ARTICLE II
CONVERSION
RIGHTS
The
Holder shall have the right to convert the principal due under this Note into
Shares of the Borrower's Common Stock, no par value per share (“Common Stock”)
as set forth below.
2.1. Conversion
into the Borrower's Common Stock.
(a) The
Holder shall have the right from and after the date of the issuance of this
Note
and then at any time until this Note is fully paid, to convert any outstanding
and unpaid principal portion of this Note, and accrued interest, at the election
of the Holder (the date of giving of such notice of conversion being a
"Conversion Date") into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock
as
such stock exists on the date of issuance of this Note, or any shares of capital
stock of Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or
reclassified, at the conversion price as defined in Section 2.1(b) hereof (the
"Conversion Price"), determined as provided herein. Upon delivery to the
Borrower of a completed Notice of Conversion, a form of which is annexed hereto,
Borrower shall issue and deliver to the Holder within four (4) business days
from the Conversion Date (such third day being the “Delivery Date”) that number
of shares of Common Stock for the portion of the Note converted in accordance
with the foregoing. At the election of the Holder, the Borrower will deliver
accrued but unpaid interest on the Note in the manner provided in Section 1.3
through the Conversion Date directly to the Holder on or before the Delivery
Date (as defined in the Subscription Agreement). The number of shares of Common
Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by
dividing that portion of the principal of the Note and interest to be converted,
by the Conversion Price.
(b) Subject
to adjustment as provided in Section 2.1(c) hereof, the Conversion Price per
share shall be the lesser of: (i) seventy percent (70%) of the average of the
five lowest closing bid prices for the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg
L.P. for the Principal Market for the ten trading days preceding a Conversion
Date, or (ii) $0.55.
(c)
The
Conversion Price and number and kind of shares or other securities to be issued
upon conversion determined pursuant to Section 2.1(a), shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events while this
conversion right remains outstanding, as follows:
A. Merger,
Sale of Assets, etc. If the Borrower at any time shall consolidate with or
merge
into or sell or convey all or substantially all its assets to any other
corporation, this Note, as to the unpaid principal portion thereof and accrued
interest thereon, shall thereafter be deemed to evidence the right to purchase
such number and kind of shares or other securities and property as would have
been issuable or distributable on account of such consolidation, merger, sale
or
conveyance, upon or with respect to the securities subject to the conversion
or
purchase right immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale or
conveyance. The foregoing provision shall similarly apply to successive
transactions of a similar nature by any such successor or purchaser. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the anti-dilution provisions of this
Section shall apply to such securities of such successor or purchaser after
any
such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance.
B. Reclassification,
etc. If the Borrower at any time shall, by reclassification or otherwise, change
the Common Stock into the same or a different number of securities of any class
or classes that may be issued or outstanding, this Note, as to the unpaid
principal portion thereof and accrued interest thereon, shall thereafter be
deemed to evidence the right to purchase an adjusted number of such securities
and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change
with respect to the Common Stock immediately prior to such reclassification
or
other change.
C. Stock
Splits, Combinations and Dividends. If the shares of Common Stock are subdivided
or combined into a greater or smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or
if a
dividend is paid on the Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, the Conversion
Price shall be proportionately reduced in case of subdivision of shares or
stock
dividend or proportionately increased in the case of combination of shares,
in
each such case by the ratio which the total number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately after such event bears to the total number of shares
of
Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event..
D. Share
Issuance. So long as this Note is outstanding, if the Borrower shall issue
or
agree to issue any shares of Common Stock except for the Excepted Issuances
(as
defined in the Subscription Agreement) for a consideration less than the
Conversion Price in effect at the time of such issue, then, and thereafter
successively upon each such issue, the Conversion Price shall be reduced to
such
other lower issue price. For purposes of this adjustment, the issuance of any
security carrying the right to convert such security into shares of Common
Stock
or of any warrant, right or option to purchase Common Stock shall result in
an
adjustment to the Conversion Price upon the issuance of the above-described
security and again upon the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise
of
such conversion or purchase rights if such issuance is at a price lower than
the
then applicable Maximum Base Price. The reduction of the Conversion Price
described in this paragraph is in addition to other rights of the Holder
described in this Note and the Subscription Agreement.
(d) Whenever
the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 2.1(c) above, the Borrower
shall promptly mail to the Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price
after such adjustment and setting forth a statement of the facts requiring
such
adjustment.
(e) During
the period the conversion right exists, Borrower will reserve from its
authorized and unissued Common Stock not less than 200% of the number of shares
of Common Stock issuable upon the full conversion of this Note. Borrower
represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly issued,
fully paid and non-assessable. Borrower agrees that its issuance of this Note
shall constitute full authority to its officers, agents, and transfer agents
who
are charged with the duty of executing and issuing stock certificates to execute
and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock upon the
conversion of this Note.
2.2 Method
of Conversion.
This
Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part as described in Section
2.1(a) hereof and the Subscription Agreement. Upon partial conversion of this
Note, a new Note containing the same date and provisions of this Note shall,
at
the request of the Holder, be issued by the Borrower to the Holder for the
principal balance of this Note and interest which shall not have been converted
or paid.
2.3 Maximum
Conversion.
The
Holder 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 Holder and its affiliates on a Conversion Date, (ii) any Common Stock
issuable in connection with the unconverted portion of the Note, and (iii)
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 Holder and
its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock
of
the Borrower 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 Holder
shall not be limited to aggregate conversions of only 4.99% and aggregate
conversion by the Holder may exceed 4.99%. The Holder shall have the authority
and obligation to determine whether the restriction contained in this Section
2.3 will limit any conversion hereunder and to the extent that the Holder
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 Holder. The Holder may waive the conversion
limitation described in this Section 2.3, in whole or in part, upon and
effective after 61 days prior written notice to the Borrower. The Holder may
allocate which of the equity of the Borrower deemed beneficially owned by the
Holder shall be included in the 4.99% amount described above and which shall
be
allocated to the excess above 4.99%.
2.4. Optional
Redemption of Principal Amount.
Provided an Event of Default has not occurred, whether or not such Event of
Default has been cured and further provided that the Common Stock has had a
closing price of more than $1.50 as reported by Bloomberg L.P. for the Principal
Market for twenty consecutive trading days, the Borrower will have the option
of
prepaying the outstanding Principal Amount ("Optional Redemption"), in whole
or
in part, by paying to the Holder a sum of money equal to one hundred and thirty
percent (130%) of the Principal Amount to be redeemed, together with accrued
but
unpaid interest thereon and any and all other sums due, accrued or payable
to
the Holder arising under this Note or any Transaction Document through the
Redemption Payment Date as defined below (the "Redemption Amount"). Borrower’s
election to exercise its right to prepay must be by notice in writing (“Notice
of Redemption”). The Notice of Redemption shall specify the date for such
Optional Redemption (the "Redemption Payment Date"), which date shall be ten
(10) business days after the date of the Notice of Redemption (the "Redemption
Period"). A Notice of Redemption shall not be effective with respect to any
portion of the Principal Amount for which the Holder has a pending election
to
convert pursuant to Section 2.1, or for conversions initiated or made by the
Holder pursuant to Section 2.1 during the Redemption Period. On the Redemption
Payment Date, the Redemption Amount, less any portion of the Redemption Amount
against which the Holder has exercised its rights pursuant to Section 2.1,
shall
be paid in good funds to the Holder. In the event the Borrower fails to pay
the
Redemption Amount on the Redemption Payment Date as set forth herein, then
(i)
such Notice of Redemption will be null and void, (ii) Borrower will have no
right to deliver another Notice of Redemption, and (iii) Borrower’s failure may
be deemed by Holder to be a non-curable Event of Default.
ARTICLE
III

occurrence of any of the following events of default ("Event of Default") shall,
