Section 1. General. For value received, SPINAL STABILIZATION TECHNOLOGIES, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (the “Company”), hereby promises to pay to the order of _________, or [his/her/its] permitted assigns (the “Holder”), the aggregate principal amount of _________ ($_________) (the “Principal Amount”) of this Convertible Note (this “Note”), subject to the terms and conditions herein. If any payment on this Note becomes due and payable on a day other than a business day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding business day. The outstanding Principal Amount of this Note shall not bear interest.

The Company may enter into convertible notes substantially similar to this Note (collectively with this Note, the “Convertible Notes”).

Section 2. Payments; Conversion.

(a) The Principal Amount shall be due and payable on March 31, 2024 (the “Maturity Date”) unless converted on or prior to the Maturity Date as provided herein. All payments made under this Note shall be made in US dollars in immediately available funds.

(b) Upon the consummation of a Qualified Financing (as defined below), the Principal Amount shall automatically, and without notice or any further action by any party, convert into the Equity Securities (as defined below) being issued by the Company at the Conversion Price (as defined below), and otherwise on the same terms as those received by the purchaser of such Equity Securities in the Qualified Financing. The number of Equity Securities issuable upon conversion of this Note shall equal the Principal Amount divided by the Conversion Price.

(c) If the Company consummates a Change of Control (as defined below), Holder shall have the option of either (i) having 200% of the outstanding principal balance of this Note, repaid in full prior to the Change of Control, or (ii) converting the outstanding principal balance of this Note into Class B2 Units of the Company at a conversion price equal to the Conversion Price. If Holder does not give notice of its election at least five (5) business days prior to the closing of the Change of Control, then Holder shall be deemed to have elected to proceed under clause (ii). For purposes of this Note, a “Change of Control” shall mean (i) a consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other corporation or other entity or person, or any other corporate reorganization, other than any such consolidation, merger or reorganization in which the shares of capital stock of the Company immediately prior to such consolidation, merger or reorganization, continue to represent a majority of the voting power of the surviving entity immediately after such consolidation, merger or reorganization; (ii) a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or (iii) any transaction or series of related transactions to which the Company is a party in which in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the Company’s voting power is transferred; provided that a Change of Control shall not include any transaction or series of transactions principally for bona fide equity financing purposes in which cash is received by the Company or any successor or indebtedness of the Holder is cancelled or converted or a combination thereof; provided further, however, that a Change of Control shall not include a SPAC Acquisition (as defined below).

(d) Upon the consummation of a SPAC Acquisition, the Principal Amount shall automatically, and without notice or any further action by any party, convert into the right to receive the same consideration that Holder would have received in the SPAC Acquisition if this Note had converted into Class B2 Units of the Company at the applicable Conversion Price immediately prior to the consummation of the SPAC Acquisition, and otherwise on the same terms as those received by the holders of Class B2 Units of the Company in the SPAC Acquisition.

(e) [Reserved]

(f) In connection with conversion of the Note pursuant to this Section 2, the Holder shall surrender this Note, duly endorsed without recourse, representation or warranty, at the principal office of the Company, in exchange for the consideration payable to the Holder hereunder. Upon such conversion pursuant, the Holder hereby agrees to execute and deliver to the Company all transaction documents entered into by other purchasers participating in the SPAC Acquisition or the Qualified Financing, as applicable.

the indebtedness evidenced by this Note, at the option of the Holder, shall become due and payable upon demand; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, Holder agrees that Holder will exercise Holder’s rights and remedies under this Note and related documents only in concert with the Requisite Noteholders. Any such event is a “Default” under this Note.

Thereupon, a new note for the same principal amount will be issued to, and registered in the name of, the transferee. Principal is payable only to the registered holder of this Note. The terms and conditions of this Note shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective successors and assigns of the parties.

Section 10. No Voting or Other Rights. This Note does not entitle Holder to any voting rights or other rights as an equity holder of the Company unless and until conversion.
