shall loan an amount not less than $100,0000.00 to the Company.

SFO 360336v1 0083635-000001 2


Each Note shall have a principal balance corresponding to the amount of Consideration paid by
Lender pursuant to 2.1(a), (b) or (c) above. Each Note shall be convertible into Conversion
Shares pursuant to Section 2.3 below and shall be secured by the assets of the Company as
described in such Notes and the related security agreement (the “Security Agreement”).

1.4 Right to Convert Notes.

(a) Next Equity Financing. The principal and unpaid accrued interest
of each Note will be automatically converted into Conversion Shares upon the closing of the
Next Equity Financing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, accrued interest on this Note may be
paid in cash at the option of the Company. The number of Conversion Shares to be issued upon
such conversion shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the outstanding principal and
unpaid accrued interest on a Note to be converted on the date of conversion by the Conversion
Price.. At least ten (10) days prior to the closing of the Next Equity Financing, the Company
shall notify the holder of each Note in writing of the terms under which the Equity Securities of
the Company will be sold in such financing. The issuance of Conversion Shares pursuant to the
conversion of each Note shall be upon and subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to
the Equity Securities sold in the Next Equity Financing.

(b) Maturity Conversion. If the Next Equity Financing has not


occurred on or before the Maturity Date, the principal and unpaid accrued interest of each Note
may be converted, at the option of the holder thereof into Conversion Shares (provided, however
if the holder wishes to convert prior to the Maturity Date on the terms set forth in this Section 2.3
(b) it must secure written consent from the Company). The number of Conversion Shares to be
issued upon conversion shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the outstanding
principal and unpaid accrued interest due on the Note to be converted on the date of conversion
by the Conversion Price. As soon as is practicable after the holder of a Note delivers notice to
the Company pursuant to Section 2.3(e) below that such holder intends to convert such Note
pursuant to this Section 2.3(b), the Company shall take such corporate and other action as may
be necessary authorize the Conversion Shares (and shares issuable upon conversion of such
Conversion Shares), which shares shall have the rights, preferences and privileges set forth in
Exhibit B hereto.

(c) Corporate Transaction. In the event of a Corporate Transaction


prior to full payment of a Note or prior to the time when a Note may be converted (as provided
herein), all outstanding principal and unpaid accrued interest due on such Note shall, at Lender’s
election, be (i) due and payable in full at the closing of the Corporate Transaction or (ii) be
converted into Conversion Shares. If converted, the number of Conversion Shares to be issued
upon conversion shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the outstanding principal and
unpaid accrued interest due on the Note to be converted on the date of conversion by the
Conversion Price. At least ten (10) days prior to the closing of the Corporate Transaction, the
Company shall notify the holder of each Note in writing of the terms of such Corporate
Transaction.

(d) No Fractional Shares. Upon the conversion of a Note into


Conversion Shares, in lieu of any fractional shares to which the holder of the Note would

SFO 360336v1 0083635-000001 3


otherwise be entitled, the Company shall pay the Note holder cash equal to such fraction
multiplied by the Conversion Price.

(e) Mechanics of Conversion. Before any Note holder shall be


entitled to convert the same into Conversion Shares pursuant to Section 2.3(b) or (c) above, such
holder shall give written notice to the Company of the election to convert such Notes into
Conversion Shares. In connection with any conversion, the Company shall not be required to
issue or deliver the Conversion Shares until the Note holder has surrendered the Note to the
Company. A conversion pursuant to Section 2.3(a) or (c) may be made contingent upon the
closing of the Next Equity Financing or Corporate Transaction.

Closing. The closing (the “Closing”) of the purchase of the Note pursuant to
Section 2.1(a) and Section 2.2 shall take place at the offices of <Paybl’s Law firm>San
Francisco, California, at 10:00 a.m., on the date of execution of this Agreement, or at such other
time and place as the Company and Lender agree upon orally or in writing. At the Closing,
Lender shall deliver the Consideration payable to the Company pursuant to Section 2.1(a), and
the Company shall deliver to Lender an executed Note in return for such Consideration provided
to the Company.

Representations and Warranties of the Company. In connection with the


transactions provided for herein, the Company hereby represents and warrants to Lender that:

1.5 Organization, Good Standing and Qualification. The Company is a


corporation duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the State of
Delaware and has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now
conducted. The Company is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing in each
jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify would have a material adverse effect on its business
or properties.

1.6 Authorization. Except for the authorization and issuance of the


Conversion Shares issuable pursuant to Sections 2.3(a) and (b) above, all corporate action has
been taken on the part of the Company, its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for the
authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Notes. Except as may be limited
by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or similar laws relating to or affecting the
enforcement of creditors’ rights, the Company has taken all corporate action required to make all
of the obligations of the Company reflected in the provisions of this Agreement and the Notes
the valid and enforceable obligations they purport to be. The Company has authorized sufficient
shares of Common Stock to allow for conversion of the Notes as described in Section 2.3(c).

1.7 Compliance with Other Instruments. Neither the authorization, execution


and delivery of this Agreement, nor the issuance and delivery of the Notes, will constitute or
result in a material default or violation of any law or regulation applicable to the Company or
any material term or provision of the Company’s current Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws
or any material agreement or instrument by which it is bound or to which its properties or assets
are subject.

SFO 360336v1 0083635-000001 4


1.8 Valid Issuance of Stock. The Conversion Shares to be issued, sold and
delivered upon conversion of the Notes will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and, based in part upon the representations and warranties of Lender in this
Agreement, will be issued in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws.

Representations and Warranties of Lender. In connection with the transactions


provided for herein, Lender hereby represents and warrants to the Company that as of the date
hereof:

1.9 Authorization. This Agreement constitutes Lender’s valid and legally


binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by
(i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or similar laws relating to or affecting the
enforcement of creditors’ rights and (ii) laws relating to the availability of specific performance,
injunctive relief or other equitable remedies. Lender represents that it has full power and
authority to enter into this Agreement.

1.10 Purchase Entirely for Own Account. Lender acknowledges that this
Agreement is made with Lender in reliance upon such Lender’s representation to the Company
that the Notes, the Conversion Shares, and any Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the
Conversion Shares (collectively, the “Securities”) will be acquired for investment for Lender’s
own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any
part thereof, and that Lender has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or
otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, Lender further represents that it
does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell,
transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to the
Securities.

1.11 Disclosure of Information. Lender acknowledges that it has received all


the information it considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to acquire the
Securities. Lender further represents that it has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive
answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of the Securities.

1.12 Investment Experience. Lender is an investor in securities of companies


in the development stage and acknowledges that it is able to fend for itself, can bear the
economic risk of its investment and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business
matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Securities. If
other than an individual, each Lender also represents it has not been organized solely for the
purpose of acquiring the Securities.

1.13 Accredited Investor. Lender is an “accredited investor” within the


meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”),
as presently in effect.

1.14 Restricted Securities. Lender understands that the Securities are


characterized as “restricted securities” under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are
being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under
such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the

SFO 360336v1 0083635-000001 5


Act only in certain limited circumstances. Lender represents that it is familiar with SEC Rule
144, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the
Act.

1.15 Further Limitations on Disposition. Without in any way limiting the


representations and warranties set forth above, Lender further agrees not to make any disposition
of all or any portion of the Securities unless and until the transferee has agreed in writing for the
benefit of the Company to be bound by this Section 5, Section 8.10 and:

(a) There is then in effect a registration statement under the Act


covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such
registration statement; or

(b) (i) Lender has notified the Company of the proposed disposition
and has furnished the Company with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the
proposed disposition and (ii) if reasonably requested by the Company, Lender shall have
furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that
such disposition will not require registration of such shares under the Act. It is agreed that the
Company will not require opinions of counsel for transactions made pursuant to Rule 144 except
in extraordinary circumstances.

1.16 Legends. It is understood that the Securities may bear the following
legend:

“THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
