b)       Remedies Upon Event of Default. If any Event of Default occurs, then the outstanding principal amount of this Note, plus accrued but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and other amounts owing in respect thereof through the date of acceleration, shall become, at the Holder’s election, immediately due and payable in cash at the Mandatory Default Amount. After the occurrence of any Event of Default that results in the eventual acceleration of this Note, the interest rate on this Note shall accrue at an additional interest rate equal to the lesser of 2% per month (24% per annum) or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law. Upon the payment in full of the Mandatory Default Amount, the Holder shall promptly surrender this Note to or as directed by the Company. In connection with such acceleration described herein, the Holder need not provide, and the Company hereby waives, any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and the Holder may immediately and without expiration of any grace period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under applicable law. Such acceleration may be rescinded and annulled by Holder at any time prior to payment hereunder and the Holder shall have all rights as a holder of the Note until such time, if any, as the Holder receives full payment pursuant to this Section 4(b). No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Alternatively, at the election of the Holder, the Holder shall have the option to require the Company to redeem all of the Notes then held by such Holder though the issuance to such Holder of such number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient of (x) the Default Redemption Amount, divided by (y) lowest price in the ten (10) Trading Days immediately prior to the date of election hereunder, or (ii) increase the dividend rate on the outstanding Note held by such Holder retroactively to the initial Closing Date to 18% per annum thereafter. The Default Redemption Amount, whether payable in cash or in shares, shall be due and payable or issuable, as the case may be, within five (5) Trading Days of the date on which the notice for the payment therefor is provided by a Holder (the “Default Redemption Payment Date”). If the Company fails to pay in full the Default Redemption Amount hereunder on the date such amount is due in accordance with this Section 4(b) (whether in cash or shares of Common Stock), the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate equal to the lesser of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, accruing and compounding daily from such date until the Default Redemption Amount, plus all such interest thereon, is paid in full.

Section 5.         Prepayment; Exit Fee

 

At any time upon five (5) days prior written notice to the Holder, the Company may prepay any portion of the principal amount of this Note, all accrued and unpaid interest relating to such prepaid portion of the principal and all other amounts due under this Note. The written notice shall, among other items, state the date such Prepayment Amount (as defined below) is to be paid to the Holder, which shall not in any event be later than 5 days from the date of mailing of the prepayment notice to the Holder (the “Prepayment Date”). If the Company exercises its right to prepay the Note, the Company shall make payment to the Holder of an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the sum of (x) the then outstanding principal amount of this Note, (y) all accrued but unpaid interest and (z) all other amounts owed pursuant to this Note including, but not limited to, all Late Fees and liquidated damages (collectively the “Prepayment Amount”), multiplied by (ii) (x) 105%. The Holder may continue to convert the Note from the date notice of the prepayment is given until the date the Holder receives in full, the Prepayment Amount. If the entire Prepayment Amount is not received by the Holder in immediately available funds by wire transfer pursuant to wire transfer instructions provided to the Company by the Holder, on or before the Prepayment Date, such shall, (at the election of the Holder) be an Event of Default of the payment of principal pursuant to Section 4(a)(1) hereof.

Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Illinois Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such Illinois Courts, or such Illinois Courts are improper or inconvenient venue for such proceeding.

e)       Waiver. Any waiver by the Company or the Holder of a breach of any provision of this Note shall not operate as or be construed to be a waiver of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Note. The failure of the Company or the Holder to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Note on one or more occasions shall not be considered a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Note on any other occasion. Any waiver by the Company or the Holder must be in writing.

 

f)         Severability. If any provision of this Note is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance of this Note shall remain in effect, and if any provision is inapplicable to any Person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other Persons and circumstances. If it shall be found that any interest or other amount deemed interest due hereunder violates the applicable law governing usury, the applicable rate of interest due hereunder shall automatically be lowered to equal the maximum rate of interest permitted under applicable law. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law or other law which would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of or interest on this Note as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Note, and the Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefits or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Holder, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such as though no such law has been enacted.

 

g)       Remedies, Characterizations, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Note shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Note and any of the other Transaction Documents at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue actual and consequential damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Note. The Company covenants to the Holder that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as expressly provided herein. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Company (or the performance thereof). The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any such breach or any such threatened breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. The Company shall provide all information and documentation to the Holder that is requested by the Holder to enable the Holder to confirm the Company’s compliance with the terms and conditions of this Note.
