CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE AGREEMENT
| PRINCIPAL SUM: $202,000 USD | INTEREST RATE: 5% |
FOR VALUE RECEIVED from Building 400 Limited, a company formed under the laws of England (the "Holder"), EUROCAN HOLDINGS LTD. (the "Company") hereby acknowledges itself indebted and promises pay by December 31, 2018 (the "Redemption Date"), to or to the order of the Holder the sum of $202,000 in lawful money of the United States of America (the “Principal”) upon presentation and surrender of this debenture at Company's office at 0 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxx, xxxxx 000, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000 (or at such other place as the Company may designate by notice in writing to the Holder), and to pay interest thereon, calculated annually from the date hereof at a rate equal to FIVE PER CENT (5%) per annum (the “Interest Rate”) payable in like money at the same place on the Redemption Date.
| 1. | Conversion |
(1)At any time and from time to time after the Redemption Date, the Holder may convert any or all of the Principal and accrued interest thereon then owing to Holder hereunder (the “Indebtedness”) into fully paid and non-assessable common shares of the Company (the “Shares”) at a conversion rate equal to one common share for each $0.01 of Indebtedness. Such conversion may be effected by the surrender of a copy of this debenture at the office of the Company, accompanied by a written notice of conversion substantially in the form of Schedule “A” hereto signed by the Holder notifying the Company as to the exercise of the right of conversion and specifying the amount of Indebtedness in respect of which this debenture is converted and setting forth the name and address of any person in whose name the Shares issuable upon such conversion are to be registered. The Holder may convert this debenture in whole at any time or in part from time to time, so long as the Company remains indebted to the Holder hereunder.
(2)As promptly as practicable after the surrender of this debenture for conversion, the Company shall issue to the Holder or any designated nominee a certificate representing the number of fully paid and non-assessable common shares into which all or any portion of the Indebtedness hereunder has been converted and, in the event that any amount remains owing hereunder after giving effect to such conversion, the Company shall issue a new debenture, in form identical to this debenture, in principal amount equal to the amount of such unconverted Indebtedness.
(3)No fractional share or scrip representing a fractional share shall be required to be issued upon the conversion of this debenture. If the conversion of this debenture would otherwise result in a fractional share, the Company shall, in lieu of issuing such fractional share, pay to the Holder an amount equal to the fair market value of the fractional share.
(4)The conversion of this debenture shall be deemed to have been made at the close of business on the date on which this debenture is surrendered for conversion, so that the Holder’s rights in respect of the converted portion shall terminate at such time, and any person entitled to receive the shares into which the whole or any part of this debenture is converted shall be treated, as between the Company and such person, as having become the holder of record of such shares at such time.
(5)If the Company at any time subdivides or consolidates the Shares issuable upon conversion, the Holder shall thereafter be entitled on conversion to receive the Shares to which it was before such subdivision or consolidation entitled, as subdivided or consolidated, and the conversion to receive the Shares to which it was before such subdivision or consolidation entitled, as subdivided or consolidated, and the conversion rate of Indebtedness shall be adjusted accordingly. Any such adjustment shall become effective on the date and at the time that such subdivision or consolidation becomes effective.
(6)In case of:
(a)any reclassification or change of Shares issuable by the Company upon conversion hereunder;
(b)any consolidation, merger or amalgamation of the Company with or into any other corporation;
(c)the sale of the assets of the Company substantially as an entirety to any legal entity followed by a winding up of the Company or a distribution of its assets to the shareholders; or
(d)the sale of the assets of the Company substantially as an entirety to any legal entity in exchange for securities in or of such legal entity or any affiliate thereof;
the Holder may thereafter convert this debenture (or any portion thereof) into the kind and amount of Shares or other securities and property (or the applicable portion thereof) receivable on such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, amalgamation or sale that the Holder would have been entitled to receive thereupon had the Holder been the registered holder of the number of shares into which this debenture might have been converted immediately prior thereto. The provisions of this section shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications and changes of Shares and to successive consolidations, mergers, amalgamations and sales.
| 2. | Expenses |
The Company shall pay to the Holder forthwith on demand all costs, charges and expenses, including all legal fees (on a solicitor and own client basis), incurred by the Holder in connection with the recovery or enforcement of payment of any amount owing hereunder. All such sums shall be secured hereby and shall be added to the principal amount owing hereunder and bear interest at the Interest Rate.
| 3. | Prepayment |
The Company may pay any amount outstanding hereunder at any time without penalty.
| 4. | Assignment |
Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, this debenture and all of the rights of the Holder hereunder are assignable by the Holder.
| 5. | Waiver |
No consent or waiver by the Holder will be effective unless made in writing and duly signed by the Holder or an authorized representative of the Holder.
| 6. | Notice |
Any demand, notice or other communication in connection with this debenture shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered to an officer or other responsible employee of the addressee, mailed by registered mail or sent by telefacsimile or other direct written electronic means, charges prepaid, at or to the address or telefacsimile number of the addressee set out opposite its name below or to such other address or addresses, telex or telefacsimile number or numbers as either Company or the Holder may from time to time designate to the other party in such manner.
