EXHIBIT A

5    Conversion.

5.1 Voluntary Conversion. Any Noteholder of this Note has the right, at the
Noteholder’s option, at any time beginning forty-eight (48) hours after the date
of the Note, and prior to payment in full of the principal balance of this Note
at Maturity or any prepayment date, to convert this Note, in accordance with the
provisions of Section 5.2.1 hereof, in whole or in part, into fully paid and
nonassessable shares of common stock, $.001 par value per share, of the Company
(the “Common Stock”). The number of shares of Common Stock into which this Note
may be converted (“Conversion Shares”) shall be determined by dividing the
aggregate principal amount of the Note by the Conversion Price (as defined
below) in effect at the time of such conversion. The initial Conversion Price
shall be equal to nineteen cents ($0.19).

5.2 Conversion Procedure.

5.2.1 Notice of Conversion Pursuant to Section 5.1. Before the Noteholder shall
be entitled to voluntarily convert this Note into shares of Common Stock, it
shall surrender this Note at the office of the Company and shall give five day
advance written notice by mail, postage prepaid, to the Company at its principal
corporate office, of the election to convert the same pursuant to this Section
5.2, and shall state therein the name or names in which the certificate or
certificates for shares of Common Stock are to be issued. Unless waived by the
Company in its sole discretion, the minimum conversion amount accepted by the
Company for conversion hereunder shall be the lesser of: a $25,000 principal
balance on the Noteholder’s Note, or the remaining principal balance on the
Noteholder’s Note. The Company shall, as soon as practicable after the fifth day
from the date of the written notice, issue and deliver at such office to the
Noteholder of this Note a certificate or certificates for the number of shares
of Common Stock to which the Noteholder of this Note shall be entitled as
aforesaid. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made on the close of
business on the fifth day from the date of written notice, and the person or
persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such
conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of
such shares of Common Stock as of such date.

5.2.2 Delivery of Stock Certificates. As promptly as practicable after the
conversion of this Note, the Company at its expense will issue and deliver to
the Noteholder of this Note a certificate or certificates for the number of full
shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion.

5.3 Mechanics and Effect of Conversion. No fractional shares of Common Stock
shall be issued upon conversion of this Note. In lieu of the Company issuing any
fractional shares to the Noteholder upon the conversion of this Note, the
Company shall pay to the Noteholder the amount of outstanding principal that is
not so converted, such payment to be in the form as provided below. Upon the
conversion of this Note pursuant to Section 5.1 above, the Noteholder shall
surrender this Note, duly endorsed, at the principal office of the Company. At
its expense, the Company shall, as soon as practicable after the notice period,
issue and deliver to such Noteholder at such principal office a certificate or
certificates for the number of shares of such Common Stock to which the
Noteholder shall be entitled upon such conversion (bearing such legends as are
required hereby and by applicable state and federal securities laws in the
opinion of counsel to the Company), together with any other securities and
property to which the Noteholder is entitled upon such conversion under the
terms of this Note, including a check payable to the Noteholder for any cash
amounts payable as described above. Upon conversion of this Note and
irrespective of whether the Noteholder complies with its obligation under this
paragraph to surrender the endorsed Note to the Company, the Company shall be
forever released from all its obligations and liabilities under this Note,
except that the Company shall be obligated to pay the Noteholder, within thirty
(30) days after the date of such conversion, any interest accrued and unpaid to
and including the date of such conversion, and no more.

5.4 Conversion Price Adjustments.

5.4.1 Shares Issued for Less Than Conversion Price. If at any time or from time
to time prior to the Maturity Date, the Company sells any Common Stock or any
indebtedness, bonds, debentures, notes, preferred stock or similar equity
securities which are convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock at a price
less than the Conversion Price, the Conversion Price shall thereupon be reduced
to such lesser price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the
provisions of this Section 5.4 shall not apply to any such securities issued or
to be issued pursuant to (i) securities issued to employees, consultants,
officers or directors of the Company pursuant to any stock option, stock
purchase or stock bonus plan, agreement or arrangement approved by the Board of
Directors; (ii) securities issued pursuant to the acquisition of another
business entity or business segment of any such entity by the Company by merger,
purchase of substantially all of the assets or other reorganization whereby the
Company will own more than fifty (50%) of the voting power of such business
segment of any such entity; (iii) securities issued to vendors or customers or
to other persons in similar commercial situations with the Company if such
issuance is approved by the Board of Directors; (iv) securities issued in
corporate partnering transactions on terms approved by the Board of Directors;
(v) securities issued in accordance with the terms of any of the Company’s
preferred stock or warrants outstanding on the date hereof, if any; and (vi)
borrowings, direct or indirect, from financial institutions regularly engaged in
the business of lending money, whether or not presently authorized with an
equity component which is not a major component of such borrowing.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the provisions of this Section
5.4 shall not apply to the first $100,000 in proceeds received by the Company
from the sale of any Common Stock or any securities convertible into or
exercisable for Common Stock or similar equity securities sold in any successive
180-day period beginning on the date of this Note and continuing through the
Maturity Date. For example, to demonstrate the operation of the preceding
sentence, the Company may sell such equity securities and receive $100,000 in
the first 180-day period after the date of this Note, and after the expiration
of the first 180-day period may sell another $100,000 in such securities during
the succeeding 180-day period and the $200,000 in total proceeds received from
the sales in both such transactions shall not apply to and shall be exempt from
the operation of this Section 5.4.

5.5 Adjustments for Stock Splits and Subdivisions. In the event the Company
should at any time or from time to time after the date of issuance hereof fix a
record date for the effectuation of a split or subdivision of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock or the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled
to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of
Common Stock or other securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the
holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly, additional shares of Common
Stock (hereinafter referred to as “Common Stock Equivalents”) without payment of
any consideration by such holder for the additional shares of Common Stock or
the Common Stock Equivalents (including the additional shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof), then, as of such record date (or
the date of such dividend distribution, split or subdivision if no record date
is fixed), the Conversion Price of this Note shall be appropriately decreased so
that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note
shall be increased in proportion to such increase of outstanding shares.

5.6 Adjustment for Reverse Stock Splits. If the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding at any time after the date hereof is decreased by a combination of
the outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, following the record date of such
combination, the Conversion Price for this Note shall be appropriately increased
so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion hereof shall
be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares.
