follows:
a. Without

towards the public sale or distribution thereof and not with a view to or for
sale in connection with any distribution thereof.

General Rules and Regulations under the 1933 Act by reason of Rule 501(a)(3),
(ii) experienced in making investments of the kind described in this Agreement
and the related documents, (iii) able, by reason of the business and financial

pursuant to registration of the Shares under the 1933 Act or pursuant to an
exemption from registration and compliance with applicable states’ securities
laws.
d. Each
Buyer understands that the Securities are being offered and sold to it in
reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of United
States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying upon
the truth and accuracy of, and the Buyer’s compliance with, the representations,
warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Buyers set
forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and
the
eligibility of the Buyers to acquire the Securities.
e. Each
Buyer and its advisors, if any, have been furnished with all materials relating
to the business, finances and operations of the Company and materials relating
to the offer and sale of the Securities which have been requested by the Buyer.
Each Buyer and its advisors, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to

to
any such inquiries. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each
Buyer

the jurisdiction of its organization. This Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents have been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered on
behalf of the Buyer and create a valid and binding agreement of the Buyer
enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject as to enforceability to
general principles of equity and to bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium and
other
similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights
generally.

3. COMPANY
REPRESENTATIONS, ETC.
The
Company represents and warrants to the Buyers that:
a. Concerning
the Debentures and the Shares. There
are
no preemptive rights of any stockholder of the Company to acquire the Debentures
or the Shares.
b. Reporting
Company Status. The
Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the State of Nevada and has the requisite corporate power
to
own its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted. The
Company is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and is in
good
standing in each jurisdiction where the nature of the business conducted or
property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, other than those
jurisdictions in which the failure to so qualify would not have a material
adverse effect on the business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise)
or results of operation of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole
(a
“Material Adverse Effect”). The Company has registered its Common Stock pursuant
to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934
Act”), and the Common Stock is listed and traded on the OTC Bulletin Board
Market of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (trading symbol:
IGAM.otcbb). The Company has received no notice, either oral or written, with
respect to the continued eligibility of the Common Stock for such listing,
and
the Company has maintained all requirements for the continuation of such
listing.
c. Authorized
Shares. The
authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 105,000,000 shares of
capital stock, of which 100,000,000 shares are designated as shares of Common
Stock and 5,000,000 shares are designated as shares of preferred stock. As
of
the date hereof, 51,282,100 shares
of
Common Stock are issued and outstanding, (excluding an additional approximately
150,000 shares
of
Common Stock underlying Common Stock equivalents that are currently issued
and
outstanding, as more specifically described in Schedule
3(c)
hereto,
which is hereby incorporated herein by reference), and zero shares of preferred
stock are issued and outstanding. All issued and outstanding shares of Common
Stock have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and
nonassessable. The Company has sufficient authorized and unissued shares of
Common Stock as may be necessary to effect the issuance of the Shares. The
Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued upon conversion of, or as
interest on, the Debentures will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable and will not subject the holder thereof to personal liability
by
reason of being such holder. At all times, the Issuer shall keep available
and
reserved for issuance to the holders of the Debentures Common Stock duly
authorized for issuance against the Debentures.
d. Securities
Purchase Agreement; Registration Rights Agreement. This
Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, between the Company and the
Buyers, substantially in the form of Exhibit B annexed hereto (the “Registration
Rights Agreement”), and the issuance of the Debentures and the other
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, have been duly and
validly authorized by the Company, and this Agreement has been duly executed
and
delivered by the Company. Each of the Transaction Documents, when executed
and
delivered by the Company, are and will be, valid, legal and binding agreements
of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, subject
as to enforceability to general principles of equity and to bankruptcy,
insolvency, moratorium, and other similar laws affecting the enforcement of
creditors’ rights generally.
e. Non-contravention.
The
execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents, the issuance of the
Securities and the consummation by the Company of the other transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, and the
Debentures do not and will not conflict with or result in a breach by the
Company of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under
(i)
the articles of incorporation or by-laws of the Company, each as currently
in
effect, (ii) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, or other material agreement
or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it or any of its
properties or assets are bound, including any listing agreement for the Common
Stock, except as herein set forth or an event which results in the creation
of
any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any assets of the Company or of any of
its
subsidiaries or the triggering of any preemptive or anti-dilution rights or
rights of first refusal or first offer on the part of holders of the Company’s
securities, (iii) to its knowledge, any existing applicable law, rule, or
regulation or any applicable decree, judgment, or order of any court, United
States federal or state regulatory body, administrative agency, or other
governmental body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its properties
or assets, or (iv) the Company’s listing agreement for its Common Stock (if
applicable), except such conflict, breach or default which would not have a
Material Adverse Effect.
f. Approvals.

authorization, approval or consent of any court, governmental body, regulatory
agency, self-regulatory organization, or stock exchange or market or the
stockholders of the Company is required to be obtained by the Company for the
entering into and performing this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents
(including without limitation the issuance and sale of the Securities to the
Buyers as contemplated by this Agreement) except such authorizations, approvals
and consents that have been obtained, or such authorizations, approvals and
consents, the failure of which to obtain would not have a Material Adverse
Affect.

Filings. None
of
the Company’s SEC Documents contained, at the time they were filed, any untrue
statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact required
to
be stated therein or necessary to make the statements made therein in light
of
the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Except as set

otherwise), or results of operations of the Company or any of its subsidiaries,
except as disclosed in the Company’s SEC Documents. Since July 31, 2005, except

Disclosure. There
is
no fact known to the Company (other than general economic conditions known
to
the public generally or as disclosed in the Company’s SEC Documents) that has
not been disclosed in writing to the Buyers that (i) would reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) would reasonably be expected
to
materially and adversely affect the ability of the Company to perform its
obligations pursuant to the Transaction Documents, or (iii) would reasonably
be
expected to materially and adversely affect the value of the rights granted
to
the Buyers in the Transaction Documents.
j. Absence
of Litigation. Except
as
described in Schedule
3(l),
there
is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court,
public board or body pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened
against or affecting the Company or any of its subsidiaries, wherein an
unfavorable decision, ruling or finding would have a Material Adverse Effect
or
which would adversely affect the validity or enforceability of, or the authority
or ability of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole to perform
its
obligations under, any of the Transaction Documents. Neither the Company nor
any
of its subsidiaries is a party to or subject to the provisions of, any order,
writ, injunction, judgement or decree of any court or government agency or
instrumentality which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.
k. Absence
of Events of Default. Except
as
described in Schedule
3(l), no
Event
of Default (or its equivalent term), as defined in the respective agreement,
indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument, to which the Company
or
any of its subsidiaries is a party, and no event which, with the giving of
notice or the passage of time or both, would become an Event of Default (or
its
equivalent term) (as so defined in such document), has occurred and is
continuing, which would have a Material Adverse Effect.
l. No
Undisclosed Liabilities or Events. The
Company has no liabilities or obligations other than those described on
Schedule
3(l)
and/or
disclosed in the Company’s SEC Documents or those incurred in the ordinary
course of the Company’s business since July 31, 2005, and which individually or
in the aggregate, do not or would not have a Material Adverse Effect. No event
or circumstances has occurred or exists with respect to the Company or its
properties, business, condition (financial or otherwise), or results of
operations, which, under applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public
disclosure or announcement prior to the date hereof by the Company but which
has
not been so publicly announced or disclosed. There are no proposals currently
under consideration or currently anticipated to be under consideration by the
Board of Directors or the executive officers of the Company which proposal
would
(x) change the articles of incorporation, by-laws or any other charter document
of the Company, each as currently in effect, with or without shareholder
approval, which change would reduce or otherwise adversely affect the rights
and
powers of the shareholders of the Common Stock or (y) materially or
substantially change the business, assets or capital of the Company, including
its interests in subsidiaries.
m. No
Integrated Offering. Neither
the Company nor any of its affiliates nor any person acting on its or their
behalf has, directly or indirectly, at any time since March 1, 2005 made any
offer or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security
under
circumstances that would eliminate the availability of the exemption from
registration under Rule 506 of Regulation D in connection with the offer and
sale of the Securities as contemplated hereby.
5
n. Dilution.
The
number of Shares issuable upon conversion of the Debentures may increase
substantially in certain circumstances, including, but not necessarily limited
to, the circumstance wherein the market price of the Common Stock declines
prior
to the conversion of the Debentures. The Company’s executive officers and
directors have studied and fully understand the nature of the securities being
sold hereby and recognize that they have a potential dilutive effect and further
that the conversion of the Debentures and/or sale of the Conversion Shares
may
have an adverse effect on the market price of the Common Stock. The board of
directors of the Company has concluded, in its good faith business judgment,
that such issuance is in the best interests of the Company. The Company
specifically acknowledges that its obligation to issue the Conversion Shares
upon conversion of the Debentures is binding upon the Company and enforceable
regardless of the dilution such issuance may have on the ownership interests
of
other shareholders of the Company.
o. Regulatory Permits.
The
Company has all such permits, easements, consents, licenses, franchises and
other governmental and regulatory authorizations from all appropriate federal,
state, local or other public authorities (“Permits”) as are necessary to own and
lease its properties and conduct its businesses in all material respects in
the
manner described in the SEC Documents and as currently being conducted. All
such
Permits are in full force and effect and the Company has fulfilled and performed
all of its material obligations with respect to such Permits, and no event
has
occurred that allows, or after notice or lapse of time would allow, revocation
or termination thereof or will result in any other material impairment of the
rights of the holder of any such Permit, subject in each case to such
qualification as may be disclosed in the Prospectus. Such Permits contain no
restrictions that would materially impair the ability of the Company to conduct
businesses in the manner consistent with its past practices. The Company has
not
received notice or otherwise has knowledge of any proceeding or action relating
to the revocation or modification of any such Permit.
p. Hazardous
Materials.
The
Company is in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws in all respects
except where the failure to comply does not have and could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. For purposes of the foregoing:

collectively, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and
Liability Act of 1980, as amended, the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization
Act of 1986, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, the Toxic Substances
Control Act, as amended, the Clean Air Act, as amended, the Clean Water Act,
as
amended, any other “Superfund” or “Superlien” law or any other applicable
federal, state or local statute, law, ordinance, code, rule, regulation, order
or decree regulating, relating to, or imposing liability or standards of conduct
concerning, the environment or any Hazardous Material.
“Hazardous
Material”
means
and includes any hazardous, toxic or dangerous waste, substance or material,

public accountant with respect to the Company, as required by the 1933 Act,
the
1934 Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
r. Internal
Accounting Controls. The
Company maintains a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide
reasonable assurances that (1) transactions are executed in accordance with
management’s general or specific authorization; (2) transactions are recorded as
necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles and to maintain accountability for
assets; (3) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s
general or specific authorization; and (4) the recorded accountability for
assets is compared with existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate
action is taken with respect to any differences.
s. No
Brokers.
The
Company has not engaged any person to act on its behalf in connection with
the
purchase and sale of the Debentures to the Buyers hereunder other than Divine
Capital Markets, LLC, and no person is entitled to receive any consideration
from the Company or any Buyer arising from any finder’s agreement, brokerage
agreement or other agreement to which the Company is a party.

transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such
registration; (2) any sale of the Securities made in reliance on Rule 144
promulgated under the 1933 Act may be made only in accordance with the terms
of
said Rule and further, if said Rule is not applicable, any resale of such
Securities under circumstances in which the seller, or the person through whom

REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OR OTHER
EVIDENCE ACCEPTABLE TO THE CORPORATION THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT
REQUIRED.
c. Registration
Rights Agreement. The
parties hereto agree to enter into the Registration Rights Agreement on or

d. Filings.
The

to provide a copy thereof to the Buyers promptly after such filing.
e. Reporting

So long
as any of the Buyers beneficially own any of the Securities, the Company shall
timely file prior to or on the date when due, all reports required to be filed
with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act, and the Company
shall not terminate its status as an issuer required to file reports under
the
1934 Act even if the 1934 Act or the rules and regulations thereunder would

Board Market (“OTCBB”) of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
and will comply in all material respects with the Company’s reporting, filing
and other obligations under the by-laws or rules of the National Association

explanation and/or response to the issues raised in the Regulatory Notice,
with
a view towards maintaining and/or regaining full compliance with the applicable
rules and regulations of the OTCBB, NASD and/or SEC and maintaining or regaining
good standing of the Company with the OTCBB, NASD and/or SEC, as the case may
be, the intent being to ensure that the Company maintain its reporting company

breach of law, becomes a party defendant in any capacity in any action or
proceeding brought by any stockholder of the Company, in connection with or
as a
result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents, or if such Buyer is impleaded in any such action, proceeding or
investigation by any Person, or (ii) any Buyer, other than by reason of its
gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of law, becomes a party defendant
in any capacity in any action or proceeding brought by the SEC against or

directors, agents, employees or controlling persons shall have any liability
to
the Company or any person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of the
Company in connection with or as a result of the consummation of the Transaction
Documents except to the extent that any losses, claims, damages, liabilities

5. TRANSFER
AGENT INSTRUCTIONS.
a. Promptly
following the purchase by the Buyers of the Debentures in accordance with
Section 1(c) hereof, the Company will irrevocably instruct its transfer agent
in
writing to (i) reserve that number of shares of Common Stock as is equal to
three hundred percent (300%) of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of the then-outstanding Debentures (including accrued interest
thereon) as may be required to satisfy the conversion rights of the Buyers
pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Debentures, and (ii) issue Common
Stock from time to time upon conversion of the Debentures in such amounts as
specified from time to time by the Company to the transfer agent, bearing the
restrictive legend specified in Section 4(b) of this Agreement prior to
registration of the Shares under the 1933 Act, registered in the name of the
respective Buyer or its permitted assigns and in such denominations to be
specified by such Buyer in connection with each conversion of the Debentures.
The Company shall provide the Placement Agent with a copy of such written
instructions to the Company’s transfer agent simultaneously with the issuance of
such instructions to the transfer agent. The Company warrants that if the Buyer
is not in breach of the representations and warranties contained in this
Agreement, no instruction other than such instructions referred to in this
Section 5 and stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section 4(a) hereof
prior to registration and sale of the Converted Shares under the 1933 Act will
be given by the Company to the transfer agent and that the Converted Shares
shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company
as and to the extent provided in this Agreement, the Registration Rights
Agreement, and applicable law. Nothing in this Section shall affect in any
way
the Buyers’ obligations and agreement to comply with all applicable securities
laws upon resale of the Securities. If any Buyer provides the Company with
an
opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that registration
of a
resale by such Buyer of any of the Securities in accordance with clause (1)(B)
of Section 4(a) of this Agreement is not required under the 1933 Act, the
Company shall (except as provided in clause (2) of Section 4(a) of this

certificates for Common Stock without legend in such name and in such
denominations as specified by the Buyer.
8

Company will permit the Buyers to exercise their rights to convert the
Debentures by telecopying or delivering an executed and completed Notice of
Conversion to the Company. The Company will within two (2) Business Days respond
with its endorsement so as to confirm the outstanding principal amount of any
Debenture submitted for conversion or shall reconcile any difference with the
Buyer promptly after receiving such Notice of Conversion.
(ii) The
term
“Conversion Date” means, with respect to any conversion elected by the holder of
the Debentures, the date specified in the Notice of Conversion, provided the
copy of the Notice of Conversion is given either via mail or facsimile to or
otherwise delivered to the Company in accordance with the provisions hereof
so
that it is received by the Company on or before such specified date.
(iii) The
Company will transmit the certificates representing the Converted Shares
issuable upon conversion of any Debentures (together, unless otherwise
instructed by the Buyer, with Debentures not being so converted) to the Buyer
at
the address specified in the Notice of Conversion (which may be the Buyer’s
address for notices as contemplated by Section 12 hereof or a different address)
via express courier, by electronic transfer or otherwise, within five (5)
business days if the address for delivery is in the United States and within
seven (7) business days if the address for delivery is outside the United States
(such fifth business day or seventh business day, as the case may be, the
“Delivery Date”) after (A) the business day on which the Company has received
both of the Notice of Conversion (by facsimile or other delivery) and the
original Debentures being converted (and if the same are not delivered to the
Company on the same date, the date of delivery of the second of such items)
or
(B) the date an interest payment on the Debentures, which the Company has
elected to pay by the issuance of Common Stock, as contemplated by the
Debentures, was due.
c. From
and
after the date on which the Shares have been registered under the 1933 Act
as
contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement, the failure to issue
unrestricted, freely tradable Conversion Shares to the Buyers upon Conversion
shall be considered an Event of Default, which if not cured after ten (10)
days
prior written notice, shall
entitle the Buyers (or
any
of them) to demand
that the Debentures held
by
them be immediately redeemed by a cash payment equal to 131% of the aggregate
of
the unpaid principal amount of and accrued interest on such Debentures (whether
or not the terms of such Debentures expressly
permit the redemption thereof).
The
Company acknowledges that the failure to honor a Notice of Conversion shall
cause definable financial hardship on the Buyers.
d. The
Company will authorize its transfer agent to give information to a Buyer or
such
Buyer’s representative relating to the transfer of the Company’s shares of
Common Stock to the Buyer, upon the reasonable request of the Buyer or any
such
representative. The Company will provide such Buyer with a copy of the
authorization so given to the transfer agent.
e. Each
Buyer shall be entitled to exercise its conversion privilege with respect to
the
Debentures notwithstanding the commencement of any case under 11 U.S.C. §101
et
seq.
(the
“Bankruptcy Code”). In the event the Company is a debtor under the Bankruptcy
Code, the Company hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted, any rights
to
relief it may have under 11 U.S.C. §362 in respect of such Buyer’s conversion
privilege. The Company hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted, any
rights to relief it may have under 11 U.S.C. §362 in respect of the conversion
of the Debentures. The Company agrees, without cost or expense to such Buyer,

Redemption Price;
|
| 3. |
the
aggregate principal amount of the Debentures being called for redemption;
|
| 4. |
a
statement instructing the Holders to surrender their Debentures for
redemption and payment of the Redemption Price, including the name
and
address of the Company or, if applicable, the paying agent of the
Company,
where Debentures are to be surrendered for
redemption;
|
| 5. |
a
statement advising the Holders that (x) interest will cease to accrue
on
the Debentures (or, in the case of a partial redemption, that portion
of
the Debentures being called for redemption) as of the Redemption
Date, and
(y) that the Debentures (or, in the case of a partial redemption,
that
portion of the Debentures being called for redemption) as of the
Redemption Date will cease to be convertible into Common Stock as
of the
Redemption Date; and
|
| 6. |
in
the case of a partial redemption, a statement advising the Holders
that
after the Redemption Date a substitute Debenture will be issued by
the
Company after deduction the portion thereof called for redemption,
at no
cost to the Holder.
|
Unless
demand has otherwise been made by the Holder in writing for payment in cash
as
provided hereunder, any Debentures not previously tendered to the Company for
conversion as of the Maturity Date shall be deemed to have been surrendered
for
conversion, without further action of any kind by the Company or any of its
agents, employees or representatives, as of the Maturity Date at the Conversion
Price applicable on the Maturity Date (“Mandatory Conversion”).
No
provision of this Debenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company,
which is absolute and unconditional to convert this Debenture into Common Stock,
at the time, place, and rate herein prescribed. This Debenture is a direct
obligation of the Company.
If
the
Company (a) merges or consolidates with another corporation or after business
entity and the Company is not the surviving entity or (b) 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 will agree that this Debenture 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. In the event of any (i) proposed merger or
consolidation where the Company is not the surviving entity or (ii) sale or
transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (in either
such case, a "Sale"), the Holder shall have the right to convert by delivering
a
Notice of Conversion to the Company within fifteen (15) days of receipt of
notice of such Sale from the Company.
16
If,
at
any time while any portion of this Debenture remains outstanding, the Company
effectuates a stock split or reverse stock split of its Common Stock or issues
a
dividend on its Common Stock consisting of shares of Common Stock or otherwise
recapitalizes its Common Stock, the Conversion Price shall be equitably adjusted
to reflect such action. By way of illustration, and not in limitation, of the
foregoing (i) if the Company effectuates a 2:1 split of its Common Stock,
thereafter, with respect to any conversion for which the Company issues the
shares after the record date of such split, the Conversion Price shall be deemed
to be one-half of what it had been calculated to be immediately prior to such
split; (ii) if the Company effectuates a 1:10 reverse split of its Common Stock,
thereafter, with respect to any conversion for which the Company issues the
shares after the record date of such reverse split, the Conversion Price shall
be deemed to be the amount of such Conversion Price calculated immediately
prior
to the record date multiplied by 10; and (iii) if the Company declares a stock
dividend of one share of Common Stock for every 10 shares outstanding,
thereafter, with respect to any conversion for which the Company issues the
shares after the record date of such dividend, the Conversion Price shall be
deemed to be the amount of such Conversion Price calculated immediately prior
to
such record date multiplied by a fraction, of which the numerator is the number
of shares for which a dividend share will be issued and the denominator is
such
number of shares plus the dividend share(s) issuable or issued
thereon.
All
payments contemplated hereby to be made “in cash” shall be made by wire transfer
of immediately available funds in such coin or currency of the United States
of
America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and
private debts. All payments of cash and each delivery of shares of Common Stock
issuable to the Holder as contemplated hereby shall be made to the Holder to
an
account designated by the Holder to the Company and if the Holder has not
designated any such accounts at the address last appearing on the Debenture
Register of the Company as designated in writing by the Holder from time to
time; except that the Holder may designate, by notice to the Company, a
different delivery address for any one or more specific payments or
deliveries.
The
Holder of the Debenture, by acceptance hereof, agrees that this Debenture is
being acquired for investment and that such Holder will not offer, sell or
otherwise dispose of this Debenture or the Shares of Common Stock issuable
upon
conversion thereof except in compliance with the terms of the Securities
Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement and under circumstances
which will not result in a violation of the Securities Act or any applicable
state Blue Sky or foreign laws or similar laws relating to the sale of
securities.
This
Debenture shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of
the
State of New York. Each of the parties consents to the jurisdiction of the
federal courts whose districts encompass any part of the City of New York or
the
state courts of the State of New York sitting in the City and County of New
York
in connection with any dispute arising under this Agreement and hereby waives,
to the maximum extent permitted by law, any objection, including any objection
based on forum
non coveniens,
to the
bringing of any such proceeding in such jurisdictions. To the extent determined
by such court, the Company shall reimburse the Holder for any reasonable legal
fees and disbursements incurred by the Holder in enforcement of or protection
of
any of its rights under this Debenture or the Securities Purchase
Agreement.
The
following shall constitute an "Event of Default":
a. The
Company fails (i) in the payment of principal or interest on this Debenture
as
required to be paid in cash hereunder, (ii) in the issuance of shares of Common
Stock upon Conversion within five (5) business days from the date of delivery
of
the Notice of Conversion as provided pursuant to Section 2, and payment shall
not have been made or shares shall not have been delivered, as the case may
be,
for a period of two (2) business days following the payment due date or required
share delivery date or (iii) to pay when due any amounts payable by the Company
under the Torpedo Agreement; or
b. Any
of
the representations or warranties made by the Company herein, in the Securities
Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of __________
____,
2006 between the Company and the Investors therein (the "Registration Rights
Agreement"), or in any certificate or financial or other written statements
heretofore or hereafter furnished by the Company to in connection with the
execution and delivery of this Debenture or the Securities Purchase Agreement
or
Registration Rights Agreement, shall be false or misleading (including without
limitation by way of the misstatement of a material fact or the omission of
a
material fact) in any material respect at the time made; or
17
c. The
Company fails to issue shares of Common Stock to the Holder or to cause its
Transfer Agent to issue shares of Common Stock upon exercise by the Holder
of
the conversion rights of the Holder in accordance with the terms of this
Debenture, fails to transfer or to cause its Transfer Agent to transfer any
certificate for shares of Common Stock issued to the Holder upon conversion
of
this Debenture and when required by this Debenture or the Registration Rights
Agreement, and such transfer is otherwise lawful, or fails to remove any
restrictive legend or to cause its Transfer Agent to transfer any certificate
or
any shares of Common Stock issued to the Holder upon conversion of this
Debenture as and when required by this Debenture, the Agreement or the
Registration Rights Agreement and such legend removal is otherwise lawful,
and
any such failure shall continue uncured for five (5) business days after written
notice from the Holder of such failure; or
d. The
Company shall fail to perform or observe, in any material respect (i) any other
covenant, term, provision, condition, agreement or obligation of the Debenture,
provided that, other than in the case of such failure under Section 5 hereof,
as
to which no cure period shall apply, such failure shall continue uncured for
a
period of thirty (30) days after written notice from the holder of such failure,
or (ii) any covenant, term, provision, condition, agreement or obligation of
the
Company under the Securities Purchase Agreement or the Registration Rights
Agreement and such failure shall continue uncured for a period of either (a)
three (3) days after the occurrence of the Company’s failure under Section 4(d),
(e), (f), (h) or (i) of the Securities Purchase Agreement, or (b) thirty (30)
days after the occurrence of the Company’s failure under any other provision of
the Securities Purchase Agreement or of the Registration Rights Agreement,
as
the case may be; or
e. The
Company shall (1) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally
as
they mature; (2) make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or commence
proceedings for its dissolution; or (3) apply for or consent to the appointment
of a trustee, liquidator or receiver for its or for a substantial part of its
property or business; or
f. A
trustee, liquidator or receiver shall be appointed for the Company or for a
substantial part of its property or business without its consent and shall
not
be discharged within sixty (60) days after such appointment; or
g. Any
governmental agency or any court of competent jurisdiction at the instance
of
any governmental agency shall assume custody or control of the whole or any
substantial portion of the properties or assets of the Company and shall not
be
dismissed within sixty (60) days thereafter; or
h. Any
final
money judgment, writ or warrant of attachment, or similar process (including
an
arbitral determination), not subject to appeal, in excess of Fifty Thousand
($50,000) Dollars in the aggregate shall be entered or filed against the Company
or any of its properties or other assets and shall remain unpaid, unvacated,
unbonded or unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days or in any event later
than
five (5) days prior to the date of any proposed sale thereunder; or
i. Bankruptcy,
reorganization, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or other proceedings
for
relief under any bankruptcy law or any law for the relief of debtors shall
be
instituted by or against the Company and, if instituted against the Company,
shall not be dismissed within sixty (60) days after such institution or the
Company shall by any action or answer approve of, consent to, or acquiesce
in
any such proceedings or admit the material allegations of, or default in
answering a petition filed in any such proceeding; or
j. The
issuance of an order, ruling, finding or similar adverse determination by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the Secretary of State of the State of
Nevada, the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or any other
securities regulatory body (whether in the United States, Canada or elsewhere)
having proper jurisdiction that the Company and/or any of its past or present
directors or officers have committed a material violation of applicable
securities laws or regulations.
k. The
Company shall have its Common Stock suspended or delisted from an exchange
for a
period in excess of five (5) trading days.
18
Then,
or
at any time thereafter, the Company shall immediately give written notice of
the
occurrence of such Event of Default to the Holders of all Debentures then
outstanding, and in each and every such case, unless such Event of Default
shall
have been waived in writing by a majority in interest of the Holders of the
Debentures (which waiver shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent
default), then at the option of a majority in interest of the Holders and in
the
discretion of a majority in interest of the Holders, (i) the interest rate
applicable to the Debentures shall be increased to the lesser of eighteen
percent (18%) per annum and the maximum interest rate allowable under applicable
law, and (ii) the Holder may at its option and discretion declare this
Debenture, together with all accrued and unpaid interest (the “Acceleration
Amount”), to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand,
protest or notice of any kinds, all of which are hereby expressly waived,
anything herein or in any note or other instruments contained to the contrary
notwithstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a default under
Section 10(a)(ii) arising from a Conversion at the option of the Holder under
Section 2(a), (i) the Holder of the Debenture sought to be converted, acting
singly, shall have the sole and absolute discretion to increase the applicable
interest rate on the Debentures held by such Holder and/or to declare the
Debenture(s) held by such Holder to immediately due and payable, and (ii) the
Acceleration Amount shall be equal to 130% of the principal plus accrued and
unpaid interest. The Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that the
Acceleration Amount as so increased in the event of a default under Section
10(a)(ii) is reasonable and appropriate due to the inability to define the
financial hardship that the Company’s default would impose on the Holders. A
majority in interest of the Holders may immediately enforce any and all of
the
Holder's rights and remedies provided herein or any other rights or remedies
afforded by law.
Nothing
contained in this Debenture shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder
the
right to vote or to receive dividends or to consent or receive notice as a
shareholder in respect of any meeting of shareholders or any rights whatsoever
as a shareholder of the Company, unless and to the extent converted in
accordance with the terms hereof.
This
Debenture may be amended only by the written consent of the parties hereto.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the principal amount of this Debenture shall
automatically be reduced by any and all Conversion Amounts (to the extent that
the same relate to principal hereof). In the absence of manifest error, the
outstanding principal amount of the Debenture on the Company’s book and records
shall be the correct amount.
No
waivers or consents in regard to any provision of this Debenture may be given
other than by an instrument in writing signed by the Holder.

the conditions contained in the Debentures.
WHEREAS,
to
induce
the Investors to execute and deliver the Securities Purchase Agreement, the
Company has agreed to provide certain registration rights under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, or any
similar successor statute (collectively, the "Securities Act"), with respect
to
the Conversion Shares;
NOW,
THEREFORE, in
consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained herein and
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
are

hereof and who holds Debentures or Registrable Securities.
c. "Potential
Material Event" means any of the following: (i) the possession by the Company
of
material information not ripe for disclosure in a registration statement, which
shall be evidenced by determinations in good faith by the Board of Directors

the Company that disclosure of such information in the registration statement
would be detrimental to the business and affairs of the Company; or (ii) any
material engagement or activity by the Company which would, in the good faith
determination of the Board of Directors of the Company, be adversely affected
by
disclosure in a registration statement at such time, which determination shall
be accompanied by a good faith determination by the Board of Directors of the
Company that the registration statement would be materially misleading absent
the inclusion of such information.
22
d. "Register,"
"Registered," and "Registration" refer to a registration effected by preparing
and filing a Registration Statement or Statements in compliance with the
Securities Act and pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act or any

f. "Registration

Act.
g. “SEC”
means the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
2. Piggy-back
Registration.
From
and after the date that is ninety (90) days after the date of this Agreement
and
until the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, for so long as any of the
Registrable Securities are outstanding and are not the subject of an effective
registration statement, if the Company contemplates making an offering of Common
Stock (or other equity securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common
Stock) registered for sale under the Securities Act or proposes to file a
Registration Statement covering any of its securities other than (i) a
registration on Form S-8 or S-4, or any successor or similar forms; and (ii)
a
shelf registration under Rule 415 for the sole purpose of registering shares
to
be issued in connection with the acquisition of assets, the Company will at
each
such time give prompt written notice to the Holders’ Representative and the
Investors of its intention to do so and of the Investor’s rights under this
Agreement. Upon the written request of any Investor made within thirty (30)
days
after the receipt of any such notice (which request shall specify the
Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Holder and the
intended method of disposition thereof), the Company will use its best efforts
to effect the registration of all Registrable Securities which the Company
has
been so requested to register by the Investors, to the extent requisite to
permit the disposition (in accordance with the intended methods of disposition)
of the Registrable Securities by the Investors requesting registration, by
inclusion of such Registrable Securities in the Registration Statement which
covers the securities which the Company proposes to register; provided,
that if
the Company is unable to register the full amount of Registrable Securities
in
an “at the market offering” under Commission rules and regulations due to the
high percentage of the Company’s Common Stock the Registrable Securities
represents (giving effect to all other securities being registered in the
Registration Statement), then the Company may reduce, on a pro rata basis,
the
amount of Registrable Securities subject to the Registration Statement to a
lesser amount which equals the maximum number of Registrable Securities that
the
Company is permitted to register in an “at the market offering”; and
provided,
further,
that
if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any
Registrable Securities and prior to the effective date of the Registration
Statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company shall
determine for any reason either not to register or to delay registration of
such
Registrable Securities, the Company may, at its election, give written notice
of
such determination to the Holders’ Representative and the Investors requesting
registration and, thereupon, (i) in the case of a determination not to register,
the Company shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable
Securities in connection with such registration (but not from its obligation
to
pay the expenses of registration in connection therewith), and (ii) in the
case
of a determination to delay registering such Registrable Securities, shall
be
permitted to delay registering any Registrable Securities, for the same period
as the delay in registering such other securities.
23
3. Obligations
of the Company.
In
connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities, the Company
shall do each of the following:
(a)Prepare
and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments)
and
supplements to the Registration Statement as set forth in Section 2 and the
prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement as may be
necessary to keep the Registration Statement effective at all times during
the
period through the earliest of (i) the date that is five (5) years after the
last day of the calendar month following the month in which the Registration
Statement so filed is declared effective by the SEC, (ii) the date when the
Investors may sell all Registrable Securities under Rule 144, or (iii) the
date
the Investors no longer own any of the Registrable Securities (The “Registration
Period”), Registration Period, comply with the provisions of the Securities Act
with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company
covered by the Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable
Securities have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of
disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth in the Registration
Statement;
(b)The
Company shall permit a single firm of legal counsel designated by the Holders’
Representative (the “Investors’ Counsel”) to review drafts of the Registration
Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto a reasonable period of
time
(but not less than three (3) business days) prior to their filing with the
SEC,
and not file any document in a form to which such Investors’ Counsel reasonably
objects. If the Investors’ Counsel objects, the Company shall take under
advisement such objections and shall endeavor to promptly make such revisions
to
the Registration Statement (or ancillary documents and/or SEC filings in
connection therewith) as are necessary to satisfy the objections of the
Investors’ Counsel;
(c)Notify
the Holders’ Representative and the Investors’ Counsel, and any managing
underwriters immediately (and, in the case of (i)(A) below, not less than five
(5) days prior to the contemplated date of such filing) and (if requested by
any
the Holders' Representative) confirm such notice in writing no later than one
(1) business day following the day (i)(A) when a Prospectus or any Prospectus
supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement is proposed
to be filed; (B) whenever the SEC notifies the Company whether there will be
a
“review” of Registration Statement; (C) whenever the Company receives (or a
representative of the Company receives on its behalf) any oral or written
comments from the SEC relating to a Registration Statement (copies or, in the
case of oral comments, summaries of such comments shall be promptly furnished
by
the Company to the Holders’ Representative and the Investor’s Counsel); and (D)
with respect to the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment,
when
the same has become effective; (ii) of any request by the SEC or any other
Federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to the
Registration Statement or Prospectus or for additional information; (iii) of
the
issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement covering any or all of the Registrable Securities or
the
initiation of any Proceedings for that purpose; (iv) if at any time the Company
has actual knowledge that any of the representations or warranties of the
Company contained in any agreement (including any underwriting agreement)
contemplated hereby ceases to be true and correct in all material respects;
(v)
of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension
of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable
Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of
any
Proceeding for such purpose; and (vi) of the occurrence of any event that to
the
best knowledge of the Company makes any statement made in the Registration
Statement or Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that
requires any revisions to the Registration Statement, Prospectus or other
documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement or the Prospectus,
as the case may be, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material
fact
or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
were
made, not misleading. In addition, the Company shall respond to the SEC in
writing to comments on the Registration Statement by the SEC within fifteen
(15)
business days of the Company’s receipt thereof, plus any additional time
reasonably required by the Company’s independent auditors to respond to
accounting comments and, if requested by the Holders' Representative and the
Investors’ counsel, the Company shall furnish the Holders' Representative with
copies of all intended written responses to the comments contemplated in clause
(C) of this Section 3(c) not later than one (1) business day in advance of
the
filing of such responses with the SEC so that the Holders’ Representative and
the Investors’ Counsel shall have the opportunity to comment thereon;
24
(d)Furnish
to the Holders’ Representative and the Investors’ Counsel (i) promptly after the
same is prepared and publicly distributed, filed with the SEC, or received
by
the Company, one (1) copy of the Registration Statement, each preliminary
Prospectus and Prospectus, and each amendment or supplement thereto, and (ii)
if
so requested by any Investor, such number of copies of a Prospectus, and all
amendments and supplements thereto and such other documents, as such Investor
may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable
Securities owned by such Investor;
(e)As
promptly as practicable after becoming aware thereof, notify the Holders’
Representative of the happening of any event of which the Company has actual
knowledge, as a result of which the prospectus included in the Registration
Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact
or
omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
were
made, not misleading, and use its best efforts promptly to prepare a supplement
or amendment to the Registration Statement or other appropriate filing with
the
SEC to correct such untrue statement or omission, and deliver a number of copies
of such supplement or amendment to the Holders' Representative and each Investor
as such Investor may reasonably request;
(f) As
promptly as practicable (and in any event not later than one (1) business day)
after becoming aware thereof, notify the Holders’ Representative of the issuance
by the SEC of a Notice of Effectiveness or any notice of effectiveness or any
stop order or other suspension of the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement at the earliest possible time;
(g) Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if at any time or from time to time after the date of
effectiveness of a Registration Statement, the Company notifies the Holders’
Representative in writing of the existence of a Potential Material Event, the
Investors shall not offer or sell any Registrable Securities, or engage in
any
other transaction involving or relating to the Registrable Securities, from
the
time of the giving of notice with respect to a Potential Material Event until
such Investor receives written notice from the Company that such Potential
Material Event either has been disclosed to the public or no longer constitutes
a Potential Material Event; provided,
however,
that
the Company may not so suspend the right to such Holders of Registrable
Securities for more than two twenty (20) business day periods in the aggregate
during any 12-month period ("Suspension Period") with at least a ten (10)
business day interval between such periods, during the periods the Registration
Statement is required to be in effect;
(h) Use
its
reasonable efforts to secure and maintain the designation of all the Registrable
Securities covered by the Registration Statement on the NASDAQ/National Market
System or the "OTC Bulletin Board Market" or any successor thereto of the
National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations System
("NASDAQ") within the meaning of Rule 11Aa2-1 of the SEC under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and the quotation of
the
Registrable Securities on The NASDAQ National Market System; and further use
its
efforts to arrange for at least two market makers to register with the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD") as such with respect to such
Registrable Securities;
(i) Provide
a
transfer agent and registrar, which may be a single entity, for the Registrable
Securities not later than one (1) business day after the effective date of
the
Registration Statement;
(j) Cooperate
with the Investors to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of
certificates for the Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to the
Registration Statement and enable such certificates for the Registrable
Securities to be in such denominations or amounts as the case may be, as the
Investors may reasonably request, and, within five (5) business days after
a
Registration Statement which includes Registrable Securities is ordered
effective by the SEC, the Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel
selected by the Company to deliver, to the transfer agent for the Registrable
Securities (with copies to the Investors whose Registrable Securities are
included in such Registration Statement) an appropriate instruction and opinion
of such counsel;
25
(k) Take
all
other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate disposition by
the
Investor of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement;
(l) Not
take,
or omit to take, any actions that would preclude the filing or effectiveness
of
the Registration Statement or require the withdrawal of the Registration
Statement;
(m) If
the
Registration Statement has been filed but has not been declared effective by
the
SEC, not complete any acquisitions or business combinations until
the
SEC has declared effective the Registration Statement that registers the
Registrable Securities.
4. Payments
by the Company.
Unless
the Company's performance is waived in writing by the Holders'
Representative:
(i) If
the
Company fails to satisfy its obligations under Sections 2 or 3, then the Company
shall immediately pay to the Investors without demand therefor a cash amount
equal to 2% per month of the outstanding principal amount of the Debentures
and,
until such time as all such obligations shall have been satisfied, the same
amount shall accrue and become payable to the Investors within three days on
each subsequent month until such obligations shall have been satisfied. In
light
of the difficulty of ascertaining the amount of damage that the Investors will
suffer as a result of the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations under
Sections 2 or 3, all amounts payable under this Section 4 shall be payable
as
liquidated damages, and not as a penalty. The Company shall keep the
Registration Statement effective throughout the Registration
Period.
(ii) The
parties acknowledge that the damages which may be incurred by the Investors
if
the Company fails to satisfy any of its obligations under Sections 2 or 3 may
be
difficult to ascertain. The parties agree that the payments to be paid to the
Investors under this Section 4 represent a reasonable estimate on the part
of
the parties, as of the date of this Agreement, of the amount of such
damages.
5. Obligations
of the Investors.
In
connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities, the Investors
shall have the following obligations:
(a) It
shall
be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the
registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable
Securities of a particular Investor that such Investor shall furnish to the
Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held
by
it, and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held
by
it, as shall be reasonably required to effect the registration of such
Registrable Securities and shall execute such documents in connection with
such
registration as the Company may reasonably request. At least ten (10) business
days prior to the first anticipated filing date of the Registration Statement,
the Company shall notify each Investor of the information the Company requires
from each such Investor (the "Requested Information") if such Investor elects
to
have any of such Investor's Registrable Securities included in the Registration
Statement. If at least two (2) business days prior to the filing date the
Company has not received the Requested Information from an Investor (a
"Non-Responsive Investor"), then the Company may file the Registration Statement
without including Registrable Securities of such Non-Responsive
Investor;
(b) Each
Investor, by such Investor's acceptance of the Registrable Securities, agrees
to
cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection
with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement hereunder, unless
such Investor has notified the Company in writing of such Investor's election
to
exclude all of such Investor's Registrable Securities from the Registration
Statement; and
(c) Each
Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the
happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(d) or 3(e), above,
such Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities
pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities
until such Investor's receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended
prospectus contemplated by Section 3(d) or 3(e) and, if so directed by the
Company, such Investor shall deliver to the Company (at the expense of the
Company) or destroy (and deliver to the Company a certificate of destruction)
all copies in such Investor's possession, of the prospectus covering such
Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such
notice.
26
(d) Each
holder of Registrable Securities that sells Registrable Securities pursuant
to a
registration under this Agreement agrees that in connection with registration
as
follows:
(i) Such
seller shall cooperate as reasonably requested by the Company with the Company
in connection with the preparation of the registration statement, and for as
long as the Company is obligated to file and keep effective the registration
statement, shall provide to the Company, in writing, for use in the registration
statement, all such information regarding such seller and its plan of
distribution of the Registrable Securities as may reasonably be necessary to
enable the Company to prepare the registration statement and prospectus covering
the Registrable Securities, to maintain the currency and effectiveness thereof
and otherwise to comply with all applicable requirements of law in connection
therewith; and
(ii) During
such time as such seller may be engaged in a distribution of the Registrable
Securities, such seller shall comply with Rules 10b-6 and 10b-7 promulgated
under the Securities Exchange Act and pursuant thereto it shall, among other
things; (x) not engage in any stabilization activity in connection with the
securities of the Company in contravention of such rules; (y) distribute the
Registrable Securities under the registration statement solely in the manner
described in the registration statement; and (z) cease distribution of such
Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement upon written
notice from the Company that the prospectus covering the Registrable Securities
contains any untrue statement of a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.
6. Expenses
of Registration.
(a) All
reasonable expenses (other than underwriting discounts and commissions of the
Investors) incurred for the Registration Statement covering the Registrable
Securities applicable to the Debentures shall be borne by the Company, up to
an
aggregate amount of $50,000 in connection with registrations, filings or
qualifications pursuant to Sections 2 and 3, a fee for the Investors’ Counsel of
not more than $5,000 and including, without limitation, all registration,
listing, and qualifications fees, printers, legal and accounting fees and the
fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company.
(b) Neither
the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has, as of the date hereof, nor shall
the Company nor any of its subsidiaries, on or after the date of this Agreement,
entered into any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent
with the rights granted to the Investors in this Agreement or otherwise
conflicts with the provisions hereof. Except as disclosed in the Securities
Purchase Agreement or the other documents entered into simultaneously therewith,
neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has previously entered into
any
agreement granting any registration rights with respect to any of its securities
to any Person. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, without the
written consent of the Investors holding a majority of the Registrable
Securities, the Company shall not grant to any person the right to request
the
Company to register any securities of the Company under the Securities Act
unless the rights so granted are subject in all respects to the prior rights
in
full of the Investors set forth herein, and are not otherwise in conflict or
inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents.
7. Indemnification.
In the
event any Registrable Securities are included in a Registration Statement under
this Agreement:
(a) To
the
extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless the
Holders’ Representative, the Investor’s Counsel and each Investor who holds such
Registrable Securities, the directors, managers, partners, stockholders and
members, if any, of the Holders’ Representative, the Investor’s Counsel or such
Investor, the officers and employees, if any, of the Holders’ Representative,
the Investor’s Counsel or such Investor, and each person, if any, who controls
the Holders’ Representative, the Investors Counsel or any Investor within the
meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each, an "Indemnified Person"
or "Indemnified Party"), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
expenses (joint or several) incurred (collectively, "Claims") to which any
of
them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise,
insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or
threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the
following statements, omissions or violations in the Registration Statement,
or
any post-effective amendment thereof, or any prospectus included therein: (i)
any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained
in
the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereof or the
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading,
(ii)
any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained
in
the final prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any
amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the SEC) or the omission or alleged
omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements
made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein
were made, not misleading or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the
Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or
any
rule or regulation under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state
securities law (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) being,
collectively, "Violations"). Subject to clause (b) of this Section 7, the
Company shall reimburse the Investors, promptly as such expenses are incurred
and are due and payable, for any legal fees or other reasonable expenses
incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification
agreement contained in this Section 7(a) shall not (I) apply to a Claim arising
out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity
with information furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of any
Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of
the
Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto,
if
such prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section
3(b) hereof; (II) be available to the extent such Claim is based on a failure
of
the Investor to deliver or cause to be delivered the prospectus made available
by the Company; (III) apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such
settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; or (IV) apply to any violation
or
alleged violation by an Indemnified Person of the Securities Act, the Exchange
Act, any state securities laws or any rule or regulation under the Securities
Act, the Exchange Act, or any state securities laws. Each Investor will
indemnify the Company and its officers, directors and agents (each, an
"Indemnified Person" or "Indemnified Party") against any claims arising out
of
or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with
information furnished in writing to the Company, by or on behalf of such
Investor, expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the
Registration Statement, subject to such limitations and conditions as are
applicable to the Indemnification provided by the Company to this Section 7.
Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any
investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive
the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors.
27
(b) Promptly
after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section
7
of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action),
such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in respect
thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 7,
deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof
and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to
the
extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying
party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel
mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person
or
the Indemnified Party, as the case may be. In case any such action is brought
against any Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party, and it notifies the
indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will
be
entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with
any other indemnifying party similarly notified, assume the defense thereof,
subject to the provisions herein stated and after notice from the indemnifying
party to such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party of its election so to
assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such
Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 7 for any legal
or
other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses subsequently incurred by such
Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof
other than reasonable costs of investigation, unless the indemnifying party
shall not pursue the action to its final conclusion. The Indemnified Person
or
Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such
action and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses of such counsel shall not be at the expense of the
indemnifying party if the indemnifying party has assumed the defense of the
action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person or
Indemnified Party. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying
party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall
not
relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person
or
Indemnified Party under this Section 7, except to the extent that the
indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action. The
indemnification required by this Section 7 shall be made by periodic payments
of
the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as such
expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred and is due and
payable.
8. Contribution.
To the
extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited
by
law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect
to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 7 to the
fullest extent permitted by law; provided,
however,
that
(a) no contribution shall be made under circumstances where the maker would
not
have been liable for indemnification under the fault standards set forth in
Section 7; (b) no seller of Registrable Securities guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any seller of Registrable Securities
who
was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation; and (c) contribution by
any
seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount
of
proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable
Securities.
9. Reports
under Exchange Act.
With a
view to making available to the Investors the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated
under the Securities Act or any other similar rule or regulation of the SEC
that
may at any time permit the Investors to sell securities of the Company to the
public without registration ("Rule 144"), the Company agrees to:
a. make
and
keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined
in
Rule 144;
b. file
with
the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the
Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act;
c. furnish
to each Investor so long as such Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly
upon request, (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with
the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act,
(ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and
such other reports and documents so filed by the Company and (iii) such other
information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investors to sell
such
securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration; and
d.
cause
its counsel to deliver to its transfer agent such opinions of law as shall
be
required to remove restrictive legends on the shares to be sold in the standard
form then employed for such purpose by such counsel or in such other form as
is
reasonably acceptable to such transfer agent.
10. Amendment
of Registration Rights.
Any
provision of this Agreement may be amended and the observance thereof may be
waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively
or
prospectively), only with the written consent of the Company and Investors
who
hold a fifty (50%) percent interest of the Registrable Securities. Any amendment
or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 10 shall be binding upon
each
Investor and the Company.
28
11. Appointment
and Indemnification of Holders’ Representative.
Each of
the Investors hereby appoints as the Holders’ Representative Divine Capital
Markets, LLC to so act until such time as all Registrable Securities have become
Registered and there shall be no Debentures issued and outstanding, or such
time
as a successor to the then-acting Holders’ Representative is appointed in
writing signed by the Investors representing greater than 50% of the
then-outstanding Debentures and Registrable Securities. The Holders’
Representative shall have full discretion and authority, without consultation
with the Holders, to accept and give notices on behalf of the Holders, to
communicate with the Holders at such times and in such manner as the Holders’
Representative in its discretion determines is appropriate and to grant
extensions of deadlines or waive any payment obligations set forth in Sections
2
and 3 hereof. The Holders' Representative shall not have discretion or authority
to exercise any investment discretion over the Debentures, including causing
the
conversion of any Debentures, absent a Holder's express written authority.
Notwithstanding
any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in the Securities
Purchase Agreement or the Debentures, the Holders’ Representative shall not have
any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor
shall the Holders’ Representative have or be deemed to have any fiduciary
relationship with any Holder, and no implied covenants, functions,
responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this
Agreement or the Securities Purchase Agreement or Debentures or otherwise exist
against the Holders’ Representative. The Holders shall indemnify upon demand the
Holders’ Representative (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the
Company and without limiting the obligation of the Company to do so under
Section 7 hereof or under any other agreement or applicable law), pro
rata,
and
hold harmless the Holders’ Representative from and against any and all
against
any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (joint or several) incurred
(collectively, "Holders’ Representative’s Claims") incurred
by it; provided,
however,
that no
Holder shall be liable for the payment to the Holders’ Representative of any
portion of such Holders’ Representative’s Claims to the extent determined in a
final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have
resulted from the Holders’ Representative’s own gross negligence or willful
misconduct; provided,
however,
that no
action taken in accordance with the directions of the Holders shall be deemed
to
constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section
11. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Holder shall reimburse the
Holders’ Representative upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Holders’ Representative in connection
with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification,
amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or
otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under,
this Agreement, the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Debentures, or any
document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Holders’
Representative is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the
Company.
12. Miscellaneous.
a. A
person
or entity is deemed to be a holder of Registrable Securities whenever such
person or entity owns of record such Registrable Securities. If the Company
receives conflicting instructions, notices or elections from two or more persons
or entities with respect to the same Registrable Securities, the Company shall
act upon the basis of instructions, notice or election received from the
registered owner of such Registrable Securities.
b. Notices
required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be given in the manner
contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement, (i) if to the Company or
to
the Investors, to their respective address contemplated by the Securities
Purchase Agreement, and (iii) if to any other Investor, at such address as
such
Investor shall have provided in writing to the Company, or at such other address
as each such party furnishes by notice given in accordance with this Section
12(b).
c. Failure
of any party to exercise any right or remedy under this Agreement or otherwise,
or delay by a party in exercising such right or remedy, shall not operate as
a
waiver thereof.
d. This
Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws
of
the State of New York for contracts to be wholly performed in such state and
without giving effect to the principles thereof regarding the conflict of laws.
Each of the parties consents to the jurisdiction of the federal courts whose
districts encompass any part of the City of New York or the state courts of
the
State of New York sitting in the City of New York in connection with any dispute
arising under this Agreement and hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted
by law, any objection, including any objection based on forum
non coveniens,
to the
bringing of any such proceeding in such jurisdictions. To the extent determined
by such court, the Company shall reimburse the Buyer for any reasonable legal
fees and disbursements incurred by the Buyer in enforcement of or protection
of
any of its rights under this Agreement.
29
e. If
any
provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity
or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement or the validity or
enforceability of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction.
f. Subject
to the requirements of Section 9 hereof, this Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of each of the parties
hereto.
g. All
pronouns and any variations thereof refer to the masculine, feminine or neuter,
singular or plural, as the context may require.
h. The
headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall
not
limit or otherwise affect the meaning thereof.
i. This
Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall
be
deemed an original but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement.
This Agreement, once executed by a party, may be delivered to the other party
hereto by telephone line facsimile transmission of a copy of this Agreement
bearing the signature of the party so delivering this Agreement.
j. The
Company acknowledges that any failure by the Company to perform its obligations
under Sections 2 or 3 or any delay in such performance could result in loss
to
the Investors, and the Company agrees that, in addition to any other liability
the Company may have by reason of such failure or delay, the Company shall
be
liable for all direct damages caused by any such failure or delay, unless the
same is the result of force majeure. Neither party shall be liable for
consequential damages.
k. This
Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect
to the subject matter hereof. There are no restrictions, promises, warranties
or
undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to herein. This Agreement
supersedes all prior agreements and understandings among the parties hereto
with
respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may be amended only by
an
instrument in writing signed by the party to be charged with enforcement
thereof.
