XXXXXXXX DATE September 30, 2005
MATURITY DATE September 30, 2010
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Securac Corp. a Nevada corporation (the "Company"),
hereby promises to pay DUTCHESS PRIVATE EQUITIES FUND, II, LP ("Holder") by
September 30, 2010 (the "Maturity Date"), the principal amount of Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($500,000) U.S., and to pay interest and redemption on the
principal amount hereof, and any accrued penalties accrued, in such amounts, at
such times and on such terms and conditions as are specified herein.
The Debenture is subject to automatic conversion at the end of five (5)
years from the date of issuance at which time the Debenture outstanding will be
automatically converted based upon the formula set forth in Section 3.2 (c).
Article 1 Interest
The Company shall pay ten percent (10%) annual coupon on the unpaid Face
Amount of this Debenture (the "Debenture") at such times and in such amounts as
outlined in this section. The Company will make mandatory prepaid payments, in
advance, on the interest ("Interest Payment"), with the minimum Interest
Payments outlined in Exhibit B for the first one (1) month, and herein
incorporate by reference in the amount of four thousand one hundred and
twenty-five dollars and ninety-six cents ($4,125.96) per month for the first one
(1) month following Issuance Date. The first Interest Payment is due within
three days of funds being disbursed to the Company (a "Closing:").
Any monies paid to the Holder in excess of the interest due when paid shall
be credited toward the Face Amount of the Debenture.
Article 2 Method of Payment
Section 2.1 Prior to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC") declaring the registration statement for the shares underlying the
Debenture ("Registration Statement") effective ("Effective Date").
Amortizing payments will be made by the Company in satisfaction of this
Debenture (each a "Payment," and collectively, the "Payments") shall be made
monthly on the first day of each business day of each month while there is an
outstanding balance on the Debenture, to the Holder, in the amounts ("Payment
Amount" and collectively, the "Payment Amounts") outlined below on the following
schedule:
Payment for Month 1 (due within three (3) days of the Issuance Date) $4,125.96
Payment for Month 2 and each month thereafter $54,345.18
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Debenture, the Company may
pay in full to the Holder the Face Amount, or any balance remaining thereof, in
readily available funds at any time and from time to time without penalty.
The minimum Payments are outlined on Exhibit B, attached hereto and incorporate
by reference.
Section 2.2 Subsequent to the Effective Date.
The Holder, at its sole option, shall be entitled to either a) request a
Payment from the Company in the amounts set forth in the table in Section 2.1
above; or, b) the Holder may elect to convert a portion of the Debenture
pursuant to Article 3 below in an amount equal to the Payment Amount. In the
event the Holder is unable to convert that portion of the debenture equal to the
Payment Amount during a calendar month, the Company shall make a payment in an
amount equal to the difference between the amount converted by the Holder and
the Payment Amount due for that month.
Nothing contained in this Article 2 shall limit the amount the Holder can
elect to convert during a calendar month except as defined in Section 3.2 (i)
All Payments made in this Article 2, shall be applied toward the Redemption
Amount as outlined in Article 14, herein.
Section 2.3 Prepayment
The Company may make additional payments ("Prepayment") without any penalties.
After Closing, the Company must make a Prepayment to the Holder when the
aggregate amount of financing received by the Company is in excess of $500,000
("Threshold Amount"). The Company agrees to pay one hundred percent (100%) of
any proceeds raised by the Company over the Threshold Amount toward the
Prepayment of the Debenture with Interest until the Amount is paid in full. The
Prepayments shall be made to the Holder upon the Company's receipt of the
financing. Failure to do so will result in an event of default.
Article 3 Conversion
Section 3.1 Conversion Privilege
(a) The Holder of this Debenture shall have the right to convert any and all
amounts owing under this Debenture into shares of Common Stock at any time
following the Closing Date and which is before the close of business on the
Maturity Date, except as set forth in Section 3.1(c) below. The number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of this Debenture is
determined pursuant to Section 3.2 and rounding the result to the nearest whole
share.
(b) This Debenture may not be converted, whether in whole or in part, except
in accordance with this Article 3.
(c) In the event all or any portion of this Debenture remains outstanding on
the Maturity Date, the unconverted portion of such Debenture will
automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock on such date in the
manner set forth in Section 3.2.
Section 3.2 Conversion Procedure.
(a) Conversion Procedures. The unpaid Face Amount of and accrued interest on
this Debenture may be converted, in whole or in part, any time following
the Closing Date. Such conversion shall be effectuated by sending to the
Company a facsimile or via electronic mail the signed Notice of Conversion which
evidences Holder's intention to convert the Debenture indicated. The date on
which the Notice of Conversion is delivered ("Conversion Date") shall be deemed
to be the date on which the Holder has delivered to the Company a facsimile of
the signed Notice of Conversion. Notwithstanding the above, any Notice of
Conversion received by 5:00 P.M. EST, shall be deemed to have been received the
previous business day, with receipt being via a confirmation of time of
facsimile of the Holder.
(b) Common Stock to be Issued. Upon the conversion of any Debenture and upon
receipt by the Company of a facsimile of Holder's signed Notice of Conversion
the Company shall instruct its transfer agent to issue stock certificates
without restrictive legend (other than a legend referring to the registration
statement and prospectus delivery requirements) or stop transfer instructions,
if at that time the Registration Statement has been declared effective (or with
proper restrictive legend if the Registration Statement has not as yet been
declared effective), in such denominations to be specified at conversion
representing the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion,
as applicable. The Company shall act as Registrar and shall maintain an
appropriate ledger containing the necessary information with respect to each
Debenture. The Company warrants that no instructions, other than these
instructions, have been given or will be given to the transfer agent and that
the Common Stock shall otherwise be freely resold, except as may be set forth
herein.
(c) Conversion Rate. Holder is entitled to convert the unpaid Face Amount of
this Debenture, plus accrued interest, any time following the Closing Date, at
the lesser of (i) the lowest closing bid price of the Common Stock between the
Issuance Date and the date of filing the registration statement covering resale
of the shares underlying this Debenture; or (ii) fifty-five cents ($.55).
("Fixed Conversion Price"), each being referred to as the "Conversion Price". No
fractional shares or scrip representing fractions of shares will be issued on
conversion, but the number of shares issuable shall be rounded up, as the case
may be, to the nearest whole share. The Holder shall retain all rights of
conversions during any partial trading days.
(d) Nothing contained in this Debenture shall be deemed to establish or require
the payment of interest to the Holder at a rate in excess of the maximum rate
permitted by governing law. In the event that the rate of interest required to
be paid exceeds the maximum rate permitted by governing law, the rate of
interest required to be paid thereunder shall be automatically reduced to the
maximum rate permitted under the governing law and such excess shall be returned
with reasonable promptness by the Holder to the Company.
(e) It shall be the Company's responsibility to take all necessary actions
and to bear all such costs to issue the Common Stock as provided herein,
including the responsibility and cost for delivery of an opinion letter to the
transfer agent, if so required. The person in whose name the certificate of
Common Stock is to be registered shall be treated as a shareholder of record on
and after the conversion date. Upon surrender of any Debentures that are to be
converted in part, the Company shall issue to the Holder a new Debenture equal
to the unconverted amount, if so requested in writing by Holder.
(f) Within three (3) business days after receipt of the documentation referred
to above in Section 3.2(a), the Company shall deliver a certificate, in
accordance with Section 3.2(c) for the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon the conversion. In the event the Company does not make delivery of the
Common Stock, as instructed by Holder, within three (3) business days after the
Conversion Date, then in such event the Company shall pay to Holder three
percent (3%) per day in cash, of the dollar value of the Debentures being
converted, compounded daily, per each day after the third (3rd) business day
following the Conversion Date that the Common Stock is not delivered to the
Purchaser, as liquidated damages.
The Company acknowledges that its failure to deliver the Common
Stock within three (3) business days after the Conversion Date will cause the
Holder to suffer damages in an amount that will be difficult to ascertain.
Accordingly, the parties agree that it is appropriate to include in this
Debenture a provision for liquidated damages. The parties acknowledge and agree
that the liquidated damages provision set forth in this section represents the
parties' good faith effort to quantify such damages and, as such, agree that the
form and amount of such liquidated damages are reasonable and will not
constitute a penalty. The payment of liquidated damages shall not relieve the
Company from its obligations to deliver the Common Stock pursuant to the terms
of this Debenture.
To the extent that the failure of the Company to issue the Common
Stock pursuant to this Section 3.2(f) is due to the unavailability of authorized
but unissued shares of Common Stock, the provisions of this Section 3.2(f) shall
not apply but instead the provisions of Section 3.2(m) shall apply.
The Company shall make any payments incurred under this Section
3.2(f) in immediately available funds within three (3) business days from the
date the Common Stock is fully delivered. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder's
right to pursue actual damages or cancel the conversion for the Company's
failure to issue and deliver Common Stock to the Holder within three (3)
business days after the Conversion Date.
The Company shall at all times reserve (or make alternative written
arrangements for reservation or contribution of shares) and have available all
Common Stock necessary to meet conversion of the Debentures by all Holders of
the entire amount of Debentures then outstanding. If, at any time Holder submits
a Notice of Conversion and the Company does not have sufficient authorized but
unissued shares of Common Stock (or alternative shares of Common Stock as may be
contributed by Stockholders) available to effect, in full, a conversion of the
Debentures (a "Conversion Default", the date of such default being referred to
herein as the "Conversion Default Date"), the Company shall issue to the Holder
all of the shares of Common Stock which are available, and the Notice of
Conversion as to any Debentures requested to be converted but not converted (the
"Unconverted Debentures"), may be deemed null and void upon written notice sent
by the Holder to the Company. The Company shall provide notice of such
Conversion Default ("Notice of Conversion Default") to all existing Holders of
outstanding Debentures, by facsimile, within three (3) business days of such
default (with the original delivered by overnight or two day courier), and the
Holder shall give notice to the Company by facsimile within five business days
of receipt of the Notice of Conversion Default (with the original delivered by
overnight or two day courier) of its election to either nullify or confirm the
Notice of Conversion.
The Company agrees to pay to Holder of outstanding Debenture payments for a
Conversion Default ("Conversion Default Payments") in the amount of (N/365) x
(.24) x the initial issuance price of the outstanding and/or tendered but not
converted Debentures held by each Holder where N = the number of days from the
Conversion Default Date to the date (the "Authorization Date") that the Company
authorizes a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to effect conversion of
all remaining Debentures. The Company shall send notice ("Authorization
Notice") to Holder of outstanding Debenture that additional shares of Common
Stock have been authorized; stating the Authorization Date and the amount of
Holder's accrued Conversion Default Payments. The accrued Conversion Default
shall be paid in cash or shall be convertible into Common Stock at the
Conversion Rate, upon written notice sent by the Holder to the Company, which
Conversion Default shall be payable as follows: (i) in the event Holder elects
to take such payment in cash, cash payments shall be made to such Holder of
outstanding Debentures by the fifth (5th) day of the following calendar month,
or (ii) in the event Holder elects to take such payment in stock, the Holder may
convert such payment amount into Common Stock at the conversion rate set forth
in Section 3.2(c) at any time after the fifth (5th) day of the calendar month
following the month in which the Authorization Notice was received, until the
expiration of the mandatory three (3) year conversion period.
The Company acknowledges that its failure to maintain a sufficient number
of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to effect in full a conversion
of the Debenture will cause the Holder to suffer damages in an amount that will
be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, the parties agree that it is
appropriate to include in this Agreement a provision for liquidated damages.
The parties acknowledge and agree that the liquidated damages provision set
forth in this section represents the parties' good faith effort to quantify such
damages and, as such, agree that the form and amount of such liquidated damages
are reasonable and will not constitute a penalty. The payment of liquidated
damages shall not relieve the Company from its obligations to deliver the Common
Stock pursuant to the terms of this Debenture. Nothing herein shall limit the
Holder's right to pursue actual damages for the Company's failure to maintain a
sufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock.
If, by the third (3rd) business day after the Conversion Date of any
portion of the Debenture to be converted (the "Delivery Date"), the transfer
agent fails for any reason to deliver the Common Stock upon conversion by the
Holder and after such Delivery Date the Holder purchases, in an open market
transaction or otherwise, shares of Common Stock (the "Covering Shares") solely
in order to make delivery in satisfaction of a sale of Common Stock by the
Holder (the "Sold Shares"), which delivery such Holder anticipated to make using
the Common Stock issuable upon conversion (a "Buy-In"), the Company shall pay to
the Holder, in addition to any other amounts due to Holder pursuant to this
Debenture, and not in lieu thereof, the Buy-In Adjustment Amount (as defined
below). The "Buy In Adjustment Amount" is the amount equal to the excess, if
any, of (x) the Holder's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions,
if any) for the Covering Shares over (y) the net proceeds (after brokerage
commissions, if any) received by the Holder from the sale of the Sold Shares.
The Company shall pay the Buy-In Adjustment Amount to the Holder in immediately
available funds within three (3) business days of written demand by the Holder.
By way of illustration and not in limitation of the foregoing, if the Holder
purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price (including
brokerage commissions) of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to shares of
Common Stock it sold for net proceeds of $10,000, the Buy-In Adjustment Amount
which the Company will be required to pay to the Holder will be $1,000.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Holder agrees not to engage, directly or
indirectly in any short sales in the Common Stock
(g) Prospectus and Other Documents. The Company shall furnish to Holder such
number of prospectuses and other documents incidental to the registration of the
shares of Common Stock underlying the Debentures, including any amendment of or
supplements thereto. Any filings submitted via XXXXX will constitute
fulfillment.
(h) Limitation on Issuance of Shares. If the Company's Common Stock becomes
listed on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market after the issuance of the Debenture, the
Company may be limited in the number of shares of Common Stock it may issue by
virtue of (X) the number of authorized shares or (Y) the applicable rules and
regulations of the principal securities market on which the Common Stock is
listed or traded, including, but not necessarily limited to, NASDAQ Rule
4310(c)(25)(H)(i) or Rule 4460(i)(1), as may be applicable (collectively, the
"Cap Regulations"). Without limiting the other provisions thereof, (i) the
Company will take all steps reasonably necessary to be in a position to issue
shares of Common Stock on conversion of the Debentures without violating the Cap
Regulations and (ii) if, despite taking such steps, the Company still cannot
issue such shares of Common Stock without violating the Cap Regulations, the
holder of a Debenture which cannot be converted as result of the Cap Regulations
(each such Debenture, an "Unconverted Debenture") shall have the right to elect
either of the following remedies:
(x) if permitted by the Cap Regulations, require the Company to issue
shares of Common Stock in accordance with such holder's Notice of Conversion at
a conversion purchase price equal to the average of the closing bid price per
share of Common Stock for any five (5) consecutive Trading Days (subject to
certain equitable adjustments for certain events occurring during such period)
during the sixty (60) Trading Days immediately preceding the Conversion Date; or
(y) require the Company to redeem each Unconverted Debenture for an amount
(the "Redemption Amount"), payable in cash, equal to the sum of (i) one hundred
thirty-three percent (133%) of the principal of an Unconverted Debenture, plus
(ii) any accrued but unpaid interest thereon through and including the date (the
"Redemption Date") on which the Redemption Amount is paid to the holder.
A holder of an Unconverted Debenture may elect one of the above remedies
with respect to a portion of such Unconverted Debenture and the other remedy
with respect to other portions of the Unconverted Debenture. The Debenture
shall contain provisions substantially consistent with the above terms, with
such additional provisions as may be consented to by the Holder. The provisions
of this section are not intended to limit the scope of the provisions otherwise
included in the Debenture.
(i) Limitation on Amount of Conversion and Ownership. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Debenture, in no event shall the Holder be entitled to
convert that amount of Debenture, and in no event shall the Company permit that
amount of conversion, into that number of shares, which when added to the sum of
the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned, (as such term is
defined under Section 13(d) and Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as may be amended, (the "1934 Act")), by the Holder, would exceed 4.99% of
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Conversion Date, as
determined in accordance with Rule 13d-1(j) of the 1934 Act. In the event that
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as determined in accordance
with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act is different on any Conversion Date than it
was on the Closing Date, then the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
on such Conversion Date shall govern for purposes of determining whether the
Holder would be acquiring beneficial ownership of more than 4.99% of the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such Conversion Date.
(j) Legend. The Holder acknowledges that each certificate representing the
Debentures, and the Common Stock unless registered pursuant to the Registration
Rights Agreement, shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend
substantially in the following form:
THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD,
TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT (i) PURSUANT
TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
AMENDED, (ii) TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE, RULE 144 UNDER THE ACT (OR ANY SIMILAR
RULE UNDER SUCH ACT RELATING TO THE DISPOSITION OF SECURITIES), OR (iii) IF AN
EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT IS AVAILABLE.
(m) Prior to conversion of the Debenture, if at any time the conversion of
all the Debentures and exercise of all the Warrants outstanding would result in
an insufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock being available to
cover all the conversions, then in such event, the Company will move to call and
hold a shareholder's meeting or have shareholder action with written consent of
the proper number of shareholders within thirty (30) days of such event, or such
greater period of time if statutorily required or reasonably necessary as
regards standard brokerage house and/or SEC requirements and/or procedures, for
the purpose of authorizing additional shares of Common Stock to facilitate the
conversions. In such an event management of the Company shall recommend to all
shareholders to vote their shares in favor of increasing the authorized number
of shares of Common Stock. Management of the Company shall vote all of its
shares of Common Stock in favor of increasing the number of shares of authorized
Common Stock. The Company represents and warrants that under no circumstances
will it deny or prevent Holder's right to convert the Debentures as permitted
under the terms of this Subscription Agreement or the Registration Rights
Agreement. Nothing in this Section shall limit the obligation of the Company to
make the payments set forth in Section 3.2(g). The investor, at his option, may
request the company to authorize and issue additional shares if the investor
feels it is necessary for conversions in the future. In the event the Company's
shareholder's meeting does not result in the necessary authorization, the
Company shall redeem the outstanding Debentures for an amount equal to (x) the
sum of the principal of the outstanding Debentures plus accrued interest thereon
multiplied by (y) 133%.
Section 3.3 Fractional Shares. The Company shall not issue fractional shares of
Common Stock, or scrip representing fractions of such shares, upon the
conversion of this Debenture. Instead, the Company shall round up or down, as
the case may be, to the nearest whole share.
Section 3.4 Taxes on Conversion. The Company shall pay any documentary,
stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of shares of Common
Stock upon the conversion of this Debenture. However, the Holder shall pay any
such tax which is due because the shares are issued in a name other than its
name.
Section 3.5 Company to Reserve Stock. The Company shall reserve the number of
shares of Common Stock required pursuant to and upon the terms set forth in the
Subscription Agreement to permit the conversion of this Debenture. All shares of
Common Stock which may be issued upon the conversion hereof shall upon issuance
be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens
and charges with respect to the issuance thereof.
Section 3.6 Restrictions on Sale. This Debenture has not been registered under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the "Act") and is being issued under
Section 4(2) of the Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Act.
This Debenture and the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion thereof may
only be sold pursuant to registration under or an exemption from the Act.
Article 4 Mergers
The Company shall not consolidate or merge into, or transfer all or
substantially all of its assets to, any person, unless such person assumes in
writing the obligations of the Company under this Debenture and immediately
after such transaction no Event of Default exists. Any reference herein to the
Company shall refer to such surviving or transferee corporation and the
obligations of the Company shall terminate upon such written assumption.
Article 5 Security
This Debenture is secured by a Security Agreement (the "Security
Agreement") of even date herewith between the Company and the Holder.
Article 6 Defaults and Remedies
Section 6.1 Events of Default. An "Event of Default" occurs if (a) the Company
does not make the Payment of the principal of this Debenture by conversion into
Common Stock within five (5) business days of the Maturity Date, upon redemption
or otherwise, (b) the Company does not make a payment, other than a payment of
principal, for a period of three (3) business days thereafter, (c) any of the
Company's representations or warranties contained in the Subscription Agreement
or this Debenture were false when made or the Company fails to comply with any
of its other agreements in the Transaction Documents (as defined in Article 16
below) and such failure continues for a period of five (5) business days, (d)
the Company pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law (as
hereinafter defined): (i) commences a voluntary case; (ii) consents to the entry
of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case; (iii) consents to the
appointment of a Custodian (as hereinafter defined) of it or for all or
substantially all of its property or (iv) makes a general assignment for the
benefit of its creditors or (v) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an
order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that: (A) is for relief against the
Company in an involuntary case; (B) appoints a Custodian of the Company or for
all or substantially all of its property or (C) orders the liquidation of the
Company, and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for sixty (60)
calendar days, (e) the Company's Common Stock is suspended or no longer listed
on any recognized exchange including electronic over-the-counter bulletin board
for in excess of five (5) consecutive Trading Days (e) the Company violates any
terms and conditions of the Registration Rights Agreement (f) the Registration
Statement underlying the Debenture is not declared effective by the SEC within
twelve (12) months of the Issuance Date.
As used in this Section 6.1, the term "Bankruptcy Law" means Title 11 of the
United States Code or any similar federal or state law for the relief of
debtors. The term "Custodian" means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator
or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law. A default under clause (c) or (e)
above is not an Event of Default until the holders of at least one hundred
percent (100%) of the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures outstanding
notify the Company of such default and the Company does not cure it within five
(5) business days after the receipt of such notice, unless the Company commences
to cure such default within such period, which must specify the default, demand
that it be remedied and state that it is a "Notice of Default". Prior to the
expiration of the time for curing a default as set forth in the preceding
sentence, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Debentures at the time outstanding (exclusive of Debentures then owned by the
Company or any subsidiary or affiliate) may, on behalf of the holders of all of
the Debentures, waive any past Event of Default hereunder (or any past event
which, with the lapse of time or notice and lapse of time designated in
subsection (a), would constitute an Event of Default hereunder) and its
consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of or interest on
any of the Debentures. In the case of any such waiver, such default or Event of
Default shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Debenture
and the Company and the holders of the Debentures shall be restored to their
former positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall
extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent
thereon.
In the Event of Default and provided the Debentures have not been paid
in full, the Holder may elect to secure a portion of the Company's assets not to
exceed 200% of the Face Amount of the Note, in Pledged Collateral (as defined
in the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Agreement). The Holder may also elect to
garnishee Revenue from the Company in an amount that will repay the Holder on
the schedules outlined in this Agreement.
In the Event of Default, as outlined in this Agreement, the Holder can
exercise its right to increase the Face Amount of the Debenture by ten percent
(10%) as an initial penalty and for each Event of Default under this Agreement.
In addition, the Holder may elect to increase the Face Amount by two and
one-half percent (2.5%) per month (pro-rata for partial periods) paid as a
penalty for liquated damages ("Liquidated Damages"). The Liquated Damages will
be compounded daily. It is the intention and acknowledgement of both parties
that the Liquidated Damages not be deemed as interest. In order to exercise its
right to trigger either the 10% penalty or the Liquidated Damages, the Holder
shall give the Company three (3) business days' prior written notice, specifying
in reasonable detail the basis therefor. If during such period the Company
redeems the Debenture as outlined in Article 14, neither the 10% penalty nor the
Liquidated Damages shall become effective.
In the event of Default, specifically to Section 6.1 (f), the Holder may
elect to switch the Conversion Price of the Debenture as outlined in Section 3.2
(c) above ("Default Conversion Price"). The Default Conversion Price shall be
equal to the lesser of a) the Fixed Conversion Price or b) seventy percent (70%)
of the lowest closing bid price of the Common Stock during the fifteen (15)
trading days prior to conversion. Upon written notice being sent to the Company
by the Holder of Default under Section 6.1 (f), and the Holder's election to
exercise the remedy to switch the conversion price to the Default Conversion
Price, the Company shall immediately withdraw the Registration Statement.
Further, the Company agrees that the date of consideration for the Debenture
shall remain the Issuance Date stated herein. The Company shall provide an
opinion letter from counsel within two (2) business days of written request by
the Holder stating that the date of consideration for the Debenture is the
Issuance Date and submission of proper Rule 144 support documentation consisting
of Form 144, a broker's representation letter and a seller's representation
letter. In the event the Company does not deliver the opinion letter within two
business days, the Default Conversion Price shall immediately decrease by two
percent (2%) for each business day an opinion letter fails to be delivered. In
the event that counsel to the Company fails or refuses to render an opinion as
required to issue the Shares in accordance with this paragraph (either with or
without restrictive legends, as applicable), then the Company irrevocably and
expressly authorizes counsel to the Investor to render such opinion and shall
authorize the Transfer Agent shall accept and be entitled to rely on such
opinion for the purposes of issuing the Shares. Any costs incurred by Holder
for such opinion letter shall be added to the Face Amount of the Debenture.
Section 6.2 Acceleration. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing,
the Holder hereof by notice to the Company may declare the remaining principal
amount of this Debenture, together with all accrued interest and any liquidated
damages, to be due and payable. Upon such declaration, the remaining principal
amount shall be due and payable immediately.
Section 6.3 Seniority. No indebtedness of the Company is senior to this
Debenture in right of payment, whether with respect to interest, damages or upon
liquidation or dissolution or otherwise.
Article 7 Registered Debentures
Section 7.1 Record Ownership. The Company, or its attorney, shall maintain
a register of the holders of the Debentures (the "Register") showing their names
and addresses and the serial numbers and principal amounts of Debentures
issued to them. The Register may be maintained in electronic, magnetic or other
computerized form. The Company may treat the person named as the Holder of this
Debenture in the Register as the sole owner of this Debenture. The Holder of
this Debenture is the person exclusively entitled to receive payments of
interest on this Debenture, receive notifications with respect to this
Debenture, convert it into Common Stock and otherwise exercise all of the rights
and powers as the absolute owner hereof.
