Prior to the consummation of any (i) Organic Change or (ii) other Organic Change following which the Company is not a surviving entity, the Company will secure from the Person purchasing such assets or the successor resulting from such Organic Change (in each case, the "Acquiring Entity") a written agreement (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder) to deliver to Holder in exchange for this Note, a security of the Acquiring Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Note, and reasonably satisfactory to the Holder. Prior to the consummation of any other Organic Change, the Company shall make appropriate provision (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holders of a majority of the Conversion Amount of the Notes then outstanding) to ensure that each of the Holders will thereafter have the right to acquire and receive in lieu of or in addition to (as the case may be) the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon the conversion of such Holder's Note, such shares of stock, securities or assets that would have been issued or payable in such Organic Change with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares of Common Stock which would have been acquirable and receivable upon the conversion of such Holder's Note as of the date of such Organic Change (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of the Note).
(b). Security Interest. None.
4. Reservation of Shares.

In the event of a conversion or redemption pursuant to this Note of less than all of the Conversion Amount represented by this Note, the Company shall promptly cause to be issued and delivered to the Holder, upon tender by the Holder of the Note converted or redeemed, a new note of like tenor representing the remaining principal amount of this Note which has not been so converted or redeemed and which is in substantially the same form as this Note.
