Annex
A
(a
“Notice
of Conversion”)
executed by the Holder, together with the delivery by the Holder to the Company
of this Note, with this Note being duly endorsed in full for transfer to the
Company or with an applicable stock power duly executed by the Holder in the
manner and form as deemed reasonable by the transfer agent of the Common Stock.
Each Notice of Conversion shall specify the principal amount of this Note to
be
converted, the principal amount of this Note outstanding prior to the conversion
at issue, the principal amount of this Note owned subsequent to the conversion
at issue, and the date on which such conversion is to be effected, which date
may not be prior to the date the Holder delivers such Notice of Conversion
to
the Company by overnight delivery service or by telecopier or PDF (the
“Conversion
Date”).
If no
Conversion Date is specified in a Notice of Conversion, the Conversion Date
shall be the Trading Day immediately preceding the date that such Notice of
Conversion and applicable stock certificates are received by the Company. The
calculations and entries set forth in the Notice of Conversion shall control
in
the absence of manifest or mathematical error. The principal amount of this
Note

(ii) Except
as
otherwise set forth herein, not later than three Trading Days after each
Conversion Date (the “Share

the
Company shall deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates which, after
the Effective Date, shall be free of restrictive legends and trading
restrictions (other than those required by the Agreement and the Securities
Act)
representing the number of shares of Common Stock being acquired upon the
conversion of this Note. After the effective date of the Registration Statement,
the Company shall, upon request of the Holder, deliver any certificate or
certificates required to be delivered by the Company under this Section

case

to or as directed by the applicable Holder by the third Trading Day after the
Conversion Date, the Holder shall be entitled to elect by written notice to
the
Company at any time on or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates
thereafter, to rescind such conversion, in which event the Company shall

5
(iii) The
Company’s obligations to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion
of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional,
irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any
waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any
judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff,
counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged
breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or
any
violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other person, and
irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such
obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of
such
Conversion Shares. In the event a Holder shall elect to convert any or all
of
this Note, the Company may not refuse conversion based on any claim that such
Holder or any one associated or affiliated with the Holder of has been engaged
in any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason unless, an injunction
from a court, on notice, restraining and or enjoining conversion of all or
part
of this Note shall have been sought and obtained and the Company posts a surety
bond for the benefit of the Holder in the amount of 150% of the Conversion
Value
of the principal amount of the Note outstanding (i.e.,
the
value of the shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of such principal
amount of this Note) which is subject to the injunction, which bond shall remain
in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the dispute and
the
proceeds of which shall be payable to such Holder to the extent it obtains
judgment. In the absence of an injunction precluding the same, the Company
shall
issue Conversion Shares upon a properly noticed conversion.
(iv) If
the
Company fails to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates pursuant
to Section 3(c)(ii) by a Share Delivery Date, and if after such Share Delivery
Date the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Common
Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Holder of the Conversion
Shares which the Holder was entitled to receive upon the conversion relating
to
such Share Delivery Date (a “Buy-In”),
then
the Company shall pay in cash to the Holder the amount by which (x) the Holder’s
total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Common
Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (I) the aggregate number of shares
of Common Stock that such Holder was entitled to receive from the conversion
at
issue multiplied by (II) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such
purchase obligation was executed. For example, if the Holder purchases Common
Stock having a total purchase price of US$11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect
to an attempted conversion of a portion of this Note with respect to which
the
aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation is US$10,000,
under
clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required
to pay the Holder US$1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice
indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In, together
with applicable confirmations and other evidence reasonably requested by the
Company. Nothing herein shall limit a Xxxxxx’s right to pursue any other
remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without
limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with
respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing
shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note as required pursuant to
the
terms hereof.

of Share of Common Stock.
The
Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out
of
its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock solely for the purpose of

rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of persons other than
the
Holders, not less than such number of shares of the Common Stock as shall
(subject to any additional requirements of the Company as to reservation of
such
shares set forth in the Agreement) be issuable upon the conversion of this
Note.
The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable
shall, upon issue, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid,
non-assessable.
(e) Fractional
Shares.
Upon a
conversion hereunder, the Company shall not be required to issue stock
certificates representing fractions of shares of the Common Stock. All
fractional shares shall be carried forward and any fractional shares which
remain after the Holder converts the full principal amount of this Note shall
be
dropped and eliminated.
(f) Transfer
Taxes.
The
issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on conversion of this
Note shall be made without charge to the Holders thereof for any documentary
stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery
of such certificate, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay
any
tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance
and
delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name other than that
of
the Holder, and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such
certificates unless or until the person or persons requesting the issuance
thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have
established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been
paid.
(g) Absolute
Obligation.
Except
as expressly provided herein, no provision of this Note shall alter or impair
the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay
the
liquidated damages (if any) on, this Note at the time, place, and rate, and
in
the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
(h) Certain
Adjustments.
(i) Stock
Dividends and Stock Splits.
If the
Company, at any time from and after the Closing Date, while this Note is
outstanding: (A) shall pay a stock dividend or otherwise make a distribution
or
distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity
equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance
of
doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company
pursuant to this Note), (B) subdivide outstanding shares of Common Stock into
a
larger number of shares, (C) combine (including by way of reverse stock split)
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (D)
issue
by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock
of
the Company, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of
which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding
treasury shares, if any) outstanding before such event and the denominator
shall
be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any)
outstanding after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section
3(h)(i) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the
determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution
and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case
of a
subdivision, combination or re-classification.
7
(ii) Issuance
of Common Stock Equivalents.
If the
Company, at any time while this Note is outstanding, issues Common Stock
Equivalents to holders of shares of Common Stock entitling them to subscribe
for
or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share (or a conversion price
per share) less than the Conversion Price on the date of issuance of such Common
Stock Equivalents, the Conversion Price shall be decreased by multiplying the
Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the such date of issuance by
a
fraction, of which: (A) the numerator shall be the sum of (x) the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance, plus
(y)
the total number of shares of Common Stock that the aggregate offering price
of
the total number of shares of Common Stock offered for subscription or purchase
(or the aggregate conversion price of such Convertible Securities) would
purchase at the Conversion Price on the date of such issuance; and (B) the
denominator shall be the sum of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such issuance, plus (y) the number of
additional shares of Common Stock offered for subscription or purchase (or
into
which such Convertible Securities could be converted). For purposes of this
Section, the term “Common
Stock Equivalents”
shall
mean means any rights, warrants or options to subscribe for or purchase shares
of Common
Stock or
securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common
Stock.
(iii) Cash
Dividends or Distributions
If the
Company, at any time while this Note is outstanding, makes a dividend or
distribution consisting exclusively of cash to holders of the Common Stock,
the
Conversion Price shall be decreased by multiplying the Conversion Price in
effect on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to
such
distribution by a fraction, of which: (A) the numerator shall be the Conversion
Price on such record date less the amount of cash to be distributed per share
of
Common Stock; and (B) the denominator shall be the Conversion Price on such
record date.
(iv) Repurchases
If the
Company, at any time while this Note is outstanding, makes a payment in respect
of a repurchase (including by way of a tender or an exchange offer) of shares
of
Common Stock the consideration for which exceeds the Conversion Price
immediately prior to the announcement of such repurchase, the Conversion Price
shall be decreased by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately
prior to the announcement of such repurchase by a fraction, of which: (A) the
numerator shall be (x) the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
on
the date immediately prior to the announcement of such repurchase multiplied
by
the Conversion Price as of such date, minus (y) the aggregate consideration
paid
in connection with such repurchase; and (B) the denominator shall be the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the date immediately prior to the
announcement of such repurchase, minus the total number of shares of Common
Stock repurchased.
8
(v) Pro
Rata Distributions
If the
Company, at any time while this Note is outstanding, distributes to all holders
of Common Stock (and not to the Holders) evidences of its indebtedness, or
any
other securities or other assets (other than stock dividends described in
subsection (i) above, Common Stock Equivalents described in subsection (ii)
above and dividends and distributions paid exclusively in cash described in
subsection (iii) above) then in each such case the Conversion Price shall be
decreased by multiplying such Conversion Price in effect immediately prior
to
the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive
such
distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the Conversion
Price determined as of the record date for such distribution, and of which
the
numerator shall be such Conversion Price on such record date less the then
fair
market value at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence
of
indebtedness so distributed applicable to one (1) outstanding share of the
Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good
faith. Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made
and
shall become effective immediately after the record date mentioned above.
(vi) Price
Adjustment.
From
and after the Closing Date and until such time as this Note is no longer
outstanding, except for (a) Exempt Issuances, (b) issuances covered by Sections
3(h) of this Note, or (c) an issuance of Common Stock upon exercise or upon
conversion of warrants, options or other convertible securities for which an
adjustment has already been made pursuant to this Section 3(h) of this Note,
if
the Company closes on the sale or issuance of Common Stock at a price, or issues
Convertible Securities with a conversion price or exercise price per share
which
is less than the Conversion Price then in effect (such lower sales price,
conversion or exercise price, as the case may be, being referred to as the
“Lower
Price”),
the
Company shall issue to and each Holder shall receive such number of additional
shares of the Common Stock equal to the quotient of such Holder’s Investment
Amount divided by the Lower Price less the number of Notes such Investor
received on the Closing Date.

calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the
nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.

exercised.

Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is
effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property
(in any such case, a “Fundamental
Transaction”),
then
upon any subsequent conversion of this Note, the Holder shall have the right
to
receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such
conversion absent such Fundamental Transaction, the same kind and amount of
securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon
the
occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior
to
such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of one share of Common Stock (the
“Alternate
Consideration”).
For
purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Conversion Price
shall
be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on
the
amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common
Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the
Conversion Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner
reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate
Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the
securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then
the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration
it
receives upon any conversion of this Note following such Fundamental
Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions,
any
successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction
shall assume this Note.
(l) Ownership
Limitation
Notwithstanding
anything set forth in this Note, the Company shall not effect any conversion
of
this Note, and a Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of
this
Note, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise,
such Holder (together with such Holder’s affiliates, and any other person or
entity acting as a group together with such Holder or any of such Holder’s
affiliates), as set forth on the applicable Notice of Conversion, would
beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined
below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of
Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder and its affiliates shall include
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note
with
respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall
exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A)
exercise of the remaining, unconverted portion of this Note beneficially owned
by such Holder or any of its affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the
unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company
subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation
contained herein beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its
affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, beneficial
ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange
Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged
by a Holder that the Company is not representing to such Holder that such
calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and such
Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in
accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this
Section applies, the determination of whether this Note is convertible (in
relation to other securities owned by such Holder) and of which a portion of
this Note is convertible shall be in the sole discretion of a Holder, and the
submission of a Notice of Conversion shall be deemed to be each Holder’s
determination of whether this Note is convertible (in relation to other
securities owned by such Holder) and of which portion of this Note is
convertible, in each case subject to such aggregate percentage limitation,
and
the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such
determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as
contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of
the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes
of this Section, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common
Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock
as
reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, as the case
may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other
notice by the Company or the Company’s Transfer Agent setting forth the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of
a Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in
writing to such Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then
outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock
shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of
securities of the Company, including this Note, by such Holder or its affiliates
since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock
was
reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 9.99% of the number of
shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the
issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note. The
Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section may be waived by
such
Xxxxxx, at the election of such Holder, upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice
to the date of the particular Notice of Conversion which would result in the
Holder beneficially owning shares of Common Stock in excess of the Beneficial
Ownership Limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply
to
a successor holder of this Note.
