12% SECURED CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE
DUE DECEMBER 1, 2000
THIS DEBENTURE is issued by XXXXXX.XXX, INC., a Delaware corporation
having a principal place of business at 0000 Xxxxxxx 00, Xxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxx
00000 (the "Company"), and is designated as the Company's 12% Secured
Convertible Debentures, due December 1, 2000 (the "Debentures").
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Company promises to pay to AJW PARTNERS, LLC, or
its registered assigns (the "Holder"), the principal sum of Fifty Thousand and
no/100 ($50,000.00) Dollars, on December 1, 2000 or such earlier date as the
Debentures are required or permitted to be repaid as provided hereunder (the
"Maturity Date") and to pay interest to the Holder on such principal sum at the
rate of 12% per annum, payable on a quarterly basis on March 31, June 30,
September 30 and December 31 of each year while such Debentures are outstanding
(each an "Interest Payment Date") and on each Conversion Date (as defined
herein) for such principal amount, commencing on the earlier to occur of a
Conversion Date for such principal amount and January 1, 2000, in cash or shares
of Common Stock (as defined in Section 7). Subject to the terms and conditions
herein, the decision whether to pay interest hereunder in Common Stock or cash
shall be at the discretion of the Company. Interest shall accrue daily
commencing on the Original Issue Date (as defined in Section 7) until payment in
full of the principal sum, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and
other amounts which may become due hereunder, has been made. Any interest not
paid on any Interest Payment Date shall continue to accrue and shall be due and
payable upon conversion of the Debentures. Interest hereunder will be paid to
the Person (as defined in Section 7) in whose name this Debenture is registered
on the records of the Company regarding registration and transfers of Debentures
(the "Debenture Register"). All overdue accrued and unpaid interest shall entail
a late fee at the rate of 15% per annum (to accrue daily, from the date such
interest is due hereunder through and including the date of payment), payable in
cash. Not less than ten (10) Trading Days (as defined in Section 7) prior to
Interest Payment Date, the Company shall provide the Holder notice of its
intention to pay interest in cash or shares of Common Stock (the Company may
indicate in such notice that the election contained in such notice shall
continue for later periods until revised). If interest is paid in shares of
Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on account of such
interest shall equal the cash amount of such interest on such Interest Payment
Date divided by the Conversion Price (as defined below) on such date.
Notwithstanding anything to contrary set forth herein, for purposes of
determining the number of shares of Common Stock that are issuable as payment of
interest hereunder, the Conversion Price shall not be subject to any Floor to
which the Conversion Price would otherwise be subject.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company may
not issue shares of Common Stock in payment of interest on the principal amount
if:
(i) the number of shares of Common Stock at the time authorized,
unissued and unreserved for all purposes, or held as treasury stock, is
insufficient to pay interest hereunder in shares of Common Stock;
(ii) after the Interest Effectiveness Date (as defined in Section 7)
such shares (x) are not registered for resale pursuant to an effective
Underlying Shares Regulation A Filing (as defined in Section 7) and (y) may not
be sold without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144(k) promulgated under
the Securities Act (as defined in Section 7), as determined by counsel to the
Company pursuant to a written opinion letter, addressed to the Company's
transfer agent in the form and substance acceptable to the applicable Holder and
such transfer agent (if the Company is permitted and elects to pay interest in
shares of Common Stock under this clause (ii) prior to the Interest
Effectiveness Date and thereafter an Underlying Shares Regulation A Filing shall
be declared effective by the Commission (as defined in Section 7), the Company
shall, within three (3) Trading Days after the date of such declaration of
effectiveness, exchange such shares for shares of Common Stock that are free of
restrictive legends of any kind)
(iii) such shares are not listed or quoted on either the Nasdaq
National Market ("NASDAQ") or on the New York Stock Exchange, American Stock
Exchange or the Nasdaq SmallCap Market or OTC Bulletin Board (each, a
"Subsequent Market");
(iv) the Company has failed to timely satisfy its conversion
obligations hereunder; or
(v) the issuance of such shares would result in a violation of
Section 4(a)(ii)(A).
This Debenture is subject to the following additional provisions:
Section 1. This Debenture is exchangeable for an equal aggregate
principal amount of Debentures of different authorized denominations, as
requested by the Holder surrendering the same. No service charge will be made
for such registration of transfer or exchange.
Section 2 Prior to due presentment to the Company for transfer of
this Debenture, the Company and any agent of the Company may treat the Person
(as defined in Section 7) in whose name this Debenture is duly registered on the
Debenture Register as the owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment as
herein provided and for all other purposes, whether or not this Debenture is
overdue, and neither the Company nor any such agent shall be affected by notice
to the contrary.

secured or evidenced any indebtedness of the Company in an amount

indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable prior to the date
on which it would otherwise become due and payable;
(v) the Common Stock shall be delisted from either the NASDAQ or a

Underlying Shares (as defined in Section 7));
(xi) an Underlying Shares Regulation A Filing shall not have been

(ix) an Event (as hereinafter defined) shall not have been cured to

Section 7) plus (ii) the product of (A) the number of Underlying Shares issued
in respect of conversions hereunder or as payment of interest hereunder, in
either case, within thirty (30) days of the date of a declaration of an Event of
Default and then held by the Holder and (B) the Per Share Market Value (as
defined in Section 7) on the date prepayment is due or the date the full
prepayment price is paid, whichever is greater. Interest shall accrue on the
prepayment amount hereunder from the seventh day after such amount is due (being
the date of an Event of Default) through the date of prepayment in full thereof
at the rate of 15% per annum. All Debentures and Underlying Shares for which the

provide and the Company hereby waives any presentment, demand, protest or other
notice of any kind, and the Holder may immediately and without expiration of any
grace period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all
other remedies available to it under applicable law. Such declaration may be
rescinded and annulled by Xxxxxx at any time prior to payment hereunder. No such
rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair
any right consequent thereon.
Section 4. Conversion.
(a) (i) Conversion at Option of Holder. This Debenture shall be
convertible into shares of Common Stock at the option of the Holder, in whole or
in part at any time and from time to time, after the Original Issue Date
(subject to the limitations on conversion set forth in Section 4(a)(ii) hereof).
The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion hereunder shall
be determined by dividing the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture to
be converted, plus all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, by the Conversion
Price. The Holder shall effect conversions by surrendering the Debentures (or
such portions thereof) to be converted, together with the form of conversion
notice attached hereto as Exhibit A (a "Conversion Notice") to the Company. Each
Conversion Notice shall specify the principal amount of Debentures to be
converted and the date on which such conversion is to be effected, which date
may not be prior to the date such Conversion Notice is deemed to have been
delivered hereunder (a "Conversion Date"). If no Conversion Date is specified in
a Conversion Notice, the Conversion Date shall be the date that such Conversion
Notice is deemed delivered hereunder. Subject to Section 4(b), each Conversion
Notice, once given, shall be irrevocable. If the Holder is converting less than
all of the principal amount represented by the Debenture(s) tendered by the
Holder with the Conversion Notice, or if a conversion hereunder cannot be
effected in full for any reason, the Company shall honor such conversion to the
extent permissible hereunder and shall promptly deliver to such Holder (in the
manner and within the time set forth in Section 4(b)) a new Debenture for such
principal amount as has not been converted.
(ii) Certain Conversion Restrictions
(A)(1) A Holder may not convert Debentures or receive shares
of Common Stock as payment of interest hereunder to the extent such conversion
or receipt of such interest payment would result in the Holder, together with
any affiliate thereof, beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with
Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (as defined in Section 7) and the rules
promulgated thereunder) in excess of 4.999% of the then issued and outstanding
shares of Common Stock, including shares issuable upon conversion of, and
payment of interest on, the Debentures held by such Holder after application of
this Section. The Holder shall have the sole authority and obligation to
determine whether the restriction contained in this Section applies and to the
extent that the Holder determines that the limitation contained in this Section
applies, the determination of which portion of the principal amount of
Debentures are convertible shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder. The
provisions of this Section may be waived by a Holder (but only as to itself and
not to any other Holder) upon not less than 5 days prior notice to the Company.
Other Holders shall be unaffected by any such waiver.
(2) A Holder may not convert Debentures or receive
shares of Common Stock as payment of interest hereunder to the extent such
conversion or receipt of such interest payment would result in the Holder,
together with any affiliate thereof, beneficially owning (as determined in
accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated
thereunder) in excess of 9.999% of the then issued and outstanding shares of
Common Stock, including shares issuable upon conversion of, and payment of
interest on, the Debentures held by such Holder after application of this
Section. The Holder shall have the sole authority and obligation to determine
whether the restriction contained in this Section applies and to the extent that
the Holder determines that the limitation contained in this Section applies, the
determination of which portion of the principal amount of Debentures are
convertible shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder. The provisions of
this Section may be waived by a Holder (but only as to itself and not to any
other Holder) upon not less than 15 days prior notice to the Company. Other
Holders shall be unaffected by any such waiver.
(B) If the Common Stock is then listed for trading on the
NASDAQ or the Nasdaq SmallCap Market and the Company has not obtained the
Shareholder Approval (as defined below), then the Company may not issue in
excess of [ ] shares of Common Stock upon conversions of Debentures or as
payment of interest thereon in shares of Common Stock, which number shall be
subject to adjustment pursuant to Sections 4(c)(ii), (iii), (v), (vi) and (x)
(such number of shares, the "Issuable Maximum"). The Issuable Maximum equals
19.999% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to
the closing of transactions set forth in the Purchase Agreement. If on any
Conversion Date (A) the Common Stock is listed for trading on the NASDAQ or the
Nasdaq SmallCap Market, (B) the Conversion Price then in effect is such that the
aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that would then be issuable upon
conversion in full of all then outstanding Debentures and as payment of interest
thereon in shares of Common Stock, together with any shares of Common Stock
previously issued upon conversion of Debentures and as payment of interest
thereon, would exceed Issuable Maximum, and (C) the Company shall not have
previously obtained the vote of shareholders (the "Shareholder Approval"), if
any, as may be required by the applicable rules and regulations of the Nasdaq
Stock Market (or any successor entity) applicable to approve the issuance of
shares of Common Stock in excess of the Issuable Maximum pursuant to the terms
hereof, then the Company shall issue to the Holder so requesting a conversion a
number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Issuable Maximum and, with respect
to the remainder of the principal amount of Debentures then held by such Holder
for which a conversion in accordance with the Conversion Price would result in
an issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Issuable Maximum (the
"Excess Principal"), the converting Holder shall have the option to require the
Company to either (1) use its best efforts to obtain the Shareholder Approval
applicable to such issuance as soon as is possible, but in any event not later
than the 75th day after such request, or (2) pay cash to the converting Holder
in an amount equal to the Optional Prepayment Amount for the Excess Principal.
If the Company fails to pay the Optional Prepayment Amount in full pursuant to
this Section, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 15% per annum
to the converting Holder, accruing daily from the Conversion Date until such
amount, plus all such interest thereon, is paid in full.
(b) (i) Not later than five (5) Trading Days after any Conversion
Date, the Company will deliver to the Holder (i) a certificate or certificates
which shall be free of restrictive legends and trading restrictions representing
the number of shares of Common Stock being acquired upon the conversion of
Debentures (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 4(a)(ii) hereof),
(ii) Debentures in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of
Debentures
not converted, (iii) a bank check in the amount of accrued and unpaid interest
(if the Company has elected or is required to pay accrued interest in cash), and
(iv) if the Company has elected and is permitted hereunder to pay accrued
interest in shares of Common Stock, certificates, which shall be free of
restrictive legends and trading restrictions (other than those required by
Section 3.1 (b) of the Purchase Agreement), representing such shares of Common
Stock; provided, that the Company shall not be obligated to issue certificates
evidencing the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the principal
amount of Debentures until Debentures are delivered for conversion to the
Company, or the Holder notifies the Company that such Debentures have been lost,
stolen or destroyed and provides a bond (or other adequate security) reasonably
satisfactory to the Company to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by
it in connection therewith. The Company shall, upon request of the Holder, if
available, use its best efforts to deliver any certificate or certificates
required to be delivered by the Company under this Section electronically
through the Depository Trust Corporation or another established clearing
corporation performing similar functions. If in the case of any Conversion
Notice such certificate or certificates, including for purposes hereof, any
shares of Common Stock to be issued on the Conversion Date on account of accrued
but unpaid interest hereunder, are not delivered to or as directed by the
applicable Holder by the third (3rd) Trading Day after the Conversion Date, the
Holder shall be entitled by written notice to the Company at any time on or
before its receipt of such certificate or certificates thereafter, to rescind
such conversion, in which event the Company shall immediately return the
certificates representing the principal amount of Debentures tendered for
conversion.
(ii) If the Company fails to deliver to the Holder such
certificate or certificates pursuant to Section 4(b)(i), including for purposes
hereof, any shares of Common Stock to be issued on the Conversion Date on
account of accrued but unpaid interest hereunder, by the fifth (5th) Trading Day
after the Conversion Date, the Company shall pay to such Holder, in cash, as
liquidated damages and not as a penalty, $250.00 for each Trading Day after such
fifth (5th) Trading Day until such certificates are delivered. Nothing herein
shall limit a Holder's right to pursue actual damages for the Company's failure
to deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon conversion
within the period specified herein and such Holder shall have the right to
pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without
limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief. The
exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit the Holders from seeking to
enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law.
Further, if the Company shall not have delivered any cash due in respect of
conversions of Debentures or as payment of interest thereon by the fifth (5th)
Trading Day after the Conversion Date, the Holder may, by notice to the Company,
require the Company to issue shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 4(c),
except that for such purpose the Conversion Price applicable thereto shall be
the lesser of the Conversion Price on the Conversion Date and the Conversion
Price on the date of such Holder demand. Any such shares will be subject to the
provision of this Section.
(iii) In addition to any other rights available to the Holder,
if the Company fails to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates
pursuant to Section 4(b)(i), including for purposes hereof, any shares of Common
Stock to be issued on the Conversion Date on account of accrued but unpaid
interest hereunder, by the fifth (5th) Trading Day after the Conversion Date,
and if after such fifth (5th) Trading Day the Holder purchases (in an open
market transaction or otherwise) Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a
sale by such Holder of the Underlying Shares which the Holder anticipated
receiving upon such conversion (a "Buy-In"), then the Company shall (A) pay in
cash to the Holder (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by the
Holder) the amount by which (x) the Holder's total purchase price (including
brokerage commissions, if any) for the Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the
product of (1) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that such Holder
anticipated receiving from the conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the market
price of the Common Stock at the time of the sale giving rise to such purchase
obligation and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reissue Debentures in
principal amount equal the principal amount of the attempted conversion or
deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been
issued had the Company timely complied with its delivery requirements under
Section 4(b)(i). For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a
total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted
conversion of Debentures with respect to which the market price of the
Underlying Shares on the date of conversion was a total of $10,000 under clause
(A) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall be required to pay
the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice
indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if a Holder requires
the Company to make payment in respect of a Buy-In for the failure to timely
deliver certificates hereunder and the Company timely pays
in full such payment, the Company shall not be required to pay such Holder
liquidated damages under Section 4(b)(ii) in respect of the certificates
resulting in such Buy-In.
(c) (i) The conversion price (the "Conversion Price") in effect on
any Conversion Date shall be 50% of the average of the bid price during the
twenty (20) Trading Days immediately preceding the applicable Conversion Date,
provided, that such twenty (20) Trading Day period shall be extended for the
number of Trading Days during such period in which (A) trading in the Common
Stock is suspended by the NASDAQ or a Subsequent Market on which the Common
Stock is then listed, or (B) after the date declared effective by the
Commission, the Underlying Shares Regulation A Filing is not effective, or (C)
after the date declared effective by the Commission, the Prospectus included in
the Underlying Shares Regulation A Filing may not be used by the Holder for the
resale of Underlying Shares. If (a) an Underlying Shares Regulation A Filing is
not filed on or prior to the Filing Date (as defined under the Registration
Rights Agreement) (if the Company files such Underlying Shares Regulation A
Filing without affording the Holder the opportunity to review and comment on the
same as required by Section 3(a) of the Registration Rights Agreement, the
Company shall not be deemed to have satisfied this clause (a)), or (b) the
Company fails to file with the Commission a request for acceleration in
accordance with Rule 12d1-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act, within five (5)
days of the date that the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever
is earlier) by the Commission that an Underlying Shares Regulation A Filing will
not be "reviewed," or not subject to further review, or (c) the Underlying
Shares Regulation A Filing is not declared effective by the Commission on or
prior to the Effectiveness Date, or (d) such Underlying Shares Regulation A
Filing is filed with and declared effective by the Commission but thereafter
ceases to be effective as to all Registrable Securities at any time prior to the
expiration of the Effectiveness Period (as defined in the Registration Rights
Agreement), without being succeeded within ten (10) days by an amendment to such
Underlying Shares Regulation A Filing or by a subsequent Underlying Shares
Regulation A Filing filed with and declared effective by the Commission, or (e)
the Common Stock shall be delisted or suspended from trading on the NASDAQ or on
any Subsequent Market for more than three (3) Business Days (which need not be
consecutive days), (f) the conversion rights of the Holders are suspended for
any reason or (g) an amendment to the Underlying Shares Regulation A Filing is
not filed by the Company with the Commission within ten (10) days of the
Commission's notifying the Company that such amendment is required in order for
the Underlying Shares Regulation A Filing to be declared effective (any such
failure or breach being referred to as an "Event," and for purposes of clauses
(a), (c), (f) the date on which such Event occurs, or for purposes of clause (b)
the date on which such five (5) day period is exceeded, or for purposes of
clauses (d) and (g) the date which such 10 day-period is exceeded, or for
purposes of clause (e) the date on which such three (3) Business Day-period is
exceeded, being referred to as "Event Date"), then, on the Event Date and on
each monthly anniversary thereof until such time as the applicable Event is
cured, the Company shall pay to the Holder 2.5% of the aggregate principal
amount of the Debentures then outstanding in cash, as liquidated damages and not
as penalty. The provisions of this Section are not exclusive and shall in no way
limit the Company's obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement.
(ii) If the Company, at any time while any Debentures are
outstanding, (a) shall pay a stock dividend or otherwise make a distribution or
distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity
equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock, (b) subdivide
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (c) combine
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (d) issue
by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of
the Company, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of
which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding
treasury shares, if any) outstanding before such event and of which the
denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding after such
event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective
immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled
to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately
after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or
re-classification.
(iii) INTENTIONALLY OMITTED
(iv) If the Company or any subsidiary thereof, as applicable
with respect to Common Stock Equivalents (as defined below), at any time while
Debentures are outstanding, shall issue shares of Common Stock
or rights, warrants, options or other securities or debt that is convertible
into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock ("Common Stock Equivalents")
entitling any Person to acquire shares of Common Stock at a price per share less
than the Conversion Price, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a
fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such shares of Common Stock or
such Common Stock Equivalents plus the number of shares of Common Stock which
the offering price for such shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents
would purchase at the Conversion Price, and the denominator of which shall be
the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to
such issuance plus the number of shares of Common Stock so issued or issuable,
provided, that for purposes hereof, all shares of Common Stock that are issuable
upon conversion, exercise or exchange of Common Stock Equivalents shall be
deemed outstanding immediately after the issuance of such Common Stock
Equivalents. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such shares of Common Stock
or Common Stock Equivalents are issued.
(v) INTENTIONALLY OMITTED
(vi) In case of any reclassification of the Common Stock or
any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is converted
into other securities, cash or property, the Holders shall have the right
thereafter to, at their option, (A) convert the then outstanding principal
amount, together with all accrued but unpaid interest and any other amounts then
owing hereunder in respect of this Debenture only into the shares of stock and
other securities, cash and property receivable upon or deemed to be held by
holders of the Common Stock following such reclassification or share exchange,
and the Holders of the Debentures shall be entitled upon such event to receive
such amount of securities, cash or property as the shares of the Common Stock of
the Company into which the then outstanding principal amount, together with all
accrued but unpaid interest and any other amounts then owing hereunder in
respect of this Debenture could have been converted immediately prior to such
reclassification or share exchange would have been entitled or (B) require the
Company to prepay the aggregate of its outstanding principal amount of
Debentures, plus all interest and other amounts due and payable thereon, at a
price determined in accordance with Section 3(b). The entire prepayment price
shall be paid in cash. This provision shall similarly apply to successive

reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange;
provided, however, that the failure to mail such notice or any defect therein or
in the mailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action
required to be specified in such notice. Holders are entitled to convert
Debentures during the 20-day period commencing the date of such notice to the
effective date of the event triggering such notice.
(x) In case of any (1) merger or consolidation of the Company
with or into another Person that would constitute a Change of Control
Transaction, or (2) sale by the Company of more than one-half of the assets of
the Company (on an as valued basis) in one or a series of related transactions,
or (3) tender or other offer or exchange (whether by the Company or another
Person) pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or
exchange their shares for other securities, stock, cash or property of the
Company or another Person; then a Holder shall have the right to (A) if
permitted under Section 3(b) hereof, exercise its rights of prepayment under
Section 3(b) with respect to such event, (B) convert its aggregate principal
amount of Debentures then outstanding into the shares of stock and other
securities, cash and property receivable upon or deemed to be held by holders of
Common Stock following such merger, consolidation or sale, and such Holder shall
be entitled upon such event or series of related events to receive such amount
of securities, cash and property as the shares of Common Stock into which such
aggregate principal amount of Debentures could have been converted immediately
prior to such merger, consolidation or sales would have been entitled, (C) in
the case of a merger or consolidation, (x) require the surviving entity to issue
shares of convertible preferred stock or convertible debentures with such
aggregate stated value or in such face amount, as the case may be, equal to the
aggregate principal amount of Debentures then held by such Holder, plus all
accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts owing thereon, which newly issued
shares of preferred stock or debentures shall have terms identical (including
with respect to conversion) to the terms of this Debenture (except, in the case
of preferred stock, as may be required to reflect the differences between equity
and debt) and shall be entitled to all of the rights and privileges of a Holder
of Debentures set forth herein and the agreements pursuant to which the
Debentures were issued (including, without limitation, as such rights relate to
the acquisition, transferability, registration and listing of such shares of
stock other securities issuable upon conversion thereof), and (y) simultaneously
with the issuance of such convertible preferred stock or convertible debentures,
shall have the right to convert such instrument only into shares of stock and
other securities, cash and property receivable upon or deemed to be held by
holders of Common Stock following such merger or consolidation, or (D) in the
event of an exchange or tender offer or other transaction contemplated by clause
(3) of this Section, tender or exchange its aggregate principal amount of
Debentures for such securities, stock, cash and other property receivable upon
or deemed to be held by holders of Common Stock that have tendered or exchanged
their shares of Common Stock following such tender or exchange, and such Holder
shall be entitled upon such exchange or tender to receive such amount of
securities, cash and property as the shares of Common Stock into which such
aggregate principal amount of Debentures could have been converted (taking into
account all then accrued and unpaid dividends) immediately prior to such tender
or exchange would have been entitled as would have been issued. In the case of
clause (C), the conversion price applicable for the newly issued shares of
convertible preferred stock or convertible debentures shall be based upon the
amount of securities, cash and property that each share of Common Stock would
receive in such transaction and the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior
to the effectiveness or closing date for such transaction. The terms of any such
merger, sale, consolidation, tender or exchange shall include such terms so as
continue to give the Holders of Debentures the right to receive the securities,
cash and property set forth in this Section upon any conversion or redemption
following such event. This provision shall similarly apply to successive such
events.
(d) The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep
available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock solely for

interest on the Debentures, each as herein provided, free from preemptive rights
or any other actual contingent purchase rights of persons other than the
Holders, not less than such number of shares of the Common Stock as shall
(subject to any additional requirements of the Company as to reservation of such
shares set forth in the Purchase Agreement) be issuable (taking into account the
adjustments and restrictions of Section 4(b)) upon the conversion of the
outstanding principal amount of the Debentures and payment of interest
hereunder. The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be
so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully
paid, nonassessable and, if the Underlying Shares Regulation A Filing has been
declared effective under the Securities Act, registered for public sale in
accordance with such Underlying Shares Regulation A Filing.
(e) Upon a conversion hereunder the Company shall not be required to
issue stock certificates representing fractions of shares of the Common Stock,
but may if otherwise permitted, make a cash payment in respect of any final
fraction of a share based on the Per Share Market Value at such time. If the
Company elects not, or is unable, to make such a cash payment, the Holder shall
be entitled to receive, in lieu of the final fraction of a share, one whole
share of Common Stock.
(f) The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on
conversion of the Debentures shall be made without charge to the Holders thereof
for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the
issue or delivery of such certificate, provided that the Company shall not be
required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved
in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name
other than that of the Holder of such Debentures so converted and the Company
shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the
person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company
the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the
Company that such tax has been paid.
(g) Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries to be
provided by the Holders of the Debentures hereunder, including, without
limitation, any Conversion Notice, shall be in writing and delivered personally,

the Debentures at the facsimile telephone number or address of such Holder
appearing on the books of the Company, or if no such facsimile telephone number
or address appears, at the principal place of business of the holder. Any notice
or other communication or deliveries hereunder shall be deemed given and

communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile telephone number
specified in this Section prior to 8:00 p.m. (New York City time), (ii) the date

Section 5. Optional Prepayment.
(a) The Company shall have the right, exercisable at any time upon
twenty (20) Trading Days prior written notice to the Holders of the Debentures
to be prepaid and accompanied by any waiver required by holders of senior
indebtedness of the Company for such prepayment (the "Optional Prepayment
Notice"), to prepay, all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of
the Debentures which have not previously been repaid or for which Conversion
Notices have not previously been delivered. The prepayment price applicable to
such prepayments shall equal the Optional Prepayment Price (as defined in
Section 7) and shall be paid in cash. Any such prepayment shall be free of any
claim of subordination. The Holders shall have the right to tender, and the
Company shall honor, Conversion Notices delivered prior to the expiration of the
twentieth (20th) Trading Day after receipt by the Holders of an Optional
Prepayment Notice for such Debentures (the 20th Trading Day after receipt by the
Holders of an Optional Prepayment Notice is referred to herein as the "Optional
Prepayment Date").
(b) If any portion of the Optional Prepayment Price shall not be
paid by the Company by the second (2nd) Business Day following the Optional
Prepayment Date, the Optional Prepayment Price shall be increased by 15% per
annum (to accrue daily) until paid (which amount shall be paid as liquidated
damages and not as a penalty). In addition, if any portion of the optional
Prepayment Price remains unpaid through the expiration of the Optional
Prepayment Date, the Holder subject to such prepayment may elect by written
notice to the Company to either (x)
demand conversion in accordance with the formula and the time period therefor
set forth in Section 4 of any portion of the principal amount of Debentures for
which the Optional Prepayment Price, plus accrued liquidated damages thereof,
has not been paid in full (the "Unpaid Prepayment Principal Amount"), in which
event the applicable Per Share Market Value shall be the lower of the Per Share
Market Value calculated on the Optional Prepayment Date and the Per Share Market
Value as of the Holder's written demand for conversion, or (y) invalidate ab
initio such optional redemption, notwithstanding anything herein contained to
the contrary. If the Holder elects option (x) above, the Company shall within
three (3) Trading Days such election is deemed delivered hereunder to the Holder
the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Unpaid Prepayment
Principal Amount subject to such conversion demand and otherwise perform its
obligations hereunder with respect thereto; or, if the Holder elects option (y)
above, the Company shall promptly, and in any event not later than three (3)
Trading Days from receipt of notice of such election, return to the Holder new
Debentures for the full Unpaid Prepayment Principal Amount. If, upon an election
under option (x) above, the Company fails to deliver the shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of the Unpaid Prepayment Principal Amount within the
time period set forth in this Section, the Company shall pay to the Holder in
cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, $2,500 per day until the
Company delivers such Common Stock to the Holder.
