percent (60%) of the lowest closing bid price, determined on the then current
trading market for the Company’s common stock, for 10 trading days prior to

Annex A (a "Notice of Conversion"), specifying the date on which such conversion
is to be effected (a "Conversion Date"). If no Conversion Date is specified in a
Notice of Conversion, the Conversion Date shall be the date that such Notice of
Conversion is provided hereunder. To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder
shall not be required to physically surrender Debentures to the Company. The
Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Conversion within 2

discrepancy, the records of the Holder shall be controlling and determinative in
the absence of manifest error. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of
this Debenture, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this
paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Debenture, the unpaid and
unconverted principal amount of this Debenture may be less than the amount
stated on the face hereof.
ii) If
the Company, at any time while this Debenture 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 Debenture, including as interest thereon), (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
Set 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 of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this
Section 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.
iii) Whenever
the Set Price is adjusted pursuant to any of Section 4, the Company shall
promptly mail to each Holder a notice setting forth the Set Price after such
adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such
adjustment.
iv) If
(A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution) on the
Common Stock; (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend
on or a redemption of the Common Stock; (C) the Company
shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock
rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of
any class or of any rights; (D) the approval of any stockholders of
the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the
Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party,
any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company, of any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted
into other securities, cash or property; (E) the Company shall authorize the
voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs
of the Company; then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be filed at each
office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of the Debentures, and
shall cause to be mailed to the Holders at their last addresses as they
shall appear upon the stock books of the Company, at least 20
calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter
specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for
the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or
if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common
Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption,
rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is
expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected
that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their
shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable
upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share
exchange; provided, that the failure to mail such notice or any defect therein
or in the mailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action
required to be specified in such notice. Holders are entitled to convert
Debentures during the 20-day period commencing the date of such notice to the
effective date of the event triggering such notice.
v) If, at
any time while this Debenture is outstanding, (A) the Company effects any merger
or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (B) the Company
effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of
related transactions, (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the
Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common
Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities,
cash or property, or (D) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common
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 Debenture, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for
each Underlying 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 Set 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 Set 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 Debenture 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 issue to the
Holder a new debenture consistent with the foregoing provisions
and evidencing the Holder's right to convert such
debenture into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to
which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any
such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this
paragraph (c) and insuring that this Debenture (or any such replacement
security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous
to a Fundamental Transaction. If any Fundamental Transaction constitutes or
results in a Change of Control Transaction, then at the request of the Holder
delivered before the 90th day
after such Fundamental Transaction, the Company (or any such successor or
surviving entity) will purchase the Debenture from the Holder for a purchase
price, payable in cash within five Trading Days after such request (or,
if later, on the effective date of the Fundamental Transaction),
equal to the 100% of the remaining unconverted principal amount of this
Debenture on the date of such request, plus all accrued and unpaid interest
thereon, plus all other accrued and unpaid amounts due hereunder.
(d) 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
issuance upon conversion of the Debenture
(e) Any

its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under
applicable law. Such declaration may be rescinded and annulled by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ at any
time prior to payment hereunder and the Holder shall have all rights as a

Section
4. Conversion.
a) i)
▇▇▇▇▇▇'s Conversion Right. At any time after the Original Issue Date until this
Debenture is no longer outstanding, this Debenture, including interest and
principal, shall be convertible into shares of Common Stock at a price of sixty
percent (60%) of the lowest closing bid price, determined on the then current
trading market for the Company’s common stock, for 10 trading days prior to
conversion. (the “Set Price”) at the option of the Holder, in whole at any time
and from time to time. In lieu of conversion, the Holder may exchange
this Debenture (including all principal and all accrued interest) for assuming
convertible non-trade debt of the Company in the amount of Two Hundred and
Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($275,000). The Holder shall effect conversions by
delivering to the Company the form of Notice of Conversion attached hereto as
Annex A (a "Notice of Conversion"), specifying the date on which such conversion
is to be effected (a "Conversion Date"). If no Conversion Date is specified in a
Notice of Conversion, the Conversion Date shall be the date that such Notice of
Conversion is provided hereunder. To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder
shall not be required to physically surrender Debentures to the Company. The
Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Conversion within 2
Business Days of receipt of such notice. In the event of any dispute or
discrepancy, the records of the Holder shall be controlling and determinative in
the absence of manifest error. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of
this Debenture, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this
paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Debenture, the unpaid and
unconverted principal amount of this Debenture may be less than the amount
stated on the face hereof.
ii) If
the Company, at any time while this Debenture 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 Debenture, including as interest thereon), (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
Set 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 of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this
Section 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.
iii) Whenever
the Set Price is adjusted pursuant to any of Section 4, the Company shall
promptly mail to each Holder a notice setting forth the Set Price after such
adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such
adjustment.
iv) If
(A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution) on the
Common Stock; (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend
on or a redemption of the Common Stock; (C) the Company
shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock
rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of
any class or of any rights; (D) the approval of any stockholders of
the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the
Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party,
any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company, of any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted
into other securities, cash or property; (E) the Company shall authorize the
voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs
of the Company; then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be filed at each
office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of the Debentures, and
shall cause to be mailed to the Holders at their last addresses as they
shall appear upon the stock books of the Company, at least 20
calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter
specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for
the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or
if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common
Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption,
rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is
expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected
that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their
shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable
upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share
exchange; provided, that the failure to mail such notice or any defect therein
or in the mailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action
required to be specified in such notice. Holders are entitled to convert
Debentures during the 20-day period commencing the date of such notice to the
effective date of the event triggering such notice.
v) If, at
any time while this Debenture is outstanding, (A) the Company effects any merger
or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (B) the Company
effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of
related transactions, (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the
Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common
Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities,
cash or property, or (D) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common
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 Debenture, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for
each Underlying 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 Set 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 Set 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 Debenture 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 issue to the
Holder a new debenture consistent with the foregoing provisions
and evidencing the Holder's right to convert such
debenture into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to
which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any
such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this
paragraph (c) and insuring that this Debenture (or any such replacement
security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous
to a Fundamental Transaction. If any Fundamental Transaction constitutes or
results in a Change of Control Transaction, then at the request of the Holder
delivered before the 90th day
after such Fundamental Transaction, the Company (or any such successor or
surviving entity) will purchase the Debenture from the Holder for a purchase
price, payable in cash within five Trading Days after such request (or,
if later, on the effective date of the Fundamental Transaction),
equal to the 100% of the remaining unconverted principal amount of this
Debenture on the date of such request, plus all accrued and unpaid interest
thereon, plus all other accrued and unpaid amounts due hereunder.
(d) 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
issuance upon conversion of the Debenture
(e) Any

Holders hereunder, including, without limitation, any Notice of
Conversion, shall be in writing and delivered personally, by
facsimile, sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service,
addressed to the Company, at the address set forth or such
