the Borrower, the Holder and certain other holders (the “Other Holders”) of
convertible promissory notes (the “Other Notes”), dated of even date herewith
(the “Subscription Agreement”), and shall be governed by the terms of such
Subscription Agreement. Unless otherwise separately defined herein, all
capitalized terms used in this Note shall have the same meaning as is set
forth
in the Subscription Agreement. The following terms shall apply to this
Note:
ARTICLE
I
INTEREST;
AMORTIZATION
1.1. Interest
Rate.
Subject
to Section 5.7 hereof, interest payable on this Note shall accrue on the
outstanding Principal Amount at a rate per annum (the “Interest Rate”) of ten
percent (10%). Interest on the outstanding Principal Xxxxxx shall accrue
from
the date of this Note and shall be payable in arrears together with, at the
same
time and in the same manner as payment of Principal Xxxxxx and on the Maturity
Date, whether by acceleration or otherwise. For purposes of calculating the
conversion price pursuant to Section 2.1(ii)(B), each interest due date shall
be
deemed the Repayment Date, as defined in Section 1.2.
1.2. Minimum
Monthly Principal Payments.
Amortizing payments of the outstanding Principal Amount of this Note and
accrued
interest shall commence on the sixth month anniversary date of this Note
and on
the same day of each month thereafter (each a “Repayment Date”) until the
Principal Amount has been repaid in full, whether by the payment of cash
or by
the conversion of such Principal Amount and interest into Common Stock pursuant
to the terms hereof. Subject to Section 2.1 and Article 3 below, on each
Repayment Date, the Borrower shall make payments to the Holder in an amount
equal to 5.55% of the initial Principal Amount, the amount of accrued but
unpaid
or unconverted interest on the entire Principal Amount as of such Repayment
Date, and any other amounts which are then owing under this Note that have
not
been paid
(collectively, the “Monthly Amount”). Amounts of conversions of Principal Xxxxxx
and made by the Holder or Borrower pursuant to Section 2.1 or Article III
and
amounts redeemed pursuant to Section
2.3 of this Note shall
be
applied first against outstanding fees and damages, then outstanding already
payable accrued interest and then to Principal Amounts of not yet due Monthly
Amounts commencing with the last Monthly Amount next payable and thereafter
to
Monthly Amounts in reverse chronological order. Any Principal Amount, interest
and any other sum arising under this Note and the Subscription Agreement
that
remains outstanding on the Maturity Date shall be due and payable on the
Maturity Date.

Interest Rate.
Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default
(as
defined in Article IV), which, if susceptible to cure is not cured within
five
(5) days, otherwise then from the first date of such occurrence, the annual
interest rate on this Note shall (subject to Section 4.7) be fifteen percent
(15%). Such interest shall be due and payable together with regular scheduled
Monthly Amounts.
ARTICLE
II
CONVERSION
AND REPAYMENT
2.1.
Payment
of Monthly Amount in Cash or Common Stock.
Subject
to Section 3.2 hereof, the Borrower shall pay the Monthly Amount, at the
Borrower’s election, in either of the following manners: (i) in cash in an
amount equal to 115% of the Principal Amount component of the Monthly Amount
and
100% of all other components of the Monthly Amount within three (3) business
days after the applicable Repayment Date, or (ii) in registered Common Stock
at
an applied conversion rate equal to the lesser of (A) the Fixed Conversion
Price
(as defined in section 3.1 hereof), or (B) seventy-five percent (75%) of
the
average of the closing bid price of the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg
L.P. for the Principal Market for the five trading days preceding such Repayment
Date (as such amount may be adjusted as described herein). Amounts paid with
shares of Common Stock must be delivered to the Holder not later than three
(3)
business days after the applicable Repayment Date. The Borrower must send
notice
to the Holder by confirmed telecopier not later than 6:00 PM, New York City
time
on the twenty-second trading day preceding a Repayment Date notifying Holder
of
Borrower’s election to pay the Monthly Amount in cash or Common Stock. The
Notice must state the amount of the Monthly Amount including a description
of
the components of such Monthly Amount and include supporting calculations.
Elections by the Borrower must be made to all Other Holders in proportion
to the
relative Note principal held by the Holder and the Other Holders. If such
notice
is not timely sent or if the Monthly Redemption Amount is not timely delivered
or if the Borrower elects to pay the Monthly Amount with Common Stock, then
Holder shall have the right, instead of the Company, to elect in writing,
whether to be paid in cash or Common Stock or defer the payment of the relevant
Monthly Amount until three (3) business days after demand therefore by the
Holder. Any payments due after the Holder makes its election shall be due
the
later of three (3) days after written notice by the Holder or the applicable
Repayment Date. The conversion price in connection with such deferred Monthly
Amount shall be the lowest conversion price that could be calculated for
any
Repayment Date from the Repayment Date for such deferred Monthly Amount until
such Monthly Amount is actually paid. Such Holder’s election shall not be
construed to be a waiver of any default by Borrower relating to non-timely
compliance by Borrower with any of its obligations under this Note.
2.2. No
Effective Registration.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no amount payable hereunder
may
be
paid in
shares
of Common
Stock by
the Borrower without the Holder’s consent unless (a) either (i) an effective
current Registration Statement covering the shares of Common Stock to be
issued
in satisfaction of such obligations exists, or (ii) an exemption from
registration of the resale of shares of Common Stock to be issued in
satisfaction of such obligations is available pursuant to Rule 144(k) of
the
1933 Act, (b) no Event of Default hereunder (or an event that with the passage
of time or the giving of notice could become an Event of Default), has occurred
or is otherwise waived in writing by the Holder in whole or in part at the
Holder’s option, and (c) the Principal Market is either the OTC Bulletin Board,
American Stock Exchange, Nasdaq Capital Market, Nasdaq National Market, or
New
York Stock Exchange (“Listing Condition”) from and after thirty (30) days prior
to a Repayment Date.
2
2.3. Optional
Redemption of Principal Amount.
Provided an Event of Default or an event which with the passage of time or
the
giving of notice could become an Event of Default has not occurred, whether
or
not such Event of Default has been cured, the Borrower will have the option
of
prepaying the outstanding Principal amount of this Note (“Optional Redemption”),
in whole or in part, by paying to the Holder a sum of money equal to one
hundred
and thirty percent (130%) of the Principal amount to be redeemed, together
with
accrued but unpaid interest thereon and any and all other sums due, accrued
or
payable to the Holder arising under this Note or any Transaction Document
through the Redemption Payment Date as defined below (the “Redemption Amount”).
Xxxxxxxx’s election to exercise its right to prepay must be by notice in writing
(“Notice of Redemption”). The Notice of Redemption shall specify the date for
such Optional Redemption (the “Redemption Payment Date”), which date shall be
thirty (30) business days after the date of the Notice of Redemption (the
“Redemption Period”). A Notice of Redemption shall not be effective with respect
to any portion of the Principal Amount for which the Holder has a pending
election to convert, or for conversions initiated or made by the Holder during
the Redemption Period. On the Redemption Payment Date, the Redemption Amount,
less any portion of the Redemption Amount against which the Holder has exercised
its conversion rights, shall be paid in good funds to the Holder. In the
event
the Borrower fails to pay the Redemption Amount on the Redemption Payment
Date
as set forth herein, then (i) such Notice of Redemption will be null and
void,
(ii) Borrower will have no right to deliver another Notice of Redemption,
and
(iii) Borrower’s failure may be deemed by Holder to be a non-curable Event of
Default. A Redemption Notice may be given only at a time a Registration
Statement is effective. A Notice of Redemption may not be given nor may the
Borrower effectuate a Redemption without the consent of the Holder, if at
any
time during the Redemption Period an Event of Default or an Event which with
the
passage of time or giving of notice could become an Event of Default (whether
or
not such Event of Default has been cured), has occurred or the Registration
Statement registering the Registrable Securities is not effective each day
during the Redemption Period.
ARTICLE
III
CONVERSION
RIGHTS
3.1. Holder’s
Conversion Rights.
Subject
to Section 3.2, the Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation,
to
convert all or any portion of the then aggregate outstanding Principal Amount
of
this Note, together with interest and fees due hereon, and any sum arising
under
the Subscription Agreement, and the Transaction Documents, including but
not
limited to Liquidated Damages, into shares of Common Stock, subject to the
terms
and conditions set forth in this Article III, at the rate of $0.25 per share
of
Common Stock (“Fixed Conversion Price”), as the same may be adjusted pursuant to
this Note and the Subscription Agreement. The Holder may exercise such right
by
delivery to the Borrower of a written Notice of Conversion pursuant to Section
3.3.
3.2. Conversion
Limitation.
Neither
Holder
nor the Borrower may convert on any date that amount of the Note Principal
or
interest in connection with that number of shares of Common Stock which would
be
in excess of the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially
owned by the Holder and its affiliates on a Conversion Date, Repayment Date,
or
interest payment date, as the case may be, (ii) any Common Stock issuable
in
connection with the unconverted portion of the Note, and (iii) the number
of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Note with respect
to
which the determination of this provision is being made, which would result
in
beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99%
of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Borrower on such Conversion Date.
For
the purposes of the provision to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial
ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder. Subject
to
the foregoing, the Holder shall not be limited to aggregate conversions of
only
4.99% and aggregate conversion by the Holder may exceed 4.99%. The Holder
shall
have the authority and obligation to determine whether the restriction contained
in this Section 3.2 will limit any conversion hereunder and to the extent
that
the Holder determines that the limitation contained in this Section applies,
the
determination of which portion of the Notes are convertible shall be the
responsibility and obligation of the Holder. The Holder may waive the conversion
limitation described in this Section 3.2, in whole or in part, upon and
effective after 61 days prior written notice to the Borrower to increase
such
percentage to up to 9.99%.
3
3.3. Mechanics
of Holder’s Conversion.
(a) In
the
event that the Holder elects to convert any amounts outstanding under this
Note
into Common Stock, the Holder shall give notice of such election by delivering
an executed and completed notice of conversion (a “Notice of Conversion”) to the
Borrower, which Notice of Conversion shall provide a breakdown in reasonable
detail of the Principal Amount, accrued interest and amounts being converted.
The original Note is not
required
to be surrendered to the Borrower
until
all sums due under the Note have been paid. On each Conversion Date (as
hereinafter defined) and in accordance with its Notice of Conversion, the
Holder
shall make the appropriate reduction to the Principal Amount, accrued interest
and fees as entered in its records.
Each
date
on which a Notice of Conversion is delivered or telecopied to the Borrower
in
accordance with the provisions hereof shall be deemed a “Conversion Date.” A
form of Notice of Conversion
to be employed by the Holder is annexed hereto as Exhibit A.
(b) Pursuant
to the terms of a Notice of Conversion, the Borrower will issue instructions
to
the transfer agent accompanied by an opinion of counsel (if so required by
the
Borrower’s transfer agent), and, except as otherwise provided below, shall cause
the transfer agent to transmit the certificates representing the Conversion
Shares to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s designated broker
with the Depository Trust Corporation (“DTC”) through its Deposit Withdrawal
Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system within three (3) business days after receipt by
the Borrower of the Notice of Conversion (the “Delivery Date”). In the case of
the exercise of the conversion rights set forth herein, the conversion privilege
shall be deemed to have been exercised and the Conversion Shares issuable
upon
such conversion shall be deemed to have been issued upon the date of receipt
by
the Borrower of the Notice of Conversion. The Holder shall be treated for
all
purposes as the beneficial holder of such shares of Common Stock, or, in
the
case that Borrower delivers physical certificates as set forth below, the
record
holder of such shares of Common Stock, unless the Holder provides the Borrower
written instructions to the contrary. Notwithstanding
the foregoing to the contrary, the Borrower or its transfer agent shall only
be
obligated to issue and deliver the shares to the DTC on the Holder’s behalf via
DWAC (or certificates free of restrictive legends) if the registration statement
providing for the resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
conversion of this Note is effective and the Holder has complied with all
applicable securities laws in connection with the sale of the Common Stock,
including, without limitation, the prospectus delivery requirements and has
provided representations accordingly. In the event that Conversion Shares
cannot
be delivered to the Holder via DWAC, the Borrower shall deliver physical
certificates representing the Conversion Shares by the Delivery Date to an
address designated by Holder in the U.S.
3.4. Conversion
Mechanics.
(a) The
number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this
Note
pursuant to this Article III shall be determined by dividing that portion
of the
Principal Amount and interest and fees to be converted, if any, by the then
applicable Fixed Conversion Price.
(b) The
Fixed
Conversion Price and number and kind of shares or other securities to be
issued
upon conversion shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the
happening of certain events while this conversion right remains outstanding,
as
follows:
X. Xxxxxx,
Sale of Assets, etc.
If the
Borrower at any time shall consolidate with or merge into or sell or convey
all
or substantially all its assets to any other corporation, this Note, as to
the
unpaid principal portion thereof and accrued interest thereon, shall thereafter
be deemed to evidence the right to convert into such number and kind of shares
or other securities and property as would have been issuable or distributable
on
account of such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, upon or with respect
to the securities subject to the conversion right immediately prior to such
consolidation, merger, sale, or conveyance. The foregoing provision shall
similarly apply to successive transactions of a similar nature by any such
successor or purchaser. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the
anti-dilution provisions of this Section shall apply to such securities of
such
successor or purchaser after any such consolidation, merger, sale, or
conveyance.
4
B. Reclassification,
etc.
If the
Borrower at any time shall, by reclassification or otherwise, change the
Common
Stock into the same or a different number of securities of any class or classes,
this Note, as to the unpaid principal portion hereof and accrued interest
hereon, shall thereafter be deemed to evidence the right to convert into
an
adjusted number of such securities and kind of securities as would have been
issuable as the result of such change with respect to the Common Stock
immediately prior to such reclassification or other change.
C. Stock
Splits, Combinations and Dividends.
If the
shares of Common Stock are subdivided or combined into a greater or smaller
number of shares of Common Stock, or if a dividend is paid on the Common
Stock
in shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately
reduced
in case of subdivision of shares or stock dividend or proportionately increased
in the case of combination of shares, in each such case by the ratio which
the
total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such
event
bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to such event.
D. Share
Issuance.
So long
as this Note is outstanding, if the Borrower shall issue any Common Stock
except
for the Excepted Issuances (as defined in the Subscription Agreement), prior
to
the complete conversion or payment of this Note, for a consideration less
than
the Fixed Conversion Price that would be in effect at the time of such issue,
then, and thereafter successively upon each such issuance, the Fixed Conversion
Price shall be reduced to such other lower issue price. For purposes of this
adjustment, the issuance of any security or debt instrument of the Borrower
carrying the right to convert such security or debt instrument into Common
Stock
or of any warrant, right or option to purchase Common Stock shall result
in an
adjustment to the Fixed Conversion Price upon the issuance of the
above-described security, debt instrument, warrant, right, or option and
again
upon the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of such conversion
or
purchase rights if such issuance is at a price lower than the then applicable
Conversion Price. The reduction of the Fixed Conversion Price described in
this
paragraph is in addition to the other rights of the Holder described in the
Subscription Agreement.
(c) Whenever
the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 3.4(b) above, the Borrower
shall promptly mail to the Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price
after such adjustment and setting forth a statement of the facts requiring
such
adjustment.
3.5. Reservation.
During
the period the conversion right exists, Borrower will reserve from its
authorized and unissued Common Stock not less than
one
hundred
fifty percent
(150%)
of the
number of shares to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full
conversion of this Note.
Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly
issued, fully
paid and
non-assessable. Xxxxxxxx agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute
full authority to its officers, agents, and transfer agents who are charged
with
the duty of executing and issuing stock certificates to execute and issue
the
necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of
this
Note.
3.6 Issuance
of Replacement Note.
Upon
any partial conversion of this Note, a replacement Note containing the same
date
and provisions of this Note shall,
at the
written request of the Holder, be
issued
by the Borrower to the Holder for the outstanding Principal Amount of this
Note
and accrued interest which shall not have been converted or paid, provided
Xxxxxx has surrendered an original Note to the Borrower. In the event that
the
Holder elects not to surrender a Note for reissuance upon partial payment
or
conversion, the Holder hereby indemnifies the Borrower against any and all
loss
or damage attributable to a third-party claim in an amount in excess of the
actual amount then due under the Note, and the
Borrower is hereby expressly authorized to offset any such amounts mutually
agreed upon by Borrower and Holder or pursuant to a judgment in Xxxxxxxx’s favor
against amounts then due under the Note.

SECURITY
INTEREST
5. Security
Interest/Waiver of Automatic Stay.
This
Note is secured by a security interest granted to the Collateral Agent for
the
benefit of the Holder pursuant to a Security Agreement, as delivered by Borrower
to Holder. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that should a proceeding
under
any bankruptcy or insolvency law be commenced by or against the Borrower,
or if
any of the Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement) should become
the
subject of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, then the Holder should
be
entitled to, among other relief to which the Holder may be entitled under
the
Transaction Documents and any other agreement to which the Borrower and Holder
are parties (collectively, “Loan Documents”) and/or applicable law, an order
from the court granting immediate relief from the automatic stay pursuant
to 11
U.S.C. Section 362 to permit the Holder to exercise all of its rights and
remedies pursuant to the Loan Documents and/or applicable law. TO THE EXTENT
PERMITTED BY LAW, THE BORROWER EXPRESSLY WAIVES THE BENEFIT OF THE AUTOMATIC
STAY IMPOSED BY 11 U.S.C. SECTION 362. FURTHERMORE, THE BORROWER EXPRESSLY
ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT NEITHER 11 U.S.C. SECTION 362 NOR ANY OTHER

neither the Holder nor any person acting on behalf of the Holder has made
