thirty days of the date of a declaration of an Event of Default and then
-4-
held by the Holder and (B) the Per Share Market Value (as defined in Section 6)
on the date of default, the date that prepayment is due or the date the full

Debenture holder until such time, if any, as the full payment under this Section

SECTION 4. CONVERSION.
(a) (i) CONVERSION AT OPTION OF HOLDER. This Debenture shall be
convertible into shares of Common Stock at the option of the Holder, in whole or
in part at any time and from time to time, after the Original Issue Date
(subject to the limitations on conversion set forth in Section 4(a)(ii) hereof).
The Holder shall effect conversions by delivering to the Company a completed
notice in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT A (a "CONVERSION NOTICE"),
including a completed Conversion Schedule in the form of SCHEDULE 1 to the
Conversion Notice (on each Conversion Date, the "CONVERSION SCHEDULE"). The
Conversion Schedule shall set forth the remaining principal amount of this
Debenture and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon subsequent to the
conversion at issue. The date on which a Conversion Notice is delivered is the
"CONVERSION DATE." Unless the Holder is converting the entire principal amount
outstanding under this Debenture, the Holder is not be required to physically
surrender this Debenture to the Company in order to effect conversions. Subject
to Section 4(b), each Conversion Notice, once given, shall be irrevocable.
Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding
principal amount of this Debenture plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon
in an amount equal to the applicable conversion, which shall be evidenced by
entries set forth in the Conversion Schedule. The Holder and the Company shall
maintain records showing the principal amount converted and the date of such
conversions. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, the records of the
Holder shall be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error.
(ii) CERTAIN CONVERSION RESTRICTIONS.
(A) A Holder may not convert Debentures or receive shares of Common
Stock as payment of interest hereunder to the extent such conversion or receipt
of such interest payment would result in the Holder, together with any affiliate
thereof, beneficially owning (as determined
-5-
in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (as defined in Section 6)
and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 4.999% of the then issued and
outstanding shares of Common Stock, including shares issuable upon conversion
of, and payment of interest on, the Debentures held by such Holder after
application of this Section. If the Holder has delivered a Conversion Notice for
a principal amount of Debentures that, without regard to any other shares that
the Holder or its affiliates may beneficially own, would result in the issuance
in excess of the permitted amount hereunder, the Company shall notify the Holder
of this fact and shall honor the conversion for the maximum principal amount
permitted to be converted on such Conversion Date in accordance with the periods
described in Section 4(b) and, at the option of the Holder, either retain any
principal amount tendered for conversion in excess of the permitted amount
hereunder for future conversions or return such excess principal amount to the
Holder. In the event of a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into
another Person, this paragraph shall not apply with respect to a determination
of the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion in full of the
Debenture if such determination is necessary to establish the securities or
other assets which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive upon
the effectiveness of such merger or consolidation. The provisions of this
Section 4(a)(ii)(A) may be waived by the Holder upon not less than 61 days prior
notice to the Company.
(B) A Holder may not convert Debentures or receive shares of Common
Stock as payment of interest hereunder to the extent such conversion or receipt
of such interest payment would result in the Holder, together with any affiliate
thereof, beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of
the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 9.999% of
the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, including shares
issuable upon conversion of, and payment of interest on, the Debentures held by
such Holder after application of this Section. If the Holder has delivered a
Conversion Notice for a principal amount of Debentures that, without regard to
any other shares that the Holder or its affiliates may beneficially own, would
result in the issuance in excess of the permitted amount hereunder, the Company
shall notify the Holder of this fact and shall honor the conversion for the
maximum principal amount permitted to be converted on such Conversion Date in
accordance with the periods described in Section 4(b) and, at the option of the
Holder, either retain any principal amount tendered for conversion in excess of
the permitted amount hereunder for future conversions or return such excess
principal amount to the Holder. In the event of a merger or consolidation of the
Company with or into another Person, this paragraph shall not apply with respect
to a determination of the number of shares of common stock issuable upon
conversion in full of the Debenture if such determination is necessary to
establish the securities or other assets which the holders of Common Stock shall
be entitled to receive upon the effectiveness of such merger or consolidation.
The provisions of this Section 4(a)(ii)(B) may be waived by the Holder upon not
less than 61 days prior notice to the Company.
(iii) NUMBER OF UNDERLYING SHARES ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION. (A) The
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion hereunder shall be
determined by adding the sum of: (i) the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the
outstanding principal amount of this Debenture to be converted and (y) the
Conversion Price, and (ii) the amount equal to (I) the product
-6-
of (x) the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture to be converted and
(y) the product of (1) the quotient obtained by dividing .10 by 360 and (2) the
number of days for which such principal amount was outstanding, divided by (II)
the Conversion Price on the Conversion Date, PROVIDED, that if the Company shall
have elected to pay the interest due on a Conversion Date in cash pursuant to
the terms hereof, subsection (ii) shall not be used in the calculation of the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion hereunder.
(B) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
if on any Conversion Date:
(1) the number of shares of Common Stock at the time
authorized, unissued and unreserved for all purposes, or held as treasury
stock, is insufficient to pay interest hereunder in shares of Common
Stock;
(2) the Underlying Shares issuable for such conversion
(including any interest payable in shares) (x) are not registered for
resale pursuant to an effective Underlying Shares Registration Statement
and (y) may not be sold without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule
144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act;
(3) the Common Stock is not listed or quoted for trading on
the OTC or a Subsequent Market;
(4) the issuance of such shares of Common Stock would result
in a violation of Sections 4(a)(ii)(A) or (B),
then, the Company may not pay interest in kind and must pay
interest in cash by delivering, within three Trading Days of each applicable
Conversion Date, an amount in cash equal to the product of: (a) the outstanding
principal amount of the Debentures to be converted on such Conversion Date and
(b) the product of (x) the quotient obtained by dividing .10 by 360 and (y) the
number of days for which such principal amount was outstanding.
(b) (i) Not later than three Trading Days after any Conversion Date:
(i) the Company shall deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates which
shall be free of restrictive legends and trading restrictions (other than those
required by Section 3.1(b) of the Purchase Agreement) representing the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion in accordance with the
terms hereof, and (ii) if accrued interest is paid in cash, the Company will
deliver to the Holder a bank check, payable to Holder, in the amount of accrued
and unpaid interest. If requested by a Holder, the Company will use its best
efforts to deliver conversion shares electronically through the Depository Trust
Corporation or another established clearing corporation performing similar
functions. If shares of Common Stock issuable following a Conversion Notice are
not delivered to or as directed by the Holder by the third Trading Day after a
Conversion Date, the Holder shall be entitled by written notice to the Company
at any time on or before its receipt of such shares, to rescind such conversion,
in which event the Company shall immediately return to the
-7-
Holder a Debenture in principal amount equal to the principal amount, interest
and all other amounts due in respect of the Conversion Notice (provided the
Holder is converting the entire principal amount outstanding under this
Debenture).
(ii) If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder
such certificate or certificates pursuant to Section 4(b)(i) by the third
Trading Day after the Conversion Date, the Company shall pay to such Holder, in
cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, $5,000 for each Trading Day
after such third Trading Day until such certificates are delivered. Nothing
herein shall limit a Xxxxxx's right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event
of Default pursuant to Section 3 herein for the Company's failure to deliver
certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon conversion within the
period specified herein and such Holder shall have the right to pursue all
remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a
decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief. The exercise of any
such rights shall not prohibit the Holders from seeking to enforce damages
pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law. Further, if the
Company shall not have delivered any cash due in respect of conversions of
Debentures or as payment of interest thereon by the third Trading Day after the
Conversion Date, the Holder may, by notice to the Company, require the Company
to issue shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 4(c), except that for such
purpose the Conversion Price applicable thereto shall be the lesser of the
Conversion Price on the Conversion Date and the Conversion Price on the date of
such Holder demand. Any such shares will be subject to the provision of this
Section.
(iii) In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if
the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate or
certificates pursuant to Section 4(b)(i) by the third Trading Day after the
Conversion Date, and if after such third Trading Day the Holder purchases (in an
open market transaction or otherwise) Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of
a sale by such Holder of the Underlying Shares which the Holder anticipated
receiving upon such conversion (a "BUY-IN"), then the Company shall (A) pay in
cash to the Holder (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by the
Holder) the amount by which (x) the Holder's total purchase price (including
brokerage commissions, if any) for the Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the
product of (1) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that such Holder
anticipated receiving from the conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the market
price of the Common Stock at the time of the sale giving rise to such purchase
obligation and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reissue Debentures in
principal amount equal to the principal amount of the attempted conversion or
deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been
issued had the Company timely complied with its delivery requirements under
Section 4(b)(i). For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a
total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted
conversion of Debentures with respect to which the market price of the
Underlying Shares on the date of conversion was a total of $10,000 under clause
(A) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall be required to pay
the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice
indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if a Holder requires
the Company to make payment in respect of a Buy-In for the failure to timely
deliver certificates hereunder and the Company timely pays in full such payment,
the Company shall not be
-8-
required to pay such Holder liquidated damages under Section 4(b)(ii) in respect
of the certificates resulting in such Buy-In.
(c) (i) The conversion price (the "CONVERSION PRICE") in effect on
any Conversion Date shall be the lesser of (1) $0.85 (the "INITIAL CONVERSION
PRICE"), and (2) 60% of the average of the lowest three inter-day trading prices
(which need not occur on consecutive Trading Days but which one or more may
occur on the same Trading Day) during the twenty Trading Days immediately
preceding the applicable Conversion Date (which may include Trading Days prior
to the Original Issue Date), PROVIDED, that such twenty Trading Day period shall
be extended for the number of Trading Days during such period in which: (A)
trading in the Common Stock is suspended by, or not traded on, the OTC or a
Subsequent Market on which the Common Stock is then listed, or (B) after the
date declared effective by the Commission, the Underlying Shares Registration
Statement is either not effective or the Prospectus included in the Underlying
Shares Registration Statement may not be used by the Holder for the resale of
Underlying Shares.
(ii) If the Company, at any time while the Debentures are
outstanding: (a) shall pay a stock dividend or otherwise make a distribution or
distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity
equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock, (b) subdivide
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (c) combine
(including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a smaller number of shares, or (d) issue by reclassification of shares of
the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then the Initial
Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall
be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any)
outstanding before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding after such event. Any adjustment made
pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after the record
date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or
distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in
the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.
(iii) If the Company, at any time while Debentures are outstanding,
shall issue rights, options or warrants to all holders of Common Stock (and not
to Holders) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock
at a price per share less than the Per Share Market Value at the record date
mentioned below, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction, of
which the denominator shall be the number of shares of the Common Stock
(excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding on the date of issuance of such
rights or warrants plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered
for subscription or purchase, and of which the numerator shall be the number of
shares of the Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding on
the date of issuance of such rights or warrants plus the number of shares which
the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares so offered would
purchase at such Per Share Market Value. Such adjustment shall be made whenever
such rights or warrants are issued, and shall become effective immediately after
the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such
rights, options or warrants. However, upon the expiration of any such right,
option or warrant to purchase shares of the Common Stock the issuance of which
resulted in an adjustment
-9-
in the Conversion Price pursuant to this Section, if any such right, option or
warrant shall expire and shall not have been exercised, the Conversion Price
shall immediately upon such expiration be recomputed and effective immediately
upon such expiration be increased to the price which it would have been (but
reflecting any other adjustments in the Conversion Price made pursuant to the
provisions of this Section after the issuance of such rights or warrants) had
the adjustment of the Conversion Price made upon the issuance of such rights,
options or warrants been made on the basis of offering for subscription or
purchase only that number of shares of the Common Stock actually purchased upon
the exercise of such rights, options or warrants actually exercised.
(iv) If the Company or any subsidiary thereof, as applicable with
respect to Common Stock Equivalents (as defined below), at any time while
Debentures are outstanding, shall issue shares of Common Stock or rights,
warrants, options or other securities or debt that are convertible into or
exchangeable for shares of Common Stock ("COMMON STOCK EQUIVALENTS") entitling
any Person to acquire shares of Common Stock, at a price per share less than the
Conversion Price then the Conversion Price shall be adjusted to mirror the
conversion, exchange or purchase price for such Common Stock or Common Stock
Equivalents (including any reset provisions thereof) at issue. . If the holder
of the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalent so issued shall at any time,
whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset provisions, floating
conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants,
options or rights per share which is issued in connection with such issuance, be
entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at a price per share which is less
than the Conversion Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for
less than the Conversion Price. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such
Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are issued. The Company shall notify
the Holder in writing, no later than the business day following the issuance of
any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalent subject to this section, indicating
therein the applicable issuance price, or of applicable reset price, exchange
price, conversion price and other pricing terms. No adjustment under this
Section shall be made as a result of issuances and exercises of options to
purchase shares of Common Stock issued for compensatory purposes pursuant to any
of the Company's stock option or stock purchase plans.
(v) If the Company, at any time while Debentures are outstanding,
shall distribute to all holders of Common Stock (and not to Holders) evidences
of its indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase
any security, then in each such case the Conversion Price at which Debentures
shall thereafter be convertible shall be determined by multiplying the
Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for
determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a
fraction of which the denominator shall be the Per Share Market Value determined
as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be such
Per Share Market Value on such record date less the then fair market value at
such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness so
distributed applicable to one outstanding share of the Common Stock as
determined by the Board of Directors in good faith. In either case the
adjustments shall be described in a statement provided to the Holders of the
portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or such
subscription rights applicable
-10-
to one share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such
distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the record
date mentioned above.
(vi) In case of any reclassification of the Common Stock or any
compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is converted into
other securities, cash or property, the Holders shall have the right thereafter
to, at their option, (A) convert the then outstanding principal amount, together
with all accrued but unpaid interest and any other amounts then owing hereunder
in respect of this Debenture only into the shares of stock and other securities,
cash and property receivable upon or deemed to be held by holders of the Common
Stock following such reclassification or share exchange, and the Holders of the
Debentures shall be entitled upon such event to receive such amount of
securities, cash or property as the shares of the Common Stock of the Company
into which the then outstanding principal amount, together with all accrued but
unpaid interest and any other amounts then owing hereunder in respect of this
Debenture could have been converted immediately prior to such reclassification
or share exchange would have been entitled or (B) require the Company to prepay
the aggregate of its outstanding principal amount of Debentures, plus all
interest and other amounts due and payable thereon, at a price determined in
accordance with Section 3(b). The entire prepayment price shall be paid in cash.
This provision shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications or share
exchanges.
(vii) All calculations under this Section 4 shall be made to the
nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. No
adjustments in either the Conversion Price or the Initial Conversion Price shall
be required if such adjustment is less than $0.01; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any
adjustments which by reason of this Section are not required to be made shall be
carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.
(viii) Whenever either the Initial Conversion Price or the
Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any of Section 4(c)(ii) - (v), the
Company shall promptly mail to each Holder a notice setting forth the Initial

or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any

compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other
securities, cash or property; (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or
involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the
Company; then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be filed at each office
or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of the Debentures, and shall
cause to be mailed to the Holders at their last addresses as they shall appear
upon the stock books of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the
applicable record or effective date
-11-
hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be
taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or
warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of
the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions,
redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which
such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange
is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is
expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to
exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property
deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or
share exchange; PROVIDED, that the failure to mail such notice or any defect
therein or in the mailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate
action required to be specified in such notice. Holders are entitled to convert

stock and other securities, cash and property receivable upon or deemed to be
held by holders of Common Stock following such merger, consolidation or sale,
and such Holder shall be entitled upon such event or series of related events to
receive such amount of securities, cash and property as the shares of Common
Stock into which such aggregate principal amount of Debentures could have been
converted immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or sales would have
been entitled, or (C) in the case of a merger or consolidation, require the
surviving entity to issue to the Holder convertible debentures with a principal
amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Debentures then held by such
Holder, plus all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts owing thereon,

with respect to conversion) to the terms of this Debenture, and shall be
entitled to all of the rights and privileges of a Holder of Debentures set forth
herein and the agreements pursuant to which the Debentures were issued. In the
case of clause (C), the conversion price applicable for the newly issued shares

amount of securities, cash and property that each share of Common Stock would
receive in such transaction and the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior

this Section upon any conversion or redemption following such event. This
provision shall similarly apply to successive such events.

available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock solely for

interest on the Debentures, each as herein provided, free from preemptive rights

(subject to any additional requirements of the Company as to reservation of such
shares set forth in the Purchase Agreement)

shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly and
validly authorized, issued and fully paid, nonassessable and, if the Underlying
Shares Registration Statement has been declared effective under the Securities
Act, registered for public sale in accordance with such Underlying Shares
Registration Statement.
(e) Upon a conversion hereunder the Company shall not be required to issue
stock certificates representing fractions of shares of the Common Stock, but may
if otherwise permitted, make a cash payment in respect of any final fraction of
a share based on the Per Share Market Value at such time. If the Company elects
not, or is unable, to make such a cash payment, the Holder shall be entitled to
receive, in lieu of the final fraction of a share, one whole share of Common
Stock.
(f) The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on
conversion of the Debentures shall be made without charge to the Holders thereof
for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the
issue or delivery of such certificate, provided that the Company shall not be
required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved
in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name
other than that of the Holder of such Debentures so converted and the Company
shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the
person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company
the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the
Company that such tax has been paid.
