Act and applicable state securities laws or (ii) under the required registration
as described herein.
8. RESTRICTIVE LEGEND.
Subscriber agrees that the Company may place a restrictive
legend on the documents representing the Debentures and on the Shares containing
substantially the following language:
THE DEBENTURES [SHARES] REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN
ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION, AND HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. SUCH
DEBENTURES [SHARES] MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR
HYPOTHECATED, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION
STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT THERETO UNDER SUCH ACT UNLESS SOLD
PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OF SUCH ACT OR UNLESS THE SALE IS OTHERWISE EXEMPT
FROM REGISTRATION. THE COMPANY MAY REQUEST A WRITTEN OPINION OF COUNSEL
SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, TO THE EFFECT THAT REIGSTRATION IS NOT
REQUIRED IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH SALE, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION, OR
OTHER TRANSFER. THIS CERTIFICATE MUST BE SURRENDERED COMPANY OR ITS
TRANSFER AGENT AS A CONDITION PRECEDENT TO THE SALE, PLEDGE
HYPOTHECATION OR ANY OTHER TRANSFER OF ANY INTEREST IN ANY OF THE
DEBENTURES [SHARES] REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE.
9. STOP TRANSFER ORDER.
The Subscriber agrees that the Company may place a stop
transfer order with its registrar and stock transfer agent (if any) covering all
certificates representing the Debentures and the Shares.
10. KNOWLEDGE OF RESTRICTIONS UPON TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES.
The Subscriber understands that the Securities are not freely
transferable and may in fact be prohibited from sale for an extended period of
time and that, as a consequence thereof, the undersigned must bear the economic
risk of investment in the Securities for an indefinite period of time and may
have extremely limited opportunities to dispose of the Securities.
11. REGISTRATION AND OTHER RIGHTS WITH REGARD TO THE SHARES.
(a) Each Debenture holder who wishes to convert its Debenture
into Shares shall deliver its original Debenture to the Company at its principal
office on a business day having first or simultaneously given written notice via
facsimile to the Company at such principal office on a business day, in the form
attached as Exhibit A to the Debenture, that such holder elects to convert the
Debenture, all in accordance with the terms of the Debenture.
(b) The Debenture shall be convertible into Shares, at any
time commencing on the earlier of (i) the effective date of the registration
statement covering the Shares; or (ii) one hundred twenty (120) days after the
filing of the registration statement covering the Shares.
(c) The principal amount of the Debentures and any accrued but
unpaid interest thereon is convertible into Shares. The number of Shares to be
received by the Debenture holder shall be determined as set forth in the Term
Sheet and the Debenture issued to the Subscriber.
(d) The Company shall file a registration statement
(the "Registration Statement") covering the resale of all shares of Common Stock
outstanding at the time of such filing, including the Shares (collectively the
"Registrable Securities") no later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date.
The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to have the Registration
Statement declared effective within
ninety (90) days after the filing of the registration statement. If the
Registration Statement is not filed within 60 days and/or declared effective
within 90 days from the date of filing due to the failure of the Company to
exercise reasonable diligence, then the Company shall pay each Debenture holder
2% of the face amount of the Debenture in cash as liquidated damages for each
calendar month delayed (if less than one full calendar month then the liquidated
damage shall be prorated over the number of days delayed). The liquidated damage
provision applies both to the filing of the Registration Statement and the
effective date thereof so that a 2% penalty may be due for late filing and
another 2% penalty due for late effectiveness.
If the Registration Statement also includes other securities of the
Company which are being sold in an underwritten offering, then the Subscriber
shall, unless otherwise agreed by the Company, offer and sell the Shares
included in such Registration Statement using the same underwriter or
underwriters and, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, on the same terms
and conditions as other securities included in such underwritten offering.
(e) In connection with the filing of the Registration
Statement pursuant to this Section 11, the Company shall:
(i) notify the Subscriber as to the filing and status thereof
prior to the effective date of said Registration
Statement;
(ii) notify such Subscriber promptly after it shall have
received notice of the time when the Registration
Statement becomes effective or any supplement to any
prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement
has been filed;
(iii) prepare and file without expense to such Subscriber any
necessary amendment or supplement to such Registration
Statement or prospectus as may be necessary to comply with
the Securities Act or advisable in connection with the
proposed distribution of the Shares by such Subscriber;
(iv) take all reasonable steps to qualify the Shares for sale
under the securities or blue sky laws of the state of such
Subscriber's residence as provided in this Agreement and
to register or obtain the approval of any federal or state
authority which may reasonably be
required in connection with the proposed distribution,
except, in each case, in jurisdictions in which the
Company must either qualify to do business or file a
general consent to service of process as a condition of
the qualification of such securities;
(v) notify the Subscriber of any stop order suspending the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement and use its
reasonable best efforts to remove such stop order;
(vi) undertake to keep such registration statement and
prospectus effective for a period of twelve months after
its effective date; and
(vii) furnish to such Subscriber as soon as available, a copy of
each preliminary or final prospectus prepared pursuant to
the foregoing provisions of this section, all in such
quantities as such Subscriber may from time to time
reasonably request.
(f) The Company agrees to pay all costs incurred in connection
with the Registration Statement to be filed pursuant to Section 11 including,
without limitation to the fees and expenses of counsel for the Company, the fees
and expenses of its accountants, and all other costs and expenses incident to
the preparation, printing and filing under the Securities Act of such
Registration Statement, each prospectus and all amendments and supplements
thereto, the costs incurred in connection with the qualification of the Shares
in the Subscriber's state of residence and the costs of supplying a reasonable
number of copies of each preliminary prospectus, final prospectus and any
supplements or amendments thereto to such Subscriber.
(g) The Company part and each Subscriber shall enter into an
appropriate cross-indemnity agreement whereby the Company shall indemnify and
hold harmless the Subscriber against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities
(or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based upon any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in such
Registration Statement, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading unless such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished or required to be
furnished to the Company by any such Subscriber, and each such Subscriber shall
indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and officers who
have signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the
Company, within the meaning of the Securities Act, and the Company's agents and
representatives against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions
in respect thereof) arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of any material fact, contained in such Registration statement,
or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to
be stated therein or necessary to make statements therein not misleading, if the
statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished or required to be furnished by such Subscriber expressly
for use in such Registration Statement.
(h) For a period of one (1) year after the effective date of
the registration statement filed pursuant to this Section 11, the Company at its
expense will file such post-effective amendments as may be necessary to make
available for use a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act.
The Company will cause copies of such prospectus to be delivered to any person
selling the shares of Common Stock as may be required by the Securities Act and
the rules and regulations of the SEC.
12. INDEMNIFICATION.
The Subscriber understands that the Debentures are being
offered without registration under the Securities Act and in reliance upon the
exemptions for transactions by an issuer not involving a public offering, and
upon the provisions of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act; that
the availability of such exemption is, in part, dependent upon the truthfulness
and accuracy of the representation made by the Subscriber herein; that the
Company will rely on such representations in accepting any subscription for
Debentures of the Company and that the Company may take such steps as it
considers reasonable to verify the accuracy and truthfulness of such
representations in advance of accepting or rejecting the Subscriber's
subscription. The Subscriber agrees to indemnify and hold the Company harmless
against any damage, loss, expense or cost, including reasonable attorneys' fees,
sustained or incurred as a result of any misstatement or omission on the part of
the Subscriber.

securities offered hereby have not been registered under the Florida Securities
and Investor Protection Act by reason of an exemption pursuant to Section
517.061(11) thereof. Unless the securities are registered, they may not be
re-offered for sale or resold in the State of Florida except as a security, or
in a transaction exempt under said Act.
The Subscriber has been advised that sales made pursuant to
Section 517.061(11) of the Florida Securities and Investor Protection Act to
five (5) or more purchasers in such state are voidable by the subscriber either
within three (3) days after the first tender of consideration is made by the
subscriber or within three (3) days after the availability of that privilege is
