CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Report”) contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, among others, information concerning our strategy, future operations, future financial position, future revenue, projected expenses, business prospects, and plans and objectives of management. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by terms such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would,” or similar expressions and the negatives of those terms. These statements relate to future events or to our future operating or financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements contained in this Report include, but are not limited to, statements about the following:
| ● | the Company operates in the early-stage market of modern energy economy (“MEE”) adoption (which includes AI-powered electrification and distributed energy) and has a history of losses and expects to incur significant ongoing expenses; |
| ● | the Company’s management has limited experience in operating a public company; |
| ● | the Company has identified material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting and if it is unable to remediate these material weaknesses, or if the Company identifies additional material weaknesses in the future or otherwise fails to maintain an effective internal control over financial reporting, this may result in material misstatements of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or cause the Company to fail to meet its periodic reporting obligations; |
| ● | the Company’s growth strategy depends on the widespread adoption of MEE Services; |
| ● | if the Company cannot compete successfully against other MEE Service Providers, it may not be successful in developing its operations and its business may suffer; |
| ● | with respect to providing electricity on a price-competitive basis, solar systems face competition from traditional regulated electric utilities, from less-regulated third party energy service providers and from new renewable energy companies; |
| ● | the Company’s market is characterized by rapid technological change, which requires it to continue to develop new products and product innovations. Any delays in such development could adversely affect market adoption of its products and its financial results; |
| ● | developments in alternative technologies may materially adversely affect demand for the Company’s offerings; and |
| ● | the possibility that we may be adversely affected by other economic, business or competitive factors and may not be able to manage other risks and uncertainties set forth in the section titled “Risk Factors,” which is incorporated herein by reference. |
We caution you that the foregoing list does not contain all of the risks or uncertainties that could affect the Company.
Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those described in “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Report. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment, and new risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this Report may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Also, forward-looking statements represent our management’s beliefs and assumptions only as of the date of this Report. You should read this Report and the documents that we have filed as exhibits hereto, completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect.
Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements publicly, or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF AND FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2026 AND 2025
NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS
ConnectM Technology Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”, “we” and/or “our”), a Delaware corporation, conducts its operations through its subsidiaries as a constellation of technology-driven businesses powering the modern energy economy. The Company’s mission is to reshape how energy is used in homes, businesses, infrastructure, and logistics to create a higher quality of life, lower costs, and help chart a course for a more sustainable future.
The Company’s continuing operations are primarily focused on DeliveryCircle, asset-light logistics technology subsidiary, Keen Labs, the Company’s wholly owned AI and technology subsidiary, and Harry Kahn Associates, Inc, (“HKA”), the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary.
The Company delivers solutions to its customers for (i) the decarbonization of homes, critical infrastructure and businesses through energy management-as-a-service offerings, including weatherization, HVAC, solar, and through the wholesale distribution of AI-enabled heat pump equipment and smart controls, (ii) the facilitation of business-to-business transportation through its online and mobile last-mile delivery platform utilizing contracted drivers, and (iii) the management of connected operations through its industrial internet of things (“IIoT”) platform. These offerings are integrated and optimized through the Company’s proprietary platform, developed and continuously enhanced by Keen Labs, its AI and technology subsidiary.
DeliveryCircle operates an online and mobile last-mile delivery platform that utilizes independent contracted drivers to facilitate business-to-business transportation.
On April 3, 2026, the Company acquired
The Company’s OSN segment provides energy solutions directly to residential, commercial and enterprise customers. OSN’s operations primarily include the installation, maintenance and servicing of electrified heating and cooling systems and distributed energy solutions, including solar and battery systems. The installed equipment is supported by the Company’s AI-driven energy intelligence platform, which enables monitoring of equipment performance and efficiency and facilitates the identification of maintenance requirements.
The Company also offers physical products as part of its solutions offerings. These include AI-enabled heat pump systems for use in the decarbonization of homes and businesses, as well as solar panels, inverters, battery storage systems, and related balance-of-system components, which are procured and distributed by the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Keen Labs Operations, Inc., to installation partners, including Sun Solar, LLC.
The Company’s platform and associated software continuously collect and analyze operational data, generating actionable insights that customers use for monitoring, optimization and decision-making, and enabling applications such as predictive maintenance and virtual power plant integration.
The Company previously provided managed solutions offerings, including human resources management, procurement services, omnichannel marketing and lead generation services, and access to working capital solutions designed to improve operating efficiency and enhance profitability for service providers. The Company is currently evaluating to cease to provide managed solution services.
The Company is actively rationalizing its segment portfolio to focus on its highest-quality, U.S. based verticals that contribute positively to operating results. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company continued to streamline certain HVAC, solar, and other home service operations within the Owned Service Network segment as the Company shifted its decarbonization strategy toward product-led and technology-enabled offerings.

NOTE 2: BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation: The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company has evaluated its relationships with other entities and has determined that it does not have any variable interest entities for which it is the primary beneficiary. Any reference in these footnotes to the applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative U.S. GAAP as found in the ASC and Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).
These condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its majority owned subsidiaries, and its controlled subsidiaries over which the Company exercises majority board control; investment in joint ventures, in which the Company shares equal control with its partner, are accounted for under the equity method. Intercompany accounts, transactions, profits and losses have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in entities where the Company holds at least a 20% ownership interest and has the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the investee are accounted for using the equity method of accounting.
These condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in United States Dollars (“USD” or $), which is the functional currency of the Company.
These interim consolidated statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, which permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, changes in stockholders’ equity, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 was derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. The operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026 or any other interim period. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for

the year ended December 31, 2025, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 16, 2026.

During the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, management identified certain changes to the Company’s previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, which were included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2025. Management evaluated the errors, individually and in the aggregate, and concluded that they were not significant to the Company’s previously issued condensed consolidated financial statements for the prior period. Accordingly, amendment of the prior filing is not required. However, management determined that the errors should be corrected by revising the applicable prior-period financial information presented herein. The revisions to the previously reported financial information primarily resulted from the following:
| ● | Interim Period revisions: In connection with the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company identified certain insignificant adjustments that were attributable to prior interim periods. Accordingly, the comparative condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 have been revised to reflect the effects of these adjustments in the appropriate periods. The following were the adjustments made: |
| i) | Certain costs had been capitalized as intangible assets during prior interim periods although the applicable capitalization criteria had not been met. These amounts were subsequently reversed as of December 31, 2025, and have been reflected in the appropriate prior interim periods. The adjustment resulted in an increase of approximately $ |
| ii) | Certain moulds used in the manufacturing of chips had previously been classified as inventory, although such classification did not appropriately reflect their nature and use in the Company’s operations. These amounts were subsequently reclassified from inventory to property and equipment in the Company’s Form 10-K filing. Although the reclassification and related depreciation were appropriately reflected in the Form 10-K, the moulds and related amounts were not correctly presented in the Company’s previously filed Form 10-Q filings. Accordingly, depreciation on such molds has been computed and recorded in the appropriate prior interim periods to reflect their use in operations. Accordingly, the Company recorded approximately $ |
| iii) | Certain expenses previously classified within selling, general and administrative expenses were reclassified to cost of revenue to better reflect the nature of the underlying costs. The reclassification was approximately $ |
| iv) | The Company identified a classification difference in December 31, 2025 financial statement whereby changes in the fair value of debt instruments related to its section 3(a)(10) immediately prior to extinguishment were recorded within gain/(loss) on extinguishment of debt and additional paid in capital instead of gain/(loss) on change in fair value. The effects of these revisions, which were previously reflected as part of the year-end adjustments, have been reflected in the appropriate prior interim periods. The revisions included adjustments of approximately $ |
| v) | The Company identified an additional allowance for expected credit losses that should have been recognized as of June 30, 2025. Accordingly, the Company recorded an additional provision for expected credit losses of approximately $ |
| vi) | The Company identified certain revenue that had previously been deferred but for which the applicable revenue recognition criteria were satisfied during the prior interim period. Accordingly, revenue for the applicable prior period was increased by approximately . |
| vii) | The Company identified certain expenses for which accruals had not been recorded in the appropriate prior interim periods. Accordingly, the Company recorded additional accrued expenses of approximately $ |
9
| ● | Discontinued operations: On June 17, 2026, the Company completed the disposition of its GIX operations. As a result, the GIX operations qualified for presentation as discontinued operations. Accordingly, the comparative condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 have been retrospectively revised to present the results of the GIX operations as discontinued operations. (see Note 4) |
The impact of the adjustment on the line items within the previously reported unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 included in the Company’s Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on September 16, 2025 are as follows:

Use of estimates: The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of financial assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the consolidated financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. The Company’s most significant estimates and judgments involve the identification of intangible assets and goodwill in business combination, and determination of their useful life, valuation of acquired assets and assumed liabilities in a business combination, assessment of financial instruments as equity or liability, valuation of equity-classified and liability classified financial instruments, the useful lives of long-lived assets and identified intangible assets, assumptions used in assessing impairment of long lived assets, identified intangible assets and goodwill, valuation of contingent consideration obligations, valuation of Purchase Price Allocation (“PPA”) for assets acquisition and convertible debt reported at fair value.
Segment reporting: ASC 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”), defines operating segments as components of an enterprise where discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s CODM is the chief executive officer, who has ultimate responsibility for the operating performance of the Company and the allocation of resources.
The Company reported its results through
Below are five operating and reportable segments based on the level at which the CODM reviews operating results, assesses performance and makes decisions regarding resource allocation as follows:
(1) | Owned service network segment consists of our owned service providers who serve as a single point solution provider for enterprises, infrastructure providers, homeowners, and light commercial building owners for their electrification and decarbonization needs, including system design, installation, monitoring, maintenance and repair of solar energy systems and HVAC solutions. The owned service providers use the Company’s technology platform, which provides maintenance, repair, and installation guidance and optimization (the “Technology Platform”), in servicing the homeowners and light commercial building owners. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company continued to streamline certain HVAC, solar, and other home service operations within the Owned Service Network segment as the Company shifted its strategy toward product-led and technology-enabled offerings. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had not authorized and approved a plan to sell and continued to evaluate multiple strategic alternatives. Accordingly, the disposal group did not meet the criteria for classification as held for sale under ASC 205-20-45-1E as management had not committed to a plan of sale and a sale was not considered probable within one year. |
(2) | Managed solutions segment provides third party residential and light commercial service providers with access to the Technology Platform as well as a selection of servicing offerings that the managed solutions customer can select from, including human resources management, procurement services, omnichannel marketing and lead generation as well as access to short-term working capital loans. The Company terminated its last remaining managed service agreement in April 2026, and this segment is expected to be eliminated as a reportable segment beginning in the third quarter of 2026. As the Company continues to focus on its strategy toward product-led and technology-enabled offerings and as part of this strategy, the Company terminated its managed service solution agreement. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had not authorized and approved a plan to sell and continued to evaluate multiple strategic alternatives for this segment. Accordingly, the termination of services did not meet the criteria for classification as held for sale under ASC 205-20-45-1E as management had not committed to a plan of sale and a sale was not considered probable within one year, consider this the segment is presented as held-and-used in these condensed consolidated financial statements. |
11
(3) | Keen Labs segment focuses on the development of AI, control, and energy intelligence platforms that underpin the Company’s modern energy economy solutions, conducted primarily through Keen Labs Operations, Inc. The segment’s portfolio includes industrial IoT hardware, the Hi-C™ line of hybrid energy storage systems, the Hi-E™ line of lithium iron phosphate long - duration and virtual power plant (“VPP”)-enabling storage systems, smart heat pumps, and connected vehicle technologies, each integrated through the segment’s software platform to optimize performance across fleets, facilities, and distributed energy assets. The segment also conducts the Company’s U.S. wholesale procurement and distribution of solar panels, inverters, batteries, and related balance-of-system components to installation partners under VPP kit supply arrangements. |
(4) | Logistics segment focuses on the facilitation of business-to-business transportation of heavy goods using the Company’s last mile delivery software. |
(5) | Other segment - Comprises corporate-level operations and the Company’s HKA subsidiary, this segment generated de minimis revenue during the periods presented, consisting of less than $ |
The following segments have been divested as a result of disposal of the transaction described in Note 4:
(1) | Distributed Energy & Renewables (“DER”) focuses on the delivery of solar and distributed energy solutions for commercial, residential, consumer, and industrial customers in India, including project development, EPC services and ongoing energy management, conducted through the Company’s Cambridge Energy Resources (“CER”) subsidiary. The DER segment’s operations are included within the scope of the Blue Cloud transaction. |
(2) | Transportation segment focuses on the sale of hardware, software and technical services for electric vehicles to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”). OEMs have the option to buy access to the Technology Platform to remotely monitor the performance of the hardware. |
Revenue Recognition: The Company follows the guidance of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). Under ASC 606, revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring those goods or services. The Company’s revenue is generated from customers located in the U.S. and India.
Revenue is recognized based on a five step model that includes (1) Identification of the contract with a customer, (2) Identification of the performance obligations in the contract, (3) Determination of the transaction price, (4) A location of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, (5) Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
Installation and Maintenance Services
Our installation services encompass both solar energy systems and HVAC solutions, including system design, procurement and delivery of key components, and full installation. Solar energy system components typically include photovoltaic modules, inverters, battery storage systems, and related equipment, while HVAC installations include heating, ventilation, and air conditioning units, ductwork, and control systems. These services also include activities required to integrate the systems with existing infrastructure and, where applicable, facilitate connection to the electrical grid. These services represent multiple performance obligations that are combined into a single unit of accounting. Each transaction is a distinct performance obligation, priced on a standalone basis. The transaction price is determined at service or contract inception and reflects the amount of consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for the services provided to the customer and is reported net of discounts that may be offered. Discounts, if any, are genera ly explicitly stated in a contract as a fixed percentage of the transaction price related to the performance obligations within the contract.
Our operations are organized into two primary categories: Solar and HVAC installation and maintenance services to customers.
For all installation and maintenance contracts as mentioned above, we recognize revenue over time. Our over-time revenue recognition begins when the solar power systems and HVAC solutions are fully installed (as it is at this point that control of the assets begins to be transferred to the customer and the customer retains the significant risks and rewards of ownership). For certain Installation and maintenance services which have significant installation period, we recognize revenue using the input method based on direct costs to install the systems and defer the costs of installation until such time that that control of the assets transfers to the customer (installation).
12
In applying cost-based input methods of revenue recognition, the Company uses the actual costs incurred for installation and obtaining the permission to operate, each relative to the total estimated cost to determine the Company’s progress towards contract completion and to calculate the corresponding amount of revenue and gross profit to recognize. Cost based input methods of revenue recognition are considered a faithful depiction of the Company’s efforts to satisfy these certain specific Installation and maintenance contracts and therefore reflect the transfer of goods to a customer under such contracts. Costs incurred towards contract completion may include costs associated with modules, direct materials, labor, subcontractors, and other indirect costs related to contract performance.
Certain specific installation and maintenance contracts with very short installation period are typically completed within one to two weeks, and invoicing generally occurs upon completion of performance. Given the short-term nature of these contracts, the Company has elected to apply the “as-invoiced” practical expedient under ASC 606-10-55-18, as the invoiced amount corresponds directly with the value of the services transferred to the customer at each bi ling. The output method is considered the most faithful depiction of the Company’s performance for these contracts because, unlike the input method used for longer-duration installation and maintenance contracts, the short contract duration and direct correspondence between invoiced amounts and value delivered to the customer make cost-based progress measurement unnecessary. Accordingly, revenue is recognized in the amount invoiced.
The Company also sells a range of ConnectM-branded heat pump products directly to customers, including under specific distribution agreements such as with Greentech Renewables. Revenue from heat pump product sales is recognized at a point in time when control transfers to the customer, which generally occurs upon delivery. The Company sells solar energy and battery storage systems and heat pump products to residential and commercial customers and recognizes revenue net of sales taxes collected from customers and remitted to government authorities.
Logistics Services
Logistics services revenue consists of delivery fees paid by customers for completed deliveries through DeliveryCircle’s proprietary Decios platform. DeliveryCircle acts as a principal in its delivery arrangements, as it controls the delivery service before it is transferred to the customer, directs the carriers who perform the deliveries, bears primary responsibility for fulfilment, has discretion in establishing pricing, and assumes inventory and credit risk. Accordingly, delivery service revenue is presented gross.
Each customer order submitted into the Platform constitutes a single performance obligation representing a delivery service from a single point of origin to a limited number of destinations. The Company has determined that delivery services qualify for over-time revenue recognition under ASC 606-10-25-27(a), as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of DeliveryCircle’s performance as each delivery is performed — the service results in transportation of the customer’s parcels to end locations, and if DeliveryCircle were to cease performing at any point, another provider would not need to reperform the work already completed to date.
The Company measures progress toward satisfaction of the performance obligation using the output method based on deliveries completed, applying the right-to-invoice practical expedient under ASC 606-10-55-18. Since the duration of each delivery service is short and the invoice amount is contractually determined at the time the order is submitted, the invoiced amount corresponds directly with the value of the Company’s performance completed to date and faithfully depicts the transfer of services. The output method is considered the most faithful depiction of the transfer of services because each completed delivery represents a discrete, directly observable unit of value transferred to the customer, and the very short performance period makes cost-based input measures unnecessary for faithfully depicting transfer of control.
The transaction price for each delivery order is substantially fixed at the time the order is submitted into the Platform, as the number of items, destination zones, and applicable per-unit rates are established at that point. Delivery service fees and per-order minimum purchase requirements represent fixed consideration determined on a per-order basis. Fuel surcharges, while adjusted monthly based on a national average fuel rate, are fixed at the time each order is entered and do not represent variable consideration. Waiting fees, which are incurred when a carrier waits beyond a specified time at pick-up or drop-off locations, represent variable consideration as the amounts are not determinable until delivery is completed. The Company includes variable consideration in the transaction price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty is subsequently resolved. Given the short-term nature of each delivery, the limited magnitude of waiting fees relative to total delivery fees, and the Company’s historical experience, the constraint on variable consideration has not had a material impact on revenue recognized during the periods presented.
Revenue is generally billed on a weekly basis with payment terms of net 14 days. The Company excludes from revenue the taxes collected from customers and remitted to government authorities.
13
Managed Solutions
Managed solutions revenue represents support services provided to a customer, including human resources and payroll administration, procurement and vendor management, marketing and lead generation, working capital and financing facilitation, and business implementation services including technology platform onboarding. While each of these services is individually capable of being distinct — as the customer could benefit from each service on its own or together with other readily available resources under ASC 606-10-25-19(a) — the Company has determined that the services are not separately identifiable within the context of the contract under ASC 606-10-25-19(b) and are therefore combined into a single performance obligation. Specifically, the Company provides a significant service of integrating the individual services into a single, unified managed services model, and is responsible for coordinating, managing, and overseeing all service elements. The services are highly interdependent and interrelated, are designed to be delivered together, and no individual service provides meaningful standalone benefit within the context of the contract; removing or modifying any individual service would significantly affect the overall arrangement and the customer’s ability to obtain the intended benefit under the MSA.
Performance obligations related to managed solutions contracts are satisfied over time, as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the services as they are performed, and each period of service is substantially the same with the same pattern of transfer over the life of the contract. Revenue is recognized based on amounts invoiced to the customer using the right-to-invoice practical expedient under ASC 606, as the amounts invoiced correspond directly to the value transferred to the customer.
Pricing for the Company’s managed solutions services is established in the customer contract and is set as a percentage of the customer’s revenue for a month. Quarterly, a working capital true-up adjustment may be processed if costs incurred by the customer exceed the percentage of the customer’s revenue. If a working capital true-up adjustment is determined necessary, it is recorded as a reduction of selling, general and administrative expenses as it represents the customer’s reimbursement of costs incurred by the Company.
Revenue recognition – HKA
The Company recognizes revenue from HKA’s contracts with customers in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. HKA primarily enters into fixed-price contracts with defense contractors to provide engineering and technical-data services, including logistics product data, engineering data for provisioning, technical manuals, training documentation and instructional media.
At contract inception, the Company identifies the performance obligations within each contract and allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Distinct contract line items or contract data requirement list (“CDRL”) deliverables are generally accounted for as separate performance obligations. Multiple submission or acceptance stages related to a single deliverable are generally considered milestones within a single performance obligation rather than separate performance obligations.
Revenue from customer-specific engineering and technical-data deliverables is recognized over time when the deliverables have no alternative use to the Company and the applicable contractual terms provide the Company with an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date, including a reasonable profit margin. The contractual right to payment is generally supported by termination for convenience clauses that allow the customer to unilaterally terminate the contract for convenience, pay the Company for costs incurred plus a reasonable profit, and take control of any work in process. For such performance obligations, revenue is recognized using a cost-to-cost input method based on costs incurred relative to total estimated costs required to satisfy the performance obligation. Estimates of total costs to complete are reviewed and updated as circumstances change.
For performance obligations that do not meet the criteria for recognition over time, revenue is recognized at a point in time when control of the applicable deliverable transfers to the customer, generally upon customer acceptance.
Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined by average cost method) or net realizable value. The valuation of inventories requires the Company to estimate obsolete or excess inventory as well as inventory that is not of saleable quality. The Company employs its methodology to determine the net realizable value of its inventory. While a portion of the calculation to record inventory at its net realizable value is based on the age of the inventory and lower of cost or net realizable value calculations, a key factor in estimating obsolete or excess inventory requires the Company to estimate the future demand for its products. If actual demand is less than the Company’s estimates, impairment charges, which are recorded to cost of sales, may need to be recorded in future periods. Inventory in excess of saleable amounts is not valued, and the remaining inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value.
14
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, an allowance for obsolete or slow-moving inventory was not required. The Company did not recognize a provision for inventory shrinkage for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
Inventories consist of finished goods. The Company had approximately $
Non-controlling Interest: The portion of equity not owned by the Company in entities controlled and consolidated by the Company are presented as non-controlling interest and classified as a component of condensed consolidated stockholders’ equity, separate from total stockholders’ equity on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The amount recorded is based on the non-controlling interest holders’ initial investment, adjusted to reflect the non-controlling interest holder’s share of earnings or losses from the Company controlled entity, and any distributions received or additional contributions made by the non-controlling interest holder. Changes to the Company’s ownership that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. The earnings or losses from the entity attributable to non-controlling interests are reflected in net income attributable to non-controlling interests on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. All significant intercompany accounts, transactions, and profits and losses were eliminated in consolidation. Any change in ownership of a subsidiary while the controlling financial interest is retained is accounted for as an equity transaction between the controlling and noncontrolling interests.
Equity method investment: The Company accounts for investments in entities over which it has the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control or joint control, using the equity method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 323, Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures. Significant influence is generally presumed to exist when the Company holds 20% or more of the voting interest of an investee (or, for investments in limited liability companies and similar entities that maintain specific ownership accounts, when the Company holds more than a minor interest), although the determination requires judgment and consideration of all relevant facts and circumstances, including representation on the investee’s board of directors, participation in policy-making processes, material intra-entity transactions, interchange of managerial personnel, and technological dependency.
Under the equity method, the investment is initially recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted to recognize the Company’s proportionate share of the investee’s net income or loss, other comprehensive income or loss, any distributions received including consideration of basis differences resulting from the difference between the initial carrying amount of the investment and the underlying equity in net assets. The Company’s share of the investee’s earnings or losses is recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss within “Equity in earnings of equity method investee.” Distributions received reduce the carrying amount of the investment. The Company eliminates its proportionate share of intra-entity profits and losses on transactions with equity method investees to the extent of its ownership interest, with the elimination recorded against equity in earnings (loss) and the carrying amount of the investment.
Any difference between the cost of the investment and the Company’s proportionate share of the underlying equity in the net assets of the investee at the acquisition date (basis difference) is primarily attributed to identified intangible assets and goodwill. Basis difference related to the intangible assets is amortized over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Equity method goodwill is not amortized.
The Company evaluates its equity method investments for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investment may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when the decline in fair value below the carrying amount is determined to be other than temporary.
See Note 5 — “Equity Method Investments” for further information regarding the Company’s equity method investment.
Investments in Equity Securities: Investments in equity securities with readily determinable fair values are accounted in accordance with ASC 321, Investment in Equity Securities. These investments are recorded at cost and subsequently measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Business combination and asset acquisition: The Company evaluates acquisitions of assets and other similar transactions to assess whether or not the transaction should be accounted for as a business combination or asset acquisition by first applying a screen to determine if substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. If the screen is met, the transaction is accounted for as an asset acquisition. If the screen is not met, further determination is required as to whether or not the Company has acquired inputs and processes that have the ability to create outputs, which would meet the requirements of a business. If determined to be a business combination, the Company accounts for the transaction under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805 Business Combinations (“ASC 805”), which requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize the fair value of all assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and establishes the acquisition date as the fair value measurement point. Accordingly, the Company recognizes assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, including contingent assets and liabilities, and non-controlling interest in the acquiree based on the fair value estimates as of the date of acquisition. The Company recognizes and measures goodwill as of the acquisition date, as the excess of the fair value of the consideration paid over the fair value of the identified net assets acquired.
The consideration for the Company’s business acquisitions may include future payments that are contingent upon the occurrence of a particular event or events. The obligations for such contingent consideration payments are recorded at fair value on the acquisition date. The contingent consideration obligations are then evaluated each reporting period. Changes in the fair value of contingent consideration, other than changes due to payments, are recognized as a gain or loss and recorded within change in the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
If determined to be an asset acquisition, the Company accounts for the transaction under ASC 805-50, which requires the acquiring entity in an asset acquisition to recognize assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the cost to the acquiring entity on a relative fair value basis, which includes transaction costs in addition to consideration given. No gain or loss is recognized as of the date of acquisition unless the fair value of non-cash assets given as consideration differs from the assets’ carrying amounts on the acquiring entity’s books. Consideration transferred that is non-cash will be measured based on either the cost (which shall be measured based on the fair value of the consideration given) or the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, whichever is more reliably measurable. Goodwill is not recognized in an asset acquisition and any excess consideration transferred over the fair value of the net assets acquired is allocated to the identifiable assets based on relative fair values.
Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business combinations and are expensed as incurred.
Acquisitions of non - controlling equity interests that do not result in control of the investee are outside the scope of ASC 805 and are accounted for under the Company’s policy for equity method investments described above.
Impairment of Goodwill: Goodwill represents an excess of the cost over the fair market value of net assets acquired in business combinations. In accordance with ASC Topic Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level. For purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to the applicable reporting units based on the Company’s reporting structure. Our reporting units are the same as our reportable segments and consistent with the reporting units tested for impairment in prior years.
The Company may first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting
16
unit is less than its carrying amount, or elects to bypass the qualitative assessment, the Company performs a quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, limited to the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit.
Impairment of long-lived assets and finite- lived Intangible asset: In accordance with ASC 360, Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (“ASC 360”), the Company reviews the carrying values of long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable.
In performing this assessment, the Company evaluates various indicators of impairment, including (i) significant adverse changes in general economic or market conditions, (ii) adverse changes in the industry or competitive environment, (iii) increases in market-based discount rates, (iv) declines in the Company’s market capitalization relative to its net assets, (v) actual or projected operating results that are below prior expectations, and (vi) entity-specific factors such as changes in business strategy or the manner in which the assets are utilized. Based on the existence of one or more indicators of impairment, the Company measures any impairment of long-lived assets using the projected discounted cash flow method at the asset group level. The estimation of future cash flows requires significant management judgment based on the Company’s historical results and anticipated results and is subject to many factors. The discount rate that is commensurate with the risk inherent in the Company’s business model is determined by its management. An impairment loss would be recorded if the Company determined that the carrying value of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. The impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying values of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets.
As of June 30, 2026, the Company assessed its long-lived assets for impairment and recognized an impairment loss on intangible assets for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 amounting to approximately $322,000.
Held for Sale and Discontinued operations - The Company classifies assets and liabilities (the “disposal group”) as held for sale in the period when all of the relevant criteria to be classified as held for sale are met. These criteria include management’s commitment to sell the disposal group in its present condition and the sale being deemed probable of being completed within one year. Assets held for sale are reported at the lower of their carrying value or fair value less cost to sell. Fair value is determined based on management’s assessment of indicative bids, a market multiples model in which a market multiple is applied to forecasted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”), discounted cash flows, appraised values, or management’s estimates, depending on the specific situation. Any loss resulting from the measurement is recognized in the period when the held for sale criteria are met. If the disposal group meets the definition of a business, the goodwill within the reporting unit is allocated to the disposal group based on its relative fair value. The Company assesses the fair value of a disposal group, less any disposal cost, each reporting period it remains classified as held for sale and reports any subsequent changes as an adjustment to the carrying value of the disposal group, as long as the new carrying value does not exceed the initial carrying value of the disposal group. Assets held for sale are not amortized or depreciated.
The Company accounts for discontinued operations in accordance with ASC Topic 205-20, Presentation of Financial Statements—Discontinued Operations. A component of the Company’s business is reported as a discontinued operation when its disposal represents a strategic shift that has, or will have, a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results. A component comprises operations and cash flows that can be clearly distinguished, both operationally and for financial reporting purposes, from the rest of the Company. When a component qualifies for discontinued operations presentation, the results of operations of the discontinued component, including any gain or loss recognized upon disposal, are reported separately from continuing operations in the consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented. Prior-period financial information is retrospectively reclassified to conform to the current-period presentation, unless otherwise required by U.S. GAAP.
Net income (loss) per share - Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding the effects of any potential dilutive securities. Diluted income (loss) per share is computed similar to basic income (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common share equivalents had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Income (loss) per share excludes all potential dilutive shares of common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
17
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, potentially dilutive common shares consist of the common shares issuable upon the exercise of common stock options and warrants (using the treasury stock method) and the conversion of convertible notes payable. Conversion features of notes payable may have a variable conversion feature, amending the number of conversion shares based on the market price of the stock. In a period in which the Company has a net loss, all potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of diluted shares outstanding as they would have had an anti-dilutive impact. This treatment also applies when the Company reports gain from discontinued operations, as the determination of whether potentially dilutive securities are dilutive is based on income or loss from continuing operations.
Diluted net income (loss) per share includes the potential dilutive effect of common stock equivalents as if such securities were converted or exercised during the period, when the effect is dilutive. Given the Company is in a net loss position for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, there is no difference between basic and diluted net income (loss) per share.
The following table summarizes the potentially dilutive securities excluded from the computation of diluted shares outstanding because the effect of including these potential shares was anti-dilutive:
Options | | |
Warrants | | |
Convertible notes payable that convert into common stock | | |
Total | |
Convertible notes payable - The Company has elected the fair value option under ASC 825-10 to measure its convertible notes payable at fair value at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. As a result of this election, the Company is not required to separately evaluate or bifurcate embedded conversion features under ASC 470, as the entire hybrid instrument is carried at fair value. Debt issuance costs associated with convertible notes for which the fair value option has been elected are expensed as incurred rather than deferred and amortized.
The change in fair value (inclusive of any Day 1 gains or losses) of the convertible debt was recorded as a component of other income (expense) in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. For the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the change in fair value amounted to approximately $
When convertible notes are converted into equity in accordance with their original contractual terms, the Company reclassifies the carrying amount of the liability to equity, and no gain or loss on extinguishment is recognized.
Reverse Stock Split - At a special meeting of stockholders held on January 15, 2026, the stockholders of the Company approved a reverse stock split of the Company’s Common Stock at a ratio between -for-5 and -for-50, with the final ratio to be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) in its discretion.
The Board subsequently approved a -for-32 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) and authorized the Company to effect the Reverse Stock Split for state law purposes at 4:01 p.m. Eastern Time on April 17, 2026 (the “Effective Time”), such that the Company’s common stock began trading at market open on April 20, 2026 on a post-Reverse Stock Split-adjusted basis.
Mechanics of the Reverse Stock Split
As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every 32 shares of the Company’s Common Stock issued and outstanding were automatically combined and converted into (1) share of Common Stock, with any resulting fractional shares rounded up to the nearest whole share. The Reverse Stock Split did not change the par value of the common stock or the number of authorized shares.
Fractional shares: No fractional shares were issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Any stockholder who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fractional share received one whole share of Common Stock, with fractional shares rounded up to the nearest whole share.
Par value: The par value of the Company’s Common Stock is $
18
Impact on Shares Outstanding
The following table sets forth the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately before and immediately after the Effective Time of the Reverse Stock Split:
Shares Outstanding | | Pre-Split | | Post-Split |
Common Stock - issued and outstanding |
| |
| |
All shares of the Company’s Common Stock, per-share data and related information included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted as though the Reverse Stock Split had been effected prior to all periods presented.
Accounting Treatment and Retroactive Restatement
The Reverse Stock Split became effective on April 17, 2026. In accordance with ASC 260-10-55-12, all share and per-share data contained in these financial statements, including all comparative prior period information, have been retroactively restated to reflect the -for-32 Reverse Stock Split as though it had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented. Accordingly, proportionate adjustments have been made to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon, and the exercise or conversion prices applicable to, the Company’s outstanding stock options, warrants, and convertible notes, consistent with the anti-dilution provisions of the applicable instruments. The aggregate par value of the Common Stock was reduced proportionally with a corresponding reclassification from Common Stock to additional paid-in capital in stockholders’ equity.
Significant Accounting Policies — During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 there were no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies from its disclosures in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on April 16, 2026.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements, not yet adopted
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. Management periodically reviews newly issued accounting standards to determine their potential impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative (“ASU 2023-06”) incorporates several disclosure and presentation requirements currently residing in SEC Regulation S-X and S-K into the ASC. The amendments are applied prospectively and are effective when the SEC removes the related requirements from Regulation S-X and S-K. Any amendments the SEC does not remove by June 30, 2027 will not be effective. Early adoption is prohibited. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its disclosures.
ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures. In November 2024, the FASB issued this ASU that requires more detailed disclosure about certain costs and expenses presented in the income statement, including inventory purchases, employee compensation, selling expense and depreciation expense. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The guidance does not affect recognition or measurement in our consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2024-04 Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options - Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments. In November 2024, the FASB issued this ASU which clarifies the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as induced conversions or extinguishments. The amendments in this update are effective for all entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted for all entities that have adopted the amendments in Update 2020-06. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In May 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2025-03, Business Combinations (Topic 805) and Consolidation (Topic 810): Determining the Accounting Acquirer in the Acquisition of a Variable Interest Entity (“ASU 2025-03”). ASU 2025-03 changes how companies determine the accounting acquirer in certain business combinations involving variable interest entities. The new guidance requires considering the factors used for other acquisition transactions to assess which party is the accounting acquirer. ASU 2025-03 is effective for the Company’s annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this new accounting guidance on its financial statements and related disclosures.
19
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. The new guidance is expected to provide decision-useful information to investors and other financial statement users while reducing the time and effort necessary to analyze and estimate credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets. The amendments in this update introduce a practical expedient when applying the guidance related to the estimation of expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets resulting from transactions arising from contracts with customers. The guidance is effective for the Company on a prospective basis, beginning January 1, 2026 for the interim and annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its financial statements and related disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06- Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software (ASU 2025-06), which is intended to simplify the capitalization guidance for internal-use software by removing references to project stages and clarifying when the capitalizing of eligible costs is required. ASU 2025-06 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its disclosures.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements, which clarifies the guidance in Topic 270 to improve the consistency of interim financial reporting. The ASU provides a comprehensive list of required interim disclosures and introduces a disclosure principle requiring entities to disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have had a material impact on the entity. ASU 2025-11 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2025-11.
In May 2026, the FASB issued ASU 2026-02, which establishes new guidance for the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of environmental credits and environmental credit obligations. The standard provides a comprehensive accounting model for entities that acquire, generate, or are required to settle obligations using environmental credits. For public business entities, the amendments are effective for annual reporting periods, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
The Company does not believe any other new accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB that have not become effective will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Management’s Plans
Management has developed the following plans intended to eliminate going concern issues:
| ● | Underwritten public offering. Management is pursuing an underwritten public offering of the Company’s common stock, pursuant to its registration statement, which is expected to provide gross proceeds of approximately $ |
| ● | Continuing operations. Following the divestitures of unprofitable and non-strategic businesses, the Company’s continuing operations are focused on its AI-enabled logistics and AI infrastructure businesses. Management believes that this streamlined business portfolio is expected to support the Company’s overall growth strategy and contribute to improved operating margins and financial performance in the future periods. |

| ● | Divestiture of unprofitable and non-strategic services business. The Company is planning and exploring strategic alternatives for the divestiture of its remaining Owned Service Network (“OSN”) segments, which have generated significant operating losses in recent quarters. If approved by the Board and successfully completed, management believes that a potential divestiture or restructuring of these operations would further streamline the Company’s business portfolio, reduce operating losses, and allow management to focus resources on its core, higher-growth businesses. |

Management’s Conclusion
As of the date on which these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were available to be issued, the Company believes that the cash on hand, and additional investments available through the issuance of new Common Stock and additional borrowings, will be inadequate to satisfy the Company’s working capital requirements for at least the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these condensed financial statements. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon management’s plan to raise additional capital through the issuance of equity or receive additional borrowings to fund the Company’s operations over the next year.
If management’s plans described above are successfully executed, the Company believes that the additional liquidity obtained through such transactions could mitigate the conditions and events that currently raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. However, the successful execution of these plans is not entirely within management’s control and remains subject to significant uncertainties. The Company’s ability to raise additional capital through equity financings and obtain additional borrowings remains dependent upon, among other factors, negotiations with potential investors and lenders, completion of due diligence procedures, execution of definitive agreements, satisfaction of customary closing conditions, prevailing market conditions, and other factors outside of the Company’s control. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in completing such transactions or obtaining the necessary funding on acceptable terms, or at all.
Accordingly, management has concluded that these plans do not, considered in the aggregate, meet the threshold under ASC 205-40 for alleviating substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern has not been alleviated as of the issuance date. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 4: DISPOSALS AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
Disposals
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company completed the divestitures described below as part of the strategic rationalization of its Owned Service Network segment. Of these, only the Global Impx Inc. (“GIX”) divestiture represents a strategic shift that has, or will have, a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, and it accordingly qualifies for presentation as a discontinued operation. The other disposals does not meet that threshold and does not qualify as a discontinued operation and their results through the disposal date remain within continuing operations.
Air Temp Service Co.
On January 1, 2026, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary Air Temp Service Co., Inc. (“ATSCI”) transferred all of its HVAC service operations conducted under the “Air Temp Service Co.” trade name to A.T.S. Heating & Cooling LLC (“ATS LLC”), a newly formed New Jersey limited liability company, pursuant to a Non-Cash Business Asset Transfer Agreement. The transferred assets included vehicles, equipment, marketing materials, building leases used in operations, and the “Air Temp Service Co.” trade name and associated goodwill, together with all rights and responsibilities necessary to operate the previously-conducted HVAC business. The Company received

Discontinued Operations
Divestiture of India Operations - Blue Cloud Share Swap Transaction
To streamline its international operating structure and focus on its core U.S. energy technology and AI infrastructure businesses the Company, On June 17, 2026, completed the divestiture of its India operations through the transfer of its
Upon completion of the transaction, the Company ceased to control GIX, deconsolidated the subsidiary and divested Distributed Energy & Renewables (“DER”) and Transportation segment from its operations. The disposal represented a strategic shift that had a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results and therefore qualifies for discontinued operations presentation. Accordingly, the results of GIX’s operations, including the gain on disposal, are presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented, and prior-period amounts have been retrospectively reclassified to conform to the current-period presentation. In addition, all assets and liabilities have been classified as assets and liabilities from discontinued operations on the condensed consolidated Balance Sheets for all periods presented.

Fair Value of Level 3 Financial Instruments
Certain financial instruments, including SEPA convertible notes, instruments related to 3(a)10 Settlement Agreement and Derivative Liabilities contain embedded features that require bifurcation and measurement at fair value under ASC 815. These instruments are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy due to the use of significant unobservable inputs.
In prior periods, the Company utilized a Monte Carlo simulation model to estimate fair value where valuation depended on future stock price variability and path-dependent assumptions. As of June 30, 2026, for certain convertible notes, the reset provisions were based on the Company’s closing stock price at year-end and were not dependent on future contingent events, and accordingly fair value was determined using the intrinsic value of the reset feature at the measurement date. For other convertible notes where the settlement outcome remained uncertain, the Company applied a probability-weighted pay-off approach, assigning probabilities to each potential settlement scenario (e.g., cash repayment, conversion, or default) to estimate the fair value of the embedded derivative at the reporting date.

NOTE 11: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal and regulatory proceedings
The Company is subject to various routine litigation, legal proceedings, and regulatory matters, that arise in the ordinary course of its business. The Company reviews its lawsuits, regulatory matters, and other legal proceedings on an ongoing basis and provides disclosure and records loss contingencies in accordance with the loss contingencies accounting guidance. In accordance with such guidance, the Company establishes accruals for such matters when potential losses become probable and can be reasonably estimated. If the Company determines that a loss is reasonably possible and the loss or range of loss can be estimated, the Company discloses the possible loss in these consolidated financial statements.
The Company accrues for potential liability arising from legal proceedings and regulatory matters when it is probable that such liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. This determination is based upon currently available information for those proceedings in which the Company is involved, taking into account its best estimate of such losses for those cases for which such estimates can be made. The Company’s estimates involve significant judgment, given the varying stages of proceedings (including issues regarding class certification and the scope of many of the claims), and the related uncertainty of the potential outcomes of these proceedings.
In making determinations of the likely outcome of pending litigation, the Company considers many factors, including, but not limited to, the nature of the claims, the Company’s experience with similar types of claims, the jurisdiction in which the matter is filed, input from outside legal counsel, the likelihood of resolving the matter through alternative mechanisms, the matter’s current status and the damages sought or demands made. Accordingly, the Company’s estimate will change from time to time, and actual losses could be more or less than the current estimate.

Florida Solar acquisition litigation (Zrallack and RJZ Holdings LLC v. Aurai LLC, ConnectM Florida RE LLC, and Florida Solar Products, Inc.; Florida 19th Judicial Circuit—St. Lucie County)
On February 26, 2024, Robert J. Zrallack and RJZ Holdings LLC (the “Plaintiffs”) filed suit against Aurai LLC (“Aurai”), ConnectM Florida RE LLC (“ConnectM Florida RE”), and Florida Solar Products, Inc. (“Florida Solar”) (collectively, the “Subsidiaries”), each wholly owned subsidiaries of ConnectM Technology Solutions, Inc. (“ConnectM” or the “Company”), in connection with the Company’s 2022 acquisition of Florida Solar and related real estate transactions.
The matter was compelled to arbitration pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement. Following evidentiary hearings conducted in June and July 2025, the arbitrator issued an Interim Arbitration Award on September 11, 2025. Subsequent orders were entered addressing modification and attorneys’ fees and costs. On December 25, 2025, the arbitrator issued a Final Award incorporating prior rulings.
The Final Award includes:
| ● | Approximately $ |
| ● | Approximately $ |
| ● | Attorneys’ fees and costs totaling approximately $ |
| ● | Arbitrators’ fees and costs totaling approximately $ |
| ● | Certain equitable and payment-related relief, including obligations relating to specified debt instruments and credit card balances. |
In aggregate, Plaintiffs’ motion to confirm seeks entry of judgment totaling approximately $
On December 30, 2025, Plaintiffs filed a motion to confirm the arbitration award in the Circuit Court for the 19th Judicial Circuit (St. Lucie County, Florida), later amended on January 7, 2026. On January 7, 2026, Plaintiffs also served post-award discovery requests styled as “discovery in aid of execution.” The Subsidiaries filed a motion to strike such discovery and for a protective order on the basis that no final judgment has been entered and discovery in aid of execution is premature.
As of the date of this filing:
| ● | The arbitration award has not yet been confirmed by the court; |
| ● | No final enforceable judgment has been entered; |
| ● | Post-award motion practice remains pending; and |
| ● | The Subsidiaries are pursuing available legal remedies, including seeking vacatur and opposing confirmation. |
Following a hearing held on April 30, 2026, the court denied the Company’s motion to vacate and granted Plaintiffs’ motion to confirm the arbitration award. Plaintiffs’ counsel subsequently circulated a proposed final judgment which, if entered substantially in its current form, would include aggregate damages, attorneys’ fees, costs, foreclosure-related relief, statutory interest, and other payment obligations totaling in excess of $

NOTE 13: INCOME TAXES
We determine the interim tax benefit (provision) by applying an estimate of the annual effective tax rate to the year-to-date pretax book income (loss) and adjusting for discrete items during the reporting period, if any. Tax jurisdictions with losses for which tax benefits cannot be realized, as well as significant unusual or infrequently occurring items that are separately reported, are excluded from the annual effective tax rate.

Indian income tax. The Company’s technical position is that the transaction is not within the indirect-transfer regime of Section 9(1)(i) Explanation 5 of the Indian Income-tax Act, on the basis that Indian assets constitute less than 50% of GIX’s fair market value on the specified date, in which case no Indian tax would arise. If the regime were to apply, the Company’s preliminary estimate of Indian capital-gains exposure attributable to its $

Basis for re-measurement. The reserve is expected to be re-measured in a subsequent period as the following are completed: an independent Rule 11UB fair-market-value certificate and intellectual-property valuations by a SEBI-registered Category I Merchant Banker; a consolidated Ind AS balance sheet of GIX; a formal opinion from the Company’s Indian tax advisor; contemporaneous commercial-substance documentation; and a Section 382 ownership-change study. The Company is actively pursuing each of these items and currently expects the substantive workstreams to be completed during the third quarter of 2026. The final combined U.S. and Indian tax impact could differ materially from the preliminary estimates, and may be materially lower than the amount currently recorded.

NOTE 15: ACQUISITION
Harry Kahn Associates, Inc. Acquisition
On April 3, 2026, the Company acquired
HKA is a leading provider of logistics support analysis databases, technical manuals, and training materials for the U.S. Department of Defense, the U.S. Coast Guard, and major defense OEMs including Boeing, Northrop Grumman, and Lockheed Martin. HKA has maintained an uninterrupted contracting relationship with the Naval Air Systems Command since 1976, holds ISO 9001:2015 certification for technical data development, and has supported programs across all branches of the U.S. military.
The acquisition expands the Company’s technology platform into the defense and government infrastructure market, positioning Keen Labs’ AI and data analytics capabilities to address predictive maintenance, lifecycle sustainment, and logistics intelligence applications across mission-critical military systems. Management believes that HKA’s established government relationships and structured operational datasets, together with the Company’s technology platform, may provide opportunities for growth in the global defense sustainment market.

The purchase price allocation is preliminary as the Company is finalizing the valuation of certain identifiable intangible assets and working capital balances. The Company expects to complete the valuation during the measurement period, which will not exceed one year from the acquisition date.
The preliminary fair values and estimated useful lives of the identifiable intangible assets acquired are as follows:
| | Estimated Useful | |||
Identifiable Intangible Assets | Fair Value |
| Life (Years) | ||
Technology | $ | |
| ||
Customer relationships |
| |
| ||
Trade names |
| |
| ||
Total fair value of intangible assets | $ | |
| | |
The fair values of the identifiable intangible assets acquired were estimated using income-based valuation approaches. The fair value of the acquired technology was estimated using the multi-period excess earnings method, which reflects the present value of the after-tax cash flows attributable to the technology after deducting contributory asset charges. The fair value of customer relationships was estimated using the with-and-without method, which reflects the present value of the incremental cash flows attributable to the existing customer relationships. The fair value of the trade name was estimated using the relief-from-royalty method, which reflects the present value of the after-tax royalty savings attributable to ownership of the trade name. The acquisition has been accounted for using the acquisition method in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations.
Further, in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting, the acquisition did not result in the identification of a new reportable segment considering it had insignificant operations since acquisition through June 30, 2026, therefore, the Company has concluded that HKA is included within “Others” segment.
HKA has contributed approximately $

NOTE 16: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company has evaluated subsequent events from June 30, 2026 through the date these interim financial statements were issued, in accordance with ASC 855, Subsequent Events. No events were identified that require adjustment to the accompanying financial statements. All subsequent events identified are non-recognized subsequent events.

The Acquisition Agreement also provides for contingent consideration based on BRI’s future financial performance through 2030 and includes contractual rights that may require the Company to purchase the BRI’s remaining ownership interest over specified future periods, subject to the terms of the agreement.
The Company expects to account for the acquisition as a business combination under ASC 805, Business Combinations. The initial accounting for the business combination is incomplete as of the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were available to be issued because the Company has not yet completed the valuation of the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, the non-controlling interest, and the resulting goodwill. Accordingly, the Company is unable to present the provisional amounts of consideration transferred and of the identifiable assets and liabilities recognized at the acquisition date. The amounts recognized are provisional and may be adjusted during the measurement period, which will not exceed one year from the acquisition date, as the Company obtains the information necessary to identify and measure the acquisition-date fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Management is currently evaluating the accounting implications of this subsequent event, including the appropriate recognition, measurement, classification and disclosure, as applicable, and the accounting assessment has not yet been concluded.
Purchase Order Financing Advance

Management is currently evaluating the accounting implications of this subsequent event, including the appropriate recognition, measurement, classification and disclosure, as applicable, and the accounting assessment has not yet been concluded.

Executive Overview
ConnectM (the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation headquartered in Marlborough, Massachusetts. On July 12, 2024 (the “Merger Closing Date” or the “Merger Closing”), Monterey Capital Acquisition Corporation (“MCAC”) consummated an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with ConnectM Technology Solutions, Inc. (“Legacy ConnectM”) in which MCAC acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock from Legacy ConnectM shareholders (the “Business Combination”) in exchange for 14,500,000 shares of MCAC’s Common Stock. On the Merger Closing Date, MCAC changed its name to ConnectM Technology Solutions, Inc. (“ConnectM”) and it became a publicly listed company. ConnectM is a U.S.-based technology company that develops, sells, and operates hardware and software to power the physical layer of the AI economy. The Company’s strategy is organized around two high-growth, U.S.-centered platforms: DeliveryCircle, asset-light logistics-technology subsidiary, and Keen Labs, the Company’s wholly owned AI and technology subsidiary. Over the past year, the Company has simplified its portfolio to concentrate on these two platforms, divesting or winding down its legacy Owned Service Network, Managed Solutions, and India-based operations, as described further below.
DeliveryCircle’s Decios platform uses AI to optimize business-to-business last-mile delivery, matching shipments to a network of independent, contracted drivers in real time to enable same-day movement of freight from warehouses and distribution centers to retail points of sale. Keen Labs designs, sources, and distributes AI-enabled distributed-energy and electrification hardware, including smart heat pumps and smart controls, the Hi-C™ and Hi-E™ families of battery energy storage systems, and virtual power plant software, alongside solar, battery storage, and EV charging offerings; including business-to-business sales to multi-billion dollar national distribution partners. Both platforms are supported by a common data and intelligence layer built and continuously enhanced by Keen Labs, which accesses more than 30 gigabytes of operating and performance data per day across the Company’s portfolio and partner network, and applies AI and machine-learning models intended to deliver customer outcomes such as predictive maintenance, energy optimization, and route efficiency.
The Company’s OSN segment provides energy solutions directly to residential, commercial and enterprise customers. OSN’s operations primarily include the installation, maintenance and servicing of electrified heating and cooling systems and distributed energy solutions, including solar and battery systems. The installed equipment is supported by the Company’s AI-driven energy intelligence platform, which enables monitoring of equipment performance and efficiency and facilitates the identification of maintenance requirements.
The Company also offers physical products as part of its solutions offerings, including AI-enabled heat pump systems for use in the decarbonization of homes and businesses, and solar panels, inverters, battery storage systems, and related balance-of-system components procured and distributed through its Keen Labs Operations, Inc. subsidiary to installation partners including Sun Solar, LLC.
The Company previously provided managed solutions offerings, including human resources management, procurement services, omnichannel marketing and lead generation services, and access to working capital solutions designed to improve operating efficiency and enhance profitability for service providers. In April 2026, the Company terminated its last remaining managed service agreement and is exploring options with respect to its Managed Solutions offerings. No formal plans are currently in place.
The Company’s platform and associated software continuously collect and analyze operational data, generating actionable insights that customers use for monitoring, optimization and decision-making, and enabling applications such as predictive maintenance and virtual power plant integration.
50
The Company is actively rationalizing its segment portfolio to focus on its highest-quality, U.S. based verticals that contribute positively to operating results. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company continued to streamline certain HVAC, solar, and other home service operations within the Owned Service Network segment as the Company shifted its decarbonization strategy toward product-led and technology-enabled offerings. The Keen Labs segment which conducts the Company’s technology platform operations and U.S. wholesale procurement and distribution of solar, energy storage, and related balance-of-system components through Keen Labs Operations, Inc., which contributed approximately $3,855,000 and $5,705,000 of product sales revenue during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively under VPP kit supply arrangements with installation partners. The remaining Owned Service Network operations are subject to ongoing strategic review. As discussed above, the Company terminated its last remaining Managed Solutions service agreement in April 2026.
On April 3, 2026, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of HKA, a defense-focused technical data development company headquartered in Hagerstown, Maryland, acquiring 100% of HKA’s issued and outstanding capital stock in exchange for 12,500 shares of the Company’s common stock. HKA has maintained an uninterrupted contracting relationship with the U.S. Naval Air Systems Command since 1976 and provides logistics support analysis databases, technical manuals, and training materials to the U.S. Department of Defense, the U.S. Coast Guard, and major defense original equipment manufacturers, including Boeing, Northrop Grumman, and Lockheed Martin. The acquisition expands the Company’s technology platform into the defense and government infrastructure market and is expected to enable the application of Keen Labs’ AI and data analytics capabilities to predictive maintenance, lifecycle sustainment, and logistics intelligence use cases. The Company accounted for the acquisition as a business combination under ASC 805 effective April 3, 2026, the closing date, and has allocated HKA to its Other segment for segment reporting purposes, as HKA does not meet the quantitative thresholds to qualify as a separately reportable segment under ASC 280.
On June 17, 2026, the Company completed the previously announced Share Swap Agreement with Blue Cloud Softech Solutions Limited (“Blue Cloud”) (BSE: 539607), transferring 94.12% of the issued and outstanding equity of Global Impx Inc. (“GIX”), which held the Company’s India-based operations, to Blue Cloud in exchange for 160,000,000 newly issued equity shares of Blue Cloud, representing approximately 17.33% of Blue Cloud’s post-issue share capital. Upon closing, the Company deconsolidated GIX and its subsidiaries and recorded its Blue Cloud shares as an equity security at fair value under ASC 321, resulting in a non-cash gain of approximately $14,154,000, net of tax. As a result of the transaction, the Distributed Energy & Renewables and Transportation segments were substantially eliminated during the quarter.
The Company earns revenue across five operating segments:
| ● | Owned Service Network – Electrification and HVAC service providers delivering energy-efficient installations and long-term performance monitoring to end-users; certain operations subject to ongoing strategic review; |
| ● | Managed Solutions – provides third party residential and light commercial service providers with access to the Technology Platform as well as a selection of servicing offerings that the managed solutions customer can select from, including human resources management, procurement services, omnichannel marketing and lead generation as well as access to short-term working capital loans. The Company terminated its last remaining managed service agreement in April 2026, and this segment is expected to be eliminated as a reportable segment beginning in the third quarter of 2026. As the Company continues to focus on its strategy toward product-led and technology-enabled offerings and as part of this strategy, the Company terminated its managed service solution agreement. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had not authorized and approved a plan to sell and continued to evaluate multiple strategic alternatives for this segment. Accordingly, the termination of services did not meet the criteria for classification as held for sale under ASC 205-20-45-1E as management had not committed to a plan of sale and a sale was not considered probable within one year, consider this the segment is presented as held-and-used in these condensed consolidated financial statements. |
| ● | Keen Labs – AI, control, and energy intelligence platforms that underpin the Company’s modern energy economy solutions, conducted through Keen Labs Operations, Inc. and including industrial IoT hardware, the Hi-C™ line of hybrid energy storage systems, the Hi-E™ line of lithium iron phosphate long-duration and VPP-enabling storage systems, smart heat pumps, connected vehicle technologies, and the wholesale procurement and distribution of solar energy equipment, battery storage systems, and related balance-of-system components to U.S. installation partners including Sun Solar, LLC; |
| ● | Logistics – DeliveryCircle, LLC, a U.S.-based subsidiary offering AI-enabled dispatch, route optimization, and sortation services within the last-mile delivery sector; and |
51
| ● | Other Segment – Comprises corporate-level operations and the Company’s HKA subsidiary, this segment generated de minimis revenue during the periods presented, consisting of less than $200,000 from HKA. |
Recent Developments
On January 5, 2026, the Company entered into an acquisition agreement to acquire a 40% equity interest in Sun Solar LLC (“Sun Solar”), a U.S.-based residential and small-commercial solar developer and installer, in exchange for 468,750 shares of the Company’s common stock. The investment is accounted for under the equity method of accounting in accordance with ASC 323, as the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over Sun Solar’s operating and financial policies but does not hold a controlling financial interest. Concurrently, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Keen Labs Operations, Inc. (“Keen Labs”), entered into a Supply and Services Master Agreement (the “Keen Labs MSA”) with Sun Solar, effective January 6, 2026, pursuant to which Keen Labs procures and supplies solar panels, inverters, batteries, and related balance-of-system components to Sun Solar at actual invoiced product cost (including procurement and logistics fee) plus marketing and other professional services after adding a mark-up of 10%. The Keen Labs MSA is non-exclusive, terminable by either party upon 30 days’ written notice. Additional services, including marketing, supply chain consulting, and working capital support, may be provided under separate statements of work. Sun Solar is also expected to serve as a strategic installation and distribution channel for the Company’s Keen Labs segment, including solar-plus-storage systems designed to participate in virtual power plant programs. The Company intends to align its solar operations with Sun Solar under the “Sun Solar Northeast” banner and deploy additional capital to support the expansion of cutting-edge energy storage and VPP installations.
On January 1, 2026, the Company transferred all HVAC business assets and operations conducted under the Air Temp Service Co. trade name to A.T.S. Heating & Cooling LLC (“ATS LLC”), a New Jersey limited liability company, pursuant to a Non-Cash Business Asset Transfer Agreement. The transaction involved no cash consideration, and ATS LLC did not assume any pre-existing liabilities of the Company, with all obligations arising prior to the effective date retained by the Company. The Company retained a 1% non-voting, non-distributing equity interest in ATS LLC solely for participation in a shared health benefits arrangement and is entitled to 2% of net proceeds in the event ATS LLC is sold within 24 months of the effective date. The Company is also subject to a five-year non-compete covenant within ATS LLC’s service territories. Management does not expect the transaction to have a material adverse effect on ongoing operations.
In January 2026, Greentech Renewables placed a follow-on order of approximately $865,000, and in February 2026, an additional order of approximately $1,000,000, increasing cumulative purchase commitments under the arrangement to approximately $1,865,000.
On March 10, 2026, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement to acquire Harry Kahn Associates, Inc., a defense-focused technical data development company. The transaction closed on April 3, 2026 upon satisfaction of the share transfer closing condition.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company issued convertible promissory notes with aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $3,540,000.
The notes bear interest and are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the option of the holders in accordance with their respective terms. In certain instances, the Company issued shares of common stock as additional consideration in connection with these financings, and the notes may be issued at a discount to face value. The notes were issued in private placements exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) and/or Regulation D, and the proceeds were used for working capital and general corporate purposes.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company issued promissory notes and entered into term loan agreements with third-party lenders with aggregate principal amounts of $1,700,000. The promissory notes generally bear interest and mature in accordance with their contractual terms, and the term loans are repayable pursuant to scheduled principal and interest payments. During the period, the Company also amended one of its existing promissory note agreements to modify certain terms. Proceeds from these financings were used for working capital and general corporate purposes.
On March 9, 2026, the Company expanded its financing arrangements through an addendum to its existing factoring and security agreement with a lender. The arrangement provides working capital through the sale of receivables and purchase order financing, including supplier payments made directly by the lender.
52
Pursuant to the addendum, Keen Labs Operations, Inc. was added as an additional obligor and is jointly and severally liable with affiliated entities. The facility is secured by substantially all assets of the applicable entities and includes cross-collateralization and cross-default provisions.
The arrangement includes enforcement mechanisms customary for facilities of this type, including the ability to accelerate obligations and pursue collection remedies upon an event of default.
On March 16, 2026, the Company refinanced and replaced the foregoing facility by entering into a new business loan and security agreement with a lender for $650,000. After deducting an origination fee of approximately $32,800, the payoff of the remaining balance on the prior facility and other applicable fees, net proceeds of approximately $428,400 were disbursed to the Company. The new facility requires 36 weekly payments of approximately $25,639 for a total repayment amount of $923,000 and matures in November 2026. The facility is secured by substantially all assets of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, includes a personal guarantee from an officer of the Company, and contains customary covenants, including restrictions on additional indebtedness. Early repayment is permitted without penalty.
On March 20, 2026, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement to sell certain assets of its Green Energy Gains (“GEG”) business to Forge Team, Inc. The transaction is part of the Company’s continued focus on optimizing its operating structure and reallocating resources toward higher-margin and technology-enabled solutions.
The transaction includes the transfer of customer relationships, backlog, and certain operating assets, while the Company retains historical liabilities associated with pre-closing operations. The Company will provide limited transition support to facilitate continuity of operations following closing.
On March 24, 2026, the Company entered into an additional business loan and security agreement with a lender for $350,000. After deducting applicable fees, net proceeds were disbursed to the Company. The facility requires periodic payments of future receivables consistent with prior agreements with this lender and is secured by substantially all assets of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, and includes a personal guarantee from an officer of the Company.
Divestiture of India Operations — Blue Cloud Share Swap Transaction
On April 6, 2026, the Company entered into a definitive Share Swap Agreement with Blue Cloud Softech Solutions Limited (“Blue Cloud”) (BSE: 539607), a publicly listed Indian technology and infrastructure company, pursuant to which Blue Cloud acquired 94.12% of the issued and outstanding equity shares of Global Impx Inc. (“GIX”), a Delaware corporation and subsidiary of the Company, in exchange for newly issued equity shares of Blue Cloud on a preferential basis. GIX holds, directly and through its subsidiaries, the Company’s India-based operating platform, including ConnectM Technology Solutions Private Limited, Cambridge Energy Resources Private Limited, CER Microgrids Private Limited, CER Rooftop Private Limited, and Geo Impex & Logistics Private Limited. The operations held through GIX were reported within the Distributed Energy & Renewables, Transportation and Other segments. The Share Swap Agreement is governed by the laws of India and is subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts at Hyderabad, Telangana.
Under the terms of the agreement, Blue Cloud agreed to issue an aggregate of 170,000,000 equity shares of face value ₹1 each at a price of not less than the floor price of ₹21.93 per share (the “Blue Cloud Consideration Shares”) to the shareholders of GIX in exchange for 212,500,000 equity shares of GIX, reflecting a swap ratio of 100 Blue Cloud shares for every 125 GIX shares. Of the total consideration shares, ConnectM received 160,000,000 shares in exchange for the 200,000,000 GIX shares held by it, representing approximately 94.1% of GIX, and AstraBridge Inc., a minority shareholder of GIX, received 10,000,000 shares in exchange for the 12,500,000 GIX shares held by it, representing approximately 5.9% of GIX. The implied aggregate transaction value is approximately ₹372.81 crores (approximately $39.6 million based on prevailing exchange rates). The floor price was determined by an independent IBBI-registered valuer, in a report dated April 06, 2026, as the higher of the 90-trading-day and 10-trading-day volume weighted average prices of Blue Cloud’s equity shares preceding the relevant date of April 02, 2026, in accordance with the Companies Act, 2013 and the SEBI (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2018 (the “SEBI ICDR Regulations”).
53
Upon closing, ConnectM’s 160,000,000 Blue Cloud shares represented approximately 17.33% of Blue Cloud’s post-issue equity share capital of 923,081,600 shares, comprising 753,081,600 shares outstanding immediately prior to the preferential allotment and the 170,000,000 Blue Cloud Consideration Shares. The Company held no Blue Cloud shares prior to the allotment. AstraBridge Inc.’s 10,000,000 shares represent approximately 1.08% of post-issue capital, and the Blue Cloud Consideration Shares represent approximately 18.42% in the aggregate. The Blue Cloud Consideration Shares will rank pari passu with existing Blue Cloud equity shares and will be subject to a lock-in period of six months from the date of trading approval, in accordance with Regulation 167 of the SEBI ICDR Regulations. The Company had an unconditional right to receive the shares as of June 17, 2026, however the actual delivery of shares happened post June 30, 2026.
On May 4, 2026, Blue Cloud’s shareholders approved the transaction at an Extraordinary General Meeting, including the increase in authorized share capital, the preferential issuance of equity shares for consideration other than cash, and all related resolutions required under Indian corporate and securities law. The remaining conditions precedent, consisting of receipt of in-principle approval from BSE Limited for the preferential allotment and execution and delivery of all transfer instruments and board resolutions required to effect the transfer of the GIX shares, were satisfied, and the transaction closed on June 17, 2026. Because the transaction falls under the 100% automatic route, no approval of the Reserve Bank of India under the Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999 was required.
The India operations held through GIX contributed approximately $2.0 million in revenue during fiscal year 2025, or approximately 5.8% of the Company’s consolidated annual revenue of $35.8 million. The Company has reviewed its existing merchant cash advance agreements and convertible note instruments and has confirmed that no financial covenants or cross-default provisions are triggered by, or tied to, the India-based assets or operations being divested.
Upon closing, the Company’s Blue Cloud shareholding accounting evaluation is under consideration, with final classification and measurement under U.S. GAAP to be determined based on then-applicable facts and circumstances, including the availability of quoted market prices, the existence of transfer restrictions during the lock-in period, the Company’s level of influence over Blue Cloud, and other relevant considerations. The Share Swap Agreement provides that no transferor acquires any special management, control, veto, nomination or affirmative rights beyond those available to any public shareholder of Blue Cloud, and that no transferor is entitled to appoint any director or nominee to Blue Cloud’s board of directors by virtue of the agreement. The Company expects the transaction to result in a non-cash gain, subject to finalization of its technical accounting analysis.
Acquisition of Harry Kahn Associates, Inc.
On April 3, 2026, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Harry Kahn Associates, Inc. (“HKA”), a defense-focused technical data development company headquartered in Hagerstown, Maryland. The acquisition was completed pursuant to an Exchange Agreement (the “HKA Exchange Agreement”) with the stockholders of HKA, under which the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of HKA in exchange for 12,500 shares of the Company’s common stock. Accordingly, the Company accounted for the acquisition of HKA as a business combination under ASC 805 effective April 3, 2026, the closing date.
HKA is a provider of logistics support analysis databases, technical manuals, and training materials for the U.S. Department of Defense, the U.S. Coast Guard, and major defense original equipment manufacturers including Boeing, Northrop Grumman, and Lockheed Martin. HKA has maintained an uninterrupted contracting relationship with the Naval Air Systems Command since 1976 and holds ISO 9001:2015 certification for technical data development. The acquisition expands the Company’s technology platform into the defense and government infrastructure market and is expected to enable the application of Keen Labs’ AI and data analytics capabilities to predictive maintenance, lifecycle sustainment, and logistics intelligence use cases.
The initial accounting for the business combination is incomplete as of the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company is in the process of identifying and measuring the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including identifiable intangible assets such as customer relationships, technical data libraries, and government contract backlog, and expects to finalize the purchase price allocation within the measurement period prescribed by ASC 805, not to exceed one year from the acquisition date.
54
In connection with the acquisition, the Company will assume a contingent liability arising from a dispute between HKA and a former subcontractor. HKA previously performed work under a U.S. government contract that was terminated for convenience by the prime contractor in December 2023. HKA negotiated a termination settlement with the prime contractor over a period of approximately 20 months, accepted the settlement in November 2025, and executed a mutual release of claims. A former subcontractor of HKA, who performed work under purchase orders related to the terminated contract, has asserted that it is owed approximately $628,000 for work allegedly completed prior to the termination. HKA offered the subcontractor its proportionate share of the termination settlement proceeds of approximately $47,000, which the subcontractor rejected. In February 2026, the subcontractor’s attorney sent a letter to HKA rejecting the settlement amount and proposing an alternative arrangement. As of the date of this filing, no lawsuit or formal legal proceeding has been initiated by the subcontractor against HKA or the Company, and no further communications have been received from the subcontractor or its counsel.
Reverse Stock Split
On April 17, 2026, the Company filed a certificate of amendment to its Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) to effectuate a 1-for-32 reverse stock split of its common stock. The certificate of amendment became effective for state law purposes at 4:01 p.m. (Eastern Time) on that date, such that the Company’s common stock began trading at market open on April 20, 2026 on a post-reverse stock split basis. The reverse stock split was previously authorized by the Company’s stockholders at a special meeting held on January 15, 2026 (which approved a ratio range between 1-for-5 and 1-for-50), with the final ratio of 1-for-32 subsequently set by the Board of Directors. As a result of the reverse stock split, each 32 shares of common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time were combined into one share of common stock, with any resulting fractional shares rounded up to the nearest whole share. The reverse stock split did not change the par value of the common stock or the number of authorized shares.
The reverse stock split was undertaken principally to increase the per-share trading price of the Company’s common stock to a level intended to facilitate a future listing of the common stock on a national securities exchange. Initial listing standards on national securities exchanges, including the NYSE American and the Nasdaq Capital Market, generally require, among other criteria, a minimum per-share bid price of at least $4.00 (subject to certain alternative qualification standards). The Company’s pursuit of a national exchange listing remains subject to satisfaction of all applicable initial listing standards and to acceptance by the relevant exchange, and no assurance can be given that the Company will satisfy such standards or that any such listing will be achieved.
All share and per-share amounts presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to give effect to the reverse stock split for all periods presented. Outstanding options, warrants, and other equity-linked securities, and the per-share exercise and conversion prices thereof, have been correspondingly adjusted in accordance with their respective terms.

On April 14, 2026, Global Impx, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, issued a short-term promissory note (the “First Bridge Note”) to the Bridge Lender in the principal amount of $150,000.

Upon an Event of Default, outstanding amounts bear interest at an accelerated default rate of 20% per annum, representing a 6% per annum increase over the contractual rate. The First Bridge Note was issued in a private placement exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Proceeds were applied to working capital and general corporate purposes.

In addition, the Company agreed to pay the lender a facilitation fee of $5,000 (representing 2% of the principal amount), which is fully earned on the date of disbursement and payable in full at maturity together with the principal and accrued interest. The Second Bridge Note does not contain conversion or other equity-linked features. Upon an Event of Default, outstanding amounts bear interest at an accelerated default rate of 26% per annum, and a late payment charge equal to 2% of the then-outstanding balance becomes payable. The Second Bridge Note was issued in a private placement exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Proceeds were applied to working capital and general corporate purposes.

Bridge Loan Facility
On May 15, 2026, the Company entered into a bridge loan agreement with the Bridge Lender providing for a short-term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $1,500,000 (the “Facility”). The Facility may be drawn in one or more advances (each, a “Tranche”) upon the Company’s request, subject to the lender’s approval of each drawdown request. Each Tranche, together with the applicable fee described below, is payable in full on the date falling 60 calendar days after such Tranche is funded. No interest accrues on any Tranche; in lieu of interest, the Company is obligated to pay a fee equal to 10% of the principal amount of each Tranche, which is fully earned upon funding of that Tranche and payable upon its repayment. The Company may prepay any Tranche at any time without penalty, provided that any such prepayment includes the full outstanding principal amount and the full applicable fee for that Tranche. Repayment of a Tranche does not create a right to redraw absent the lender’s separate agreement.
The Facility is secured by a security interest in substantially all assets of the Company, including accounts receivable, cash, deposit accounts, investment property, inventory, equipment, intellectual property and general intangibles, which security interest is subordinate to the interests of the Company’s existing senior secured creditors. Upon an Event of Default, the lender may declare all outstanding Tranches and accrued fees immediately due and payable, and outstanding amounts bear default interest at 20% per annum. The Facility contains affirmative covenants requiring the Company to furnish copies of its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, to provide periodic updates regarding its pursuit of a listing on a national securities exchange, and to provide prompt written notice upon obtaining commitments for alternative financing that would be used to repay the Facility.
During the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company drew Tranches in principal amounts of $200,000, $300,000, $150,000, $100,000 and $100,000, funded on May 18, 2026, May 27, 2026, June 5, 2026, June 9, 2026 and June 25, 2026, respectively, with corresponding fees of $20,000, $15,000, $10,000 and $10,000 and stated maturities of July 17, 2026, July 27, 2026, August 4, 2026, August 8, 2026 and August 25, 2026, respectively. Aggregate principal drawn under the Facility through June 30, 2026 was $850,000, together with aggregate fees of $85,000. Subsequent to June 30, 2026, the Company and the Bridge Lender agreed to extend the maturity date of each outstanding Tranche to August 31, 2026. For the reasons described under “Short-Term Bridge Loans” above, borrowings under the Facility constitute transactions with a related party. Proceeds were applied to working capital and general corporate purposes.
Subsequent to June 30, 2026, the Company drew two additional Tranches under the Facility, in principal amounts of $110,000 and $150,000, funded on July 17, 2026 and July 21, 2026, respectively, with corresponding fees of $11,000 and $15,000 and stated maturities of September 15, 2026 and September 19, 2026, respectively. Each such Tranche was drawn on the same terms as the Tranches described above, bearing no interest and carrying a fee equal to 10% of the principal amount of that Tranche, fully earned upon funding and payable upon repayment. After giving effect to these draws, $910,000 in principal and $91,000 in fees had been drawn under the Facility, leaving $590,000 of the $1,500,000 commitment available. As of the date of this filing, the full $910,000 principal amount drawn remained outstanding.

election at any time following the six-month anniversary of the issuance date at a conversion price equal to 65% of the lowest trading price of the common stock during the fifteen trading days immediately preceding the applicable conversion date, subject to a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation that the holder may increase to not more than 9.9% upon 60 days’ prior written notice. If the common stock becomes subject to a deposit chill at The Depository Trust Company, the conversion price is reduced to 55% of the lowest trading price during the same measurement period for so long as the chill remains in effect. The Company may prepay a July 1 Note prior to the 180th day following issuance at premiums ranging from 105% to 140% of principal plus accrued interest depending on the date of prepayment, and may not prepay thereafter. The Company is required to reserve 169,669 shares of common stock for issuance upon conversion of each July 1 Note, or 339,338 shares in the aggregate. Upon an Event of Default, interest accrues at 24% per annum and the conversion price is reduced to 50% of the lowest trading price during the applicable measurement period. Events of Default under each July 1 Note include the failure of the common stock to maintain a bid price in the market on which it trades, the penalty for which is an increase in the then-outstanding principal amount by 20%, delinquency in the Company’s periodic report filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which after the six-month anniversary of the note entitles the holder to use the lowest closing bid price during the delinquency period as the base price for subsequent conversions, and a change in a majority of the members of the Board of Directors serving as of the issuance date. The related securities purchase agreements contain a most-favored-nation provision in favor of each investor. Each July 1 Note was issued in a private placement exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Proceeds were applied to working capital and general corporate purposes.
On July 9, 2026, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an accredited investor and issued a convertible promissory note (the “July 9 Note”) in the aggregate principal amount of $90,000, including an original issue discount of $8,000, for a purchase price of $82,000. The investor withheld $2,000 from the purchase price to cover legal fees, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $80,000. The July 9 Note carries a one-time guaranteed interest charge of 14%, equal to $12,600, which is fully earned as of the issuance date and added to the principal balance, resulting in a total repayment obligation of $102,600 due on July 9, 2027. Repayment is structured through six installments of $17,100 commencing on the 180th day following issuance and continuing at thirty-day intervals thereafter, with any remaining balance due on the maturity date. The Company issued the investor 525 restricted shares of common stock as commitment shares, deemed earned in full as of the closing date. The July 9 Note becomes convertible at the holder’s election only following an Event of Default, at a fixed conversion price of $10.00 per share or, at the holder’s election following an uncured Event of Default, at 75% of the lowest trading price of the common stock during the ten trading days immediately preceding the applicable conversion date, in each case subject to a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation. The Company is required to reserve 53,700 shares of common stock for issuance upon conversion. Amounts not paid when due bear interest at the lesser of 24% per annum and the maximum rate permitted by law, and upon an Event of Default amounts outstanding become due at 150% of the then-outstanding principal and accrued interest. The July 9 Note and the related Securities Purchase Agreement contain a most-favored-nation provision in favor of the investor, restrictions on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and on the disposition of assets outside the ordinary course of business without the holder’s consent, and cross-default provisions. The July 9 Note was issued in a private placement exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Proceeds were applied to working capital and general corporate purposes.
On July 18, 2026, the Company issued a promissory note (the “July 18 Note”) to an institutional accredited investor in the aggregate principal amount of $150,000, including an original issue discount of $15,000, for a purchase price of $135,000. The July 18 Note carries a one-time interest charge of 12% applied to the principal amount on the issuance date, equal to $18,000, which is guaranteed and fully earned as of the issuance date, resulting in a total repayment obligation of $168,000 due on July 18, 2027. In addition to all other payment obligations, the Company is required to make eight amortization payments in cash, consisting of six payments of $24,000 commencing 140 calendar days after the closing date and continuing at thirty-day intervals thereafter, a seventh payment of $23,000, and a final payment of all remaining outstanding amounts on July 18, 2027; each amortization payment is applied first to accrued and unpaid interest and then to outstanding principal. The July 18 Note becomes convertible at the holder’s election on the earlier of the occurrence of an Event of Default and the Company’s failure to pay an amortization payment when due, at a conversion price equal to 65% of the lowest traded price of the common stock during the fifteen trading days immediately preceding the applicable conversion date, subject to a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation. The Company is required to reserve for issuance the greater of 1,000,000 shares of common stock and three times the number of shares issuable upon full conversion of the July 18 Note. The July 18 Note is an unsecured obligation of the Company and may be prepaid upon three trading days’ prior written notice at 100% of the principal and accrued interest then outstanding plus a $750 administrative fee, during which notice period the holder may instead elect to convert. Amounts not paid when due bear interest at the lesser of 22% per annum and the maximum rate permitted by law, and upon an Event of Default amounts outstanding become due at 150% of the then-outstanding principal and accrued interest. Events of Default under the July 18 Note include the Company’s failure to maintain a market capitalization of at least $10,000,000 on any trading day, the suspension or halting of trading in the common stock or its failure to be quoted or listed on a principal market, and cross-defaults with other indebtedness of the Company. The July 18 Note and the related Securities Purchase Agreement contain a most-favored-nation provision, a dilutive issuance adjustment to the conversion price, a prohibition on the Company entering into any transaction structured under Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act, restrictions on affiliate transactions and asset dispositions, and a provision entitling the holder, at
60
its election, to require the Company to apply up to 50% of the cash proceeds of any public offering of securities or sale of assets to repayment of the July 18 Note. The July 18 Note was issued in a private placement exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Proceeds were applied to working capital and general corporate purposes.
On August 17, 2026, the Company issued an unsecured convertible promissory note to an institutional accredited investor in the principal amount of $250,000, for a purchase price of $225,000, reflecting an original issue discount of $25,000. After $11,000 of legal and due diligence costs withheld by the investor, net proceeds to the Company were approximately $214,000. The note bears interest at 10% per annum, with the first twelve months of interest, equal to $25,000, guaranteed and earned upon issuance, and matures on August 17, 2027. Repayment is structured through six monthly amortization payments of approximately $39,000 commencing 180 days after closing, with the remaining balance due at maturity. Following an Event of Default or missed amortization payment, the holder may convert outstanding amounts into shares of the Company’s common stock at 75% of the lowest traded price during the fifteen trading days preceding conversion, subject to a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation. The note was issued in a private placement exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D. Proceeds are to be used for business development and general working capital.
The Company is evaluating the accounting for the July 1 Notes, the July 9 Note and the July 18 Note, including whether the conversion features embedded in each note require bifurcation and separate measurement as derivative liabilities under ASC 815, and the amount and amortization of the related debt discounts. See Note 15: Subsequent Events.
Purchase Order Financing Advance
On April 8, 2026, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Keen Labs Operations, Inc., received an additional advance under the previously disclosed factoring and security agreement (as amended) with its lender. Pursuant to a supplier letter agreement among the lender, Keen Labs Operations, Inc., and a third party vendor, the lender remitted approximately $134,000 directly to the vendor representing the balance due on an approved purchase order, net of a deposit previously paid by Keen Labs Operations, Inc. and a warranty holdback payable upon delivery and acceptance of the goods.
The advance is governed by the existing terms of the facility, with charges accruing at 1.625% per 15 day period from the date of advance until the related invoice is verified and funded. The obligation is secured by substantially all assets of the applicable obligors under the facility’s cross collateralization and cross default provisions and is guaranteed by the Company.
On August 6, 2026, Keen Labs Operations, Inc. received two additional advances under the same facility with the same lender. The advances were remitted directly to the manufacturer representing final payments due on two separate approved purchase orders, in the amounts of approximately $179,000 and $142,000, respectively. Charges on these advances accrue at 1.55% for the initial 30 day period, plus 0.55% for each 10 day period thereafter, from the date of advance until the related invoices are verified and funded. These advances are secured and guaranteed on the same basis as the facility’s existing terms described above.
Conversion Activity Under SEPA Convertible Promissory Note
On April 21, 2026, the holder of the Company’s outstanding convertible promissory note dated December 17, 2024 (issued in connection with the Company’s previously disclosed Standby Equity Purchase Agreement) submitted a conversion notice with respect to a portion of the outstanding balance under such note. Pursuant to the conversion, $190,000 of outstanding principal and $5,000 of accrued interest, representing a total conversion amount of $195,000, were converted into 35,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and delivered to the holder’s designated brokerage account. Following this conversion, the remaining outstanding principal balance under the note was approximately $800,000.
On May 5, 2026, the holder submitted an additional conversion notice with respect to a further portion of the outstanding balance under the same note.

Following this conversion, the remaining outstanding principal balance under the note is $600,000.
The shares issued in each of the foregoing conversions were issued in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as conversions of an existing security of the same issuer without additional consideration.

The agreement extinguished the Company’s accrued earn-out obligations for the 2024 and 2025 measurement periods in full, resulting in a gain on extinguishment of approximately $167,162 in accordance with ASC 405-20, Liabilities—Extinguishments of Liabilities. As of June 30, 2026, $206,000 is outstanding payable to Seller.

Pursuant to the conversion, $1,084,384, representing outstanding principal together with accrued but unpaid interest, was converted into 210,944 shares of the Company’s common stock. The shares were issued in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as a conversion of an existing security of the same issuer without additional consideration. The note was fully satisfied and cancelled upon completion of the conversion.
Key Operating and Financial Metrics and Outlook
We regularly review a number of metrics, including the following key operating and financial metrics, to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends in our business, prepare financial projections and make strategic decisions. We believe the operating and financial metrics presented below are useful in evaluating our operating performance, as they are similar to measures by our public competitors and are regularly used by security analysts, institutional investors and other interested parties in analyzing operating performance and prospects. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP measures, which exclude the results of discontinued operations, are not financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as substitutes for net (loss) income or net (loss) income margin, respectively, calculated in accordance with GAAP. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for additional information on non-GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin
We define gross profit as revenue, net less cost of revenues and depreciation and amortization related to cost of revenues, and define gross margin, expressed as a percentage, as the ratio of gross profit to revenue, net. See “— Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a reconciliation of Gross Profit and Gross Margin.
Contribution Profit and Contribution Margin
We define contribution profit as revenue, net less direct costs of revenue, commissions expense and depreciation and amortization, and define contribution margin, expressed as a percentage, as the ratio of contribution profit to revenue, net. Contribution profit and margin can be used to understand our financial performance and efficiency and allows investors to evaluate our pricing strategy and compare against competitors. Our management uses these metrics to make strategic decisions, identify areas for improvement, set targets
62
for future performance and make informed decisions about how to allocate resources going forward. Contribution margin reflects our Contribution profit as a percentage of revenues. See “— Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a reconciliation of Gross Profit to Contribution Profit and Contribution Margin.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
We define Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, as net income (loss) before interest and, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, loss (gain) on change in fair value of financial instruments, stock based compensation, loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt and payable, loss on disposal of business, and transaction and integration related expenses. Adjusted EBITDA margin reflects our Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues. See “— Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a reconciliation of GAAP net loss to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The non-GAAP financial measures in this Quarterly Report have not been calculated in accordance with GAAP and should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin should not be construed as indicators of our operating performance, liquidity or cash flows generated by operating, investing and financing activities, as there may be significant factors or trends that they fail to address. We caution investors that non-GAAP financial information, by its nature, departs from traditional accounting conventions. Therefore, its use can make it difficult to compare our current results with our results from other reporting periods and with the results of other companies.
Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, as an integral part of managing our business and to, among other things: (i) monitor and evaluate the performance of our business operations and financial performance; (ii) facilitate internal comparisons of the historical operating performance of our business operations; (iii) facilitate external comparisons of the results of our overall business to the historical operating performance of other companies that may have different capital structures and debt levels; (iv) review and assess the operating performance of our management team; (v) analyze and evaluate financial and strategic planning decisions regarding future operating investments; and (vi) plan for and prepare future annual operating budgets and determine appropriate levels of operating investments. We believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends, and in comparing our financial results with other companies in our industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.

Adjusted EBITDA
We define Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, as net income (loss) before interest and, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, loss (gain) on change in fair value of financial instruments, stock based compensation, loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt and payable, loss on disposal of business, and transaction and integration related expenses. We utilize Adjusted EBITDA as an internal performance measure in the management of our operations because we believe the exclusion of these non-cash and non-recurring charges allow for a more relevant comparison of our results of operations to other companies in our industry. Adjusted EBITDA should not be viewed as a substitute for net (loss) income calculated in accordance with GAAP, and other companies may define Adjusted EBITDA differently. Adjusted EBITDA margin reflects our Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues. The adjusted EBIDTA excludes gain from discontinued operations for all periods presented.

Key Factors Affecting Operating Results
The Company believes our performance and future success depend on several factors that present significant opportunities for us but also pose risks and challenges, including but not limited to those discussed in Item 1A “Risk Factors”.
We expect to derive future revenue from (i) our existing high margin recurring revenue products, (ii) our expanded service offerings leveraging our existing customer and developer networks, (iii) expanding our existing software and AI capabilities through development of additional software tools aimed at solving pain points and increasing profitability for service providers, OEMs and other enterprise customers, (iv) an expanded customer base through client referrals and our customized, relationship-focused sales process, and (v) a continued focus on international expansion for sales and distribution of our products and services.

Key Components of Our Results of Operations
Revenue
ConnectM’s revenue is derived from contracts with customers and is recognized in accordance with ASC 606, comprising (i) installation and maintenance services for solar energy systems and HVAC solutions across customers, (ii) logistics and delivery services, (iii) product sales of hardware with embedded software to OEMs and wholesale distribution of heat pump equipment and smart controls through national distribution partners, (iv) software subscription services providing access to the Company’s IIoT platform, (v) managed solutions including HR, procurement, marketing and lead generation services, (vi) distributed energy and renewables services in India, including EPC activities, sale of electricity under power purchase agreements, and ongoing energy management (vii) Keen Labs platform offerings, including industrial IoT hardware, energy storage systems, smart heat pumps, connected vehicle technologies, the wholesale procurement and distribution of solar energy equipment and balance-of-system components to U.S. installation partners and (viii) HKA provides specialized engineering, logistics support, technical documentation and lifecycle support services primarily to the U.S. Department of Defense and defense industry customers. We fulfill obligations and recognize revenue under a contract with a customer by transferring products and services in exchange for consideration from the customer. Payments received or consideration billed in advance are recorded as deferred revenue.
65
Under our contracts in the managed solutions segment, working capital adjustments may be processed quarterly, if year-to-date costs incurred by the customer exceed the percentage of the customer’s revenue and are recorded as a reduction of selling, general and administrative expenses as it represents the customer’s reimbursement of costs incurred by us.
The Company excludes from revenue the taxes collected from customers and remitted to government authorities related to sales of our inventory. Shipping and handling costs that are billed to customers are included in net sales.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of Revenue consists of personnel-related expenses, including salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation, and facility costs for the Company’s operations and manufacturing teams. Cost of Revenue also includes expenses for costs of equipment and professional services related to the maintenance or installation of equipment. The Company is actively managing operations costs to drive gross margin expansion, operating leverage, and improved operating cash flow as revenue scales.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative expenses consist of personnel-related expenses, including salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization, and allocated facility costs for our business development, marketing, corporate, executive, finance, legal, human resources, IT, and other administrative functions. General and administrative expenses also include expenses for outside professional services, including legal, auditing and accounting services, recruitment expenses, travel expenses and certain non-income taxes, insurance, and other administrative expenses.
While selling, general and administrative expenses may continue to reflect the costs of operating as a public company, including SEC compliance, legal, audit, insurance, and investor relations, the Company is focused on managing these expenses to achieve operating leverage as revenue scales.
Loss on impairment of intangible assets
Loss on impairment of intangible assets consist of non-cash charges recognized when the carrying value of certain intangible assets exceeds their recoverable amount. The Company performs impairment assessments whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an intangible asset may not be recoverable. The recognition of such losses reflects management’s ongoing evaluation of the continued utility and value of acquired intangibles in the context of the Company’s evolving operations and strategic priorities.

Revenues
Revenue increased approximately $1,909,000, or 24%, to approximately $9,794,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from approximately $7,885,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to the Company’s Logistics and Keen Labs segments, which generated revenue of $3,626,992 and $3,854,734, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and together represented approximately 76% of total revenue, partially offset by continued declines in the Owned Service Network and Managed Solutions segments, reflecting the Company’s rationalization of certain HVAC, solar, and other home service operations, including the divestiture of Green Energy Gains and the wind-down of Blue Sky Electric, Inc., both completed in the first quarter of 2026, and the termination of the AC Authority MSA during the second quarter of 2026.
Revenue increased approximately $1,300,000, or 8%, to approximately $17,440,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from approximately $16,140,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to the Company’s Logistics and Keen Labs segments, which generated revenue of $6,738,332 and $5,704,660, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and together represented approximately 71% of total revenue, partially offset by continued declines in the Owned Service Network and Managed Solutions segments, reflecting the Company’s rationalization of certain HVAC, solar, and other home service operations, including the divestiture of Green Energy Gains and the wind-down of Blue Sky Electric, Inc., both completed in the first quarter of 2026, and the termination of the AC Authority MSA during the second quarter of 2026. The smaller increase on a six-month basis, relative to the 24% increase for the quarter alone, reflects the sequential acceleration of revenue in the Logistics and Keen Labs segments during the second quarter relative to the first.
Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit
Cost of revenues increased approximately $1,986,000, or 40%, to approximately $6,990,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from approximately $5,004,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to cost of revenue in the Company’s Logistics and Keen Labs segments, of $2,823,815 and $2,700,005, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, partially offset by reduced costs in the Owned Service Network segment resulting from divestitures and wind-downs amid the Company’s ongoing segment rationalization. Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was approximately $2,804,000, representing a gross margin of 28.6%, compared to approximately $2,881,000 and 36.5% for the three months ended June
67
30, 2025. The decline in gross margin percentage reflects the revenue mix shift toward the Company’s Logistics and Keen Labs segments, which generated gross margins of approximately 22.1% and 30.0%, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, below the approximately 37.0% margin generated by the Owned Service Network segment, together with the continued wind-down of higher-margin Owned Service Network revenue that was unprofitable at the operating level. Both the Logistics and Keen Labs segments generated positive income from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2026, consistent with the Company’s continued strategic focus on segments that contribute positively to operating results despite lower gross margins.
Cost of revenues increased approximately $2,438,000, or 24%, to approximately $12,771,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from approximately $10,333,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to cost of revenue in the Company’s Logistics and Keen Labs segments, of $5,250,912 and $3,907,269, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2026, partially offset by reduced costs in the Owned Service Network segment resulting from divestitures and wind-downs amid the Company’s ongoing segment rationalization. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was approximately $4,669,000, representing a gross margin of 26.8%, compared to approximately $5,806,000 and 36.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decline in gross margin percentage reflects the revenue mix shift toward the Company’s Logistics and Keen Labs segments, which generated gross margins of approximately 22.1% and 31.5%, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2026, below the approximately 26.9% margin generated by the Owned Service Network segment for the same period. Both the Logistics and Keen Labs segments generated positive income from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2026, consistent with the Company’s continued strategic focus on segments that contribute positively to operating results despite lower gross margins.
Selling, General and Administrative expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased approximately $1,024,000, or 16%, to approximately $5,398,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from approximately $6,421,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease reflects the Company’s continued cost rationalization efforts, including the wind-down and divestiture of certain Owned Service Network entities and tighter management of corporate overhead, partially offset by selling, general and administrative expenses associated with the Company’s Logistics and Keen Labs segments of $514,521 and $960,322, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2026. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expenses improved from 81.4% in the prior-year quarter to 55.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, reflecting both the lower expense base and higher revenue in the current quarter.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased approximately $2,438,000, or 19%, to approximately $10,118,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from approximately $12,556,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease reflects the Company’s continued cost rationalization efforts, including the wind-down and divestiture of certain Owned Service Network entities and tighter management of corporate overhead, partially offset by selling, general and administrative expenses associated with the Company’s Logistics and Keen Labs segments of $1,175,854 and $1,613,470, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2026. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expenses improved from 77.8% in the prior-year period to 58.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2026.

Total other income (expense), net was income of approximately $1,739,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to expense of approximately $3,353,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an improvement of approximately $5,093,000. The improvement was primarily driven by change in fair value of investment in equity securities of approximately $2,313,000, following the closing of the Blue Cloud Transaction on June 17, 2026, and equity in earnings of equity method investee of approximately $427,000 from the Company’s 40% interest in Sun Solar, LLC, neither of which had a comparable contribution in the prior-year quarter.
69
The remaining change reflected several offsetting movements within the Company’s debt and liability-related items. Favorable movements included an approximately $1,374,000 swing in the change in fair value on the Section 3(a)(10) Settlement Agreement (see Note 9), approximately $797,000 improvement in the gain/(loss) on extinguishment of debt and vendor payable, approximately $530,000 improvement in the change in fair value of derivative liabilities, approximately $182,000 improvement in other income (expense), net, approximately $167,000 gain on settlement of contingent consideration, gain on extinguishment of debt by approximately $48,000 and approximately $68,000 improvement in the change in fair value of convertible debt. These were partially offset by approximately $758,000 increase in interest expense to approximately $844,000, reflecting increased borrowings during the period, and a new approximately $36,100 loss on issuance of financial instruments.
Total other expense, net was approximately $1,634,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, a decrease of approximately $5,379,000, or 78%, from approximately $7,013,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by a $3,303,000 improvement in the gain/(loss) on extinguishment of debt and vendor payable, and change in fair value of investment in equity securities of approximately $2,313,000, following the closing of the Blue Cloud Transaction on June 17, 2026, and equity in earnings of equity method investee of approximately $708,000 from the Company’s 40% interest in Sun Solar, LLC, neither of which had a comparable contribution in the prior-year period. These improvements were substantially offset by a $2,909,000 loss recognized in the first quarter of 2026 on the dispositions of Air Temp Service Co. and Green Energy Gains, included in other income (expense), net (see Note 4, Disposals and Discontinued Operations).
The remaining change reflected the non-recurrence of a $971,000 loss on the change in fair value of the forward purchase agreement, which was no longer outstanding during 2026, together with favorable movements of $892,000 in the change in fair value on the Section 3(a)(10) Settlement Agreement (Note 9), $505,000 in the change in fair value of derivative liabilities, $283,000 in the change in fair value of convertible debt, $167,000 from a gain on settlement of contingent consideration, gain on extinguishment of debt by approximately $48,000 and $55,000 in other income (expense), net. These were partially offset by a $775,000 increase in interest expense to approximately $1,348,000, reflecting increased borrowings during the period, and a new $72,600 loss on issuance of financial instruments.
Result of operations for discontinued operations
Net income from discontinued operations was approximately $13,928,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared with $2,237,000 for the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to the $19,054,000 gain on disposal, partially offset by income tax provision of approximately $4,900,000. The 2025 period included a $2,487,000 bargain purchase gain.
Net income from discontinued operations was $13,488,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with $2,129,000 for the same period in 2025.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2,394,000 and a working capital deficit of approximately $29,761,000, compared to cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2,737,000 as of December 31, 2025. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company incurred a net loss from its continuing operations of approximately $7,406,000 and net cash used in operating activities of approximately $4,586,000, compared to a net loss of approximately $13,763,000 and net cash used in operating activities of approximately $4,311,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. These conditions are indicators of substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year from the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the management of expenses, the ability to obtain necessary financing to meet its obligations and pay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due, and the attainment of profitable operations.
If additional equity or debt financing is required from outside sources, we may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to it or at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital on acceptable terms when needed, its results of operations and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected. Any such financing likely would be dilutive to our existing stockholders and could result in significant financial operating covenants that would negatively impact our business.
70
Based on the foregoing, our management has concluded there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
Cash Flows

Net changes in operating assets and liabilities used cash of approximately $282,000, primarily reflecting an increase in accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current assets and a decrease in prepaid and other payables.
Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was approximately $4,311,000. Net cash used in operating activities consisted primarily of net loss of approximately $13,763,000 which stem from the increased operating expenses such as heightened legal and administrative costs due to ongoing debt restructuring efforts, alongside inflationary pressures on overhead, which have notably impacted our cash flow despite efforts to streamline operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements during the periods presented, and we do not currently have any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in the SEC rules and regulations.
Commitments and Contractual Obligations
Refer to the accompanying notes to the financial statements for future contractual obligations and commitments. Future contractual obligations and commitments are based on the terms of the relevant agreements and appropriate classification of items under U.S. GAAP as currently in effect. Future events could cause actual payments to differ from these amounts.
We incur contractual obligations and financial commitments in the normal course of our operations and financing activities. Contractual obligations include future cash payments required under existing contracts, such as debt and lease agreements. These obligations may result from both general financing activities and from commercial arrangements that are directly supported by related operating activities.
Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Management Estimates
In the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements and in Part II, “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K, we have disclosed those accounting policies that we consider to be most significant in determining our results of operations and financial condition and involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity. There have been no changes to those policies that we consider to be material since the filing of our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The accounting principles used in preparing our condensed consolidated financial statements conform in all material respects to U.S. GAAP.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
This item is omitted as it is not required for a smaller reporting company.
72
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of our fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2026. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer has concluded that, as of June 30, 2026, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.
Management has initiated a remediation plan designed to address these material weaknesses. The plan includes strengthening our financial reporting resources, enhancing documentation and review procedures, and implementing additional monitoring and oversight controls. The Company is committed to remediating the identified weaknesses as quickly as practicable, although the material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until the improved processes and controls have been operating effectively for a sufficient period of time.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
73
PART II
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
From time to time, we may be party to or otherwise involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. We recognize provisions for legal proceedings in our financial statements, in accordance with accounting rules, when we are advised by independent outside counsel that (i) it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and (ii) a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The assessment of the likelihood of loss includes analysis by outside counsel of available evidence, the hierarchy of laws, available case law, recent court rulings and their relevance in the legal system. Our provisions for probable losses arising from these matters are estimated and periodically adjusted by management. In making these adjustments our management relies on the opinions of our external legal advisors. Management does not believe that there is any pending or threatened proceeding against us, which, if determined adversely, would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition, except as described below.
On February 26, 2024, Robert Zrallack and RJZ Holdings LLC (the “Plaintiffs”) filed suit against Aurai LLC (“Aurai”), ConnectM Florida RE LLC (“ConnectM Florida RE”), and Florida Solar Products, Inc. (“Florida Solar”), each a wholly owned subsidiary of ConnectM, in the circuit court for the 19th judicial circuit (St. Lucie County, Florida). In this suit, the Plaintiffs allege various contract claims arising out of a transaction under which Aurai acquired Florida Solar from Mr. Zrallack in 2022 and ConnectM Florida RE acquired certain real estate from RJZ Holdings LLC in 2022 from which Florida Solar operates.
Specifically, the Plaintiffs allege breach of the stock purchase agreement and certain promissory notes in connection with the purchase of Florida Solar and the related real estate, as well as breach of a services agreement with Mr. Zrallack.
The ConnectM subsidiaries successfully moved to compel arbitration and asserted counterclaims against the Plaintiffs for breach of contract, fraudulent inducement, fraudulent misrepresentation, negligent misrepresentation, and unjust enrichment in connection with the underlying sale.
Following a hearing held on April 30, 2026, the court denied the Company’s motion to vacate and granted Plaintiffs’ motion to confirm the arbitration award. Plaintiffs’ counsel subsequently circulated a proposed final judgment which, if entered substantially in its current form, would include aggregate damages, attorneys’ fees, costs, foreclosure-related relief, statutory interest, and other payment obligations totaling in excess of $2.5 million. The Company is evaluating its remaining legal options, including a potential appeal of the order confirming the arbitration award.
The Company has recorded a litigation reserve of approximately $1,024,000 in connection with this matter, representing management’s best estimate of the probable loss in accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies. This reserve is included within the contingent consideration liability, and the remaining balance totalling to approximately $1.5 million associated with this matter is reflected within debt and accrued expenses and other current liabilities. Accordingly, the Company believes the aggregate amount is fully recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and does not believe there is a material unrecorded exposure with respect to this matter. The ultimate outcome of the confirmation proceedings, any motion to vacate, and related enforcement proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty. The final resolution of this matter could result in adjustments to the amount reserved, which could be material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements in the period such adjustment is determined.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as the same may be updated from time to time, which could materially affect our business, financial condition, and future results. The risks described in our Form 10-K are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and operating results. Except to the extent previously updated or to the extent additional factual information disclosed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relates to such risk factors (including, without limitation, the matters discussed in Part I, Item 2 - “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”), there have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as the same may be updated from time to time.

PROMISSORY NOTE
USD $250,000
Date: 19th April, 2026
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, ConnectM Technology Solutions, Inc., a corporation duly incorporated and existing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, having its principal place of business at 2 Mount Royal Ave, Suite 550, Marlborough, MA 01752 (the “Borrower”), hereby unconditionally promises to pay to AstraBridge Inc., a Wyoming corporation having its registered office at 30 N Gould St, Ste R, Sheridan, WY 82801 (the “Lender”), or its permitted assigns, the principal sum of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand United States Dollars (USD $250,000) (the “Principal Amount”), together with interest, fees, and other amounts payable as set forth herein.
This Promissory Note (this “Note”) evidences a short-term bridge loan extended by the Lender to the Borrower for legitimate business purposes, including working capital and general corporate requirements. The Principal Amount outstanding from time to time shall bear interest at a rate of twenty percent (20%) per annum, calculated on a simple interest basis, computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed, and accruing from the date of disbursement until the date of repayment in full.
In consideration for arranging and making available the foregoing bridge financing, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Lender a facilitation fee equal to two percent (2%) of the Principal Amount, being USD $5,000 (the “Facilitation Fee”). The Facilitation Fee shall be deemed fully earned on the date of disbursement and shall be payable in full, together with the repayment of the Principal Amount and accrued interest, irrespective of any prepayment.
The Loan evidenced hereby shall have a maximum tenure of thirty (30) days from the date of disbursement (the “Maturity Date”). The entire outstanding Principal Amount, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and the Facilitation Fee, shall be due and payable in full on or before the Maturity Date, without the necessity of presentment, demand, protest, or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
The Borrower may, at its option, prepay this Note, in whole or in part, at any time prior to the Maturity Date without any prepayment premium or penalty; provided, however, that all accrued interest up to the date of such prepayment, together with the full Facilitation Fee, shall remain payable.
If the Borrower fails to pay any amount due under this Note on the Maturity Date or upon acceleration following an Event of Default, the outstanding amounts shall thereafter bear additional interest at a rate equal to six percent (6%) per annum above the stated interest rate, resulting in a default rate of twenty-six percent (26%) per annum, from the due date until paid in full. In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay a late payment charge equal to two percent (2%) of
the then-outstanding amount, as a reasonable estimate of the administrative and collection costs incurred by the Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
All payments under this Note shall be made in lawful money of the United States, in immediately available funds, free and clear of any set-off, counterclaim, deduction, or withholding (except as required by law), to the following account of the Borrower, or to such other account as the Lender may designate by written notice:
Account Name: ConnectM Technology Solutions, Inc.
Bank: Bank of America, N.A.
Address: 100 West 33rd Street, New York, NY 10001
Account Number: 004668778699
Routing Number (Domestic Wire): 026009593
The Borrower hereby represents and warrants that it is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under applicable law; that it has full corporate power and authority to execute, deliver, and perform its obligations under this Note; that this Note constitutes its legal, valid, and binding obligation enforceable in accordance with its terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy and equitable principles); and that the execution, delivery, and performance of this Note do not violate any applicable law or any material agreement binding upon it.
Each of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default” under this Note: (i) the Borrower’s failure to pay any principal, interest, fee, or other amount when due and payable; (ii) the Borrower’s breach of any material term, covenant, or provision of this Note; (iii) the institution by or against the Borrower of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or similar proceeding that is not dismissed within the time permitted under applicable law; or (iv) the occurrence of any event or circumstance that has a material adverse effect on the Borrower’s ability to perform its obligations hereunder. Upon the occurrence and continuation of any Event of Default, the Lender may, by written notice to the Borrower, declare all outstanding amounts under this Note to be immediately due and payable, whereupon the same shall become forthwith due and payable without further notice or demand.
Any payments received shall be applied, to the extent permitted by law, first to fees and charges (including any late payment charges), then to default interest, thereafter to accrued interest, and finally to principal. The Borrower hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, diligence, presentment, demand, protest, and notice of dishonor or default.
No failure or delay by the Lender in exercising any right, power, or remedy under this Note shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise preclude any other or further exercise thereof. This Note may not be amended, modified, or supplemented except by a written instrument duly executed by the Borrower and the Lender.
This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict of law principles. If any provision of this Note is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect to the maximum extent permitted by law.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Borrower has caused this Promissory Note to be duly executed by its authorized officer as of the date first written above.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, CONNECTM TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS, INC., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter called the “Borrower”) (Trading Symbol: CNTM), hereby promises to pay to the order of [ ], a [ ] limited liability company, or registered assigns (the “Holder”) the sum of $[ ] (the “Principal”) together with one time guaranteed interest (the “Interest”) on the Principal balance hereof in the amount of fifteen percent (15%) (the “Interest Rate”) per calendar year from the date hereof (the “Issue Date”). All Principal and Interest owing hereunder, along with any and all other amounts, shall be due and owing on March [ ], 2027 (the “Maturity Date”). A lump-sum interest payment for twelve (12) months shall be immediately due on the Issue Date and shall be added to the principal balance and payable on the Maturity Date or upon acceleration or by prepayment or otherwise, notwithstanding the number of days for which the Principal is outstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the final payment of Principal and Interest shall be due on the Maturity Date. This Note may be prepaid in whole or in part as set forth herein. Any amount of Principal or Interest on this Note which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of the lesser of (i) twenty five percent (25%) per annum (which shall be guaranteed and applied to the balance due under the Note upon an Event of Default) and (ii) the maximum amount permitted under law from the due date thereof until the same is paid (the “Default Interest”). All payments due hereunder (to the extent not converted into common stock, no par value per share (the “Common Stock”) in accordance with the terms hereof) shall be paid in USD. All payments shall be made at such address as the Holder shall hereafter give to the Borrower by written notice made in accordance with the provisions of this Note.
Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Note is due on any day which is not a business day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day which is a business day and, in the case of any interest payment date which is not the date on which this Note is paid in full, the extension of the due date thereof shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining the amount of interest due on such date. As used in this Note, the term “business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banks in the city of New York, New York are authorized or required by law or executive order to remain closed. Each capitalized term used herein, and not otherwise defined, shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated the date hereof, pursuant to which this Note was originally issued (the “Purchase Agreement”).
This Note is free from all taxes, liens, claims and encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof and shall not be subject to preemptive rights or other similar rights of shareholders of the Borrower and will not impose personal liability upon the holder thereof.
The following terms shall also apply to this Note:
ARTICLE I. CONVERSION RIGHTS
1.1Conversion Right. The Holder of this Note is entitled, at its option after an Event of Default, to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal, interest, penalties, and all other amounts under this Note into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, as such Common Stock exists on the Issue Date, or any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified at the Conversion Price (as defined below) determined as provided herein (a “Conversion”); provided, however, that in no event shall the Holder be entitled to convert any portion of this Note in excess of that portion of this Note upon conversion of which the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the Notes or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other security of the Borrower subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitations contained herein) and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the portion of this Note with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. For purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Regulations 13D-G thereunder, except as otherwise provided in clause (1) of such proviso. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing the Conversion Amount (as defined below) by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect on the date specified in the notice of conversion, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Notice of Conversion”), delivered to the Borrower or Borrower’s transfer agent by the Holder in accordance with Section 1.4 below; provided that the Notice of Conversion is submitted by facsimile or e-mail (or by other means resulting in, or reasonably expected to result in, notice) to the Borrower or Borrower’s transfer agent before 11:59 p.m., New York, New York time on such conversion date (the “Conversion Date”). The term “Conversion Amount” means, with respect to
2
any conversion of this Note, the sum of (1) the principal amount of this Note to be converted in such conversion plus (2) at the Holder’s option, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such principal amount at the interest rates provided in this Note to the Conversion Date, provided however, that the Borrower shall have the right to pay any or all interest in cash plus (3) at the Holder’s option, Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (1) and/or (2) plus (4) at the Holder’s option, any amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Sections 1.3 and 1.4(g) hereof.
1.2Conversion Price.
Calculation of Conversion Price. Subject to the adjustments described herein, the conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) shall be equal to 65% of the lowest trading price for the 20 Trading Days immediately preceding the delivery of a Notice of Conversion. To the extent the Conversion Price of the Borrower’s Common Stock closes below the par value per share, the Borrower will take all steps necessary to solicit the consent of the stockholders to reduce the par value to the lowest value possible under law. The Borrower agrees to honor all conversions submitted pending this adjustment. If the shares of the Borrower’s Common Stock have not been delivered within three (3) business days to the Borrower or Borrower’s transfer agent, the Notice of Conversion may be rescinded. If the Trading Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date in the manner provided above, the Trading Price shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by the Borrower and the holders of a majority in interest of the Notes being converted for which the calculation of the Trading Price is required in order to determine the Conversion Price of such Notes. “Trading Day” shall mean any day on which the Common Stock is tradable for any period on the OTC Pink, OTCQB, or on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being traded.
(a)Conversion Price During Major Announcements. Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 1.2(a) to the contrary, in the event the Borrower (i) makes a public announcement that it intends to consolidate or merge with any other corporation (other than a merger in which the Borrower is the surviving or continuing corporation and its capital stock is unchanged) or sell or transfer all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower or (ii) any person, group or entity (including the Borrower) publicly announces a tender offer to purchase 50% or more of the Borrower’s Common Stock (or any other takeover scheme) (the date of the announcement referred to in clause (i) or (ii) is hereinafter referred to as the “Announcement Date”), then the Conversion Price shall, effective upon the Announcement Date and continuing through the Adjusted Conversion Price Termination Date (as defined below), be equal to the lower of (x) the Conversion Price which would have been applicable for a Conversion occurring on the Announcement Date and (y) the Conversion Price that would otherwise be in effect. From and after the Adjusted Conversion Price Termination Date, the Conversion Price shall be determined as set forth in this Section 1.2(a). For purposes hereof, “Adjusted Conversion Price Termination Date” shall mean, with respect to any proposed transaction or tender offer (or takeover scheme) for which a public announcement as contemplated by this Section 1.2(b) has been made, the date upon which the Borrower (in the case of clause (i) above) or the person, group or entity (in the
3
case of clause (ii) above) consummates or publicly announces the termination or abandonment of the proposed transaction or tender offer (or takeover scheme) which caused this Section 1.2(b) to become operative.
(b)Pro Rata Conversion; Disputes. In the event of a dispute as to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder in connection with a conversion of this Note, the Borrower shall issue to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock not in dispute and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 4.13.
(c)If at any time the Conversion Price as determined hereunder for any conversion would be less than the par value of the Common Stock, then the Conversion Price hereunder shall equal such par value for such conversion and the Conversion Amount for such conversion shall be increased to include Additional Principal, where “Additional Principal” means such additional amount to be added to the Conversion Amount to the extent necessary to cause the number of conversion shares issuable upon such conversion to equal the same number of conversion shares as would have been issued had the Conversion Price not been subject to the minimum price set forth in this Section 1.2(c).
1.3Authorized Shares. The Borrower covenants that during the period while any outstanding balance is owing hereunder, the Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note. If, during the term of the Note, the Borrower shall issue any securities or make any change to its capital structure which would change the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Notes shall be convertible at the then current Conversion Price, the Borrower shall at the same time make proper provision so that thereafter there shall be a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, for conversion of the outstanding Note. The Borrower (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer agent to issue book shares or certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged with the duty of causing book shares to be issued or for executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Reserved Amount be lower than the initial Reserved Amount, regardless of any prior conversions.
1.4Method of Conversion.
(a)Mechanics of Conversion. Subject to Section 1.1, this Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part at any time from time to time after an Event of Default, by (A) submitting to the Borrower or Borrower’s transfer agent a Notice of Conversion (by facsimile, e-mail or other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date
4
prior to 11:59 p.m., New York, New York time) and (B) subject to Section 1.4(b), surrendering this Note at the principal office of the Borrower.
(b)Surrender of Note Upon Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Borrower unless the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note is so converted. The Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the principal amount so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Borrower, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, such records of the Borrower shall, prima facie, be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any portion of this Note is converted as aforesaid, the Holder may not transfer this Note unless the Holder first physically surrenders this Note to the Borrower, whereupon the Borrower will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Note of like tenor, registered as the Holder (upon payment by the Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may request, representing in the aggregate the remaining unpaid principal amount of this Note. 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 represented by this Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
(c)Payment of Taxes. The Borrower shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of shares of Common Stock or other securities or property on conversion of this Note in a name other than that of the Holder (or in street name), and the Borrower shall not be required to issue or deliver any such shares or other securities or property unless and until the person or persons (other than the Holder or the custodian in whose street name such shares are to be held for the Holder’s account) requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Borrower the amount of any such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Borrower that such tax has been paid.
(d)Delivery of Common Stock Upon Conversion. Upon receipt by the Borrower from the Holder of a facsimile transmission or e-mail (or other reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in this Section 1.4, the Borrower shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion within three (3) business days after such receipt (the “Deadline”) (and, solely in the case of conversion of the entire unpaid principal amount hereof, surrender of this Note) in accordance with the terms hereof and the Purchase Agreement.
(e)Obligation of Borrower to Deliver Common Stock. Upon receipt by the Borrower of a Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on this Note shall be reduced to reflect such conversion, and, unless the Borrower defaults on its obligations under this Article I, all rights with respect to the portion of this Note being so converted shall forthwith terminate except the right to receive the Common Stock or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such conversion. If the Holder
5
shall have given a Notice of Conversion as provided herein, the Borrower’s obligation to issue and deliver the certificates for Common Stock shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the absence of any action by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or any action to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of any other obligation of the Borrower to the holder of record, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder of any obligation to the Borrower, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Borrower to the Holder in connection with such conversion. The Conversion Date specified in the Notice of Conversion shall be the Conversion Date so long as the Notice of Conversion is received by the Borrower before 11:59 p.m., New York, New York time, on such date.
(f)Delivery of Common Stock by Electronic Transfer. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon conversion, provided the Borrower is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) program, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions contained in Section 1.1 and in this Section 1.4, the Borrower shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Common Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder’s Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal At Custodian (“DWAC”) system.
(g)DTC Eligibility & Market Loss. If the Borrower fails to maintain its status as “DTC Eligible” for any reason, the principal amount of the Note shall increase by ten percent 10% (under Holder’s and Borrower’s expectation that any principal amount increase will tack back to the Issue Date).
(h)Failure to Deliver Common Stock Prior to Delivery Deadline. Without in any way limiting the Holder’s right to pursue other remedies, including actual damages and/or equitable relief, the parties agree that if delivery of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note is not delivered by the Deadline (other than a failure due to the circumstances described in Section 1.3 above, which failure shall be governed by such Section) the Borrower shall pay to the Holder $1,000 per day in cash, for each day beyond the Deadline that the Borrower fails to deliver such Common Stock until the Borrower issues and delivers a certificate to the Holder or credit the Holder's balance account with the transfer agent of the Company for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon such Holder's conversion of any Conversion Amount (under Holder's and Borrower's expectation that any damages will tack back to the Issue Date). Such cash amount shall be paid to Holder by the fifth day of the month following the month in which it has accrued or, at the option of the Holder (by written notice to the Borrower by the first day of the month following the month in which it has accrued), shall be added to the principal amount of this Note, in which event interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of this Note and such additional principal amount shall be convertible into Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Note. The Borrower agrees that the right to convert is a valuable right to the Holder. The damages resulting from a failure, attempt to frustrate, interference with such conversion rights are difficult if not impossible to qualify. Accordingly, the parties acknowledge that the liquidated damages provision contained in this Section 1.4(h) are justified.
6
(i)Rescindment of a Notice of Conversion. If (i) the Borrower fails to respond to Holder within one (1) business day from the Conversion Date confirming the details of Notice of Conversion, (ii) the Borrower fails to provide any of the shares of the Borrower’s Common Stock requested in the Notice of Conversion within three (3) business days from the date of receipt of the Note of Conversion, (iii) the Holder is unable to procure a legal opinion required to have the shares of the Borrower’s Common Stock issued unrestricted and/or deposited to sell for any reason related to the Borrower’s standing, (iv) the Holder is unable to deposit the shares of the Borrower’s Common Stock requested in the Notice of Conversion for any reason related to the Borrower’s standing, (v) at any time after a missed Deadline, at the Holder’s sole discretion, or (vi) if OTC Markets changes the Borrower's designation to ‘Limited Information’ (Yield), ‘No Information’ (Stop Sign), ‘Caveat Emptor’ (Skull & Crossbones), ‘OTC’, ‘Other OTC’ or ‘Grey Market’ (Exclamation Mark Sign) or other trading restriction on the day of or any day after the Conversion Date, the Holder maintains the option and sole discretion to rescind the Notice of Conversion (“Rescindment”) with a “Notice of Rescindment.”
1.5Concerning the Shares. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred unless (i) such shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act or (ii) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have been furnished with an opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration or (iii) such shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Act (or a successor rule) (“Rule 144”) or other applicable exemption or (iv) such shares are transferred to an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144) of the Borrower who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the shares only in accordance with this Section 1.5 and who is an Accredited Investor (as defined in the Purchase Agreement). Except as otherwise provided in the Purchase Agreement (and subject to the removal provisions set forth below), until such time as the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note have been registered under the Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 or other applicable exemption without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, each certificate for shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note that has not been so included in an effective registration statement or that has not been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption that permits removal of the legend, shall bear a legend substantially in the following form, as appropriate:
“NEITHER THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE EXERCISABLE HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH COUNSEL SHALL BE SELECTED BY THE HOLDER), IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A UNDER SAID ACT OR OTHER APPLICABLE EXEMPTION. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE
7
PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.”
The legend set forth above shall be removed and the Borrower shall issue to the Holder a new certificate therefore free of any transfer legend if (i) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have received an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Common Stock may be made without registration under the Act, which opinion shall be reasonably accepted by the Borrower so that the sale or transfer is effected or (ii) in the case of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, such security is registered for sale by the Holder under an effective registration statement filed under the Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 or other applicable exemption without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold. In the event that the Borrower does not accept the opinion of counsel provided by the Buyer with respect to the transfer of Securities pursuant to an exemption from registration, such as Rule 144 or Regulation S, at the Deadline, it will be considered an Event of Default pursuant to Section 3.2 of the Note.
1.6Effect of Certain Events.
(a)Effect of Merger, Consolidation, Etc. At the option of the Holder, the sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower, the effectuation by the Borrower of a transaction or series of related transactions in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Borrower is disposed of, or the consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Borrower with or into any other Person (as defined below) or Persons when the Borrower is not the survivor shall either: (i) be deemed to be an Event of Default (as defined in Article III) pursuant to which the Borrower shall be required to pay to the Holder upon the consummation of and as a condition to such transaction an amount equal to the Default Amount (as defined in Article III) or (ii) be treated pursuant to Section 1.6(b) hereof. “Person” shall mean any individual, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, association, trust or other entity or organization.
(b)Adjustment Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc. If, at any time when this Note is issued and outstanding and prior to conversion of all of the Notes, there shall be any merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, stock split, or other similar event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock of the Borrower shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of the same class or another class or classes of stock or securities of the Borrower or another entity, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Borrower, then the Holder of this Note shall thereafter have the right to receive upon conversion of this Note, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion, such stock, securities or assets which the Holder would have been entitled to receive in such transaction had this Note been converted in full immediately prior to such transaction (without regard to any limitations on conversion set forth herein), and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Note to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustment of the Conversion Price and of the number of shares issuable
8
as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof. The Borrower shall not affect any transaction described in this Section 1.6(b) unless (a) it first gives, to the extent practicable, thirty (30) days prior written notice (but in any event at least fifteen (15) days prior written notice) of the record date of the special meeting of shareholders to approve, or if there is no such record date, the consummation of, such merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar event or sale of assets (during which time the Holder shall be entitled to convert this Note) and (b) the resulting successor or acquiring entity (if not the Borrower) assumes by written instrument the obligations of this Section 1.6(b). The above provisions shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or share exchanges.
(c)Adjustment Due to Distribution. If the Borrower shall declare or make any distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Stock as a dividend, stock repurchase, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including any dividend or distribution to the Borrower’s shareholders in cash or shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock of a subsidiary (i.e., a spin-off)) (a “Distribution”), then the Holder of this Note shall be entitled, upon any conversion of this Note after the date of record for determining shareholders entitled to such Distribution, to receive the amount of such assets which would have been payable to the Holder with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion had such Holder been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to such Distribution.
(d)Purchase Rights. If, at any time when any Notes are issued and outstanding, the Borrower issues any convertible securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property (the “Purchase Rights”) pro rata to the record holders of any class of Common Stock, then the Holder of this Note will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which such Holder could have acquired if such Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note (without regard to any limitations on conversion contained herein) 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.
(e)Notice of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price as a result of the events described in this Section 1.6, the Borrower, at its expense, shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment and prepare and furnish to the Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Borrower shall, upon the written request at any time of the Holder, furnish to such Holder a like certificate setting forth (i) such adjustment or readjustment, (ii) the Conversion Price at the time in effect and (iii) 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 conversion of the Note.
1.7Status as Shareholder. Upon submission of a Notice of Conversion by a Holder, (i) the shares covered thereby (other than the shares, if any, which cannot be issued because their
9
issuance would exceed such Holder’s allocated portion of the Reserved Amount or Maximum Share Amount) shall be deemed converted into shares of Common Stock and (ii) the Holder’s rights as a Holder of such converted portion of this Note shall cease and terminate, excepting only the right to receive certificates for such shares of Common Stock and to any remedies provided herein or otherwise available at law or in equity to such Holder because of a failure by the Borrower to comply with the terms of this Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Holder has not received certificates for all shares of Common Stock prior to the tenth (10th) business day after the expiration of the Deadline with respect to a conversion of any portion of this Note for any reason, then (unless the Holder otherwise elects to retain its status as a holder of Common Stock by so notifying the Borrower) the Holder shall regain the rights of a Holder of this Note with respect to such unconverted portions of this Note and the Borrower shall, as soon as practicable, return such unconverted Note to the Holder or, if the Note has not been surrendered, adjust its records to reflect that such portion of this Note has not been converted. In all cases, the Holder shall retain all of its rights and remedies (including, without limitation, (i) the right to receive Conversion Default Payments pursuant to Section 1.3 to the extent required thereby for such Conversion Default and any subsequent Conversion Default and (ii) the right to have the Conversion Price with respect to subsequent conversions determined in accordance with Section 1.3) for the Borrower’s failure to convert this Note.
1.8Prepayment. The Borrower may prepay the amounts outstanding hereunder by paying an amount equal to the sum of (w) the then outstanding principal amount of this Note plus (x) accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principal amount of this Note plus (y) Default Interest, if any.
Any notice of prepayment hereunder (an “Optional Prepayment Notice”) shall be delivered to the Holder of the Note at its registered addresses by physical mail and shall state: (1) that the Borrower is requesting to prepay the Note, and (2) the date of the requested prepayment which shall be not more than three (3) Trading Days from the date of the Optional Prepayment Notice. On the date fixed for prepayment (the “Optional Prepayment Date”), the Borrower shall make payment of the applicable prepayment amount to or upon the order of the Holder as specified by the Holder in writing to the Borrower.
ARTICLE II. CERTAIN COVENANTS
2.1Distributions on Capital Stock. So long as the Borrower shall have any obligation under this Note, the Borrower shall not without the Holder’s written consent (a) pay, declare or set apart for such payment, any dividend or other distribution (whether in cash, property or other securities) on shares of capital stock other than dividends on shares of Common Stock solely in the form of additional shares of Common Stock or (b) directly or indirectly or through any subsidiary make any other payment or distribution in respect of its capital stock except for distributions pursuant to any shareholders’ rights plan which is approved by a majority of the Borrower’s disinterested directors.
2.2Restriction on Stock Repurchases. So long as the Borrower shall have any obligation under this Note, the Borrower shall not without the Holder’s written consent redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire (whether for cash or in exchange for property or other securities

2.3Most Favored Nations. Beginning on the Issuance Date of the Note and so long as the Borrower shall have any obligation under this Note, the Conversion Price and other terms will be adjusted on a ratchet basis if the Company offers a more favorable term such as Conversion Price, Interest Rate, (whether through a straight discount or in combination with an original issue discount) or other more favorable term to another party.
2.4Borrowings. So long as the Borrower shall have any obligation under this Note, the Borrower shall not, without the Holder’s written consent, create, incur, assume guarantee, endorse, contingently agree to purchase or otherwise become liable upon the obligation of any person, firm, partnership, joint venture or corporation, except by the endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection, or suffer to exist any liability for borrowed money, except (a) borrowings in existence or committed on the date hereof and of which the Borrower has informed Holder in writing prior to the date hereof, (b) indebtedness to trade creditors financial institutions or other lenders incurred in the ordinary course of business or (c) borrowings, the proceeds of which shall be used to repay this Note.

2.9Non-circumvention. The Borrower hereby covenants and agrees that the Borrower will not, by amendment of its Certificate or Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the
11
observance or performance of any of the terms of this Note, and will at all times in good faith carry out all the provisions of this Note and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder.

If the Holder shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Note, including, without limitation, engaging an attorney, then if the Holder prevails in such action, the Holder shall be reimbursed by the Borrower for its attorneys' fees and other costs and expenses incurred in the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.
ARTICLE IV. MISCELLANEOUS
4.1Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver.

4.3Amendments. This Note and any provision hereof may only be amended by an instrument in writing signed by the Borrower and the Holder. The term “Note” and all reference thereto, as used throughout this instrument, shall mean this instrument (and the other Notes issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement) as originally executed, or if later amended or supplemented, then as so amended or supplemented.
4.4Assignability. This Note shall be binding upon the Borrower and its successors and assigns and shall inure to be the benefit of the Holder and its successors and assigns. Neither the Borrower nor the Holder shall assign this Note or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder may assign its rights hereunder to any “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a) of the 1933 Act) in a private transaction from the Holder or to any of its “affiliates”, as that term is defined under the 1934 Act, without the consent of the Borrower. Notwithstanding anything in this Note to the contrary, this Note may be pledged as collateral in connection with a bona fide margin account or other lending arrangement. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that following conversion of a portion of this Note, the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of this Note represented by this Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
4.5Cost of Collection. If default is made in the payment of this Note, the Borrower shall pay the Holder hereof reasonable costs of collection, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.
4.6Governing Law. This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. Any action brought by either party against the other concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be brought only in the state courts of Massachusetts or in the federal courts located in the state of Massachusetts and county or city of Middlesex County, Massachusetts. The parties to this Note hereby irrevocably waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any action instituted hereunder and shall not assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue or based upon forum non conveniens. THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS NOTE OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable attorney's fees and costs. In the event that any provision of this Note or any other agreement delivered in connection herewith is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of any agreement. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any suit, action or
17
proceeding in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
4.7Certain Amounts. Whenever pursuant to this Note the Borrower is required to pay an amount in excess of the outstanding principal amount (or the portion thereof required to be paid at that time) plus accrued and unpaid interest plus Default Interest on such interest, the Borrower and the Holder agree that the actual damages to the Holder from the receipt of cash payment on this Note may be difficult to determine and the amount to be so paid by the Borrower represents stipulated damages and not a penalty and is intended to compensate the Holder in part for loss of the opportunity to convert this Note and to earn a return from the sale of shares of Common Stock acquired upon conversion of this Note at a price in excess of the price paid for such shares pursuant to this Note. The Borrower and the Holder hereby agree that such amount of stipulated damages is not plainly disproportionate to the possible loss to the Holder from the receipt of a cash payment without the opportunity to convert this Note into shares of Common Stock.
4.8Purchase Agreement. By its acceptance of this Note, each party agrees to be bound by the applicable terms of the Purchase Agreement.
4.9Notice of Corporate Events. Except as otherwise provided below, the Holder of this Note shall have no rights as a Holder of Common Stock unless and only to the extent that it converts this Note into Common Stock. The Borrower shall provide the Holder with prior notification of any meeting of the Borrower’s shareholders (and copies of proxy materials and other information sent to shareholders). In the event of any taking by the Borrower of a record of its shareholders for the purpose of determining shareholders who are entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution, any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire (including by way of merger, consolidation, reclassification or recapitalization) any share of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or for the purpose of determining shareholders who are entitled to vote in connection with any proposed sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower or any proposed liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Borrower, the Borrower shall mail a notice to the Holder, at least twenty (20) days prior to the record date specified therein (or thirty (30) days prior to the consummation of the transaction or event, whichever is earlier), of the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, right or other event, and a brief statement regarding the amount and character of such dividend, distribution, right or other event to the extent known at such time. The Borrower shall make a public announcement of any event requiring notification to the Holder hereunder substantially simultaneously with the notification to the Holder in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.9 including, but not limited to, name changes, recapitalizations, etc. as soon as possible under law.
4.10Usury. If it shall be found that any interest or other amount deemed interest due hereunder violates the applicable law governing usury, the applicable provision shall automatically be revised to equal the maximum rate of interest or other amount deemed interest
18
permitted under applicable law. The Borrower covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not seek to claim or take advantage of any law that would prohibit or forgive the Borrower from paying all or a portion of the principal or interest on this Note.
4.11Remedies. The Borrower acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder, by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Borrower acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Note will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Borrower of the provisions of this Note, that the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies at law or in equity, and in addition to the penalties assessable herein, to an injunction or injunctions restraining, preventing or curing any breach of this Note and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. No provision of this Note shall alter or impair the obligation of the Borrower, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, and interest on, this Note at the time, place, and rate, and in the form, herein prescribed.
4.12Severability. In the event that any provision of this Note is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any provision hereof which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof.
4.13Dispute Resolution. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Conversion Price, Conversion Amount, any prepayment amount or Default Amount, Default Sum, Closing or Maturity Date, the closing bid price, or fair market value (as the case may be) or the arithmetic calculation of the Conversion Price or the applicable prepayment amount(s) (as the case may be), the Borrower or the Holder shall submit the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations via facsimile (i) within two (2) Business Days after receipt of the applicable notice giving rise to such dispute to the Borrower or the Holder or (ii) if no notice gave rise to such dispute, at any time after the Holder learned of the circumstances giving rise to such dispute. If the Holder and the Borrower are unable to agree upon such determination or calculation within two (2) Business Days of such disputed determination or arithmetic calculation (as the case may be) being submitted to the Borrower or the Holder, then the Borrower shall, within two (2) Business Days, submit via facsimile (a) the disputed determination of the Conversion Price, the closing bid price, the or fair market value (as the case may be) to an independent, reputable investment bank selected by the Borrower and approved by the Holder or (b) the disputed arithmetic calculation of the Conversion Price, Conversion Amount, any prepayment amount or Default Amount, Default Sum to an independent, outside accountant selected by the Holder that is reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. The Borrower shall cause at its expense the investment bank or the accountant to perform the determinations or calculations and notify the Borrower and the Holder of the results no later than ten (10) Business Days from the time it receives such disputed determinations or calculations. Such investment bank’s or accountant’s determination or calculation shall be binding upon all parties absent demonstrable error.

The Borrower fails to issue shares of Common Stock to the Holder (or announces or threatens in writing that it will not honor its obligation to do so) upon exercise by the Holder of the conversion rights of the Holder in accordance with the terms of this Note (following an Event of Default other than this Section 3.2), fails to transfer or cause its transfer agent to transfer (issue) (electronically or in certificated form) any certificate for shares of Common Stock issued to the Holder upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to this Note as and when required by this Note, the Borrower directs its transfer agent not to transfer or delays, impairs, and/or hinders its transfer agent in transferring (or issuing) (electronically or in certificated form) any certificate for shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to this Note as and when required by this Note, or fails to remove (or directs its transfer agent not to remove or impairs, delays, and/or hinders its transfer agent from removing) any restrictive legend (or to withdraw any stop transfer instructions in respect thereof) on any certificate for any shares of Common Stock issued to the Holder upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to this Note as and when required by this Note (or makes any written announcement, statement or threat that it does not intend to honor the obligations described in this paragraph) and any such failure shall continue uncured (or any written announcement, statement or threat not to honor its obligations shall not be rescinded in writing) for three (3) business days after the Holder shall have delivered a Notice of Conversion. It is an obligation of the Borrower to remain current in its obligations to its transfer agent. It shall be an event of default of this Note, if a conversion of this Note is delayed, hindered or frustrated due to a balance owed by the Borrower to its transfer agent. If at the option of the Holder, the Holder advances any funds to the Borrower’s transfer agent in order to process a conversion, such advanced funds shall be paid by the Borrower to the Holder within forty-eight (48) hours of a demand from the Holder.
3.3Breach of Covenants. The Borrower breaches any material covenant or other material term or condition contained in this Note and any collateral documents including but not limited to the Purchase Agreement and such breach continues for a period of twenty (20) days after written notice thereof to the Borrower from the Holder.
3
3.4Breach of Representations and Warranties. Any representation or warranty of the Borrower made herein or in any agreement, statement or certificate given in writing pursuant hereto or in connection herewith (including, without limitation, the Purchase Agreement), shall be false or misleading in any material respect when made and the breach of which has (or with the passage of time will have) a material adverse effect on the rights of the Holder with respect to this Note or the Purchase Agreement.
3.5Receiver or Trustee. The Borrower or any subsidiary of the Borrower shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver or trustee for it or for a substantial part of its property or business, or such a receiver or trustee shall otherwise be appointed.
3.6Bankruptcy. Bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or liquidation proceedings or other proceedings, voluntary or involuntary, for relief under any bankruptcy law or any law for the relief of debtors shall be instituted by or against the Borrower or any subsidiary of the Borrower.

3.9Liquidation. Any dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of Borrower or any substantial portion of its business.
3.10Cessation of Operations. Any cessation of operations by Borrower or Borrower admits it is otherwise generally unable to pay its debts as such debts become due, provided, however, that any disclosure of the Borrower’s ability to continue as a “going concern” shall not be an admission that the Borrower cannot pay its debts as they become due.
3.11Financial Statement Restatement.The restatement of any financial statements filed by the Borrower with the SEC at any time after 180 days after the Issuance Date for any date or period until this Note is no longer outstanding, if the result of such restatement would, by comparison to the un-restated financial statement, have constituted a material adverse effect on the rights of the Holder with respect to this Note or the Purchase Agreement.
3.12Replacement of Transfer Agent. In the event that the Borrower proposes to replace its transfer agent, the Borrower fails to provide, prior to the effective date of such replacement, a fully executed Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions in a form as initially delivered pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (including but not limited to the provision to irrevocably reserve shares of Common Stock in the Reserved Amount) signed by the successor transfer agent to Borrower and the Borrower.
3.13Cross-Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the other related or companion documents, a breach or default by the Borrower of any covenant or other term or condition contained in any of the Other Agreements, after the passage of all applicable notice and cure or grace periods, shall, at the option of the Holder, be considered a default under this Note and the Other Agreements, in which event the Holder shall be entitled (but in no event required) to
4
apply all rights and remedies of the Holder under the terms of this Note and the Other Agreements by reason of a default under said Other Agreement or hereunder. “Other Agreements” means, collectively, all agreements and instruments between, among or by: (1) the Borrower, and, or for the benefit of, (2) the Holder and any affiliate of the Holder, including, without limitation, promissory notes; provided, however, the term “Other Agreements” shall not include the related or companion documents to this Note. Each of the loan transactions will be cross-defaulted with each other loan transaction and with all other existing and future debt of Borrower to the Holder. Furthermore, notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary or in any of the Other Agreements to the contrary, in the event of default of any Other Agreements and such Other Agreements are convertible into shares of Common Stock, Section 4.6 (d) Adjustment Due to Market Price hereof shall be applied to each such Other Agreement as if such section was included within such Other Agreement and the principal amount due with respect to such Other Agreement shall be adjusted accordingly .
Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, the Note shall become immediately due and payable and the Borrower shall pay to the Holder, in full satisfaction of its obligations hereunder, an amount equal to 150% (“Default Percentage”) times the sum of (w) the then outstanding principal amount of this Note plus (x) accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principal amount of this Note to the date of payment plus (y) Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in clauses (w) and/or (x) plus (z) any amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Article IV hereof (the then outstanding principal amount of this Note to the date of payment plus the amounts referred to in clauses (x), (y) and
(z) shall collectively be known as the “Default Amount”) and all other amounts payable hereunder shall immediately become due and payable, all without demand, presentment or notice, all of which hereby are expressly waived, together with all costs, including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses, of collection, and the Holder shall be entitled to exercise all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that following an Event of Default (other than Section 3.2), a default pursuant to Section 3.2 occurs, the Default Percentage shall be immediately adjusted to 200%.
If the Borrower fails to pay the Default Amount within five (5) business days of written notice that such amount is due and payable, then the Holder shall have the right at any time, to convert the balance owed pursuant to the note including the Default Amount into shares of common stock of the Company as set forth herein.
ARTICLE IV. CONVERSION RIGHTS
4.1Conversion Right. At any time following an Event of Default, the Holder shall have the right, to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid amount of this Note into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, as such Common Stock exists on the Issue Date, or any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified at the conversion price determined as provided herein (a “Conversion”); provided, however, that in no event shall the Holder be entitled to convert any portion of this Note in excess of that portion of this Note upon conversion of which the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the Notes or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other security of the Borrower subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitations contained herein) and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the portion of this Note with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. For purposes of the proviso to
5
the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Regulations 13D-G thereunder, except as otherwise provided in clause (1) of such proviso. The beneficial ownership limitations on conversion as set forth in the section may NOT be waived by the Holder. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing the Conversion Amount (as defined below) by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect on the date specified in the notice of conversion, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B(the “Notice of Conversion”), delivered to the Borrower by the Holder in accordance with Section 4.4 below; provided that the Notice of Conversion is submitted by facsimile or e-mail (or by other means resulting in, or reasonably expected to result in, notice) to the Borrower before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time on such conversion date (the “Conversion Date”); however, if the Notice of Conversion is sent after 6:00pm, New York, New York time the Conversion Date shall be the next business day. The term “Conversion Amount” means, with respect to any conversion of this Note, the sum of (1) the principal amount of this Note to be converted in such conversion plus (2) at the Holder’s option, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such principal amount at the interest rates provided in this Note to the Conversion Date, plus (3) at the Holder’s option, Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (1) and/or (2) plus (4) at the Holder’s option, any amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Sections 4.4 hereof. Limitation shall no longer apply to limit the issuance of shares in conversion of this Note.
The Holder shall be entitled to deduct $1,500.00 from the conversion amount in each Notice of Conversion to cover Holder's deposit fees associated with each Notice of Conversion. Any additional expenses incurred by Holder with respect to the Borrower's transfer agent, for the issuance of the Common Stock into which this Note is convertible into, shall immediately and automatically be added to the balance of the Note at such time as the expenses are incurred by Holder.
4.2Conversion Price. The conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) shall mean 65% multiplied by the lowest Trading Price for the Common Stock during the ten (10) Trading Days prior to the Conversion Date (subject to equitable adjustments by the Borrower relating to the Borrower’s securities or the securities of any subsidiary of the Borrower, combinations, recapitalization, reclassifications, extraordinary distributions and similar events). “Trading Price” means, for any security as of any date, the closing bid price on the OTCQB, OTCQX, Pink Sheets electronic quotation system or applicable trading market (the “OTC”) as reported by a reliable reporting service (“Reporting Service”) designated by the Holder (i.e. Bloomberg) or, if the OTC is not the principal trading market for such security, the closing bid price of such security on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such security is listed or traded or, if no closing bid price of such security is available in any of the foregoing manners, the average of the closing bid prices of any market makers for such security that are listed in the “pink sheets”. If the Trading Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date in the manner provided above, the Trading Price shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by the Borrower and the holders of a majority in interest of the Notes being converted for which the calculation of the Trading Price is required in order to determine the Conversion Price of such Notes. “Trading Day” shall mean any day on which the Common Stock is tradable for any period on the OTC, or on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being traded.
4.3Authorized Shares. The Borrower covenants that during the period that the Note is outstanding, the Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The Borrower is required at all times to have authorized and reserved four times the number of shares that is actually issuable upon full conversion of the Note (based on the Conversion Price of the Note in effect from time to time) (the
6
“Reserved Amount”). The Reserved Amount shall be increased from time to time in accordance with the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. The Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. In addition, if the Borrower shall issue any securities or make any change to its capital structure which would change the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Notes shall be convertible at the then current Conversion Price, the Borrower shall at the same time make proper provision so that thereafter there shall be a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, for conversion of the outstanding Note. The Borrower (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer agent to issue certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Note.
If, at any time the Borrower does not maintain the Reserved Amount it will be considered an Event of Default under this Note.
4.4 | Method of Conversion. |
(a)Mechanics of Conversion. As set forth in Section 4.1 hereof, at any time following an Event of Default, the balance due pursuant to this Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part at any time from time to time after the Issue Date, by (A) submitting to the Borrower a Notice of Conversion (by facsimile, e-mail or other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date prior to 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time) and (B) subject to Section 4.4(b), surrendering this Note at the principal office of the Borrower (upon payment in full of any amounts owed hereunder).
(b)Surrender of Note Upon Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Borrower unless the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note is so converted. The Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the principal amount so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Borrower, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion.
(c)Delivery of Common Stock Upon Conversion. Upon receipt by the Borrower from the Holder of a facsimile transmission or e-mail (or other reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in this Section 4.4, the Borrower shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion within three (3) business days after such receipt (the “Deadline”) (and, solely in the case of conversion of the entire unpaid principal amount hereof, surrender of this Note) in accordance with the terms hereof and the Purchase Agreement. Upon receipt by the Borrower of a Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on this Note shall be reduced to reflect such conversion, and, unless the Borrower defaults on its obligations hereunder, all rights with respect to the portion of this Note being so converted shall forthwith terminate except the right to receive the Common Stock or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such conversion. If the Holder shall have given a Notice of Conversion as provided herein, the Borrower’s obligation to issue and deliver the certificates for Common Stock shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the absence of any action by the
7
Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or any action to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of any other obligation of the Borrower to the holder of record, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder of any obligation to the Borrower, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Borrower to the Holder in connection with such conversion.
(d)Delivery of Common Stock by Electronic Transfer. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon conversion, provided the Borrower is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) program, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions set forth herein, the Borrower shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Common Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder’s Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit and Withdrawal at Custodian (“DWAC”) system.
(e)Failure to Deliver Common Stock Prior to Deadline. Without in any way limiting the Holder’s right to pursue other remedies, including actual damages and/or equitable relief, the parties agree that if delivery of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note is not delivered by the Deadline due to action and/or inaction of the Borrower, the Borrower shall pay to the Holder
$2,000 per day in cash, for each day beyond the Deadline that the Borrower fails to deliver such Common Stock (the “Fail to Deliver Fee”); provided; however that the Fail to Deliver Fee shall not be due if the failure is a result of a third party (i.e., transfer agent; and not the result of any failure to pay such transfer agent) despite the best efforts of the Borrower to effect delivery of such Common Stock. Such cash amount shall be paid to Holder by the fifth day of the month following the month in which it has accrued or, at the option of the Holder (by written notice to the Borrower by the first day of the month following the month in which it has accrued), shall be added to the principal amount of this Note, in which event interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of this Note and such additional principal amount shall be convertible into Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Note. The Borrower agrees that the right to convert is a valuable right to the Holder. The damages resulting from a failure, attempt to frustrate, interference with such conversion right are difficult if not impossible to qualify. Accordingly, the parties acknowledge that the liquidated damages provision contained in this Section 4.4(e) are justified.
4.5Concerning the Shares. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred unless: (i) such shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act or (ii) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have been furnished with an opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration (such as Rule 144 or a successor rule) (“Rule 144”); or (iii) such shares are transferred to an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144) of the Borrower who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the shares only in accordance with this Section 4.5 and who is an Accredited Investor (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).
Any restrictive legend on certificates representing shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note shall be removed and the Borrower shall issue to the Holder a new certificate therefore free of any transfer legend if the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have received an opinion of counsel from Holder’s counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that (i) a public sale or transfer of such Common Stock may be made without registration under the Act, which opinion shall be accepted by the Company so that the sale or transfer is
8
effected; or (ii) in the case of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, such security is registered for sale by the Holder under an effective registration statement filed under the Act; or otherwise may be sold pursuant to an exemption from registration. In the event that the Company does not reasonably accept the opinion of counsel provided by the Holder with respect to the transfer of Securities pursuant to an exemption from registration (such as Rule 144), it will be considered an Event of Default pursuant to this Note.
4.6 | Effect of Certain Events. |
(a)Effect of Merger, Consolidation, Etc. At the option of the Holder, the sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower, the effectuation by the Borrower of a transaction or series of related transactions in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Borrower is disposed of, or the consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Borrower with or into any other Person (as defined below) or Persons when the Borrower is not the survivor shall be deemed to be an Event of Default (as defined in Article III) pursuant to which the Borrower shall be required to pay to the Holder upon the consummation of and as a condition to such transaction an amount equal to the Default Amount (as defined in Article III). “Person” shall mean any individual, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, association, trust or other entity or organization.
(b)Adjustment Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc. If, at any time when this Note is issued and outstanding and prior to conversion of all of the Note, there shall be any merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, or other similar event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock of the Borrower shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of another class or classes of stock or securities of the Borrower or another entity, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Borrower, then the Holder of this Note shall thereafter have the right to receive upon conversion of this Note, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion, such stock, securities or assets which the Holder would have been entitled to receive in such transaction had this Note been converted in full immediately prior to such transaction (without regard to any limitations on conversion set forth herein), and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Note to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustment of the Conversion Price and of the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Note) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof. The Borrower shall not affect any transaction described in this Section 4.6(b) unless (a) it first gives, to the extent practicable, ten (10) days prior written notice (but in any event at least five (5) days prior written notice) of the record date of the special meeting of shareholders to approve, or if there is no such record date, the consummation of, such merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar event or sale of assets (during which time the Holder shall be entitled to convert this Note) and (b) the resulting successor or acquiring entity (if not the Borrower) assumes by written instrument the obligations of this Note. The above provisions shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or share exchanges.
(c)Adjustment Due to Distribution. If the Borrower shall declare or make any distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Stock as a dividend, stock repurchase, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including any dividend or distribution to the Borrower’s shareholders in cash or shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock of a subsidiary (i.e.,
9
a spin-off)) (a “Distribution”), then the Holder of this Note shall be entitled, upon any conversion of this Note after the date of record for determining shareholders entitled to such Distribution, to receive the amount of such assets which would have been payable to the Holder with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion had such Holder been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to such Distribution.

5. Events of Default. Each of the following shall constitute an event of default (“Event of Default”):

(a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 5(a) hereof, the Payee may, by written notice to the Maker, declare this Note to be due immediately and payable, whereupon the unpaid Principal Amount of this Note, and all other amounts payable hereunder, shall become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, anything contained herein or in the documents evidencing the same to the contrary notwithstanding.
(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 5(b) and Section 5(c), the unpaid principal balance of this Note, and all other sums payable with regard to this Note, shall automatically and immediately become due and payable, in all cases without any action on the part of the Payee.
7. Voluntary Conversion.
(a) Conversion. At any time and from time to time, commencing on the date hereof, through the date that is 270 days from the date hereof, the outstanding Principal Amount and any interest accrued thereon under the Note shall be convertible, at the option of the Payee, into that number of fully paid and non-assessable shares (the “Conversion Shares”) of Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share of the Company equal to lower of (1) $5.12 or (2) the quotient (rounded down to the nearest whole share) obtained by dividing (x) the sum of the Principal Amount and any interest accrued thereon by (y) 90% of the lowest daily volume weighted average price (the “VWAP”) of the Common Stock on the primary trading market of the Common Stock during the 3 trading day period immediately prior to the applicable measurement date (or certain other measurements if such price is not applicable) (the “Conversion Price”). The Payee shall effect a conversion of this Note pursuant to this Section 7(a) by delivering to the Company a written notice in the form attached hereto as Annex A (the “Conversion Notice”).
For example, assuming no accrued dividends, if the VWAP was $10.00 at the particular conversion date, the conversion price would be $5.12).
For example, assuming no accrued dividends, if the VWAP was $5.00. at the particular conversion date, the conversion price would be $4.50).
As to any fraction of a share of Common Stock which the Note holder would otherwise be entitled to acquire upon such conversion, the Company will either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined in good faith by the Board, or round up to the next whole share of Common Stock.
(b) Conversion Procedure. Not later than three (3) business days after the Company’s receipt of the Conversion Notice (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Payee a certificate or certificates representing the Conversion Shares, which, on or after the date on which the resale of such Conversion Shares are covered by and are being sold pursuant to an effective Registration Statement or such Conversion Shares are eligible to be sold under Rule 144 without the need for current public information and the Company has received an opinion of counsel to such effect acceptable to the Company (which opinion the Company will be responsible for obtaining at its own cost) shall be free of restrictive legends and trading restrictions (other than those which may then be required by federal securities laws) representing the number of Conversion Shares being acquired or being sold, as the case may be, upon the conversion of this Note. All certificate or certificates required to be delivered by the Company under this Section 7(b) shall be delivered electronically through DTC or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions, unless the Company or its Transfer Agent does not have an account with DTC and/or is not participating in the DTC/FAST System, in which case the Company shall issue and deliver to the address as specified in such Notice of Conversion a certificate (or
certificates), registered in the name of the Payee or its designee, for the number of Conversion Shares to which the Payee shall be entitled. If the Conversion Shares are not being sold pursuant to an effective Registration Statement or if the Conversion Date is prior to the date on which such Conversion Shares are eligible to be sold under Rule 144 without the need for current public information, the Conversion Shares shall bear a restrictive legend in the following form, as appropriate:
“THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT.”
(c) Reservation of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of this Note such number of Conversion Shares as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of the Note; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of the entire outstanding Principal Amount of this Note, without limitation of such other remedies as shall be available to the Payee, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes.
(d) 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 that the Payee 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.
8. Covenants of the Maker. The Maker covenants that any Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Note, when so issued, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof.

The Maker and all endorsers and guarantors of, and sureties for, this Note waive presentment for payment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest, and notice of protest with regard to the Note, all errors, defects and imperfections in any proceedings instituted by the Payee under the terms of this Note, and all benefits that might accrue to the Maker by virtue of any present or future laws exempting any property, real or personal, or any part of the proceeds arising from any sale of any such property, from attachment, levy or sale under execution, or providing for any stay of execution, exemption from civil process, or extension of time for payment; and the Maker agrees that any real estate that may be levied upon pursuant to a judgment obtained by virtue hereof, on any writ of execution issued hereon, may be sold upon any such writ in whole or in part in any order desired by the Payee.
10. Unconditional Liability. The Maker hereby waives all notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default, or enforcement of the payment of this Note, and agrees that its liability shall be unconditional, without regard to the liability of any other party, and shall not be affected in any manner by any indulgence, extension of time, renewal, waiver or modification granted or consented to by the Payee, and consents to any and all extensions of time, renewals, waivers, or modifications that may be granted by the Payee with respect to the payment or other provisions of this Note, and agrees that additional makers, endorsers, guarantors, or sureties may become parties hereto without notice to the Maker or affecting the Maker’s liability hereunder.

13. Severability. Any provision contained in this Note which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
15. Amendment; Waiver. Any amendment hereto or waiver of any provision hereof may be made with, and only with, the written consent of the Maker and the Payee.
16. Successors and Assigns. Subject to the restrictions on transfer in Section 18 and Section 19 the rights and obligations of the Maker and the Payee hereunder shall be binding upon and benefit the successors, assigns, heirs, administrators and transferees of any party hereto (by operation of law or otherwise) with the prior written consent of the other party hereto and any attempted assignment without the required consent shall be void.
17. Transfer of this Note or Securities Issuable on Conversion. With respect to any sale or other disposition of this Note or Conversion Shares, the Payee shall give written notice to the Maker prior thereto, describing briefly the manner thereof, together with a written opinion (unless waived by the Maker) reasonably satisfactory to the Maker in form and substance from counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Maker to the effect that such sale or other distribution may be effected without registration or qualification under any U.S. federal or state law then in effect. Upon receiving such written notice and reasonably satisfactory opinion and/or certificate (unless waived by the Maker), or other evidence, and such written acknowledgement, the Maker, as promptly as practicable, shall notify the Payee that the Payee may sell or otherwise dispose of this Note or Conversion Securities, all in accordance with the terms of the note delivered to the Maker. If a determination has been made pursuant to this Section 17 that the opinion of counsel for the Payee or other evidence is not reasonably satisfactory to the Maker, the Maker shall so notify the Payee promptly after such determination has been made. Any Note thus transferred shall bear a legend as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to ensure compliance with the Securities Act, unless in the opinion of counsel for the Maker such legend is not required in order to ensure compliance with the Securities Act. The Maker may issue stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent in connection with such restrictions. Subject to the foregoing, transfers of this Note shall be registered upon registration on the books maintained for such purpose by or on behalf of the Maker. Prior to presentation of this Note for registration of transfer, the Maker shall treat the registered holder hereof as the owner and holder of this Note for the purpose of receiving all payments of principal hereon and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not this Note shall be overdue and the Maker shall not be affected by notice to the contrary.
18. Acknowledgment.

All payments shall be made at such address as the Holder shall hereafter give to the Borrower by written notice made in accordance with the provisions of this Note. Each capitalized term used herein, and not otherwise defined, shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated the date hereof, pursuant to which this Note was originally issued (the “Purchase Agreement”).
This Note is free from all taxes, liens, claims and encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof and shall not be subject to preemptive rights or other similar rights of shareholders of the Borrower and will not impose personal liability upon the holder thereof.
The following terms shall apply to this Note:

So long as the Borrower shall have any obligation under this Note, the Borrower shall not, without the Holder’s written consent, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any significant portion of its assets outside the ordinary course of business.

ARTICLE III. EVENTS OF DEFAULT
If any of the following events of default (each, an “Event of Default”) shall occur:
3.1Failure to Pay Principal and Interest. The Borrower fails to pay the principal hereof or interest thereon when due on this Note, whether at maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise and such breach continues for a period of five (5) days after written notice from the Holder.
3.2Conversion and the Shares. The Borrower fails to issue shares of Common Stock to the Holder (or announces or threatens in writing that it will not honor its obligation to do so) upon exercise by the Holder of the conversion rights of the Holder in accordance with the terms of this Note (following an Event of Default other than this Section 3.2), fails to transfer or cause its transfer agent to transfer (issue) (electronically or in certificated form) any certificate for shares of Common Stock issued to the Holder upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to this Note as and when required by this Note, the Borrower directs its transfer agent not to transfer or delays, impairs, and/or hinders its transfer agent in transferring (or issuing) (electronically or in certificated form) any certificate for shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to this Note as and when required by this Note, or fails to remove (or directs its transfer agent not to remove or impairs, delays, and/or hinders its transfer agent from removing) any restrictive legend (or to withdraw any stop transfer instructions in respect thereof) on any certificate for any shares of Common Stock issued to the Holder upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to this Note as and when required by this Note (or makes any written announcement, statement or threat that it does not intend to honor the obligations described in this paragraph) and any such failure shall continue uncured (or any written announcement, statement or threat not to honor its obligations shall not be rescinded in writing) for three (3) business days after the Holder shall have delivered a Notice of Conversion. It is an obligation of the Borrower to remain current in its obligations to its transfer agent. It shall be an event of default of this Note, if a conversion of this Note is delayed, hindered or frustrated due to a balance owed by the Borrower to its transfer agent. If at the option of the Holder, the Holder advances any funds to the Borrower’s transfer agent in order to process a conversion, such advanced funds shall be paid by the Borrower to the Holder within forty-eight (48) hours of a demand from the Holder.
3.3Breach of Covenants. The Borrower breaches any material covenant or other material term or condition contained in this Note and any collateral documents including but not limited to the Purchase Agreement and such breach continues for a period of twenty (20) days after written notice thereof to the Borrower from the Holder.
3
3.4Breach of Representations and Warranties. Any representation or warranty of the Borrower made herein or in any agreement, statement or certificate given in writing pursuant hereto or in connection herewith (including, without limitation, the Purchase Agreement), shall be false or misleading in any material respect when made and the breach of which has (or with the passage of time will have) a material adverse effect on the rights of the Holder with respect to this Note or the Purchase Agreement.
3.5Receiver or Trustee. The Borrower or any subsidiary of the Borrower shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver or trustee for it or for a substantial part of its property or business, or such a receiver or trustee shall otherwise be appointed.

3.10Cessation of Operations. Any cessation of operations by Borrower or Borrower admits it is otherwise generally unable to pay its debts as such debts become due, provided, however, that any disclosure of the Borrower’s ability to continue as a “going concern” shall not be an admission that the Borrower cannot pay its debts as they become due.
3.11Financial Statement Restatement. The restatement of any financial statements filed by the Borrower with the SEC at any time after 180 days after the Issuance Date for any date or period until this Note is no longer outstanding, if the result of such restatement would, by comparison to the un-restated financial statement, have constituted a material adverse effect on the rights of the Holder with respect to this Note or the Purchase Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the other related or companion documents, a breach or default by the Borrower of any covenant or other term or condition contained in any of the Other Agreements, after the passage of all applicable notice and cure or grace periods, shall, at the option of the Holder, be considered a default under this Note and the Other Agreements, in which event the Holder shall be entitled (but in no event required) to
4
apply all rights and remedies of the Holder under the terms of this Note and the Other Agreements by reason of a default under said Other Agreement or hereunder. “Other Agreements” means, collectively, all agreements and instruments between, among or by: (1) the Borrower, and, or for the benefit of, (2) the Holder and any affiliate of the Holder, including, without limitation, promissory notes; provided, however, the term “Other Agreements” shall not include the related or companion documents to this Note. Each of the loan transactions will be cross-defaulted with each other loan transaction and with all other existing and future debt of Borrower to the Holder. Furthermore, notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary or in any of the Other Agreements to the contrary, in the event of default of any Other Agreements and such Other Agreements are convertible into shares of Common Stock, Section 4.6 (d) Adjustment Due to Market Price hereof shall be applied to each such Other Agreement as if such section was included within such Other Agreement and the principal amount due with respect to such Other Agreement shall be adjusted accordingly .
Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, the Note shall become immediately due and payable and the Borrower shall pay to the Holder, in full satisfaction of its obligations hereunder, an amount equal to 150% (“Default Percentage”) times the sum of (w) the then outstanding principal amount of this Note plus (x) accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principal amount of this Note to the date of payment plus (y) Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in clauses (w) and/or (x) plus (z) any amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Article IV hereof (the then outstanding principal amount of this Note to the date of payment plus the amounts referred to in clauses (x), (y) and (z) shall collectively be known as the “Default Amount”) and all other amounts payable hereunder shall immediately become due and payable, all without demand, presentment or notice, all of which hereby are expressly waived, together with all costs, including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses, of collection, and the Holder shall be entitled to exercise all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that following an Event of Default (other than Section 3.2), a default pursuant to Section 3.2 occurs, the Default Percentage shall be immediately adjusted to 200%.
If the Borrower fails to pay the Default Amount within five (5) business days of written notice that such amount is due and payable, then the Holder shall have the right at any time, to convert the balance owed pursuant to the note including the Default Amount into shares of common stock of the Company as set forth herein.
ARTICLE IV. CONVERSION RIGHTS
4.1 Conversion Right. Following an Event of Default, and provided that at least one hundred eighty (180) days have elapsed since the date of this Note, the Holder shall have the right to convert all or any portion of the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of this Note into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, as such Common Stock exists on the Issue Date, or any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified at the conversion price determined as provided herein (a “Conversion”); provided, however, that in no event shall the Holder be entitled to convert any portion of this Note in excess of that portion of this Note upon conversion of which the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the Notes or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other security of the Borrower subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitations contained herein) and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the portion of this Note with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its
5
affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. For purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Regulations 13D-G thereunder, except as otherwise provided in clause (1) of such proviso. The beneficial ownership limitations on conversion as set forth in the section may NOT be waived by the Holder. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing the Conversion Amount (as defined below) by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect on the date specified in the notice of conversion, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B(the “Notice of Conversion”), delivered to the Borrower by the Holder in accordance with Section 4.4 below; provided that the Notice of Conversion is submitted by facsimile or e-mail (or by other means resulting in, or reasonably expected to result in, notice) to the Borrower before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time on such conversion date (the “Conversion Date”); however, if the Notice of Conversion is sent after 6:00pm, New York, New York time the Conversion Date shall be the next business day. The term “Conversion Amount” means, with respect to any conversion of this Note, the sum of (1) the principal amount of this Note to be converted in such conversion plus (2) at the Holder’s option, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such principal amount at the interest rates provided in this Note to the Conversion Date, plus (3) at the Holder’s option, Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (1) and/or (2) plus (4) at the Holder’s option, any amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Sections 4.4 hereof. Limitation shall no longer apply to limit the issuance of shares in conversion of this Note.
The Holder shall be entitled to deduct $1,500.00 from the conversion amount in each Notice of Conversion to cover Holder’s deposit fees associated with each Notice of Conversion. Any additional expenses incurred by Holder with respect to the Borrower’s transfer agent, for the issuance of the Common Stock into which this Note is convertible into, shall immediately and automatically be added to the balance of the Note at such time as the expenses are incurred by Holder.
4.2Conversion Price. The conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) shall mean 65% multiplied by the lowest Trading Price for the Common Stock during the ten (10) Trading Days prior to the Conversion Date (subject to equitable adjustments by the Borrower relating to the Borrower’s securities or the securities of any subsidiary of the Borrower, combinations, recapitalization, reclassifications, extraordinary distributions and similar events). “Trading Price” means, for any security as of any date, the closing bid price on the OTCQB, OTCQX, Pink Sheets electronic quotation system or applicable trading market (the “OTC”) as reported by a reliable reporting service (“Reporting Service”) designated by the Holder (i.e. Bloomberg) or, if the OTC is not the principal trading market for such security, the closing bid price of such security on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such security is listed or traded or, if no closing bid price of such security is available in any of the foregoing manners, the average of the closing bid prices of any market makers for such security that are listed in the “pink sheets”. If the Trading Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date in the manner provided above, the Trading Price shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by the Borrower and the holders of a majority in interest of the Notes being converted for which the calculation of the Trading Price is required in order to determine the Conversion Price of such Notes. “Trading Day” shall mean any day on which the Common Stock is tradable for any period on the OTC, or on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being traded.
4.3Authorized Shares. The Borrower covenants that during the period that the Note is outstanding, the Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The Borrower is required at all times to have authorized and reserved four times the number of shares that is actually issuable upon full
6
conversion of the Note (based on the Conversion Price of the Note in effect from time to time) (the “Reserved Amount”). The Reserved Amount shall be increased from time to time in accordance with the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. The Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. In addition, if the Borrower shall issue any securities or make any change to its capital structure which would change the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Notes shall be convertible at the then current Conversion Price, the Borrower shall at the same time make proper provision so that thereafter there shall be a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, for conversion of the outstanding Note. The Borrower (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer agent to issue certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Note.
If, at any time the Borrower does not maintain the Reserved Amount it will be considered an Event of Default under this Note.
4.4 | Method of Conversion. |
(a)Mechanics of Conversion. As set forth in Section 4.1 hereof, at any time following an Event of Default, the balance due pursuant to this Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part at any time from time to time after the Issue Date, by (A) submitting to the Borrower a Notice of Conversion (by facsimile, e-mail or other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date prior to 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time) and (B) subject to Section 4.4(b), surrendering this Note at the principal office of the Borrower (upon payment in full of any amounts owed hereunder).
(b)Surrender of Note Upon Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Borrower unless the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note is so converted. The Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the principal amount so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Borrower, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion.
(c)Delivery of Common Stock Upon Conversion. Upon receipt by the Borrower from the Holder of a facsimile transmission or e-mail (or other reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in this Section 4.4, the Borrower shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion within three (3) business days after such receipt (the “Deadline”) (and, solely in the case of conversion of the entire unpaid principal amount hereof, surrender of this Note) in accordance with the terms hereof and the Purchase Agreement. Upon receipt by the Borrower of a Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on this Note shall be reduced to reflect such conversion, and, unless the Borrower defaults on its obligations hereunder, all rights with respect to the portion of this Note being so converted shall forthwith terminate except the right to receive the Common Stock or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such conversion. If the Holder shall have given a Notice of Conversion as provided herein, the Borrower’s obligation to issue and deliver the certificates for
7
Common Stock shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the absence of any action by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or any action to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of any other obligation of the Borrower to the holder of record, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder of any obligation to the Borrower, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Borrower to the Holder in connection with such conversion.
(d)Delivery of Common Stock by Electronic Transfer. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon conversion, provided the Borrower is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) program, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions set forth herein, the Borrower shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Common Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder’s Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit and Withdrawal at Custodian (“DWAC”) system.
(e)Failure to Deliver Common Stock Prior to Deadline. Without in any way limiting the Holder’s right to pursue other remedies, including actual damages and/or equitable relief, the parties agree that if delivery of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note is not delivered by the Deadline due to action and/or inaction of the Borrower, the Borrower shall pay to the Holder $2,000 per day in cash, for each day beyond the Deadline that the Borrower fails to deliver such Common Stock (the “Fail to Deliver Fee”); provided; however that the Fail to Deliver Fee shall not be due if the failure is a result of a third party (i.e., transfer agent; and not the result of any failure to pay such transfer agent) despite the best efforts of the Borrower to effect delivery of such Common Stock. Such cash amount shall be paid to Holder by the fifth day of the month following the month in which it has accrued or, at the option of the Holder (by written notice to the Borrower by the first day of the month following the month in which it has accrued), shall be added to the principal amount of this Note, in which event interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of this Note and such additional principal amount shall be convertible into Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Note. The Borrower agrees that the right to convert is a valuable right to the Holder. The damages resulting from a failure, attempt to frustrate, interference with such conversion right are difficult if not impossible to qualify. Accordingly, the parties acknowledge that the liquidated damages provision contained in this Section 4.4(e) are justified.
4.5 Concerning the Shares. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred unless: (i) such shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act or (ii) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have been furnished with an opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration (such as Rule 144 or a successor rule) (“Rule 144”); or (iii) such shares are transferred to an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144) of the Borrower who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the shares only in accordance with this Section 4.5 and who is an Accredited Investor (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).
Any restrictive legend on certificates representing shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note shall be removed and the Borrower shall issue to the Holder a new certificate therefore free of any transfer legend if the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have received an opinion of counsel from Holder’s counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that (i) a public sale or transfer of such Common Stock may be made without
8
registration under the Act, which opinion shall be accepted by the Company so that the sale or transfer is effected; or (ii) in the case of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, such security is registered for sale by the Holder under an effective registration statement filed under the Act; or otherwise may be sold pursuant to an exemption from registration. In the event that the Company does not reasonably accept the opinion of counsel provided by the Holder with respect to the transfer of Securities pursuant to an exemption from registration (such as Rule 144), it will be considered an Event of Default pursuant to this Note.
4.6 | Effect of Certain Events. |
(a)Effect of Merger, Consolidation, Etc. At the option of the Holder, the sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower, the effectuation by the Borrower of a transaction or series of related transactions in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Borrower is disposed of, or the consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Borrower with or into any other Person (as defined below) or Persons when the Borrower is not the survivor shall be deemed to be an Event of Default (as defined in Article III) pursuant to which the Borrower shall be required to pay to the Holder upon the consummation of and as a condition to such transaction an amount equal to the Default Amount (as defined in Article III). “Person” shall mean any individual, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, association, trust or other entity or organization.
(b)Adjustment Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc. If, at any time when this Note is issued and outstanding and prior to conversion of all of the Note, there shall be any merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, or other similar event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock of the Borrower shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of another class or classes of stock or securities of the Borrower or another entity, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Borrower, then the Holder of this Note shall thereafter have the right to receive upon conversion of this Note, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion, such stock, securities or assets which the Holder would have been entitled to receive in such transaction had this Note been converted in full immediately prior to such transaction (without regard to any limitations on conversion set forth herein), and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Note to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustment of the Conversion Price and of the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Note) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof. The Borrower shall not affect any transaction described in this Section 4.6(b) unless (a) it first gives, to the extent practicable, ten (10) days prior written notice (but in any event at least five (5) days prior written notice) of the record date of the special meeting of shareholders to approve, or if there is no such record date, the consummation of, such merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar event or sale of assets (during which time the Holder shall be entitled to convert this Note) and (b) the resulting successor or acquiring entity (if not the Borrower) assumes by written instrument the obligations of this Note. The above provisions shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or share exchanges.
(c)Adjustment Due to Distribution. If the Borrower shall declare or make any distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Stock as a dividend, stock repurchase, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including any dividend or distribution to the
9
Borrower’s shareholders in cash or shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock of a subsidiary (i.e., a spin-off)) (a “Distribution”), then the Holder of this Note shall be entitled, upon any conversion of this Note after the date of record for determining shareholders entitled to such Distribution, to receive the amount of such assets which would have been payable to the Holder with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion had such Holder been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to such Distribution.

PROMISSORY NOTE
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, ConnectM Technology Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter called the “Borrower” or the “Company”), hereby promises to pay to the order of LABRYS FUND II, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, or registered assigns (the “Holder”), in the form of lawful money of the United States of America, the principal sum of $227,150.00 (the “Principal Amount”) (subject to adjustment herein), which includes the purchase price of $206,500.00 plus an original issue discount in the amount of $20,650.00 (the “OID”), and to pay a one-time interest charge on the Principal Amount hereof at the rate of ten percent (10%) (the “Interest Rate”) (which is equal to $22,715.00 and shall be guaranteed and earned in full as of the date hereof (the “Issue Date”)), when such amounts become due and payable, whether at maturity or upon acceleration or by prepayment or otherwise, as further provided herein. The maturity date shall be twelve (12) months from the Issue Date (the “Maturity Date”), and is the date upon which the Principal Amount (which includes the OID) and any accrued and unpaid interest and other fees, shall be due and payable (in addition to all payment obligations under Section 4.14 of this Note).
This Note may not be prepaid or repaid in whole or in part except as otherwise explicitly set forth herein.
Any Principal Amount or interest on this Note which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of the lesser of (i) twenty-two percent (22%) per annum and (ii) the maximum amount permitted by law from the due date thereof until the same is paid (“Default Interest”). Interest and Default Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed.
All payments due hereunder (to the extent not converted into shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of the Borrower (the “Common Stock”) in accordance with the terms hereof) shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America. All payments shall be made at such address as the Holder shall hereafter give to the Borrower by written notice made in accordance with the provisions of this Note. Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Note is due on any day which is not a business day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day which is a business day.
Each capitalized term used herein, and not otherwise defined, shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of the Issue Date, pursuant to which this Note was originally issued (the “Purchase Agreement”). As used in this Note, the term “business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banks in the city of New York, New York are authorized or required by law or executive order to remain closed. As used herein, the term “Trading Day” means any day that shares of Common Stock are listed for trading or quotation on the Principal Market (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), provided, however, that if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted on any Principal Market, then any calendar day.
This Note is free from all taxes, liens, claims and encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof and shall not be subject to preemptive rights or other similar rights of shareholders of the Borrower and will not impose personal liability upon the holder thereof.
The following terms shall also apply to this Note:
1
ARTICLE I. CONVERSION RIGHTS
1.1Conversion Right. The Holder shall have the right, on any calendar day, at any time on or following the earlier of (i) the date that an Event of Default (as defined in this Note) occurs under this Note, (ii) the date that the Borrower fails to pay any Amortization Payment (as defined in this Note) when due as provided in Section 4.14 of this Note, or (iii) the date that is one hundred eighty (180) calendar days after the Issue Date, to convert all or any portion of the then outstanding and unpaid Principal Amount and interest (including any Default Interest) into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, as such Common Stock exists on the Issue Date, or any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified, at the Conversion Price (as defined below) determined as provided herein (a “Conversion”), by submitting to the Borrower or Borrower’s transfer agent a Notice of Conversion (as defined in this Note) by facsimile, e-mail or other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date (as defined in this Note) prior to 11:59 p.m., New York, New York time; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Note, pursuant to Section 1 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 (the “Affiliates”), and any other Persons (as defined below) 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 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 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 1.1, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”) and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 1.1, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the 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 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 the 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 at the time of the respective calculation hereunder, provided, however, that the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% by delivering written notice of such to the Company, with such increase or decrease not effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after delivery of such written notice. “Person” and “Persons” means an individual, a limited liability company, a partnership, a joint venture, a corporation, a trust, an unincorporated organization, any other entity and any governmental entity or any department or agency thereof. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Note. The number of Conversion Shares to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing the Conversion Amount (as defined below) by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect on the date specified in the notice of conversion, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Notice of Conversion”), delivered to the Borrower or Borrower’s transfer agent by the Holder in accordance with the terms of this Note; provided that the Notice of Conversion is submitted by facsimile or e-mail (or by other means resulting in, or reasonably expected to result in, notice) to the Borrower or Borrower’s transfer agent before 11:59 p.m., New York, New York time on such conversion date (the “Conversion Date”). The term “Conversion Amount” means, with respect to any conversion of this Note, the sum of (1) the Principal Amount of this Note to be converted in such conversion plus (2) at the Holder’s option, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such Principal Amount at the Interest Rate to the Conversion Date, plus (3) at the Holder’s option, Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (1) and/or (2).
2
1.2Conversion Price.
(a)Calculation of Conversion Price. The per share conversion price into which Principal Amount and interest (including any Default Interest) under this Note shall be convertible into shares of Common Stock hereunder as further described in this Note (the “Conversion Price”) shall equal the Market Price (as defined in this Note), subject to adjustment as provided in this Note. “Market Price” shall mean 75% of the lowest closing bid price of the Common Stock on the Principal Market during the fifteen (15) Trading Day period immediately preceding the respective Conversion Date. If at any time the Conversion Price as determined hereunder for any conversion would be less than the par value of the Common Stock, then at the sole discretion of the Holder, the Conversion Price hereunder may equal such par value for such conversion and the Conversion Amount for such conversion may be increased to include Additional Principal, where “Additional Principal” means such additional amount to be added to the Conversion Amount to the extent necessary to cause the number of conversion shares issuable upon such conversion to equal the same number of conversion shares as would have been issued had the Conversion Price not been adjusted by the Holder to the par value price. Holder shall be entitled to deduct $1,750.00 from the conversion amount in each Notice of Conversion to cover Holder’s fees associated with each Notice of Conversion. All such Conversion Price determinations are to be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, rights offerings, reclassification or similar transaction that proportionately decreases or increases the Common Stock. 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 shares of Common Stock on shares of Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalents, (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (iv) issues, in the event of a reclassification of shares of the 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 the immediately preceding sentence shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders 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. “Common Stock Equivalents” means any securities of the Company or the Company’s Subsidiaries (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) 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)Voluntary Adjustment By Company. Subject to the rules and regulations of the Principal Market, the Company may at any time while this Note is outstanding, with the prior written consent of the Holder, reduce the then applicable Conversion Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder shall not be required to effectuate such conversion in the event of any reduction in Conversion Price by the Company.
1.3Authorized and Reserved Shares. The Borrower covenants that at all times beginning on the Issue Date and continuing until the Note is extinguished in the entirety, the Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance of a number of Conversion Shares equal to the greater of: (a) 500,000 shares of Common Stock or (b) the sum of (i) the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon the full conversion of this Note at a conversion price equal to the Conversion Price (assuming no payment of Principal Amount or interest) multiplied by (ii) three (3) (the “Reserved Amount”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Reserved Amount shall be required to be reserved by the Borrower pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence even if the Note is not yet convertible into Common Stock by the Holder under Section 1.1 of this Note. The Borrower represents that upon issuance, the Conversion Shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Borrower (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer agent to issue certificates for the Conversion Shares or instructions to have the Conversion Shares issued as contemplated by Section 1.4(e) hereof, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates or cause the Company to electronically issue shares of Common Stock to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Conversion Shares or cause the Conversion Shares to be issued as contemplated by Section 1.4(e) hereof in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Note.
1.4Method of Conversion.
(a)Surrender of Note Upon Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically
3
surrender this Note to the Borrower unless the entire unpaid Principal Amount is so converted. The Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the Principal Amount so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Borrower, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, such records of the Holder shall, prima facie, be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error.
(b)Payment of Taxes. The Borrower shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of shares of Common Stock or other securities or property on conversion of this Note in a name other than that of the Holder (or in street name), and the Borrower shall not be required to issue or deliver any such shares or other securities or property unless and until the person or persons (other than the Holder or the custodian in whose street name such shares are to be held for the Holder’s account) requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Borrower the amount of any such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Borrower that such tax has been paid.
(c)Delivery of Common Stock Upon Conversion. Upon receipt by the Borrower or Borrower’s transfer agent from the Holder of a facsimile transmission or e-mail (or other reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in this Section 1.4, the Borrower shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder certificates for the Conversion Shares (or cause the electronic delivery of the Conversion Shares as contemplated by Section 1.4(e) hereof) within one (1) Trading Day after such receipt (the “Deadline”) (and, solely in the case of conversion of the entire unpaid Principal Amount and interest (including any Default Interest) under this Note, surrender of this Note). If the Company shall fail for any reason or for no reason to issue to the Holder on or prior to the Deadline a certificate for the number of Conversion Shares or to which the Holder is entitled hereunder and register such Conversion Shares on the Company’s share register or to credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC (as defined below) for such number of Conversion Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s conversion of this Note (a “Conversion Failure”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, (i) the Company shall pay in cash to the Holder on each day after the Deadline and during such Conversion Failure an amount equal to 2.0% of the product of (A) the sum of the number of Conversion Shares not issued to the Holder on or prior to the Deadline and to which the Holder is entitled and (B) the closing sale price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the last possible date which the Company could have issued such Conversion Shares to the Holder without violating this Section 1.4(c); and (ii) the Holder, upon written notice to the Company, may void all or any portion of such Notice of Conversion; provided that the voiding of all or any portion of a Notice of Conversion shall not affect the Company’s obligations to make any payments which have accrued prior to the date of such notice. In addition to the foregoing, if on or prior to the Deadline the Company shall fail to issue and deliver a certificate to the Holder and register such Conversion Shares on the Company’s share register or credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for the number of Conversion Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder or pursuant to the Company’s obligation pursuant to clause (ii) below, and if on or after such Trading Day the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company, then the Company shall, within two (2) Trading Days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other reasonable and customary out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such Conversion Shares) or credit such Holder’s balance account with DTC for such Conversion Shares shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such Conversion Shares or credit such Holder’s balance account with DTC and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Common Stock, times (B) the closing sales price of the Common Stock on the date of exercise. Nothing shall limit the 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 the Conversion Shares (or to electronically deliver such Conversion Shares) upon the conversion of this Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
(d)Obligation of Borrower to Deliver Common Stock. At the time that the Holder submits the Notice of Conversion to the Borrower or Borrower’s transfer agent, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Conversion Shares issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding Principal Amount and the amount of accrued and unpaid interest (including any Default Interest) under this Note shall be reduced to reflect such conversion, and, unless the Borrower defaults on its obligations under this Article I, all rights with respect to the
4
portion of this Note being so converted shall forthwith terminate except the right to receive the Common Stock or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such conversion. If the Holder shall have given a Notice of Conversion as provided herein, the Borrower’s obligation to issue and deliver the certificates for the Conversion Shares (or cause the electronic delivery of the Conversion Shares as contemplated by Section 1.4(e) hereof) shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the absence of any action by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or any action to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of any other obligation of the Borrower to the holder of record, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder of any obligation to the Borrower, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Borrower to the Holder in connection with such conversion. The Conversion Date specified in the Notice of Conversion shall be the Conversion Date so long as the Notice of Conversion is sent to the Borrower or Borrower’s transfer agent before 11:59 p.m., New York, New York time, on such date.
(e)Delivery of Conversion Shares by Electronic Transfer. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion hereof, provided the Borrower is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer or Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian programs, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions contained in Section 1.1 and in this Section 1.4, the Borrower shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion hereof to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder’s Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system.
1.5Concerning the Shares. The Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred unless (i) such shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act or (ii) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have been furnished with an opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be the Legal Counsel Opinion (as defined in the Purchase Agreement)) to the effect that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration or (iii) such shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144, Rule 144A, Regulation S, or other applicable exemption, or (iv) such shares are transferred to an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144) of the Borrower who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the shares only in accordance with this Section 1.5 and who is an Accredited Investor (as defined in the Purchase Agreement). Except as otherwise provided in the Purchase Agreement (and subject to the removal provisions set forth below), until such time as the Conversion Shares have been registered under the 1933 Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144, Rule 144A, Regulation S, or other applicable exemption without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, each certificate for the Conversion Shares that has not been so included in an effective registration statement or that has not been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption that permits removal of the legend, shall bear a legend substantially in the following form, as appropriate:
“NEITHER THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE EXERCISABLE HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH MAY BE THE LEGAL COUNSEL OPINION (AS DEFINED IN THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT)), IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144, RULE 144A, REGULATION S UNDER SAID ACT, OR OTHER APPLICABLE EXEMPTION. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.”
The legend set forth above shall be removed and the Company shall issue to the Holder a certificate for the applicable Conversion Shares without such legend upon which it is stamped or (as requested by the Holder) issue the applicable Conversion Shares by electronic delivery by crediting the account of such holder’s broker with DTC, if, unless otherwise required by applicable state securities laws: (a) such Conversion Shares are registered for sale under an effective registration statement filed under the 1933 Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144, Rule 144A,
5
Regulation S, or other applicable exemption without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, or (b) the Company or the Holder provides the Legal Counsel Opinion (as contemplated by and in accordance with Section 4(m) of the Purchase Agreement) to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Conversion Shares may be made without registration under the 1933 Act, which opinion shall be accepted by the Company so that the sale or transfer is effected. The Company shall be responsible for the fees of its transfer agent and all DTC fees associated with any such issuance. The Holder agrees to sell all Conversion Shares, including those represented by a certificate(s) from which the legend has been removed, in compliance with applicable prospectus delivery requirements, if any. In the event that the Company does not accept the opinion of counsel provided by the Holder with respect to the transfer of Conversion Shares pursuant to an exemption from registration, such as Rule 144, Rule 144A, Regulation S, or other applicable exemption, at the Deadline, notwithstanding that the conditions of Rule 144, Rule 144A, Regulation S, or other applicable exemption, as applicable, have been met, it will be considered an Event of Default under this Note.
1.6Effect of Certain Events.
(a)Effect of Merger, Consolidation, Etc. At the option of the Holder, the sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower, or the consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Borrower with or into any other Person (as defined below) or Persons when the Borrower is not the survivor shall either: (i) be deemed to be an Event of Default pursuant to which the Borrower shall be required to pay to the Holder upon the consummation of and as a condition to such transaction an amount equal to the Default Amount (as defined in this Note) or (ii) be treated pursuant to Section 1.6(b) hereof. “Person” shall mean any individual, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, association, trust or other entity or organization.
(b)Adjustment Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc. If, at any time when this Note is issued and outstanding and prior to conversion of all of this Note, there shall be any merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, or other similar event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock of the Borrower shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of another class or classes of stock or securities of the Borrower or another entity, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Borrower (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then the Holder of this Note shall thereafter have the right to receive upon conversion of this Note, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion, such stock, securities or assets which the Holder would have been entitled to receive in such transaction had this Note been converted in full immediately prior to such transaction (without regard to any limitations on conversion set forth herein), and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Note to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustment of the Conversion Price and of the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Note) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof. The Borrower shall not effectuate any transaction described in this Section 1.6(b) unless (a) it first gives, to the extent practicable, at least thirty (30) days prior written notice (but in any event at least fifteen (15) days prior written notice) of the record date of the special meeting of shareholders to approve, or if there is no such record date, the consummation of, such merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar event or sale of assets (during which time the Holder shall be entitled to convert this Note), (b) the resulting successor or acquiring entity (if not the Borrower) assumes by written instrument the obligations of this Section 1.6(b), and (c) the Borrower obtains written consent from the Holder to effectuate the respective Fundamental Transaction. The above provisions shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or share exchanges.
(c)Adjustment Due to Distribution. If the Borrower shall declare or make any distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Stock as a dividend, stock repurchase, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including any dividend or distribution to the Borrower’s shareholders in cash or shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock of a subsidiary (i.e., a spin-off)) (a “Distribution”), then the Holder of this Note shall be entitled, upon any conversion of this Note after the date of record for determining shareholders entitled to such Distribution, to receive the amount of such assets which would have been payable to the Holder with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion had such Holder been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to such Distribution.
(d)Purchase Rights. If, at any time when all or any portion of this Note is issued and outstanding, the Borrower issues any convertible securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other
6
property (the “Purchase Rights”) pro rata to the record holders of any class of Common Stock, then the Holder of this Note will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which such Holder could have acquired if such Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note (without regard to any limitations on conversion contained herein) 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.
(e)Dilutive Issuance. If the Borrower, at any time while this Note or any amounts due hereunder are outstanding, issues, sells or grants (or has issued, sold or granted as of the Issue Date, as the case may be) any option to purchase, or sells or grants any right to reprice, or otherwise disposes of, or issues (or has sold or issued, as the case may be, or announces any sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition), any Common Stock or other securities convertible into, exercisable for, or otherwise entitle any person or entity the right to acquire, shares of Common Stock (including, without limitation, upon conversion of this Note, and any convertible notes or warrants outstanding as of or following the Issue Date), in each or any case at an effective price per share that is lower than the then Conversion Price (such lower price, the “Base Conversion Price” and such issuances, collectively, a “Dilutive Issuance”) (it being agreed that if the holder of the Common Stock or other securities so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which are issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the Conversion Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Conversion Price on such date of the Dilutive Issuance), then the Conversion Price shall be reduced, at the option of the Holder, to a price equal to the Base Conversion Price. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such Common Stock or other securities are issued. By way of example, and for the avoidance of doubt, if the Company issues a convertible promissory note and the holder of such convertible promissory note has the right to convert it into Common Stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the then Conversion Price (including but not limited to a conversion price with a discount that varies with the trading prices of or quotations for the Common Stock), then the Holder has the right to reduce the Conversion Price to such Base Conversion Price (including but not limited to a conversion price with a discount that varies with the trading prices of or quotations for the Common Stock) in perpetuity regardless of whether the holder of such convertible promissory note ever effectuated a conversion at the Base Conversion Price. In the event of an issuance of securities involving multiple tranches or closings, any adjustment pursuant to this Section 1.6(e) shall be calculated as if all such securities were issued at the initial closing.
(f)Notice of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price as a result of the events described in Section 1.6 of this Note, the Borrower shall, at its expense and within one (1) calendar day after the occurrence of each respective adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price, compute such adjustment or readjustment and prepare and furnish to the Holder a certificate setting forth (i) the Conversion Price in effect at such time based upon the Dilutive Issuance, (ii) 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 conversion of the Note, (iii) the detailed facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, and (iv) copies of the documentation (including but not limited to relevant transaction documents) that evidences the adjustment or readjustment. In addition, the Borrower shall, within one (1) calendar day after each written request from the Holder, furnish to such Holder a like certificate setting forth (i) the Conversion Price in effect at such time based upon the Dilutive Issuance, (ii) 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 conversion of the Note, (iii) the detailed facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, and (iv) copies of the documentation (including but not limited to relevant transaction documents) that evidences the adjustment or readjustment. For the avoidance of doubt, each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price as a result of the events described in Section 1.6 of this Note shall occur without any action by the Holder and regardless of whether the Borrower complied with the notification provisions in Section 1.6 of this Note.
1.7Status as Shareholder. Upon submission of a Notice of Conversion by the Holder, (i) the Conversion Shares covered thereby shall be deemed converted into shares of Common Stock and (ii) the Holder’s rights as the Holder of such converted portion of this Note shall cease and terminate, excepting only the right to receive certificates for such shares of Common Stock and to any remedies provided herein or otherwise available at law or in equity to such Holder because of a failure by the Borrower to comply with the terms of this Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Holder has not received certificates for all shares of Common Stock prior to the tenth (10th) business day after the expiration of the Deadline with respect to a conversion of any portion of this Note for any reason, then (unless the Holder otherwise elects to retain its status as a holder of Common Stock by so notifying
7
the Borrower) the Holder shall regain the rights of a Holder of this Note with respect to such unconverted portions of this Note and the Borrower shall, as soon as practicable, return such unconverted Note to the Holder or, if the Note has not been surrendered, adjust its records to reflect that such portion of this Note has not been converted. In all cases, the Holder shall retain all of its rights and remedies for the Borrower’s failure to convert this Note.
1.8Prepayment. At any time prior to the date that is one hundred eighty-one (181) calendar days following the Issue Date, the Borrower shall have the right, exercisable on three (3) Trading Days prior written notice to the Holder of the Note, to prepay the outstanding Principal Amount and interest then due under this Note in accordance with this Section 1.8. Any notice of prepayment hereunder (an “Optional Prepayment Notice”) shall be delivered to the Holder of the Note at its registered addresses and shall state: (1) that the Borrower is exercising its right to prepay the Note, and (2) the date of prepayment which shall be three (3) Trading Days from the date of the Optional Prepayment Notice (the “Optional Prepayment Date”). The Holder shall have the right, during the period beginning on the date of Holder’s receipt of the Optional Prepayment Notice and until the Holder’s actual receipt of the full prepayment amount on the Optional Prepayment Date, to instead convert all or any portion of the Note pursuant to the terms of this Note, including the amount of this Note to be prepaid by the Borrower in accordance with this Section 1.8, even if the Note is not yet convertible into Common Stock by the Holder under Section 1.1 of this Note. On the Optional Prepayment Date, the Borrower shall make payment of the amounts designated below to or upon the order of the Holder as specified by the Holder in writing to the Borrower. If the Borrower exercises its right to prepay the Note in accordance with this Section 1.8, the Borrower shall make payment to the Holder of an amount in cash equal to the sum of: (w) the prepayment percentage set forth in the table immediately following this paragraph for the applicable prepayment period set forth in the table immediately following this paragraph (“Prepayment Percentage”) multiplied by the Principal Amount then outstanding plus (x) the Prepayment Percentage multiplied by the accrued and unpaid interest on the Principal Amount to the Optional Prepayment Date.
Prepayment Period | Prepayment Percentage |
1. The period beginning on the Issue Date and ending on the date which is sixty (60) calendar days following the Issue Date. | 95% |
2. The period beginning on the date that is sixty-one (61) calendar days from the Issue Date and ending ninety (90) calendar days following the Issue Date. | 96% |
3. The period beginning on the date that is ninety-one (91) calendar days from the Issue Date and ending one hundred fifty (150) calendar days following the Issue Date. | 97% |
4. The period beginning on the date that is one hundred fifty-one (151) calendar days from the Issue Date and ending one hundred eighty (180) calendar days following the Issue Date. | 98% |
1.9Repayment from Proceeds. If, at any time on or after the Issue Date of this Note, and prior to the full repayment or full conversion of all amounts owed under this Note, the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries receives cash proceeds from any source or series of related or unrelated sources on or after the Issue Date, including but not limited to, from payments from customers, the issuance of equity or debt, the incurrence of indebtedness, a merchant cash advance, sale of receivables or similar transaction, the conversion of outstanding warrants of the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries, the issuance of securities pursuant to an Equity Line of Credit (as defined in this Note) of the Company, or the sale of assets (including but not limited to real property) by the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries, the Company shall, within one (1) business day of Company’s or the Subsidiaries’ receipt of such proceeds, inform the Holder of or publicly disclose such receipt, following which the Holder shall have the right in its sole discretion to require the Company or the Subsidiaries to immediately apply up to 25% of such proceeds to repay all or any portion of the outstanding Principal Amount and interest (including
8
any Default Interest) then due under this Note. Failure of the Company to comply with this provision shall constitute an Event of Default. “Equity Line of Credit” shall mean any transaction involving a written agreement between the Company and an investor or underwriter whereby the Company has the right to “put” its Common Stock to the investor or underwriter over an agreed period of time and at an agreed price or price formula (such Common Stock must be registered pursuant to a registration statement of the Company for the investor’s or underwriter’s resale).
ARTICLE II. RANKING AND CERTAIN COVENANTS
2.1Ranking. This Note shall be an unsecured obligation of the Borrower.
2.2Distributions on Capital Stock. So long as the Borrower shall have any obligation under this Note, the Borrower shall not without the Holder’s written consent (a) pay, declare or set apart for such payment, any dividend or other distribution (whether in cash, property or other securities) on shares of capital stock other than dividends on shares of Common Stock solely in the form of additional shares of Common Stock or (b) directly or indirectly or through any subsidiary make any other payment or distribution in respect of its capital stock except for distributions pursuant to any shareholders’ rights plan which is approved by a majority of the Borrower’s disinterested directors.
2.3Sale of Assets. So long as the Borrower shall have any obligation under this Note, neither the Borrower nor any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries shall, without the Holder’s written consent, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any significant portion of its assets outside the ordinary course of business. Any consent by the Holder to the disposition of any assets may be conditioned on a specified use of the proceeds of disposition.
2.43(a)(10) Transaction.

2.5Right of Notice. From the Issue Date until the date that the Note is extinguished in its entirety, the Company shall not (i) directly or indirectly, offer, sell, grant any option to purchase, or otherwise dispose of (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition of) any of its debt, equity, or equity equivalent securities, including without limitation any debt, preferred shares, or other instrument or security that is, at any time during its life and/or under any circumstances, convertible into, exchangeable, or exercisable for Common Stock (any such offer, sale, grant, disposition or announcement being referred to as a “Subsequent Placement”) or (ii) enter into any definitive agreement with regard to the foregoing, in each case unless the Company shall have first delivered to Holder a written notice (the “Notice”) of any proposed or intended Subsequent Placement, which shall (w) identify and describe the Subsequent Placement, and (x) describe the price and other terms upon which they are to be issued, sold or exchanged, and the number or amount of the securities in the Subsequent Placement to be issued, sold, or exchanged.

3.14Unavailability of Rule 144. If, at any time on or after the date that is six (6) calendar months after the Issue Date, the Holder is unable to (i) obtain a standard “144 legal opinion letter” from an attorney reasonably acceptable to the Holder, the Holder’s brokerage firm (and respective clearing firm), and the Borrower’s transfer agent in order to facilitate the Holder’s conversion of any portion of the Note into free trading shares of the Borrower’s Common Stock pursuant to Rule 144, and/or (ii) thereupon deposit such shares into the Holder’s brokerage account.

Holder may, in Holder’s sole discretion, convert all or any portion of this Note (including the Default Amount) into Common Stock pursuant to the terms of this Note (for the avoidance of doubt, this shall apply even if such conversion occurs after the Maturity Date). The Holder shall be entitled to exercise all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity.
ARTICLE IV. MISCELLANEOUS
4.1Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of the Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privileges.

4.3Amendments. This Note and any provision hereof may only be amended by an instrument in writing signed by the Borrower and the Holder. The term “Note” and all reference thereto, as used throughout this instrument, shall mean this instrument as originally executed, or if later amended or supplemented, then as so amended or supplemented.
4.4Assignability. This Note shall be binding upon the Borrower and its successors and assigns, and shall inure to be the benefit of the Holder and its successors and assigns. The Borrower shall not assign this Note or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Holder. The Holder may assign its rights hereunder to any “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a) of the 1933 Act) in a private transaction from the Holder or to any of its “affiliates”, as that term is defined under the 1934 Act, without the consent of the Borrower.

The Company and Holder hereby acknowledge and agree that the Arbitration Provisions are unconditionally binding on the Company and Holder hereto and are severable from all other provisions of this Note. By executing this Note, Company represents, warrants and covenants that Company has reviewed the Arbitration Provisions carefully, consulted with legal counsel about such provisions (or waived its right to do so), understands that the Arbitration Provisions are intended to allow for the expeditious and efficient resolution of any dispute hereunder, agrees to the terms and limitations set forth in the Arbitration Provisions, and that Company will not take a position contrary to the foregoing representations. The Company acknowledges and agrees that Holder may rely upon the foregoing representations and covenants of the Company regarding the Arbitration Provisions. This Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and performance of this Note shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of Delaware. The Company and Holder consent to and expressly agree that the exclusive venue for arbitration of any Claims arising under this Note or any other agreement between the Company and Holder or their respective affiliates (including but not limited to the Transaction Documents) or any Claim relating to the relationship of the Company and Holder or their respective affiliates shall be in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Without modifying the Company’s and Holder’s obligations to resolve disputes hereunder pursuant to the Arbitration Provisions, for any litigation arising in connection with any of the Transaction Documents (and notwithstanding the terms (specifically including any governing law and venue terms) of any transfer agent services agreement or other agreement between the Company’s transfer agent and the Company, such litigation specifically includes, without limitation any action between or involving Company and the Company’s transfer agent under the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) or otherwise related to Holder in any way (specifically including, without limitation, any action where Company seeks to obtain an injunction, temporary restraining order, or otherwise prohibit the Company’s transfer agent from issuing shares of Common Stock to Holder for any reason)), each party hereto hereby (i) consents to and expressly submits to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, (ii) expressly submits to the exclusive venue of any such court for the purposes hereof, (iii) agrees to not bring any such action (specifically including, without limitation, any action where Company seeks to obtain an injunction, temporary restraining order, or otherwise prohibit the Company’s transfer agent from issuing shares of Common Stock to Holder for any reason) outside of any state or federal court sitting in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and (iv) waives any claim of improper venue and any claim or objection that such
12
courts are an inconvenient forum or any other claim, defense or objection to the bringing of any such proceeding in such jurisdiction or to any claim that such venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, nothing herein shall limit, or shall be deemed or construed to limit, the ability of the Holder to realize on any collateral or any other security, or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of the Holder, including through a legal action in any court of competent jurisdiction. The Company hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any action instituted hereunder, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, and any claim that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper (including but not limited to based upon forum non conveniens). THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS NOTE OR ANY TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. The Company irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any suit, action or proceeding in connection with this Note or any other agreement, certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to Company at the address in effect for notices to it under this Note and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. The prevailing party in any action or dispute brought in connection with this Note or any other agreement, certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby shall be entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable attorney’s fees and costs. If any provision of this Note shall be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Note in that jurisdiction or the validity or enforceability of any provision of this Note in any other jurisdiction.
4.7Certain Amounts. Whenever pursuant to this Note the Borrower is required to pay an amount in excess of the outstanding Principal Amount (or the portion thereof required to be paid at that time) plus accrued and unpaid interest plus Default Interest on such interest, the Borrower and the Holder agree that the actual damages to the Holder from the receipt of cash payment on this Note may be difficult to determine and the amount to be so paid by the Borrower represents stipulated damages and not a penalty and is intended to compensate the Holder in part for loss of the opportunity to convert this Note and to earn a return from the sale of shares of Common Stock acquired upon conversion of this Note at a price in excess of the price paid for such shares pursuant to this Note. The Borrower and the Holder hereby agree that such amount of stipulated damages is not plainly disproportionate to the possible loss to the Holder from the receipt of a cash payment without the opportunity to convert this Note into shares of Common Stock.
4.8Purchase Agreement. The Company and the Holder shall be bound by the applicable terms of the Purchase Agreement, and the Transaction Documents entered into in connection herewith and therewith.
4.9Remedies. The Borrower acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder, by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Borrower acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Note will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Borrower of the provisions of this Note, that the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies at law or in equity, and in addition to the penalties assessable herein, to an injunction or injunctions restraining, preventing or curing any breach of this Note and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.
4.10Construction; Headings. This Note shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Company and all the Holder and shall not be construed against any person as the drafter hereof. The headings of this Note are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Note.
4.11Usury. To the extent it may lawfully do so, the Company hereby agrees not to insist upon or plead or in any manner whatsoever claim, and will resist any and all efforts to be compelled to take the benefit or advantage of, usury laws wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, in connection with any action or proceeding that may be brought by the Holder in order to enforce any right or remedy under this Note. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Note, it is expressly agreed and provided that the total liability of the Company under this Note for payments which under the applicable law are in the nature of interest shall not exceed the maximum lawful rate authorized under applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”), and, without limiting the foregoing,
13
in no event shall any rate of interest or default interest, or both of them, when aggregated with any other sums which under the applicable law in the nature of interest that the Company may be obligated to pay under this Note exceed such Maximum Rate. It is agreed that if the maximum contract rate of interest allowed by applicable law and applicable to this Note is increased or decreased by statute or any official governmental action subsequent to the Issue Date, the new maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law will be the Maximum Rate applicable to this Note from the effective date thereof forward, unless such application is precluded by applicable law. If under any circumstances whatsoever, interest in excess of the Maximum Rate is paid by the Company to the Holder with respect to indebtedness evidenced by this the Note, such excess shall be applied by the Holder to the unpaid principal balance of any such indebtedness or be refunded to the Company, the manner of handling such excess to be at the Holder’s election.
4.12Severability. In the event that any provision of this Note is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law (including any judicial ruling), then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Note.
4.13Terms of Future Financings. So long as this Note is outstanding, upon any issuance by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of any security, or amendment to a security that was originally issued before the Issue Date, with any term that the Holder reasonably believes is more favorable to the holder of such security or with a term in favor of the holder of such security that the Holder reasonably believes was not similarly provided to the Holder in this Note (even if the holder of such other security does not receive the benefit of such more favorable term until a default occurs under such other security), then (i) the Borrower shall notify the Holder of such additional or more favorable term within one (1) business day of the issuance and/or amendment (as applicable) of the respective security, and (ii) such term, at Holder’s option, shall become a part of the transaction documents with the Holder (regardless of whether the Borrower complied with the notification provision of this Section 4.13). The types of terms contained in another security that may be more favorable to the holder of such security include, but are not limited to, terms addressing prepayment rate, interest rates, conversion rate, and original issue discount.
4.14Amortization Payments. In addition to all other payment obligations under this Note, the Borrower shall also make the following amortization payments (each an “Amortization Payment”) in cash to the Holder towards the repayment of this Note, as provided in the following table:
Payment Date: | | Payment Amount: |
December 10, 2026 | | $35,695.00 |
January 10, 2027 | | $35,695.00 |
February 10, 2027 | | $35,695.00 |
March 10, 2027 | | $35,695.00 |

May 10, 2027 | | $35,695.00 |
June 10, 2027 | | All remaining outstanding amounts under the Note |
For the avoidance of doubt, each Amortization Payment paid to Holder under this Note shall first reduce all accrued and unpaid interest under the Note, and the remainder of such Amortization Payment (if any) shall reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Note.

PROMISSORY NOTE
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, CONNECTM TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS, INC., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter called the “Borrower” or the “Company”), hereby promises to pay to the order of AUCTUS FUND, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, or registered assigns (the “Holder”), in the form of lawful money of the United States of America, the principal sum of $150,000.00 (subject to adjustment herein) (the “Principal Amount”) (subject to adjustment herein), which includes the purchase price of $135,000.00 plus an original issue discount in the amount of $15,000.00 (the “OID”), and to pay a one-time interest charge on the Principal Amount hereof at the rate of twelve percent (12%) (the “Interest Rate”) (which is equal to $18,000.00 and shall be guaranteed and earned in full as of the date hereof (the “Issue Date”)), when such amounts become due and payable, whether at maturity or upon acceleration or by prepayment or otherwise, as further provided herein. The maturity date shall be twelve (12) months from the Issue Date (the “Maturity Date”) and is the date upon which the outstanding Principal Amount (which includes the OID) as well as any accrued and unpaid interest and other fees shall be due and payable (in addition to all payment obligations under Section 4.16 of this Note).
This Note may not be prepaid or repaid in whole or in part except as otherwise explicitly set forth herein.
Any Principal Amount or interest on this Note which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of the lesser of (i) twenty-two percent (22%) per annum and (ii) the maximum amount permitted by law from the due date thereof until the same is paid (“Default Interest”). Interest and Default Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed.
All payments due hereunder (to the extent not converted into shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of the Borrower (the “Common Stock”) in accordance with the terms hereof) shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America. All payments shall be made at such address as the Holder shall hereafter give to the Borrower by written notice made in accordance with the provisions of this Note. Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Note is due on any day which is not a business day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day which is a business day.
Each capitalized term used herein, and not otherwise defined, shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of the Issue Date, pursuant to which this Note was originally issued (the “Purchase Agreement”). As used in this Note, the term “business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banks in the city of New York, New York are authorized or required by law or executive order to remain closed. As used herein, the term “Trading Day” means any day that shares of Common Stock are listed for trading or quotation on the Principal Market (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), provided, however, that if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted on any Principal Market, then any calendar day.
This Note is free from all taxes, liens, claims and encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof and shall not be subject to preemptive rights or other similar rights of shareholders of the Borrower and will not impose personal liability upon the holder thereof.
The following terms shall also apply to this Note:
1
ARTICLE I. CONVERSION RIGHTS
1.1Conversion Right. The Holder shall have the right, on any calendar day, at any time on or following the earlier of (i) the date that an Event of Default (as defined in this Note) occurs under this Note or (ii) the date that the Borrower fails to pay any Amortization Payment (as defined in this Note) when due as provided in Section 4.16 of this Note, to convert all or any portion of the then outstanding and unpaid Principal Amount and interest (including any Default Interest) into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, as such Common Stock exists on the Issue Date, or any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified, at the Conversion Price (as defined below) determined as provided herein (a “Conversion”), by submitting to the Borrower or Borrower’s transfer agent a Notice of Conversion (as defined in this Note) by facsimile, e-mail or other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date (as defined in this Note) prior to 11:59 p.m., New York, New York time; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Note, pursuant to Section 1 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 (the “Affiliates”), and any other Persons (as defined below) 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 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 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 1.1, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”) and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 1.1, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the 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 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 the 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 at the time of the respective calculation hereunder. “Person” and “Persons” means an individual, a limited liability company, a partnership, a joint venture, a corporation, a trust, an unincorporated organization, any other entity and any governmental entity or any department or agency thereof. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Note. The number of Conversion Shares (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) (the “Conversion Shares”) to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing the Conversion Amount (as defined below) by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect on the date specified in the notice of conversion, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Notice of Conversion”), delivered to the Borrower or Borrower’s transfer agent by the Holder in accordance with the terms of this Note; provided that the Notice of Conversion is submitted by facsimile or e-mail (or by other means resulting in, or reasonably expected to result in, notice) to the Borrower or Borrower’s transfer agent before 11:59 p.m., New York, New York time on such conversion date (the “Conversion Date”). The term “Conversion Amount” means, with respect to any conversion of this Note, the sum of (1) the Principal Amount of this Note to be converted in such conversion plus (2) at the Holder’s option, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such Principal Amount at the Interest Rate to the Conversion Date, plus (3) at the Holder’s option, Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (1) and/or (2).
1.2Conversion Price.
2
(a)Calculation of Conversion Price. The per share conversion price into which Principal Amount and interest (including any Default Interest) under this Note shall be convertible into shares of Common Stock hereunder as further described in this Note (the “Conversion Price”) shall equal to 65% of the lowest traded price of the Common Stock on the Principal Market on any Trading Day during the fifteen (15) Trading Days prior to the respective Conversion Date, subject to adjustment as provided in this Note. If at any time the Conversion Price as determined hereunder for any conversion would be less than the par value of the Common Stock, then at the sole discretion of the Holder, the Conversion Price hereunder may equal such par value for such conversion and the Conversion Amount for such conversion may be increased to include Additional Principal, where “Additional Principal” means such additional amount to be added to the Conversion Amount to the extent necessary to cause the number of conversion shares issuable upon such conversion to equal the same number of conversion shares as would have been issued had the Conversion Price not been adjusted by the Holder to the par value price. Holder shall be entitled to deduct $1,750.00 from the conversion amount in each Notice of Conversion to cover Holder’s fees associated with each Notice of Conversion. All such Conversion Price determinations are to be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, rights offerings, reclassification or similar transaction that proportionately decreases or increases the Common Stock. 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 shares of Common Stock on shares of Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalents, (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (iv) issues, in the event of a reclassification of shares of the 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 the immediately preceding sentence shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders 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. “Common Stock Equivalents” means any securities of the Company or the Company’s Subsidiaries (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) 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)Voluntary Adjustment By Company. Subject to the rules and regulations of the Principal Market, the Company may at any time while this Note is outstanding, with the prior written consent of the Holder, reduce the then applicable Conversion Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder shall not be required to effectuate such conversion in the event of any reduction in Conversion Price by the Company.
1.3Authorized and Reserved Shares. The Borrower covenants that at all times until the Note is satisfied in full, the Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance of a number of Conversion Shares equal to the greater of: (a) 4,500,000 shares of Common Stock or (b) the sum of (i) the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon the full conversion of this Note (assuming no payment of Principal Amount or interest) at the then applicable Conversion Price multiplied by (ii) three (3) (the “Reserved Amount”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Reserved Amount shall be required to be reserved by the Borrower pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence even if the Note is not yet convertible into Common Stock by the Holder under Section 1.1 of this Note. The Borrower represents that upon issuance, the Conversion Shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Borrower (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer agent to issue certificates for the Conversion Shares or instructions to have the Conversion Shares issued as contemplated by Section 1.4(f) hereof, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates or cause the Company to electronically issue shares of Common Stock to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Conversion Shares or cause the Conversion Shares to be issued as contemplated by Section 1.4(f) hereof in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Note.
1.4Method of Conversion.
(a)Surrender of Note Upon Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Borrower unless the entire unpaid Principal Amount is so converted. The Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the Principal Amount so converted and the dates of such conversions or
3
shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Borrower, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, such records of the Holder shall, prima facie, be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error. 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 represented by this Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
(b)Payment of Taxes. The Borrower shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of shares of Common Stock or other securities or property on conversion of this Note in a name other than that of the Holder (or in street name), and the Borrower shall not be required to issue or deliver any such shares or other securities or property unless and until the person or persons (other than the Holder or the custodian in whose street name such shares are to be held for the Holder’s account) requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Borrower the amount of any such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Borrower that such tax has been paid.
(c)Delivery of Common Stock Upon Conversion. Upon receipt by the Borrower or Borrower’s transfer agent from the Holder of a facsimile transmission or e-mail (or other reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in this Section 1.4, the Borrower shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder certificates for the Conversion Shares (or cause the electronic delivery of the Conversion Shares as contemplated by Section 1.4(f) hereof) within one (1) Trading Day after such receipt (the “Deadline”) (and, solely in the case of conversion of the entire unpaid Principal Amount and interest (including any Default Interest) under this Note, surrender of this Note). If the Company shall fail for any reason or for no reason to issue to the Holder on or prior to the Deadline a certificate for the number of Conversion Shares or to which the Holder is entitled hereunder and register such Conversion Shares on the Company’s share register or to credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC (as defined below) for such number of Conversion Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s conversion of this Note (a “Conversion Failure”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, (i) the Company shall pay in cash to the Holder on each day after the Deadline and during such Conversion Failure an amount equal to 2.0% of the product of (A) the sum of the number of Conversion Shares not issued to the Holder on or prior to the Deadline and to which the Holder is entitled and (B) the closing sale price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the last possible date which the Company could have issued such Conversion Shares to the Holder without violating this Section 1.4(d); and (ii) the Holder, upon written notice to the Company, may void all or any portion of such Notice of Conversion; provided that the voiding of all or any portion of a Notice of Conversion shall not affect the Company’s obligations to make any payments which have accrued prior to the date of such notice. In addition to the foregoing, if on or prior to the Deadline the Company shall fail to issue and deliver a certificate to the Holder and register such Conversion Shares on the Company’s share register or credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for the number of Conversion Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder or pursuant to the Company’s obligation pursuant to clause (ii) below, and if on or after such Trading Day the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company, then the Company shall, within two (2) Trading Days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other reasonable and customary out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such Conversion Shares) or credit such Holder’s balance account with DTC for such Conversion Shares shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such Conversion Shares or credit such Holder’s balance account with DTC and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Common Stock, times (B) the closing sales price of the Common Stock on the date of exercise. Nothing shall limit the 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 the Conversion Shares (or to electronically deliver such Conversion Shares) upon the conversion of this Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
(d)Obligation of Borrower to Deliver Common Stock. At the time that the Holder submits the Notice of Conversion to the Borrower or Borrower’s transfer agent, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Conversion Shares issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding Principal Amount and the amount of accrued and unpaid interest (including any Default Interest) under this Note shall be reduced to reflect such
4
conversion, and, unless the Borrower defaults on its obligations under this Article I, all rights with respect to the portion of this Note being so converted shall forthwith terminate except the right to receive the Common Stock or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such conversion. If the Holder shall have given a Notice of Conversion as provided herein, the Borrower’s obligation to issue and deliver the certificates for the Conversion Shares (or cause the electronic delivery of the Conversion Shares as contemplated by Section 1.4(f) hereof) shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the absence of any action by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or any action to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of any other obligation of the Borrower to the holder of record, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder of any obligation to the Borrower, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Borrower to the Holder in connection with such conversion. The Conversion Date specified in the Notice of Conversion shall be the Conversion Date so long as the Notice of Conversion is sent to the Borrower or Borrower’s transfer agent before 11:59 p.m., New York, New York time, on such date.
(e)Delivery of Conversion Shares by Electronic Transfer. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion hereof, provided the Borrower is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer or Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian programs, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions contained in Section 1.1 and in this Section 1.4, the Borrower shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion hereof to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder’s Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system.
1.5Concerning the Shares. The Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred unless (i) such shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act or (ii) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have been furnished with an opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be the Legal Counsel Opinion (as defined in the Purchase Agreement)) to the effect that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration or (iii) such shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144, Rule 144A, Regulation S, or other applicable exemption, or (iv) such shares are transferred to an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144) of the Borrower who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the shares only in accordance with this Section 1.5 and who is an Accredited Investor (as defined in the Purchase Agreement). Except as otherwise provided in the Purchase Agreement (and subject to the removal provisions set forth below), until such time as the Conversion Shares have been registered under the 1933 Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144, Rule 144A, Regulation S, or other applicable exemption without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, each certificate for the Conversion Shares that has not been so included in an effective registration statement or that has not been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption that permits removal of the legend, shall bear a legend substantially in the following form, as appropriate:
“NEITHER THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE EXERCISABLE HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH MAY BE THE LEGAL COUNSEL OPINION (AS DEFINED IN THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT)), IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144, RULE 144A, REGULATION S UNDER SAID ACT, OR OTHER APPLICABLE EXEMPTION. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.”
The legend set forth above shall be removed and the Company shall issue to the Holder a certificate for the applicable Conversion Shares without such legend upon which it is stamped or (as requested by the Holder) issue the applicable Conversion Shares by electronic delivery by crediting the account of such holder’s broker with DTC, if, unless otherwise required by applicable state securities laws: (a) such Conversion Shares are registered for sale under
5
an effective registration statement filed under the 1933 Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144, Rule 144A, Regulation S, or other applicable exemption without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, or (b) the Company or the Holder provides the Legal Counsel Opinion (as contemplated by and in accordance with Section 4(l) of the Purchase Agreement) to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Conversion Shares may be made without registration under the 1933 Act, which opinion shall be accepted by the Company so that the sale or transfer is effected. The Company shall be responsible for the fees of its transfer agent and all DTC fees associated with any such issuance. The Holder agrees to sell all Conversion Shares, including those represented by a certificate(s) from which the legend has been removed, in compliance with applicable prospectus delivery requirements, if any. In the event that the Company does not accept the opinion of counsel provided by the Holder with respect to the transfer of Conversion Shares pursuant to an exemption from registration, such as Rule 144, Rule 144A, Regulation S, or other applicable exemption, at the Deadline, notwithstanding that the conditions of Rule 144, Rule 144A, Regulation S, or other applicable exemption, as applicable, have been met, it will be considered an Event of Default under this Note.
1.6Effect of Certain Events.
(a)Effect of Merger, Consolidation, Etc. At the option of the Holder, the sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower, or the consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Borrower with or into any other Person (as defined below) or Persons when the Borrower is not the survivor shall either: (i) be deemed to be an Event of Default pursuant to which the Borrower shall be required to pay to the Holder upon the consummation of and as a condition to such transaction an amount equal to the Default Amount (as defined in this Note) or (ii) be treated pursuant to Section 1.6(b) hereof. “Person” shall mean any individual, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, association, trust or other entity or organization.
(b)Adjustment Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc. If, at any time when this Note is issued and outstanding and prior to conversion of all of this Note, there shall be any merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, or other similar event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock of the Borrower shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of another class or classes of stock or securities of the Borrower or another entity, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Borrower, then the Holder of this Note shall thereafter have the right to receive upon conversion of this Note, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion, such stock, securities or assets which the Holder would have been entitled to receive in such transaction had this Note been converted in full immediately prior to such transaction (without regard to any limitations on conversion set forth herein), and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Note to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustment of the Conversion Price and of the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Note) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof. The Borrower shall not effectuate any transaction described in this Section 1.6(b) unless (a) it first gives, to the extent practicable, at least thirty (30) days prior written notice (but in any event at least fifteen (15) days prior written notice) of the record date of the special meeting of shareholders to approve, or if there is no such record date, the consummation of, such merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar event or sale of assets (during which time the Holder shall be entitled to convert this Note) and (b) the resulting successor or acquiring entity (if not the Borrower) assumes by written instrument the obligations of this Section 1.6(b). The above provisions shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or share exchanges.
(c)Adjustment Due to Distribution. If the Borrower shall declare or make any distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Stock as a dividend, stock repurchase, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including any dividend or distribution to the Borrower’s shareholders in cash or shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock of a subsidiary (i.e., a spin-off)) (a “Distribution”), then the Holder of this Note shall be entitled, upon any conversion of this Note after the date of record for determining shareholders entitled to such Distribution, to receive the amount of such assets which would have been payable to the Holder with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion had such Holder been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to such Distribution.
(d)Purchase Rights. If, at any time when all or any portion of this Note is issued and outstanding, the Borrower issues any convertible securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property (the “Purchase Rights”) pro rata to the record holders of any class of Common Stock, then the Holder of this
6
Note will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which such Holder could have acquired if such Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note (without regard to any limitations on conversion contained herein) 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.
(e)Dilutive Issuance. If the Borrower, at any time while this Note or any amounts due hereunder are outstanding, issues, sells or grants (or has issued, sold or granted as of the Issue Date, as the case may be) any option to purchase, or sells or grants any right to reprice, or otherwise disposes of, or issues (or has sold or issued, as the case may be, or announces any sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition), any Common Stock or other securities convertible into, exercisable for, or otherwise entitle any person or entity the right to acquire, shares of Common Stock (including, without limitation, upon conversion of this Note, and any convertible notes or warrants outstanding as of or following the Issue Date), in each or any case at an effective price per share that is lower than the then Conversion Price (such lower price, the “Base Conversion Price” and such issuances, collectively, a “Dilutive Issuance”) (it being agreed that if the holder of the Common Stock or other securities so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which are issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the Conversion Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Conversion Price on such date of the Dilutive Issuance), then the Conversion Price shall be reduced, at the option of the Holder, to a price equal to the Base Conversion Price. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such Common Stock or other securities are issued. By way of example, and for the avoidance of doubt, if the Company issues a convertible promissory note (including but not limited to a Variable Rate Transaction (as defined in the Purchase Agreement)), and the holder of such convertible promissory note has the right to convert it into Common Stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the then Conversion Price (including but not limited to a conversion price with a discount that varies with the trading prices of or quotations for the Common Stock), then the Holder has the right to reduce the Conversion Price to such Base Conversion Price (including but not limited to a conversion price with a discount that varies with the trading prices of or quotations for the Common Stock) in perpetuity regardless of whether the holder of such convertible promissory note ever effectuated a conversion at the Base Conversion Price. In the event of an issuance of securities involving multiple tranches or closings, any adjustment pursuant to this Section 1.6(e) shall be calculated as if all such securities were issued at the initial closing.
(f)Notice of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price as a result of the events described in Section 1.6 of this Note, the Borrower shall, at its expense and within one (1) calendar day after the occurrence of each respective adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price, compute such adjustment or readjustment and prepare and furnish to the Holder a certificate setting forth (i) the Conversion Price in effect at such time based upon the Dilutive Issuance, (ii) 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 conversion of the Note, (iii) the detailed facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, and (iv) copies of the documentation (including but not limited to relevant transaction documents) that evidences the adjustment or readjustment. In addition, the Borrower shall, within one (1) calendar day after each written request from the Holder, furnish to such Holder a like certificate setting forth (i) the Conversion Price in effect at such time based upon the Dilutive Issuance, (ii) 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 conversion of the Note, (iii) the detailed facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, and (iv) copies of the documentation (including but not limited to relevant transaction documents) that evidences the adjustment or readjustment. For the avoidance of doubt, each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price as a result of the events described in Section 1.6 of this Note shall occur without any action by the Holder and regardless of whether the Borrower complied with the notification provisions in Section 1.6 of this Note.
1.7Status as Shareholder. Upon submission of a Notice of Conversion by the Holder, (i) the Conversion Shares covered thereby shall be deemed converted into shares of Common Stock and (ii) the Holder’s rights as the Holder of such converted portion of this Note shall cease and terminate, excepting only the right to receive certificates for such shares of Common Stock and to any remedies provided herein or otherwise available at law or in equity to such Holder because of a failure by the Borrower to comply with the terms of this Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Holder has not received certificates for all shares of Common Stock prior to the tenth (10th) business day after the expiration of the Deadline with respect to a conversion of any portion of this Note for any reason, then (unless the Holder otherwise elects to retain its status as a holder of Common Stock by so notifying the Borrower) the Holder shall regain the rights of a Holder of this Note with respect to such unconverted portions of
7
this Note and the Borrower shall, as soon as practicable, return such unconverted Note to the Holder or, if the Note has not been surrendered, adjust its records to reflect that such portion of this Note has not been converted. In all cases, the Holder shall retain all of its rights and remedies for the Borrower’s failure to convert this Note.
1.8Prepayment. At any time prior to the date that an Event of Default (as defined in this Note) occurs under this Note, the Borrower shall have the right, exercisable on three (3) Trading Days prior written notice to the Holder of the Note, to prepay the outstanding Principal Amount and interest then due under this Note in accordance with this Section 1.8. Any notice of prepayment hereunder (an “Optional Prepayment Notice”) shall be delivered to the Holder of the Note at its registered addresses and shall state: (1) that the Borrower is exercising its right to prepay the Note, and (2) the date of prepayment which shall be three (3) Trading Days from the date of the Optional Prepayment Notice (the “Optional Prepayment Date”). The Holder shall have the right, during the period beginning on the date of Holder’s receipt of the Optional Prepayment Notice and until the Holder’s actual receipt of the full prepayment amount on the Optional Prepayment Date, to instead convert all or any portion of the Note pursuant to the terms of this Note, including the amount of this Note to be prepaid by the Borrower in accordance with this Section 1.8. On the Optional Prepayment Date, the Borrower shall make payment of the amounts designated below to or upon the order of the Holder as specified by the Holder in writing to the Borrower. If the Borrower exercises its right to prepay the Note in accordance with this Section 1.8, the Borrower shall make payment to the Holder of an amount in cash equal to the sum of: (w) 100% multiplied by the Principal Amount then outstanding plus (x) 100% multiplied by the accrued and unpaid interest on the Principal Amount to the Optional Prepayment Date plus (y) $750.00 to reimburse Holder for administrative fees. If the Borrower delivers an Optional Prepayment Notice and fails to pay the applicable prepayment amount due to the Holder of the Note as provided in this Section 1.8, then the Borrower shall forever forfeit its right to prepay any part of the Note pursuant to this Section 1.8.
1.9Repayment from Proceeds. If, at any time on or after the Issue Date of this Note, and prior to the full repayment or full conversion of all amounts owed under this Note, the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries receives cash proceeds from any public offering of securities on or after the Issue Date or the sale of assets (including but not limited to real property) by the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries, the Company shall, within one (1) business day of Company’s or the Subsidiaries’ receipt of such proceeds, inform the Holder of or publicly disclose such receipt, following which the Holder shall have the right in its sole discretion to require the Company or the Subsidiaries to immediately apply up to 50% of such proceeds to repay all or any portion of the outstanding Principal Amount and interest (including any Default Interest) then due under this Note. Failure of the Company to comply with this provision shall constitute an Event of Default. “Equity Line of Credit” shall mean any transaction involving a written agreement between the Company and an investor or underwriter whereby the Company has the right to “put” its Common Stock to the investor or underwriter over an agreed period of time and at an agreed price or price formula (such Common Stock must be registered pursuant to a registration statement of the Company for the investor’s or underwriter’s resale).

This Note shall be unsecured Indebtedness of the Borrower. “Indebtedness” shall mean all indebtedness, including but not limited to (a) all indebtedness of the Borrower or Subsidiaries for the deferred purchase price of property or services, including any type of letters of credit, (b) all liabilities, obligations and indebtedness for borrowed money including, but not limited to, all obligations of the Borrower or Subsidiaries evidenced by notes, bonds, debentures or other similar instruments, (c) purchase money indebtedness hereafter incurred by the Borrower or Subsidiaries to finance the purchase of fixed or capital assets, including all capital lease obligations of the Borrower which do not exceed the purchase price of the assets funded, (d) all guaranties, endorsements and other contingent obligations in respect of indebtedness of Borrower, Subsidiaries or others, whether or not the same are or should be reflected in the Borrower’s or Subsidiaries’ consolidated balance sheet (or the notes thereto), (e) all guarantee obligations of the Borrower or Subsidiaries in respect of obligations of the kind referred to in clauses (a) through (d) above that the Borrower or Subsidiaries would not be permitted to incur or enter into, and (f) all obligations of the kind referred to in clauses (a) through (e) above that the Borrower or Subsidiaries is not permitted to incur or enter into that are secured and/or unsecured by (or for which the holder of such obligation has an existing right, contingent or otherwise, to be secured and/or unsecured by) any lien or encumbrance on property (including accounts and contract rights) owned by the Borrower or Subsidiaries, whether or not the Borrower or Subsidiaries has assumed or become liable for the payment of such obligation.
2.2Distributions on Capital Stock. So long as the Borrower shall have any obligation under this Note, the Borrower shall not without the Holder’s written consent (a) pay, declare or set apart for such payment, any dividend or other distribution (whether in cash, property or other securities) on shares of capital stock other than
8
dividends on shares of Common Stock solely in the form of additional shares of Common Stock or (b) directly or indirectly or through any subsidiary make any other payment or distribution in respect of its capital stock except for distributions pursuant to any shareholders’ rights plan which is approved by a majority of the Borrower’s disinterested directors.

ARTICLE IV. MISCELLANEOUS
11
4.1Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of the Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privileges.

4.4Assignability. This Note shall be binding upon the Borrower and its successors and assigns, and shall inure to be the benefit of the Holder and its successors and assigns.

The Company and Holder hereby acknowledge and agree that the Arbitration Provisions are unconditionally binding on the Company and Holder hereto and are severable from all other provisions of this
12
Note. By executing this Note, Company represents, warrants and covenants that Company has reviewed the Arbitration Provisions carefully, consulted with legal counsel about such provisions (or waived its right to do so), understands that the Arbitration Provisions are intended to allow for the expeditious and efficient resolution of any dispute hereunder, agrees to the terms and limitations set forth in the Arbitration Provisions, and that Company will not take a position contrary to the foregoing representations. The Company acknowledges and agrees that Holder may rely upon the foregoing representations and covenants of the Company regarding the Arbitration Provisions. This Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and performance of this Note shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of Delaware. The Company and Holder consent to and expressly agree that the exclusive venue for arbitration of any Claims arising under this Note or any other agreement between the Company and Holder or their respective affiliates (including but not limited to the Transaction Documents) or any Claim relating to the relationship of the Company and Holder or their respective affiliates shall be in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Without modifying the Company’s and Holder’s obligations to resolve disputes hereunder pursuant to the Arbitration Provisions, for any litigation arising in connection with any of the Transaction Documents (and notwithstanding the terms (specifically including any governing law and venue terms) of any transfer agent services agreement or other agreement between the Company’s transfer agent and the Company, such litigation specifically includes, without limitation any action between or involving Company and the Company’s transfer agent under the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) or otherwise related to Holder in any way (specifically including, without limitation, any action where Company seeks to obtain an injunction, temporary restraining order, or otherwise prohibit the Company’s transfer agent from issuing shares of Common Stock to Holder for any reason)), each party hereto hereby (i) consents to and expressly submits to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, (ii) expressly submits to the exclusive venue of any such court for the purposes hereof, (iii) agrees to not bring any such action (specifically including, without limitation, any action where Company seeks to obtain an injunction, temporary restraining order, or otherwise prohibit the Company’s transfer agent from issuing shares of Common Stock to Holder for any reason) outside of any state or federal court sitting in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and (iv) waives any claim of improper venue and any claim or objection that such courts are an inconvenient forum or any other claim, defense or objection to the bringing of any such proceeding in such jurisdiction or to any claim that such venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, nothing herein (i) shall limit, or shall be deemed or construed to limit, the ability of the Holder to realize on any collateral or any other security, or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of the Holder, including through a legal action in any court of competent jurisdiction, or (ii) shall limit, or shall be deemed or construed to limit, any provision of Section 4.16 of this Note. The Company hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any action instituted hereunder, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, and any claim that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper (including but not limited to based upon forum non conveniens). THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS NOTE OR ANY TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. The Company irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any suit, action or proceeding in connection with this Note or any other agreement, certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to Company at the address in effect for notices to it under this Note and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. The prevailing party in any action or dispute brought in connection with this Note or any other agreement, certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby shall be entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable attorney’s fees and costs. If any provision of this Note shall be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Note in that jurisdiction or the validity or enforceability of any provision of this Note in any other jurisdiction.
4.7Certain Amounts. Whenever pursuant to this Note the Borrower is required to pay an amount in excess of the outstanding Principal Amount (or the portion thereof required to be paid at that time) plus accrued and unpaid interest plus Default Interest on such interest, the Borrower and the Holder agree that the actual damages to the Holder from the receipt of cash payment on this Note may be difficult to determine and the amount to be so paid by the Borrower represents stipulated damages and not a penalty and is intended to compensate the Holder in part for
13
loss of the opportunity to convert this Note and to earn a return from the sale of shares of Common Stock acquired upon conversion of this Note at a price in excess of the price paid for such shares pursuant to this Note. The Borrower and the Holder hereby agree that such amount of stipulated damages is not plainly disproportionate to the possible loss to the Holder from the receipt of a cash payment without the opportunity to convert this Note into shares of Common Stock.
4.8Purchase Agreement. The Company and the Holder shall be bound by the applicable terms of the Purchase Agreement and the Transaction Documents entered into in connection herewith and therewith.
4.9Notice of Corporate Events. Except as otherwise provided below, the Holder of this Note shall have no rights as a Holder of Common Stock unless and only to the extent that it converts this Note into Common Stock. The Borrower shall provide the Holder with prior notification of any meeting of the Borrower’s shareholders (and copies of proxy materials and other information sent to shareholders). In the event of any taking by the Borrower of a record of its shareholders for the purpose of determining shareholders who are entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution, any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire (including by way of merger, consolidation, reclassification or recapitalization) any share of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or for the purpose of determining shareholders who are entitled to vote in connection with any change in control or any proposed liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Borrower, the Borrower shall mail a notice to the Holder, at least twenty (20) days prior to the record date specified therein (or thirty (30) days prior to the consummation of the transaction or event, whichever is earlier), of the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, right or other event, and a brief statement regarding the amount and character of such dividend, distribution, right or other event to the extent known at such time. The Borrower shall make a public announcement of any event requiring notification to the Holder hereunder substantially simultaneously with the notification to the Holder in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.9.
4.10Remedies. The Borrower acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder, by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Borrower acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Note will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Borrower of the provisions of this Note, that the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies at law or in equity, and in addition to the penalties assessable herein, to an injunction or injunctions restraining, preventing or curing any breach of this Note and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. The Borrower hereby expressly waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the pleading or assertion of any statute of limitations as a defense to the enforcement of this Note or the payment or performance of any obligation hereunder. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that no statute of limitations that would otherwise apply shall bar or limit any action or proceeding brought by the Holder to enforce the terms of this Note.
4.11Construction; Headings. This Note shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Company and all the Holder and shall not be construed against any person as the drafter hereof. The headings of this Note are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Note.
4.12Usury. To the extent it may lawfully do so, the Company hereby agrees not to insist upon or plead or in any manner whatsoever claim, and will resist any and all efforts to be compelled to take the benefit or advantage of, usury laws wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, in connection with any action or proceeding that may be brought by the Holder in order to enforce any right or remedy under this Note. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Note, it is expressly agreed and provided that the total liability of the Company under this Note for payments which under the applicable law are in the nature of interest shall not exceed the maximum lawful rate authorized under applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”), and, without limiting the foregoing, in no event shall any rate of interest or default interest, or both of them, when aggregated with any other sums which under the applicable law in the nature of interest that the Company may be obligated to pay under this Note exceed such Maximum Rate. It is agreed that if the maximum contract rate of interest allowed by applicable law and applicable to this Note is increased or decreased by statute or any official governmental action subsequent to the Issue Date, the new maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law will be the Maximum Rate applicable to this Note from the effective date thereof forward, unless such application is precluded by applicable law. If under any circumstances whatsoever, interest in excess of the Maximum Rate is paid by the Company to the Holder with respect to indebtedness evidenced by this the Note, such excess shall be applied by the Holder to the unpaid principal balance of any such indebtedness or be refunded to the Company, the manner of handling such excess to be at the Holder’s election.
14
4.13Severability. In the event that any provision of this Note is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law (including any judicial ruling), then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Note.
4.14Terms of Future Financings. So long as this Note is outstanding, upon any issuance by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of any security, or amendment to a security that was originally issued before the Issue Date, with any term that the Holder reasonably believes is more favorable to the holder of such security or with a term in favor of the holder of such security that the Holder reasonably believes was not similarly provided to the Holder in this Note (even if the holder of such other security does not receive the benefit of such more favorable term until a default occurs under such other security), then (i) the Borrower shall notify the Holder of such additional or more favorable term within one (1) business day of the issuance and/or amendment (as applicable) of the respective security, and (ii) such term, at Holder’s option, shall become a part of the transaction documents with the Holder (regardless of whether the Borrower complied with the notification provision of this Section 4.14). The types of terms contained in another security that may be more favorable to the holder of such security include, but are not limited to, terms addressing prepayment rate, interest rates, and original issue discounts.
4.15Dispute Resolution.
(a)In the case of a dispute relating to the Conversion Price, Conversion Amount, any prepayment amount or Default Amount, Issue Date, Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) (the “Closing Date”), Maturity Date, the closing bid price, or fair market value (as the case may be) (including, without limitation, a dispute relating to the determination of any of the foregoing) (the “Note Calculations”), the Company or the Holder (as the case may be) shall submit the dispute to the other party via electronic mail (A) if by the Company, within two (2) Trading Days after the occurrence of the circumstances giving rise to such dispute or (B) if by the Holder, at any time after the Holder learned of the circumstances giving rise to such dispute. If the Holder and the Company are unable to agree upon such determination or calculation within two (2) Trading Days following such initial notice by the Company or the Holder (as the case may be) of such dispute to the Company or the Holder (as the case may be), then the Holder may, at its sole option, submit the dispute to an independent, reputable investment bank or independent, outside accountant selected by the Holder (the “Independent Third Party”), and the Company shall pay all expenses of such Independent Third Party.
(b)The Holder and the Company shall each deliver to such Independent Third Party (A) a copy of the initial dispute submission so delivered in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 4.15(a) and (B) written documentation supporting its position with respect to such dispute, in each case, no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York time) by second (2nd) Business Day immediately following the date on which the Holder selected such Independent Third Party (the “Dispute Submission Deadline”) (the documents referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (A) and (B) are collectively referred to herein as the “Required Dispute Documentation”) (it being understood and agreed that if either the Holder or the Company fails to so deliver all of the Required Dispute Documentation by the Dispute Submission Deadline, then the party who fails to so submit all of the Required Dispute Documentation shall no longer be entitled to (and hereby waives its right to) deliver or submit any written documentation or other support to such Independent Third Party with respect to such dispute and such Independent Third Party shall resolve such dispute based solely on the Required Dispute Documentation that was delivered to such Independent Third Party prior to the Dispute Submission Deadline). Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by both the Company and the Holder or otherwise requested by such Independent Third Party, neither the Company nor the Holder shall be entitled to deliver or submit any written documentation or other support to such Independent Third Party in connection with such dispute, other than the Required Dispute Documentation.
(c)The Company and the Holder shall cause such Independent Third Party to determine the resolution of such dispute and notify the Company and the Holder of such resolution no later than five (5) Business Days immediately following the Dispute Submission Deadline. The fees and expenses of such Independent Third Party shall be borne solely by the Company, and such Independent Third Party’s resolution of such dispute shall be final and binding upon all parties absent manifest error.
(d)The Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) this Section 4.15 constitutes an agreement to arbitrate between the Company and the Holder (and constitutes an arbitration agreement) under the rules then in effect under the Delaware Rules of Civil Procedure (“DRCP”) and that the Holder is authorized to apply for an order to compel arbitration pursuant to the DRCP in order to compel compliance with this Section 4.15, (ii) a
15
dispute relating to the Note Calculations includes, without limitation, disputes as to (A) whether an issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale of Common Stock occurred under Section 1.6 of this Note, (B) the consideration per share at which an issuance or deemed issuance of Common Stock occurred, (C) whether any issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale of Common Stock was an issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale, (D) whether an agreement, instrument, security or the like constitutes a Common Stock Equivalent and (E) whether a Dilutive Issuance occurred, (iii) the terms of this Note and each other applicable Transaction Document shall serve as the basis for the selected Independent Third Party’s resolution of the applicable dispute, such Independent Third Party shall be entitled (and is hereby expressly authorized) to make all findings, determinations and the like that such Independent Third Party determines are required to be made by such Independent Third Party in connection with its resolution of such dispute (including, without limitation, determining (A) whether an issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale of Common Stock occurred under Section 1.6 of this Note, (B) the consideration per share at which an issuance or deemed issuance of Common Stock occurred, (C) whether any issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale of Common Stock was an issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale, (D) whether an agreement, instrument, security or the like constitutes a Common Stock Equivalent and (E) whether a Dilutive Issuance occurred) and in resolving such dispute such Independent Third Party shall apply such findings, determinations and the like to the terms of this Note and any other applicable Transaction Documents, and (iv) nothing in this Section 4.15 shall limit the Holder from obtaining any injunctive relief or other equitable remedies (including, without limitation, with respect to any matters described in this Section 4.15).
