The obligations of the parties under this section shall survive any termination of this Agreement, and resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent shall be independent of any obligation of Escrow Agent.

The Company shall also promptly notify each Investor in writing (i) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and when a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective (notification of such effectiveness shall be delivered to each Investor by facsimile on the same day of such effectiveness), (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or related prospectus or related information, and (iii) of the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement would be appropriate.

All expenses incurred in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to Sections 2 and 3, including, without limitation, all registration, listing and qualifications fees, printers, legal and accounting fees shall be paid by the Company.

With respect to Registrable Securities which are included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement:
(a) To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company will, and hereby does, indemnify, hold harmless and defend each Investor, the directors, officers, partners, employees, agents, representatives of, and each Person, if any, who controls any Investor within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act (each, an “Indemnified Person”), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees, amounts paid in settlement or expenses, joint or several (collectively, “Claims”) incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim, suit, inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or before any court or governmental,
7
administrative or other regulatory agency, body or the SEC, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an indemnified party is or may be a party thereto (“Indemnified Damages”), to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or in any filing made in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or other “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in which Registrable Securities are offered (“Blue Sky Filing”), or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any final prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the SEC) or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading; or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation there under relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) being, collectively, “Violations”). The Company shall reimburse the Investors and each such controlling person promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any legal fees or disbursements or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a): (x) shall not apply to a Claim by an Indemnified Person arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto; (y) shall not be available to the extent such Claim is based on a failure of the Investor to deliver or to cause to be delivered the prospectus made available by the Company, if such prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(c); and (z) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section 9 hereof.
(b) In connection with a Registration Statement, each Investor agrees to severally and not jointly indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in Section 6(a), the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers, employees, representatives, or agents and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act (each an “Indemnified Party”), against any Claim or Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject, under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim or Indemnified Damages arise out of or is based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Investor expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement; and, subject to Section 6(d), such Investor will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided,
8
however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6(b) and the agreement with respect to contribution contained in Section 7 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of such Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, further, however, that the Investor shall be liable under this Section 6(b) for only that amount of a Claim or Indemnified Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to such Investor as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section 9. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(b) with respect to any prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Party if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in the prospectus was corrected and such new prospectus was delivered to each Investor prior to such Investor’s use of the prospectus to which the Claim relates.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be; provided, however, that an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses of not more than one (1) counsel for such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person which relates to such action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party
9
within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.
(d) The indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Damages are incurred.
(e) The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.
7. CONTRIBUTION.
To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that: (i) no seller of Registrable Securities guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 0000 Xxx) shall be entitled to contribution from any seller of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation; and (ii) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities.
8. REPORTS UNDER THE 1934 ACT.
With a view to making available to the Investors the benefits of Rule 144 the Company agrees to:
(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;
(b) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements (it being understood that nothing herein shall limit the Company’s obligations under Section 4(c) of the Securities Purchase Agreement) and the filing of such reports and other documents as are required by the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and
(c) furnish to each Investor so long as such Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon written request, (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the public information requirements of Rule 144, the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investors to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1) without registration.
10
9. AMENDMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.
Provisions of this Agreement may be amended and the observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of the Company and Investors who then hold at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Registrable Securities. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 9 shall be binding upon each Investor and the Company. No such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it applies to fewer than all of the holders of the Registrable Securities. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of this Agreement unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to this Agreement.
10. MISCELLANEOUS.
(a) A Person is deemed to be a holder of Registrable Securities whenever such Person owns or is deemed to own of record such Registrable Securities. If the Company receives conflicting instructions, notices or elections from two (2) or more Persons with respect to the same Registrable Securities, the Company shall act upon the basis of instructions, notice or election received from the registered owner of such Registrable Securities.
(b) Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered: (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally; (ii) upon receipt, when sent by facsimile (provided confirmation of transmission is mechanically or electronically generated and kept on file by the sending party); or (iii) one (1) business day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight delivery service, in each case properly addressed to the party to receive the same.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company also has entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Investors (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company agreed, among other things, to register the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”).

In connection with the foregoing, we advise you that a member of the SEC’s staff has advised us by telephone that the SEC has entered an order declaring the Registration Statement effective under the 1933 Act at [ENTER TIME OF EFFECTIVENESS] on [ENTER DATE OF EFFECTIVENESS] and we have no knowledge, after telephonic inquiry of a member of the SEC’s staff, that any stop order suspending its effectiveness has been issued or that any proceedings for that purpose are pending before, or threatened by, the SEC and the Registrable Securities are available for resale under the 1933 Act pursuant to the Registration Statement.

RE: MOBIVENTURES, INC.
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Reference is made to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), dated the date hereof, by and between MobiVentures, Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of Nevada (the “Company”), and the Buyers set forth on Schedule I attached thereto (collectively the “Buyer”), pursuant to which the Company shall sell to the Buyer up to Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) of the Company’s secured redeemable convertible debentures, which shall be convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”). The shares of Common Stock to be converted thereunder plus interest which may be converted into Common Stock and any Liquidated Damages to which the Buyer may become entitled pursuant to the Transaction Documents (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) , which may be converted into Common Stock thereunder are referred to herein as the “Conversion Shares.” This letter shall serve as our irrevocable authorization and direction to you (provided that you are the transfer agent of the Company at such time) to issue the Conversion Shares in shares of the Company’s Common Stock, in the event the Buyer has elected to have the interest of the Convertible Debenture, pursuant to Section 1.05 of the Convertible Debenture, paid in Common Stock (the “Interest Shares”), to the Buyer from time to time upon surrender to you of a properly completed and duly executed Conversion Notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I, delivered on behalf of the Company by Xxxxx X. Xxxxxxx XX, P.A..
Specifically, upon receipt by the Company or The Law Office of Xxxxx X. Xxxxxxx XX, P.A. of a copy of a Conversion Notice, you on behalf of the Company, shall as soon as practicable, but in no event later than one (1) Trading Day (as defined below) after receipt of such Conversion Notice, send, via facsimile a Conversion Notice, which shall constitute an irrevocable instruction to you to process such Conversion Notice in accordance with the terms of these instructions. Upon your receipt of a copy of the executed Conversion Notice, you shall use your best efforts to, within three (3) Trading Days following the date of receipt of the Conversion Notice, (A) issue and surrender to a common carrier for overnight delivery to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Buyer or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Buyer shall be entitled as set forth in the Conversion Notice or (B) provided you are participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, upon the request of the Buyer, credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Buyer shall be
entitled to the Buyer’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal At Custodian (“DWAC”) system provided the Buyer causes its bank or broker to initiate the DWAC transaction. (“Trading Day” shall mean any day on which the Nasdaq Market is open for customary trading.)
The Company hereby confirms to you and the Buyer that certificates representing the Conversion Shares, the Interest Shares and/or the Liquidated Damages Shares shall not bear any legend restricting transfer of the Conversion Shares thereby and should not be subject to any stop-transfer restrictions and shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company provided that the Company counsel delivers (i) the Notice of Effectiveness set forth Exhibit II attached hereto and (ii) an opinion of counsel in the form set forth in Exhibit III attached hereto, and that if the Conversion Shares, the Interest Shares, and/or the Liquidated Damages Shares are not registered for sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, then the certificates for the Conversion Shares shall bear the following legend:
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, IN A FORM REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER SAID ACT.”
The Company hereby confirms and you acknowledge that in the event Counsel to the Company does not issue an opinion of counsel as required to issue the Conversion Shares and the Interest Shares free of legend the Company authorizes and you will accept an opinion of Counsel from Xxxxx X. Xxxxxxx XX, P.A..
The Company hereby confirms to you and the Buyer that no instructions other than as contemplated herein will be given to you by the Company with respect to the Conversion Shares, or the Interest Shares. The Company hereby agrees that it shall not replace you as the Company’s transfer agent without the prior written consent of the Buyer.
Unless the Company is in breach of its agreement with the Transfer Agent, any attempt by the Transfer Agent to resign as the Company’s transfer agent hereunder shall not be effective until such time as the Company provides to the Transfer Agent written notice that a suitable replacement has agreed to serve as transfer agent and to be bound by the terms and conditions of these Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions.
Any attempt by you to resign as transfer agent hereunder shall not be effective until such time as the Company provides to you written notice that a suitable replacement has agreed to serve as transfer agent and to be bound by the terms and conditions of these Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions.
2
The Company and you hereby acknowledge and confirm that complying with the terms of this Agreement does not and shall not prohibit you from satisfying any and all fiduciary responsibilities and duties it may owe to the Company.
The Company and you acknowledge that the Buyer is relying on the representations and covenants made by the Company and you hereunder and are a material inducement to the Buyer purchasing convertible debentures under the Securities Purchase Agreement. The Company and you further acknowledge that without such representations and covenants of the Company and you made hereunder, the Buyer would not enter into the Securities Purchase Agreement and purchase convertible debentures pursuant thereto.
Each party hereto specifically acknowledges and agrees that in the event of a breach or threatened breach by a party hereto of any provision hereof, the Buyer will be irreparably damaged and that damages at law would be an inadequate remedy if these Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions were not specifically enforced. Therefore, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by a party hereto, including, without limitation, the attempted termination of the agency relationship created by this instrument, the Buyer shall be entitled, in addition to all other rights or remedies, to an injunction restraining such breach, without being required to show any actual damage or to post any bond or other security, and/or to a decree for specific performance of the provisions of these Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this letter agreement regarding Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions to be duly executed and delivered as of the date first written above.

We have acted as special counsel to MobiVentures, Inc. (the “Company”), in connection with the registration of ___________ shares (the “Shares”) of its common stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). We have not acted as your counsel. This opinion is given at the request and with the consent of the Company.

THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED SOLELY FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES AND NOT WITH A VIEW TOWARD RESALE AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
SECURED CONVERTIBLE REDEEMABLE DEBENTURE
MOBIVENTURES, INC.
March 31, 2008
No. MV - 1 | US$2,000,000 |
This Secured Convertible Redeemable Debenture (the “Debenture”) is issued on March 31, 2008 (the “Closing Date”) by MobiVentures, Inc. a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), to Trafalgar Capital Specialized Investment Fund, Luxembourg (together with its permitted successors and assigns, the “Holder”) pursuant to exemptions from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
ARTICLE I.
Section 1.01 Principal and Interest. For value received, the Company hereby promises to pay to the order of the Holder on March 31, 2010 in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds the unpaid principal sum of Two Million U.S. Dollars (US$2,000,000) together with interest on the unpaid principal of this Debenture at the rate of: (a) ten percent (10%) per annum compounded monthly from the date hereof until repaid. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual days elapsed and the Holder shall deduct the first two (2) interest payments at the Closing (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement).
Section 1.02 Optional Conversion. The Holder is entitled, at its option, to convert, and sell on the same day or at any subsequent time, at any time when the Company’s common stock par value US$0.001 per share (“Common Stock”) is trading at or above the Conversion Price and from time to time, until payment in full of this Debenture, all or any part of the principal amount of the Debenture, plus accrued interest, into shares (the
“Conversion Shares”) of the Common Stock, at the price per share equal to $0.0875 (the “Conversion Price”). No fraction of shares or scrip representing fractions of shares will be issued on conversion, but the number of shares issuable shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. To convert this Debenture, the Holder hereof shall deliver written notice thereof, substantially in the form of Exhibit “A” to this Debenture, with appropriate insertions (the “Conversion Notice”), to the Company at its address as set forth herein. The date upon which the conversion shall be effective (the “Conversion Date”) shall be deemed to be the date set forth in the Conversion Notice. Upon the Holder converting any of this Debenture into Common Stock or the Company redeeming any of this Debenture as provided herein, the principal amount owed under this Debenture shall be reduced by the principal amount so converted or redeemed. Additionally, whenever the monthly installment due pursuant to the Mandatory Redemption provisions of Section 1.05 hereof is not paid within five (5) days of the due date of such payment (unless such obligation has been suspended under the terms of Section 1.05), the Holder shall have the right to convert this Debenture at an amount equal to eighty-five percent (85%) of the lowest daily closing bid price of the Company’s Common Stock, as quoted by Bloomberg, LP, for the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the Conversion Date. In no event shall the Holder be entitled to convert this Debenture for a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of that number of shares of Common Stock which, upon giving effect to such conversion, would cause the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates to exceed 4.99% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock following such conversion.
Section 1.03 Reservation of Common Stock. The Company shall reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of this Debenture, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect such conversion, based upon the Conversion Price. If at any time the Company does not have a sufficient number of Conversion Shares authorized and available, then the Company shall file a preliminary proxy statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission within ten (10) business day after such occurrence and shall call and hold a special meeting of its stockholders as soon as practicable after such occurrence for the sole purpose of increasing the number of authorized shares of Common Stock.
Section 1.04 Optional Redemption. The Company may redeem this Debenture, in whole or in part, at any time provided that the Common Stock is trading below the Conversion Price by paying unpaid principal and interest accrued to the date of such redemption and a fifteen percent (15%) redemption premium on the amount redeemed.
Section 1.05 Mandatory Redemption. Except as provided in the final sentence of this Section (during which time the Company’s obligation to redeem this Debenture is suspended), the Company shall begin redeeming on this Debenture monthly beginning on the one (1) month anniversary following the Closing (each date, as well as the date of any Optional Redemption pursuant to Section 1.04 , a “Redemption Date”) by making equal payments over the remaining term of this Debenture by the Company making equal monthly principal and interest payments at a fifteen percent (15%) redemption premium on the principal redeemed each month as set out in Exhibit B. The Company may not redeem this Debenture at any time when the Common Stock is trading at or above the Conversion Price unless the Holder
2
notifies the Company on or prior to the date for such redemption that it is not utilizing its rights of conversion. Notwithstanding the restriction on redemption contained in the immediately preceeding sentence, in the occurrence of any event that results or will result in Pure Promoter not being owned by the Company, prior to the transfer of Pure Promoter, the Company shall redeem all outstanding principal and unpaid interest on this Debenture at a fifteen percent (15%) redemption premium on the principal redeemed.
Section 1.06 Interest Payments. Holder shall deduct the first two (2) interest payments at the First Closing At the time such interest is payable, the Holder, in its sole discretion, may elect to receive the interest in cash (via wire transfer or certified funds) or in the form of Common Stock. In the event of default, as described in Article III Section 3.01 hereunder, the Holder may elect that the interest be paid in cash (via wire transfer or certified funds) or in the form of Common Stock. If paid in the form of Common Stock, the amount of stock to be issued will be calculated as follows: the value of the stock shall be the Closing Bid Price on the date the interest payment is due. A number of shares of Common Stock with a value equal to the amount of interest due shall be issued. No fractional shares will be issued; therefore, in the event that the value of the Common Stock per share does not equal the total interest due, the Company will pay the balance in cash.
Section 1.07 Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, the Company will act as paying agent and registrar. The Company may change any paying agent, registrar, or Company-registrar by giving the Holder not less than ten (10) business days’ written notice of its election to do so, specifying the name, address, telephone number and facsimile number of the paying agent or registrar. The Company may act in any such capacity.
Section 1.08 Secured Nature of Debenture. This Debenture is secured by all of the assets and property of the Company and its subsidiaries as set forth on Exhibit A to the Security Agreement dated the date hereof between the Company and the Holder (the “Security Agreement”). As set forth in the Security Agreement, Holder’s security interest shall terminate upon the occurrence of an Expiration Event as defined in the Security Agreement.
Section 1.08 Currency Exchange Rate Protections.
(a) “Closing Date Exchange Rate” means the Euro to US dollar spot exchange rate as converted by the Holder’s Custodian on the date funds are transferred into escrow.
(b) “Repayment Exchange Rate” means in relation to each date of a Conversion or Redemption , the Euro to US dollar spot exchange rate as quoted by Bloomberg or Proquote on such date.
(c) If on the date of any Conversion Notice, the Repayment Exchange Rate is more than the Closing Date Exchange Rate then the number of Shares to be issued shall be increased by the same percentage as results from dividing the Repayment Exchange Rate by the relevant Closing Date Exchange Rate. By way of example, if the number of Shares to be issued in respect of a particular Conversion Notice would, but for this Section 1.08, be 1,000 and if the Closing Date Exchange Rate is 1.75 and the relevant Repayment Exchange Rate is 1.80, then 1,029 Shares will be issued in relation to that
3
Conversion Notice, as the case may be. For the avoidance of doubt, the formula for such calculation, by way of example for this Section 1.08, equals ((1.80 /1.75) -1)*1000 = 29 additional shares.
(d) If on any Redemption Date, the Cash Payment Date Exchange Rate, as defined below is more than the Closing Date Exchange Rate then the amount of cash required to satisfy the amounts due at such time shall be increased by the same percentage as results from dividing the Cash Payment Date Exchange Rate by the relevant Closing Date Exchange Rate. “Cash Payment Date Exchange Rate” means in relation to each Redemption Date the Euro to US dollar spot exchange rate as quoted by Bloomberg or Proquote on such date. By way of example, if the amount of cash required to repay all amounts due on such date would, but for this Section 1.08, be $1,000 and if the Closing Date Exchange Rate is 1.75 and the relevant Repayment Date Exchange Rate is 1.80 then the amount of cash from the Cash Payment required to repay all amounts due on such date will be $1,028.57. For the avoidance of doubt, the formula for such calculation, by way of example for this Section 1.08, equals ((180/1.75) -1)*$1000 = $28.57 additional dollars.
