conduct. Subject to mutual agreement between the Parties, the Exclusivity Period may be extended.

2

5. Expenses. Except as set forth in any Definitive Agreements entered into by the Parties, each of the Parties will pay its own costs and expenses (including legal, financial advisory, consulting and accounting fees and expenses) incurred at any time in connection with pursuing or consummating the Proposed Transaction; provided that if the transaction closes, the surviving entity shall pay all fees and expenses of each party, including legal, accounting and advisory fees.

6. Termination. This LOI can only be terminated as follows: (a) by the mutual written agreement of the Parties to terminate this LOI; (b) by either Party if the BCA is not signed by the Signing Date; (c) by Public Entity if the PCAOB audited financial statements by the Company are not delivered by the Signing Date; or (d) upon execution and delivery of the Definitive Agreements. Any termination of this LOI shall be pursuant to a written notice provided by the terminating Party to the other Party and, any termination in accordance with this Section 6 shall be effective upon receipt of such written notice by the non-terminating Party. Upon termination of this LOI, this LOI will be deemed null and void and of no further force or effect, and all obligations and liabilities of the Parties under this LOI or otherwise related to the Proposed Transaction will terminate. The termination of this LOI will not relieve any of the Parties of liability for such Party’s pre-termination willful and material breach.

7. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. This LOI and the rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder will be governed by and construed under and in accordance with the laws of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than New York. Each Party consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York located in the Borough of Manhattan in New York City and the courts of the United States located in the Borough of Manhattan in New York City in the State of New York for the adjudication of any action or legal proceeding relating to or arising out of this agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (and each Party agrees not to commence any action or legal proceeding relating thereto except in any such court). Each Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue in such courts and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action or legal proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each Party hereby agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. certified mail addressed to such Party at the address set forth above (or such other address as notified by either party to the other Party in writing) shall be effective service of process for any such suit, action or proceeding brought against such Party in any such court. Each Party agrees that a final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon such Party and may be enforced in any other courts to whose jurisdiction such Party is or may be subject by suit upon such judgment.

8. Trust Account Waiver. The Company hereby acknowledges that the Public Entity has established a trust account (the “Trust Account”) containing the proceeds of its initial public offering (the “IPO”) and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) for the benefit of the Public Entity’s public stockholders. For and in consideration of the Public Entity’s entering into this LOI, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company hereby agrees on behalf of itself and its affiliates that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, as a result of this LOI, neither the Company nor any of its affiliates does now or shall at any time have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom, or make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom), regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, this LOI or any proposed or actual business relationship between the Public Entity or the Public Entity’s Representatives, on the one hand, and the Company or its Representatives, on the other, or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (any and all such claims are collectively referred to hereafter as the “Released Claims”). The Company hereby irrevocably waives (on its own behalf and on behalf of its related parties) any Released Claims that it may have against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) now or in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any discussions, contracts or agreements with the Public Entity or this LOI and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) relating to this LOI or for any reason whatsoever. The Company agrees and acknowledges that such irrevocable waiver is material to this LOI and specifically relied upon by the Public Entity and the Public Entity’s affiliates to induce the Company to enter in this LOI, and the Company further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable against the Company and each of its affiliates under applicable law.

3

9. Miscellaneous. This LOI supersedes any prior written or oral understanding or agreements between the Parties related to the subject matter hereof (other than the NDA). This LOI may be amended, modified or supplemented only by written agreement of the Parties. The headings set forth in this LOI are for convenience of reference only and shall not be used in interpreting this LOI. In this LOI, the term: (x) “including” and “include” mean including without limiting the generality of any description preceding or following such term and shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation;” (y) “person” shall refer to any individual, corporation, partnership, trust, limited liability company or other entity or association, including any governmental or regulatory body, whether acting in an individual, fiduciary or any other capacity; and (z) “affiliate” shall mean, with respect to any specified person, any other person or group of persons acting together that, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries controls, is controlled by or is under common control with such specified person. This LOI may be executed in any number of counterparts (including by facsimile, pdf or other electronic document transmission), each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Counterparts may be delivered via facsimile, electronic mail (including via www.docusign.com, PDF and any other electronic signature covered by the U.S. Federal ESIGN Act of 2000, Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the Electronic Signatures and Records Act or other applicable law) or other transmission method and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes.

10. Conflict of Interest Disclosure. The Public Entity is not prohibited from pursuing an initial business combination with a company that is affiliated with our sponsor, officers or directors. As known to the Company, Dato’ Larry Gan Nyap Liou is the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Public Entity and the Chairman of the Board of Advisors of the Company and therefore has a potential conflict of interest. To address this potential conflict of interest, Dato’ Larry Gan Nyap Liou has recused himself from deliberations and voting as a board member of Public Entity on the Proposed Transaction. The Board of Directors of the Public Entity will obtain a fairness opinion from an independent fairness opinion provider. Public Entity will take all steps necessary in disclosing and addressing this potential conflict of interest in accordance with Exchange Act Section 13(d) and Rule 13d-1 thereunder and any other applicable rules and regulations.

Exhibit A

Term Sheet

This Term Sheet is solely for discussion purposes and does not create a binding obligation on either Party to consummate or negotiate the contemplated transactions, and any such obligation will be created only by the execution and delivery of the Definitive Agreements, the provisions of which will supersede this Term Sheet and all other understandings between the Parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all terms and conditions contained in this Term Sheet are subject to further refinement and detail as the Parties shall mutually agree, as shall be set forth in the Definitive Agreements. All capitalized terms used in this Term Sheet and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the letter of intent to which this Term Sheet is attached.

The legal transaction structure (including any pre-closing reorganization) will be determined by the Parties based on business, legal, tax, accounting and other considerations (and, in the event the transaction structure results in a person other than the Public Entity being the parent listed company, references in this term sheet to the Public Entity will be deemed to mean such new parent company, as applicable).
Transaction Consideration:	The total consideration provided to the Company’s equity holders (including holders of stock options) (the “Existing Equity holders”) in the Business Combination will be $600,000,000.00 or such other amount as agreed to by the Parties and confirmed by the independent fairness opinion provider, and approved by the board of Public Entity (the “Transaction Consideration”), calculated on a cash-free, debt-free basis and assuming normalized levels of working capital.
Equity Financing:	The Public Entity raised $86.25 million in its IPO in January 2022, of which             $52,352,206.44 remains in the Trust Account after redemptions at a stockholders proxy meeting on April 19, 2023. The Public Entity may also seek to raise additional equity financing from PIPE investors, the amount to be agreed. The PIPE financing, if required, will be discussed at the time the Business Combination Agreement is signed, and will close contingent upon and immediately prior to the Closing.
Company Loans:	Company has agreed to loan Public Entity’s sponsor up to $1,500,000 subject to terms contained in a promissory note. The Company will loan $200,000 at the signing of the LOI and an additional $800,000 at the signing of the BCA. In addition, in order to finance any further extensions in connection with the Proposed Transaction, Company shall at its discretion loan funds as may be required up to another $500,000. All such loans are non-interest bearing and unsecured.

[Signature Page to Letter of Intent]

Business Combination Agreement: The obligations of the Parties will be subject to execution of the Business Combination Agreement containing terms and conditions mutually satisfactory to the Public Entity and the Company.

(iii)	Delivery of the PCAOB audited financial statements by the Company by the Signing Date, and if these are to be delivered at a later date, mutually agreed timeframes to be stated in the Business Combination Agreement.
(iv)	The receipt by the Public Entity of a fairness opinion issued by a reputable firm opining that the Business Combination is fair to the Public Entity’s shareholders.

Dated as of July 6, 2023

New York, New York

DUET Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Maker”), promises to pay to the order of DUET Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, or its registered assigns or successors in interest (the “Payee”), the principal sum of One Million Five Hundred Thousand ($1,500,000.00), in lawful money of the United States of America, on the terms and conditions described below. All payments on this Note shall be made by check or wire transfer of immediately available funds, without setoff or counterclaim, to such account as the Payee may from time to time designate by written notice in accordance with the provisions of this Note.

1. Maturity. The principal balance of this Note shall be due and payable by the Maker upon the closing of a Repayment/Conversion Trigger Event, as such term is defined below (the “Maturity Date”). The principal balance may be prepaid at any time prior to the Maturity Date without penalty upon written notice by the Maker to the Payee.

(a) Each of the following shall constitute a “Repayment/Conversion Trigger Event”:

(i) the closing of a merger, consolidation or other business combination pursuant to which the Maker acquires an entity for its initial business combination (a “DeSPAC Transaction”); or

(ii) (ii)subject to the terms below, the liquidation of the Maker on or before July 22, 2023 (unless such date is extended by the Maker’s board of directors, at the request of the Payee), or such later liquidation date as may be approved by Maker’s stockholders (a “Liquidation”), that occurs while the Note is outstanding or any time thereafter prior to the repayment of the Note.

Maker shall provide Payee at least ten (10) calendar days’ prior written notice of any Repayment/Conversion Trigger Event, and to the extent applicable, a copy of the material terms and conditions of the DeSPAC Transaction. Under no circumstances whatsoever shall any individual, including, but not limited to, any officer, director, employee or stockholder of the Maker, be obligated personally for any obligations or liabilities of the Maker hereunder.

(b) Form of Repayment. In the event of a Liquidation, all amounts due under this Note shall be repaid in cash. In the event of a DeSPAC Transaction, the Note may be repaid, at the Payee’s discretion, (i) in cash or (ii) in Conversion Units (as defined below), pursuant to Section 16 herein. Absent reasonable prior written notice by Payee to convert any amounts due under this Note into Conversion Units pursuant to Section 16 herein, the Note shall become due and payable in cash at closing of such DeSPAC Transaction.

2. Interest. No interest shall accrue or be charged by Payee on the unpaid principal balance of this Note.

3. Application of Payments. All payments shall be applied first to payment in full of any costs incurred in the collection of any sum due under this Note, including (without limitation) reasonable attorneys’ fees, then to the payment in full of any late charges, and finally to the reduction of the unpaid principal balance of this Note.

4. Drawdown Requests. Maker and Payee agree that Maker may request from time to time certain sums up to One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000.00) for costs reasonably related to Maker’s consummation of an initial business combination and for working capital purposes. The principal of this Note may be drawn down from time to time until the date on which Maker consummates its initial business combination, upon written request from Maker to Payee (each, a “Drawdown Request”). Each Drawdown Request must state the amount to be drawn down, and must be in multiples of not less than Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) unless agreed upon by Maker and Payee. Payee, in its sole discretion, shall fund each Drawdown Request no later than five (5) business days after receipt of a Drawdown Request; provided, however, that the maximum amount of drawdowns collectively under this Note shall not exceed One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000.00). Once an amount is drawn down under this Note, it shall not be available for future Drawdown Requests even if prepaid. Except as set forth herein, no fees, payments or other amounts shall be due to Payee in connection with, or as a result of, any Drawdown Request by Maker.

5. Events of Default. The following shall constitute an event of default (“Event of Default”):

(a) Failure to Make Required Payments. Failure by Maker to pay any principal amount due (including, but not limited to, by way of the issuance of Conversion Units in accordance with the terms of this Note) pursuant to this Note within five (5) business days of the Maturity Date.

(b) Voluntary Bankruptcy, Etc. The commencement by Maker of a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, rehabilitation or other similar law, or the consent by it to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator (or other similar official) of Maker or for any substantial part of its property, or the making by it of any assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the failure of Maker generally to pay its debts as such debts become due, or the taking of corporate action by Maker in furtherance of any of the foregoing.

(c) Involuntary Bankruptcy, Etc. The entry of a decree or order for relief by a court having competent jurisdiction in respect of Maker in an involuntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator (or similar official) of Maker or for any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days.

6. Remedies.

(a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 5(a) hereof, Payee may, by written notice to Maker, declare this Note to be due immediately and payable, whereupon the unpaid principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts payable hereunder, shall become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, anything contained herein or in the documents evidencing the same to the contrary notwithstanding.

(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Sections 5(b) and 5(c), the unpaid principal balance of this Note, and all other sums payable with regard to this Note, shall automatically and immediately become due and payable, in all cases without any action on the part of Payee.

7. Enforcement Costs. In case any principal of this Note is not paid when due, including (without limitation) by way of the issuance of Conversion Units in accordance with the terms of this Note, Maker shall be liable for all costs of enforcement and collection of this Note incurred by the Payee and any other Holders, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses.

8. Waivers. Maker and all endorsers and guarantors of, and sureties for, this Note waive presentment for payment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest, and notice of protest with regard to the Note, all errors, defects and imperfections in any proceedings instituted by Payee under the terms of this Note, and all benefits that might accrue to Maker by virtue of any present or future laws exempting any property, real or personal, or any part of the proceeds arising from any sale of any such property, from attachment, levy or sale under execution, or providing for any stay of execution, exemption from civil process, or extension of time for payment; and Maker agrees that any real estate that may be levied upon pursuant to a judgment obtained by virtue hereof or any writ of execution issued hereon, may be sold upon any such writ in whole or in part in any order desired by Payee.

Maker hereby waives all notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default, or enforcement of the payment of this Note, and agrees that its liability shall be unconditional, without regard to the liability of any other party, and shall not be affected in any manner by any indulgence, extension of time, renewal, waiver or modification granted or consented to by Payee, and consents to any and all extensions of time, renewals, waivers, or modifications that may be granted by Payee with respect to the payment or other provisions of this Note, and agrees that additional makers, endorsers, guarantors, or sureties may become parties hereto without notice to Maker or affecting Maker’s liability hereunder. Any failure of the Payee to exercise any right hereunder shall not be construed as a waiver of the right to exercise the same or any other right at any time and from time to time thereafter. The Payee may accept late payments, or partial payments, even though marked “payment in full” or containing words of similar import or other conditions, without waiving any of its rights.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains certain statements that may be deemed to be “forward-looking statements” within the federal securities laws, including the safe harbor provisions under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements that are not historical are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements relate to future events or our future performance or future financial condition. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our company, our industry, our beliefs and our assumptions. Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our or our management team’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.
