Interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days for the actual number of days elapsed.

 

1. All payments of interest and principal shall be in lawful money of the United States of America. All payments shall be applied first to accrued interest, and thereafter to principal.

 

2.

(d) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be entitled to convert this Note if as a result thereof the Holder would beneficially own in excess 4.99% or more of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company or a Successor Issuer, as applicable, at any time that such common stock is registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”).
