(“LOF II”) and Life Sciences Opportunities Fund II (Institutional) L.P. (“LOF Institutional” and together with LOF II, the “Purchasers”) pursuant to which it issued Convertible Promissory Notes (the “Notes”) and warrants to purchase Common Stock (the “Warrants”).  Pursuant to the Agreements, Bioject sold a Note in the principal amount of $91,104 to LOF II and a Note in the principal amount of $508,896 to LOF Institutional. The Notes bear interest at the rate of 8% per annum with all principal and interest due May 15, 2009 and may not be prepaid without the written consent of the Purchaser holding a given Note. The Notes are convertible at any time by the Purchasers into Bioject’s common stock at the rate of $0.75 per share. The Notes will be automatically converted upon a qualified financing, as defined in the Agreement, at a price equal to the financing price.

 

The Warrants are exercisable for an aggregate of 80,000 shares of Bioject’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.75 per share. Each Warrant is immediately exercisable and expires four years from the date of issuance.

 

The Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with each Purchaser granting piggy-back registration rights.

AGREEMENT

 

In consideration of the mutual promises contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement agree as follows:

 

1.                                      Purchase and Sale of Notes and Warrants.

2.                                      Stock Purchase Agreement.

 

(a)                                 Purchaser understands and agrees that the conversion of the Note into equity securities of the Company may require such Purchaser’s execution of certain agreements (in form reasonably agreeable to a majority in interest of the Purchasers) relating to the purchase and sale of such securities as well as registration, information and voting rights, if any, relating to such equity securities.

 



 

(b)                                 Purchaser agrees to be bound by the agreements described in Section 2(a).

 

3.                                      Representations and Warranties of the Company.  The Company hereby represents and warrants to each Purchaser that:

The Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Note and the Warrant, when executed and delivered by the Company, shall constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms except as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies.

 

(c)                                  Governmental Consents.  All consents, approvals, orders or authorizations of, or registrations, qualifications, designations, declarations or filings with, any governmental authority, required on the part of the Company in connection with the valid execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the offer, sale or issuance of the Note, the Warrant, conversion of the Note, exercise of the Warrant or the consummation of any other transaction contemplated hereby shall have been obtained and will be effective at the Closing, except for notices required or permitted to be filed with certain state and federal securities commissions, which notices will be filed on a timely basis.

 

(d)                                 Offering.  Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Purchasers contained in Section 4 hereof, the offer, issue and sale of the Notes and the Warrant are and will be exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and have been registered or qualified (or are exempt from registration and qualification) under the registration, permit or qualification requirements of all applicable state securities laws.

 

(e)                                  SEC Documents; Financial Statements.  As of the Closing, the Company shall have filed all reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by it with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) pursuant to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”) (all of the foregoing filed prior to the date hereof and all exhibits included therein and financial statements and schedules thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein being hereinafter referred to as the “SEC Documents”).  As of their respective dates, the SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to the SEC Documents, and none of the SEC Documents, at the time they were filed with the SEC, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.  As of their respective dates, the financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Documents complied as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto.  Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, during the periods involved (except in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may exclude footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements) and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Company as of the dates thereof and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments).  No other information provided by or on behalf of the Company to the Purchaser which is not included in the SEC Documents contains any untrue statement of a material fact or

(a)                                 Authorization.  The Purchaser has the full right, power and authority to enter into and perform the Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement, and this Agreement when executed and delivered by the Purchaser will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, subject to the laws of general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency and the relief of debtors, rules of law governing specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.

 

(b)                                 Purchase Entirely for Own Account.  The Securities to be acquired by the Purchaser will be acquired for investment for the Purchaser’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and the Purchaser has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same.  The Purchaser is not an entity formed for the specific purpose of acquiring any of the Securities.

(d)                                 Restricted Securities.  The Purchaser understands that the Securities have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act, by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Purchaser’s representations as expressed herein.  The Purchaser understands that the Securities are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, the Purchaser must hold the Securities indefinitely unless they are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available.  The Purchaser further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Securities, and on requirements relating to the Company which are outside of the Purchaser’s control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy.

 

(e)                                  Legends.  The Purchaser understands that the Securities, and any securities issued in respect thereof or exchange therefor, may bear one or all of the following legends:

(ii)                                  “THIS WARRANT, AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE PURSUANT TO AN EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT, HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”).  THIS WARRANT, AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE PURSUANT TO AN EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT, HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED WITHOUT A VIEW TO DISTRIBUTION AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THIS WARRANT, OR FOR THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE PURSUANT TO AN EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT, AS THE CASE MAY BE,

(e)                                  Notices.  Any notice required or permitted by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed sufficient upon receipt, when delivered personally or by courier, overnight delivery service or confirmed facsimile, or forty-eight (48) hours after being deposited in the U.S. mail as certified or registered mail with postage prepaid, if such notice is addressed to the party to be notified at such party’s address or facsimile number as set forth below or as subsequently modified by written notice.

1.2          Fractional Shares.  No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon exercise of this Warrant. Instead of any fractional shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such fractional interest equal to the fair market value of such fractional interest as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.

 

1.3          Purchase of Warrants by the Company.  The Company shall have the right, except as limited by law, other agreement, or herein, to purchase or otherwise acquire Warrants at such time, in such manner, and for such consideration as it may deem appropriate.

 

1.4          Cancellation of Warrants.  In the event the Company shall purchase or otherwise acquire the Warrants, the same shall thereupon be cancelled by it and retired.

 

ARTICLE II

WARRANT OFFICE; TRANSFER

 

2.1          Warrant Office.  The Company shall maintain an office for certain purposes specified herein (the “Warrant Office”), which office shall initially be the Company’s office at 20245 S.W. 95th Avenue, Tualatin, Oregon 97062, and may subsequently be such other office of the Company or of any transfer agent of the Common Stock in the continental United States of which written notice has previously been given to the Registered Holder.  The Company shall maintain, at the Warrant Office, a register for the Warrant in which the Company shall record the name and address of the Registered Holder, as well as the name and address of each permitted assignee of the rights of the Registered Holder.

 

2.2          Ownership of Warrant.  The Company may deem and treat the Registered Holder as the holder and owner hereof (notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing hereon made by anyone other than the Company) for all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary, until presentation of this Warrant for registration of transfer as provided in this Article II.

 

2.3          Transfer of Warrants.  The Company agrees to maintain at the Warrant Office books for the registration and transfer of this Warrant.  Subject to the restrictions on transfer of Warrants in Section 2.8, the Company, from time to time, shall register the transfer of this Warrant in such books upon surrender of this Warrant at the Warrant Office, properly endorsed, together with a written assignment of this Warrant, substantially in the form of the Assignment attached as Exhibit B hereto. Upon any such transfer, a new Warrant shall be issued to the transferee, and the Company shall cancel the surrendered Warrant.  The Registered Holder shall pay all taxes and all other expenses and charges payable in connection with the transfer of Warrants pursuant to this Section 2.3.

 

2.4          Acknowledgement of Rights.  The Company will, at the time of exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms hereof, upon request of the Registered Holder, acknowledge in writing its continuing obligation to afford to such holder any rights to which such holder shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant, provided that if the holder of this Warrant shall fail to make any such request, such failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Company to afford to such holder any such rights.

 

2.5          No Rights as Shareholder Until Exercise.  This Warrant does not entitle the Registered Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof.  Upon the surrender of this Warrant and the payment of the aggregate Exercise Price, the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be and be deemed to be issued to the Registered Holder as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the Exercise Date.

2.6          Expenses of Delivery of Warrants.  Except as provided in Section 2.3 above, the Company shall pay all reasonable expenses, taxes (other than transfer taxes), and other charges payable in connection with the preparation, issuance and delivery of Warrants and related Warrant Shares hereunder.

 

2.7          Compliance with Securities Laws.  The Registered Holder (and its transferees and assigns), by acceptance of this Warrant, covenants and agrees that such Registered Holder is acquiring the Warrants evidenced hereby, and, upon exercise hereof, the Warrant Shares, for its own account as an investment and not with a view to distribution thereof.  Neither this Warrant nor the Warrant Shares issuable hereunder have been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and no transfer of this Warrant or any Warrant Shares shall be permitted unless the Company has received notice of such transfer in the form of the assignment attached hereto as Exhibit B, accompanied, if requested by the Company, by an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that an exemption from registration of such Warrant or Warrant Shares under the Securities Act is available for such transfer, except that no such opinion shall be required with respect to the Warrant Shares after the registration for resale of the Warrant Shares has become effective if the Warrant Shares are sold pursuant to the registration statement.  Upon any exercise of the Warrants prior to effective registration for resale or except as in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act, certificates representing the Warrant Shares shall bear a restrictive legend substantially identical to that set forth as follows:

 

“The securities represented by this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the securities laws of any state (collectively, the “Acts”).  Neither the shares nor any interest therein may be offered, sold, transferred, pledged, or otherwise disposed of in the absence of an effective registration statement with respect to the shares under all of the applicable Acts, or an opinion of counsel satisfactory to Bioject Medical Technologies Inc. to the effect that such registrations are not required.”

 

(c)           Any purported transfer of the Warrant or Warrant Shares not in compliance with the provisions of this section shall be null and void.  Stop transfer instructions have been or will be imposed with respect to the Warrant Shares so as to restrict resale or other transfer thereof, subject to this Section 2.7.

 

ARTICLE III

ANTI-DILUTION PROVISIONS

 

3.1          Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares.  The Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as hereinafter provided in this Article III.  Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price, except pursuant to Sections 3.1(a)(iii) and (iv), the Registered Holder shall thereafter be entitled to purchase, at the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment, the number of shares of the Common Stock obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of shares of the Common Stock purchasable pursuant hereto immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.

 

(a)           Exercise Price Adjustments.  The Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

 

(i)            Adjustment for Stock Splits and Combinations. If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the date hereof (the “Original Issue Date”) while this Warrant remains outstanding, effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the Exercise Price in effect immediately before such subdivision shall be proportionately decreased.  Conversely, if the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately before such combination shall be proportionately increased.  Any adjustment under this Section 3.1(a)(i) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

 

(ii)           Adjustment for Common Stock Dividends and Distributions.  If the Company, at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date while this Warrant remains outstanding makes, or fixes a

 

3



 

record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock, in each such event the Exercise Price that is then in effect shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such record date is fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Exercise Price then in effect by a fraction (i) the numerator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, and (ii) the denominator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution; provided, however, that if such record date is fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Exercise Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date, and thereafter the Exercise Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section 3.1(a)(ii) to reflect the actual payment of such dividend or distribution.

 

(iii)          Adjustment for Reclassification, Exchange, and Substitution.  If at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date while this Warrant remains outstanding, the Common Stock is changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by recapitalization, reclassification, or otherwise (other than an Acquisition, Asset Transfer, subdivision or combination of shares, stock dividend, reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale of assets provided for elsewhere in this Section 3.1(a)), in any such event the Registered Holder shall have the right thereafter to convert such stock into the kind and amount of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such recapitalization, reclassification or other change by holders of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Common Stock could have been converted immediately prior to such recapitalization, reclassification or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein or with respect to such other securities or property by the terms thereof.

 

(iv)          Reorganizations, Mergers, Consolidations, or Sales of Assets.  If at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date while this Warrant remains outstanding, there is a capital reorganization of the Company, an Acquisition, an Asset Transfer (other than a recapitalization, or subdivision, combination, reclassification, exchange, or substitution of shares provided for elsewhere in this Section 3.1(a)), as a part of such capital reorganization, Acquisition, or Asset Transfer, provision shall be made so that the Registered Holder shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon exercise hereof the number of shares of stock or other securities or property to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise immediately prior to such event would have been entitled as a result of such capital reorganization, subject to adjustment in respect of such stock or securities by the terms thereof.  In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 3.1(a) with respect to the rights of the Registered Holder after the capital reorganization, Acquisition, or Asset Transfer to the end that the provisions of this Section 3.1(a) (including adjustment of the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon exercise) shall be applicable after that event and be as nearly equivalent as practicable.

 

(v)           Distributions of Securities.  In case of any distribution of any security (including rights or warrants to subscribe for any such securities) of the Company (except Common Stock), evidences of its indebtedness, cash, or other assets to all of the holders of its Common Stock, then in each such case the Exercise Price in effect thereafter shall be determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior thereto by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock multiplied by the Current Market Price on the record date mentioned below, less the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors) of the securities, evidences of indebtedness, cash, or other assets distributed by the Company, and the denominator of which shall be the total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock multiplied by the Current Market Price; such adjustment shall become effective as of the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution. The subdivision or combination of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant at any time outstanding into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock shall not be deemed to be a reclassification of the Common Stock of the Company of this clause (v).

 

(vi)          Rounding of Calculations; Minimum Adjustment.  All calculations under this Section 3.1(a) and under Section 3.1(b) shall be made to the nearest cent.  Any provision of this Section 3.1 to the contrary notwithstanding, no adjustment in the Exercise Price shall be made if the amount of such adjustment would be less than one percent, but any such amount shall be carried forward and an adjustment with respect thereto shall

 

4



 

be made at the time of and together with any subsequent adjustment which, together with such amount and any other amount or amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate one percent or more.

 

(vii)         Timing of Issuance of Additional Common Stock Upon Certain Adjustments.  In any case in which the provisions of this Section 3.1(a) shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event, the Company may defer until the occurrence of such event issuing to the Registered Holder after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional shares of Common Stock or other property issuable or deliverable upon exercise by reason of the adjustment required by such event over and above the shares of Common Stock or other property issuable or deliverable upon such exercise before giving effect to such adjustment; provided, however, that the Company upon request shall deliver to such Registered Holder a due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing such Registered Holder’s right to receive such additional shares or other property, and such cash, upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment.

 

(b)           Statement Regarding Adjustments.  Whenever the Exercise Price shall be adjusted as provided in Section 3.1(a), and upon each change in the number of shares of the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall forthwith file, at the office of any transfer agent for this Warrant and at the principal office of the Company, a statement showing in detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the Exercise Price and new number of shares issuable that shall be in effect after such adjustment, and the Company shall also cause a copy of such statement to be given to the Registered Holder.  Each such statement shall be signed by the Company’s chief financial or accounting officer.  Where appropriate, such copy may be given in advance and may be included as part of a notice required to be mailed under the provisions of Section 3.1(c).

 

(c)           Notice to Holders.  In the event the Company shall propose to take any action of the type described in clause (iii) or (iv) of Section 3.1(a), the Company shall give notice to the Registered Holder, in the manner set forth in Section 6.6, which notice shall specify the record date, if any, with respect to any such action and the approximate date on which such action is to take place.  Such notice shall also set forth such facts with respect thereto as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect of such action (to the extent such effect may be known at the date of such notice) on the Exercise Price and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant.  In the case of any action which would require the fixing of a record date, such notice shall be given at least 10 days prior to the date so fixed, and in case of all other action, such notice shall be given at least 15 days prior to the taking of such proposed action.  Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of any such action.

 

3.2          Costs.  The Registered Holder shall pay all documentary, stamp, transfer or other transactional taxes attributable to the issuance or delivery of the Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant.  Additionally, the Company shall not be required to pay any taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any certificate for such Warrant Shares.  The Registered Holder shall reimburse the Company for any such taxes assessed against the Company.

 

3.3          Reservations of Shares.  The Company shall reserve at all times so long as this Warrant remains outstanding, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of this Warrant, sufficient shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise hereof.

 

3.4          Valid Issuance.  All shares of Common Stock which may be issued upon exercise of this Warrant will upon issuance by the Company be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof attributable to any act or omission by the Company, and the Company shall take no action which will cause a contrary result (including without limitation, any action which would cause the Exercise Price to be less than the par value, if any, of the Common Stock).

Tualatin, Oregon

 

 

As of December 5, 2007

 

For value received, Bioject Medical Technologies Inc., an Oregon corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay to                                     (the “Holder”) the principal sum of                                                          dollars ($                      ), together with interest thereon as set forth herein (this “Note”).

 

The following is a statement of the rights of the Holder and the conditions to which this Note is subject, and to which the Holder, by the acceptance of this Note, agrees:

 

1.                                      Payment Terms.  The unpaid principal balance from time to time outstanding under this Note shall bear interest at the rate of 8% per annum.  The outstanding principal balance of and accrued but unpaid interest under this Note shall be repaid by the Company on or before May 15, 2009 (the “Maturity Date”) unless prepaid pursuant to the terms hereof.  Except as otherwise provided herein, both principal and interest shall be payable on the Maturity Date in lawful money of the United States of America to the Holder at its offices in 20245 S.W. 95th Ave., Tualatin, OR 97062 (or at such other location as shall be designated by the Holder in a written notice to the Company), in same day funds.

 

2.                                      Events of Default.  If any of the events specified in this Section 2 shall occur (herein individually referred to as an “Event of Default”), the Holder of the Note may, so long as such condition exists, declare the entire principal and unpaid accrued interest hereon immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived:

 

(a)                                 Default in the payment of the principal and unpaid accrued interest of this Note when due and payable if such default is not cured by the Company within ten (10) business days after the Holder has given the Company written notice of such default; or

 

(b)                                 Any breach by the Company of any representation, warranty, or covenant in this Note; provided, that, in the event of any such breach, to the extent such breach is susceptible to cure, such breach shall not have been cured by the Company within ten (10) business days after written notice to the Company of such breach; or

 

(c)                                  The Company shall (i) apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or custodian of itself or of all or a substantial part of its property, (ii) make a general assignment for the benefit of its or any of its creditors, (iii) be dissolved or liquidated in full or in part, (iv) commence a voluntary case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to itself or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or consent to any such relief or to the

 



 

appointment of or taking possession of its property by any official in an involuntary case or other proceeding commenced against it or (v) take any action for the purpose of effecting any of the foregoing; or

 

(d)                                 Proceedings for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or custodian of the Company or of all or a substantial part of the property thereof, or an involuntary case or other proceedings seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to the Company or the debts thereof under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect shall be commenced and an order for relief entered, or such case or proceeding shall not be dismissed, discharged or stayed within 60 days of commencement.

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if any of the events described in Sections 2(c) or (d) occur, this Note shall be automatically accelerated and the entire principal and unpaid accrued interest thereon shall immediately become due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived.

 

3.                                      Prepayment.  Prior to the Maturity Date, this Note may not be prepaid except with the written consent of Holder.

 

4.                                      Conversion.
