provided herein), in an aggregate principal amount of up to Five Million, Seven
Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars (U.S. $5,700,000) (the "Debentures").
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Company promises to pay to Portside
Growth & Opportunity Fund Ltd., the holder hereof, or its registered assigns
(the "Holder"), the principal sum of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) on May

rate of 6% per annum which shall be cumulative, accrue daily from the date of
issuance of this Debenture and be due and payable in arrears on the first day of
each Quarterly Period commencing with the Quarterly Period immediately following
the date of issuance of this Debenture (each, an "Interest Payment Date"). If

Date is not a Business Day, then the Interest Payment shall be due and payable
on the Business Day immediately following such Interest Payment Date. Subject to
the limitations in Sections 11 and 26, interest shall be payable by the issuance
of shares of Common Stock ("Interest Shares") to the Holder or, at the option of

holder of Debentures at least five Business Days prior to the applicable
Interest Payment Date that such Interest Payments shall be made in cash.
Interest Shares shall be paid in a number of fully paid and nonassessable shares
(rounded up or down to the nearest whole share) of Common Stock equal to the

average of the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the five consecutive
Business Days ending on and including the third Business Day immediately
preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date (the "Interest Share Conversion
Rate"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall be required to make a
Cash Interest Payment on any Interest Payment Date if (a) any event constituting
an Event of Default or an event that with the passage of time and without being
cured would constitute an Event of Default, has occurred and is continuing on
the Interest Payment Date or any date which is within 10 Business Days prior to
the Interest Payment Date, unless otherwise consented to in writing by the
holder of the Debenture entitled to receive such Interest Payment or (b) from
and after the time that any Registration Statement (as defined in the
Registration Rights Agreement, the "Registration Statement") is required to be
effective, such Registration Statement is not then effective and available for
the resale of all of the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration
Rights Agreement) on the Interest Payment Date or each date which is within 10
Business Days prior to the Interest Payment Date. Any accrued and unpaid
interest which is not paid within five (5) Business Days of the Interest Payment
Date on which such payment of interest was due shall bear interest at the rate
of 14.0% per annum from such Interest Payment Date until the same is paid in
full (or, if less, the maximum interest rate then permitted by applicable law)
(the "Default Interest").
Interest Payments and payments of principal will be paid only
to the person in whose name this Debenture (or one or more predecessor
Debentures) is registered on the records of the Company regarding registration
and transfers of the Debentures (the "Debenture Register").

Holder hereof may convert a portion of the Outstanding Principal Amount of this
Debenture if such portion is an integral multiple of $1,000. If this Debenture
remains outstanding on the Maturity Date, then this Debenture shall be redeemed
or converted into shares of Common Stock by the Company in accordance with
Section 5(a). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, concurrent with

requirements set forth in this Debenture concerning payment of interest in the
form of Interest Shares are satisfied, or cash as determined by the Company) to
such holder all accrued and unpaid interest on the Outstanding Principal Amount
then being converted from the last date on which interest had been paid on such
Outstanding Principal Amount through the Conversion Date.
(b) Partial Conversion of Debenture. If this Debenture is
converted in part, the remaining portion of this Debenture not so converted
shall remain entitled to the conversion rights provided herein.
(c) Conversion Price for Holder Converted Shares. The Outstanding
Principal Amount of this Debenture that is converted into shares of Common Stock
shall be convertible into the number of shares of Common Stock which results
from application of the following formula:
P
----------------
Conversion Price
P = Outstanding Principal Amount of this Debenture
submitted for conversion
The number of shares of Common Stock into which this Debenture
hereto may be converted pursuant to the foregoing formula is hereafter referred
to as the "Conversion Rate."
(d) Mechanics of Conversion. The conversion of this Debenture
shall be conducted in the following manner:
(i) Holder's Delivery Requirements. To convert this Debenture
(in whole or in part) into full shares of Common Stock on any date, the Holder
shall (A) transmit by facsimile (or otherwise physically deliver), for receipt
on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City Time, on such date, a copy of a properly
completed notice of conversion executed by the Holder in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit I (the "Conversion Notice") to the Company and the Company's
designated transfer agent (the "Transfer Agent") and (B) surrender this
Debenture to a common carrier for delivery to the Company as soon as practicable
following such date.
(ii) Company's Response. Upon receipt by the Company of a copy
of a Conversion Notice, the Company shall (A) as soon as practicable, but in any
event within two (2) Business Days, send, via facsimile, a confirmation of
receipt of such Conversion Notice to such holder and the Transfer Agent, which
confirmation shall constitute an instruction to the Transfer Agent to process
such Conversion Notice in accordance with the terms herein and (B) then, on or
7
before the second (2nd) Business Day following the date of receipt by the
Company of such Conversion Notice (the "Share Delivery Date"), (x) issue and
deliver to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate,
registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares
of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled, or (y) in the case of a
public resale of such Conversion Shares in accordance with the provisions of the
Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions, provided the Transfer Agent is
participating in The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities
Transfer Program and, if required by DTC, the holder provides a customary
representation letter to DTC, upon the request of the holder, credit such
aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the holder shall be entitled
to the holder's designee's balance account with DTC through its Deposit
Withdrawal Agent Commission system. If the specified principal amount submitted
for conversion is less than the then Outstanding Principal Amount of this
Debenture, then the Company shall, as soon as practicable using reasonable best
efforts, and in no event later than five Business Days after receipt of the
Debenture (the "Debenture Delivery Date") and at its own expense, issue and
deliver to the holder a new Debenture representing the Outstanding Principal
Amount not converted. The effective date of conversion (the "Conversion Date")
shall be deemed to be the date on which the Company receives by facsimile the
Conversion Notice, and the Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as
the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock on such date.
(iii) Dispute Resolution. In the case of a dispute as to the
determination of the Closing Sale Price, the Conversion Price or the arithmetic
calculation of the Conversion Rate, the Company shall instruct the Transfer
Agent to issue to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that is not
disputed and shall transmit an explanation of the disputed determinations or
arithmetic calculations to the Holder via facsimile within two (2) Business Days
of receipt of the Holder's Conversion Notice or other date of determination. If
the Holder and the Company are unable to agree upon the determination of the
Closing Sale Price, the Conversion Price or arithmetic calculation of the
Conversion Rate within two (2) Business Days of such disputed determination or
arithmetic calculation being transmitted to the Holder, then the Company shall
within two (2) Business Days submit via facsimile (A) the disputed determination
of the Closing Sale Price to an independent, reputable investment bank selected
by the Company and approved by the holders of at least 60% of the Outstanding
Principal Amount of the Debentures issued on the Original Issuance Date then
outstanding or (B) the disputed determination of the Conversion Price or the
disputed arithmetic calculation of the Conversion Rate to the Company's
independent, outside accountant. The Company shall cause the investment bank or
the accountant, as the case may be, to perform the determinations or
calculations and notify the Company and the holders of the results no later than
ten (10) Business Days from the time it receives the disputed determinations or
calculations. Such investment bank's or accountant's determination or
calculation, as the case may be, shall be binding upon all parties absent
manifest error.
(iv) Company's Failure to Timely Convert.
(A) If (x) within five (5) Business Days after the
Company's receipt of the facsimile copy of a Conversion Notice the Company has
failed to issue and deliver a certificate to a Holder or credit the Holder's
8
designee's balance account with DTC, in accordance with Section 4(d) hereof for
the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the
Holder's conversion of this Debenture or (y) within five (5) Business Days of
the Company's receipt of this Debenture the Company has failed to issue and
deliver a Debenture representing the principal amount of this Debenture not so
converted, then in addition to all other available remedies which such holder
may pursue hereunder and under the Securities Purchase Agreement (including
indemnification pursuant to Section 8 thereof), the Company shall pay additional
damages to such holder for each day after the Share Delivery Date that such
conversion is not timely effected and/or each day after the Debenture Delivery
Date that this Debenture is not delivered in an amount equal to 0.05% of the
product of (I) the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock not issued to the
holder on or prior to the Share Delivery Date and to which such holder is
entitled as set forth in the applicable Conversion Notice and, in the event the
Company has failed to deliver a Debenture to the holder on or prior to the
Debenture Delivery Date, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of this Debenture as of the Debenture Delivery Date and (II) the
Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Share Delivery Date, in the case
of the failure to deliver Common Stock, or the Debenture Delivery Date, in the
case of failure to deliver a Debenture. The foregoing notwithstanding, the
damages set forth in this Section 4(d)(iv) shall be stayed with respect to the
number of shares of Common Stock for which there is a good faith dispute being
resolved pursuant to Section 4(d)(iii), pending the resolution of such dispute.
(B) If for any reason a holder has not received all
of the shares of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled prior to the
tenth (10th) Business Day after the Share Delivery Date with respect to a
conversion of this Debenture, then the Holder, upon written notice to the
Company, with a copy to the Transfer Agent, may void its Conversion Notice;
provided that the voiding of the Holder's Conversion Notice shall not affect the
Company's obligations to make any payments which have accrued prior to the date
of such notice pursuant to Section 4(d)(iv)(A) or otherwise.
(e) No Fractional Shares. The Company shall not issue any
fraction of a share of Common Stock upon any conversion. If the issuance would
result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company
shall round such fraction of a share of Common Stock up or down to the nearest
whole share.
5. Redemption, Conversion and Defeasement.
(a) Mandatory Redemption and Conversion at Maturity.
(i) If (A) this Debenture remains outstanding on the Maturity
Date, (B) the Maturity Date Conversion Conditions shall have been satisfied or
waived in writing by the Holder and (C) the Company shall have delivered to the
Holder a Maturity Date Election Notice in the manner provided in Section
5(a)(ii), the Company shall convert, without the Holder being required to give a
Conversion Notice (a "Maturity Date Mandatory Conversion"), the amount of the
Outstanding Principal Amount of this Debenture designated for conversion in the
Maturity Date Election Notice less any amount of the Outstanding Principal
Amount that has been converted by the Holder pursuant to Section 4(a) between
9
the date of delivery of the Maturity Date Election Notice and the date on which
a Maturity Date Mandatory Conversion is effected, into the number of fully paid,
validly issued and nonassessable shares of Common Stock, which results from
application of the following formula:
P
------------------
Maturity Conversion Price
P = Outstanding Principal Amount of this Debenture
subject to the Maturity Date Mandatory Conversion
(ii) If the Company desires to effect a Maturity Date
Mandatory Conversion, then on or prior to the date which is 60 trading days
prior to the Maturity Date, the Company shall deliver written notice to the
Holder (a "Maturity Date Election Notice"), which Maturity Date Election Notice
shall state (x) the Outstanding Principal Amount of this Debenture the Company
has elected to convert on the Maturity Date pursuant to a Maturity Date
Mandatory Conversion, which amount shall not exceed fifty percent (50%) of the
Outstanding Principal Amount of this Debenture on the date immediately preceding
the delivery of the Maturity Date Election Notice and (y) the Outstanding
Principal Amount of this Debenture the Company has elected to redeem on the
Maturity Date pursuant to a Maturity Date Mandatory Redemption (as defined
below). If the Company has elected more than one of the Maturity Date Mandatory
Conversion and Maturity Date Mandatory Redemption with respect to the Maturity
Date, then the Company shall redeem the Outstanding Principal Amount of this
Debenture and/or convert the Outstanding Principal Amount of this Debenture pro
rata from the Holders of Debentures then outstanding (based on the Outstanding
Principal Amount of this Debenture on the Issuance Date relative to the total
Outstanding Principal Amount issued to all Holders on the Issuance Date (such
relative amount being referred to herein as each such Holder's "Maturity
Allocation Percentage")). In the event that any initial Holder of this Debenture
shall sell or otherwise transfer any portion of this Debenture, then the
transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such Holder's Maturity Date
Allocation Percentage. If the Company fails to deliver to the Holder a Maturity
Date Election Notice at least 60 trading days prior to the Maturity Date, then
the Company shall be deemed to have elected a Maturity Date Mandatory Redemption
for the entire Outstanding Principal Amount of this Debenture.
(iii) In the event there is a Maturity Date Mandatory
Conversion and one or more Price Failure Dates occur during the Maturity
Measuring Period, the Company shall (A) pay on the Maturity Date, in addition to
the payment of the Maturity Date Redemption Price to be paid to the holder
pursuant to Section 5(b), an amount equal to the product of (x) the quotient of
the aggregate number of Price Failure Dates divided by 40 and (y) the Maturity
Date Redemption Price that would have been paid if the Company had not elected a
Maturity Date Mandatory Conversion with respect to the Outstanding Principal
Amount of this Debenture subject to the Maturity Date Mandatory Conversion (the
"Price Failure Payment"), and (B) shall reduce the number of shares of Common
Stock deliverable on the Maturity Date by the product of (x) the quotient of the
aggregate number of Price Failure Dates divided by 40 and (y) the number of
shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable on the Maturity Date pursuant to
the Maturity Date Mandatory Conversion.
10
(iv) If the Company has elected a Maturity Date Mandatory
Conversion, then the Outstanding Principal Amount of this Debenture subject
thereto shall be converted at the Maturity Conversion Price as if the Holder had
delivered a Conversion Notice with respect to such Outstanding Principal Amount
on the Maturity Date. Promptly following the Maturity Date, the Holder shall
surrender this Debenture to the Company. If the Company has elected a Maturity
Date Mandatory Conversion and the Holder of this Debenture has not received all
of the shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled and/or the Company
has failed to pay the Maturity Date Redemption Price and/or any portion of a
Price Failure Payment in a timely manner as described above, then the Maturity
Date shall be automatically extended until the date the Holder receives such
shares of Common Stock and/or Maturity Date Redemption Price and/or Price
Failure Payment, as applicable, and shall be further extended for as long as an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or an event shall have
occurred and be continuing which with the passage of time and the failure to
cure would result in an Event of Default and during any such extended period,
the Holder shall have the right to convert at any time and from time to time all
or any portion of the Outstanding Principal Amount of this Debenture that is
subject to a Maturity Date Mandatory Conversion into shares of Common Stock
pursuant to Section 4 at the lower of (A) the Maturity Conversion Price and (B)
the Default Conversion Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section 5(a), the Holder may convert the Outstanding Principal Amount of this
Debenture (including the Outstanding Principal Amount with respect to which the
Company has elected a Maturity Date Mandatory Conversion or has elected a
Maturity Date Mandatory Redemption), but subject to Section 11, into shares of
Common Stock pursuant to Section 4 on or prior to the date immediately preceding
the Maturity Date.
(v) In the event a Holder delivers a Conversion Notice to the
Company after such Holder's receipt of a Maturity Date Election Notice and the
Company has elected in such Maturity Date Election Notice both of the Maturity
Date Mandatory Conversion and Maturity Date Mandatory Redemption, then the
Outstanding Principal Amount covered by such Conversion Notice shall be
deducted, first, from the Outstanding Principal Amount designated by the Company
as being subject to a Maturity Date Mandatory Conversion in the Maturity Date
Election Notice, and then from the Outstanding Principal Amount designated by
the Company as being subject to a Maturity Date Mandatory Redemption in such
Maturity Date Election Notice.
(b) Mandatory Redemption at Maturity. If this Debenture remains
outstanding on the Maturity Date, the Company shall redeem (a "Maturity Date
Mandatory Redemption") the Outstanding Principal Amount of this Debenture that
is not subject to a Maturity Date Mandatory Conversion for an amount in cash
(the "Maturity Date Redemption Price") equal to the Outstanding Principal Amount
of the Debenture not converted into shares of Common Stock pursuant to a
Maturity Date Mandatory Conversion, or otherwise, plus accrued and unpaid
interest thereon. The Maturity Date Redemption Price shall be paid on the
Maturity Date to the Holder by wire transfer of immediately available funds to
an account designated in writing by such Holder. Promptly following payment of
the Maturity Date Redemption Price, the Holder shall surrender this Debenture to
the Company.
(c) Payment Failures If the Company fails to make any payment of a
Maturity Date Redemption Price and/or fails to make any Price Failure Payment,
11
then in addition to any remedy the Holder may have under this Debenture, the
Securities Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, until the
Maturity Date Redemption Price and/or Price Failure Payment, as applicable, is
paid in full, (x) the Maturity Date Redemption Price and/or the amount of any
Price Failure Payment, as applicable, payable in respect of such unpaid Maturity
Date Redemption Price and/or unpaid Price Failure Payment shall bear interest at
the rate of 1.5% per month, prorated for partial months, and (y) the Holder
shall have the option to require the Company to convert any or all of the
Outstanding Principal Amount of this Debenture subject to redemption and for
which the Maturity Date Redemption Price (together with any interest thereon)
has not been paid and/or any amount of a Price Failure Payment (together with
any interest thereon) that has not been paid, into a number of shares of Common
Stock equal to the quotient of the Maturity Date Redemption Price (together with
any interest thereon) and/or the Price Failure Payment (together with any
interest thereon), as applicable, divided by the Default Conversion Price.
(d) Trading Restrictions. On each trading day during the Maturity
Measuring Period, the Holder shall not sell (including short sales) shares of
Common Stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the trading volume of
the Common Stock on the Principal Market on such trading day.
(e) [Intentionally Omitted].
6. Anti-dilution Adjustments to Conversion Price. The Conversion Price
will be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 6:
(a) Anti-dilution Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Issuance of
Common Stock. If and whenever on or after the Closing Date and prior to the
twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company issues or sells,
or in accordance with this Section 6(a) is deemed to have issued or sold, any
shares of Common Stock (but excluding shares of Common Stock: (v) deemed to have
been issued by the Company in connection with an Approved Stock Plan; (w) deemed
to have been issued upon issuance of the Debentures or the Warrants, or issued
upon conversion of the Debentures or exercise of the Warrants; (x) issued upon
exercise of Options or Convertible Securities which are outstanding on the date
immediately preceding the Closing Date, provided that such issuance of shares of
Common Stock upon exercise of such Options or Convertible Securities is made
pursuant to the terms of such Options or Convertible Securities in effect on the
date immediately preceding the Closing Date, such Options or Convertible
Securities are not amended after the date immediately preceding the Closing Date
other than with respect to Options originally issued pursuant to an Approved
Stock Plan and the purchase or exercise price provided for in any such Options,
the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue, conversion,
exchange or exercise of any such Convertible Securities, or the rate at which
any Convertible Securities are convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable
for Common Stock does not change at any time after the Original Issuance Date;
(y) issued to the public pursuant to an underwritten offering registered
pursuant to the Securities Act (but in all events excluding offerings pursuant
to "equity lines" or similar products); and (z) issued pursuant to a Strategic
Financing ((v) through (z) collectively "Excluded Issuances")) for a
consideration per share (the "New Securities Issuance Price") less than the
Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such time (each such sale or
issuance, a "Dilutive Issuance"), then concurrent with such Dilutive Issuance,
12
the Conversion Price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to the
New Securities Issuance Price. If and whenever on or after the twelve (12) month
anniversary of the Closing Date and prior to the Maturity Date, the Company
issues or sells, or in accordance with this Section 6(a) is deemed to have
issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock (but excluding shares of Common Stock
issued or deemed to have been issued pursuant to any Excluded Issuance) in a
Dilutive Issuance, then concurrent with such Dilutive Issuance, the Conversion
Price then in effect shall be reduced to a price (rounded to the nearest cent)
equal to the product of (A) the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to
such Dilutive Issuance and (B) the quotient determined by dividing (1) the sum
of (I) the product derived by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect
immediately prior to such Dilutive Issuance and the number of shares of Common
Stock Deemed Outstanding immediately prior to such Dilutive Issuance plus (II)
the consideration, if any, received by the Company upon such Dilutive Issuance,
by (2) the product derived by multiplying (I) the Conversion Price in effect
immediately prior to such Dilutive Issuance by (II) the number of shares of
Common Stock Deemed Outstanding immediately after such Dilutive Issuance. For
purposes of determining the adjusted Conversion Price under this Section 6(a),
the following shall be applicable:
(i) Issuance of Options. If the Company in any manner grants
or sells any Options and the lowest price per share for which one share of
Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such Option or upon
conversion, exchange or exercise of any Convertible Securities issuable upon
exercise of such Option is less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately
prior to such Dilutive Issuance, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed
to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of
the granting or sale of such Option for such price per share. For purposes of
this Section 6(a)(i), the "lowest price per share for which one share of Common
Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion,
exchange or exercise of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of
such Option" shall be equal to the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration
(if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to any one share of
Common Stock upon granting or sale of the Option, upon exercise of the Option
and upon conversion, exchange or exercise of any Convertible Security issuable
upon exercise of such Option. No further adjustment of the Conversion Price
shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock or of such
Convertible Securities upon the exercise of such Options or upon the actual
issuance of such Common Stock upon conversion, exchange or exercise of such
Convertible Securities.
(ii) Issuance of Convertible Securities. If the Company in any
manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities and the lowest price per share
for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion, exchange
or exercise thereof is less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately
prior to such Dilutive Issuance, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed
to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of
the issuance of sale of such Convertible Securities for such price per share.
For the purposes of this Section 6(a)(ii), the "lowest price per share for which
one share of Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion, exchange or
exercise" shall be equal to the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if
any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to any one share of
Common Stock upon the issuance or sale of the Convertible Security and upon the
conversion, exchange or exercise of such Convertible Security. No further
13
adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of
such Common Stock upon conversion, exchange or exercise of such Convertible
Securities, and if any such issue or sale of such Convertible Securities is made
upon exercise of any Options for which adjustment of the Conversion Price had
been or are to be made pursuant to other provisions of this Section 6(a), no
further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made by reason of such issue
or sale.
(iii) Change in Option Price or Rate of Conversion. If the
purchase or exercise price provided for in any Options, the additional
consideration, if any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exchange or exercise
of any Convertible Securities, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities
are convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock changes at
any time, the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such change shall be
adjusted to the Conversion Price which would have been in effect at such time
had such Options or Convertible Securities provided for such changed purchase
price, additional consideration or changed conversion rate, as the case may be,
at the time initially granted, issued or sold. For purposes of this Section
6(a)(iii), if the terms of any Option or Convertible Security that was
outstanding as of the date of issuance of the Debentures are changed in the
manner described in the immediately preceding sentence, then such Option or
Convertible Security and the Common Stock deemed issuable upon exercise,
conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the
date of such change. No adjustment shall be made if such adjustment would result
in an increase of the Conversion Price then in effect.
(iv) Calculation of Consideration Received. In case any Option
is issued in connection with the issue or sale of other securities of the
Company, together comprising one integrated transaction in which no specific
consideration is allocated to such Options by the parties thereto, then solely
for purposes of this Section 6, the Options will be deemed to have been issued
for a consideration of $0.01. If any Common Stock, Options or Convertible
Securities are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash,
the consideration received therefor will be deemed to be the gross amount
received by the Company therefor. If any Common Stock, Options or Convertible
Securities are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of
the consideration other than cash received by the Company will be the fair value
of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of marketable
securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company
will be the arithmetic average of the Closing Sale Prices of such securities
during the ten (10) consecutive trading days ending on the date of receipt of
such securities. The fair value of any consideration other than cash or
securities will be determined jointly by the Company and the holders of at least
60% of the Outstanding Principal Amount of the Debentures issued on the Original
Issuance Date then outstanding. If such parties are unable to reach agreement
within ten (10) days after the occurrence of an event requiring valuation (the
"Valuation Event"), the fair value of such consideration will be determined
within five Business Days after the tenth (10th) day following the Valuation
Event by an independent, reputable appraiser selected by the Company and the
holders of at least 60% of the Outstanding Principal Amount of the Debentures
issued on the Original Issuance Date then outstanding. The determination of such
appraiser shall be deemed binding upon all parties absent manifest error and the
fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Company.
14
(v) Record Date. If the Company takes a record of the holders
of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or
other distribution payable in Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities or
(B) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock, Options or Convertible
Securities, then such record date will be deemed to be the date of the issue or
sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the
declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the
date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may
be.
(b) Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination
of Common Stock. If the Company at any time subdivides (by any stock split,
stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common
Stock into a greater number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect
immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. If the
Company at any time combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise)
its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares and the
Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be
proportionately increased.
(c) Holder's Right of Alternative Conversion Price Following
Issuance of Convertible Securities. If the Company issues or sells any Options
or Convertible Securities after the Closing Date that are convertible into or
exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock at a price which varies or may vary
with the market price of the Common Stock, including by way of one or more
reset(s) to a fixed price (each of the formulations for such variable price
being herein referred to as, the "Variable Price"), the Company shall provide
written notice thereof via facsimile and overnight courier to the Holder (the
"Variable Notice") on the date of issuance of such Convertible Securities or
Options. From and after the date the Company issues any such Convertible
Securities or Options with a Variable Price, but only for so long as such
Convertible Securities or Options are outstanding, the Holder shall have the
right, but not the obligation, in its sole discretion to substitute the Variable
Price for the Conversion Price upon conversion of any Debentures held by it by
designating in the Conversion Notice delivered upon conversion of such
Debentures that solely for purposes of such conversion the Holder is relying on
the Variable Price rather than the Conversion Price then in effect. The Holder's
election to rely on a Variable Price for a particular conversion of Debentures
shall not obligate the Holder to rely on a Variable Price for any future
conversions of Debentures.
(d) Other Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by
the provisions of this Section 6 in a private transaction (the primary purpose
of which is to raise equity capital) but not expressly provided for by such
provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation
rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features other than
pursuant to an Excluded Issuance), then the Company's Board of Directors will
make an appropriate adjustment in the Conversion Price so as to protect the
rights of the holders of the Debentures; provided that no such adjustment will
increase the Conversion Price as otherwise determined pursuant to this
Section 6.
(e) Notices.
(i) Promptly following any adjustment of the Conversion Price
pursuant to this Section 6, the Company will give written notice thereof to the
15
Holder, setting forth in reasonable detail, and certifying, the calculation of
such adjustment. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of such
adjustment, then such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the
procedures set forth in Section 4(d)(iii).
(ii) The Company will give written notice to the Holder at
least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which the Company closes its
books or takes a record (A) with respect to any dividend or distribution upon
the Common Stock, (B) with respect to any pro rata subscription offer to holders
of Common Stock or (C) for determining rights to vote with respect to any
Organic Change (as defined in Section 7(a)), dissolution or liquidation,
provided that the Company need not in any case provide such notice prior to the
time such information is made known to the public.
(iii) The Company will also give written notice to the Holder
at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which any Organic Change,
dissolution or liquidation will take place, provided that the Company need not
in any case provide such notice prior to the time such information is made known
to the public.
7. Other Rights.
(a) Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or
Sale. Any recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation,
merger, sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another
Person or other transaction which is effected in such a way that holders of
Common Stock are entitled to receive (either directly or upon subsequent
liquidation) stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for
Common Stock is referred to herein as "Organic Change." Prior to the
consummation of any (i) sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets
to an acquiring Person or (ii) other Organic Change following which the Company
is not a surviving entity, the Company will secure from the Person purchasing
such assets or the successor, or, if applicable, the parent of the successor,
resulting from such Organic Change (in each case, the "Acquiring Entity") a
written agreement to deliver to each holder of Outstanding Principal Amount of
the Debentures in exchange for such securities, a security of the Acquiring
Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and
substance to the Debentures, and reasonably satisfactory to the holders of at
least 60% of the Outstanding Principal Amount of the Debentures issued on the
Original Issuance Date then outstanding; provided that the new security of the
Acquiring Entity shall not be required to be of rank equal to the Debenture if
the issuance of a security of such rank is not permitted by, or is inconsistent
with, any agreement or instrument to which the Acquiring Entity is a party or
any security of the Acquiring Entity that is outstanding, upon the consummation
of the Organic Change. Prior to the consummation of any other Organic Change,
the Company shall make appropriate provision to insure that each of the holders
of the Debentures will thereafter have the right to acquire and receive in lieu
of or in addition to (as the case may be) the shares of Common Stock immediately
theretofore acquirable and receivable upon the conversion of such holder's
Debentures such shares of stock, securities or assets that would have been
issued or payable in such Organic Change with respect to or in exchange for the
number of shares of Common Stock which would have been acquirable and receivable
upon the conversion of such holder's Debentures as of the date of such Organic
Change (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the
convertibility of the Debentures).
16
(b) Optional Redemption at Holder's Election Upon Change of
Control. In addition to the rights of the holders of Debentures under this
Debenture, the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights
Agreement, upon a Change of Control (as defined below) of the Company each
holder of Debentures shall have the right, at such holder's option, to require
the Company to redeem all or a portion of such holder's Debentures at a price
equal to 100% of the Outstanding Principal Amount of such Debentures plus the
product of (1) 1.75 and (2) the dollar amount of all Interest Payments scheduled
to be paid following the consummation of the Change of Control and on or prior
to the Maturity Date on the total Outstanding Principal Amount of the Debentures
on the date of consummation of the Change of Control ("Change of Control
Redemption Price"). No sooner than 20 Business Days nor later than 10 Business
Days prior to the consummation of a Change of Control, but not prior to the
public announcement of such Change of Control, the Company shall deliver written
notice thereof via facsimile and overnight courier (a "Notice of Change of
Control") to each holder of Debentures. At any time during the period beginning
after receipt of a Notice of Change of Control (or, in the event a Notice of
Change of Control is not delivered at least 10 Business Days prior to a Change
of Control, at any time on or after the date which is 10 Business Days prior to
a Change of Control) and ending on the date one (1) Business Day prior to such
Change of Control, any holder of the Debentures then outstanding may require the
Company to redeem all or a portion of the holder's Debentures then outstanding
by delivering written notice thereof via facsimile and overnight courier (a
"Notice of Redemption Upon Change of Control") to the Company, which Notice of
Redemption Upon Change of Control shall indicate (i) the principal amount of the
Debentures that such holder is submitting for redemption, and (ii) the
applicable Change of Control Redemption Price, as calculated pursuant to this
Section 7(b). Upon the Company's receipt of a Notice(s) of Redemption Upon
Change of Control from any holder of Debentures, the Company shall promptly, but
in no event later than two (2) Business Days following such receipt, notify each
holder of Debentures by facsimile of the Company's receipt of such Notice(s) of
Redemption Upon Change of Control. The Company shall deliver to the holder of
each Debenture who has delivered a Notice of Redemption upon Change of Control,
the applicable Change of Control Redemption Price simultaneously with the
consummation of the Change of Control provided that a holder's Debentures shall
have been so delivered to the Company. For purposes of this Section 7(b),
"Change of Control" means (i) the consolidation, merger or other business
combination of the Company with or into another Person (other than (A) a
consolidation, merger or other business combination in which holders of the
Company's voting power immediately prior to the transaction continue after the
transaction to hold, directly or indirectly, the voting power of the surviving
entity or entities necessary to elect a majority of the members of the board of
directors (or their equivalent if other than a corporation) of such entity or
entities, or (B) pursuant to a migratory merger effected solely for the purpose
of changing the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company), (ii) the sale or
transfer of all or substantially all of the Company's assets, or (iii) a tender
or exchange offer made to and accepted by the holders of more than 50% of the
aggregate voting power of the outstanding Common Stock.
(c) Optional Redemption At the Company's Election Upon Cash
Transaction. At any time or times on or after the date the Company publicly
discloses a pending, proposed or intended Cash Transaction, the Company shall
have the right, in its sole discretion, to require that all, but not less than
all, of the Outstanding Principal Amount of this Debenture be redeemed ("Cash
17
Transaction Redemption Election") at a price equal to 100% of the Outstanding
Principal Amount of this Debenture plus the product of (1) 1.75 and (2) the
dollar amount of all Interest Payments scheduled to be paid following the
consummation of the Cash Transaction and on or prior to the Maturity Date on the
total Outstanding Principal Amount of the Debentures redeemed on the date of
consummation of the Cash Transaction (the "Cash Transaction Redemption Price").
The Company shall exercise its right to make a Cash Transaction Redemption
Election by providing each holder of Debentures written notice ("Notice of Cash
Transaction Redemption") by facsimile or overnight courier, after the public
disclosure of a proposed, pending or intended Cash Transaction and at least ten
(10) Business Days prior to the date of consummation of the Cash Transaction
("Cash Transaction Election Redemption Date"), which Cash Transaction Election
Redemption Date shall be the date of the consummation of the Cash Transaction.
The Notice of Cash Transaction Redemption shall indicate the anticipated Cash
Transaction Election Redemption Date. If the Company has exercised its right of
Cash Transaction Redemption Election then the Outstanding Principal Amount of
the Debenture at the time of the consummation of the Cash Transaction shall be
redeemed on the Cash Transaction Election Redemption Date by payment by or on
behalf of the Company to each holder of Debentures of the applicable Cash
Transaction Redemption Price concurrent with the closing of the Cash
Transaction. All holders of Debentures shall thereupon, if the Cash Transaction
Redemption Price has been paid, except as specifically set forth herein, in the
Securities Purchase Agreement or in the Registration Rights Agreement, cease to
have any rights with respect to the Debentures and within two (2) Business Day
after the Cash Transaction Election Redemption Date, or such earlier date as the
Company and holders of no less then 60% of the Outstanding Principal Amount of
the Debentures issued on the Original Issuance Date mutually agree, shall
surrender all Debentures to the Company.
(d) Right to Convert on an Organic Change or Change of Control or
Agreement of the Parties. In addition to the foregoing, following the
announcement of any Change of Control or other Organic Change following which
the Company is not the surviving entity or otherwise upon the mutual agreement
of the Company and holders of at least 60% of the Outstanding Principal Amount
of all Debentures issued on the Original Issuance Date, the Holder shall
continue pursuant to Section 4(a) hereof to have the right to convert the
Outstanding Principal Amount of this Debenture at the then prevailing Conversion
Rate until the Debenture is redeemed or otherwise converted pursuant to this
Section 7.
8. Reservation of Stock Issuable Upon Conversion. The Company shall, so
long as any of the Debentures are outstanding, take all action necessary to
reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock,
solely for the purpose of effecting the conversions of the Debentures, such
number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to
effect the conversion of all of the Debentures then outstanding; provided that
the number of shares of Common Stock so reserved shall at no time be less than
120% of the number of shares of Common Stock needed to provide for the issuance
of the shares of Common Stock upon conversion of all of the Debentures (without
regard to any limitations on conversion).
9. [Intentionally Omitted].
10. No Impairment. The Company shall not intentionally take any action
which would impair the rights and privileges of the Debentures set forth herein
or the Holders thereof.
18
11. Limitation on Beneficial Ownership. The Company shall not effect
and shall have no obligation to effect any conversion of Debentures, and no
holder of Debentures shall have the right to convert any Debentures, to the
extent that after giving effect to such conversion, the beneficial owner of such
shares (together with such Person's affiliates) would have acquired, through
conversion of Debentures or otherwise, beneficial ownership of a number of
shares of Common Stock that exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion. For
purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned by a Person and its affiliates shall include the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Debentures with respect
to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the
number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) conversion of
the remaining, nonconverted Debentures beneficially owned by such Person or any
of its affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or
unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without
limitation, any warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise
analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by such Person
or any of its affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for
purposes of this Section 11, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in
accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended. For purposes of this Section 11, in determining the number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock, a holder may rely on the number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (1) the Company's most recent
Form 10-Q, Form 10-K or other public filing with the SEC, as the case may be,
(2) a more recent public announcement by the Company, or (3) any other notice by
the Company or its transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding. Upon the written request of the Holder, the Company shall
promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days following the receipt
of such notice, confirm in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common
Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common
Stock shall be determined after giving effect to conversions of Debentures by
the Holder and its affiliates since the date as of which such number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported.
12. Obligations Absolute. No provision of this Debenture shall alter or
impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to
pay the principal of, and interest on, this Debenture at the time, place and
rate, and in the manner, herein prescribed.
13. Waivers of Demand, Etc. The Company hereby expressly waives (to the
extent permitted by applicable law) demand and presentment for payment, notice
of nonpayment, protest, notice of protest, notice of dishonor, notice of
acceleration or intent to accelerate, bringing of suit and diligence in taking
any action to collect amounts called for hereunder and will be directly and
primarily liable for the payment of all sums owing and to be owing hereon,
regardless of and without any notice, diligence, act or omission as or with
respect to the collection of any amount called for hereunder.
14. Replacement Debentures. In the event that any Holder notifies the
Company that its Debenture(s) have been lost, stolen or destroyed, replacement
Debenture(s) identical in all respects to the original Debenture(s) (except for
registration number and Outstanding Principal Amount, if different than that
shown on the original Debenture(s)) shall be issued by the Company to the
Holder, provided that the Holder executes and delivers to the Company an
agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Company to indemnify the Company from
any loss incurred by it in connection with such Debenture(s).
19
14A. Payment of Expenses. The Company agrees to pay all reasonable
expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, which may be incurred by the
Holder in successfully enforcing the provisions of this Debenture and/or
successfully collecting any amount due under this Debenture, the Securities
Purchase Agreement, the Warrants or the Registration Rights Agreement.
15. Defaults. The following shall constitute "Events of Default":
(a) Any Event of Default under any other Debenture; or
(b) The suspension from trading or failure of the Common Stock to
be listed on NASDAQ or the NYSE for more than an aggregate of ten (10) trading
days in any 365-day period; or
(c) Any money judgment (including any arbitration award, but only
if reduced to a judgment), writ or warrant of attachment, or similar process in
excess of Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) in the aggregate,
net of any applicable insurance coverage, shall be entered or filed against the
Company, its subsidiaries or any of their properties or other assets and which
shall remain unpaid, unvacated, unbonded and unstayed for a period of
seventy-five (75) days; or
(d) The Company shall default in the payment when due of (i)
interest on this Debenture, and such default shall continue for thirty (30)
calendar days after the due date thereof, or (ii) the Outstanding Principal
Amount of this Debenture; or
(e) Any of the representations or warranties made by the Company
herein, in the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Warrants or the Registration
Rights Agreement shall be untrue in any material respect at the time made and
such condition (to the extent capable of being cured) shall continue uncured for
a period of ten (10) Business Days after notice from the Holder of such
condition; and such breach of representations and warranties, singly or in the
aggregate, would have a Material Adverse Effect or materially impair the ability
of the Company to perform or satisfy its obligations to the Holder pursuant to
the Transaction Documents; or
(f) The Company shall fail to perform or observe in any material
respect any material covenant or agreement in the Securities Purchase Agreement,
the Warrants, the Registration Rights Agreement or this Debenture (as any of the
foregoing may be amended), including, without limitation, the failure to honor
any Conversion Notice and deliver shares pursuant thereto, and such failure
shall continue uncured for a period of ten (10) Business Days after notice from
the Holder of such failure; or
(g) The Company shall (i) become insolvent; (ii) admit in writing
its inability to pay its debts generally as they mature; (iii) make an
assignment for the benefit of creditors or commence proceedings for its
dissolution; or (iv) apply for or consent to the appointment of a trustee,
liquidator or receiver for it or for a substantial part of its property or
business; or
20
(h) 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
(i) 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
(j) The Company shall fail to pay any debt for borrowed money or
other similar obligation or liability ("Indebtedness") (excluding Indebtedness
evidenced by the Debentures) of the Company, or any interest or premium thereon,
when due (whether by scheduled maturity, required prepayment, acceleration,
demand or otherwise), in an outstanding principal amount equal to or in excess
of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), singly or in the aggregate and such failure
shall continue after the applicable grace period, if any, specified in the
agreement or instrument relating to such Indebtedness, or any such Indebtedness
of the Company shall be declared to be due and payable, or required to be
prepaid (other than by a regularly scheduled required prepayment), prior to the
stated maturity thereof;
(k) [Intentionally Omitted];
(l) [Intentionally Omitted];
(m) Bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or liquidation
proceedings or other similar proceedings, or relief under any bankruptcy law or
any similar law for the relief of debt 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 to
any material allegations of, or default in answering a petition filed in any
such proceeding.
Unless an Event of Default shall have been waived in writing by the Holder
(which waiver shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent default),
upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, and for so long as such Event of
Default shall be continuing, at the option of and (except in the case of clause
(h) above) on notice by the Holder to the Company in writing and in the Holder's
sole discretion, the Holder may consider this Debenture immediately due and
payable, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of
which are hereby expressly waived, anything herein or in any other instruments
contained to the contrary notwithstanding to the extent permitted by applicable
law, and the Holder may immediately, and without expiration of any further
period of grace, enforce any and all of the Holder's rights and remedies
provided herein or any other rights or remedies afforded by law. In such event
this Debenture shall be redeemed at a redemption price equal to 100% of the
Outstanding Principal Amount of the Debenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest
on this Debenture. In addition to the foregoing, upon an Event of Default, the
rate of interest on this Debenture, shall, to the maximum extent of the law, be
permanently increased by two percent (2%) per annum (i.e., from 6% to 8% per
annum) commencing on the first day of the thirty (30) day period (or part
thereof) following the Event of Default; and, solely in the case of an Event of
Default triggered by a Conversion Failure, an additional two percent (2%) per
annum commencing on the first day of each of the second and third such thirty
(30) day periods (or part thereof); and an additional one percent (1%) on the
21

of 20% or the highest rate permitted by applicable law. The Company shall within
one (1) Business Day notify each Holder of Debentures upon becoming aware of the
occurrence of any Event of Default (whether or not waived by any other Holder of
Debentures) or of any action taken by any Holder of Debentures with respect to
the occurrence of any Event of Default.
16. Savings Clause. In case any provision of this Debenture is held by
a court of competent jurisdiction to be excessive in scope or otherwise invalid
or unenforceable, such provision shall be adjusted rather than voided, if
possible, so that it is enforceable to the maximum extent possible, and the
validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Debenture will
not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
17. Entire Agreement. This Debenture and the agreements referred to in
this Debenture constitute the full and entire understanding and agreement
between the Company and the Holder with respect to the subject hereof. Neither
this Debenture nor any term hereof may be amended, waived, discharged or
terminated other than by a written instrument signed by the Company and the
Holder.
18. Assignment, Etc. The Holder may, subject to compliance with the
Securities Purchase Agreement and to applicable federal and state securities
laws, transfer or assign this Debenture or any portion thereof and may pledge,
encumber or transfer its rights or interest in and to this Debenture or any part
hereof, provided, that such transfer or assignment of this Debenture does not
result in more than ten (10) holders of the total Outstanding Principal Amount
of all Debentures and any such part or portion of this Debenture constitutes at
least 10% of the Outstanding Principal Amount or such lesser amount if such
transfer involves the entire Outstanding Principal Amount then held by such
transferor. Any such transfer or assignment shall only be effective upon the
Company's receipt of written notice thereof. Each such assignee, transferee and
pledgee shall have all of the rights of the Holder under this Debenture. The
Company agrees that, subject to compliance with the Securities Purchase
Agreement, after receipt by the Company of written notice of assignment from the
Holder and the Holder's assignee, all principal, interest and other amounts
which are then, and thereafter become, due under this Debenture shall be paid to
such assignee, transferee or pledgee at the place of payment designated in such
notice. This Debenture shall be binding upon the Company and its successors and
shall inure to the benefit of the Holder and its successors and registered
assigns.
19. No Waiver. No failure on the part of the Holder to exercise, and no
delay in exercising, any right, remedy or power hereunder shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Holder of any
right, remedy or power hereunder preclude any other or future exercise of any
other right, remedy or power. Each and every right, remedy or power hereby
granted to the Holder or allowed it by law or other agreement shall be
cumulative and not exclusive of any other, and may be exercised by the Holder
from time to time.

waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the
terms of this Debenture must be in writing and will be deemed to have been

PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW OR CHOICE OF LAW (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF
THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW). The parties hereto hereby agree that all
actions or proceedings arising directly or indirectly from or in connection with

located in New York County, New York. The parties hereto consent to the

24. [Intentionally Omitted].
25. [Intentionally Omitted].
26. Limitation on Number of Conversion Shares. The Company (1) shall
not be obligated to issue Conversion Shares upon conversion of this Debenture
and (2) shall not be permitted to issue Interest Shares (but instead shall make
Cash Interest Payments) to the extent that the issuance of such shares of Common
Stock would cause the Company to exceed that number of shares of Common Stock
which the Company may issue under this Debenture (the "Exchange Cap") without
breaching the Company's obligations under the rules or regulations of the
Principal Market, except that such limitation shall not apply in the event that
the Company obtains the approval of its stockholders as required by the
Principal Market (or any successor rule or regulation) for issuances of Common
Stock in excess of such amount. Until such approval is obtained, the holder of
this Debenture shall not be issued, upon conversion of this Debenture,
Conversion Shares in an amount greater than the difference between (i) the
product of (x) the Exchange Cap amount multiplied by (y) a fraction, the
numerator of which is the aggregate principal amount of Debentures issued to
such Holder pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement and the denominator of
which is the aggregate principal amount of all the Debentures issued to all
Debenture holders pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement and (ii) the sum
of (A) the aggregate number of Interest Shares issued to the holder of this
Debenture (and all predecessor holders) as of the date of such conversion plus
(B) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued to the holder of this
Debenture (and all predecessor holders) upon the exercise of any Warrants held
by such holder (and all predecessor holders) as of the date of such conversion
(such difference, the "Cap Allocation Amount"). If at any time when the Holder
shall deliver a Conversion Notice pursuant to Section 4 hereof the Company shall
be prohibited pursuant to the provisions of this Section 26 from issuing all or
any portion of the Conversion Shares issuable pursuant to such Conversion
Notice, then the Company shall pay in immediately available funds to the holder
of this Debenture within two (2) Business Days of the date of delivery of such
Conversion Notice, an amount in cash equal to the product of (X) the number of
shares of Common Stock which could not be issued by virtue of the limitations
contained in this Section 26 multiplied by (Y) the average of the Closing Sale
Prices of the Common Stock on each of the five (5) trading days ending on the
third trading day immediately preceding the date the date of delivery of such
Conversion Notice. The Outstanding Principal Amount of this Debenture shall be
reduced by an amount equal to the Outstanding Principal Amount of this Debenture
designated in the Conversion Notice that could not be converted by virtue of the
limitations set forth in this Section 26 and for which the Company has made
payment pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.
27. Taxes.
(a) The Company shall pay any and all documentary, stamp, transfer
(but only in respect of the registered holder thereof) and other similar taxes
that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Common Stock
upon the conversion of Debentures; provided, however, that the Company shall not
be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer
involved in the issue or delivery of Common Stock or other securities or
property in a name other than that of the registered holder of this Debenture to
be converted and such holder shall pay such amount, if any, to cover any
applicable transfer or similar tax.
25
(b) The Company shall be permitted to withhold from any amounts
payable to a Debenture holder or a holder of Common Stock any taxes required by
law to be withheld from such amount. If the Company shall be required to
withhold or deduct any tax, levy or other governmental charge, excluding (A) net
income taxes, franchise taxes, or taxes imposed on or measured by net income (or
overall gross receipts, to the extent such tax is imposed in lieu of a tax on
net income by a jurisdiction that does not impose any tax based on or measured
by net income) on any Debenture holder by the jurisdiction in which such
Debenture holder is organized or any other jurisdiction in which such Debenture
holder would be subject to tax without regard to the transactions contemplated
hereby and (B) U.S. Federal withholding taxes (unless such U.S. Federal
withholding taxes would not be imposed but for a change in or amendment to the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the Treasury Regulations
or any other administrative authority thereunder or any tax treaty or the
release or promulgation of any judicial decision relating thereto, in each case,
on or after the date such Debenture holder acquires a Debenture (each, a "Change
in Law")) (all such non-excluded taxes, levies or other governmental charges,
"Taxes") from any payment of interest, or any accrual of original issue
discount, for U.S. Federal income tax purposes made hereunder or under any
Debenture to or for the benefit of any Debenture holder, then (A) the amount
payable shall be increased by the amount necessary so that after making all
required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and withholdings with
respect to additional amounts payable under this Section 27(b)) such Debenture
holder shall receive an amount equal to the amount it would have received if no
such deduction or withholding of Taxes had been required, (B) the Company shall
make such deduction or withholding and (C) the Company shall pay the full amount
deducted to the appropriate governmental authority in accordance with applicable
law. If any Debenture holder is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other
than the United States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia (each a
"Non-U.S. Debenture Holder"), it shall deliver to the Company two copies of
either (A) U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (claiming complete
exemption from U.S. Federal withholding tax under an income tax treaty), or any
successor form; (B) U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (claiming complete
exemption from U.S. Federal withholding tax because the income is effectively
connected with a U.S. trade or business), or any successor form; (C) in the case
of a Non-U.S. Debenture Holder claiming exemption from U.S. Federal withholding
tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, with respect to payments of
"portfolio interest," U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (certifying as
to beneficial ownership), or any successor form, and a certificate in form and
substance reasonably acceptable to the Company representing that such Non-U.S.
Debenture Holder is not a "bank" for purposes of Section 881(c) of the Code, is
not a 10-percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the
Code) of the Company and is not a "controlled foreign corporation" related to
the Company (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code); or (D) other
applicable form, certificate or document prescribed by the U.S. Internal Revenue
Service certifying as to such Non-U.S. Debenture Holder's entitlement to a
complete exemption from U.S. Federal withholding tax, as applicable, in all
cases such forms and other documents being properly completed and duly executed
by such Non-U.S. Debenture Holder claiming complete exemption from U.S. Federal
withholding tax on payments of interest (or of original issue discount) for U.S.
Federal income tax purposes by the Company under the Debentures. Each Debenture
holder and each holder of common stock that is organized under the laws of a
26
jurisdiction other than the United States, any State thereof or the District of
Columbia (each a "Non-U.S. Equity Holder") also shall deliver to the Company, to
the extent legally able to do so, with respect to payments of dividends for U.S.
Federal income tax purposes by the Company, if applicable, two copies of either
(A) U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (claiming a reduction of U.S.
Federal withholding tax under an applicable income tax treaty, if any), or any
successor form, (B) U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (claiming complete
exemption from U.S. Federal withholding tax because the income is effectively
connected with a U.S. trade or business), or any successor form, or (C) other
applicable form, certificate or document prescribed by the U.S. Internal Revenue
Service certifying as to such Non-U.S. Equity Holder's entitlement to an
exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding tax on payments of
dividends for U.S. Federal income tax purposes by the Company, as applicable, in
all cases such forms and other documents being properly completed and duly
executed by such Non-U.S. Equity Holder. In addition, each Debenture holder and
each holder of Common Stock that is not otherwise exempt from "back-up
withholding" shall deliver to the Company two properly completed and duly
executed copies of either (A) U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or any
successor form, (B) U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, or any successor
form, (C) U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or any successor form, or (D)
other applicable form, certificate or document prescribed by the U.S. Internal
Revenue Service, as applicable, in each case indicating that such Debenture
holder or holder of Common Stock is not subject to "back-up withholding" for
U.S. Federal income tax purposes. The forms and other documents required to be
delivered pursuant to this Section 27(b) shall be delivered (A) on or prior to
the Initial Closing Date and (B) from time to time thereafter if within ten (10)
Business Days after receipt of a written request therefor by the Company. In
addition, each Debenture holder and each holder of Common Stock shall promptly
notify the Company at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position
to provide any previously delivered (or requested) form, document or certificate
to the Company, including as a result in whole or in part from a Change in Law;
provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not affect any
Debenture holder's right to any additional amounts hereunder.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 27(b)
above, the Company shall not be required to pay any additional amount to any
Debenture holder pursuant to the preceding paragraph to the extent the Tax in
respect of which such additional amount would otherwise be payable would not
have been imposed but for the failure of such Debenture holder to comply with
its obligations under such paragraph; provided, however, that the failure to
provide the applicable form, document or certificate pursuant to the preceding
paragraph as provided in the notice required by the preceding paragraph
resulting in whole or in part from a Change in Law shall not affect such
Debenture holder's right to any additional amounts hereunder.
27
