unless, prior to the consummation an Organizational Change, the Company obtains

any such case, the Company will make appropriate provision with respect to such
holders' rights and interests to insure that the provisions of this Section 4(h)
will thereafter be applicable to the Convertible Debentures.
(i) Transactions With Affiliates. So long as any Convertible Debentures
are outstanding, the Company shall not, and shall cause each of its subsidiaries
not to, enter into, amend, modify or supplement, or permit any subsidiary to

collectively referred as the "Permitted Securities"); provided in each instance,
the Company provides the Buyer at least three (3) days prior written notice of
such issuance.
(l) Neither the Buyer(s) nor any of its affiliates have an open short
position in the Common Stock of the Company, and the Buyer(s) agrees that it

representing such amounts of Convertible Debentures as specified from time to
time by the Buyer(s) to the Company upon conversion of the Convertible
Debentures, for interest owed pursuant to the Convertible Debenture, and for any
and all Liquidated Damages (as this term is defined in the Investor Registration
Rights Agreement). Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx, Esq. shall be paid a cash fee of Fifty
Dollars ($50) for every occasion they act pursuant to the Irrevocable Transfer
Agent Instructions. The Company shall not change its transfer agent without the

Securities Act, all such certificates shall bear the restrictive legend
specified in Section 2(g) of this Agreement. The Company warrants that no
instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions referred to
in this Section 5, and stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section 2(g)
hereof (in the case of the Conversion Shares prior to registration of such
shares under the Securities Act) will be given by the Company to its transfer
agent and that the Conversion Shares shall otherwise be freely transferable on
the books and records of the Company as and to the extent provided in this
Agreement and the Investor Registration Rights Agreement. Nothing in this
Section 5 shall affect in any way the Buyer's obligations and agreement to
comply with all applicable securities laws upon resale of Conversion Shares. If
the Buyer(s) provides the Company with an opinion of counsel, in form, scope and
substance customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions to the

Shares is not required under the Securities Act, the Company shall within two
(2) business days instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates
in such name and in such denominations as specified by the Buyer. The Company
acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause
irreparable harm to the Buyer by vitiating the intent and purpose of the
transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the
remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 5 will be
inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the
Company of the provisions of this Section 5, that the Buyer(s) shall be
entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction
restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without
the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security
being required.
