Section 4.3. Notice of Certain Events. The Company shall on a
continuing basis (i) advise each of the Purchasers promptly after obtaining
knowledge thereof, and, if requested by any of the Purchasers, confirm such
advice in writing, of (A) the issuance by any State securities commission of any
stop order suspending the qualification or exemption from qualification of the
Debentures, the Warrants or the Common Stock for offering or sale in any
jurisdiction, or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose by any State
securities commission or other regulatory authority, or (B) any event that makes
any statement of a material fact made in the Disclosure Documents untrue or that
requires the making of any additions to or changes in the Disclosure Documents
in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
which they are made, not misleading, (ii) use its best efforts to prevent the
issuance of any stop order or order suspending the qualification or exemption
from qualification of the Debentures, the Warrants or the Common Stock under any
State securities or Blue Sky laws, and (iii) if at any time any State securities
commission or other regulatory authority shall issue an order suspending the
qualification or exemption from qualification of the Debentures, the Warrants or
the Common Stock under any such laws, use its best efforts to obtain the
withdrawal or lifting of such order at the earliest possible time.
Section 4.4. Copies and Use of Disclosure Documents. The Company shall
furnish each of the Purchasers, without charge, as many copies of the Disclosure
Documents, and any amendments or supplements thereto, as each of the Purchasers
may reasonably request. The Company consents to the use of the Disclosure
Documents, and any amendments and supplements thereto, by each of the Purchasers
in connection with resales of the Debentures, the Warrants, Underlying Shares or
the Warrant Shares other than pursuant to an effective registration statement.
Section 4.5. Modification to Disclosure Documents. If any event shall
occur as a result of which, in the reasonable judgment of the Company or any of
the Purchasers, it becomes necessary or advisable to amend or supplement the
Disclosure Documents in order to make the statements therein, in the light of
the circumstances at the time the Disclosure Documents were delivered to any of
the Purchasers, not misleading, or if it is necessary to amend or supplement the
Disclosure Documents to comply with applicable law, the Company shall promptly
prepare an appropriate amendment or supplement to the Disclosure Documents (in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to both the Purchasers and Company)
so that (i) as so amended or supplemented the Disclosure Documents will not
include an untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact
necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances existing at the time it is delivered to any of the Purchasers, not
misleading and (ii) the Disclosure Documents will comply with applicable law.
Section 4.6. [Reserved].
Section 4.7. Integration. The Company shall not and shall use its best
efforts to ensure that no Affiliate shall sell, offer for sale or solicit offers
to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section
2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the
Debentures, the Warrants, Underlying Shares, or the Warrant Shares in a manner
that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the
Debentures and the Warrants to the Purchasers.
Section 4.8. Furnishing of Rule 144A Materials. The Company shall, for
so long as any of the Debentures, the Warrants, Underlying Shares or Warrant
Shares remain outstanding and during any period in which it is not subject to
Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, make available to any registered holder
of Debentures, the Warrants, Underlying Shares or Warrant Shares in connection
with any sale thereof and any prospective purchaser of such Debentures,
Warrants, Underlying Shares or Warrant Shares from such Person, the following
information in accordance with Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act: a brief
statement of the nature of the business of the Company and the products and
services it offers and the Company's most recent audited balance sheet and
profit and loss and retained earnings statements, and similar audited financial
statements for such part of the two preceding fiscal years as the Company has
been in operation.
Section 4.9. Solicitation Materials. The Company shall not (i)
distribute any offering materials in connection with the offering and sale of
the Debentures, the Warrants, Underlying Shares or Warrant Shares other than the
Disclosure Documents and any amendments and supplements thereto prepared in
compliance herewith or (ii) solicit any offer to buy or sell the Debentures, the
Warrants, Underlying Shares or Warrant Shares by means of any form of general
solicitation or advertising.
Section 4.10. Subsequent Financial Statements. The Company shall
furnish to the Purchasers, promptly after they are filed with the Commission, a
copy of all financial statements for any period subsequent to the period covered
by the financial statements included in the Disclosure Documents until the
earlier of the full conversion of the Debentures or the Maturity Date of the
Debentures.
Section 4.11. Prohibition on Certain Actions. From the date hereof
through the Closing Date, the Company shall not and shall cause the Subsidiaries
not to, without the prior written consent of the Purchasers, (i) amend its
Articles of Incorporation, bylaws or other charter documents so as to adversely
affect any rights of the Purchasers; (ii) split, combine or reclassify its
outstanding capital stock; (iii) declare, authorize, set aside or pay any
dividend or other distribution with respect to the Common Stock; (iv) redeem,
repurchase or offer to repurchase or otherwise acquire shares of its Common
Stock; or (v) enter into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing.
Section 4.12. Listing of Common Stock. The Company shall use its best
efforts to maintain the quote for its Common Stock on the OTCBB (or listing on a
national securities exchange or market on which the Common Stock is listed)
during the period that the Debentures may be converted hereunder by the
Purchasers or the Warrants may be exercised, and shall provide to the Purchasers
evidence of such listing.
Section 4.13 Escrow. The Company and the Purchasers agree to enter
into, simultaneous with the execution of this Agreement, the escrow agreement
attached hereto and made part hereof as Exhibit E (the "Escrow Agreement").
Section 4.14. Conversion and Exercise Procedures and Maintenance of
Escrowed Shares for Conversions and Exercises. Exhibit D attached hereto and
made a part hereof sets forth the procedures with respect to the conversion of
the Debentures and the exercise of the Warrants, including the forms of Notice
of Conversion and Notice of Exercise to be provided upon conversion or exercise,
instructions as to the procedures for conversion or exercise, the form of legal
opinion, if necessary, that shall be rendered to the Company and such other
information and instructions as may be reasonably necessary to enable any of the
Purchasers to exercise its right of conversion or exercise smoothly and
expeditiously. The Company agrees that, at any time the conversion price of the
Debentures is such that the number of Debenture Escrow Shares is less than 200%
of the number of shares of Common Stock that would be needed to satisfy full
conversion of all of the Debentures given the then current conversion price (the
"Full Conversion Shares"), upon ten (10) Business Days written notice of such
circumstance to the Company by the Purchasers and/or Escrow Agent, it will issue
additional share certificates in the names of each of the Purchasers in
denominations of 10,000 shares, and deliver same to the Escrow Agent, such that
the new number of Debenture Escrow Shares is equal to 200% of the Full
Conversion Shares.
Section 4.15 Attorney-in-Fact. To effectuate the terms and provisions
of this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Debenture and the Warrants, the
Company hereby agrees to give a power of attorney as is evidenced by Exhibit F
attached hereto. All acts done under such power of attorney are hereby ratified
and approved and neither the Attorney-in-Fact nor any designee or agent thereof
shall be liable for any acts of commission or omission, for any error of
judgment or for any mistake of fact or law, as long as the Attorney-in-Fact is
operating within the scope of the power of attorney and this Agreement and its
exhibits. The power of attorney being coupled with an interest shall be
irrevocable while any amount of the Debenture remains unpaid, any amount of the
Warrants remain unexercised or any portion of this Agreement or the Escrow
Agreement remains unsatisfied. In addition, the Company shall give the
Attorney-in-Fact a corporate resolution executed by the Board of Directors of
the Company which authorizes future issuances of the Underlying Shares for the
Debentures, and which resolution states that it is irrevocable while any amount
of the Debenture remains unpaid, any amount of the Warrants remain unexercised
or any portion of this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement remains unsatisfied.
Section 4.16 Indemnification.
(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall,
notwithstanding termination of this Agreement and without limitation as to time,
indemnify and hold harmless GEM and each Purchaser, their respective officers,
directors, agents and employees of each of them, each Person who controls GEM or
each such Purchaser (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or
Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, agents and
employees of each such controlling Person, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, costs of preparation and
attorneys' fees) and expenses (collectively, "Losses"), as incurred, arising out
of or relating to a breach or breaches of any representation, warrant, covenant
or agreement by the Company under this Agreement, the other Transaction
Documents, the Debentures or the Warrants.
(b) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any Proceeding
shall be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder
(an "Indemnified Party"), such Indemnified Party promptly shall notify the
Person from whom indemnity is sought (the "Indemnifying Party") in writing, and
the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof, including the
employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the
payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof;
provided, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give such notice shall
not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations or liabilities pursuant to
this Agreement, except (and only) to the extent that it shall be finally
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not
subject to appeal or further review) that such failure shall have proximately
and materially adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.
An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate
counsel in any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but
the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such
Indemnified Party or Parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed to
pay such fees and expenses; or (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed
promptly to assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel
reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding; or (3)
the named parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties)
include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and such
Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest
is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party
and the Indemnifying Party (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies
the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at
the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the
right to assume the defense of the claim against the Indemnified Party but will
retain the right to control the overall Proceedings out of which the claim arose
and such counsel employed by the Indemnified Party shall be at the expense of
the Indemnifying Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any
settlement of any such Proceeding effected without its written consent, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No Indemnifying Party shall, without
the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any
pending Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is a party, unless
such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from
all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding.
All fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party to which the
Indemnified Party is entitled hereunder (including reasonable fees and expenses
to the extent incurred in connection with investigating or preparing to defend
such Proceeding in a manner not inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to
the Indemnified Party, as incurred, within ten (10) Business Days of written
notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party.
No right of indemnification under this Section 4.16 shall be
available as to a particular Indemnified Party if there is a non-appealable
final judicial determination that such Losses arise solely out of the negligence
or bad faith of such Indemnified Party in performing the obligations of such
Indemnified Party under this Agreement or a breach by such Indemnified Party of
its obligations under this Agreement.
(c) Contribution. If a claim for indemnification under Section
4.16(a) is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold such
Indemnified Party harmless for any Losses in respect of which this Section 4.16
would apply by its terms (other than by reason of exceptions provided in this
Section 4.16(c)), then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such
Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Indemnifying Party
on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other and the relative fault of
the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions or
omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified
Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether there was
a judicial determination that such Losses arise in part out of the negligence or
bad faith of the Indemnified Party in performing the obligations of such
Indemnified Party under this Agreement or the Indemnified Party's breach of its
obligations under this Agreement. The amount paid or payable by a party as a
result of any Losses shall be deemed to include any attorneys' or other fees or
expenses incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent
such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the
indemnification provided for in this Section was available to such party.
(d) Nonexclusive. The indemnity and contribution agreements
contained in this Section are in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying
Parties may have to the Indemnified Parties.
Section 4.17 [Reserved].
Section 4.18 Qualification of Common Stock and Related Matters. (a) The
Company shall (i) advise each of the Purchasers promptly after obtaining
knowledge thereof, and, if requested by any of the Purchasers, confirm such
advice in writing, of the issuance by any State securities commission of any
stop order suspending the qualification or exemption from qualification of the
Debentures, the Warrants, the Underlying Shares or the Warrant Shares for
offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation of any proceeding for
such purpose by any State securities commission or other regulatory authority,
or (ii) use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or order
suspending the qualification or exemption from qualification of the Debentures,
the Warrants, the Underlying Shares or Warrant Shares under any State securities
or Blue Sky laws, and (iii) if at any time any State securities commission or
other regulatory authority shall issue an order suspending the qualification or
exemption from qualification of the Debentures, the Warrants, the Underlying
Shares, or Warrant Shares under any such laws, use its best efforts to obtain
the withdrawal or lifting of such order at the earliest possible time.
(b) The Company shall furnish each of the Purchasers, without
charge, as many copies of the prospectus underlying the registration statement
contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement, and any amendments or
supplements thereto, as such Purchaser may reasonably request. The Company
consents to the use of such prospectus, and any amendments and supplements
thereto, by any of the Purchasers in connection with resales of the Debentures,
the Warrants, the Underlying Shares or Warrant Shares.
(c) In accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement
annexed hereto as Exhibit C, the Company shall qualify the Underlying Shares and
the Warrant Shares under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions
as any of the Purchasers may reasonably request and shall continue such
qualification at all times through the second anniversary of the last Closing
Date; provided, however, that neither the Company nor its Subsidiaries shall be
required in connection therewith to qualify as a foreign corporation where they
are not now so qualified or to take any action that would subject the Company to
general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so
subject or subject the Company to any material tax in any such jurisdiction
where it is not then so subject.
Section 4.19 Purchasers' Ownership of Common Stock. In addition to and
not in lieu of the limitations on conversion set forth in the Debentures, the
conversion and exercise rights of each of the Purchasers set forth in the
Debentures and the Warrants, as applicable, shall be limited, solely to the
extent required, from time to time, such that, unless each of the Purchasers
give written notice 75 days in advance to the Company of their intention to
exceed the Limitation on Conversions as defined herein, with respect to all or a
specified amount of the Debentures and the corresponding number of the
Underlying Shares, in no instance shall the maximum number of shares of Common
Stock which the Purchasers (singularly, together with any Persons who in the
determination of such Purchasers, together with such Purchasers, constitute a
group as defined in Rule 13d-5 of the Exchange Act) may receive in respect of
any conversion of the Debentures, or exercise of the Warrants, exceed, at any
one time, an amount equal to the remainder of (i) 4.99% of the then issued and
outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company following such conversion or
exercise minus (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company then
owned by any of the Purchasers (including any shares of Common Stock deemed
beneficially owned due to ownership of the Debentures and Warrants) (the
foregoing being herein referred to as the "Limitation on Conversion"); provided,
however, that the Limitation on Conversion shall not apply to any forced or
automatic conversion by the Company pursuant to Section 4(i) and Section 5 of
the Debentures and, provided, further, that if ten (10) Business Days have
elapsed since any of the Purchasers shall have declared an Event of Default (as
that term is defined in the Debenture) and the Company shall not have cured such
Event of Default, the provisions of this Section 4.19 shall be null and void
from and after such date. The Company shall, promptly upon its receipt of a
notice of conversion tendered by any of the Purchasers (or its sole designee)
under the Debentures, as applicable, and upon its receipt of a notice of
exercise under the terms of the Warrants, notify such Purchaser by telephone and
by facsimile of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date
and the number of Underlying Shares which would be issuable to such Purchaser
(or its sole designee, as the case may be) if the conversion requested in such
notice of conversion or exercise requested in such notice of exercise were
effected in full, whereupon, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth
in the Debentures or the Warrants, such Purchaser may within one (1) Business
Day of its receipt of the Company notice required by this Section 4.19 by
facsimile revoke such conversion or exercise to the extent (in whole or in part)
that it determines that such conversion or exercise would result in such
Purchaser owning shares of Common Stock in excess of the Limitation on
Conversion.
Section 4.20 Purchasers' Rights if Trading in Common Stock is
Suspended. In the event that at any time during the period when the Registration
Statement is to remain effective under the Securities Act in accordance with the
Registration Rights Agreement, trading in the shares of the Common Stock is
suspended (and not reinstated within five (5) Trading Days) on such stock
exchange or market upon which the Common Stock shall then be listed for trading
(other than as a result of the suspension of trading in securities on such
market generally or temporary suspensions pending the release of material
information), or the Common Stock is deleted from the OTCBB (and not reinstated
within five (5) Trading Days), then, at any of the Purchasers' option
exercisable by written notice to the Company, the Company shall redeem, as
applicable, all of the Debentures, Warrants, Underlying Shares and Warrant
Shares owned by such Purchaser at an aggregate purchase price equal to the sum
of:
(i) the product of (1) the average Per Share Market Value for
the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding (a) the day of such notice, (b)
the date of payment in full of the repurchase price calculated under this
Section 4.20, or (c) the day when the Common Stock was suspended, delisted or
deleted from trading, whichever is greater, multiplied by (2) the aggregate
number of Underlying Shares and Warrant Shares owned by such Purchaser;
(ii) the greater of (A) the outstanding principal amount and
accrued and unpaid interest on the Debentures owned by such Purchaser and (B)
the product of (1) the average Per Share Market Value for the five (5) Trading
Days immediately preceding (a) the day of such notice, (b) the date of payment
in full of the repurchase price calculated under this Section 4.20, or (c) the
day when the Common Stock was suspended, delisted or deleted from trading,
whichever is greater, multiplied by (2) the aggregate number of Underlying
Shares issuable upon the outstanding Debentures owned by the Purchaser;
(iii) the product of (A) the difference, but not below zero,
between (1) the average Per Share Market Value for the five (5) Trading Days
immediately preceding (a) the day of such notice, (b) the date of payment in
full of the repurchase price calculated under this Section 4.20, or (c) the day
when the Common Stock was suspended, delisted or deleted from trading, whichever
is greater, and (2) the then-current exercise price of the Warrant, multiplied
by (B) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant owned
by the Purchaser; and
(iv) interest on such amounts set forth in (i) - (iii) above
accruing from the seventh (7th) day after such notice until the repurchase price
under this Section 4.20 is paid in full, at the rate of fifteen percent (15%)
per annum.
Section 4.21 No Violation of Applicable Law. Notwithstanding any
provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if the redemption of the
Debentures, the Warrants, the Underlying Shares or the Warrant Shares otherwise
required under this Agreement, the Debenture, the Warrant, or the Registration
Rights Agreement would be prohibited by the relevant provisions of Colorado law,
such redemption shall be effected as soon as it is permitted under such law;
provided, however, that interest payable by the Company with respect to any such
redemption shall continue to accrue in accordance with Section 4.20.
Section 4.22 Redemption Restrictions. Notwithstanding any provision of
this Agreement to the contrary, if any redemption of Debentures, the Warrants,
Underlying Shares or the Warrant Shares otherwise required under this Agreement,
the Debenture, the Warrant, or the Registration Rights Agreement would be
prohibited in the absence of consent from any lender of the Company or any of
the Subsidiaries, or by the holders of any class of securities of the Company,
the Company shall use its best efforts to obtain such consent as promptly as
practicable after the redemption is required. Interest payable by the Company
with respect to any such redemption shall continue to accrue in accordance with
Section 4.20 until such consent is obtained. Nothing contained in this Section
4.22 shall be construed as a waiver by any of the Purchasers of any rights it
may have by virtue of any breach of any representation or warranty of the
Company herein as to the absence of any requirement to obtain any such consent.
Section 4.23 No Other Registration Rights. During the period commencing
the date hereof and ending on the earlier to occur of (i) the one year
anniversary of the Closing and (ii) the date the Registration Statement required
to be filed by the Company in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement
is declared effective under the Securities Act by the Commission, the Company
may not file any registration statement that provides for the registration of
shares of Common Stock to be sold by other shareholders of the Company without
the prior written consent of the Purchasers or their assigns. Such registration
rights shall not apply to registration statements relating solely to (i)
employee benefit plans notwithstanding the inclusion of a resale prospectus for
securities received under such employee benefit plan, or (ii) business
combinations.
Section 4.24. Merger or Consolidation. Until the earlier of the full
conversion of the Debentures or the Maturity Date of the Debentures (as that
term is defined in the Debenture), the Company and each Subsidiary will not, in
a single transaction or a series of related transactions, (i) consolidate with
or merge with or into any other Person, or (ii) permit any other Person to
consolidate with or merge into it, unless (w) either (A) the Company shall be
the survivor of such merger or consolidation or (B) the surviving Person shall
expressly assume by supplemental agreement all of the obligations of the Company
under the Debentures and the Warrants and this Agreement; (x) immediately before
and immediately after giving effect to such transaction (including any
indebtedness incurred or anticipated to be incurred in connection with the
transaction), no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing; (y) if the Company is not the surviving entity, such surviving
entity's common shares shall be listed on either The New York Stock Exchange,
American Stock Exchange, or Nasdaq National Market or Nasdaq SmallCap Market and
(z) the Company has delivered to the Purchasers an officers' certificate and
opinion of counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer
complies with this Agreement, that the surviving Person agrees to be bound
thereby and that all conditions precedent in this Agreement relating to such
transactions have been satisfied.
Section 4.25 Registration of Underlying Shares and Warrant Shares.
Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement between the Company
and the Purchasers, the Company shall cause the Underlying Shares and Warrant
Shares to be registered under the Securities Act, and so long as any Debentures
remain outstanding or any Warrants remain unexercised, the Company agrees to
keep such registration current with the Commission and with such states of the
United States as the Holders (as that term is defined in the Debenture) of the
Debenture or Warrants shall reasonably request in writing. All costs and
expenses of registration shall be borne by the Company.
Section 4.26 Liquidated Damages. The Company understands and agrees
that an Event of Default as contained in this Agreement, the Transaction
Documents and/or the Debenture will result in substantial economic loss to the
Purchasers which will be extremely difficult to calculate with precision.
Therefore, after the Closing, if for any reason the Company fails to cure any
Event of Default within the time given to cure such Event of Default, if any, as
compensation and liquidated damages for such default, and not as a penalty, the
Company agrees to pay liquidated damages to the Purchasers in an amount equal to
the two times (2x) the Purchase Price. The Company shall upon demand pay the
Purchasers, such liquidated damages by wire transfer in immediately available
funds to an account designated by the Purchasers. Nothing herein shall limit the
right of any of the Purchasers to pursue actual damages (less the amount of any
liquidated damages received pursuant to the foregoing) for the Company's failure
to cure an Event of Default, consistent with the terms of this Agreement.
NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE
COMPANY'S OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS SECTION SHALL SURVIVE ANY TERMINATION OF THIS
AGREEMENT.
Section 4.27 Use of Proceeds. At Closing, the Escrow Agent shall deduct
from escrow the outstanding principal amount and the accrued and unpaid interest
on that certain Demand Note dated the date of this Agreement in the original
principal amount of One Hundred Thousand Dollars (US$100,000) and pay such funds
to the payee thereof in satisfaction of the Demand Note.
Section 4.28. Fees. The Company will pay the following fees and
expenses in connection with this transaction: (a) US$9,500 to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx
& Xxxxxxxx, LLP ("KGL") for document production fees, receipt of which is
acknowledged, (b) $500 to KGL for expenses, receipt of which is acknowledged,
(c) US$5,000 to KGL as escrow agent fee, and (d) a commission to GEM equal to
three percent (3%) of the Purchase Price paid by Turbo International Ltd. All
fees and expenses will be paid at Closing and the Escrow Agent shall deduct such
fees and expenses directly from escrow.

reasonable judgment, other onerous condition under or pursuant to any applicable

amendment, by both the Company and the Purchasers, or, in the case of a waiver,
by the party against whom enforcement of any such waiver is sought. No waiver of
any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this
Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of
any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or

the exercise of any such right accruing to it thereafter.
Section 8.6. Headings. The headings herein are for convenience only,
do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or
affect any of the provisions hereof.
Section 8.7. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding

enforcement of the amount of interest to be charged on the outstanding principal

enforce the terms of this Agreement or any of its exhibits shall be exclusively
brought in the State and/or federal courts in the State and County of New York.

survive the Closing (or any earlier termination of this Agreement).
Section 8.11. Counterpart Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in
two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered
one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have
been signed by each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood
that both parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any
signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a
valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such
signature is executed) the same with the same force and effect as if such
facsimile signature page were an original thereof.
Section 8.12. Publicity. The Company and the Purchasers shall consult
with each other in issuing any press releases or otherwise making public
statements with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and neither

securities laws.
Section 8.13. Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions
of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity
and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall
not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt to
agree upon a valid and enforceable provision which shall be a reasonable
substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute
provision in this Agreement.
Section 8.14. Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all
rights provided herein or granted by law, including the recovery of damages, all
parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the obligations under this
Agreement and its exhibits, as well as equitable relief, including but not
limited to preliminary, temporary and permanent injunctive relief. Each of the
Company and the Purchasers agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate
compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of its obligations
described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agrees to waive in any action for
specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law
would be adequate. As to any equitable remedies pursued by Purchasers,
Purchasers shall not be obligated, and the Company hereby waives any
requirements, to post any bond or undertaking in connection with any application
for temporary, preliminary or permanent injunctive relief. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, in the event the liquidated damages provisions
of Section 4.26 is fully enforced and collected, specific performance shall not
be available to the Purchasers.

Conversion and Exercise Procedures
1. At any time, and from time to time during the term of this Agreement,
any Purchaser may deliver to the Escrow Agent written notice (a "Notice
of Conversion" or "Notice of Exercise") that it has elected to convert
the Debentures or exercise the Warrants, registered in the names of
such Purchaser, in whole or in part, in accordance with the terms of
the Debenture or Warrants, and the Notice of Conversion to be in the
form annexed as Exhibit G , and the Notice of Exercise to be in the
form annexed as Exhibit H hereto. A fee of $350 shall accompany every
Notice of Conversion or Notice of Exercise delivered to the Escrow
Agent.
2. Holder shall send by fax the executed Holder Notice of Conversion or
Notice of Exercise to the Escrow Agent by 4:00 p.m. New York Time on
the date of the Conversion or Exercise. The Escrow Agent shall send the
Holder Notice of Conversion or Notice of Exercise by facsimile to the
Company by the end of the Business Day.
3. The Company shall have two (2) Business Days from the transmission of
the Notice of Conversion by the Escrow Agent to object only to the
calculation of the number of Debenture Escrow Shares and Warrant
Escrow Shares (collectively the "Escrow Shares") to be released. If
the Company fails to object to the calculation of the number of Escrow
Shares to be released within said time, then the Company shall be
deemed to have waived any objections to the calculation of the number
of Escrow Shares set forth in the Purchaser's Notice and directed
Escrow Agent to release same. The Company's only basis for any
objection hereunder shall be to the calculation of the number of
Escrow Shares to be released. In the event of such an objection, the
Parties shall have one (1) Business Day to agree on the number of
Escrow Shares to be released pursuant to said Conversion. In the event
that the Parties cannot agree on the number of Escrow Shares to be
released in said time, then the Company shall commence a legal action
in the appropriate State or federal court in the State and County of
New York, within five (5) Business Days of the transmittal of the
Notice of Conversion by the Escrow Agent to the Company. If the
Company does not commence such legal action within said five (5)
Business Days, the Escrow Agent shall release the number of shares
stated in the Notice of Conversion to the Purchaser and the Company's
objection shall be deemed withdrawn and waived with prejudice. If the
Escrow Agent does not receive said objection notice within the time
period set forth above from the Company, the Escrow Agent shall
release from escrow and deliver to the Purchaser certificates or
instruments representing the number of Escrow Shares issuable to the
Purchaser in accordance with such conversion on the second Business
Day from the transmittal to the Company of the Notice of Conversion.
In the event that the certificates evidencing the Escrow Shares held
by the Escrow Agent are not in denominations appropriate for such
delivery to the Purchaser, the Escrow Agent shall request the Company
to cause its transfer agent and registrar to reissue certificates in
smaller denominations. The Escrow Agent shall, however, immediately
release to the Purchaser certificates representing such lesser number
of shares as the denominations in its possession will allow that is
closest to but no more than the actual number to be released to the
Purchaser. Upon receipt of the reissued shares in lesser denominations
from the Company's transfer agent, the Escrow Agent shall release to
the Purchaser the balance of the shares due to the Purchaser.
4. Holder shall send the original Debenture and Holder Notice of
Conversion to the Escrow Agent via FedEx or other commercial overnight
courier, along with a fee of $350, with instructions regarding names
and amount of certificates for the issuance of the Underlying Shares,
and instructions as to the re-issuance of the balance of the
Debentures, if conversion is not in full. However, if the Escrow Agent
is holding the Debenture, the Notice of Conversion may be faxed to the
Escrow Agent and the fee may be transmitted via wire transfer. In the
event that the Escrow Agent has custody of the Debenture, the Escrow
Agent shall notify the Company and the Holder in writing of the
balance of the Debenture remaining and the Company and the Holder
shall acknowledge such notice in writing, in lieu of a new Debenture
being issued for the balance.
4. Company will issue the new Debentures (if any) and will send such new
Debentures by overnight courier within five (5) Business Days to the
Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall send the Common Shares to the
Holder in accordance with Holder's instructions within two (2)
Business Days of receipt of the Notice of Conversion and will send the
new Debentures (if any) to the Holder upon receipt.
5. The Escrow Agent agrees to notify in writing by facsimile the Company
each time it releases Escrow Shares to the Purchaser. Until any such
release and notification to the Company, the Escrow Shares shall not
be deemed to be validly issued and outstanding shares of capital stock
of the Company. Such notification shall be given when the Escrow Agent
delivers the Notice of Conversion to the Company.
6. Upon receipt of a Notice of Exercise for the Warrants, the Warrants
and exercise price for the Warrants, the Escrow Agent shall notify the
Company of the exercise of the Warrants pursuant to paragraph 2.
Within two (2) Business Days of the receipt of the Notice of Exercise,
the Escrow Agent shall wire the exercise price to the Company pursuant
to the instructions provided by the Company and shall release the
Warrant Shares to the Holder. The Escrow Agent shall return the
original Warrants to the Company for cancellation, or re-issuance for
the balance if applicable. The Company will issue the new Warrants (if
any) and will send such new Warrants by overnight courier within five
(5) Business Days to the Escrow Agent.
7. The Company agrees that, at any time the conversion price of the
Debentures is such that the number of Debenture Escrow Shares is less
than 200% of the number of shares of Common Stock that would be needed
to satisfy full conversion of all of the Debentures given the then
current conversion price (the "Full Conversion Shares"), upon five (5)
days written notice of such circumstance to the Company by the
Purchaser and/or Escrow Agent, it will issue additional share
certificates, in the names of each of the Purchaser, and deliver same
to the Escrow Agent, such that the new number of Debenture Escrow
Shares is equal to 200% of the Full Conversion Shares.
