If the Company consummates any equity or debt financing before satisfying in full its obligations under the Debentures, then 50% of every net dollar received by the Company from any such financing transaction shall be paid by the Company to the holders of the Debentures, on a pro rata basis, as a mandatory pre-payment thereof. In the event the Company has repaid all sums owing under a Debenture to the Investor, except for an amount equal to any non-conditional OID, the Company has the right, not the obligation, to exercise the vested portion of the Warrant held by the Debenture holder through a set-off of any or all such unpaid OID, on a dollar-for-dollar basis. The Warrants also feature a “cashless” exercise provision. In lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon exercise of a Warrant in payment of the aggregate exercise price, the holder may elect instead to receive upon such exercise (either in whole or in part) the net number of shares of Common Stock determined according to a formula set forth in the Warrant.
