3. Optional Conversion. Effective on the Amendment Effective Date, the 2011 Loan is hereby amended by adding the following Optional Conversion provision to the terms and conditions of the 2011 Loan:

 

Optional Conversion.

 

(a) Conversion Right. All advances and all unpaid interest accrued under this Note (collectively, the “Term Loan Balance”) may, at the option of the Lender and upon five (5) days prior written notice (pursuant to the form of notice attached hereto as Exhibit A), be converted in whole or in part into a number of shares of Common Stock of Flux Power Holdings, Inc. (the “Flux Shares”) on a per share conversion price equal to $0.30 (the “Conversion Price”), as such price may be adjusted from time to time pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein. As promptly as practicable after such conversion, the Borrower shall cause Flux Power to issue and deliver to the Lender a certificate or certificates representing the full number of Flux Shares issuable upon such conversion (and the issuance of such certificate or certificates shall be made without charge to the Lender for any issuance in respect thereof or other cost incurred by the Lender in connection with such conversion and the related issuance of shares).

 

(b) Adjustment for Dividends and Distributions. If at any time after the date hereof, Flux Power shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the determination of eligible holders of securities entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable with respect to the Flux Shares that is payable in (i) securities of Flux Power other than capital stock or (ii) any other assets, then, and in each such case, the Lender, upon conversion of the Term Loan Balance at any time after the consummation, effective date or record date of such event, shall receive, in addition to the Flux Shares issuable upon such conversion prior to such date, the securities or such other assets of Flux Power to which the Lender would have been entitled upon such date if the Lender had converted the Term Loan Balance immediately prior thereto (all subject to further adjustment as provided in this 2011 Loan).

 

(c) Reorganizations, Mergers, Consolidations or Asset Sales. If at any time after the date hereof there is a tender offer, exchange offer, merger, consolidation, recapitalization, sale of all or substantially all of Flux Power’s assets or reorganization involving the Flux Shares (each, a “Capital Reorganization”), provision shall be made so that the Lender will thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of the Term Loan Balance the number of Flux Shares or other securities or property of Flux Power to which a holder of the number of Flux Shares deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled on such Capital Reorganization, subject to adjustment in respect to such stock or securities by the terms thereof. In any such case, appropriate adjustment will be made in the application of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to the rights of the Lender after the Capital Reorganization to the end that the provisions of this paragraph (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Term Loan Balance) will be applicable after that event and be as nearly equivalent as practicable.

 

(d) Certificate As To Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price, Flux Power at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to the Lender a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment are based and shall file a copy of such certificate with its corporate records. Flux Power shall, upon the reasonable written request of the Lender, furnish or cause to be furnished to the Lender a similar certificate setting forth (i) such adjustments and readjustments, (ii) the Conversion Price then in effect, and (iii) the number of Flux Shares and the amount, if any, of other property which then would be received upon the conversion of the Term Loan Balance.”
