(iii) Delivery of the Conversion Consideration. The Company will pay or deliver, as applicable, the Conversion Consideration due upon the conversion of this Note to the Holder on or before the second (2nd) Business Day (or, if earlier, the standard settlement period for the primary Eligible Exchange (measured in terms of trading volume for its Common Stock) on which the Common Stock is traded) immediately after the Conversion Date for such conversion (the “Conversion Settlement Date”).

(iv) Company Failure to Timely Deliver Stock Payments. If (x) the Company shall fail for any reason or for no reason on or prior to the applicable Conversion Settlement Date to deliver shares of Common Stock in accordance with Section 5(C) (such shares to which Holder is entitled referred to as the “Undelivered Shares”); and (y) the Holder (whether directly or indirectly, including by any broker acting on the Holder’s behalf or acting with respect to such Undelivered Shares) purchases any shares of Common Stock

23

(whether in the open market or otherwise) to cover any such Undelivered Shares (whether to satisfy any settlement obligations with respect thereto of the Holder or otherwise), then, without limiting the Holder’s right to pursue any other remedy available to it (whether hereunder, under applicable law or otherwise), the Holder will have the right, exercisable by notice to the Company, to cause the Company to either:

(1) pay, on or before the second (2nd) Business Day after the date such notice is delivered, cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price (including any brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket costs) incurred to purchase such shares (such aggregate purchase price, the “Covering Price”); or

(2) promptly deliver, to the Holder, such Undelivered Shares in accordance with this Note, together with cash in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Covering Price over the product of (x) the number of such Undelivered Shares; and (y) the Daily VWAP per share of Common Stock on the applicable Conversion Date relating to such conversion.

To exercise such right, the Holder must deliver notice of such exercise to the Company, specifying whether the Holder has elected clause (1) or (2) above to apply. If the Holder has elected clause (1) to apply, then the Company’s obligation to deliver the Undelivered Shares in accordance with this Note will be deemed to have been satisfied and discharged to the extent the Company has paid the Covering Price in accordance with clause (1). Nothing herein shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver shares of Common Stock as required pursuant to the terms hereof. In addition to the foregoing, if the Company fails for any reason to deliver Common Stock to the Holder by the applicable Conversion Settlement Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each one thousand dollars ($1,000) of Undelivered Shares (based on the Daily VWAP on the applicable Conversion Settlement Date), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after the Conversion Settlement Date until the cash amount set forth in Section 5(E)(iv)(1) is paid to the Holder or the shares of Common Stock are delivered to the Holder pursuant to Section 5(E)(iv)(2).

(v) Effect of Conversion. If this Note is converted in full, then, from and after the date the Conversion Consideration therefor is issued or delivered in settlement of such conversion, the Principal Amount of this Note will cease to be outstanding and all interest will cease to accrue on this Note.

(vi) .

(F) Common Stock Issued upon Conversion. Each share of Common Stock delivered pursuant to this Note will be a newly issued or treasury share and will be duly and validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable, free from preemptive rights and free of any Lien or adverse claim (except to the extent of any Lien or adverse claim created by the action or inaction of the Holder or the Person to whom such share will be delivered). If the

24

Common Stock is then listed on any securities exchange, or quoted on any inter-dealer quotation system, then the Company will cause each share of Common Stock issued pursuant to this Note, when delivered, to be admitted for listing on such exchange or quotation on such system. Any shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to this Note will be issued in the form of book-entries at the facilities of DTC, identified therein by an “unrestricted” CUSIP number.

(G) Adjustments to the Conversion Rate.

(i) Events Requiring an Adjustment to the Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate will be adjusted from time to time as follows:

(1) Stock Dividends, Splits and Combinations. If the Company issues solely shares of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on all or substantially all shares of the Common Stock, or if the Company effects a stock split or a stock combination of the Common Stock (in each case excluding an issuance solely pursuant to a Common Stock Change Event, as to which Section 5(I) will apply), then the Conversion Rate will be adjusted based on the following formula:

If any dividend, distribution, stock split or stock combination of the type described in this Section 5(G)(i)(1) is declared or announced, but not so paid or made, then the Conversion Rate will be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution or to effect such stock split or stock combination, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had such dividend, distribution, stock split or stock combination not been declared or announced.

25

(2) Rights, Options and Warrants. If the Company distributes, to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock, rights, options or warrants (other than rights issued or otherwise distributed pursuant to a stockholder rights plan, as to which the provisions set forth in Section 5(G)(v) will apply) entitling such holders, for a period of not more than sixty (60) calendar days after the record date of such distribution, to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date such distribution is announced, then the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants (including as a result of such rights, options or warrants not being exercised), the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase to the Conversion Rate for such distribution been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered upon exercise of such rights, option or warrants. To the extent such rights, options or warrants are not so distributed, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the Ex-Dividend Date for the distribution of such rights, options or warrants not occurred.

26

For purposes of this Section 5(G)(i)(2), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle holders of Common Stock to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date the distribution of such rights, options or warrants is announced, and in determining the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, there will be taken into account any consideration the Company receives for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise thereof, with the value of such consideration, if not cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors in good faith.

(3) Spin-Offs and Other Distributed Property.

(a) Distributions Other than Spin-Offs. If the Company distributes shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness or other assets or property of the Company, or rights, options or warrants to acquire Capital Stock of the Company or other securities, to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, excluding:

(v) dividends, distributions, rights, options or warrants for which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate is required pursuant to Section 5(G)(i)(1) or Section 5(G)(i)(2);

(w) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash for which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate is required pursuant to Section 5(G)(i)(4);

(x) rights issued or otherwise distributed pursuant to a stockholder rights plan, except to the extent provided in Section 5(G)(v);

(y) Spin-Offs for which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate is required pursuant to Section 5(G)(i)(3)(b); and

(z) a distribution solely pursuant to a Common Stock Change Event, as to which Section 5(I) will apply,

27

then the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

provided, however, that if FMV is equal to or greater than SP, then, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment to the Conversion Rate, the Holder will receive, for each $1,000 Principal Amount of this Note held by this Holder on the record date for such distribution, at the same time and on the same terms as holders of Common Stock, the amount and kind of shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets, property, rights, options or warrants that such Holder would have received if such Holder had owned, on such record date, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on such record date.

To the extent such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the adjustment been made on the basis of only the distribution, if any, actually made or paid.

(b) Spin-Offs. If the Company distributes or dividends shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to an Affiliate, a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Company to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock (other than solely pursuant to a Common Stock Change Event, as to which Section 5(I) will apply), and such Capital Stock or equity interest is listed or quoted (or will be listed or quoted upon the consummation of the transaction) on a U.S. national securities exchange (a “Spin-Off”), then the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

28

The adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 5(G)(i)(3)(b) will be calculated as of the Close of Business on the last Trading Day of the Spin-Off Valuation Period but will be given effect immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for the Spin-Off, with retroactive effect. If a Note is converted and the Conversion Date occurs during the Spin-Off Valuation Period, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, the Company will, if necessary, delay the settlement of such conversion until the second (2nd) Business Day (or, if earlier, the standard settlement period for the primary Eligible Exchange (measured in terms of trading volume for its Common Stock) on which the Common Stock is traded) after the last day of the Spin-Off Valuation Period.

To the extent any dividend or distribution of the type set forth in this Section 5(G)(i)(3)(b) is declared but not made or paid, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the adjustment been made on the basis of only the dividend or distribution, if any, actually made or paid.

29

(4) Cash Dividends or Distributions. If any cash dividend or distribution is made to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock, then the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

provided, however, that if D is equal to or greater than SP, then, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment to the Conversion Rate, the Holder will receive, for each $1,000 Principal Amount of this Note held by the Holder on the record date for such dividend or distribution, at the same time and on the same terms as holders of Common Stock, the amount of cash that such Holder would have received if such Holder had owned, on such record date, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on such record date.

To the extent such dividend or distribution is declared but not made or paid, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the adjustment been made on the basis of only the dividend or distribution, if any, actually made or paid.

(5) Tender Offers or Exchange Offers. If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries makes a payment in respect of a tender offer or exchange offer for shares of Common Stock (other than solely pursuant to an odd-lot tender offer pursuant to Rule 13e-4(h)(5) under the Exchange Act), and the value (determined as of the Expiration Time by the Board of Directors in good faith) of the cash and other consideration paid per share of Common Stock in such tender or exchange offer exceeds the Last Reported Sale Price per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately after the last date (the “Expiration Date”) on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (as it may be amended), then the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

30

provided, however, that the Conversion Rate will in no event be adjusted down pursuant to this Section 5(G)(i)(5), except to the extent provided in the immediately following paragraph. The adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 5(G)(i)(5) will be calculated as of the Close of Business on the last Trading Day of the Tender/Exchange Offer Valuation Period but will be given effect immediately after the Expiration Time, with retroactive effect. If a Note is converted and the Conversion Date occurs on the Expiration Date or during the Tender/Exchange Offer Valuation Period, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, the Company will, if necessary, delay the settlement of such conversion until the second (2nd) Business Day (or, if earlier, the standard settlement period for the primary Eligible Exchange (measured in terms of trading volume for its Common Stock) on which the Common Stock is traded) after the last day of the Tender/Exchange Offer Valuation Period.

To the extent such tender or exchange offer is announced but not consummated (including as a result of the Company being precluded from consummating such tender or exchange offer under applicable law), or any purchases or exchanges of shares of Common Stock in such tender or exchange offer are rescinded, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the adjustment been made on the basis of only the purchases or exchanges of shares of Common Stock, if any, actually made, and not rescinded, in such tender or exchange offer.

31

(ii) No Adjustments in Certain Cases.

(1) Where the Holder Participates in the Transaction or Event Without Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5(G)(i), the Company will not be obligated to adjust the Conversion Rate on account of a transaction or other event otherwise requiring an adjustment pursuant to Section 5(G)(i) (other than a stock split or combination of the type set forth in Section 5(G)(i)(1) or a tender or exchange offer of the type set forth in Section 5(G)(i)(5)) if the Holder participates, at the same time and on the same terms as holders of Common Stock, and solely by virtue of being the Holder of this Note, in such transaction or event without having to convert this Note and as if the Holder held a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the Conversion Rate in effect on the related record date; and (ii) the aggregate Principal Amount (expressed in thousands) of this Note held by this Holder on such date.

(2) Certain Events. The Company will not be required to adjust the Conversion Rate except as provided in Section 5(G) and Section 5(I). Without limiting the foregoing, the Company will not be obligated to adjust the Conversion Rate on account of:

(a) except as otherwise provided in Section 5(G), the sale of shares of Common Stock for a purchase price that is less than the market price per share of Common Stock or less than the Conversion Price;

(b) the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on the Company’s securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any such plan;

(c) the issuance of any shares of Common Stock, restricted stock or options or rights to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of, or assumed by, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;

(d) the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or convertible or exchangeable security of the Company outstanding as of the Initial Closing Date (other than an adjustment pursuant to Section 5(G)(i)(3)(a) in connection with the separation of rights under the Company’s stockholder rights plan existing, if any, as of the Initial Closing Date);

(e) repurchases of shares of Common Stock, including structured or derivative transactions, that are not pursuant to a tender offer as contemplated by Section 5(G)(i)(5);

(f) solely a change in the par value of the Common Stock; or

32

(g) accrued and unpaid interest on this Note.

(iii) Adjustments Not Yet Effective. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, if:

(1) this Note is to be converted;

(2) the record date, effective date or Expiration Time for any event that requires an adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 5(G)(i) has occurred on or before the Conversion Date for such conversion, but an adjustment to the Conversion Rate for such event has not yet become effective as of such Conversion Date;

(3) the Conversion Consideration due upon such conversion includes any whole shares of Common Stock; and

(4) such shares are not entitled to participate in such event (because they were not held on the related record date or otherwise),

then, solely for purposes of such conversion, the Company will, without duplication, give effect to such adjustment on such Conversion Date. In such case, if the date on which the Company is otherwise required to deliver the consideration due upon such conversion is before the first date on which the amount of such adjustment can be determined, then the Company will delay the settlement of such conversion until the second (2nd) Business Day (or, if earlier, the standard settlement period for the primary Eligible Exchange (measured in terms of trading volume for its Common Stock) on which the Common Stock is traded) after such first date.

(iv) Conversion Rate Adjustments where the Converting Holder Participates in the Relevant Transaction or Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, if:

(1) a Conversion Rate adjustment for any dividend or distribution becomes effective on any Ex-Dividend Date pursuant to Section 5(G)(i);

(2) a Note is to be converted;

(3) the Conversion Date for such conversion occurs on or after such Ex-Dividend Date and on or before the related record date;

(4) the Conversion Consideration due upon such conversion includes any whole shares of Common Stock based on a Conversion Rate that is adjusted for such dividend or distribution; and

(5) such shares would be entitled to participate in such dividend or distribution (including pursuant to Section 5(C)(ii)),

33

then (x) such Conversion Rate adjustment will not be given effect for such conversion; (y) the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion based on such unadjusted Conversion Rate will not be entitled to participate in such dividend or distribution; and (z) there will be added, to the Conversion Consideration otherwise due upon such conversion, the same kind and amount of consideration that would have been delivered in such dividend or distribution with respect to such shares of Common Stock had such shares been entitled to participate in such dividend or distribution.

(v) Stockholder Rights Plans. If any shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon conversion of any Note and, at the time of such conversion, the Company has in effect any stockholder rights plan, then the Holder of such Note will be entitled to receive, in addition to, and concurrently with the delivery of, the Conversion Consideration otherwise payable under this Note upon such conversion, the rights set forth in such stockholder rights plan, unless such rights have separated from the Common Stock at such time, in which case, and only in such case, the Conversion Rate will be adjusted pursuant to Section 5(G)(i)(3)(a) on account of such separation as if, at the time of such separation, the Company had made a distribution of the type referred to in such Section to all holders of the Common Stock, subject to readjustment in accordance with such Section if such rights expire, terminate or are redeemed.

(vi) Limitation on Effecting Transactions Resulting in Certain Adjustments. The Company will not engage in or be a party to any transaction or event that would require the Conversion Rate to be adjusted pursuant to Section 5(G)(i) or Section 5(I) to an amount that would result in the Conversion Price per share of Common Stock being less than the par value per share of Common Stock.

(vii) Equitable Adjustments to Prices. Whenever any provision of this Note requires the Company to calculate the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices, or any function thereof, over a period of multiple days (including to calculate an adjustment to the Conversion Rate), the Company will make proportionate adjustments, if any, to such calculations to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 5(G)(i) that becomes effective, or any event requiring such an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where the Ex-Dividend Date or effective date, as applicable, of such event occurs, at any time during such period.

(viii) Calculation of Number of Outstanding Shares of Common Stock. For purposes of this Section 5(G), the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time will (i) include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock; and (ii) exclude shares of Common Stock held in the Company’s treasury (unless the Company pays any dividend or makes any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in its treasury).

(ix) Calculations. All calculations with respect to the Conversion Rate and adjustments thereto will be made to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share of Common Stock (with 5/100,000ths rounded upward).

(x) Notice of Conversion Rate Adjustments. Upon the effectiveness of any adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 5(G)(i), the Company will promptly send notice to the Holder containing (i) a brief description of the transaction or other event on account of which such adjustment was made; (ii) the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after such adjustment; and (iii) the effective time of such adjustment.

34

(H) Voluntary Adjustments.

(i) Generally. To the extent permitted by law and applicable stock exchange rules, the Company, from time to time, may (but is not required to) increase the Conversion Rate on any portion of this Note for any period of time by any amount if (i) the Board of Directors determines in good faith that such increase is either (x) in the best interest of the Company; or (y) advisable to avoid or diminish any income tax imposed on holders of Common Stock or rights to purchase Common Stock as a result of any dividend or distribution of shares (or rights to acquire shares) of Common Stock or any similar event and (ii) such increase is irrevocable for the period of time specified by the Board of Directors.

(ii) Notice of Voluntary Increases. If the Board of Directors determines to increase the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 5(H)(i), then, no later than the first Business Day following such determination, the Company will send notice to the Holder of such increase, the amount thereof and the period during which such increase will be in effect.

(I) Effect of Certain Recapitalizations, Reclassifications, Consolidations, Mergers and Sales.

(i) Generally. If there occurs any:

(1) recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Common Stock (other than (x) changes solely resulting from a subdivision or combination of the Common Stock, (y) a change only in par value or from par value to no par value or no par value to par value and (z) stock splits and stock combinations that do not involve the issuance of any other series or class of securities);

(2) consolidation, merger, combination or binding or statutory share exchange involving the Company;

(3) sale, transfer, license, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to any Person; or

(4) other similar event,

and, in each case, as a result of such occurrence, the Common Stock is converted into, or is exchanged for, or represents solely the right to receive, other securities or other property (including cash or any combination of the foregoing) (such an event, a “Common Stock Change Event,” and such other securities or other property, the “Reference Property,” and the amount and kind of Reference Property that a holder of one (1) share of Common Stock would be entitled to receive on account of such Common Stock Change Event (without giving effect to any arrangement not to issue fractional shares of securities or

35

other property), a “Reference Property Unit”), then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, at the effective time of such Common Stock Change Event, (x) the Conversion Consideration due upon conversion of any Note will be determined in the same manner as if each reference to any number of shares of Common Stock in this Section 5 (or in any related definitions) were instead a reference to the same number of Reference Property Units; (y) for purposes of Section 5(A), each reference to any number of shares of Common Stock in such Section (or in any related definitions) will instead be deemed to be a reference to the same number of Reference Property Units; and (z) for purposes of the definition of “Fundamental Change,” the term “Common Stock” and “common equity” will be deemed to mean the common equity, if any, forming part of such Reference Property. For these purposes, (I) the Daily VWAP of any Reference Property Unit or portion thereof that consists of a class of common equity securities will be determined by reference to the definition of “Daily VWAP,” substituting, if applicable, the Bloomberg page for such class of securities in such definition; and (II) the Daily VWAP of any Reference Property Unit or portion thereof that does not consist of a class of common equity securities, and the Last Reported Sale Price of any Reference Property Unit or portion thereof that does not consist of a class of securities, will be the fair value of such Reference Property Unit or portion thereof, as applicable, determined in good faith by the Company (or, in the case of cash denominated in U.S. dollars, the face amount thereof).

If the Reference Property consists of more than a single type of consideration to be determined based in part upon any form of stockholder election, then the composition of the Reference Property Unit will be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration actually received, per share of Common Stock, by the holders of Common Stock. The Company will notify the Holder of such weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made.

At or before the effective date of such Common Stock Change Event, the Company and the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (if not the Company) of such Common Stock Change Event (the “Successor Person”) will execute and deliver such instruments or agreements that (x) provides for subsequent conversions of this Note in the manner set forth in this Section 5(I); (y) provides for subsequent adjustments to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 5(G) and Section 5(H) in a manner consistent with this Section 5(I); and (z) contains such other provisions as the Company reasonably determines are appropriate to preserve the economic interests of the Holder and to give effect to the provisions of this Section 5(I). If the Reference Property includes shares of stock or other securities or assets of a Person other than the Successor Person, then such other Person will also execute such instruments or agreements and such instruments or agreements will contain such additional provisions the Company reasonably determines are appropriate to preserve the economic interests of the Holder.

(ii) Notice of Common Stock Change Events. As soon as practicable after learning the anticipated or actual effective date of any Common Stock Change Event, the Company will provide written notice to the Holder of such Common Stock Change Event, including a brief description of such Common Stock Change Event, its anticipated effective date and a brief description of the anticipated change in the conversion right of this Note.

36

(iii) Compliance Covenant. The Company will not become a party to any Common Stock Change Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 5(I).

(J) Limitations on Conversions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not effect the conversion of any portion of this Note, or otherwise issue shares pursuant to this Note, and the Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Note, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Note and any such conversion or issuance shall be null and void and treated as if never made, to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion or issuance, the Holder together with the other Attribution Parties collectively would beneficially own in the aggregate in excess of [4.99][9.99][19.99]%¹ (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion or issuance. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and the other Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock held by the Holder and all other Attribution Parties plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of, or otherwise pursuant to, this Note with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) conversion of the remaining, unconverted portion of this Note beneficially owned by the Holder or any of the other Attribution Parties and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preferred stock or warrants) beneficially owned by the Holder or any other Attribution Party subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section 5(J). In the event that any shares of Common Stock are not delivered to the Holder on account of the provisions of this Section 5(J) when due, the Company’s obligation to deliver such shares shall not be extinguished and the Company shall deliver such shares at such time as the Holder notifies the Company that the delivery of such shares would not cause the ownership of such Common Stock by the Holder together with its Attribution Parties to exceed the Maximum Percentage of the Company’s then outstanding shares of Common Stock. For purposes of this Section 5(J), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. For purposes of this Note, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock the Holder may acquire in connection with this Note without exceeding the Maximum Percentage, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the Commission, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (the “Reported Outstanding Share Number”). If the Company receives a notice from the Holder related to the conversion of this Note or any issuance of shares of Common Stock in connection with this Note at a time when the actual number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the Company shall promptly notify the Holder in writing of the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding and, to the extent that such conversion or issuance of shares of Common Stock would otherwise cause the Holder’s beneficial ownership, as determined pursuant to this Section 5(J), to exceed the Maximum Percentage, the Holder must notify the Company of a reduced number of shares of Common Stock to be issued

37

pursuant to such notice. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Trading Day confirm in writing or by electronic mail to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Note, by the Holder and any other Attribution Party since the date as of which the Reported Outstanding Share Number was reported. In the event that the issuance of shares of Common Stock to the Holder upon conversion of, or otherwise pursuant to, this Note results in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties being deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, more than the Maximum Percentage of the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock (as determined under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act), the number of shares so issued by which the Holder’s and the other Attribution Parties’ aggregate beneficial ownership exceeds the Maximum Percentage (the “Excess Shares”) shall be deemed null and void and shall be cancelled ab initio, and the Holder shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the Excess Shares; provided further that notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated herein, the obligation of the Company to issue such shares hereunder shall survive the repayment in full, repurchase in full or conversion in full of this Note until such time as such shares are delivered hereunder. Upon delivery of a written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 19.99% as specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase in the Maximum Percentage will not be effective until the sixty-first (61^st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and the other Attribution Parties and not to any Other Holder of Notes that is not an Attribution Party of the Holder; provided further that if the Company has obtained the Requisite 5635(b) Stockholder Approval (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any percentage specified in such notice, or provide that the provisions of this Section 5(J) shall no longer be applicable with respect to such Holder. For purposes of clarity, the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of this Note in excess of the Maximum Percentage shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Holder for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) or Rule 16a-1(a)(1) of the Exchange Act. No prior inability to convert this Note or receive shares pursuant to this Note pursuant to this paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determination of convertibility. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 5(J) to the extent necessary to correct this paragraph or any portion of this paragraph which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation contained in this Section 5(J) or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitation contained in this paragraph may not be waived and shall apply to a successor holder of this Note. The limitation in this paragraph shall cease to apply following a Common Stock Change Event if the Reference Property includes shares of stock or other securities or assets that are not listed or admitted for trading on an Eligible Exchange.

Section 6. REQUIRED REPURCHASE OF NOTE UPON A FUNDAMENTAL CHANGE.

(A) Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change. Subject to the other terms of this Section 6, if a Fundamental Change occurs, then the Holder will have the right to require the Company to repurchase this Note (or any portion of this Note in an Authorized Denomination) on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date for such Fundamental Change for a cash purchase price equal to the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price.

38

(B) Fundamental Change Repurchase Date. The Fundamental Change Repurchase Date for any Fundamental Change will be a Business Day of the Holder’s choosing that is no more than twenty (20) Business Days after the later of: (x) the date the Company delivers to the Holder the related Fundamental Change Notice pursuant to Section 6(C); and (y) the effective date of such Fundamental Change.

(C) Fundamental Change Notice. No later than the twentieth (20th) Business Day before the occurrence of any Fundamental Change, the Company will send to the Holder a written notice (the “Fundamental Change Notice”) thereof (provided, however, that to the extent such notice is required to be made prior to the actual public announcement of such Specified Fundamental Change, the Company shall use its best efforts to obtain the consent of the other party or parties to any confidentiality agreement relating to the transaction or transactions giving rise to such Fundamental Change to provide such notice to Holder, as well as the material terms of such transaction or transactions to Holder), stating the expected date such Fundamental Change will occur. No later than the tenth (10th) Business Day after the date of delivery of the Fundamental Change Notice, the Holder shall notify the Company in writing (a “Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice”) whether it will require the Company to repurchase this Note and specify the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date.

(D) Effect of Repurchase. If this Note (or any portion of this Note) is to be repurchased upon a Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change, then, from and after the date the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Price is paid in full, the Principal Amount of this Note (or such portion) will cease to be outstanding and interest will cease to accrue on this Note (or such portion).

(E) Partial Repurchase upon an ASE Disposition in Certain Circumstances. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6 to the contrary, if a Fundamental Change pursuant to clause (E) of such definition occurs and the Net Cash Proceeds from such ASE Disposition are insufficient to repay the aggregate Fundamental Change Repurchase Prices for this Note (or any portion of this Note), together with all Other Notes (or any portion of any Other Notes), required by the Holder and such Other Holders, as the case may be, to be repurchased upon such Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change, then, (i) the aggregate Principal Amount of this Note and such Other Notes required by the applicable Holders to be repurchased upon such Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change shall be limited to an aggregate Principal Amount of this Note and such Other Notes for which the aggregate Fundamental Change Repurchase Prices of such Senior Secured Convertible Notes do not exceed the Net Cash Proceeds with the Principal Amount of each such Senior Secured Convertible Note reduced on a pro rata basis (based on the Principal Amount the Holders have required the Company to repurchase in such Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change) in an amount sufficient so that the Net Cash Proceeds from such ASE Disposition are sufficient to repay the aggregate Fundamental Change Repurchase Prices for the Senior Secured Convertible Notes required by the applicable Holders to be repurchased upon such Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change; provided, however, that if only the Holder and no Other Holder has required the Company to repurchase its Senior Secured Convertible Note (or any portion thereof) in such Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change and the Net Cash Proceeds from such ASE Disposition are insufficient to repay the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for this

39

Note (or any portion thereof subject to repurchase), the Principal Amount of this Note subject to such Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change shall be reduced in an amount sufficient so that the Net Cash Proceeds from such ASE Disposition are sufficient to repay the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for this Note (or any portion of this Note), to be repurchased upon such Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change, (ii) if any Senior Secured Convertible Note, including this Note (or any portion thereof), to be repurchased upon such Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change is submitted for conversion in part after the date the Company has delivered the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice, the portion of such Senior Secured Convertible Note submitted for conversion shall be deemed (so far as may be possible) to be the portion selected for such Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change and any such converted Principal Amounts allocated to the other Holders accordingly, and (iii) from and after the date the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Price is paid in full with respect to such agreed portion of this Note and the Other Notes, such portion of the Principal Amount of this Note will cease to be outstanding and interest will cease to accrue on such portion of this Note.

Section 7. REDEMPTION OF THIS NOTE

(A) Company Redemption Election Following a Specified Fundamental Change. This Note may not be prepaid or redeemed at the Company’s option prior to a Specified Fundamental Change. After the first effective date of any Specified Fundamental Change (the “Specified Fundamental Change Trigger Date”), the Company may redeem all (but not less than all) of the then outstanding Principal Amount of this Note at a cash redemption price equal to the Company Redemption Price (a “Company Redemption”) at any time, on a date to be determined by the Company (a “Company Redemption Date”); provided that, (i) the Company must elect to redeem all (but not less than all) of the then outstanding Principal Amount of this Note and the Other Notes; (ii) the Company must provide notice (a “Company Redemption Notice”) thereof at least ten (10) Business Days prior to such Company Redemption Date to the Holder and all Other Holders and certify that the Equity Conditions are satisfied on the date such Company Redemption Notice was delivered to the Holder, (iii) the Company Redemption Date may not be earlier than twenty (20) Business Days after the Specified Fundamental Change Trigger Date, and (iv) the Equity Conditions are satisfied as of the date the Company Redemption Notice was delivered; provided, further, that, for the avoidance of doubt, Holder may, at its option, convert all or any part of this Note following a Company Redemption Notice and prior to the Company Redemption Date and any portion of Holder’s Note not so converted as of the Close of Business on the Scheduled Trading Day prior to the Company Redemption Date will be redeemed in full on the Company Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 7(A) will cease to have any force and effect if (i) any Default or Event of Default has occurred hereunder or (ii) any event or circumstance has occurred and is continuing which, with the giving of notice or passage of time or both, could constitute an Event of Default with respect to Section 10(A)(ii), Section 10(A)(iv), Section 10(A)(vi), Section 10(A)(ix), Section 10(A)(x), Section 10(A)(xi), Section 10(A)(xiii) or Section 10(A)(xv).

provided, however, that the Company need not preserve or keep in full force and effect any such rights (charter and statutory), license or franchise or existence of any of its Subsidiaries if the Board of Directors determines in good faith that (x) the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; and (y) the loss thereof is not, individually or in the aggregate, materially adverse to the Holder.

(C) Ranking. All payments due under this Note shall rank (i) pari passu with all Other Notes, (ii) effectively senior to all unsecured obligations of the Company to the extent of the value of the Collateral securing the Notes for so long as the Collateral so secures the Notes in accordance with the terms hereof and (iii) any Subordinated Indebtedness.

(D) Indebtedness; Amendments to Indebtedness. The Company shall not and shall not permit any Subsidiary to: (a) create, incur, assume, guarantee or be or remain liable with respect to any Indebtedness, other than Permitted Indebtedness; or (b) prepay any Indebtedness except by the conversion of Indebtedness into equity securities (other than Disqualified Stock) and the payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares in connection with such conversion. The Company shall not and shall not permit any Subsidiary to incur any Indebtedness that would cause a breach or Default under the Notes or prohibit or restrict the performance of any of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ Obligations under the Notes or any Transaction Document, including without limitation, the payment of interest and principal thereon.

(E) Liens. The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or permit to exist any Lien of any kind on any asset now owned or hereafter acquired, except Permitted Liens.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not, and shall not allow any Subsidiary to, declare or pay any cash dividend or make a cash distribution on any class of stock or other Equity Interest if (A) any Event of Default has occurred hereunder and has not been waived by the Required Holders or (B) any event or circumstance has occurred and is continuing which, with the giving of notice or passage of time or both, could constitute an Event of Default with respect to Section 10(A)(ii), Section 10(A)(iv), Section 10(A)(vi), Section 10(A)(ix), Section 10(A)(x), Section 10(A)(xi), Section 10(A)(xiii) or Section 10(A)(xv).

(I) Taxes. The Company and its Subsidiaries shall pay when due all taxes, fees or other charges of any nature whatsoever (together with any related interest or penalties) now or hereafter imposed or assessed against the Company and its Subsidiaries or their respective assets or upon their ownership, possession, use, operation or disposition thereof or upon their rents, receipts or earnings arising therefrom (except where the failure to pay would not, individually or in the

42

aggregate, have a material effect on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries). The Company and its Subsidiaries shall file on or before the due date therefor all personal property tax returns (except where the failure to pay would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material effect on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries).

On or prior to the first (1st) Business Day of each month, the Company shall provide to the Holder a certification, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, executed on behalf of the Company by the Chief Financial Officer of the Company (a “Compliance Certificate”), certifying whether or not the Company has satisfied the requirements of Section 8(D), Section 8(G), this Section 8(J) and Section 8(CC) as of the immediately preceding calendar month. If the Company determines in its sole discretion that such information constitutes material non-public information, then the Company will so indicate in the certification provided pursuant to the preceding sentence and the Company will concurrently disclose such material non-public information on a Current Report on Form 8-K or otherwise.

(K) Maintenance of Books and Records. The Company shall, and the Company shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain and preserve proper books of record and account in conformity with GAAP and all applicable requirements of any governmental authority having legal or regulatory jurisdiction over the Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be.

(O) Maintenance of Intellectual Property. The Company will take, and the Company shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to take, all actions necessary or advisable to maintain and preserve all of the Intellectual Property Rights (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) of the Company or such Subsidiary that are necessary or material (as determined by the Company in good faith) to the conduct of its business in full force and effect.

(P) Maintenance of Insurance. The Company shall maintain, and the Company shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain, insurance with responsible and reputable insurance companies or associations (including, without limitation, comprehensive general liability, hazard, rent and business interruption insurance) with respect to its properties (including all real properties leased or owned by it) and business, in such amounts and covering such risks as is required by any governmental authority having jurisdiction with respect thereto or as is carried generally in accordance with sound business practice by companies in similar businesses similarly situated.

(Q) Transactions with Affiliates. Neither the Company, nor any of its Subsidiaries, shall enter into, renew, extend or be a party to, any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, the purchase, sale, lease, transfer or exchange of property or assets of any kind or the rendering of services of any kind) with any affiliate (other than the Company or any of its Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries), except transactions for fair consideration and on terms no less favorable to it than would be obtainable in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a Person that is not an affiliate thereof.

(R) Restricted Issuances. The Company shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Required Holders, (i) issue any Senior Secured Convertible Notes (other than as contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Senior Secured Convertible Notes) or (ii) issue any other securities or incur any Indebtedness, in each case, that would cause a breach or Default under the Senior Secured Convertible Notes or that by its terms would prohibit or restrict the performance of any of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ Obligations under the Senior Secured Convertible Notes, including, without limitation, the payment of principal thereon.

(S) Share Reserve. So long as any Senior Secured Convertible Note or any Warrants (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) remain outstanding, the Company shall at all times have no less than a number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock equal to (i) the sum of (x) one hundred percent (100%) of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock as shall be necessary to satisfy the Company’s obligations to issue shares of Common Stock under the outstanding Warrants, which shall be reserved for issuance upon the exercise of the Warrants (which such reservation shall be for the sole benefit of and exclusive availability for the Holders), plus (y) one hundred percent (100%) of a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the then outstanding Principal Amount of all Senior Secured Convertible Notes issued pursuant to the

44

Securities Purchase Agreement plus an amount equal to all interest accruable on such outstanding Principal Amount of Senior Secured Convertible Notes through the Maturity Date, and the denominator of which shall be the applicable Conversion Price (the “Required Reserve Amount”); provided, that at no time shall the number of shares of Common Stock reserved pursuant to this Section 8(S) be reduced other than in connection with any stock combination, reverse stock split or other similar transaction. If at any time the number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance is not sufficient to meet the Required Reserve Amount, the Company will promptly take all corporate action necessary to authorize and reserve a sufficient number of shares, including, without limitation, calling a special meeting of stockholders to authorize additional shares to meet the Company’s obligations pursuant to the Transaction Documents, in the case of an insufficient number of authorized shares, obtain stockholder approval (if required) of an increase in such authorized number of shares, and voting the management shares of the Company in favor of an increase in the authorized shares of the Company to ensure that the number of authorized shares is sufficient to meet the Required Reserve Amount.

(T) Independent Investigation. At the request of the Required Holders at any time the Required Holders have determined in good faith that (i) an Event of Default has occurred or (ii) any event or circumstance has occurred and is continuing which, with the giving of notice or passage of time or both, could constitute an Event of Default but the Company has not timely agreed to such determination in writing, the Company shall hire an independent, reputable investment bank selected by the Company and approved by the Required Holders to investigate as to whether such Event of Default or event or circumstance has occurred (the “Independent Investigator”). If the Independent Investigator determines that such Event of Default or event or circumstance has occurred, the Independent Investigator shall notify the Company of such Event of Default or occurrence of such event or circumstance and the Company shall promptly deliver written notice to the Holder of such Event of Default if such Event of Default has occurred. In connection with such investigation, the Independent Investigator may, during normal business hours and upon signing a confidentiality agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company, inspect all contracts, books, records, personnel, offices and other facilities and properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries and, to the extent available to the Company after the Company uses reasonable efforts to obtain them, the records of its accountants (including the accountants’ work papers) and any books of account, records, reports and other papers not contractually required of the Company to be confidential or secret, or subject to attorney-client or other evidentiary privilege, and the Independent Investigator may make such copies and inspections thereof as the Independent Investigator may reasonably request. The Company shall furnish the Independent Investigator with such financial and operating data and other information with respect to the business and properties of the Company as the Independent Investigator may reasonably request. The Company shall permit the Independent Investigator to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the Company with, and to make proposals and furnish advice with respect thereto to, any of the Company’s officers, directors, key employees and independent public accountants (and by this provision the Company authorizes said accountants to discuss with such Independent Investigator the finances and affairs of the Company and any Subsidiaries; provided, that the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer shall be invited to join any such discussion), all at such reasonable times, upon reasonable notice, and as often as may be reasonably requested.

45

(U) [Reserved].

(V) Fiduciary Duties. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Holder is not a fiduciary or agent of the Company, the Holder will not have any obligations hereunder except those obligations expressly set forth herein (and in the Securities Purchase Agreement) and the Holder is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to the Company with respect to the Note and not as a fiduciary or agent of the Company. The Company agrees that it will not assert any claim against the Holder based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Holder in connection with the Note. The Company acknowledges that the Holder shall have no obligation to (a) maintain the confidentiality of any information provided by the Company or (b) refrain from trading any securities while in possession of such information in the absence of a written non-disclosure agreement signed by an officer of the Holder that explicitly provides for such confidentiality and trading restrictions. In the absence of such an executed, written non-disclosure agreement, the Company acknowledges that the Holder may freely trade in any securities issued by the Company, may possess and use any information provided by the Company in connection with such trading activity, and may disclose any such information to any third party.

(W) Rule 144. The Company shall cause this Note and any shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Note to be eligible to be offered, sold or otherwise transferred by the Holder pursuant to Rule 144, without any requirements as to volume, manner of sale, availability of current public information (whether or not then satisfied) or notice under the Securities Act and without any requirement for registration under any state securities or “blue sky” law, on and after the date that is six (6) months following the Issue Date. If this Note is to be transferred, the Holder shall notify the Company and surrender this Note to the Company (or provide the Company an affidavit in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company that this Note was lost, stolen or destroyed), whereupon the Company will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Note, registered as the Holder may request. The Company shall not be obligated to pay any tax which may be payable with respect to any transfer (or deemed transfer) arising in connection with the registration of any certificates for Notes in the name of any Person other than the Holder.

(X) Deposit Accounts. The Company shall pay when due any and all fees and expenses owed by it under all deposit accounts located in the United States and subject to a Control Agreement entered into in favor of the Collateral Agent.

(Y) [Reserved].

(i) a joinder agreement in respect of the Guaranty Agreement;

(ii) a certificate signed by an authorized officer of the Company making the representations and warranties in Section 3 of the Securities Purchase Agreement that relate to the Company’s Subsidiaries are made with respect to such new Subsidiary or Parent Entity and the Guaranty Agreement, as applicable, as of the date of such certificate; and

46

(iii) an opinion of counsel addressed to each of the Holders of the Notes satisfactory to the Required Holders, to the effect that the Guaranty Agreement by such Person has been duly authorized, executed and delivered and that the Guaranty Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding contract and agreement of such Person enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as an enforcement of such terms may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance and similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles.

(AA) [Reserved].

(BB) Tag Along Rights. Prior to entering into any transaction that would result in a Specified Fundamental Change, (i) the Company shall use best efforts to share information and material terms about such transaction with Holder, subject to the entry by Holder to a customary confidentiality agreement, and (ii) if so notified by Holder of Holder’s interest in “tagging along” with such transaction or transactions that will give rise to such Specified Fundamental Change, the Company shall convey Holder’s interest to the counterparty or counterparties to such transaction or transactions, and use reasonable efforts to facilitate a negotiation between Holder and the counterparty or counterparties.

(CC) Notice of Litigation. The Company shall notify the Holder in writing promptly, and in no event later than three (3) Business Days following receipt of any notice thereof, the threat or commencement of, or any material development in, any litigation (including any governmental proceeding or arbitration proceeding), tax audit or investigative proceeding, claim, lawsuit, and/or investigation against or involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their businesses or operations.

Section 9. SUCCESSORS.

The Company will not be acquired by, combine with, consolidate with or merge with or into, or (directly, or indirectly through one or more of its Subsidiaries) sell, transfer, license, lease or otherwise dispose, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another Person, other than the Holder or any of its Affiliates (a “Business Combination Event”), unless:

(A) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person either (x) is the Company or (y) if not the Company, is a corporation (the “Successor Corporation”) duly organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia that (or, if applicable, its Parent Entity) expressly assumes (by executing and delivering to the Holder, at or before the effective time of such Business Combination Event, a supplement to this instrument) all of the Company’s Obligations under this Note; and

(B) immediately after giving effect to such Business Combination Event, no Event of Default will have occurred that has not been waived and no Default will have occurred and be continuing which has not been waived.

At the effective time of any Business Combination Event, the Successor Corporation (if not the Company) will succeed to, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Note with the same effect as if such Successor Corporation had been named as the Company in this Note, and, except in the case of a lease, the predecessor Company will be discharged from its obligations under this Note.

(xiii) the Company fails to remove any restrictive legend on any certificate or any shares of Common Stock issued to the Holder pursuant to any Securities (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) acquired by the Holder under the Securities Purchase Agreement (including this Note) as and when required by such Securities or the Securities Purchase Agreement, unless otherwise then prohibited by applicable federal securities laws and such failure continues for more than five (5) Trading Days;

(xiv) any Security Document shall for any reason fail or cease to create a separate valid and perfected, and, except to the extent permitted by the terms hereof or thereof, first priority Lien on the Collateral, in each case, in favor of the Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms thereof, or any material provision of any Security Document shall at any time for any reason cease to be valid and binding on or enforceable against the Company or the validity or enforceability thereof shall be contested by any party thereto, or a proceeding shall be commenced by the Company or any governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Company, seeking to establish the invalidity or unenforceability thereof;

For clarity, an Event of Default under this Section 10(A)(xv) will not require any curtailment of revenue.

(xvi) at any time the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note or exercise of the Warrants issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement are not Freely Tradeable on or after August 1, 2024 (or such later date as the Required Holders may agree in writing (including, for the avoidance of doubt, via e-mail) in their sole discretion);

(B) Acceleration.

50

(i) Automatic Acceleration in Certain Circumstances. If an Event of Default set forth in Section 10(A)(xvii) occurs with respect to the Company or any Significant Subsidiary (and not solely with respect to a Subsidiary of the Company that is not a Significant Subsidiary), then the then outstanding portion of the Principal Amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, this Note will immediately become due and payable in cash in an amount equal to the Event of Default Acceleration Amount without any further action or notice by any Person.

(ii) Optional Acceleration. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default set forth in Section 10(A)(xvii) with respect to the Company or any Significant Subsidiary and not solely with respect to a Subsidiary of the Company that is not a Significant Subsidiary) occurs and has not been waived by the Required Holders, unless the principal amount of all of the Notes shall have already become due and payable, then the Required Holders, by notice to the Company, may declare this Note (or any portion thereof) to become due and payable on the Business Day immediately following the date of such notice for cash in an amount equal to the Event of Default Acceleration Amount.

The immediately preceding paragraph, however, is subject to the conditions that if, at any time after the Principal Amount of this Note shall have been so declared due and payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the monies due shall have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, and if (1) rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) any and all existing Events of Default under this Note, other than the nonpayment of the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on this Note that shall have become due solely by such acceleration, shall have been cured or waived, then and in every such case (except as provided in the immediately succeeding sentence) the Required Holders, by written notice to the Company may waive all Defaults or Events of Default with respect to the Notes and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences and such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Note; but no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent Default or Event of Default, or shall impair any right consequent thereon. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any Default or Event of Default resulting from (i) the nonpayment of the principal (including any Amortization Payment, the Company Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, or accrued and unpaid interest on, this Note, (ii) a failure to redeem or repurchase this Note when required or (iii) a failure to pay or deliver, as the case may be, the consideration due upon conversion of this Note.

(iii) Event of Default Acceleration Event. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default Acceleration Event (including, without limitation, the occurrence of any Event of Default set forth in Section 10(A)(xvii), the Event of Default Acceleration Amount will be automatically due and payable, including the Minimum Return amount thereon, in accordance with the terms hereof as though such Indebtedness was voluntarily prepaid at such time and shall constitute part of the Obligations, whether due to acceleration pursuant to the terms of this Note (in which case it shall be due immediately, upon the giving of an Event of Default Notice pursuant to Section 10(B)(ii), or automatically, in accordance with

51

Section 10(B)(i), by operation of law or otherwise (including, without limitation, on account of any bankruptcy filing or any other Event of Default Acceleration Event (including without limitation, a Bankruptcy Event occurring automatically upon the Company or any of its Subsidiaries becoming insolvent within the meaning of 11 U.S.C. §101(32)), in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining the actual amount of damages to the Holder or profits lost by the Holder as a result of such acceleration, and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable estimation and calculation of the lost profits or damages of the Holder as a result thereof. The Event of Default Acceleration Amount, including the Minimum Return amount, shall be fully earned on the Issue Date and due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of any Event of Default Acceleration Event. The Event of Default Acceleration Amount shall be in addition to any reimbursement obligations or other amounts payable in connection with the Transaction Documents. Any Minimum Return amount (or, if required, each of the Minimum Return amounts) payable pursuant to this Note shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by the Holder as the result of the applicable triggering event and the Company agrees that Minimum Return amount is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. In the event the Obligations are reinstated in connection with or following any applicable triggering event, it is understood and agreed that the Obligations shall include any Minimum Return amount payable in accordance with this Note, including with respect to the Event of Default Acceleration Amount. The Minimum Return amount shall also be payable in the event the Obligations are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other similar means. If the Minimum Return amount becomes due and payable pursuant to this Note, the Minimum Return amount shall be deemed to be principal of the Notes and Obligations under the Transaction Documents and interest shall accrue on the full Principal Amount of the Notes (including on the Minimum Return amount) from and after the applicable triggering event. In the event that any Minimum Return amount is determined not to be due and payable by order of any court of competent jurisdiction, including, without limitation, by operation of the Bankruptcy Code, despite such a triggering event having occurred, the Minimum Return amount shall nonetheless constitute Obligations under this Note and the Transaction Documents for all purposes hereunder and thereunder. THE ISSUER HEREBY WAIVES THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE MINIMUM RETURN AMOUNT AND ANY DEFENSE TO PAYMENT, WHETHER SUCH DEFENSE MAY BE BASED IN PUBLIC POLICY, AMBIGUITY, OR OTHERWISE. The Company and the Holder acknowledge and agree that any Minimum Return amount due and payable in accordance with this Note and the Transaction Documents does not and shall not be deemed to constitute unmatured interest, whether under Section 5.02(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. The Company further acknowledges and agrees, and waives any argument to the contrary, that payment of such amount does not constitute a penalty or an otherwise unenforceable or invalid obligation. The parties have agreed on the Minimum Return amount because it captures the attractiveness of the investment in this Note and the opportunity cost to the Holder for its capital investment because the Holder is an investor with limited ability to recycle capital and the Minimum Return amount reflects the parties’ view on risk return. The Company and the Holder agree (and each Person that accepts an interest in the Note or Obligations from time to time by their acceptance of such Note or interest agrees) that the Minimum Return amount is not to be

52

construed as part of a headline interest rate, but instead compensation specifically reflecting the Holder’s agreement to forego receiving additional compensation, fees and pricing on the Issue Date in return for the Company agreeing to pay the Minimum Return amount and that the payment of such amounts reflect each Holder’s capital anticipated to be returned for the specific investment of the Holder’s capital after taking into account the relative risk of the investment in this Note and agreement to receive cash payment of that portion of their compensation at a date later than the Issue Date. The Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that, prior to executing this Note and the Transaction Documents, it has had the opportunity to review, evaluate, and negotiate the Minimum Return amount and the calculations thereof with its advisors, and that (i) the Minimum Return amount are each reasonable and each is the product of an arm’s-length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel, (ii) the Minimum Return amount shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made, (iii) the Company shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this Section 10(B)(iii), (v) the Company’s agreement to pay the Minimum Return amount is a material inducement to the Holder’s agreement to purchase this Note, and (vi) the Minimum Return amount represent a good faith, reasonable estimate and calculation of the lost profits, losses or other damages of the Holder and that it would be impractical and extremely difficult to ascertain the actual amount of damages to the Holder or profits lost by the Holder as a result of such any applicable triggering event.

(C) Notice of Events of Default. Promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after an Event of Default, the Company will provide written notice of such Event of Default to the Holder (an “Event of Default Notice”), which Event of Default Notice shall include (i) a reasonable description of the applicable Event of Default, (ii) the date on which the Event of Default occurred and (iii) the date on which the Default underlying such Event of Default initially occurred, if different than the date on which the Event of Default occurred.

(D) Default PIK Interest. If a Default or an Event of Default occurs, then in each case, to the extent lawful, interest (“Default PIK Interest”) will automatically accrue on the Principal Amount outstanding as of the date of such Default or Event of Default at a rate per annum equal to fifteen percent (15%), from, and including, the date of such Default or Event of Default, as applicable, to, but excluding, the date such Default is cured. Default PIK Interest hereunder will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months and will be payable in arrears in kind on the earlier of (i) the first day of each calendar month, (ii) the date such Default is cured, (iii) any Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, Conversion Settlement Date or any date that an Event of Default Acceleration Amount is paid by the Company to the Holder, and (iv) the Maturity Date. Default PIK Interest shall be payable in kind in the same manner as PIK Interest pursuant to Section 4(B), by capitalizing such Default PIK Interest and adding it to (and thereby increasing) the outstanding Principal Amount of this Note.

Section 11. RANKING.

All payments due under this Note shall rank (i) pari passu with all Other Notes, (ii) effectively senior to all unsecured obligations of the Company to the extent of the value of the Collateral securing the Notes for so long as the Collateral so secures the Notes in accordance with the terms hereof and (iii) senior to any Subordinated Indebtedness.

“(A) Amortization. The Company shall make an amortization payment with respect to this Note equal to the applicable Amortization Payment on each Amortization Date. Each such Amortization Payment shall be paid to Holder in cash on each Amortization Date in accordance with this Section 4. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) by delivering a written notice to the Company at least five (5) Trading Days prior to the applicable Amortization Date, the Holder may, in its sole discretion, defer any Amortization Payment (including any prior Deferred Amortization Payment) (or any portion thereof) one or more times prior to the applicable Amortization Date to any subsequent Amortization Date (in which case such deferred Amortization Payment shall become a “Deferred Amortization Payment”), in which case, on the applicable Amortization Date, the Company will pay the Holder an amount in cash equal to such Amortization Payment (including any Deferred Amortization Payments) to be paid on such date; and (ii) the Holder shall have the right to convert any Partial Amortization Payment or Deferred Amortization Payment (or any applicable portion thereof) into Common Stock pursuant to Section 5 hereof at any time prior to the receipt of the applicable Partial Amortization Payment or Deferred Amortization Payment from the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or in any other Transaction Document, no Amortization Payment shall be due on February 1, 2024 or May 1, 2024 (or for the avoidance of doubt, June 1, 2024), and the first Amortization Date shall be August 1, 2024, on which date an Amortization Payment in an aggregate amount equal to 33.33% of the Stated Principal Amount of this Note shall be due and payable.”

2. Amendment to the Astera Institute Note. The Note Parties and the Holders, including Astera Institute, a Holder of that certain Senior Secured Convertible Note dated as of May 13, 2024, in the Stated Principal Amount of $5,000,000 (the “May 13 Note”), hereby (i) amend the exhibit form of senior secured convertible note attached to the Purchase Agreement and (ii) in addition to the amendment provided in Section 1.a. above, further amend the May 13 Note, in each case, as follows:

b. The definition of “Interest Capitalization Date” set forth in Section 1 of each of the May 13 Note and the exhibit form of senior secured convertible note is hereby deleted in its entirety and amended and replaced with the following:

““Interest Capitalization Date” means (A) each February 1, May 1, August 1 and November 1 of each calendar year, beginning on August 1, 2024; and (B) if not otherwise included in clause (A), the Maturity Date.”

3. Representations and Warranties. Each of the Note Parties (a) hereby expressly (i) confirms its Obligations under each Transaction Document, in each case as amended, restated, supplemented or modified immediately after giving effect to this Amendment; (ii) confirms that its Obligations as amended, restated, supplemented or modified hereby under the Notes, the Purchase Agreement and the other Transaction Documents are entitled to the benefits of the pledges set forth in the Transaction Documents, in each case, as amended, restated, supplemented or modified immediately after giving effect to this Amendment (including as such grants have been amended, restated, supplemented or modified by this Amendment); and (iii) confirms that its Obligations under the Notes, the Purchase Agreement and the other Transaction Documents immediately after giving effect to this Amendment constitute Obligations and that such Obligations shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of the grant of collateral security set forth in the Security Documents.

4. Reference to and Effect on the Transaction Documents. The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not, except as expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver or novation of any Transaction Document or of any right, power or remedy of any Holder or the Collateral Agent under any Transaction Document, nor constitute a waiver or novation of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents. The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not, except as expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver or novation of any Transaction Document or of any right, power or remedy of any Holder or the Collateral Agent under any Transaction Document, nor, except as expressly provided herein, constitute a waiver or novation of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents. The parties hereto hereby expressly acknowledge and agree that this Amendment is, and shall be deemed to constitute, a “Transaction Document” for all purposes of the Purchase Agreement, the Notes and the other Transaction Documents. Each reference in the Purchase Agreement and in each of the other Transaction Documents to: (i) the “this Agreement” or the “Transaction Documents” or words of like import shall mean and be references to the Notes, the Purchase Agreement and to the other Transaction Documents, as applicable, as amended by this Amendment; (ii) “the Notes” and other words of like import shall mean and be references to the Notes as amended by this Amendment; and (iii) “Obligations” and other words of like import shall mean and be references to the Obligations of the Note Parties under the Notes, the Guaranty Agreement and other Transaction Documents as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified by this Amendment.

5. No Novation. It is the intent of the parties hereto that, except as expressly provided herein, the amendment and waiver of certain terms of the Note contemplated hereby constitutes neither a novation of the rights, obligations and liabilities of the respective parties (including the Obligations) existing under the Transaction Documents nor evidence of payment of all or any of such obligations and liabilities under any of the Transaction Documents and, except as expressly modified hereby, all Transaction Documents and all such rights, obligations and liabilities evidenced thereby shall continue and remain outstanding and in full force and effect.

6. Release.
