Section
3. Conversion.
(a) Conversion
at Option of Holder.
(i) This
Note
shall be convertible into shares of Common Stock at the option of the Holder,
in
whole or in part at any time and from time to time, after the Original Issue
Date (as defined in Section
5)
(subject to the limitations on conversion set forth in Section
3(b)
hereof).
The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion hereunder equals
the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding amount of this Note to
be
converted by (y) the Conversion Price (as defined in Section
3(b)(i)).
The
Obligor shall deliver Common Stock certificates to the Holder prior to the
Fifth
(5th)
Trading
Day after a Conversion Date.
3
(ii) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, if on any Conversion Date: (1) the
number of shares of Common Stock at the time authorized, unissued and unreserved
for all purposes, or held as treasury stock, is insufficient to pay principal
and interest hereunder in shares of Common Stock; (2) the Common Stock is not
listed or quoted for trading on the OTC or on a Subsequent Market; or (3) the
Obligor has failed to timely satisfy its conversion, and the Obligor is unable
to remedy any of the foregoing within 20 business days, then, at the option
of
the Holder, the Obligor, in lieu of delivering shares of Common Stock pursuant
to Section
3(a)(i),
shall
deliver, within three (3) Trading Days of each applicable Conversion Date,
an
amount in cash equal to the product of the outstanding principal amount to
be
converted plus any interest due therein divided by the Conversion Price, chosen
by the Holder, and multiplied by the average closing price of the stock from
date of the conversion notice till the date that such cash payment is
made.
Further,
if the Obligor shall not have delivered any cash due in respect of conversion
of
this Note or as payment of interest thereon by the fifth (5th)
Trading
Day after the Conversion Date, the Holder may, by notice to the Obligor, require
the Obligor to issue shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section
3(c),
except
that for such purpose the Conversion Price applicable thereto shall be the
lesser of the Conversion Price on the Conversion Date and the Conversion Price
on the date of such Holder demand. Any such shares will be subject to the
provisions of this Section.
(iii) The
Holder shall effect conversions by delivering to the Obligor a completed notice
in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (a “Conversion
Notice”).
The
date on which a Conversion Notice is delivered is the “Conversion
Date.”
Unless
the Holder is converting the entire principal amount outstanding under this
Note, the Holder is not required to physically surrender this Note to the
Obligor in order to effect conversions. Conversions hereunder shall have the
effect of lowering the outstanding principal amount of this Note plus all
accrued and unpaid interest thereon in an amount equal to the applicable
conversion. The Holder and the Obligor shall maintain records showing the
principal amount converted and the date of such conversions. In the event of
any
dispute or discrepancy, the records of the Holder shall be controlling and
determinative in the absence of manifest error.
(b) Certain
Conversion Restrictions.
(i) The
Holder may not convert this Note or receive shares of Common Stock as payment
of
interest hereunder to the extent such conversion or receipt of such interest
payment would result in the Holder, together with any affiliate thereof,
beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the
Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 9.9% of the
then
issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, including shares issuable upon
conversion of, and payment of interest on, this Debenture held by such Holder
after application of this Section. Since the Holder will not be obligated to
report to the Obligor the number of shares of Common Stock it may hold at the
time of a conversion hereunder, unless the conversion at issue would result
in
the issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess of 9.9% of the then outstanding
shares of Common Stock without regard to any other shares which may be
beneficially owned by the Holder or an affiliate thereof, the Holder shall
have
the authority and obligation to determine whether the restriction contained
in
this Section will limit any particular conversion hereunder and to the extent
that the Holder determines that the limitation contained in this Section
applies, the determination of which portion of the principal amount of this
Debenture is convertible shall be the responsibility and obligation of the
Holder. If the Holder has delivered a Conversion Notice for a principal amount
of this Debenture that, without regard to any other shares that the Holder
or
its affiliates may beneficially own, would result in the issuance in excess
of
the permitted amount hereunder, the Obligor shall notify the Holder of this
fact
and shall honor the conversion for the maximum principal amount permitted to
be
converted on such Conversion Date in accordance with the periods described
in
Section
3(a)(i)
and, at
the option of the Holder, either retain any principal amount tendered for
conversion in excess of the permitted amount hereunder for future conversions
or
return such excess principal amount to the Holder by issuing to the Holder
a new
debenture representing such excess principal amount. The provisions of this
Section may be waived by a Holder (but only as to itself and not to any other
Holder) upon not less than 65 days prior notice to the Obligor. Other Holders
shall be unaffected by any such waiver.
4
(c) Conversion
Price and Adjustments to Conversion Price.
(i) The
Holder shall be entitled to convert, at its sole option, at any time a portion
or all amounts of principal and interest due and outstanding under this Note
into shares of the Obligor’s Common Stock at a price equal to $0.25 (the
“Conversion
Price”).
The
Conversion Price may be adjusted pursuant to the other terms of this
Note.
(ii) If
the
Obligor, at any time while this Note is outstanding, shall (a) 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, (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 Obligor, 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 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) If
the
Obligor, at any time while this Note is outstanding, shall issue rights, options
or warrants to all holders of Common Stock (and not to the Holder) entitling
them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share
less than the Conversion Price, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied
by
a fraction, of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of the Common
Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding on the date of issuance
of
such rights or warrants (plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock
offered for subscription or purchase), and of which the numerator shall be
the
number of shares of the Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any)
outstanding on the date of issuance of such rights or warrants, plus the number
of shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares
so
offered would purchase at the Conversion Price. Such adjustment shall be made
whenever such rights or warrants are issued, and shall become effective
immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled
to receive such rights, options or warrants. However, upon the expiration of
any
such right, option or warrant to purchase shares of the Common Stock the
issuance of which resulted in an adjustment in the Conversion Price pursuant
to
this Section, if any such right, option or warrant shall expire and shall not
have been exercised, the Conversion Price shall immediately upon such expiration
be recomputed and effective immediately upon such expiration be increased to
the
price which it would have been (but reflecting any other adjustments in the
Conversion Price made pursuant to the provisions of this Section after the
issuance of such rights or warrants) had the adjustment of the Conversion Price
made upon the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the
basis of offering for subscription or purchase only that number of shares of
the
Common Stock actually purchased upon the exercise of such rights, options or
warrants actually exercised.
5
(iv) Except
in
the case of an Exempt Issuance (as such term is defined in the Securities
Purchase Agreement), if the Obligor or any subsidiary thereof, as applicable,
at
any time while this Note is outstanding, shall issue shares of Common Stock
or
rights, warrants, options or other securities or debt that are convertible
into
or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock (“Common
Stock Equivalents”)
entitling any Person to acquire shares of Common Stock, at a price per share
less than the Conversion Price (if the holder of the Common Stock or Common
Stock Equivalent so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase
price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange
prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which
is
issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common
Stock at a price per share which is less than the Conversion Price, such
issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Conversion Price),
then, at the sole option of the Holder, the Conversion Price shall be reduced
to
the price (calculated to the nearest one hundredth of a cent) determined by
multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior thereto by a
fraction, the numerator of which shall be the sum of (i) the number of shares
of
Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance, and (ii) the number
of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration received (or to
be
received, assuming exercise or conversion in full of such rights, warrants
and
convertible securities) for the issuance of such additional shares of Common
Stock would purchase at the Conversion Price, and the denominator of which
shall
be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
after
the issuance of such additional shares. Such adjustment shall be made
successively whenever such an issuance is made. The Obligor shall notify the
Holder in writing, no later than three (3) business days following the issuance
of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalent subject to this Section,
indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or of applicable reset price,
exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms. No adjustment under
this Section shall be made as a result of issuances and exercises of options
to
purchase shares of Common Stock issued for compensatory purposes pursuant to
any
of the Obligor's stock option or stock purchase plans.
(v) If
the
Obligor, at any time while this Note is outstanding, shall distribute to all
holders of Common Stock (and not to the Holder) evidences of its indebtedness
or
assets or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security, then
in
each such case the Conversion Price at which this Note shall thereafter be
convertible shall be determined by multiplying the 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 Closing Bid Price determined as of the record date mentioned above,
and of which the numerator shall be such Closing Bid 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 outstanding
share of the Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith.
In either case the adjustments shall be described in a statement provided to
the
Holder of the portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed
or
such subscription rights applicable to one share of Common Stock. Such
adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall become
effective immediately after the record date mentioned above.
6
(vi) In
case
of any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange
pursuant to which the Common Stock is converted into other securities of the
Company, cash or property, the Holder shall have the right thereafter to, at
its
option, (A) convert the then outstanding principal amount, together with all
accrued but unpaid interest and any other amounts then owing hereunder in
respect of this Note into the shares of stock and other securities, cash and
property receivable upon or deemed to be held by holders of the Common Stock
following such reclassification or share exchange, and the Holder of this Note
shall be entitled upon such event to receive such amount of securities, cash
or
property as the shares of the Common Stock of the Obligor into which the then
outstanding principal amount, together with all accrued but unpaid interest
and
any other amounts then owing hereunder in respect of this Note could have been
converted immediately prior to such reclassification or share exchange would
have been entitled, or (B) require the Obligor to prepay the outstanding
principal amount of this Note, plus all interest and other amounts due and
payable thereon. The entire prepayment price shall be paid in cash. This
provision shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications or share
exchanges.
(vii) The
Obligor shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized
Common Stock the full number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion
of all outstanding amounts under this Note; and within three (3) Business Days
following the receipt by the Obligor of a Holder's notice that such minimum
number of Underlying Shares is not so reserved, the Obligor shall promptly
reserve a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to comply with such
requirement.
(viii) All
calculations under this Section
3
shall be
rounded up to the nearest $0.001 or whole share.
(ix) Whenever
the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to Section
3
hereof,
the Obligor shall promptly mail to the Holder a notice setting forth the
Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement
of
the facts requiring such adjustment.
7
(x) If
(A)
the Obligor shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution) on the Common
Stock; (B) the Obligor shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on
or
a redemption of the Common Stock; (C) the Obligor 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 Obligor shall be required in connection
with
any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which
the Obligor is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of
the
assets of the Obligor, of any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common
Stock
is converted into other securities, cash or property; or (E) the Obligor shall
authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding
up of
the affairs of the Obligor; then, in each case, the Obligor shall cause to
be
filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of
this
Note, and shall cause to be mailed to the Holder at its last address as it
shall
appear upon the stock books of the Obligor, at least twenty (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. The Holder is entitled to convert this Note during the 20-day
calendar period commencing the date of such notice to the effective date of
the
event triggering such notice.
(xi) In
case
of any (1) merger or consolidation of the Obligor or any subsidiary of the
Obligor with or into another Person, or (2) sale by the Obligor or any
subsidiary of the Obligor of more than one-half of the assets of the Obligor
in
one or a series of related transactions, a Holder shall have the right to
exercise any rights under Section
2(b),
if
Obligor fails, at the option of the Holder, (A) to permit the Holder to convert
the aggregate amount of this Note then outstanding into the shares of stock
and
other securities, cash and property receivable upon or deemed to be held by
holders of Common Stock following such merger, consolidation or sale, and such
Holder shall not be entitled upon such event or series of related events to
receive such amount of securities, cash and property as the shares of Common
Stock into which such aggregate principal amount of this Note could have been
converted immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or sales would have
been entitled, or (B) in the case of a merger or consolidation, to require
the
surviving entity to issue to the Holder a convertible Note with a principal
amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of this Note then held by such
Holder, plus all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts owing thereon,
which such newly issued convertible Note shall have terms identical (including
with respect to conversion) to the terms of this Note, and shall be entitled
to
all of the rights and privileges of the Holder of this Note set forth herein
and
the agreements pursuant to which this Notes were issued. In the case of clause
(C), the conversion price applicable for the newly issued shares of convertible
preferred stock or convertible Notes shall be based upon the amount of
securities, cash and property that each share of Common Stock would receive
in
such transaction and the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the
effectiveness or closing date for such transaction. The terms of any such
merger, sale or consolidation shall include such terms so as to continue to
give
the Holder the right to receive the securities, cash and property set forth
in
this Section upon any conversion or redemption following such event. This
provision shall similarly apply to successive such events.
8
(xii) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, no adjustment shall be made hereunder in
connection with an Exempt Adjustment.
(d) Other
Provisions.
(i) The
Obligor 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 this Note and payment of interest on this Note,
each
as herein provided, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent
purchase rights of persons other than the Holder, not less than such number
of
shares of the Common Stock as shall (subject to any additional requirements
of
the Obligor as to reservation of such shares set forth in this Note) be issuable
(taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Sections
2(b) and 3(c))
upon
the conversion of the outstanding principal amount of this Note and payment
of
interest hereunder. The Obligor covenants that all shares of Common Stock that
shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly and validly authorized, issued
and fully paid.
(ii) The
issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on conversion of this
Note shall be made without charge to the Holder 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 Obligor 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 of such Note so converted and the Obligor 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 Obligor the amount of
such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Obligor that
such
tax has been paid.
(iii) Nothing
herein shall limit a Holder's right to pursue actual damages or declare an
Event
of Default pursuant to Section
2
herein
for the Obligor 's failure to deliver certificates representing shares of Common
Stock upon conversion within the period specified herein and such Holder shall
have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity
including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or
injunctive relief, in each case without the need to post a bond or provide
other
security. The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit the Holder from
seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under
applicable law.
