FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, UNIVERSAL BUSINESS PAYMENT SOLUTIONS ACQUISITION CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) with its principal place of business at Radnor Financial Center, Suite F-200, Radnor, PA 19087, promises to pay to the order of [ ], or its registered transferees or assigns (the “Payee”), the principal sum of [ ] Dollars ($[ ]) together with simple interest on the unpaid principal balance from time to time outstanding, computed from the date of original issuance of this Note, at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum, on the basis of a 365-day year, until paid in full; provided, however that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined below), this Note will bear interest at a rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum as measured from the date of the occurrence of such Event of Default. Interest shall be payable in cash on a quarterly basis in arrears within five (5) business days of the end of each calendar quarter commencing on the completion of the first full calendar quarter following the Closing Date.

 

1.          Notes. This Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note”) is issued as a part of a series of similar notes issued by the Company in the aggregate principal amount of up to Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) pursuant to a certain Secured Convertible Note Agreement, dated as of December __, 2012, by and among the Company, the Payee and any other Purchaser named therein (the “Note Agreement”) (together, all such notes sometimes referred to as the “Notes”). The Note Agreement is incorporated by reference herein.

 

2.          Payment and Interest. Subject to earlier conversion or repayment as provided in Sections 3 and 4 below, the outstanding principal amount of the Note, along with any and all accrued but unpaid interest hereunder, shall become due and payable on the earliest to occur of (i) December 31, 2014 (the “Maturity Date”), (ii) a Qualified Financing (as defined in Section 3 below), or (iii) an Event of Default (as defined in Section 4 below). All payments hereunder, whether for principal, interest or otherwise shall be made in immediately available United States funds sent to the Payee at the address set forth for the Payee in the preamble to this Note or such other address furnished in writing to the Company for that purpose or by wire-transfer to an account specified in writing by Payee. Interest hereunder shall accrue on the outstanding principal amount of this Note from the Closing Date until the earlier of (a) the repayment in full of the principal amount hereunder and the payment of all accrued but unpaid interest hereunder or (b) the earlier conversion of the outstanding principal amount hereunder and all accrued but unpaid interest hereunder in accordance with Section 3 below. All payments received by the Payee will be applied first to costs of collection, if any, then to interest, and the balance to principal. Capitalized terms used herein without definition are used herein with the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Note Agreement.

 

 
 

 

3.          Optional Conversion.

 

(a)          Upon the election of the Payee, (i) following the consummation (the “Closing”) of the transactions contemplated by each of (A) the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 6, 2012, as amended, by and among the Company, JP Merger Sub, LLC, WLES, L.P. and certain other parties thereto and (B) the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 6, 2012, as amended, by and among the Company, ADC Merger Sub, Inc., AD Computer Corporation, Payroll Tax Filing Services, Inc., and certain other stockholders party thereto and (ii) prior to the Maturity Date, all or any portion, of the unpaid principal and accrued interest under the Note shall convert into a number of shares of Common Stock of the Company, par value $0.001, (the “Financing Stock”) and shall be appropriately adjusted in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, consolidations, reclassifications and combinations. equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the amount of the unpaid principal and accrued interest on the Note that the Purchaser elects to convert, by (ii) $5.15 (subject to any adjustments as set forth herein, including for the avoidance of doubt, Section 4.5 of the Note Agreement), with any resulting fraction of a share being rounded downward to the nearest whole share and with the Company paying the Payee any remaining amount of unpaid principal or interest not converted into such whole number of shares.

.

(b)          If the Payee elects to convert all of the unpaid principal and accrued interest under the Note in accordance with Section 3(a), then the Payee shall, following the Closing and at least ten (10) business days prior to the Maturity Date, deliver a written notice to the Company indicating the Payee’s election to convert this Note pursuant to Section 3(a). In the event of a conversion of this Note pursuant to Section 3(a), the Payee shall (i) surrender this Note to the Company for cancellation and exchange into the Financing Stock, and (ii) execute and deliver all agreements, documents, instruments and certificates, as may be reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the conversion of this Note. At the time of conversion of this Note, the Company will issue to the Payee, or its registered nominee or assigns, certificate(s) for the number of shares of Financing Stock, into which this Note is then convertible, with any resulting fraction of a share being rounded downward to the nearest whole share, and the Company will pay to the Payee cash for the amounts not so converted as a result of the above-referenced downward rounding. The issuance of certificate(s) for shares of the Financing Stock, shall be made without charge to the Payee for any issuance tax in respect thereof or other cost incurred by the Company in connection with such conversion and the related issuance of the Financing Stock. Upon conversion of this Note, the Company shall take all such actions as are necessary in order to ensure that the Financing Stock issuable with respect to such conversion shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

(c)          For purposes of this Note, “Qualified Financing” shall mean the sale and issuance by the Company of capital stock or subordinated debt following the date hereof and prior to the Maturity Date in a net amount (after payment of any reasonable expenses, including placement agent fees, if any, related to such sale and issuance) to the Company greater than Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000).

 

(d)        (i)       If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the date hereof, effect a split or combination of the Common Stock of the Company affecting the Financing Stock (or pay a stock dividend), then the number of shares of Financing Stock shall be proportionately adjusted. Any such adjustments shall be effective at the close of business on the date the split or combination becomes effective or the date of payment of the dividend, as applicable. 

 

    (ii)       Merger Sale, Reclassification, Etc.  In case of any (A) consolidation or merger (including a merger in which the Company is the surviving entity), (B) sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or distribution of property to members (other than distributions payable out of earnings or retained earnings), or reclassification, change or conversion of the outstanding securities of the Company or of any reorganization of the Company (or any other company the stock or securities of which are at the time receivable upon the conversion of this Note) or any similar corporate reorganization on or after the date hereof, then and in each such case the Payee of this Note, upon the exercise of the Note, shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the Financing Stock, the number of shares of Financing Stock to which such Payee would have been entitled upon such consummation if such Payee had exercised this Note immediately prior thereto."

 

   (iii)        Share Issuance. If at any time following the delivery of this Note the Company shall have issued shares of Common Stock or securities issuable or convertible into shares of Common Stock at a price below $5.15 per share (which for the avoidance of doubt shall be measured by taking into account any transfers of Common Stock from existing stockholders of the Company to the recipient of such issuances at a price below $5.15 per share), the Conversion Price shall be such lower price and shall be the basis for any further adjustments as set forth herein.
