shall issue and deliver the Note against payment, by federal funds wire transfer
of the Purchase Price. All references to "dollars" or "$" in this Agreement
shall mean United States dollars unless otherwise indicated.
The following terms and conditions shall apply to this subscription.
1. Subscriber's Representations and Warranties. The Subscriber hereby
represents and warrants to and agrees with the Company that:

for its own account for investment purposes only and not with a view towards, or
for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof, except
pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the 1933 Act; provided, however,
that by making the representations herein, the Subscriber does not agree to hold
the Securities for any minimum or other specific term and reserves the right to
dispose of the Securities at any time in accordance with or pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the 1933 Act and in compliance with
applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration.
(b) Information on Company. The Subscriber, and its advisors, if
any, have been furnished with written information relating to the business of
the Company and such other information concerning its operations, financial
condition and other matters as the Subscriber has requested. The Subscriber and
its advisors, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the
Company. Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigations
conducted by the Subscriber or its advisors, if any, or their representatives
shall modify, amend or affect the Subscriber's right to rely on the Company's
representations and warranties contained in Section 2 below. The Subscriber
understands that its investment in the Securities involves a high degree of
risk. The Subscriber has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has
considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to its

all factors the Subscriber deems material in deciding on the advisability of
investing in the Securities (such information in writing is collectively, the
"Written Information").

promulgated by the Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"1933 Act"), is experienced in investments and business matters, has made
investments of a speculative nature and has purchased securities of United
States publicly-owned companies in private placements in the past and, with its
representatives, has such knowledge and experience in financial, tax and other
business matters as to enable the Subscriber to utilize the information made
available by the Company to evaluate the merits and risks of and to make an
informed investment decision with respect to the proposed purchase, which
represents a speculative investment. The Subscriber has the authority and is
duly and legally qualified to purchase and own the Securities. The Subscriber is
able to bear the risk of such investment for an indefinite period and to afford
a complete loss thereof.

with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and
understandings of the Subscriber set forth herein in order to determine the
availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of such Subscriber to
acquire such securities.
(e) No Governmental Review. The Subscriber understands that no
United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental
agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the
Securities, or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Securities,
nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of
the Securities.
(f) No Broker Commissions or Finder Fees. To the best of its
knowledge, the Subscriber has taken no action which would give rise to any claim
by any person for brokerage commissions, finders' fees or the like relating to

companies in the Company's line of business, in amounts sufficient to prevent
the Company from becoming a co-insurer and not in any event less than 100% of
the insurable value of the property insured; and the Company will maintain, with
financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance against other hazards and
risks and liability to persons and property to the extent and in the manner
customary for companies in similar businesses similarly situated and to the
extent available on commercially reasonable terms.
(i) Books and Records. The Company will keep true records and books
of account in which full, true and correct entries will be made of all dealings
or transactions in relation to its business and affairs in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis.
(j) Governmental Authorities. The Company shall duly observe and
conform in all material respects to all valid requirements of governmental
authorities relating to the conduct of its business or to its properties or
assets.
(k) Intellectual Property. The Company shall maintain in full force
and effect its corporate existence, rights and franchises and all licenses and
other rights to use intellectual property owned or possessed by it and
reasonably deemed to be necessary to the conduct of its business.
10
(l) Properties. The Company will keep its properties in good repair,
working order and condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and from time to
time make all needful and proper repairs, renewals, replacements, additions and
improvements thereto; and the Company will at all times comply with each
provision of all leases to which it is a party or under which it occupies
property if the breach of such provision could reasonably be expected to have a
material adverse effect.
(m) Confidentiality. The Company agrees that it will not disclose,
and will not include in any public announcement, the name of any Subscriber,
unless expressly agreed to by such Subscriber or unless and until such
disclosure is required by law or applicable regulation, and then only to the
extent of such requirement.
(n) The Company and Subscriber agree that until the Company either
obtains shareholder approval of the issuance of the Securities, or an exemption
from Amex's corporate governance rules as they may apply to the Securities, and
an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to Subscriber that Amex's corporate
governance rules do not conflict with nor may result in a delisting of the
Company's common stock from the Amex ("the Approval") upon the conversion of the
Notes, each Subscriber may not receive more than the number of common shares
designated on the Signature Page hereto ("Section 7 Shares"). The Company
represents that this number of Company Shares together with the aggregate of
such amounts designated for all investors in the Initial Offering is not greater
than 19.9% of the shares of Company's common stock outstanding on the Closing
Date. The Company covenants to obtain the Approval, if required, pursuant to the
Amex's corporate governance rules to allow conversion of all the Notes and
interest thereon and exercise of the Warrants. The Company further covenants to
file the preliminary proxy statement relating to the Approval with the
Commission on or before thirty days after the Approval becomes necessary ("Proxy
Filing Date"). The Company further covenants to obtain the Approval no later
than one hundred and twenty (120) days after the Proxy Filing Date ("Approval
Date"). The Company's failure to (i) file the proxy on or before the Proxy
Filing Date; or (ii) the Company's failure to obtain the Approval on or before
the Approval Date (each being an "Approval Default") shall be deemed an Event of
Default under the Note, but only to the extent the Notes and interest thereon
that may not be converted in compliance with Amex's corporate governance rules,
due to the Company's failure to obtain the Approval. Anything to the contrary in
this Section 7(n) notwithstanding, there shall be no limitation on the amount of
Notes that may be converted by the Subscriber and the amount of Company Shares
that may be issued upon conversion of the Notes provided the Subscriber elects a
Conversion Price (as defined in the Note) equal to the closing price of the
Common Stock on the Closing Date. At any meeting at which the Company's
shareholders will vote on the Approval, Company Shares issued upon conversion of
the Notes may be counted for the purpose of obtaining a quorum but may not be
voted on the Approval resolution.
8. Covenants of the Company and Subscriber Regarding
Indemnification.
8.1 Company Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify, hold
harmless, reimburse and defend Subscriber, Subscriber's officers, directors,
agents, affiliates, control persons, and principal shareholders, against any
claim, cost, expense, liability, obligation, loss or damage (including
reasonable legal fees) of any nature, incurred by or imposed upon Subscriber or
any such person which results, arises out of or is based upon (i) any material
misrepresentation by Company or breach of any warranty by Company in this
Agreement or in any Exhibits or Schedules attached hereto, or other agreement
delivered pursuant hereto; or (ii) after any applicable notice and/or cure
periods, any breach or default in performance by the Company of any covenant or
undertaking to be performed by the Company hereunder, or any other agreement
entered into by the Company and Subscribers relating hereto.
11
8.2 Subscriber Indemnification. Subscriber agrees to indemnify, hold
harmless, reimburse and defend the Company and each of the Company's officers,
directors, agents, affiliates, control persons against any claim, cost, expense,
liability, obligation, loss or damage (including reasonable legal fees) of any
nature, incurred by or imposed upon the Company or any such person which
results, arises out of or is based upon (i) any material misrepresentation by
Subscriber in this Agreement or in any Exhibits or Schedules attached hereto, or
other agreement delivered pursuant hereto; or (ii) after any applicable notice
and/or cure periods, any breach or default in performance by Subscriber of any
covenant or undertaking to be performed by Subscriber hereunder, or any other
agreement entered into by the Company and Subscribers relating hereto.
8.3 Procedures. The procedures and limitations set forth in Section
10.6 shall apply to the indemnifications set forth in Sections 8.1 and 8.2
above.
9. Conversion of Note.
9.1 Mechanics of Conversion.
(a) Upon the conversion of the Note or part thereof ("Conversion"),
the Company shall, at its own cost and expense, take all necessary action
(including the issuance of an opinion of counsel) to assure that the Company's
transfer agent shall issue stock certificates in the name of Subscriber (or its
nominee) or such other persons as designated by Subscriber and in such
denominations to be specified at Conversion representing the number of shares of
common stock issuable upon such Conversion. The Company warrants that no
instructions other than these instructions have been or will be given to the
transfer agent of the Company's Common Stock and that the Company Shares will be
unlegended, free-trading, and freely transferable, and will not contain a legend
restricting the resale or transferability of the Company Shares provided the
Company Shares are being sold pursuant to an effective registration statement
covering the Shares to be sold or are otherwise exempt from registration when
sold and, if applicable, Subscriber complies with prospectus delivery
requirements.
(b) Subscriber will give notice of its decision to exercise its
right to convert the Note or part thereof by telecopying an executed and
completed Notice of Conversion (a form of which is annexed to Exhibit A hereto)
to the Company via confirmed telecopier transmission. The Subscriber will not be
required to surrender the Note until the Note has been fully converted or
satisfied. Each date on which a Notice of Conversion is telecopied to the
Company in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be deemed a Conversion
Date. The Company will itself or cause its transfer agent to transmit the
Company's Common Stock certificates representing the Company Shares issuable
upon conversion of the Note to the Subscriber via express courier for receipt by
such Subscriber within five (5) business days after receipt by the Company of
the Notice of Conversion (the "Delivery Date"). In the event the Company Shares
are DTC eligible or otherwise electronically transferable, then delivery of the
Company Shares must be made by electronic transfer provided request for such
electronic transfer has been made by the Subscriber. A Note representing the
balance of the Note not so converted will be provided to the Subscriber, if
requested by Subscriber provided an original Note is delivered to the Company.
To the extent that a Subscriber elects not to surrender a Note for reissuance
upon partial payment or Conversion, the Subscriber hereby indemnifies the
Company against any and all loss or damage attributable to such non-surrender
arising from a third-party claim in an amount in excess of the actual amount
then due under the Note.
12
(c) The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the
Company Shares in the form required pursuant to Section 9 hereof, or the
Mandatory Redemption Amount described in Section 9.2 hereof, beyond the Delivery
Date or Mandatory Redemption Payment Date (as hereinafter defined) could result
in economic loss to the Subscriber. As compensation to the Subscriber for such
loss, the Company agrees to pay late payments to the Subscriber for late
issuance of Company Shares in the form required pursuant to Section 9 hereof
upon Conversion or late payment of the Mandatory Redemption Amount, in the
amount of $100 per business day after the Delivery Date or Mandatory Redemption
Payment Date, as the case may be, for each $10,000 of Note principal amount
being converted or redeemed. The Company shall pay any payments incurred under
this Section 9 in immediately available funds upon demand. Furthermore, in
addition to any other remedies which may be available to the Subscriber, in the
event that the Company fails for any reason to effect delivery of the Company
Shares by the Delivery Date or make payment by the Mandatory Redemption Payment
Date, the Subscriber will be entitled to revoke all or part of the relevant
Notice of Conversion or rescind all or part of the notice of Mandatory
Redemption by delivery of a notice to such effect to the Company whereupon the
Company and the Subscriber shall each be restored to their respective positions
immediately prior to the delivery of such notice, except that late payment
charges described above shall be payable through the date notice of revocation
or rescission is given to the Company.
(d) Nothing contained herein or in any document referred to herein
or delivered in connection herewith shall be deemed to establish or require the
payment of a rate of interest or other charges in excess of the maximum
permitted by applicable law. In the event that the rate of interest or dividends
required to be paid or other charges hereunder exceed the maximum permitted by
such law, any payments in excess of such maximum shall be credited against
amounts owed by the Company to the Subscriber and thus refunded to the Company.
9.2. Mandatory Redemption at Subscriber's Election. In the event the
Company is prohibited from issuing Company Shares, or fails to timely deliver
Company Shares on a Delivery Date, or upon the occurrence of any other Event of
Default (as defined in the Note) or for any reason other than pursuant to the
limitations set forth in Section 9.3 hereof, then at the Subscriber's election,
the Company must pay to the Subscriber ten (10) business days after request by
the Subscriber or on the Delivery Date (if requested by the Subscriber) a sum of
money determined by (i) multiplying up to the outstanding principal amount of
the Note designated by the Subscriber by 130%, plus accrued interest on the
outstanding principal amount of the Note, or (ii) multiplying the number of
Shares otherwise deliverable upon conversion of an amount of Note principal
designated by the Subscriber (with the date of giving of such designation being
a Deemed Conversion Date) at the then Conversion Price that would be in effect
on the Deemed Conversion Date by the highest closing price of the Common Stock
on the principal market from the Deemed Conversion Date until the day prior to
the receipt by the Subscriber of the Mandatory Redemption Payment, whichever is
greater, together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon ("Mandatory
Redemption Payment"). The Mandatory Redemption Payment must be received by the
Subscriber on the same date as the Company Shares otherwise deliverable or
within ten (10) business days after request, whichever is sooner ("Mandatory
Redemption Payment Date"). Upon receipt of the Mandatory Redemption Payment, the
corresponding Note principal and interest will be deemed paid and no longer
outstanding.
9.3. Maximum Conversion. The Subscriber shall not be entitled to
convert on a Conversion Date that amount of the Note 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 Subscriber and its
affiliates on a Conversion Date, and (ii) 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 on a Conversion Date, which would result in
beneficial ownership by the Subscriber and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of
the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company 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 Subscriber shall not be limited to aggregate
conversions of only 4.99% and aggregate conversion by the Subscriber may exceed
4.99%. The Subscriber shall have the authority and obligation to determine
whether the restriction contained in this Section 9.3 will limit any conversion
hereunder and to the extent that the Subscriber 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
Subscriber. The Subscriber may void the conversion limitation described in this
Section 9.3 upon 75 days prior written notice to the Company. The Subscriber may
allocate which of the equity of the Company deemed beneficially owned by the
Subscriber shall be included in the 4.99% amount described above and which shall
be allocated to the excess above 4.99%.
13
9.4. Injunction - Posting of Bond. In the event a Subscriber shall
elect to convert a Note or part thereof, the Company may not refuse conversion
based on any claim that such Subscriber or any one associated or affiliated with
such Subscriber has been engaged in any violation of law, or for any other
reason, unless, an injunction from a court, on notice, restraining and or
enjoining conversion of all or part of said Note shall have been sought and
obtained and the Company posts a surety bond for the benefit of such Subscriber
in the amount of 130% of the amount of the Note, which is subject to the
injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of
arbitration/litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable
to such Subscriber to the extent Subscriber obtains judgment.
9.5. Buy-In. In addition to any other rights available to the
Subscriber, if the Company fails to deliver the Company Shares to the Subscriber
by the Delivery Date and if ten (10) days after the Delivery Date the Subscriber
or a broker on behalf of the Subscriber, purchases (in an open market
transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a
sale by such Subscriber of the Company Shares which the Subscriber anticipated
receiving upon such conversion (a "Buy-In"), then the Company shall pay in cash
to the Subscriber (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by the
Subscriber) the amount by which (A) the Subscriber's total purchase price
(including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so
purchased exceeds (B) the aggregate principal and/or interest amount of the Note
for which such conversion was not timely honored, together with interest thereon
at a rate of 15% per annum, accruing until such amount and any accrued interest
thereon is paid in full (which amount shall be paid as liquidated damages and
not as a penalty). For example, if the Subscriber purchases shares of Common
Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to
an attempted conversion of $10,000 of note principal and/or interest, the
Company shall be required to pay the Subscriber $1,000, plus interest. The
Subscriber shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts
payable to the Subscriber in respect of the Buy-In.
9.6 Adjustments. The Conversion Price and amount of Company Shares
issuable upon Conversion of the Note shall be subject to equitable and pro-rata
adjustment to offset the effect of stock splits, stock dividends and pro rata
distributions of property or equity interests to the Company's shareholders.
9.7. Optional Redemption at Company's Election.
(a) Subject to the Optional Conversion Conditions set forth in this
Section 9.7(a), the Company will have the option of redeeming all or any portion
of the outstanding Notes ("Optional Redemption") by paying to the Subscriber a
sum of money equal to 130% of the principal amount of the Note to be redeemed
("Premium") together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon and any and all
other sums due, accrued or payable to the Subscriber arising under this
Subscription Agreement relating to the Note, the Note or any other document
delivered herewith ("Redemption Amount") outstanding on the day notice of
redemption ("Notice of Redemption) is given to a Subscriber ("Redemption Date").
The Subscriber may elect within five (5) business days after receipt of a Notice
of Redemption to give the Company Notice of Conversion in connection with some
or all of the Note principal and interest which was the subject of the Notice of
Redemption provided the Conversion Price elected by the Subscriber is the
Maximum Base Price set forth in Section 2.1(b)(i) of the Note. A Notice of
Redemption must be accompanied by a certificate signed by the chief executive
officer or chief financial officer of the Company stating that the Company has
on deposit and segregated ready funds equal to the Redemption Amount. The
Redemption Amount must be paid in good funds to the Subscriber no later than the
tenth (10th) business day after the Redemption Date ("Optional Redemption
Payment Date"). On the Optional Redemption Payment Date, the Company must
deliver a common stock purchase warrant representing the right to purchase one
share of Common Stock for each five dollar ($5.00) of Redemption Amount
("Redemption Warrant"). The Redemption Warrant will be identical to the Warrant
except that the Purchase Price (as defined in the Warrant) shall be 120% of the
closing price of the Common Stock on the Redemption Date. The Redemption Warrant
will be exercisable for three years from the Optional Redemption Payment Date.
In the event the Company fails to pay the Redemption Amount by the Optional
Redemption Payment Date, then the Redemption Notice will be null and void and
the Company will thereafter have no further right to effect an Optional
Redemption, and at the Subscription's election, the Redemption Amount will be
deemed a Mandatory Redemption Payment and the Optional Redemption Payment Date
will be deemed a Mandatory Redemption Payment Date. Such failure will also be
deemed an Event of Default under the Notes. A Notice of Redemption may be given
by the Company pursuant to this Section 9.7(a), provided (i) no Event of
Default, as described in the Notes shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii)
the Company Shares issuable upon conversion of the entire outstanding Note
principal are included for unrestricted resale in a registration statement
effective as of the Redemption Date, and (iii) the Conversion Price for the ten
(10) trading days prior to a Redemption Date is less than $1.50 (the "Optional
Conversion Conditions").
14
(b) If no Event of Default (as defined in the Note) has occurred and
is continuing, then until ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, the
Company may elect at its option to exercise the Optional Redemption Rights
described in Section 9.7(a) except that (i) the Premium shall be 140%, (ii) no
other Optional Conversion Conditions shall be applicable, (iii) the Subscriber
shall not have the right to elect to convert any portion of the Note into Common
Stock for which a Conversion Notice has not already been given, and (iv) the
Subscriber will not receive any Redemption Warrants.
9.8. Redemption. The Company may not redeem or call the Note without
the consent of the holder of the Securities except as otherwise described in
Section 9.7 above.
9.9. Elimination of Floor Price. Subject to the provisions of
Section 9.10 below, the $1.50 per share Floor Price limitation on the Conversion
Price described in Section 2.1(b)(ii) of the Note shall not apply in the event
that either: (i) the registration statement described in Section 10.1(c) shall
not have been declared effective by the SEC on or before one hundred and eighty
(180) days after the Closing Date, or (ii) there shall occur a Projection
Default as described in Section 9.10.
9.10. Projection Default. Annexed hereto as Schedule 9.10 is a
schedule of the projections of the consolidated net income after taxes expressed
in Canadian dollars (the "Projected Net Income") of the Company and its
subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, for the fiscal quarters ending November
30, 2001, February 28, 2002, May 31, 2002, and August 31, 2002 (each a "Subject
Fiscal Quarter"). In the event the actual consolidated net income after taxes
expressed in Canadian dollars (the "Actual Net Income") of the Company and its
subsidiaries on a consolidated basis is not at least ninety (90%) percent of the
Projected Net Income for any such Subject Fiscal Quarter, then a "Projection
Default" hereunder shall be deemed to have occurred. Following the occurrence of
a Projection Default, Company may elect to exercise the Optional Redemption
described in Section 9.7(a) and on the same terms as set forth in said Section
9.7(a); provided that in such event the Company must pay the full Redemption
Amount to the Subscriber within thirty (30) days from the Income Notification
Date described below following such Projection Default. In the event that the
Company shall not timely pay such full Redemption Amount, the $1.50 per share
Floor Price limitation on Conversion set forth in Section 2.1(b)(ii) of the Note
shall no longer be applicable . The Company or the Company's accountants Xxxxx &
Partners or another recognized accounting firm shall notify the Subscriber of
the actual Net Income (in Canadian dollars) as reconciled with United States
dollars and United States generally accepted accounting principles ("the Net
Income Reconciliation"), as reported on the Company's forms 6-K or 20-F to be
filed with the Commission for each such Subject Fiscal Quarter. Such Net Income
Reconciliation shall be delivered to the Subscriber within five days after the
required filing date of such Form 6-F or Form 20-F for the applicable Subject
Fiscal Quarter, including any timely permissible notifications of late filing
but in any case not later than sixty (60) days after the end of each Subject
Fiscal Quarter (the "Income Notification Date"). If, for any reason, the Net
Income Reconciliation shall not be delivered to the Subscriber by such Income
Notification Date, the Company must deliver such Net Income Reconciliation
within five (5) days following written notice from the Subscriber or its
representative; failing which the $1.50 per share Floor Price limitation on
Conversion set forth in Section 2.1(b)(ii) of the Note shall no longer be
applicable, irrespective of whether or not there has been a Projection Default.
The Income Notification Date shall be accelerated to any date on which the
Subscriber notifies the Company that, based on the Company's filings with the
Commission or press releases issued by the Company a Projection Default has
occurred.
15
10. Registration Rights.
10.1. Registration Rights Granted. The Company hereby grants the
following registration rights to holders of the Securities.
(a) On one occasion, for a period commencing 121 days after the
Closing Date, but not later than three years after the Closing Date ("Request
Date"), the Company, upon a written request therefor from any record holder or
holders of more than 50% of the aggregate of the Company's Shares actually
issued and issuable upon Conversion of the Notes issued in the Initial Offering
(the Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Notes or issuable by
virtue of ownership of the Notes and issuable upon exercise of the Warrants,
being the "Registrable Securities"), shall prepare and file with the Commission
a registration statement under the Act covering the Registrable Securities which
are the subject of such request, unless such Registrable Securities are the
subject of an effective registration statement or included for registration in a
pending registration statement. In addition, upon the receipt of such request,
the Company shall promptly give written notice to all other record holders of
the Registrable Securities that such registration statement is to be filed and
shall include in such registration statement Registrable Securities for which it
has received written requests within 10 days after the Company gives such
written notice. Such other requesting record holders shall be deemed to have
exercised their demand registration right under this Section 10.1(a). As a
condition precedent to the inclusion of Registrable Securities, the holder
thereof shall provide the Company with such information as the Company
reasonably requests. The obligation of the Company under this Section 10.1(a)
shall be limited to one registration statement.
(b) If the Company at any time proposes to register any of its
securities under the Act for sale to the public, whether for its own account or
for the account of other security holders or both, except with respect to
registration statements on Forms X-0, X-0 or another form not available for
registering the Registrable Securities for sale to the public, provided the
Registrable Securities are not otherwise registered for resale by the Subscriber
or Holder pursuant to an effective registration statement, each such time it
will give at least 25 days' prior written notice to the record holder of the
Registrable Securities of its intention so to do. Upon the written request of
the holder, received by the Company within 15 days after the giving of any such
notice by the Company, to register any of the Registrable Securities, the
Company will cause such Registrable Securities as to which registration shall
have been so requested to be included with the securities to be covered by the
registration statement proposed to be filed by the Company, all to the extent
required to permit the sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities
so registered by the holder of such Registrable Securities (the "Seller"). In
the event that any registration pursuant to this Section 10.1(b) shall be, in
whole or in part, an underwritten public offering of common stock of the
Company, the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be included in such
an underwriting may be reduced by the managing underwriter if and to the extent
that the Company and the underwriter shall reasonably be of the opinion that
such inclusion would adversely affect the marketing of the securities to be sold
by the Company therein; provided, however, that the Company shall notify the
Seller in writing of any such reduction. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions, or Section 10.4 hereof, the Company may withdraw or delay or suffer
a delay of any registration statement referred to in this Section 10.1(b)
without thereby incurring any liability to the Seller.
16
(c) In addition to the registration rights set forth in Sections
10.1(a) and 10.1(b) above, the Company shall file with the Commission not later
than thirty (30) days after the Closing Date (the "Filing Date"), and use its
reasonable commercial efforts to cause to be declared effective a Form F-1
registration statement (or such other form that it is eligible to use) in order
to register the Registrable Securities (as defined herein) for resale and
distribution under the 1933 Act. The registration statement described in this
paragraph must be declared effective by the Commission by one hundred and twenty
days (120) of the Closing Date (the "Effective Date"). The Company will register
not less than a number of shares of Common Stock in the aforedescribed
registration statement that is equal to 200% of the Company Shares issuable at
the Conversion Price that would be in effect on the Closing Date or the date of
filing of such registration statement (employing the Conversion Price which
would result in the greater number of Shares), assuming the conversion of 100%
of the Notes and one share of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. The Registrable Securities shall be
reserved and set aside exclusively for the benefit of the Subscriber, and not
issued, employed or reserved for anyone other than the Subscriber. Such
registration statement will immediately be amended or additional registration
statements will be immediately filed by the Company as necessary to register
additional Company Shares to allow the public resale of all Common Stock
included in and issuable by virtue of the Registrable Securities. No securities
of the Company other than the Registrable Securities will be included in the
registration statement described in this Section 10.1(c) except as described on
Schedule 10.1.
10.2. Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is
required by the provisions hereof to effect the registration of any shares of
Registrable Securities under the 1933 Act, the Company will, as expeditiously as
possible:
(a) prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement
with respect to such securities and use its best efforts to cause such
registration statement to become and remain effective for the period of the
distribution contemplated thereby (determined as herein provided), and promptly
provide to the holders of Registrable Securities ("Sellers") copies of all
filings and Commission letters of comment;
(b) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection
therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective
until the latest of: (i) twenty-four months after the latest Maturity Date of a
Note; (ii) until twelve months after all the Company Shares are eligible for
resale pursuant to Rule 144(k) of the 1933 Act; or (iii) until such registration
statement has been effective for a period of not less than 365 days, and comply
with the provisions of the Act with respect to the disposition of all of the
Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement in accordance with
the Seller's intended method of disposition set forth in such registration
statement for such period;
17
(c) furnish to the Seller, such number of copies of the registration
statement and the prospectus included therein (including each preliminary
prospectus) as such persons reasonably may request in order to facilitate the
public sale or their disposition of the securities covered by such registration
statement;
(d) use its best efforts to register or qualify the Seller's
Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement under the
securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions as the Seller, provided,
however, that the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify
generally to transact business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction
where it is not so qualified or to consent to general service of process in any
such jurisdiction;
(e) list the Registrable Securities covered by such registration
statement with any securities exchange on which the Common Stock of the Company
is then listed;
(f) immediately notify the Seller when a prospectus relating thereto
is required to be delivered under the Act, of the happening of any event of
which the Company has knowledge as a result of which the prospectus contained in
such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of
a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the
circumstances then existing;
(g) make available for inspection by the Seller, and any attorney,
accountant or other agent retained by the Seller or underwriter, all publicly
available, non-confidential financial and other records, pertinent corporate
documents and properties of the Company, and cause the Company's officers,
directors and employees to supply all publicly available, non-confidential
information reasonably requested by the seller, attorney, accountant or agent in
connection with such registration statement.
10.3. Provision of Documents. At the request of the Seller, provided
a demand for registration has been made pursuant to Section 10.1(a) or a request
for registration has been made pursuant to Section 10.1(b), the Registrable
Securities will be included in a registration statement filed pursuant to this
Section 10. In connection with each registration hereunder, the Seller will
furnish to the Company in writing such information and representation letters
with respect to itself and the proposed distribution by it as reasonably shall
be necessary in order to assure compliance with federal and applicable state
securities laws. In connection with each registration pursuant to Section
10.1(a) or 10.1(b) covering an underwritten public offering, the Company and the
Seller agree to enter into a written agreement with the managing underwriter in
such form and containing such provisions as are customary in the securities
business for such an arrangement between such underwriter and companies of the
Company's size and investment stature.
10.4. Non-Registration Events. The Company and the Subscriber agree
that the Seller will suffer damages if any registration statement required under
Section 10.1(a) or 10.1(b) above is not filed within 30 days after written
request by the Holder and not declared effective by the Commission within 90
days after such request [or the Filing Date and Effective Date, respectively, in
reference to the Registration Statement on Form F-1 or such other form described
in Section 10.1(c)], and maintained in the manner and within the time periods
contemplated by Section 10 hereof, and it would not be feasible to ascertain the
extent of such damages with precision. Accordingly, if (i) the Registration
Statement described in Sections 10.1(a) or 10.1(b) is not filed within 30 days
of such written request, or is not declared effective by the Commission on or
prior to the date that is 90 days after such request, or (ii) the registration
statement on Form F-1 or such other form described in Section 10.1(c) is not
filed on or before the Filing Date or not declared effective on or before the
sooner of the Effective Date, or within five business days of receipt by the
Company of a written or oral communication from the Commission that the
registration statement described in Section 10.1(c) will not be reviewed, or
(iii) any registration statement described in Sections 10.1(a), 10.1(b) or
10.1(c) is filed and declared effective but shall thereafter cease to be
effective (without being succeeded immediately by an additional registration
statement filed and declared effective) for a period of time which shall exceed
30 days in the aggregate per year but not more than 20 consecutive calendar days
("year" being defined as a period of 365 days commencing on the date the
Registration Statement is declared effective) (each such event referred to in
clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this Section 10.4 is referred to herein as a
"Non-Registration Event"), then, for so long as such Non-Registration Event
shall continue, the Company shall pay, at the Subscriber's option, in cash or
stock at the applicable Conversion Price, as Liquidated Damages to each holder
of any Registrable Securities an amount equal to two (2%) percent per month or
pro rata part thereof for each month or part thereof thereafter during the
pendency of such Non-Registration Event, of the principal of the Notes issued in
the Initial Offering and principal and interest of the Notes converted into
Company Shares, then owned of record by such holder or issuable as of or
subsequent to the occurrence of such Non-Registration Event. Payments to be made
pursuant to this Section 10.4 shall be due and payable within ten (10) business
days after demand in immediately available funds. In the event a Mandatory
Redemption Payment is demanded from the Company by the Holder pursuant to
Section 9.2 of this Subscription Agreement, then the Liquidated Damages
described in this Section 10.4 shall no longer accrue on the portion of the
Purchase Price underlying the Mandatory Redemption Payment, from and after the
date the Holder receives the Mandatory Redemption Payment. It shall also be
deemed a Non-Registration Event if at any time a Note is outstanding, there is
less than 125% of the amount of Common Shares necessary to allow full conversion
of such Note at the then applicable Conversion Price registered for unrestricted
resale in an effective registration statement.

10.5. Expenses. All expenses incurred by the Company in complying
with Section 10, including, without limitation, all registration and filing
fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel and independent
public accountants for the Company, fees and expenses (including reasonable
counsel fees) incurred in connection with complying with state securities or
"blue sky" laws, fees of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.,
transfer taxes, fees of transfer agents and registrars, and costs of insurance
are called "Registration Expenses". All underwriting discounts and selling
commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities, including any fees
and disbursements of any special counsel to the Seller, are called "Selling
Expenses". The Seller shall pay the fees of its own additional counsel, if any.
The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with the
registration statement under Section 10. All Selling Expenses in connection with
each registration statement under Section 10 shall be borne by the Seller and
may be apportioned among the Sellers in proportion to the number of shares sold
by the Seller relative to the number of shares sold under such registration
statement or as all Sellers thereunder may agree.
10.6. Indemnification and Contribution.
(a) In the event of a registration of any Registrable Securities
under the Act pursuant to Section 10, the Company will indemnify and hold
harmless the Seller, each officer of the Seller, each director of the Seller,
each underwriter of such Registrable Securities thereunder and each other
person, if any, who controls such Seller or underwriter within the meaning of
the 1933 Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or
several, to which the Seller, or such underwriter or controlling person may
become subject under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based
upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact
contained in any registration statement under which such Registrable Securities
was registered under the Act pursuant to Section 10, any preliminary prospectus
or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof,
or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state
therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances when made, and
will subject to the provisions of Section 10.6(c) reimburse the Seller, each
such underwriter and each such controlling person for any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or
defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be liable to the Seller to the extent that any such
damages arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or omission made in
any preliminary prospectus if (i) the Seller failed to send or deliver a copy of
the final prospectus delivered by the Company to the Seller with or prior to the
delivery of written confirmation of the sale by the Seller to the person
asserting the claim from which such damages arise, (ii) the final prospectus
would have corrected such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or such
omission or alleged omission, or (iii) to the extent that any such loss, claim,
damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity
with information furnished by any such Seller, or any such controlling person in
writing specifically for use in such registration statement or prospectus.
19
(b) In the event of a registration of any of the Registrable
Securities under the Act pursuant to Section 10, the Seller will indemnify and
hold harmless the Company, and each person, if any, who controls the Company
within the meaning of the Act, each officer of the Company who signs the
registration statement, each director of the Company, each underwriter and each
person who controls any underwriter within the meaning of the Act, against all
losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company
or such officer, director, underwriter or controlling person may become subject
under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in
the registration statement under which such Registrable Securities were
registered under the Act pursuant to Section 10, any preliminary prospectus or
final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or
arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company and each such
officer, director, underwriter and controlling person for any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or
defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, provided, however,
that the Seller will be liable hereunder in any such case if and only to the
extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based
upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with information pertaining to
such Seller, as such, furnished in writing to the Company by such Seller
specifically for use in such registration statement or prospectus, and provided,
further, however, that the liability of the Seller hereunder shall be limited to
the gross proceeds received by the Seller from the sale of Registrable
Securities covered by such registration statement.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of
notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a
claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party hereunder,
notify the indemnifying party in writing thereof, but the omission so to notify
the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have
to such indemnified party other than under this Section 10.6(c) and shall only
relieve it from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party under
this Section 10.6(c), except and only if and to the extent the indemnifying
party is prejudiced by such omission. In case any such action shall be brought
against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the
commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in
and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof
with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party, and, after notice from the
indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume and
undertake the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to
such indemnified party under this Section 10.6(c) for any legal expenses
subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense
thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation and of liaison with counsel
so selected, provided, however, that, if the defendants in any such action
include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the
indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be reasonable
defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those
available to the indemnifying party or if the interests of the indemnified party
reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the indemnifying
party, the indemnified parties shall have the right to select one separate
counsel and to assume such legal defenses and otherwise to participate in the
defense of such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees of such separate
counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the
indemnifying party as incurred.
20
(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in the
event of joint liability under the Act in any case in which either (i) the
Seller, or any controlling person of the Seller, makes a claim for
indemnification pursuant to this Section 10.6 but it is judicially determined
(by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction
and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal)
that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the
fact that this Section 10.6 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii)
contribution under the Act may be required on the part of the Seller or
controlling person of the Seller in circumstances for which indemnification is
provided under this Section 10.6; then, and in each such case, the Company and
the Seller will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or
liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in
such proportion so that the Seller is responsible only for the portion
represented by the percentage that the public offering price of its securities
offered by the registration statement bears to the public offering price of all
securities offered by such registration statement, provided, however, that, in
any such case, (y) the Seller will not be required to contribute any amount in
excess of the public offering price of all such securities offered by it
pursuant to such registration statement; and (z) no person or entity guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 10(f) of the Act)
will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of
such fraudulent misrepresentation.
11. Favored Nations Provision. In the event that at any time a Note
is outstanding, the Company shall for any reason (other than in connection with
employee stock options or as full or partial consideration in connection with
any merger, consolidation or purchase of the securities or assets of any
corporation or other entity (an "Acquisition") issue any Common Stock or
securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common Stock to any
person, firm or corporation at price per share or conversion or exercise price
per share which shall be lower than the Conversion Price of the Common Shares
issuable upon conversion of the Note, then and in such event the per share
Conversion Price set forth in the Note shall be automatically reduced to such
lower per share purchase price, exercise price or conversion price, as the case
may be.
12. Security Interest. The Subscriber will be granted a security
interest in certain assets of the Company to be memorialized in a General
Security Agreement. A shareholder of the Company ("Shareholder") will also grant
the Subscriber a security interest in 125,000 shares of the Company's Common
Stock. The security interest granted by the Shareholder will be memorialized in
a Stock Pledge Agreement. The Company and Shareholder will execute such other
agreements, documents and forms UCC-1 to be filed at the Company's expense with
such jurisdictions, states and counties designated by the Subscribers. The
Company will also execute all such documents reasonably necessary in the opinion
of Subscriber to memorialize and further protect the security interest described
herein. A form of General Security Agreement is annexed hereto as Exhibit D. A
form of Stock Pledge Agreement is annexed hereto as Exhibit E.
