     Section 2. Interest.

unconverted and then-outstanding principal amount of this Debenture at the rate of 10.75%
per annum, payable semiannually on January 1 and July 1, in arrears, beginning on the first
such date after the Original Issue Date, on each Conversion Date (as to that principal
amount then being converted), on each Company Optional Redemption Date or Holder Optional
Redemption Date (as to that principal amount then being redeemed) and on the Maturity Date
(each such date, an “Interest Payment Date”) (if any Interest



8









 







Payment Date is not a Business Day, then the applicable payment shall be due on the
next succeeding Business Day), in cash.




     b) Interest Calculations. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a
360-day year, consisting of twelve 30 calendar-day periods and shall accrue daily commencing
on the Original Issue Date until payment in full of the outstanding principal, together with
all accrued and unpaid interest, liquidated damages and other amounts which may become due
hereunder, has been made. Interest hereunder will be paid to the Person in whose name this
Debenture is registered on the records of the Company regarding registration and transfers
of this Debenture (the “Debenture Register”).




     c) Interest Make-Whole. Upon any conversion or redemption (other than pursuant
to a Holder Optional Redemption) of all or any portion of this Debenture prior to the third
anniversary of the Original Issue Date, the Holder shall be entitled to receive the present
value of all interest which would have accrued on the principal amount being converted or
redeemed after the date of such conversion or redemption if no payment of such principal
amount were made prior to such third anniversary of the Original Issue Date, in cash (the
“Interest Make-Whole”). The present value of such future-accrued interest shall be
calculated by discounting in accordance with accepted financial practice all such
future-accruing interest on the principal amount being converted or redeemed from their
respective scheduled due dates to the date on which payment on such principal is to be made
by the yield-to-maturity interest rate for United States Treasury bills of comparable
maturity to the third anniversary of the Original Issue Date as of the applicable conversion
date or redemption date, as applicable, as reported in The Wall Street Journal.




     d) Calculation of Interest Make-Whole Shares. Amounts due under Section 2(c)
(other than in connection with the payment of any Change in Control Redemption Price and any
Mandatory Default Amount) may, at the option of the Company, be made in registered shares of
Common Stock of the Company upon irrevocable notice to holders no less than two (2) trading
days prior to the start of the Make-Whole Measurement Period, subject to satisfaction of the
conditions in the immediately following sentence. Payment in shares of Common Stock
pursuant to this Section 2(d) may only occur if each of the Equity Conditions shall have
been met (unless waived in writing by the Holder) on each Trading Day during the Make-Whole
Measurement Period and through and including the date such shares are issued to the Holder.
When making any payment under Section 2(c) using common stock of the Company, the value of
each such share of stock shall be determined based on ninety percent (90%) of the lower of
the (i) VWAP for such stock for the ten (10) Trading Days immediately prior to
the date such payment is due pursuant to Section 2(c) (“Make-Whole Measurement
Period”), and (ii) the closing price of the stock on the day immediately preceding the
conversion date or redemption date, as applicable; provided, that until and unless the
Company has received any approval of its stockholders required under Amex Rule 713 or any
equivalent rule of any other applicable Trading Market, the value of such shares used in
such determination may



9









 







not be less than the closing price of the Common Stock on AMEX or such other applicable
Trading Market on the execution date of the Purchase Agreement. In the event that the
Company has not received the necessary approval under AMEX Rule 713 or any equivalent rule
of any other applicable Trading Market, then such payment will be made in cash pursuant to
Section 2(c).




     e) Late Fee. All overdue accrued and unpaid interest to be paid hereunder
shall entail a late fee on such unpaid interest (and not on the entire principal amount) at
an interest rate equal to the lesser of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted by
applicable law (the “Late Fees”) which shall accrue daily from the date such
interest is due hereunder through and including the date of actual payment in full. In
addition, subject to Section 8, if the Company does not meet the current public information
requirements as in effect under Rule 144 as they may exist from time to time in respect of
the Conversion Shares and the Holder cannot freely resell the Conversion Shares on a Trading
Market pursuant to Rule 144 for a period of 3 months (a “Public Information
Failure”), then, as of the first day following such Public Information Failure, interest
on this Debenture shall accrue at an interest rate equal to 12% per annum until such date as
the Company satisfies the current public information requirements under Rule 144 such that
the Holder is able to freely resell all the Conversion Shares on a Trading Market.




     f) Increase in Interest Rate for Failure of Debenture or Exchanged Debenture to be
DTC Eligible. In the event the Company fails to exchange this Debenture for an
Exchanged Debenture that is DTC Eligible within 120 days from the Original Issue Date, then
on the 121st day the rate of interest payable to the Holder shall increase to
11.75% per annum until such time as the Holder has received an Exchanged Debenture that is
DTC Eligible, at which time the rate of interest payable to the Holder shall return to
10.75% per annum.




     g) Prepayment. Except as otherwise set forth in this Debenture, the Company
may not prepay any portion of the principal amount of this Debenture without the prior
written consent of the Holder.



     Section 3. Registration of Transfers and Exchanges; Other Exchanges.




     a) Different Denominations. 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 payable for such
registration of transfer or exchange.




     b) Investment Representations. This Debenture has been issued subject to
certain investment representations of the original Holder set forth in the Purchase
Agreement and may be transferred or exchanged only in compliance with the Purchase Agreement
and applicable federal and state securities laws and regulations.



10









 






     c) Reliance on Debenture Register. Prior to due presentment for transfer to the
Company of this Debenture, the Company and any agent of the Company may treat the Person 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.




     d) Exchange for DTC Eligible Debenture. The Company shall exchange and retire
this Debenture for an Exchanged Debenture upon the completion of all necessary documentation
to create the Exchanged Debenture and presentation of this Debenture to the Company by the
Holder.



     Section 4. Conversion.




     a) Voluntary Conversion. At any time after the Original Issue Date until this
Debenture is no longer outstanding, the principal amount of this Debenture shall be
convertible, in whole or in part, into shares of Common Stock at the option of the Holder,
at any time and from time to time (subject to the conversion limitations set forth in
Section 4(c) hereof). The Holder shall effect conversions by delivering to the Company a
Notice of Conversion, the form of which is attached hereto as Annex A (each, a
“Notice of Conversion”), specifying therein the principal amount of this Debenture
to be converted and the date on which such conversion shall be effected (such date, the
“Conversion Date”). If no Conversion Date is specified in a Notice of Conversion,
the Conversion Date shall be the date that such Notice of Conversion is deemed delivered
hereunder. To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically
surrender this Debenture to the Company unless the entire principal amount of this Debenture
has been so converted, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon has been paid.
Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding principal amount of
this Debenture in an amount equal to the applicable conversion. The Holder and the Company
shall maintain records showing the principal amount(s) converted and the date of such
conversion(s). The Company may deliver a valid objection to any Notice of Conversion
promptly but in any event within 3 Business Days of delivery of such Notice of Conversion.
Absent manifest error, the Holder’s records showing the principal amount(s) converted and
the date of such conversion(s) shall be determinative. The Holder, and any assignee by
acceptance of this Debenture, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of
this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Debenture, the unpaid and
unconverted principal amount of this Debenture may be less than the amount stated on the
face hereof.




     b) Conversion Price. The conversion price in effect on any Conversion Date
shall be equal to $6.50, subject to adjustment herein (the “Conversion Price”).



11









 






     c) Conversion Limitations. The Company shall not effect any conversion of
this Debenture, and a Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this
Debenture, to the extent that after giving effect to the conversion set forth on the
applicable Notice of Conversion, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any
other person or entity acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s
Affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as
defined below).  For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common
Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of shares
of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Debenture with respect to which such
determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which
are issuable upon (A) conversion of the remaining, unconverted principal amount of this
Debenture beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates and (B) exercise or
conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company
subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained
herein (including, without limitation, any other Debentures) beneficially owned by the
Holder or any of its Affiliates.  Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for
purposes of this Section 4(c), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with
Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. To
the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 4(c) applies, the determination of
whether this Debenture is convertible (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder
together with any Affiliates) and of which principal amount of this Debenture is convertible
shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Conversion
shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Debenture may be converted
(in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates) and which
principal amount of this Debenture is convertible, in each case subject to the Beneficial
Ownership Limitation. To ensure compliance with this restriction, the Holder will be deemed
to represent to the Company each time it delivers a Notice of Conversion that such Notice of
Conversion has not violated the restrictions set forth in this paragraph and the Company
shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In
addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined
in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 4(c), in determining the number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares
of Common Stock as stated in the most recent of the following: (A) the Company’s most recent
periodic or annual report, as the case may be; (B) a more recent public announcement by the
Company; or (C) a more recent notice by the Company or the Company’s transfer agent setting
forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of
a Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the
Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding.  In any case, the number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion
or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Debenture, by the Holder or its
Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was
reported.



12









 







The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of
the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Debenture held by the Holder. The Holder,
upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the
Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 4(c), provided that the
Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the
Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common
Stock upon conversion of this Debenture held by the Holder and the Beneficial Ownership
Limitation provisions of this Section 4(c) shall continue to apply. Any such increase or
decrease will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered
to the Company. The Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this paragraph shall be
construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of
this Section 4(c) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective
or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation contained herein or to
make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such
limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of
this Debenture.




     d) Mechanics of Conversion.




     i. Conversion Shares Issuable Upon Conversion of Principal Amount. The
number of Conversion Shares issuable upon a conversion hereunder shall be equal to
the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding principal amount of this
Debenture to be converted by (y) the Conversion Price.




     ii. Delivery of Certificate Upon Conversion. Not later than three
Trading Days after each Conversion Date (the “Share Delivery Date”), the
Company shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Holder (A) a certificate or
certificates representing the Conversion Shares which, on or after the earlier of
(i) the six month anniversary of the Original Issue Date (unless the Holder is then
an Affiliate of the Company) and (ii) the Effective Date, shall be free of
restrictive legends and trading restrictions (other than those which may then be
required by the Purchase Agreement) representing the number of Conversion Shares
being acquired upon the conversion of this Debenture, (B) a bank check or wire of
immediately available funds, at the Company’s option, in the amount of accrued and
unpaid interest, and (C) as to Conversion Dates that occur prior to the three year
anniversary of the Original Issue Date, a bank check or wire transfer in the amount
equal to the Interest Make-Whole. On or after the earlier of (i) the six month
anniversary of the Original Issue Date and (ii) the Effective Date, the Company
shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to deliver any certificate or
certificates required to be delivered by the Company under this Section 4(d)
electronically through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing
corporation performing similar functions.




      



13









 






     iii. Failure to Deliver Certificates. If in the case of any Notice of
Conversion such certificate or certificates are not delivered to or as directed by
the applicable Holder by the third Trading Day after the Conversion Date, the Holder
shall be entitled to elect by written notice to the Company at any time on or before
its receipt of such certificate or certificates, to rescind such Conversion, in
which event the Company shall promptly return to the Holder any original Debenture
delivered to the Company and the Holder shall promptly return to the Company the
Common Stock certificates representing the principal amount of this Debenture
unsuccessfully tendered for conversion to the Company.




     iv. Obligation Absolute; Partial Liquidated Damages. The Company’s
obligations to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion of this
Debenture in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional,
irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver
or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment
against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim,
recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder
or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged
violation of law by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other
circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the
Holder in connection with the issuance of such Conversion Shares; provided,
however, that such delivery shall not operate as a waiver by the Company of
any such action the Company may have against the Holder. In the event the Holder of
this Debenture shall elect to convert any or all of the outstanding principal amount
hereof, the Company may not refuse conversion based on any claim that the Holder or
anyone associated or affiliated with the Holder has been engaged in any violation of
law, agreement or for any other reason, unless an injunction from a court, on notice
to Holder, restraining and or enjoining conversion of all or part of this Debenture
shall have been sought and obtained and the Company posts a surety bond for the
benefit of the Holder in the amount of 150% of the outstanding principal amount of
this Debenture, which is subject to the injunction, which bond shall remain in
effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the underlying dispute and
the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Holder to the extent it obtains
judgment. In the absence of such injunction, the Company shall issue Conversion
Shares or, if applicable, cash, upon a properly noticed conversion. If the Company
fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates
pursuant to Section 4(d)(ii) by the third Trading Day after the Conversion Date, the
Company shall pay to such Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a
penalty, for each $1,000 of principal amount being converted, $10 per Trading Day
(increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after such liquidated
damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such third Trading Day until
such certificates are delivered. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to
pursue actual damages or declare an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8 hereof
for the



14









 







Company’s failure to deliver Conversion Shares within the period specified
herein and the Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it
hereunder, 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 Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section
hereof or under applicable law.




     v. Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon
Conversion. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the
Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate or
certificates by the Share Delivery Date pursuant to Section 4(d)(ii), and if after
such Share Delivery Date the Holder is required by its brokerage firm to purchase
(in an open market transaction or otherwise), or the Holder or its brokerage firm
otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by
the Holder of the Conversion Shares which the Holder was entitled to receive upon
the conversion relating to such Share Delivery Date (a “Buy-In”), then the
Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder (in addition to any other remedies
available to or elected by the Holder) the amount by which (x) the Holder’s total
purchase price (including any brokerage commissions) for the Common Stock so
purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1) the aggregate number of shares of Common
Stock that the Holder was entitled to receive from the conversion at issue
multiplied by (2) the actual sale price at which the sell order giving rise to such
purchase obligation was executed (including any brokerage commissions) and (B) at
the option of the Holder, either reissue (if surrendered) this Debenture in a
principal amount equal to the principal amount of the attempted conversion or
deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been
issued if the Company had timely complied with its delivery requirements under
Section 4(d)(ii). 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 this Debenture with respect to which the actual sale price of the Conversion
Shares (including any brokerage commissions) giving rise to such purchase obligation
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 and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss.
Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available
to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of
specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure
to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon conversion
of this Debenture as required pursuant to the terms hereof.




     vi. Reservation of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion. The Company
covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized



15









 








and unissued shares of Common Stock for the sole purpose of issuance upon
conversion of this Debenture, as herein provided, free from preemptive rights or any
other actual contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the Holder (and the
other holders of the Debentures), not less than such aggregate number of shares of
the Common Stock as shall (subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the
Purchase Agreement) be issuable (taking into account the adjustments and
restrictions of Section 5) upon the conversion of the outstanding principal amount
of this Debenture. The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall
be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and, if the Registration Statement is then effective under the
Securities Act, shall be registered for public sale in accordance with such
Registration Statement.




     vii. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing
fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of this Debenture. As to any
fraction of a share which Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such
conversion, the Company shall at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in
respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the
Conversion Price or round up to the next whole share.




     viii. Transfer Taxes. The issuance of certificates for shares of the
Common Stock on conversion of this Debenture shall be made without charge to the
Holder hereof for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in
respect of the issue or delivery of such certificates, 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 this Debenture 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.



     Section 5. Certain Adjustments.




     a) Stock Dividends and Stock Splits. If the Company, at any time while this
Debenture is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or
distributions payable in shares of Common Stock on shares of Common Stock or any Common
Stock Equivalents (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common
Stock issued by the Company upon conversion of the Debentures),
(ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of a
reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or
(iv) issues, in the event of a 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



16









 







number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Company)
outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately 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.




     b) [RESERVED]




     c) Subsequent Rights Offerings. If the Company, at any time while the
Debenture is outstanding, shall issue rights, options or warrants to all holders of Common
Stock (and not to Holders) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common
Stock at a price per share that is lower than the VWAP on the record date referenced below,
then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the denominator shall
be the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding on the date of issuance of such
rights or warrants plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered for
subscription or purchase underlying such rights or warrants, and of which the numerator
shall be the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding on the date of issuance of
such rights or warrants plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the
total number of shares so offered (assuming delivery to the Company in full of all
consideration payable upon exercise of such rights, options or warrants) would purchase at
such VWAP. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such rights or warrants are issued, and
shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of
stockholders entitled to receive such rights, options or warrants.




     d) Pro Rata Distributions. If the Company, at any time while this Debenture is
outstanding, distributes to all holders of Common Stock (and not to the Holders) evidences
of its indebtedness or assets (including cash and periodic or extraordinary cash dividends)
or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security, then in each such case the
Conversion Price shall be adjusted by multiplying such Conversion Price in effect
immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to
receive such distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the VWAP
determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be such
VWAP on such record date less the then fair market value at such record date of the portion
of such assets or evidence of indebtedness so distributed applicable to 1 outstanding share
of the Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith.
In either case the adjustments shall be described in a statement delivered to the Holder
describing the portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or such
subscription rights applicable to 1 share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall be made
whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the
record date mentioned above.



17









 






     e) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Debenture is
outstanding, (i) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into
another Person, (ii) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets
in one transaction or a series of related transactions, (iii) any tender offer or exchange
offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of
Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or
property, or (iv) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any
compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into
or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such case, a “Fundamental
Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent conversion of this Debenture, the Holder shall
have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such
conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, the same
kind and amount of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive
upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to
such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of 1 share of Common Stock (the “Alternate
Consideration”). For purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the
Conversion Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration
based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one (1) share of
Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Conversion
Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value
of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are
given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental
Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate
Consideration it receives upon any conversion of this Debenture following such Fundamental
Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor
to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to the Holder
a new debenture consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder’s right
to convert such debenture into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant
to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such
successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this Section 5(e) and
insuring that this Debenture (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted
upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.




     f) Change in Control Transaction. If the Fundamental Transaction is also a
Change in Control Transaction, then the Holder shall have the right to cause the Company to
redeem this Debenture or to have an adjustment of the Conversion Price and/or Conversion
Shares, as set forth below. No later than 20 Trading Days prior to the consummation of a
Change of Control (such date of consummation of a Change of Control, the “Change of
Control Date”), but not prior to the public announcement of such Change of Control, the
Company shall deliver written notice thereof to the Holders (a “Change of Control
Notice” and the date of such Change of Control Notice, the “Change of Control Notice
Date”). Such Change of Control Notice shall state:



18









 






               (A)  the events causing the Change of Control;




               (B)  the Change of Control Date or anticipated Change of Control Date of such
Change of Control;




               (C)  the purchase price and whether that price will be paid in cash, shares of
common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of common stock; and




               (D)  if applicable, the expected determination of the adjustment to the
Conversion Price as set forth pursuant to Section 5(f)(iii) below.




               Simultaneously with the Change of Control Notice, the Company shall issue a
press release and timely file a Form 8-K containing the information contained in the
Change of Control Notice.




               (i) Change in Control Redemption. At any time during the period (the
“Change of Control Period”) beginning after a Holder’s receipt of a Change
of Control Notice and ending on the date that is five (5) Trading Days subsequent to
the Change of Control Date as set forth in the Change of Control Notice, such Holder
may require the Company to redeem (a “Change of Control Redemption”) all or
any portion of such Holder’s Debenture by delivering written notice thereof
(“Change of Control Redemption Notice”) to the Company, which Change of
Control Redemption Notice shall indicate the principal amount the Holder is electing
to redeem. Any principal amount of the Debenture subject to redemption pursuant to
this Section 5(f) shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price equal to the
sum of 103% of the principal amount being redeemed together with 100% of any accrued
but unpaid interest thereon and the Interest Make-Whole, if any (the “Change of
Control Redemption Price”). The Company shall make payment of the Change of
Control Redemption Price concurrently with the consummation of such Change of
Control if such a Change of Control Redemption Notice is received prior to the
consummation of such Change of Control and within 5 Trading Days after the Company’s
receipt of such notice otherwise (the “Change of Control Redemption Date”).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5(f), until the Change of
Control Redemption Price (together with any interest thereon) is paid in full, the
principal amount submitted for redemption under this Section 5(f) may be converted,
in whole or in part, by the Holder into Conversion Shares, or in the event the
Conversion Date is after the consummation of the Change of Control, shares or equity
interests of the successor entity substantially equivalent to the Company’s Common
Stock. The parties hereto agree that in the event of the Company’s redemption of
any portion of the Debenture under this Section 5(f), the Holder’s damages would be
uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict
future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable
substitute investment



19









 







opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any redemption premium due under this
Section 5(f) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable
estimate of the Holder’s actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a
penalty.




     (ii) Adjustment to Conversion Shares Upon a Change of Control.




          In connection with a Change of Control, the Company will increase the number of
Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Debenture by a number of
additional shares (the “Additional Shares”) for each $1,000 principal amount
of Debenture when converted as described in this Section 5(f)(ii); provided that (A)
such increase in Conversion Shares shall not take place if such Change of Control is
not consummated and (B) the Company shall issue Conversion Shares (without such
increase) on or prior to the fifth (5th) Trading Day following the
Conversion Date and the Additional Shares described in Section 5(f)(iii) hereof will
be issued after the later to occur of (x) the fifth (5th) Trading Day
following the Change of Control Date and (y) the fifth (5th) Trading Day
following the relevant Conversion Date. On and after the Change of Control Date,
Holders entitled to receive Additional Shares pursuant to this Section 5(f)(ii)
shall receive the kind and amount of securities (of the Company or another issuer),
cash and other property receivable upon such Change of Control by a holder of the
number of shares of Common Stock into which this Debenture was convertible
immediately prior to such Change of Control, after giving effect to any adjustment
event, based on the number of Additional Shares set forth above.




          The number of Additional Shares will be determined by reference to the table
below, based on the Change of Control Date and the price of the Common Stock (the
“Stock Price”). If the consideration for the Common Stock consists solely of
cash, then the Stock Price will be the cash amount paid per share of the Common
Stock. Otherwise, the Stock Price will be the average of the VWAPs for the 5
consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the Change of Control Date.




          The following table sets forth the number of Additional Shares per $1,000
principal amount of Debenture to be added to the Conversion Shares issuable in
connection with the Change of Control referred to in Section 5(f)(ii):



20

          The Stock Prices set forth in the table will be adjusted as of any date on
which the Conversion Price is adjusted. The adjusted Stock Prices will equal the
Stock Prices applicable immediately prior to the adjustment divided by a fraction,
the numerator of which is the Conversion Price immediately prior to the adjustment
to the Conversion Price and the denominator of which is the Conversion Price as so
adjusted.




          The exact Stock Price and Change of Control Date may not be set forth in the
table, in which case:




          (A) if the Stock Price is between two Stock Prices in the table
or the Change of Control Date is between two Change of Control Dates
in the table, the number of Additional Shares will be determined by
straight-line interpolation between the Additional Share amounts set
forth for the higher and lower Stock Prices and the two Change of
Control Dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year;




          (B) if the Stock Price is in excess of $10.00 per share (subject
to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Price), no Additional
Shares will be added to the Conversion Shares; and




          (C) if the Stock Price is less than or equal to $5.47 per share
(subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Price), no
Additional Shares will be added to the Conversion Shares.




     g) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 5 shall be made to the
nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this
Section 5, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding



21









 






as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding
any treasury shares of the Company) issued and outstanding.




     h) Notice to the Holder.




     i. Adjustment to Conversion Price. Whenever the Conversion Price is
adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 5, the Company shall promptly
deliver to each Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such
adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such
adjustment.




     ii. Notice to Allow Conversion by Holder. If (A) the Company shall
declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock,
(B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a
redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all
holders of the Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe for or
purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any
stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any
reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the
Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets
of the Company, of any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is
converted into other securities, cash or property, (E) the Company shall be subject
to a Fundamental Transaction or a Change in Control Transaction, or (F) the Company
shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up
of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be
filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of this
Debenture, and shall cause to be delivered to the Holder at its last address as it
shall appear upon the Debenture Register, at least twenty (20) calendar days prior
to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating
(x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the
date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such
dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y)
the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or
share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it
is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange
their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable
upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange,
provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the
delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to
be specified in such notice. The Holder is entitled to convert this Debenture
during the 20-day period commencing on the date of such notice through the effective
date of the event triggering such notice.



22









 





     Section 6. Redemption.




     a) Optional Redemption at Election of Company. Subject to the provisions of
this Section 6(a), at any time after the 2-year anniversary of the Original Issue Date,
provided that the VWAP of the Common Stock has been at least 150% of the Conversion Price
for any 20 out of 30 consecutive Trading Days, such 30 consecutive Trading Day period
beginning only after the 2-year anniversary of the Original Issue Date, then, within 1
Trading Day of the end of such period, the Company may deliver a notice to the Holder (a
“Company Optional Redemption Notice” and the date such notice is deemed delivered
hereunder, the “Company Optional Redemption Notice Date”) of its irrevocable
election to redeem some or all of the then outstanding principal amount of this Debenture
for cash in an amount equal to the Company Optional Redemption Amount on the 20th
Trading Day following the Company Optional Redemption Notice Date (such date, the
“Company Optional Redemption Date”, such 20 Trading Day period, the “Company
Optional Redemption Period” and such redemption, the “Company Optional
Redemption”). The Company Optional Redemption Amount is payable in full on the Company
Optional Redemption Date. The Company may only effect an Company Optional Redemption if
each of the Equity Conditions shall have been met (unless waived in writing by the Holder)
on each Trading Day during the period commencing on the Company Optional Redemption Notice
Date through to the Company Optional Redemption Date and through and including the date
payment of the Company Optional Redemption Amount is actually made in full. If any of the
Equity Conditions shall cease to be satisfied at any time during the Company Optional
Redemption Period through to the Company Optional Redemption Date and through and including
the date payment of the Company Optional Redemption Amount is actually made in full, then
the Holder may elect to nullify the Company Optional Redemption Notice by notice to the
Company within 3 Trading Days after it receives written notice from the Company that any
such Equity Condition has not been met, in which case the Company Optional Redemption Notice
shall be null and void, ab initio. The Company covenants and agrees that it
will honor all Notices of Conversion tendered from the time of delivery of the Company
Optional Redemption Notice through the date all amounts owing thereon are due and paid in
full. The Company’s determination to effect a Company Optional Redemption shall be applied
ratably to all of the holders of the then outstanding Debentures.




     b) Optional Redemption at Election of Holder. Subject to the provisions of
this Section 6(b), at any time prior to the three month anniversary of the Original Issue
Date, the Holder may deliver a notice to the Company (an “Holder Optional Redemption
Notice” and the date such notice is deemed delivered hereunder, the “Holder Optional
Redemption Notice Date”) of its election to require the Company redeem up to 25% of the
original face principal amount of this Debenture for cash in an amount equal to the Holder
Optional Redemption Amount on the 20th Trading Day following the Holder Optional
Redemption Notice Date (such date, the “Holder Optional Redemption Date”, such 20
Trading Day period, the “Holder Optional Redemption Period” and such redemption, the
“Holder Optional Redemption”). The Holder Optional Redemption



23









 







Amount is payable in full on the Holder Optional Redemption Date. The Company
covenants and agrees that it will honor all Notices of Conversion tendered from the time of
delivery of the Holder Optional Redemption Notice through the date all amounts owing thereon
are due and paid in full.




     c) Redemption Procedure. The payment of cash or issuance of Common Stock, as
applicable, pursuant to a Company Optional Redemption or a Holder Optional Redemption shall
be payable on the Company Optional Redemption Date or the Holder Optional Redemption Date,
as applicable. If any portion of the payment pursuant to an Optional Redemption shall not
be paid by the Company by the applicable due date, interest shall accrue thereon at an
interest rate equal to the lesser of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted by
applicable law until such amount is paid in full. Notwithstanding anything herein contained
to the contrary, if any portion of the Company Optional Redemption Amount or the Holder
Optional Redemption Amount remains unpaid after such date, the Holder may elect, by written
notice to the Company given at any time thereafter, to invalidate such Optional Redemption,
ab initio, and, with respect to the Company’s failure to honor the Optional
Redemption, the Company shall have no further right to exercise such Optional Redemption.
The Holder may elect to convert the outstanding principal amount of the Debenture pursuant
to Section 4 prior to actual payment in cash for any redemption under this Section 6 by the
delivery of a Notice of Conversion to the Company. Upon completion of any redemption
provided for under this Section 6, the Company will promptly and in no event later than four
(4) Business Days file a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing the material details of such
redemption.



     Section 7. Negative Covenants. As long as any portion of this Debenture
remains outstanding, unless the holders of at least 67% in principal amount of the then outstanding
Debentures shall have otherwise given prior written consent, the Company shall not, and shall not
permit any of its subsidiaries (whether or not a Subsidiary on the Original Issue Date) to,
directly or indirectly:

enter into, create, incur, assume, guarantee or suffer to exist any indebtedness for
borrowed money of any kind, including, but not limited to, a guarantee, on or with respect
to any of its property or assets now owned or hereafter acquired or any interest therein or

     b) other than Permitted Liens and except as provided in the Credit Agreement,

Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement);




     f) pay cash dividends or distributions on any equity securities of the Company;




     g) enter into any transaction with any Affiliate of the Company which would be required

Person not an Affiliate; or

unconditional, to pay the principal of, liquidated damages and accrued interest, as
applicable, on this Debenture at the time, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency,

stolen or destroyed, the Company shall execute and deliver, in exchange and substitution for
and upon cancellation of a mutilated Debenture, or in lieu of or in substitution for a lost,

mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, but only upon receipt of evidence of such loss, theft
or destruction of such Debenture, and of the ownership hereof, reasonably satisfactory to
the Company.




     d) Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity,
enforcement and interpretation of this Debenture shall be governed by and construed and
enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to



29









 







the principles of conflict of laws thereof. Each party agrees that all legal
proceedings concerning the interpretation, enforcement and defense of the transactions
contemplated by any of the Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or
its respective Affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be
commenced in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of
Manhattan (the “New York Courts”). Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to
the exclusive jurisdiction of the New York Courts for the adjudication of any dispute
hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed
herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and
hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any
claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such New York Courts, or such
New York Courts are improper or inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby
irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any
such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail
or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for

amendment, by the Company and the Holder, except that Section 7 hereof may be waived or
amended with the prior written consent of the holders of at least 67% of the principal
amount of Debentures then outstanding (provided that any Debentures held by the Company and
its Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding for this purpose and no consideration
shall be offered or paid to any holder of Debentures to consent to any such amendment or
waiver unless the same consideration is offered to all holders of the Debentures). Any
waiver by the Company or the Holder of a breach of any provision of this Debenture shall not
operate as or be construed to be a waiver of any other breach of such provision or of any
breach of any other provision of this Debenture. The failure of the Company or the Holder
to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Debenture on one or more occasions shall
not be considered a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon
strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Debenture. Any waiver by the
Company or the Holder must be in writing.




     f) Severability. If any provision of this Debenture is invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, the balance of this Debenture shall remain in effect, and if any provision



30









 







is inapplicable to any Person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable
to all other Persons and circumstances. If it shall be found that any interest or other
amount deemed interest due hereunder violates the applicable law governing usury, the
applicable rate of interest due hereunder shall automatically be lowered to equal the
maximum rate of interest permitted under applicable law. The Company covenants (to the
extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in
any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or
usury law or other law which would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any
portion of the principal of or interest on this Debenture as contemplated herein, wherever
enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the
performance of this indenture, and the Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) hereby
expressly waives all benefits or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not,
by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted
to the Holder, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such as though no such law
has been enacted.




     g) Next Business Day. Whenever any payment or other obligation hereunder shall
be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding
Business Day.




     h) Headings. The headings contained herein are for convenience only, do not
constitute a part of this Debenture and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the
provisions hereof.




     i) Assumption.  Any successor to the Company or any surviving entity in a
Fundamental Transaction shall (i) assume, prior to such Fundamental Transaction, all of the
obligations of the Company under this Debenture and the other Transaction Documents pursuant
to written agreements in form and substance satisfactory to the Holder (such approval not to
be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and (ii) issue to the Holder a new debenture of such
successor entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and
substance to this Debenture, including, without limitation, having a principal amount and
interest rate equal to the principal amount and the interest rate of this Debenture and
having similar ranking to this Debenture, which shall be satisfactory to the Holder (any
such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).  The provisions of this Section
9(i) shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and shall be
applied without regard to any limitations of this Debenture.




     j) Secured Obligation. The obligations of the Company under this Debenture are
secured pursuant to the Security Agreement and the Mortgages between the Company, the
Subsidiaries and the Secured Parties (as defined therein) granting a second lien on all
those assets of the Company and each Subsidiary, with respect to which JP Morgan has a first
lien pursuant to the Credit Agreement.
