CHANGE IN PAYMENT TERMS
2.1 Change in the Payment Terms
From and after the date set forth above, the Vendors hereby agree,
notwithstanding any other provision of the Share Purchase Agreement, to accept
the Settlement Consideration as full and final consideration for the Purchased
Shares, in lieu of the Obligations which remains currently payable under the
Share Purchase Agreement. The Settlement Consideration shall be paid to the
Vendors in 43 equal monthly instalments as follows: (a) on the first business
day of each calendar month (a "Payment Date") commencing August 1, 2006 and
continuing for 42 months thereafter the amount of $50,000 in cash. In addition,
an commencing on the earlier of: (i) November 1, 2006; or (ii) the effective
date of the registration statement filed by Purchaser in connection with Section
2.3(a) below, and continuing for 42 months thereafter the amount of $35,000 in
shares of the Purchaser's common stock (each share a "Consideration Share",
collectively the "Consideration Shares"). The obligation of the Purchaser to
issue and deliver the Consideration Shares to the Vendors is hereinafter
referred to as the ("Share Payment Obligation"). Purchaser shall not pay Vendors
any interest on the Settlement Consideration or with respect to the payments set
forth in this section. Vendors expressly agree and acknowledge that, except as
set forth in this Agreement, Purchaser shall have no further payment obligations
to Vendors, including, but not limited to those obligations set forth in Article
2 of the Share Purchase Agreement.
In the event that the registration statement filed by Purchaser (as set forth
below) is not effective at the time that the first or any subsequent Share
Payment Obligation is due, Purchaser shall pay the Share Payment Obligation by
paying to the Vendors the sum of $35,000 cash.
2.2 Consideration Shares. The number of Consideration Shares to be delivered
on each Payment Date shall be the number of Consideration Shares determined by
dividing the payment amount of $35,000 per Payment Date by the average closing
bid price for the Purchaser's common stock, as quoted by NASDAQ or an equivalent
quotation system, for the five (5) trading days that immediately precede the
relevant Payment Date (the "Deemed Share Price").
3
2.3 Registration Rights
(a) Following execution of this Agreement, the Purchaser will use its
best efforts and shall promptly (the "Registration Period") prepare
and file a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1993,
as amended, or any successor federal statute, and the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission promulgated
thereunder, all as the same shall be in effect from time to time
(the "Securities Act") on any form that will permit the registration
of up to 16,000,000 Consideration Shares, or such amount of
Consideration Shares of the Purchaser sufficient to satisfy the
Purchaser's Share Payment Obligation to the Vendors. The
aforementioned registration statement shall be effective for the
entire time period during which Purchaser owes Vendors the
Consideration Shares. In the event that said registration statement
is not effective during a time period when Purchaser owes Vendors
the Consideration Shares, then Purchaser shall pay the Share Payment
Obligation by paying to the Vendors the sum of $35,000 cash (for
each period where such a payment is due). To the extent that
Purchaser pays the Vendors in cash, such payment shall reduce the
amount of Settlement Consideration owed by the Purchaser to the
Vendors.
(b) If at anytime the Purchaser determines to file a registration
statement under the Securities Act on any form that would also
permit the registration of up to 16,000,000 Consideration Shares, or
such amount of Consideration Shares of the Purchaser sufficient to
satisfy the Purchaser's Share Payment Obligation to the Vendors,
other than by a registration in connection with an acquisition in a
manner which would not permit registration of registrable securities
for sale to the public, on Form S-8, or any successor form thereto,
or on Form S-4, or any successor form thereto, and such filing is to
be on its behalf and/or on behalf of selling holders of its
securities for general registration of common stock to be sold for
cash pursuant to a public offering, the Purchaser shall promptly
give the Vendors written notice of such determination setting forth
the date on which the Purchaser proposes to file such registration
statement, which date shall be no earlier than thirty (30) days
after the date of such notice, and advising the Vendors of their
right to have the Consideration Shares included in such
registration. Upon the written request of the Vendors received by
the Purchaser no later than ten (10) days after the date of the
Purchaser's notice (which request shall specify the registrable
securities intended to be disposed of by such holders of registrable
securities and the intended method of disposition thereof), the
Purchaser shall use its best efforts to cause to be registered under
the Securities Act and included in such public offering all of the
Consideration Shares that the Vendors have so requested to be
registered. The Vendors may only exercise the aforementioned right
once.
(c) If, in the written opinion of the managing underwriter (or, in the
case of a non-underwritten offering, in the written opinion of the
Purchaser), the total amount of such securities to be so registered,
including such Consideration Shares, will exceed the maximum amount
of the Purchaser's securities which can be marketed: (i) at a price
reasonably related to the then current market value of such
securities; or (ii) without otherwise materially and adversely
affecting the entire offering; then the Purchaser shall be entitled
to reduce the number of Consideration Shares; provided however that
in any such case the number of shares of securities to be registered
on behalf of all other selling stockholders is reduced on a pro rata
basis based on the aggregate number of securities owned by each
selling stockholder at the time of filing the registration
statement.
4
(d) The Purchaser has right to designate CIBC Wood Gundy, 1250
Xxxx-Xxxxxxxx Blvd. West, Suite 3100, Montreal, Xxxxxx, X0X 0X0,
Xxxxxx, or such other broker as the Purchaser may reasonably select,
as the broker (the "Broker") that will sell the Consideration
Shares. Purchaser further undertakes to have the Broker sell the
Consideration Shares within ninety (90) days after the Vendors place
the Consideration Shares with the Broker (the "Share Sale Time
Period"). Vendors agree to use the Broker to sell the Consideration
Shares. In addition, the Vendors agree to place said Consideration
Shares with the Broker immediately after the issuance of the
Consideration Shares to the Vendors. In the event that said
Consideration Shares have not been sold prior to the expiration of
the Share Sale Time Period, then the Vendors may notify Purchaser
that they desire to cancel the remaining Consideration Shares and
instead request that Purchaser make cash payment(s) to Vendors with
respect to the remaining Consideration Shares. For clarity, this
provision only relates to the Consideration Shares not sold within
the Share Sale Time Period and not to future payments (which may be
made by the Purchaser with Consideration Shares)
(e) All expenses incurred by the Purchaser in connection with the
foregoing registrations, including, without limitation, all
registration, filing and qualification fees, blue sky fees and
expenses, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for
the Purchaser, expenses of any special audits incidental to or
required by such registration will be borne by the Corporation. All
selling expenses, including any and all fees, commissions, discounts
or similar payments made to any broker or dealer in connection with
the sale of any securities shall be borne by the holder of such
securities.
2.4 Other Provisions Unchanged
Except for agreements expressly made by this Agreement with respect to the
satisfaction of the Obligations through the payment of the Settlement
Consideration as herein provided, all other provisions of the Share Purchase
Agreement shall remain and continue to have full force and effect as set forth
therein.
