AMMOUNT $ 1,526,000 Number LN-1999-101
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, SWISSRAY INTERNATIONAL, INC., a New York corporation
(the "Company"), hereby promises to pay Parkdale LLC, LLC or registered
assigns (the "Holder") on November 11, 2001, (the "Maturity Date"), the
principal amount of One Million Five Hundred Twenty-Six Thousand ($
1,526,000) U.S., and to pay interest on the principal amount hereof, in
such amounts, at such times and on such terms and conditions as are
specified herein. The purchase price for this Debenture shall be deemed to
have been delivered to the Company upon non-payment of the full amount of
principal and interest due on the Promissory Note dated August 11, 1999
between the Company and the Holder. The fully executed Contingent
Subscription Agreement, Registration Rights Agreement and this Debenture
shall be held by the escrow agent and shall only be delivered to the Holder
upon non-payment of the full amount of principal and interest due on the
Promissory Note on its "Due Date". The "Due Date" of the Promissory Note
shall mean November 11, 1999.
Article 1. Interest
The Company shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of this
Debenture (the "Debenture") at the rate of Five Percent (5.0%) per year, payable
at the time of each conversion until the principal amount hereof is paid in full
or has been converted. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year
of 12, 30 day months. Each payment shall be paid in cash or in freely trading
Common Stock of the Company, at the Company's option. If paid in Common Stock,
the number of shares of the Company's Common Stock to be received shall be
determined by dividing the dollar amount of the interest by the then applicable
Market Price as of the interest payment date. "Market Price" shall mean 80% of
the average of the 10 day closing bid prices, as reported by Bloomberg, LP for
the ten (10) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date of
conversion. If the interest is to be paid in cash, the Company shall make such
payment within 5 business days of the date of conversion. If the interest is to
be paid in Common Stock, said Common Stock shall be delivered to the Holder, or
per Holder's instructions, within 5 business days of the date of conversion. The
Debentures are subject to automatic conversion at the end of two years from the
date of issuance at which time all Debentures outstanding will be automatically
converted based upon the formula set forth in Section 3.2. The closing shall be
deemed to have occurred on the Due Date as that term is defined above.
Article 2. Method of Payment
This Xxxxxxxxx must be surrendered to the Company in order for the
Holder to receive payment of the principal amount hereof. The Company shall have
the option of paying the interest on this Debenture in United States dollars or
in common stock upon conversion pursuant to Article 1 hereof. The Company may
draw a check for the payment of interest to the order of the Holder of this
Debenture and mail it to the Holder's address as shown on the Register (as
defined in Section 7.2 below). Interest and principal payments shall be subject
to withholding under applicable United States Federal Internal Revenue Service
Regulations.
Article 3. Conversion
Section 3.1. Conversion Privilege
(a) The Holder of this Debenture shall have the right, at its option,
to convert it into shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the
Company ("Common Stock") at any time following the Due Date and which is before
the close of business on the Maturity Date, except as set forth in Section 3.1
(c) below. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of
this Debenture is determined pursuant to Section 3.2 and rounding the result to
the nearest whole share.
(b) Less than all of the principal amount of this Debenture may be
converted into Common Stock if the portion converted is $5,000 or a whole
multiple of $5,000 and the provisions of this Article 3 that apply to the
conversion of all of the Debenture shall also apply to the conversion of a
portion of it. This Debenture may not be converted, whether in whole or in part,
except in accordance with Article 3.
(c) In the event all or any portion of this Debenture remains out-
standing on the second anniversary of the date hereof, the unconverted portion
of such Debenture will automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock on
such date in the manner set forth in Section 3.2.
Section 3.2. Conversion Procedure.
(a) Debentures. Upon receipt by the Company or its designated attorney
of a facsimile or original of Xxxxxx's signed Notice of Conversion and the
receipt of the original Debenture to be converted in whole or in part in the
manner set forth in 3.2(b) below, the Company shall instruct its transfer agent
to issue one or more Certificates representing that number of shares of Common
Stock into which the Debenture is convertible in accordance with the provisions
regarding conversion set forth in Exhibit A hereto. The Seller's transfer agent
or attorney shall act as Registrar and shall maintain an appropriate ledger
containing the necessary information with respect to each Debenture.
(b) Conversion Procedures. The face amount of this Debenture may be
converted anytime following the Due Date. Such conversion shall be effectuated
by surrendering to the Company, or its attorney, this Debenture to be converted
together with a facsimile or original of the signed Notice of Conversion which
evidences Xxxxxx's intention to convert the Debenture indicated. The date on
which the Notice of Conversion is effective ("Conversion Date") shall be deemed
to be the date on which the Holder has delivered to the Company or its
designated attorney a facsimile or original of the signed Notice of Conversion,
as long as the original Debenture(s) to be converted are received by the Company
or its designated attorney within 5 business days thereafter. Unless otherwise
notified by the Company in writing via facsimile the Company's designated
attorney is Xxxx X. Xxxxx, Esq., 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, 00xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx
Xxxx 00000, (P) 000-000-0000, (F) 000-000-0000.
(c) Common Stock to be Issued. Upon the conversion of any Debentures
and upon receipt by the Company or its attorney of a facsimile or original of
Xxxxxx's signed Notice of Conversion Seller shall instruct Seller's transfer
agent to issue Stock Certificates without restrictive legend or stop transfer
instructions, if at that time the Registration Statement covering such shares
has been deemed effective (or with proper restrictive legend if the Registration
Statement has not as yet been declared effective), in the name of Holder (or its
nominee) and in such denominations to be specified at conversion representing
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, as
applicable. Seller warrants that no instructions, other than these instructions,
have been given or will be given to the transfer agent and that the Common Stock
shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of Seller,
except as may be set forth herein.
(d) (i) Conversion Rate. Holder is entitled, at its option to convert
the face amount of this Debenture, plus accrued interest, anytime following the
Due Date, at 80% of the 10 day average closing bid price, as reported by
Bloomberg LP, for the ten (10) consecutive trading days immediately preceding
the applicable Conversion Date (the "Conversion Price"). No fractional shares or
scrip representing fractions of shares will be issued on conversion, but the
number of shares issuable shall be rounded up or down, as the case may be, to
the nearest whole share.
(ii) Most Favored Financing. If after the Due Date, but prior
to the Holder's conversion of all the Debentures, the Company raises money under
either Regulation D or Regulation S on terms that are more favorable than those
terms set forth in this Debenture, then in such event, the Holder at its sole
option shall be entitled to completely replace the terms of this Debenture with
the terms of the more beneficial Debenture as to that balance, including accrued
interest and any accumulated liquidated damages, remaining on Holder's original
investment. The Debentures are subject to a mandatory, 24 month conversion
feature at the end of which all Debentures outstanding will be automatically
converted, upon the terms set forth in this section ("Mandatory Conversion
Date").
(e) Nothing contained in this Debenture shall be deemed to
establish or require the payment of interest to the Holder at a rate in excess
of the maximum rate permitted by governing law. In the event that the rate of
interest required to be paid exceeds the maximum rate permitted by governing
law, the rate of interest required to be paid thereunder shall be automatically
reduced to the maximum rate permitted under the governing law and such excess
shall be returned with reasonable promptness by the Holder to the Company.
(f) It shall be the Company's responsibility to take all
necessary actions and to bear all such costs to issue the Certificate of Common
Stock as provided herein, including the responsibility and cost for delivery of
an opinion letter to the transfer agent, if so required. The person in whose
name the certificate of Common Stock is to be registered shall be treated as a
shareholder of record on and after the conversion date. Upon surrender of any
Debentures that are to be converted in part, the Company shall issue to the
Holder a new Debenture equal to the unconverted amount, if so requested in
writing by Xxxxxx.
(g) Within five (5) business days after receipt of the
documentation referred to above in Section 3.2(b), the Company shall deliver a
certificate, in accordance with Section 3(c) for the number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon the conversion. It shall be the Company's responsibility to
take all necessary actions and to bear all such costs to issue the Common Stock
as provided herein, including the cost for delivery of an opinion letter to the
transfer agent, if so required. The person in whose name the certificate of
Common Stock is to be registered shall be treated as a shareholder of record on
and after the conversion date. Upon surrender of any Debentures that are to be
converted in part, the Company shall issue to the Holder a new Debenture equal
to the unconverted amount, if so requested in writing by Xxxxxx.
In the event the Company does not make delivery of the Common Stock, as
instructed by Xxxxxx, within 8 business days after delivery of this original
Debenture, then in such event the Company shall pay to Holder an amount, in cash
in accordance with the following schedule, wherein "No. Business Days Late" is
defined as the number of business days beyond the 8 business days delivery
period.

3 $300
4 $400
5 $500

7 $700

9 $900
10 $1,000
>10 $1,000 + $200 for each
Business Day Beyond 10
The Company acknowledges that its failure to deliver the Common Stock
within 8 business days after the Conversion Date will cause the Holder to suffer
damages in an amount that will be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, the
parties agree that it is appropriate to include in this Debenture a provision
for liquidated damages. The parties acknowledge and agree that the liquidated
damages provision set forth in this section represents the parties' good faith
effort to qualify such damages and, as such, agree that the form and amount of
such liquidated damages are reasonable and will not constitute a penalty. The
payment of liquidated damages shall not relieve the Company from its obligations
to deliver the Common Stock pursuant to the terms of this Debenture.
To the extent that the failure of the Company to issue the Common Stock
pursuant to this Section 3.2(g) is due to the unavailability of authorized but
unissued shares of Common Stock, the provisions of this Section 3.2(g) shall not
apply but instead the provisions of Section 3.2(h) shall apply.
The Company shall make any payments incurred under this Section 3.2(g)
in immediately available funds within five (5) business days from the Conversion
Date if late. Nothing herein shall limit a Xxxxxx's right to pursue actual
damages or cancel the conversion for the Company's failure to issue and deliver
Common Stock to the Holder within 8 business days after the Conversion Date.
(h) The Company shall at all times reserve and have available
all Common Stock necessary to meet conversion of the Debentures by all Holders
of the entire amount of Debentures then outstanding. If, at any time Holder
submits a Notice of Conversion and the Company does not have sufficient
authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock (or alternative shares of Common
Stock as may be contributed by Stockholders) available to effect, in full, a
conversion of the Debentures (a "Conversion Default", the date of such default
being referred to herein as the "Conversion Default Date"), the Company shall
issue to the Holder all of the shares of Common Stock which are available, and
the Notice of Conversion as to any Debentures requested to be converted but not
converted (the "Unconverted Debentures"), upon Xxxxxx's sole option, may be
deemed null and void. The Company shall provide notice of such Conversion
Default ("Notice of Conversion Default") to all existing Holders of outstanding
Debentures, by facsimile, within three (3) business day of such default (with
the original delivered by overnight or two day courier), and the Holder shall
give notice to the Company by facsimile within five business days of receipt of
the original Notice of Conversion Default (with the original delivered by
overnight or two day courier) of its election to either nullify or confirm the
Notice of Conversion.
The Company agrees to pay to all Holders of outstanding Debentures
payments for a Conversion Default ("Conversion Default Payments") in the amount
of (N/365) x (.24) x the initial issuance price of the outstanding and/or
tendered but not converted Debentures held by each Holder where N = the number
of days from the Conversion Default Date to the date (the "Authorization Date")
that the Company authorizes a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to
effect conversion of all remaining Debentures. The Company shall send notice
("Authorization Notice") to each Holder of outstanding Debentures that
additional shares of Common Stock have been authorized, the Authorization Date
and the amount of Holder's accrued Conversion Default Payments. The accrued
Conversion Default shall be paid in cash or shall be convertible into Common
Stock at the Conversion Rate, at the Holder's option, payable as follows: (i) in
the event Holder elects to take such payment in cash, cash payments shall be
made to such Holder of outstanding Debentures by the fifth day of the following
calendar month, or (ii) in the event Holder elects to take such payment in
stock, the Holder may convert such payment amount into Common Stock at the
conversion rate set forth in section 4(d) at anytime after the 5th day of the
calendar month following the month in which the Authorization Notice was
received, until the expiration of the mandatory 24 month conversion period.
The Company acknowledges that its failure to maintain a sufficient
number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to effect in full a
conversion of the Debentures will cause the Holder to suffer damages in an
amount that will be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, the parties agree that
it is appropriate to include in this Agreement a provision for liquidated
damages. The parties acknowledge and agree that the liquidated damages provision
set forth in this section represents the parties' good faith effort to quantify
such damages and, as such, agree that the form and amount of such liquidated
damages are reasonable and will not constitute a penalty. The payment of
liquidated damages shall not relieve the Company from its obligations to deliver
the Common Stock pursuant to the terms of this Debenture.
Nothing herein shall limit the Holder's right to pursue actual damages
for the Company's failure to maintain a sufficient number of authorized shares
of Common Stock.
(i) The Company shall furnish to Holder such number of prospectuses and
other documents incidental to the registration of the shares of Common Stock
underlying the Debentures, including any amendment of or supplements thereto.
(j) The Holder is limited in the amount of this Debenture it may
convert and own. In no event except (i) with respect to a conversion pursuant to
redemption by the Company or (ii) if there is (a) a public announcement that 50%
or more of the Company is being acquired, (b) a public announcement that the
Company is being merged, or (c) a change in control, shall the Holder be
entitled to convert any Debentures to the extent that, after such conversion,
the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the
Holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed
beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the
Debentures or any of the Company's Warrants), and (2) the number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Debentures, or exercise of any
of the Company's Warrants, with respect to which the determination of this
proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and
its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock
(after taking into account the shares to be issued to the Holder upon such
conversion). For purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence,
beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), except as
otherwise provided in clause (1) of such proviso. The Holder further agrees that
if the Holder transfers or assigns any of the Debentures to a party who or which
would not be considered such an affiliate, such assignment shall be made subject
to the transferee's or assignee's specific agreement to be bound by the
provisions of this Section as if such transferee or assignee were a signatory to
the Subscription Agreement. Furthermore, the Company shall not permit such
conversions that would violate the provisions of this Section 3.2(j), unless
amended in writing upon mutual consent of the parties.
(k) Redemption. Company reserves the right, at its sole option, to call
a mandatory redemption of any percentage of the balance on the Debentures during
the two year period following the Due Date. In the event the Company exercises
such right of redemption up to and including the last day of the fourth (4th)
month following the Due Date it shall pay the Holder, in U.S. currency One
Hundred Fifteen (115%) of the face amount of the Debentures to be redeemed, plus
accrued xxxxxxxx.Xx the event the Company exercises such right of redemption at
anytime during the fifth (5th) or sixth (6th) months following the Due Date it
shall pay the Holder, in U.S. currency One Hundred Twenty (120%) of the face
amount of the Debentures to be redeemed, plus accrued interest. In the event
the Company exercises such right of redemption at anytime after the last day of
the sixth (6th) month following the Due Date it shall pay the Holder, in U.S.
currency One Hundred Twenty-five (125%) of the face amount of the Debentures
to be redeemed, plus accrued interest. The date by which the Debentures must
be delivered to the Escrow Agent shall not be later than 5 business days
following the date the Company notifies the Holder by facsimile of the
redemption. The Company shall give the Holder at least 5 business day's notice
of its intent to redeem.
Section 3.3. Fractional Shares. The Company shall not issue fractional
shares of Common Stock, or scrip representing fractions of such shares, upon the
conversion of this Debenture. Instead, the Company shall round up or down, as
the case may be, to the nearest whole share.
Section 3.4. Taxes on Conversion. The Company shall pay any
documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of shares
of Common Stock upon the conversion of this Debenture. However, the Holder shall
pay any such tax which is due because the shares are issued name other than its
name.
Section 3.5. Company to Reserve Stock. The Company shall reserve the
number of shares of Common Stock required pursuant to and upon the terms set
forth in this Debenture. All shares of Common Stock which may be issued upon the
conversion hereof shall upon issuance be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the
issuance thereof.
Section 3.6. Restrictions on Transfer. This Debenture has not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the "Act") and is
being issued under Section 4(2) of the Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D
promulgated under the Act. This Debenture and the Common Stock issuable upon the
conversion thereof may only be offered or sold pursuant to registration under or
an exemption from the Act.
Section 3.7. Mergers, Etc. If the Company merges or consolidates with
another corporation or sells or transfers all or substantially all of its assets
to another person and the holders of the Common Stock are entitled to receive
stock, securities or property in respect of or in exchange for Common Stock,
then as a condition of such merger, consolidation, sale or transfer, the Company
and any such successor, purchaser or transferee shall amend this Debenture to
provide that it may thereafter be converted on the terms and subject to the
conditions set forth above into the kind and amount of stock, securities or
property receivable upon such merger, consolidation, sale or transfer by a
holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which this Debenture might
have been converted immediately before such merger, consolidation, sale or
transfer, subject to adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be
practicable to adjustments provided for in this Article 3.
Article 4. Mergers
The Company shall not consolidate or merge into, or transfer all or
substantially all of its assets to, any person, unless such person assumes in
writing the obligations of the Company under this Debenture and immediately
after such transaction no Event of Default exists. Any reference herein to the
Company shall refer to such surviving or transferee corporation and the
obligations of the Company shall terminate upon such written assumption.
Article 5. Reports
The Company will mail to the Holder hereof at its address as shown on
the Register a copy of any annual, quarterly or current report that it files
with the Securities and Exchange Commission promptly after the filing thereof
and a copy of any annual, quarterly or other report or proxy statement that it
gives to its shareholders generally at the time such report or statement is sent
to shareholders.
Article 6. Defaults and Remedies
Section 6.1. Events of Default. An "Event of Default" occurs if (a) the
Company fails to comply with any of its agreements in this Debenture and such
failure continues for the period and after the notice specified below, (b) the
Company pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law (as hereinafter
defined): (i) commences a voluntary case; (ii) consents to the entry of an order
for relief against it in an involuntary case; (iii) consents to the appointment
of a Custodian (as hereinafter defined) of it or for all or substantially all of
its property or (iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors
or (v) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any
Bankruptcy Law that: (A) is for relief against the Company in an involuntary
case; (B) appoints a Custodian of the Company or for all or substantially all of
its property or (C) orders the liquidation of the Company, and the order or
decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days. As used in this Section 6.1,
the term "Bankruptcy Law" means Title 11 of the United States Code or any
similar federal or state law for the relief of debtors. The term " Custodian"
means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator or similar official under any
Bankruptcy Law. A default under clause (c) above is not an Event of Default
until the holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the
Debentures outstanding notify the Company of such default and the Company does
not cure it within five (5) business days after the receipt of such notice,
which must specify the default, demand that it be remedied and state that it is
a "Notice of Default".
Section 6.2. Acceleration. If an Event of Default occurs and is
continuing, the Holder hereof by notice to the Company, may declare the
remaining principal amount of this Debenture to be due and payable. Upon such
declaration, the remaining principal amount shall be due and payable
immediately.
Article 7. Registered Debentures
Section 7.1. Series. This Debenture is one of a numbered series of
Debentures which are identical except as to the principal amount and date of
issuance thereof and as to any restriction on the transfer thereof in order to

Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder. Such Debentures are referred to
herein collectively as the "Debentures". The Debentures shall be issued in whole
multiples of $5,000.
Section 7.2. Record Ownership. The Company, or its attorney, shall
maintain a register of the holders of the Debentures (the "Register") showing
their names and addresses and the serial numbers and principal amounts of
Debentures issued to or transferred of record by them from time to time. The
Register may be maintained in electronic, magnetic or other computerized form.
The Company may treat the person named as the Holder of this Debenture in the
Register as the sole owner of this Debenture. The Holder of this Debenture is
the person exclusively entitled to receive payments of interest on this
Debenture, receive notifications with respect to this Debenture, convert it into
Common Stock and otherwise exercise all of the rights and powers as the absolute
owner hereof.
Section 7.3. Registration of Transfer. Transfers of this Debenture may

transfer hereof and the Debenture is duly endorsed by the appropriate person,
reasonable assurances are given that the endorsements are genuine and effective,
and the Company has received evidence satisfactory to it that such transfer is
rightful and in compliance with all applicable laws, including tax laws and
state and federal securities laws. When this Debenture is presented for transfer
and duly transferred hereunder, it shall be canceled and a new Debenture showing
the name of the transferee as the record holder thereof shall be issued in lieu
hereof. When this Debenture is presented to the Company with a reasonable
request to exchange it for an equal principal amount of Debentures of other
denominations, the Company shall make such exchange and shall cancel this
Debenture and issue in lieu thereof Debentures having a total principal amount
equal to this Debenture in such denominations as agreed to by the Company and
Holder.
Section 7.4. Worn or Lost Debentures. If this Debenture becomes worn,
defaced or mutilated but is still substantially intact and recognizable, the
Company or its agent may issue a new Debenture in lieu hereof upon its
surrender. Where the Holder of this Debenture claims that the Debenture has been
lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue a new Debenture in
place of the original Debenture if the Holder so requests by written notice to
the Company actually received by the Company before it is notified that the
Debenture has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser and the Holder has
delivered to the Company an indemnity bond in such amount and issued by such
surety as the Company deems satisfactory together with an affidavit of the
Holder setting forth the facts concerning such loss, destruction or wrongful
taking and such other information in such form with such proof or verification
as the Company may request.
Article 8. Notices

Debenture shall be duly given if it is in writing and delivered in person or

Article 11. Rules of Construction
In this Debenture, unless the context otherwise requires, words in the
