AIRSHIP AI HOLDINGS, INC.

SENIOR SECURED CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

(the “Note”)

For value received AIRSHIP AI HOLDINGS, INC., a Washington corporation (the “Company”) promises to pay to PLATINUM CAPITAL PARTNERS INC., a British Virgin Islands company (the “Purchaser”, together with its successors and assigns, the “Holder”), at 167, Doiranis str, Suite 500, Kallithea, 17673, Athens, Greece, or at such other address as the holder hereof may from time to time designate in writing, the principal sum of Two Million Dollars (US$2,000,000.00), or such lesser amount as shall be equal to the outstanding principal amount hereof (the “Principal Amount”), together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, upon the terms and conditions specified below. This Note is issued pursuant to that certain Convertible Promissory Note Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated as of June 22, 2023, by and among the Company and the Purchaser. Additional rights of the Purchaser are set forth in the Purchase Agreement. All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings given to them in the Purchase Agreement.

So long as any portion of this Note remains outstanding and unpaid, the Company will comply with the following provisions to which this Note is subject and by which it is governed:

1. Interest. Interest shall accrue on the principal outstanding from time to time, commencing from the Issue Date of this Note and continuing until repayment of this Note in full, at a rate equal to six percent (6.0%) per annum. Upon an Event of Default (as defined below), this Note will bear interest at a default rate of interest equal to the sum of the interest rate set forth in the immediately preceding sentence plus an additional ten percent (10%) per annum (collectively, “Default Interest”). Interest shall accrue on the basis of actual days elapsed in a year consisting of 360 days. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if during any period for which interest is computed under this Note, the amount of interest computed on the basis provided for in this Note, together with all fees, charges and other payments which are treated as interest under applicable law, would exceed the amount of such interest computed on the basis of the Highest Lawful Rate (as defined below), the Company’s obligations hereunder shall, automatically and retroactively, be deemed reduced to the Highest Lawful Rate, and during any such period the interest payable under this Note shall be computed on the basis of the Highest Lawful Rate. In the event the Holder receives as interest an amount which would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, then the amount of any excess interest shall not be applied to the payment of interest hereunder, but shall be applied to the reduction of the unpaid principal balance due hereunder. As used herein, “Highest Lawful Rate” means the maximum non-usurious rate of interest, as in effect from time to time, which may be lawfully charged, contracted for, reserved, received or collected by the Holder in connection with this Note under applicable law.

2. Principal.

(a) Repayment at Maturity. The amount of 110% of the unpaid principal amount of this Note, together with any then unpaid and accrued interest and any other amounts payable hereunder, shall be due and payable on the earlier of (i) the Maturity Date (as defined below) or (ii) when, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amounts are declared due and payable by the Holder or made automatically due and payable, in each case, in accordance with the terms hereof. The “Maturity Date” shall mean June 22, 2024.

(b) Prepayment. The Company may not prepay all or any part of the principal or interest owed under this Note prior to the Maturity Date, except (i) to the extent conversion by the Holder constitutes prepayment, or (ii) acceleration by Holder upon an Event of Default in Section 5, or (iii) in the event of the exercise of the Put by the Holder in accordance with Section 2(c).

(c) Put. In the event the BYTE Merger has not closed by December 22, 2023, then on not less than thirty (30) days written notice to the Company by the Holder thereafter, the Holder may put this Note to the Company and the Company shall pay Holder 110% of the unpaid principal amount of this Note, together with any then unpaid and accrued interest and any other amounts payable hereunder.

3. Payment Terms. Unless earlier converted, all payments of principal and interest shall be in lawful money of the United States of America. Payments under this Note shall be applied first to the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest and then to the payment of principal.

4. Conversion.

(a) General. At any time after the Issue Date until this Note is no longer outstanding, this Note shall be convertible, in whole or in part, into shares (the “Conversion Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, without par value (the “Common Stock”), which such Common Stock shall include such other security that becomes issuable upon conversion of this Note as provide herein, at the option of the Holder, at any time and from time to time. The Holder shall effect conversions by delivering to the Company a Notice of Conversion (each, a “Notice of Conversion”), specifying therein the principal amount of this Note, and amount of accrued and unpaid interest (if any), to be converted and the date on which such conversion shall be effected (such date, the “Conversion Date”). If no Conversion Date is specified in a Notice of Conversion, the Conversion Date shall be the date that such Notice of Conversion is deemed delivered hereunder. To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company unless the entire principal amount of this Note, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, has been so converted. Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering (i) first, accrued and unpaid interest, if so elected by the Holder, and (ii) second, the outstanding principal amount of this Note in an amount equal to the applicable conversion. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the amount(s) converted and the date of such conversion(s). The Company may deliver an objection to any Notice of Conversion within two (2) Business Days of delivery of such Notice of Conversion, stating the basis of such objection and citing the relevant Section of the Note upon which such objection is based. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, the Company and the Holder shall work to resolve such dispute or discrepancy to the mutual satisfaction of both parties. The Holder, and any assignee by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Note, the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of this Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof. Without the consent of the Company, each Notice of Conversion shall provide for principal and/or interest being converted not less than the lower of (A) $250,000, and (B) the outstanding principal on this Note.

(b) Conversion Price. Except as expressly set forth herein, the conversion price per Conversion Share shall be $23.18, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Conversion Price”).

(c) Mechanics of Conversion.

(i) Common Stock Issuable Upon Conversion of Amount. The number of Conversion Shares issuable upon a conversion hereunder shall be determined by the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding amount of this Note to be converted by (y) the Conversion Price.

(ii) Delivery of Certificate Upon Conversion. Not later than three Trading Days after each Conversion Date (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Holder (A) a certificate or certificates representing the Conversion Shares representing the number of Conversion Shares being acquired upon the conversion of this Note and (B) a bank check in the amount of accrued and unpaid interest (unless the Holder has elected to receive Conversion Shares for the accrued and unpaid interest).

(iii) Failure to Deliver Certificates. If, in the case of any Notice of Conversion, such certificate or certificates are not delivered to or as directed by the applicable Holder by the Share Delivery Date, the Holder shall be entitled to elect by written notice to the Company at any time on or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates, to rescind such Notice of Conversion, ab initio, in which event the Company shall promptly return to the Holder any original Note delivered to the Company and the Holder shall promptly return to the Company the Common Stock certificates issued to such Holder pursuant to the rescinded Notice of Conversion.

(iv) Obligation Absolute; Partial Liquidated Damages. The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of such Conversion Shares; provided, however, that such delivery shall not operate as a waiver by the Company of any such action the Company may have against the Holder. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates pursuant to Section 4(c)(ii) by the Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages for the delay in such delivery and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of principal amount being converted $5 per Trading Day (increasing to $10 per Trading Day on the fifth (5^th) Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such Share Delivery Date until such certificates are delivered or the Holder rescinds such conversion. Nothing herein shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of Default pursuant to Section 5 hereof for the Company’s failure to deliver Conversion Shares within the period specified herein and the Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief. The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit the Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law.

(v) Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Conversion. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, during any time that the Common Stock is then listed on a Trading Market, if the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates by the Share Delivery Date pursuant to Section 4(c)(ii), and if after such Share Delivery Date the Holder is required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise), or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Conversion Shares which the Holder was entitled to receive upon the conversion relating to such Share Delivery Date (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder (in addition to any other remedies available to or elected by the Holder) the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including any brokerage commissions) for the Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that the Holder was entitled to receive from the conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the actual sale price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed (including any brokerage commissions) and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reissue (if surrendered) this Note in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of the attempted conversion (in which case such conversion shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if the Company had timely complied with its delivery requirements under Section 4(c)(ii). The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing Common Stock upon conversion of this Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

(vi) Reservation of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion. The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock for the sole purpose of issuance upon conversion of this Note, each as herein provided, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the Holder (and the other holders of the Note). The Company covenants that all Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

(vii) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of this Note. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such conversion, the Company shall at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Conversion Price or round up to the next whole share.

(viii) Transfer Taxes and Expenses. The issuance of certificates for Common Stock on conversion of this Note shall be made without charge to the Holder hereof for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such certificates, provided that, the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name other than that of the Holder of this Note so converted and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the Person or Persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid. The Company shall pay all transfer agent fees required for processing of any Notice of Conversion.

(d) Certain Adjustments.

(i) Stock Dividends and Stock Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Note is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions payable in the class of Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalents (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any Common Stock issued by the Company upon conversion of, or payment of interest on, the Note), (ii) subdivides outstanding Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (iv) issues, in the event of a reclassification of Common Stock, any shares of capital stock of the Company, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Company) outstanding immediately before such event, and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

(ii) Adjustments to Conversion Price for Diluting Issues.

(A) Special Definitions. For purposes of this Section 4, the following definitions shall apply:

(1) “Additional Shares of Common Stock” shall mean all Common Stock issued (or, pursuant to Section 4(d)(ii)(C) below, deemed to be issued) by the Company after the Issue Date; provided, however, shall exclude Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents issued by reason of a dividend, stock split, split-up or other distribution on Common Stock that is covered by Section 4(d)(i), Section 4(d)(iii) or Section 4(d)(iv) herein; provided, further, shall exclude Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents issued under the Company’s 2023 Equity Incentive Plan.

(2) “Common Stock Equivalents” means any securities, instrument or contract which would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Common Stock, including, without limitation, any debt, preferred stock, right, option, warrant or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Common Stock.

(B) No Adjustment of Conversion Price. No adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be made as the result of the issuance or deemed issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock if the Company receives written notice from the Holder agreeing that no such adjustment shall be made as the result of the issuance or deemed issuance of such Additional Shares of Common Stock.

(C) Deemed Issue of Additional Shares of Common Stock.

(1) If the Company at any time or from time to time after the Issue Date shall issue any Common Stock Equivalents or shall fix a record date for the determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive any such Common Stock Equivalents, then the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instrument relating thereto, assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to exercisability, convertibility or exchangeability but without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of Common Stock Equivalents, shall be deemed to be Additional Shares of Common Stock issued as of the time of such issue or, in case such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date.

(2) If the terms of any Common Stock Equivalent, the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to the terms of Section 4(d)(ii)(D), are revised as a result of an amendment to such terms or any other adjustment pursuant to the provisions of such Common Stock Equivalent (but excluding automatic adjustments to such terms pursuant to anti-dilution or similar provisions of such Common Stock Equivalent) to provide for either (1) any increase or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion and/or exchange of any such Common Stock Equivalent or (2) any increase or decrease in the consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise, conversion and/or exchange, then, effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective, the Conversion Price computed upon the original issue of such Common Stock Equivalent (or upon the occurrence of a record date with respect thereto) shall be readjusted to such Conversion Price as would have obtained had such revised terms been in effect upon the original date of issuance of such Common Stock Equivalent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no readjustment pursuant to this clause (2) shall have the effect of increasing the Conversion Price to an amount which exceeds the lower of (i) the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the original adjustment made as a result of the issuance of such Common Stock Equivalent, or (ii) the Conversion Price that would have resulted from any issuances of Additional Shares of Common Stock (other than deemed issuances of Additional Shares of Common Stock as a result of the issuance of such Common Stock Equivalent) between the original adjustment date and such readjustment date.

(3) If the terms of any Common Stock Equivalent, the issuance of which did not result in an adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to the terms of Section 4(d)(ii)(D) (either because the consideration per share (determined pursuant to Section 4(d)(ii)(E) of the Additional Shares of Common Stock subject thereto was equal to or greater than the Conversion Price then in effect, or because such Common Stock Equivalent was issued before the Issue Date), are revised after the Issue Date as a result of an amendment to such terms or any other adjustment pursuant to the provisions of such Common Stock Equivalent (but excluding automatic adjustments to such terms pursuant to anti- dilution or similar provisions of such Common Stock Equivalent) to provide for either (1) any increase in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any such Common Stock Equivalent or (2) any decrease in the consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise, conversion or exchange, then such Common Stock Equivalent, as so amended or adjusted, and the Additional Shares of Common Stock subject thereto (determined in the manner provided in Section 4(d)(ii)(E) shall be deemed to have been issued effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective.

(4) Upon the expiration or termination of any unexercised or unconverted or unexchanged Common Stock Equivalents (or portion thereof) which resulted (either upon its original issuance or upon a revision of its terms) in an adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to the terms of Section 4(d)(ii)(D), the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to such Conversion Price as would have obtained had such Common Stock Equivalent (or portion thereof) never been issued.

(5) If the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion and/or exchange of any Common Stock Equivalent, or the consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise, conversion and/or exchange, is calculable at the time such Common Stock Equivalent is issued or amended but is subject to adjustment based upon subsequent events, any adjustment to the Conversion Price provided for in this Section 4(d)(ii) shall be effected at the time of such issuance or amendment based on such number of shares or amount of consideration without regard to any provisions for subsequent adjustments (and any subsequent adjustments shall be treated as provided in clauses (2) and (3) of this Section 4(d)(ii)(C)). If the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion and/or exchange of any Common Stock Equivalent, or the consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise, conversion and/or exchange, cannot be calculated at all at the time such Common Stock Equivalent is issued or amended, any adjustment to the Conversion Price that would result under the terms of this Section 4(d)(ii)(C) at the time of such issuance or amendment shall instead be effected at the time such number of shares and/or amount of consideration is first calculable (even if subject to subsequent adjustments), assuming for purposes of calculating such adjustment to the Conversion Price that such issuance or amendment took place at the time such calculation can first be made.

(D) Adjustment of Conversion Price Upon Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock. In the event the Company shall at any time after the Issue Date issue Additional Shares of Common Stock (including Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued pursuant to Section 4(d)(ii)(C), without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or deemed issuance, then the Conversion Price shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue, to a price (calculated to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent) determined in accordance with the following formula:

CP₂ = CP₁* (A + B) ÷ (A + C).

For purposes of the foregoing formula, the following definitions shall apply:

“CP₂” shall mean the Conversion Price in effect immediately after such issuance or deemed issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock

“CP₁” shall mean the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or deemed issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock;

“A” shall mean the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance or deemed issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock (treating for this purpose as outstanding all Common Stock issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange of Common Stock Equivalents outstanding immediately prior to such issue);

“B” shall mean the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if such Additional Shares of Common Stock had been issued or deemed issued at a price per share equal to CP1 (determined by dividing the aggregate consideration received by the Company in respect of such issue by CP1); and

“C” shall mean the number of such Additional Shares of Common Stock issued in such transaction.

(E) Determination of Consideration. For purposes of this Section 4, the consideration received by the Company for the issuance or deemed issuance of any Additional Shares of Common Stock shall be computed as follows:

(1) Cash and Property. Such consideration shall (x) insofar as it consists of cash, be computed at the aggregate amount of cash received by the Company, excluding amounts paid or payable for accrued interest; (y) insofar as it consists of property other than cash, be computed at the fair market value thereof at the time of such issue, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company; and (z) in the event Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued together with other shares or securities or other assets of the Company for consideration which covers both, be the proportion of such consideration so received, computed as provided in clauses (x) and (y) above, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company; provided, however, the Holder may promptly object to either such determination by the Board of Directors and the fair market value shall be determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holder and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.

(2) Common Stock Equivalents. The consideration per share received by the Company for Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 4(d)(ii)(C) relating to Common Stock Equivalents, shall be determined by dividing: (y) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issue of such Common Stock Equivalents, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such consideration) payable to the Company upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of such Common Stock Equivalents, by (z) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of such Common Stock Equivalents.

(iii) Subsequent Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 4(d)(i) and Section 4(d)(ii) above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

(iv) Pro Rata Distributions. During such time as this Note is outstanding, if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Note, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Note (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial ownership of any Common Stock as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

(v) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 5 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 5, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Company) issued and outstanding.

(e) Notice to the Holder.

(i) Adjustment to Conversion Price. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 4, the Company shall promptly deliver to each Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

(ii) Notice to Allow Conversion by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on Common Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby Common Stock are converted into other securities, cash or property or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of this Note, and shall cause to be delivered to the Holder at its last address as it shall appear upon the Note Register, at least twenty (20) calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified (or such shorter period as is reasonably possible, but not less than ten (10) calendar days, if twenty (20) calendar days is not reasonably possible), a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, or the date on which the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company was authorized, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon any such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, share exchange, or voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non- public information regarding the Company, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K or if it is not subject to the reporting requirements of the Commission, a press release. The Holder shall remain entitled to convert this Note during the 20-day period commencing on the date of such notice through the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.

(f) Adjustment to Conversion Upon BYTE Merger.

(i) BYTE Alternate Consideration. If, at any time while this Note is outstanding, the effective time of the merger between BYTE Acquisition Corporation, a Cayman Islands company (“BYTE”) and the Company pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement dated on or about June 22, 2023 (the “BYTE Merger”) occurs, then, upon any subsequent conversion of this Note, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of the BYTE Merger, at the option of the Holder, the same kind of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of the BYTE Merger if it had been, immediately prior to the BYTE Merger, the holder of one (1) share of Common Stock (the “BYTE Alternate Consideration”).

(ii) BYTE Alternate Consideration Conversion Price. For purposes of any conversion following the BYTE Merger, the Conversion Price shall be the lower of (A) $6.50 for each unit or share of BYTE Alternate Consideration, subject to appropriate adjustment as provided in Section 4(d), and (B) 65% of the VWAP for the BYTE Alternate Consideration for the preceding five (5) Trading Days immediately prior to any conversion by the Holder, but (C) in no event shall the Conversion Price be below $4.00, subject to appropriate adjustment as provided in Section 4(d).

(iii) BYTE Note. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, BYTE shall issue to the Holder a new Note consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder’s right to convert such Note into BYTE Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a BYTE Merger is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this Section 5(f).

(iv) The Company shall cause any BYTE or such other successor entity, which, if applicable, shall be an entity with a class of securities registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) under the Exchange Act, in the BYTE Merger (the “BYTE Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Note and the other Transaction Documents pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) prior to such BYTE Merger and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Note a security of the BYTE Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Note which is convertible for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such BYTE Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Note (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Note) prior to such BYTE Merger, and with a conversion price as provided above, such number of shares of capital stock and such conversion price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Note immediately prior to the consummation of such BYTE Merger), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such BYTE Merger, the BYTE Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such BYTE Merger, the provisions of this Note and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the BYTE Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Note and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such BYTE Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.

(g) Adjustment to Conversion Upon Fundamental Transaction.

(i) Alternate Consideration. If, at any time while this Note is outstanding but prior to the BYTE Merger, the Company effects a Fundamental Transaction, then, upon any subsequent conversion of this Note, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder, such capital stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Note is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction.

(ii) Alternate Consideration Conversion Price. For purposes of any conversion following a Fundamental Transaction, the determination of the Conversion Price shall be the lower of (A) the Conversion Price then in effect immediately prior to the Fundamental Transaction for each unit or share of Alternate Consideration, and (B) 65% of the value of the Alternate Consideration paid on one (1) share of Common Stock in the Fundamental Transaction. For purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Conversion Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one (1) share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Conversion Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion of this Note following such Fundamental Transaction.

(iii) New Note. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Note and the other Transaction Documents pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Note a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Note which is convertible for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Note (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Note) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with a conversion price as provided above, such number of shares of capital stock and such conversion price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Note immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Note and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Note and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section shall not apply to the acquisitions contemplated by the BYTE Merger.

(h) Adjustment to Conversion Upon Next Equity Financing. If, at any time while this Note is outstanding but prior to the BYTE Merger, the Company engages in a Next Equity Financing, then the Conversion Price shall be adjusted to the lower of (A) the Conversion Price after giving effect to the Next Equity Financing on the anti-dilution provisions of Section 4(d), or (B) sixty-five percent (65%) of the Next Equity Financing Price.

(i) Definitions.

(i) “Fundamental Transaction” means the Company, directly or indirectly through any Subsidiary, effects:

(A) the closing of the sale, transfer or other disposition, in a single transaction or series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or the exclusive license of all or substantially all of the Company’s material intellectual property;

(B) the consummation of a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity (except a merger or consolidation in which the holders of capital stock of the Company immediately prior to such merger or consolidation continue to hold a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the capital stock of the Company or the surviving or acquiring entity immediately following the consummation of such transaction); or

(C) the closing of the transfer (whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise), in a single transaction or series of related transactions, to a “person” or “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d) and Section 14(d) of the Exchange Act) of the Company’s capital stock if, after such closing, such person or group would become the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Company (or the surviving or acquiring entity).

For the avoidance of doubt, a transaction will not constitute a “Fundamental Transaction” if its sole purpose is to change the state of the Company’s incorporation or to create a holding company that will be owned in substantially the same proportions by the persons who held the Company’s securities immediately prior to such transaction.

(ii) “Equity Securities” means (a) Common Stock; (b) any securities conferring the right to purchase Common Stock; or (c) any securities directly or indirectly convertible into, or exchangeable for (with or without additional consideration) Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following will not be considered “Equity Securities”: (i) any security granted, issued or sold by the Company to any director, officer, employee, consultant or adviser of the Company for the primary purpose of soliciting or retaining their services; (ii) any convertible promissory notes (including the Notes) issued by the Company; and (iii) any SAFEs issued by the Company.

(iii) “Fully Diluted Capitalization” means the number of issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock, assuming (A) the conversion or exercise of all of the Company’s outstanding convertible or exercisable securities, including all outstanding vested or unvested options or warrants to purchase the Company’s Common Stock, and (B) the issuance of all shares of the Company’s Common Stock reserved and available for future issuance under any of the Company’s existing equity incentive plans.

(iv) “Next Equity Financing” means the next sale (or series of related sales) by the Company of its Equity Securities following the date of this Agreement, in one or more offerings relying on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act or Regulation D thereunder for exemption from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act, with the principal purpose of raising capital and from which the Company receives aggregate gross proceeds of not less than $2,000,000.

(v) “Next Equity Financing Price” means the lowest price per share for which any Equity Securities are sold or issued by the Company in the Next Equity Financing.

(vi) “VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if the Common Stock is quoted for trading on the OTCQB or OTCQX, as applicable, and if the OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, or (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported in The Pink Open Market (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported.

(vii) “Trading Market” means any of the following markets or exchanges on which the Common Stock is listed or quoted for trading on the date in question: the NYSE American, the Nasdaq Capital Market, the Nasdaq Global Market, the Nasdaq Global Select Market, the New York Stock Exchange, OTCQB or OTCQX (or any successors to any of the foregoing).

(j) Beneficial Ownership Limitation. The Company shall not effect any conversion of this Note, and the Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Note, pursuant to Section 4 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after conversion as set forth on the applicable Notice of Conversion, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, nonconverted portion of this Note beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Common Stock Equivalents) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 4(j), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 4(j) applies, the determination of whether this Note is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Note is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Conversion shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Note is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Note is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 4(j), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Note, by the Holder or its Affiliates or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note. The Holder, upon notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 4(j). Any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 4(j) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Note. This Section 4(j) shall apply only in the event that the Common Stock is registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) under the Exchange Act.

5. Events of Acceleration. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and so long as any Event of Default is continuing, the Holder may, with the written consent of the Holder, declare the entire unpaid balance of this Note, together with all accrued and unpaid interest on this Note, to be immediately due and payable prior to the Maturity Date (in the case of any occurrence of any of the events described in paragraphs (c) and (d) below, this Note shall become automatically due and payable, including unpaid interest accrued hereon, without notice or demand). In the event the Company fails to make any payment of principal or accrued interest on this Note to Holder when due after demand is made in accordance herewith, Holder will be entitled to exercise all rights and remedies available to it without the consent or approval of any other party and the Company will reimburse Holder for its reasonable costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with the enforcement of its rights under this Note. In addition to any other rights Holder may have under applicable laws, during an Event of Default, Holder shall have the right to set off the indebtedness evidenced by this Note against any other indebtedness of the Holder to the Company. For purposes of this Section 6, each of the following events will constitute an “Event of Default”:

(a) Failure to Pay. The Company shall fail to pay (i) when due any principal payment on the due date hereunder, including Section 2(c), or (ii) any interest payment or other payment required under the terms of this Note or the Security Agreement (as defined below) on the date due and such payment shall not have been made within five (5) days following the date when due.

(b) Failure to Comply. The Company shall fail to comply in any material respect with the terms, conditions and covenants of the Notes or the Security Agreement including, without limitation, any representation or warranty provided herein or pursuant to the Security Agreement is untrue or incorrect in any material respect as to Company.

(c) Voluntary Bankruptcy or Insolvency Proceedings. The Company shall (i) apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or custodian of itself or of all or a substantial part of its property, (ii) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they mature, (iii) make a general assignment for the benefit of its or any of its creditors, (iv) be dissolved or liquidated, (v) commence a voluntary case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to itself or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or consent to any such relief or to the appointment of or taking possession of its property by any official in an involuntary case or other proceeding commenced against it, or (vi) take any action for the purpose of effecting any of the foregoing.

(d) Involuntary Bankruptcy or Insolvency Proceedings. Proceedings for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or custodian of the Company, or of all or a substantial part of the property thereof, or an involuntary case or other proceedings seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to the Company, if any, or the debts thereof under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect shall be commenced and an order for relief entered or such proceeding shall not be dismissed or discharged within 90 days of commencement.

(e) Cross Default. A default (however denominated or defined) shall occur under any other indebtedness for borrowed money (not covered hereunder) of the Company, which shall not have been cured within applicable notice and grace periods and the holders thereof shall have accelerated payment of such indebtedness.

(f) Judgments. A final non-appealable judgment or order for the payment of money shall be rendered against the Company and the same shall remain undischarged for a period of thirty (30) days during which execution shall not be effectively stayed, or any judgment, writ, assessment, warrant of attachment, or execution or similar process shall be issued or levied against a substantial part of the Company’s property, if any and such judgment, writ, or similar process shall not be released, stayed, vacated or otherwise dismissed within thirty (30) days after issue or levy.

6. Security Agreement. This Note is secured pursuant to a Security Agreement by and between the Company and the Holder (as the same may be amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Security Agreement”).

7. No Stockholder Rights. This Note, as such, shall not entitle the Holder to any rights as a stockholder of the Company.

8. Portfolio Interest.

(a) Portfolio Interest. It is intended that all interest paid hereunder, including the original issue discount or Default Interest or otherwise, shall constitute “portfolio interest” within the meaning of Section 871(h) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. Holder represents that it is not a United States person. Any United States person who does hold any obligation of the Company under this Note is subject to limitations under the United States income tax laws.

(b) Non-U.S. Person. Whenever this Note is held by a noteholder that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, then it is the intention of the Company and such noteholder that (i) all interest accrued and paid on this Note will qualify for exemption from United States withholding tax as “portfolio interest” because this Note is an obligation which is in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 871(h)(2)(B) and 881(c)(2)(B) of the Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and (ii) as such, all interest accrued and paid on this Note will be exempt from United States information reporting under Sections 6041 and 6049 of the Code and United States backup withholding under Section 3406 of the Code. The Company and the Holder shall cooperate with one another, and execute and file such forms or other documents, or do or refrain from doing such other acts, as may be required, to secure such exemptions from United States withholding tax, information reporting, and backup withholding.

(c) Transferees. In furtherance of the foregoing, any transferee or assignee noteholder that is not a United States person shall represent, warrant and covenant to the Company that (i) such noteholder is not, and will not be as long as any amounts due under this Note have not been paid in full, a “United States person,” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, (ii) such noteholder is not, and will not be as long as any amounts due under this Note have not been paid in full, a person described in Section 881(c)(3) of the Code, (iii) on or prior to the date of transfer or assignment (and on or prior to the date the form provided pursuant to this clause (iii) is no longer valid) until all amounts due under this Note have been paid in full, such noteholder shall provide the Company with a properly executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-8BEN, Certificate of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner for United States Tax Withholding (or any successor form prescribed by the IRS), certifying as to such noteholder’s status for purposes of determining exemption from United States withholding tax, information reporting and backup withholding with respect to all payments to be made to such noteholder hereunder, and (iv) if an event occurs that would require a change in the exempt status of such noteholder or any of the other information provided on the most recent IRS Form W-8BEN (or successor form) previously submitted by such noteholder to the Company, such noteholder will so inform the Company in writing (or by submitting to the Company a new IRS Form W-8BEN or successor form) within thirty days after the occurrence of such event.

(d) Registered Note. In order to qualify as a “registered note” for purposes of the Code, transfer of this Note may be effected only by surrender of this Note to the Company and the re-issuance of this Note to the transferee, or the Company’s issuance to the Holder of a new note in the same form as this Note but with the transferee denoted as Holder. It is the intention of the Company and Holder that this Note is to be a registered instrument and not a bearer instrument and the provisions of this Note are to be interpreted accordingly. This Note is intended to be registered as to both principal and interest and all payments hereunder shall be made to the named Holder or, in the event of a transfer pursuant to this Note, to the transferee identified in the record of ownership of this Note maintained by the Holder on behalf of the Company. The terms and conditions of this Note shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and Holder and their permitted assigns.

9. Miscellaneous.

(a) Waivers. The Company hereby waives demand for payment, notice of dishonor, presentment, protest and notice of protest. No failure or delay on the part of the holder of this Note in exercising any power or right under this Note shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof of the exercise of any other power or right. No notice to or demand on the Company in any case shall entitle the Company to any notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(b) Amendment. This Note may not be amended or modified, nor may any of its terms be waived, except by written instrument signed by the Company and the Holder.

(c) Binding; Successors and Assigns. If any provision of this Note is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part, the validity, legality and enforceability of any of the remaining provisions or portions of this Note shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, and this Note shall nevertheless be binding between the Company and the Holder. This Note shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Company, the Holder and their respective successors and assigns.

(d) Governing Law. This Note shall be governed by the internal law of the State of New York, without regard to conflict of law principles that would result in the application of any law other than the law of the State of New York.

(f) Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS NOTE, THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS, THE SECURITIES OR THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF OR THEREOF. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL- ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS. THIS SECTION HAS BEEN FULLY DISCUSSED BY EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND THESE PROVISIONS WILL NOT BE SUBJECT TO ANY EXCEPTIONS. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT SUCH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL, AND THAT SUCH PARTY KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL.

(g) Notices. All notices or other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be governed by Section 6.5 of the Purchase Agreement.

(h) Time of the Essence; Remedies. Time is of the essence of this Note. The rights and remedies under this Note are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges that may otherwise be available to the Holder.

(i) Severability. If one or more provisions of this Note are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be excluded from this Note, the balance of the Note shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms, and the parties shall use good faith to negotiate a substitute, valid and enforceable provision that replaces the excluded provision and that most nearly effects the parties’ intent in entering into this Note.

(j) Entire Note. This Note and the Security Agreement constitute the full and entire understanding, promise and agreement between the Company and the Holder with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersede, merge and render void every other prior written and/or oral understanding, promise or agreement between the Company and the Holder with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.
