Related to DIVIDENDS PAYOUT

• Dividends, Etc The Company shall not declare or pay any dividend of any kind, in cash or in property, on any class of its capital stock, nor purchase, redeem, retire or otherwise acquire for value any shares of such stock, nor make any distribution of any kind in respect thereof, nor make any return of capital to shareholders, nor make any payments in respect of any pension, profit sharing, retirement, stock option, stock bonus, incentive compensation or similar plan (except as required or permitted hereunder), without the prior written consent of the Secured Party.

• Stock Dividends, etc In the event of a stock split, stock dividend or distribution, or any change in the Common Stock by reason of any split-up, reverse stock split, recapitalization, combination, reclassification, exchange of shares or the like, the terms “Existing Shares” and “Covered Shares” shall be deemed to refer to and include such shares as well as all such stock dividends and distributions and any securities into which or for which any or all of such shares may be changed or exchanged or which are received in such transaction.

• Dividends or Distributions (a) Subject to the prior and superior rights of the holders of shares of any other series of Preferred Stock or other class of capital stock of the Corporation ranking prior and superior to the shares of Series A Preferred Stock with respect to dividends, the holders of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, out of the assets of the Corporation legally available therefor, (1) quarterly dividends payable in cash on the last day of each fiscal quarter in each year, or such other dates as the Board of Directors of the Corporation shall approve (each such date being referred to herein as a "Quarterly Dividend Payment Date"), commencing on the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date after the first issuance of a share or a fraction of a share of Series A Preferred Stock, in the amount of $.01 per whole share (rounded to the nearest cent) less the amount of all cash dividends declared on the Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to the following clause (2) since the immediately preceding Quarterly Dividend Payment Date or, with respect to the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, since the first issuance of any share or fraction of a share of Series A Preferred Stock (the total of which shall not, in any event, be less than zero) and (2) dividends payable in cash on the payment date for each cash dividend declared on the Common Stock in an amount per whole share (rounded to the nearest cent) equal to the Formula Number (as hereinafter defined) then in effect times the cash dividends then to be paid on each share of Common Stock. In addition, if the Corporation shall pay any dividend or make any distribution on the Common Stock payable in assets, securities or other forms of noncash consideration (other than dividends or distributions solely in shares of Common Stock), then, in each such case, the Corporation shall simultaneously pay or make on each outstanding whole share of Series A Preferred Stock a dividend or distribution in like kind equal to the Formula Number then in effect times such dividend or distribution on each share of the Common Stock. As used herein, the "Formula Number" shall be 1,000; provided, however, that, if at any time after the Record Date, the Corporation shall (i) declare or pay any dividend on the 49 Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock or make any distribution on the Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivide (by a stock split or otherwise) the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common Stock or (iii) combine (by a reverse stock split or otherwise) the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, then in each such event the Formula Number shall be adjusted to a number determined by multiplying the Formula Number in effect immediately prior to such event by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that are outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that are outstanding immediately prior to such event (and rounding the result to the nearest whole number); and provided further, that, if at any time after the Record Date, the Corporation shall issue any shares of its capital stock in a merger, reclassification, or change of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, then in each such event the Formula Number shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect such merger, reclassification or change so that each share of Preferred Stock continues to be the economic equivalent of a Formula Number of shares of Common Stock prior to such merger, reclassification or change.

• Dividends and Related Distributions The Borrowers shall not, and shall not permit any of their Subsidiaries to, make or pay, or agree to become or remain liable to make or pay, any dividend or other distribution of any nature (whether in cash, property, securities or otherwise) on account of or in respect of its shares of capital stock or partnership or limited liability company interest or on account of the purchase, redemption, retirement or acquisition of its shares of capital stock (or warrants, options or rights therefor) or partnership or limited liability company interests, except

• Cash Dividends or Distributions If any cash dividend or distribution is made to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock, then the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula: where: CR0 = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately before the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; CR1 = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date; SP = the Last Reported Sale Price per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately before such Ex-Dividend Date; and D = the cash amount distributed per share of Common Stock in such dividend or distribution; provided, however, that if D is equal to or greater than SP, then, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment to the Conversion Rate, each Holder will receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes held by such Holder on the record date for such dividend or distribution, at the same time and on the same terms as holders of Common Stock, and without having to convert its Notes, the amount of cash that such Holder would have received if such Holder had owned, on such record date, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on such record date. To the extent such dividend or distribution is declared but not made or paid, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the adjustment been made on the basis of only the dividend or distribution, if any, actually made or paid.

• Liquidating Dividends, Etc If the Company at any time while this Option is outstanding and unexpired makes a distribution of its assets to the holders of its Capital Stock as a dividend in liquidation or by way of return of capital or other than as a dividend payable out of earnings or surplus legally available for dividends under applicable law or any distribution to such holders made in respect of the sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets (other than under the circumstances provided for in the foregoing subsections (a) through (c)), the holder of this Option shall be entitled to receive upon the exercise hereof, in addition to the shares of Common Stock receivable upon such exercise, and without payment of any consideration other than the exercise price, an amount in cash equal to the value of such distribution per share of Common Stock multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock which, on the record date for such distribution, are issuable upon exercise of this Option (with no further adjustment being made following any event which causes a subsequent adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise hereof), and an appropriate provision therefor should be made a part of any such distribution. The value of a distribution which is paid in other than cash shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.

• Share Dividends; Split Ups If, after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Section 6.3 below, the number of outstanding Shares is increased by a stock dividend payable in Shares or by a split up of Shares or other similar event, then, on the effective day thereof, the number of Shares purchasable hereunder shall be increased in proportion to such increase in outstanding Shares, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased.

• Stock Dividends, Splits If, after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Section 4.5 below, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, or by a forward or reverse split of shares of Common Stock, or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such stock dividend, split or similar event, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of each Warrant shall be increased or decreased in proportion to such increase or decrease in outstanding shares of Common Stock. A rights offering to all holders of the shares of Common Stock entitling holders to purchase shares of Common Stock at a price less than the Fair Market Value shall be deemed a stock dividend of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for the shares of Common Stock) multiplied by (ii) one (1) minus the quotient of (x) the price per share of Common Stock paid in such rights offering divided by (y) the Fair Market Value. For purposes of this subsection 4.1, if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, in determining the price payable for the shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion.

• Dividends So long as any shares of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock will be outstanding, the holders of the Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive cumulative preferential dividends accruing at the LIBOR Rate on the value of $100.00 per share, payable quarterly on the 1st day of March, June, September and December of each year, beginning December 1, 1997 (each date being called a "Dividend Payment Date"), the dividends to be cumulative and payable as allowed by the Nevada Business Corporation Act, Chapter 78, Nevada Revised Statutes, with respect to the quarterly dividend period (or portion of it) ending on the day preceding the respective Dividend Payment Date, fixed for that purpose by the Board in advance of payment of each particular dividend. The LIBOR Rate shall mean the rate (rounded, if necessary, to the next higher 1/100 of 1%) for deposits in United States Dollars for a maturity of three months which appears on the Telerate Page 3750 at approximately 11:00 a.m. London time representing the offered side of dollar deposits in the London market two (2) London business days prior to the effective date of the applicable LIBOR Rate. The LIBOR Rate shall be presumed to be the three months London Interbank Offered Rates as shown in the Wall Street Journal under "Money Rates" as long as such rates are published. The LIBOR Rate will be fixed on the Original Issue Date and thereafter be changed at every Dividend Payment Date to be effective until the next Dividend Payment Date. The "Original Issue Date" means the first date on which the Corporation will issue any shares of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock. Dividends on the Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock shall be cumulative from the Original Issue Date (whether or not declared and whether or not in any dividend period or dividend periods there will be net profits or net assets of the Corporation legally available for the payment of those dividends). So long as any shares of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock shall remain outstanding, the Corporation may not declare or pay any dividend, make a distribution, or purchase, acquire, redeem, or set aside or make monies available for a sinking fund for the purchase or redemption of, any shares of stock of the Corporation ranking junior to the Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock with respect to the payment of dividends or the distribution of assets on liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation including Common Stock, par value $.01, of the Corporation ("junior stock") (other than as a result of a reclassification of junior stock into another class of junior stock, or the exchange or conversion of one junior stock for or into another junior stock) unless (i) all dividends in respect of the Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock for all past dividend periods have been paid and such dividends for the current dividend period have been paid or declared and duly provided for, and (ii) all amounts in respect of the mandatory redemption of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock pursuant to the terms of paragraph 5 below have been paid for all prior applicable periods and all amounts in respect of such mandatory redemption for the current applicable period have been paid or duly provided for. Subject to the foregoing, and not otherwise, the dividends (payable in cash, stock or otherwise) as may be determined by the Board may be declared and paid on any junior stock from time to time out of any funds legally available, and the Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock will not be entitled to participate in any such dividends, whether payable in cash, stock or otherwise. Liquidation Rights. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock then outstanding are entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its shareholders, whether such assets are capital, surplus or earnings, before any payment or declaration and setting apart for payment of any amount will be made in respect of any shares of any junior stock with respect to the payment of dividends or distribution of assets on liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, an amount equal to $100 per share plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends (including a prorated quarterly dividend from the last Dividend Payment Date to the date of such payment) in respect of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up consummated. If upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, the assets to be distributed among the holders of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to permit the payment to the shareholders of the full preferential amounts aforesaid, then the entire assets of the Corporation to be distributed shall be distributed ratably among the holders of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock based on the full preferential amounts for the number of shares of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock. A consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into any other corporation or corporations in which the stockholders of the Corporation receive solely capital stock of the acquiring or surviving corporation (or of the direct or indirect parent corporation of the acquiring corporation), except for cash in lieu of fractional shares, will not be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Corporation as those terms are used in this Certificate. Mandatory Redemption. The Corporation will, at the redemption price equal to $100 per share plus an amount, payable in cash, equal to the sum of all accumulated and unpaid dividends per share (including a prorated quarterly dividend from the last Dividend Payment Date to the applicable Redemption Date) (the "Redemption Price"), redeem from any source of funds legally available therefor, the amount of shares of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock outstanding on the date set forth on the Redemption Schedule attached to this Certificate. Redemption Date shall be the date on which any shares of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock are redeemed by the Corporation. This Certificate shall be notice of this mandatory redemption on the dates specified on the Redemption Schedule, and any further notice is waived by acceptance of this Certificate. If the Corporation's records show there is more than one holder of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock, the Corporation will effect the redemption pro rata according to the number of shares held by each holder of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock shown on the books of the Corporation. On or before the date fixed for redemption, each holder of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock will surrender the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock to the Corporation and the Redemption Price for the shares will be paid in cash on the Redemption Date to the person whose name appears on the certificate or certificates as the owner, and each surrendered certificate will be canceled and retired. In the event that less than all of the shares represented by any certificate are redeemed, a new certificate will be issued representing the unredeemed shares. Unless the Corporation defaults in the payment in full of the Redemption Price, dividends on the Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock called for redemption will cease to accumulate on the Redemption Date, and all rights of the holders of the shares redeemed will cease to have any further rights with respect to the shares on the Redemption Date, other than to receive the Redemption Price.

• Stock Dividends - Split-Ups If after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Section 4.6 below, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, or by a split-up of shares of Common Stock, or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such stock dividend, split-up or similar event, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of each Warrant shall be increased in proportion to such increase in outstanding shares of Common Stock.
