(e)           Successive Adjustments; Multiple Adjustments . After an adjustment is made to the Conversion Price under Section 7, any subsequent event requiring an adjustment under Section 7 shall cause an adjustment to such Conversion Price, as so adjusted.

The Company shall, upon written request of the Holder at any time, deliver to the Holder a like certificate setting forth such adjustments and readjustments, the Conversion Price in effect at the time, and the number of Shares and the amount, if any, of other securities or property which at the time would be received upon the conversion of this Note.

8.             Avoidance of Obligations . Save as required by law, the Company shall not, by amendment of its Charter Documents or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action (including entering into any agreement which would limit or restrict the Company’s ability to perform under this Note), avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Note, and shall at all times in good faith carry out all of the provisions of the Transaction Documents and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder under this Note.

In the event that the Holder shall sell or otherwise transfer this Note, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of the Required Reserve Amount. The initial number of Shares reserved for conversions of the Notes and each increase in the number of Shares so reserved shall be allocated pro rata among the holders of the Notes based on the Principal held by each holder (the “ Authorized Share Allocation ”). In the event that a holder shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such holder’s Notes, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such holder’s Authorized Share Allocation. Any Shares reserved and allocated to any Person which ceases to hold any Notes shall be allocated to the remaining holders of the Notes, pro rata based on the principal amount of the Notes then held by such holders.

(b)           Insufficient Authorized Shares . If at any time when any Note remains outstanding, the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved Shares to satisfy its obligation to reserve for issuance upon conversion of the Notes at least a number of Shares equal to the Required Reserve Amount (an “ Authorized Share Failure ”), then the Company shall immediately take all action necessary to increase the Company’s authorized share capital to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for the Notes then outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall hold a meeting of its shareholders for the approval of an increase in the share capital.
