2. Amendment to Agreement and Debentures. Pursuant to the March 27, 2015 consent, the Agreement and Debentures shall be amended to (i) allow for up to an additional $5,000,000 of Debentures to be issued by Parent pursuant to the Agreement, (ii) reduce the Debenture Conversion Share price and Warrant Share price to $0.25.




 


3. Reduction in Debenture Conversion Price and Warrant Share Price. The Debentures and other Transaction Documents shall be hereby further amended to reduce the Debenture Conversion Share price to $0.075 and reduce the Warrant Share Price to $0.10.


 


4. Amendment to Debenture Maturity Date. The Debentures and other Transaction Documents shall be hereby amended to extend the Maturity Date of the Debentures to July 31, 2016 (the “New Maturity Date”).




 


5. Amendment to Interest Payments. Section (2) of the Debentures shall be deleted and replaced to read as follows:







(2)           INTEREST; INTEREST RATE.  Interest on this Debenture shall commence accruing on the Issuance Date and shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and actual days elapsed and shall be payable in arrears for each Payment Quarter on the first day of the succeeding Payment Quarter during the period beginning on March 1, 2015 and ending on, and including, the Maturity Date (each, an “Interest Date”). Interest shall be payable on each Interest Date, to the record holder of this Debenture on the applicable Interest Date, in shares of restricted Common Stock (“Interest Shares”).  Interest to be paid on an Interest Date in Interest Shares shall be paid in a number of fully paid and nonassessable shares (provided, that if the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company shall round such fraction of a share of Common Stock up to the nearest whole share) of Common Stock equal to the quotient of (a) the amount of Interest payable on such Interest Date less any Cash Interest paid and (b) the Interest Conversion Price in effect on the applicable Interest Date.  When Interest Shares are paid on an Interest Date, then the Company shall (X) provided that the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program and such action is not prohibited by applicable law or regulation or any applicable policy of DTC, credit such aggregate number of Interest Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal At Custodian system, or (Y) if the foregoing shall not apply, issue and deliver within three Trading Days after the applicable Interest Date, to the address set forth in the register maintained by the Company for such purpose pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement or to such address as specified by the Holder in writing to the Company at least two Business Days prior to the applicable Interest Date, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Interest Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Interest Rate shall be increased to thirteen percent (13.00%) (the “Default Rate”).  In the event that such Event of Default is subsequently cured, the adjustment referred to in the preceding sentence shall cease to be effective as of the date of such cure; provided that the Interest as calculated and unpaid at such increased rate during the continuance of such Event of Default shall continue to apply to the extent relating to the days after the occurrence of such Event of Default through and including the date of cure of such Event of Default.  The Company shall pay any and all taxes that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Interest Shares; provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any issuance of Interest Shares to any Person other than the Holder or with respect to any income tax due by the Holder with respect to such Interest Shares
