(2) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution.

(iv) Adjustments for Reorganization, Merger, Consolidation or Sales of Assets. If at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date there shall be a capital reorganization of the Company (other than by way of a stock split or combination of shares or stock dividends or distributions provided for in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 3.4(a), or a reclassification, exchange or substitution provided for in Section 3.4(a)(iii)), or a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation where the holders of outstanding voting securities of the Company prior to such merger or consolidation do not own over fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding voting securities of the merged or consolidated entity, immediately after such merger or consolidation, or the sale of all or substantially all of the Company's properties or assets to any other person (an "Organic Change"), then as a part of such Organic Change, (A) if the surviving entity in any such Organic Change is a public company that is registered pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and its common stock is listed or quoted on a national exchange or the OTC Bulletin Board, an appropriate revision to the Conversion Price shall be made and provision shall be made (by adjustments of the Conversion Price) so that the Holder shall have the right thereafter to convert such Note into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities or property of the Company or any successor corporation as it would have received as a result of such Organic Change if it had converted this Note into Common Stock immediately prior to such Organic Change, and (B) if the surviving entity in any such Organic Change is not a public company that is registered pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or its common stock is not listed or quoted on a national securities exchange or the OTC Bulletin Board, the Holder shall have the right to demand prepayment. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 3.4(a)(iv) with respect to the rights of the Holder after the Organic Change to the end that the provisions of this Section 3.4(a)(iv) (including any adjustment in the applicable Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares of stock or other securities deliverable upon conversion of this Note) shall be applied after that event in as nearly an equivalent manner as may be practicable.

The Company shall not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith, assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 3.4 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights of the Holder against impairment. In the event a Holder shall elect to convert any Notes as provided herein, the Company cannot refuse conversion based on any claim that such Holder or any one associated or affiliated with such Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, violation of an agreement to which such Holder is a party or for any reason whatsoever, unless, an injunction from a court, or notice, restraining and or adjoining conversion of all or of said Notes shall have issued and the Company posts a surety bond for the benefit of such Holder in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the amount of the Notes the Holder has elected to convert, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Holder (as liquidated damages) in the event it obtains judgment.
 
(c) Certificates as to Adjustments. Upon occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price or number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note pursuant to this Section 3.4, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to the Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment and readjustment, showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall, upon written request of the Holder, at any time, furnish or cause to be furnished to the Holder a like certificate setting forth such adjustments and readjustments, the applicable Conversion Price in effect at the time, and the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities or property which at the time would be received upon the conversion of this Note.

"Trading Day" means (a) a day on which the Common Stock is traded on the Pink Sheets, OTC Bulletin Board, or (b) if the Common Stock is not traded on the OTC Bulletin Board, a day on which the Common Stock is quoted in the over-the-counter market as reported by the Pink Sheets LLC (or any similar organization or agency succeeding its functions of reporting prices); provided, however, that in the event that the Common Stock is not listed or quoted as set forth in (a) or (b) hereof, then Trading Day shall mean any day except Saturday, Sunday and any day which shall be a legal holiday or a day on which banking institutions in the State of Texas are authorized or required by law or other government action to close.
 
Section 4.12 Usury. All agreements between the Maker and the Holder are hereby expressly limited to provide that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of maturity of the indebtedness evidenced hereby or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to the Holder for the use, forbearance or detention of the indebtedness evidenced hereby exceed the maximum amount which the Holder is permitted to receive under applicable law. If, from any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by law, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall automatically be reduced to the limit of such validity, and if from any circumstance the Holder shall ever receive as interest an amount which would exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of any of the Maker's obligations to the Holder, and not to the payment of interest hereunder. To the extent permitted by applicable law, all sums paid or agreed to be paid for the use, forbearance or detention of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note shall be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of such indebtedness until payment in full, to the end that the rate or amount of interest on account of such indebtedness does not exceed any applicable usury ceiling. As used herein, the term "applicable law" shall mean the all applicable provisions of constitutions, statutes, laws, rules and regulations in effect as of the date hereof, provided, however, that in the event there is a change in such applicable law which results in a higher permissible rate of interest, then this Note shall be governed by such new law as of its effective date. This provision shall control every other provision of all agreements between the Maker and the Holder.
