6
Section
4. Conversion.
a) Voluntary
Conversion.
At any
time after the Original Issue Date until this Debenture is no longer
outstanding, this Debenture shall be convertible, in whole or in part, into
shares of Common Stock at the option of the Holder, at any time and from time
to
time (subject to the conversion limitations set forth in Section 4(c)
hereof). The Holder shall effect conversions by delivering to the Company a
Notice of Conversion, the form of which is attached hereto as Annex
A
(a
“Notice
of Conversion”),
specifying therein the principal amount of this Debenture to be converted and
the date on which such conversion shall be effected (such date, the
“Conversion
Date”).
If no
Conversion Date is specified in a Notice of Conversion, the Conversion Date
shall be the date that such Notice of Conversion is deemed delivered hereunder.
To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically
surrender this Debenture to the Company unless the entire principal amount
of
this Debenture has been so converted. Conversions hereunder shall have the
effect of lowering the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture in an
amount equal to the applicable conversion. The Holder and the Company shall
maintain records showing the principal amount(s) converted and the date of
such
conversion(s). The Company may deliver an objection to any Notice of Conversion
within two (2) Business Days of delivery of such Notice of Conversion. In the
event of any dispute or discrepancy, the records of the Holder shall be
controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error. The
Holder, and any assignee by acceptance of this Debenture, acknowledge and agree
that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of
a
portion of this Debenture, the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of this
Debenture may be less than the amount stated on the face
hereof.
b) Conversion
Price.
The
conversion price in effect on any Conversion Date shall be equal to $0.9824,
subject
to adjustment herein (the “Conversion
Price”).
7
c) Conversion
Limitations.
The
Company shall not effect any conversion of this Debenture, and a Holder shall
not have the right to convert any portion of this Debenture, to the extent
that
after giving effect to the conversion set forth on the applicable Notice of
Conversion, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other
person or entity acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the
Holder’s Affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial
Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing
sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder
and its Affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of this Debenture with respect to which such determination
is
being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are
issuable upon (A) conversion of the remaining, unconverted principal amount
of
this Debenture beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates, and
(B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any
other securities of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion or
exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein (including, without
limitation, any other Debentures or the Warrants) beneficially owned by the
Holder or any of its Affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding
sentence, for purposes of this Section 4(c), beneficial ownership shall be
calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules
and regulations promulgated thereunder. To the extent that the limitation
contained in this Section 4(c) applies, the determination of whether this
Debenture is convertible (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder
together with any Affiliates) and of which principal amount of this Debenture
is
convertible shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission
of
a Notice of Conversion shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of
whether this Debenture may be converted (in relation to other securities owned
by the Holder together with any Affiliates) and which principal amount of this
Debenture is convertible, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership
Limitation. To ensure compliance with this restriction, the Holder will be
deemed to represent to the Company each time it delivers a Notice of Conversion
that such Notice of Conversion has not violated the restrictions set forth
in
this paragraph and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm
the
accuracy of such determination. In
addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall
be
determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and
the
rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For
purposes of this Section 4(c), in determining the number of outstanding shares
of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of
Common Stock as stated in the most recent of the following: (A) the Company’s
most recent Form 10-QSB or Form 10-KSB, as the case may be; (B) a more recent
public announcement by the Company; or (C) a more recent notice by the Company
or the Company’s transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the
Company shall within two (2) Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to
the
Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case,
the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after
giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company,
including this Debenture, by the Holder or its Affiliates since the date as
of
which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The
“Beneficial
Ownership Limitation”
shall
be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately
after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of this Debenture held by the Holder. The Holder, upon not less
than
61 days’ prior notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial
Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 4(c), provided that the
Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of
shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the
issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Debenture held by
the
Holder and the provisions of this Section 4(c) shall continue to apply. Any
such
increase or decrease will not be effective until the 61st
day
after such notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph
shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict
conformity with the terms of this Section 4(c) to correct this paragraph (or
any
portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended
Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or
supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such
limitation.
The
limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of
this
Debenture.
8
d) Mechanics
of Conversion.
i. Conversion
Shares Issuable Upon Conversion of Principal Amount.
The
number of Conversion Shares issuable upon a conversion hereunder shall be
determined by the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding principal
amount of this Debenture to be converted by (y) the Conversion
Price.
ii. Delivery
of Certificate Upon Conversion.
Not
later than three (3) Trading Days after each Conversion Date (the “Share
Delivery Date”),
the
Company shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Holder a certificate
or
certificates representing the Conversion Shares which shall be free of
restrictive legends and trading restrictions (other than those which may then
be
required by the Purchase Agreement) representing the number of Conversion Shares
being acquired upon the conversion of this Debenture. The Company shall, if
available and if allowed under applicable securities laws, use its best efforts
to deliver any certificate or certificates required to be delivered by the
Company under this Section 4 electronically through the Depository Trust Company
or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions.
iii. Failure
to Deliver Certificates.
If in
the case of any Notice of Conversion such certificate or certificates are not
delivered to or as directed by the applicable Holder by the third (3rd)
Trading
Day after the Conversion Date, the Holder shall be entitled to elect by written
notice to the Company at any time on or before its receipt of such certificate
or certificates, to rescind such Conversion, in which event the Company shall
promptly return to the Holder any original Debenture delivered to the Company
and the Holder shall promptly return to the Company the Common Stock
certificates representing the principal amount of this Debenture unsuccessfully
tendered for conversion to the Company.
iv. Obligation
Absolute; Partial Liquidated Damages.
The
Company’s obligations to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion
of this Debenture in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and
unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce
the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the
recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same,
or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any
breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation
to
the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any
other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise
limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the
issuance of such Conversion Shares; provided,
however,
that
such delivery shall not operate as a waiver by the Company of any such action
the Company may have against the Holder. In the event the Holder of this
Debenture shall elect to convert any or all of the outstanding principal amount
hereof, the Company may not refuse conversion based on any claim that the Holder
or anyone associated or affiliated with the Holder has been engaged in any
violation of law, agreement or for any other reason, unless an injunction from
a
court, on notice to Holder, restraining and or enjoining conversion of all
or
part of this Debenture shall have been sought and obtained, and the Company
posts a surety bond for the benefit of the Holder in the amount of 150% of
the
outstanding principal amount of this Debenture, which is subject to the
injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of
arbitration/litigation of the underlying dispute and the proceeds of which
shall
be payable to the Holder to the extent it obtains judgment. In the absence
of
such injunction, the Company shall issue Conversion Shares or, if applicable,
cash, upon a properly noticed conversion. If the Company fails for any reason
to
deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates pursuant to Section
4(d)(ii) by the third Trading Day after the Conversion Date (the “Delivery
Deadline”),
the
Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as
a
penalty, for each $1,000 of principal amount being converted, $10 per Trading
Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day seven (7) Trading Day after such
liquidated damages have begun to accrue) for each Trading Day after the second
(2nd)
Trading
Day after the Delivery Deadline 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 8 hereof for the Company’s failure to deliver
Conversion Shares within the period specified herein and the Holder shall have
the right to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, 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 Holder
from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under
applicable law.
9
v. Compensation
for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon
Conversion.
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 by the
Share Delivery Date pursuant to Section 4(d)(ii), and if, after such Share
Delivery Date, the Holder is required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in
an
open market transaction or otherwise), or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise
purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the
Holder of the Conversion Shares which the Holder was entitled to receive upon
the conversion relating to such Share Delivery Date (a “Buy-In”),
then
the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder (in addition to any other
remedies available to or elected by the Holder) the amount by which (x) the
Holder’s total purchase price (including any brokerage commissions) for the
Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1) the aggregate number
of
shares of Common Stock that the Holder was entitled to receive from the
conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the actual sale price at which the sell
order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed (including any
brokerage commissions) and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reissue
(if
surrendered) this Debenture in a 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 if the Company had timely complied
with
its delivery requirements under Section 4(d)(ii). 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 this Debenture with respect
to
which the actual sale price of the Conversion Shares (including any brokerage
commissions) giving rise to such purchase obligation 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
and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing
herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it
hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of
specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s
failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock
upon
conversion of this Debenture as required pursuant to the terms
hereof.
10
vi. Reservation
of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion.
The
Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out
of
its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock for the sole purpose of
issuance upon conversion of this Debenture, as herein provided, free from
preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of Persons
other than the Holder (and the other holders of the Debentures), not less than
such aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock as shall (subject to the
terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement) be issuable (taking
into account the adjustments of Section 5) upon the conversion of the
outstanding principal amount of this Debenture. The Company covenants that
all
shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly
authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
vii. Fractional
Shares.
No
fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon
the conversion of this Debenture. As to any fraction of a share which Holder
would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such conversion, the Company shall
at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction
in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Conversion Price or round
up to the next whole share.
viii. Transfer
Taxes.
The
issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on conversion of this
Debenture shall be made without charge to the Holder hereof for any documentary
stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery
of such certificates, 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 this Debenture 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.
11
Section
5. Certain
Adjustments.
a) Stock
Dividends and Stock Splits.
If the
Company, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding: (A) pays a stock
dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions payable in shares
of
Common Stock on shares of Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalents (which,
for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued
by
the Company upon conversion of the Debentures); (B) subdivides outstanding
shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares; (C) combines (including
by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
smaller number of shares; or (D) issues, in the event of a reclassification
of
shares of the Common Stock, any shares of capital stock of the Company, then
the
Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall
be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the
Company) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator
shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately 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.
b) Subsequent
Equity Sales.
If, at
any time while this Debenture is outstanding, the Company or any Subsidiary,
as
applicable, sells or grants any option to purchase or sells or grants any right
to reprice, or otherwise disposes of or issues (or announces any sale, grant
or
any option to purchase or other disposition), any Common Stock or Common Stock
Equivalents entitling any Person to acquire shares of Common Stock at an
effective price per share that is lower than the then Conversion Price (such
lower price, the “Base
Conversion Price”
and
such issuances, collectively, a “Dilutive
Issuance”)
(if
the holder of the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents 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 are issued in connection with such
issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price
per share that is lower than the Conversion Price, such issuance shall be deemed
to have occurred for less than the Conversion Price on such date of the Dilutive
Issuance), then the Conversion Price shall be reduced to equal the Base
Conversion Price. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such Common Stock
or
Common Stock Equivalents are issued. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no adjustment will be made under this Section 5(b) in respect
of
an Exempt Issuance.
If the
Company enters into a Variable Rate Transaction, despite the prohibition set
forth in the Purchase Agreement, the Company shall be deemed to have issued
Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents at the lowest possible conversion
price
at which such securities may be converted or exercised. The Company shall notify
the Holder in writing, no later than two (2) Business Days following the
issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents subject to this Section
5(b), indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or applicable reset
price, exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms (such notice,
the “Dilutive
Issuance Notice”).
For
purposes of clarification, whether or not the Company provides a Dilutive
Issuance Notice pursuant to this Section 5(b), upon the occurrence of any
Dilutive Issuance, the Holder is entitled to receive a number of Conversion
Shares based upon the Base Conversion Price on or after the date of such
Dilutive Issuance, regardless of whether the Holder accurately refers to the
Base Conversion Price in the Notice of Conversion.
12
c) Subsequent
Rights Offerings.
If the
Company, at any time while the Debenture is 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 that is lower than the VWAP on the record date referenced 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 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 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 (assuming
delivery to the Company in full of all consideration payable upon exercise
of
such rights, options or warrants) would purchase at such VWAP. 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.
d) Pro
Rata Distributions.
If the
Company, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding, distributes to all
holders of Common Stock (and not to the Holders) evidences of its indebtedness
or assets (including cash and cash dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe
for or purchase any security (other than the Common Stock, which shall be
subject to Section 5(b)), then in each such case the Conversion Price shall
be
adjusted by multiplying such 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 VWAP determined
as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be
such
VWAP 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 (1) outstanding share of the Common Stock as determined by the Board
of
Directors of the Company in good faith. In either case the adjustments shall
be
described in a statement delivered to the Holder describing the portion of
assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or such subscription rights
applicable to one (1) 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.
13
e) Fundamental
Transaction.
If, at
any time while this Debenture is outstanding, (A) the Company effects any merger
or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (B) the Company
effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one transaction
or
a series of related transactions, (C) any tender offer or exchange offer
(whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which
holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for
other securities, cash or property, or (D) the Company effects any
reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant
to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other
securities, cash or property (in any such case, a “Fundamental
Transaction”),
then,
upon any subsequent conversion of this Debenture, the Holder shall have the
right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon
such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental
Transaction, the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property as it
would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental
Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction,
the holder of one (1) share of Common Stock (the “Alternate
Consideration”).
For
purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Conversion Price
shall
be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on
the
amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one (1) share of Common
Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the
Conversion Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner
reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate
Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the
securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then
the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration
it
receives upon any conversion of this Debenture following such Fundamental
Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions,
any
successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction
shall issue to the Holder a new debenture consistent with the foregoing
provisions and evidencing the Holder’s right to convert such debenture into
Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a
Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such
successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this Section
5(e)
and insuring that this Debenture (or any such replacement security) will be
similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental
Transaction.
f) Calculations.
All
calculations under this Section 5 shall be made to the nearest cent or the
nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section
5,
the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as
of a
given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding
any treasury shares of the Company) issued and outstanding.
g) Notice
to the Holder.
i. Adjustment
to Conversion Price.
Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this
Section 5, the Company shall promptly deliver to each Holder a notice setting
forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief
statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
14
ii. Notice
to Allow Conversion by Xxxxxx.
If (A)
the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever
form) on the Common Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring
cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Company shall
authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock of rights or warrants
to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of
any
rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required
in
connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation
or
merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company, of any compulsory share exchange
whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property
or
(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 this Debenture, and shall cause to be delivered
to the Holder at its last address as it shall appear upon the Debenture
Register, at least twenty (20) calendar days prior to the applicable record
or
effective date 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 deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof
shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified
in such notice. The Holder is entitled to convert this Debenture during the
20-day period commencing on the date of such notice through the effective date
of the event triggering such notice.
Section
6. Redemption
and Forced Conversion.
a) Optional
Redemption at Election of Company.
Subject
to the provisions of this Section 6, at any time after the twelve (12) month
anniversary of the date of the Purchase Agreement, the Company may deliver
a
notice to the Holder (an “Optional
Redemption Notice”
and
the
date such notice is deemed delivered hereunder, the “Optional
Redemption Notice Date”)
of its
irrevocable election to redeem some or all of the then outstanding principal
amount of this Debenture for cash in an amount equal to the Optional Redemption
Amount on the twentieth (20th)Trading
Day following the Optional Redemption Notice Date (such date, the “Optional
Redemption Date”
and
such redemption, the “Optional
Redemption”).
The
Optional Redemption Amount is payable in full on the Optional Redemption Date.
The Company may only effect an Optional Redemption if each of the Equity
Conditions shall have been met (unless waived in writing by the Holder) on
each
Trading Day during the period commencing on the Optional Redemption Notice
Date
through to the Optional Redemption Date and through and including the date
payment of the Optional Redemption Amount is actually made in full. If any
of
the Equity Conditions shall cease to be satisfied at any time during the twenty
(20) Trading Day period, then the Holder may elect to nullify the Optional
Redemption Notice by notice to the Company within three (3) Trading Days after
the first day on which any such Equity Condition has not been met (provided
that
if, by a provision of the Transaction Documents, the Company is obligated to
notify the Holder of the non-existence of an Equity Condition, such notice
period shall be extended to the third Trading Day after proper notice from
the
Company) in which case the Optional Redemption Notice shall be null and void,
ab
initio. The Company covenants and agrees that it will honor all Notices of
Conversion tendered from the time of delivery of the Optional Redemption Notice
through the date all amounts owing thereon are due and paid in
full.
15
b) Redemption
Procedure.
The
payment of cash or issuance of Common Stock, as applicable, pursuant to an
Optional Redemption shall be payable on the Optional Redemption Date. If any
portion of the payment pursuant to an Optional Redemption shall not be paid
by
the Company by the applicable due date, interest shall accrue thereon at an
interest rate equal to the lesser of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or the
maximum rate permitted by applicable law until such amount is paid in full.
Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, if any portion of
the
Optional Redemption Amount remains unpaid after such date, the Holder may elect,
by written notice to the Company given at any time thereafter, to invalidate
such Optional Redemption, ab initio, and, with respect to the Company’s failure
to honor the Optional Redemption, the Company shall have no further right to
exercise such Optional Redemption. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in
this Section 6, the Company’s determination to redeem in cash or its elections
under Section 6(b) shall be applied ratably among the Holders of Debentures.
The
Holder may elect to convert the outstanding principal amount of the Debenture
pursuant to Section 4 prior to actual payment in cash for any redemption under
this Section 6 by the delivery of a Notice of Conversion to the
Company.
c) Forced
Conversion.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if after the twelve (12) month
anniversary of the date of the Purchase Agreement, the VWAP for each of any
thirty (30) consecutive Trading Days, which period shall have commenced only
after the twelve (12) month anniversary of the date of the Purchase Agreement
(such period the “Threshold
Period”),
exceeds 250% of the then Conversion Price (subject to adjustment for reverse
and
forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar
transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the Original Issue Date),
the
Company may, within one (1) Trading Day after the end of any such Threshold
Period, deliver a written notice to the Holder (a “Forced
Conversion Notice”
and
the
date such notice is delivered to the Holder, the “Forced
Conversion Notice Date”)
to
cause the Holder to convert all or part of the then outstanding principal amount
of this Debenture plus, if so specified in the Forced Conversion Notice, accrued
but unpaid liquidated damages and other amounts owing to the Holder under this
Debenture, it being agreed that the “Conversion Date” for purposes of Section 4
shall be deemed to occur on the third (3rd)
Trading
Day following the Forced Conversion Notice Date (such third (3rd)
Trading
Day, the “Forced
Conversion Date”).
The
Company may not deliver a Forced Conversion Notice, and any Forced Conversion
Notice delivered by the Company shall not be effective, unless all of the Equity
Conditions are met (unless waived in writing by the Holder) on each Trading
Day
occurring during the applicable Threshold Period through and including the
later
of the Forced Conversion Date and the Trading Day after the date such Conversion
Shares pursuant to such conversion are delivered to the Holder. Any Forced
Conversion shall be applied ratably to all Holders based on their initial
purchases of Debentures pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, provided that any
voluntary conversions by a Holder shall be applied against the Holder’s pro rata
allocation, thereby decreasing the aggregate amount forcibly converted hereunder
if only a portion of this Debenture is forcibly converted. For purposes of
clarification, a Forced Conversion shall be subject to all of the provisions
of
Section 4, including, without limitation, the provision requiring payment of
liquidated damages and limitations on conversions.
16
Section
7. Negative
Covenants.
As long
as any portion of this Debenture remains outstanding, the Company shall not,
and
shall not permit any of its subsidiaries (whether or not a Subsidiary on the
Original Issue Date) to, directly or indirectly:
d) other
than Permitted Indebtedness, enter into, create, incur, assume, guarantee or
suffer to exist any indebtedness for borrowed money of any kind, including,
but
not limited to, a guarantee, on or with respect to any of its property or assets
now owned or hereafter acquired or any interest therein or any income or profits
therefrom;
e) other
than Permitted Liens, enter into, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist
any
Liens of any kind, on or with respect to any of its property or assets now
owned
or hereafter acquired or any interest therein or any income or profits
therefrom;
f) amend
its
charter documents, including, without limitation, its certificate of
incorporation and bylaws, in any manner that materially and adversely affects
any rights of the Holder;
g) repay,
repurchase or offer to repay, repurchase or otherwise acquire more than a
de minimis
number
of shares of its Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents other than as to
(a)
the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares as permitted or required under the
Transaction Documents and (b) repurchases of Common Stock or Common Stock
Equivalents of departing officers and directors of the Company, provided that
such repurchases shall not exceed an aggregate of $100,000 for all officers
and
directors during the term of this Debenture;
17
h) pay
cash
dividends or distributions on any equity securities of the Company;
i) enter
into any transaction with any Affiliate of the Company which would be required
to be disclosed in any public filing with the Commission, unless such
transaction is made on an arm’s-length basis and expressly approved by a
majority of the disinterested directors of the Company (even if less than a
quorum otherwise required for board approval); or
j) enter
into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing.

case
of a default under clause (B) above, is not cured within three (3) Trading
Days;
ii. the
Company shall fail to observe or perform any other covenant or agreement
contained in the Debentures (other than a breach by the Company of its
obligations to deliver shares of Common Stock to the Holder upon conversion,
which breach is addressed in clause (xi) below) which failure is not cured,
if
possible to cure, within the earlier to occur
of
(A)
five
(5) Trading
Days after notice of such failure sent by the Holder or by any other
Holder
and (B)
ten (10) Trading Days after the Company has become or should have become aware
of such failure;
iii. a

the
Transaction Documents or (B) any other material agreement, lease, document

by clause (vi) below);
18
iv. any

untrue or incorrect in any material respect as of the date when made or deemed
made;
v. the
Company or any Significant Subsidiary shall be subject to a Bankruptcy
Event;
vi. the
Company or any Subsidiary shall default on any of its obligations under any
mortgage, credit agreement or other facility, indenture agreement, factoring

there
may be secured or evidenced, any indebtedness for borrowed money or money due
under any long term leasing or factoring arrangement that (a) involves an
obligation greater than $150,000, whether such indebtedness now exists or shall
hereafter be created, and (b) results in such indebtedness becoming or being
declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise become
due and payable;
vii. the
Common Stock shall not be eligible for listing or quotation for trading on
a
Trading Market and shall not be eligible to resume listing or quotation for
trading thereon within five (5) Trading Days;
viii. the
Company shall be a party to any Change of Control Transaction or Fundamental

19
b) Remedies
Upon Event of Default.
If any
Event of Default occurs, the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture,
plus accrued but unpaid liquidated damages and other amounts owing in respect
thereof through the date of acceleration, shall become, at the Holder’s
election, immediately due and payable in cash at the Mandatory Default Amount.
Commencing five (5) days after the occurrence of any Event of Default that
results in the eventual acceleration of this Debenture, the interest rate on
this Debenture shall accrue at an interest rate equal to the lesser of eighteen
percent (18%) per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law.
Upon
the payment in full of the Mandatory Default Amount, the Holder shall promptly
surrender this Debenture to or as directed by the Company. In connection with
such acceleration described herein, the Holder need not provide, and the Company
hereby waives, any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind,
and
the Holder may immediately and without expiration of any grace period enforce
any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies
available to it under applicable law. Such acceleration may be rescinded and
annulled by Xxxxxx at any time prior to payment hereunder and the Holder shall
have all rights as a holder of the Debenture until such time, if any, as the
Holder receives full payment pursuant to this Section 8(b). No such rescission
or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right
consequent thereon.
Section

20
b) Absolute
Obligation.
Except
as expressly provided herein, no provision of this Debenture shall alter or
impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional,
to
pay the principal of, and liquidated damages, as applicable, on this Debenture
at the time, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
This Debenture is a direct debt obligation of the Company. This Debenture ranks
pari passu
with all
other Debentures now or hereafter issued under the terms set forth
herein.
c) Lost
or Mutilated Debenture.
If this
Debenture shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall
execute and deliver, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation
of a
mutilated Debenture, or in lieu of or in substitution for a lost, stolen or
destroyed Debenture, a new Debenture for the principal amount of this Debenture
so mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, but only upon receipt of evidence
of
such loss, theft or destruction of such Debenture, and of the ownership hereof,
reasonably satisfactory to the Company.
d) Governing
Law.
All
questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation
of this Debenture shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance
with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the
principles of conflict of laws thereof. Each party agrees that all legal
proceedings concerning the interpretation, enforcement and defense of the
transactions contemplated by any of the Transaction Documents (whether brought
against a party hereto or its respective Affiliates, directors, officers,
shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced in the state and federal
courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan (the “New
York Courts”).
Each
party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the
New
York Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection
herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein
(including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents),
and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action
or
proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction
of
such New York Courts, or such New York Courts are improper or inconvenient
venue
for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service
of
process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or
proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or
overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address
in
effect for notices to it under this Debenture and agrees that such service
shall
constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing
contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process
in any other manner permitted by applicable law. Each party hereto hereby
irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any
and
all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating
to
this Debenture or the transactions contemplated hereby. If either party shall
commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Debenture,
then the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed
by
the other party for its attorney’s fees and other costs and expenses incurred in
the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or
proceeding.
21
e) Waiver.
Any
waiver by the Company or the Holder of a breach of any provision of this
Debenture shall not operate as or be construed to be a waiver of any other
breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this
Debenture. The failure of the Company or the Holder to insist upon strict
adherence to any term of this Debenture on one or more occasions shall not
be
considered a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist
upon
strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Debenture. Any waiver
by
the Company or the Holder must be in writing.
f) Severability.
If any
provision of this Debenture is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance
of
this Debenture shall remain in effect, and if any provision is inapplicable
to
any Person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all
other
Persons and circumstances. If it shall be found that any interest or other
amount deemed interest due hereunder violates the applicable law governing
usury, the applicable rate of interest due hereunder shall automatically be
lowered to equal the maximum rate of interest permitted under applicable law.
The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall
not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take
the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law or other law
which
would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the
principal of this Debenture as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or
at
any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the
performance of this indenture, and the Company (to the extent it may lawfully
do
so) hereby expressly waives all benefits or advantage of any such law, and
covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede
the execution of any power herein granted to the Holder, but will suffer and
permit the execution of every such as though no such law has been
enacted.
g) Next
Business Day.
Whenever any payment or other obligation hereunder shall be due on a day other
than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business
Day.
h) Headings.
The
headings contained herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part
of
this Debenture and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions
hereof.
i) Assumption.
Any successor to the Company or any surviving entity in a Fundamental
Transaction shall (i) assume, prior to such Fundamental Transaction, all of
the
obligations of the Company under this Debenture and the other Transaction
Documents pursuant to written agreements in form and substance satisfactory
to
the Holder (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and (ii)
issue to the Holder a new debenture of such successor entity evidenced by a
written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this
Debenture, including, without limitation, having a principal amount equal to
the
principal amount of this Debenture and having similar ranking to this Debenture,
which shall be satisfactory to the Holder (any such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed). The provisions of this Section 9(i)

shall be applied without regard to any limitations of this
Debenture.
