acceptance by the Company and receipt by the Escrow Agent of the total
purchase price, the Company will issue to the Escrow Agent one or more
certificates for the full number of shares of Class A Preferred Stock
subscribed for.
5. Covenants of the Company. For so long as any Class A Preferred
Stock held by the Purchaser remain outstanding, the Company covenants and
agrees with the Purchaser that:
(a) It will reserve from its authorized but unissued shares of
Common Stock a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to permit
the conversion in full of the outstanding Class A Preferred Stock.
(b) It will maintain the listing of its Common Stock on
NASDAQ.
6. Any holder of Series Q Class A Preferred Stock (an "Eligible
Holder") may at any time convert any whole number of shares of Series Q
Class A Preferred Stock in accordance with this Part. For the purposes
of conversion, the Series Q Class A Preferred Stock shall be valued at
$25,000 per share ("Value"), and, if converted, the Series Q Class A
Preferred Stock shall be converted into such number of Common Shares of
the Company $.10 par value (the "Conversion Shares") as is obtained by
dividing the aggregate Value of the shares of Series Q Class A Preferred
Stock being so converted by the "Conversion Price." For purposes of this
Part, the "Conversion Price" means Seventy-five percent (75%), or such
lesser amount which reflects any penalty which may accrue in accordance
with Paragraph 7 of this Subscription Agreement, of the average daily
closing bid price of Common Stock as reported by NASDAQ for the period of
5 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date of the
conversion of the Series Q Class A Preferred Stock in respect of which
such Conversion Price is determined. The number of Conversion Shares so
determined shall be rounded to the nearest whole number of shares.
6.1 The conversion right provided by the above section may be
exercised only by an Eligible Holder of Series Q Class A Preferred Stock,
in whole or in part, by the surrender of the share certificate or share
certificates representing the Series Q Class A Preferred Stock to be
converted at the principal office of the Corporation (or at such other
place as the Corporation may designate in a written notice sent to the
holder by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at its address shown on the
books of the Corporation) against delivery of that number of whole Common
Shares as shall be computed by dividing (1) the aggregate Value of the
Series Q Class A Preferred Stock so surrendered, if any, by (2) the
Conversion Price. Each Series Q Class A Preferred Stock certificate
surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed by its holder. In the event
of any exercise of the conversion right of the Series Q Class A Preferred
Stock granted herein (i) share certificates representing the Common Stock
purchased by virtue of such exercise, free of restrictive legend or stop
transfer orders, shall be delivered to such holder within 5 business days
after receipt by the Corporation of the original Notice of Conversion and
the certificate representing the Series Q Class A Preferred Stock (the
fifth business day after receipt of such original documents, not counting
the date of receipt, being the "Delivery Date"), and (ii) unless the
Series Q Class A Preferred Stock has been fully converted, a new share
certificate representing the Series Q Class A Preferred Stock not so
converted, if any, shall also be delivered to such holder on or before
such Delivery Date, or carried on the Corporation's ledger, at holder's
option. Any Eligible Holder may exercise its right to convert the Series
Q Class A Preferred Stock by telecopying an executed and completed Notice
of Conversion to the Corporation, and within 72 hours thereafter,
delivering the original Notice of Conversion and the certificate
representing the Series Q Class A Preferred Stock to the Corporation by
express courier. Each date on which a telecopied Notice of Conversion is
received by the Corporation in accordance with the provisions hereof
shall be deemed a Conversion Date. The Corporation will cause delivery
of the Common Stock certificates issuable upon conversion of any Series Q
Class A Preferred Stock (together with the certificates representing the
Series Q Class A Preferred Stock not so converted, if requested) to the
Eligible Holder via express courier on or before the Delivery Date if the
Corporation has received the original Notice of Conversion and Series Q
Class A Preferred Stock certificate being so converted in accordance with
this paragraph.
6.2 All Common Shares which may be issued upon conversion of
Series Q Class A Shares will, upon issuance, be duly issued, fully paid
and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, and charges with
respect to the issue thereof. At all times that any Series Q Class A
Shares are outstanding, the Corporation shall have authorized, and shall
have reserved for the purpose of issuance upon such conversion, a
sufficient number of Common Shares to provide for the conversion into
Common Shares of all Series Q Class A Shares then outstanding at the then
effective Conversion Price. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, if, at any time, the Conversion Price is decreased, the number
of Common Shares authorized and reserved for issuance upon the conversion
of the Series Q Class A Shares shall be proportionately increased.
6.3 Notwithstanding the provisions hereof, in no event shall
the holder be entitled to convert any Series Q Class A Preferred Stock in
excess of that number of shares upon conversion of which the sum of (1)
the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Purchaser
and its affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed
beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of
the Preferred Stock), and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock with respect to which
the determination of this proviso is being made, would result in
beneficial ownership by the Purchaser and its affiliates of more than
4.9% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. For purposes of the
proviso 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 13 D-G thereunder, except as
otherwise provided in clause (1) of such proviso.
7. Registration. The Company shall be required, at the Company's
expense, to effect the registration of twice the number of the Underlying
Shares issuable on the "Closing Date" (June 5, 1998) upon conversion of
the Class A Preferred Stock under the Act and relevant Blue Sky laws.
The Company and the Purchaser shall cooperate in good faith in connection
with the furnishing of information required for such registration and the
taking of such other actions as may be legally or commercially necessary
in order to effect such registration. The Company shall file a
registration statement or amended registration statement and shall use
its best efforts to cause such registration statement or amended
registration statement to become effective as soon as practicable
thereafter. Such best efforts shall include, but not be limited to,
promptly responding to all comments received from the staff of the
Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to such registration
statement and promptly preparing and filing amendments to such
registration statement which are responsive to the comments received from
the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Once declared
effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission the Company shall
cause such registration statement to remain effective until the earlier
of (i) the sale by the Purchaser of all Underlying Shares registered or
(ii) one year after the effective date of such registration statement.
In the event the registration statement or amended registration statement
is not declared effective within 90 days after the date of filing, at
Purchaser's option, either (i) the current Twenty-five percent (25%)
discount provided in the Conversion Price shall increase by three percent
(3%) and such discount shall continue to increase by two percent (2%) for
each thirty (30) day period thereafter until the registration statement
is declared effective by the SEC, or until the discount reached is thirty-
five percent (35%), and additional Common Stock shall be issued to the
Purchaser upon conversion in accordance with such additional discounts,
or (ii) Purchaser may convert any whole number of shares of Series Q
Class A Preferred Stock into Common Shares of the Corporation pursuant to
Regulation S, provided that Purchaser demonstrates to the Corporation's
reasonable satisfaction that Purchaser is qualified at all relevant times
as an investor under Regulation S.
