the principal sum of US$125,000 (the "Principal Sum") on the Maturity Date or

not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice, for an amount equal to the
sum of the following: (i) the Principal Sum, and (ii) accrued and unpaid

volume-weighted average trading price of the Corporation’s Common Shares on the

principal amount thereof and on and after such date such Debentures shall only
bear interest if the Corporation shall default in the payment of the Redemption
Amount on the Redemption Date.  Upon surrender of any such Debentures for

Corporation in either cash or shares at the Conversion Price, at the sole
discretion of the Company.  In addition, and for greater certainty, until this
Debenture has been redeemed in accordance with this Section 2.2, the Holder

 Interest payable under this Debenture shall be paid on the last day of the
months of June and December of each year.  Except as provided herein, all
interest due on this Debenture will be payable by the Corporation, at its
election, in either cash or Debenture Shares valued at the Conversion Price.

Overdue Interest.  All interest payable hereunder on becoming overdue for longer
than a period of forty-five (45) days shall be forthwith treated, as to the
payment of interest thereon, as principal and thereafter shall bear interest
calculated at the same rate and in the same manner as if it were principal.
 Overdue interest shall be payable forthwith without demand by the Holder.  Any
interest amount added to the Principal Sum by operation of this section may only
be converted into Common Shares upon receipt of all regulatory approvals, if
required, which approvals may or may not be granted and if not granted, such
additional interest amount will only be payable in cash.

3.3

No Merger In Judgement.  The covenant of the Corporation to pay interest at the
rate provided herein shall not merge in any judgement in respect of any
obligation of the Corporation hereunder and such judgement shall bear interest
in the manner set out in this Article 3 and be payable on the same days when
interest (whether hereunder or otherwise) is payable hereunder.

ARTICLE IV
SERIES OF DEBENTURES

4.1

Series.  This Debenture is one of a series of like debentures except as to
Conversion Price and Issuance Date, as described in the accompanying
Subscription Agreement, of the Corporation issued and to be issued for securing
a principal sum not exceeding in the aggregate of US$625,000 all bearing
interest at the rate and in the manner provided in Articles 2 and 3 hereof.  All
Debentures of the said series are to rank pari passu without any preference or
priority one over another.

ARTICLE V
CONVERSION OF DEBENTURE

5.1

Conversion.  The Holder may, at its election, upon surrender (either in person,
by mail (postage prepaid) or other means of delivery) of this Debenture along
with a completed notice of conversion (the "Conversion Notice") in the form
attached hereto as Schedule "A" at the principal office of the Corporation in
Yuba City, California, USA at any time prior to the close of business on the
earlier of (a) the Redemption Date; and (b) the Maturity Date convert that
portion of the Principal Sum so surrendered into Debenture Shares (without
adjustment for interest accrued but unpaid hereon or for dividends on Common
Shares issuable upon conversion) ("Holder Conversion").  Debentures may be
converted on or prior to the Maturity Date or the Redemption Date, as the case
may be, at a conversion price equal to the Conversion Price per Debenture Share.
 The delivery of the Conversion Notice duly executed by the Holder and the
surrender of the Debenture shall be deemed to constitute a contract between the
Holder and the Corporation whereby (i) the Holder subscribes for the number of
Debenture Shares which he shall be entitled to receive upon such Holder
Conversion, (ii) the Holder releases the Corporation from all liability thereon
or from all liability with respect to the portion of the Principal Sum thereof
to be converted, as the case may be, and (iii) the Corporation agrees that the
surrender of the Debenture for Holder Conversion constitutes full payment of the
subscription price for the Debenture Shares issuable on such Holder Conversion
and that the Debenture Shares will be issued as fully paid and non-assessable
Common Shares in the capital of the Corporation.

As promptly as possible after receipt of the Conversion Notice and the Debenture
but subject to Section 5.4 hereto, the Corporation shall issue or cause to be
issued and deliver or cause to be delivered to the Holder a certificate or
certificates in the name or names of the person or persons specified in the
Conversion Notice for the number of Debenture Shares deliverable upon the Holder
Conversion. Upon completion of the conversion transaction, the rights of the
Holder to receive, in respect of the amount hereof so converted, the Principal
Sum and interest thereon, shall cease and the Holder or the other person or
persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for Common Shares
shall be deliverable upon such Holder Conversion shall be deemed to have become
on such date the holder or holders of record of such Common Shares represented
thereby.  Interest will be payable on the Principal Sum up to the date of Holder
Conversion.

5

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the event that only a portion of the Principal Sum is subject to Holder
Conversion, the Holder will be entitled to receive a replacement Debenture
representing the Principal Sum not subject to Holder Conversion on the same
terms and provisions contained herein.  In this event, interest shall continue
to be payable on the remainder of the Principal Sum.

5.2

Payment of Principal Sum and Interest in Common Shares.  Subject to receipt of
all regulatory approvals, if required:

(a)

the Holder will have the option to elect to convert the Principal Sum and all
accrued and unpaid interest due at the time of conversion into Debenture Shares,
instead of only converting the Principal Sum or portion thereof; and

(b)

the Corporation will have the right to elect to pay the Principal Sum and all
accrued and unpaid interest due at redemption or maturity of the Debentures
represented hereby in Debenture Shares in lieu of cash, provided that no Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing.  In order for the Corporation to
exercise such right, the Corporation shall provide the Holder with a notice of
its election thereof not more than 60 days and not less than 30 days from the
date fixed for redemption or maturity, as the case may be.  The issue price of
each Debenture Share issued in connection with an election pursuant to this
Section 5.2 shall be at the Conversion Price.

5.3

Adjustment.

(a)

If and whenever the Corporation shall (i) subdivide or redivide the outstanding
Common Shares into a greater number of Common Shares; (ii) reduce, combine or
consolidate the outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of Common
Shares; (iii) issue any Common Shares to the holders of all or substantially all
of the outstanding Common Shares by way of a stock dividend, the number of
Common Shares which may be acquired pursuant to this Article 5 on and at any
time after the effective date of such subdivision, redivision, reduction,
combination or consolidation or on the record date for such issue of Common
Shares by way of a stock dividend, as the case may be, shall be increased, in
the case of the events referred to in (i) and (iii) above, in the proportion
which the number of Common Shares outstanding before such subdivision,
redivision or dividend bears to the number of Common Shares outstanding after
such subdivision, redivision or dividend, or shall be decreased, in the case of
the events referred to in (ii) above, in the proportion which the number of
Common Shares outstanding before such reduction, combination, or consolidation
bears to the number of Common Shares outstanding after such reduction,
combination or consolidation and in each case the price at which the Holder
Conversion or Redemption shall occur will be adjusted to reflect the change in
the number of Debenture Shares that become issuable under this Article 5.  Any
issue of Common Shares by way of a stock dividend shall be deemed to have been
made on the record date fixed for such stock dividend for the purpose of
calculating the

6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

number of outstanding Common Shares under this Section 5.3(a) or Section 5.3(c).

(b)

In the case of any reclassification of, or other change in, the outstanding
Common Shares other than a subdivision, redivision, reduction, combination or
consolidation, the Holder shall be entitled to receive upon conversion pursuant
to Article 5, and shall accept in lieu of the number of Debenture Shares to
which it was theretofore entitled upon such conversion, the kind and amount of
shares and other securities or property which the Holder would have been
entitled to receive as a result of such reclassification if, on the effective
date thereof, it had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares
under the Debenture Shares to which it was theretofore entitled upon conversion.
 If necessary, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the application of the
provisions set forth in this Article 5 with respect to the rights and interests
thereafter of the Holder to the end that the provisions set forth in this
Article 5 shall thereafter correspondingly be made applicable as nearly as may
be possible in relation to any shares or other securities or property thereafter
deliverable upon the conversion of any Debenture.  Any such adjustments shall be
made by and set forth in a supplemental certificate approved by the directors of
the Corporation and shall for all purposes be conclusively deemed to be an
appropriate adjustment, after reasonable consultation with the Holder.

(c)

If and whenever the Corporation shall issue or distribute to all or
substantially all the holders of Common Shares (i) shares of the Corporation of
any class; (ii) rights, options or warrants (that shall not have expired
unexercised, unconverted or unexchanged at the time a Holder converts any
Debenture, in whole or in part); (iii) evidences of indebtedness; or (iv) any
other assets or securities and if such issuance or distribution does not result
in an adjustment as provided for in Section 5.3(a) or Section 5.3(b), the price
at which the Principal Amount may be converted into Common Shares pursuant to
Article 5 shall be adjusted effective immediately before the record date at
which the holders of Common Shares are determined for purposes of any such
issuance or distribution as aforesaid in such manner as the directors of the
Corporation determine to be appropriate on a basis consistent with this Section
5.3.

(d)

If, at any time, the Holder exercises its conversion rights before the record
date and before the occurrence of an event, for which this Section 5.3 requires
that an adjustment shall become effective immediately before the record date for
such event, the Corporation may defer issuing to the Holder the additional
Common Shares issuable upon such conversion, by reason of the adjustment
required by such event, until the occurrence of such event.  In the event of
such an adjustment, the Corporation shall deliver to the Holder an appropriate
instrument evidencing the Holder's right to receive such additional Debenture
Shares upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment and the right
to receive any

7

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
