the notice of exercise of the Put Right, and may pay for the shares in cash, with a promissory note or with a combination of cash
and a promissory note. Any such consideration subject to the note would be amortized over a 3-year period to maturity and shall
bear interest at the greater of (x) 10% or (y) the prime interest rate published by the Wall Street Journal on the closing date,
