Section 4. Conversion Upon Event of Default.


 


(a) The Holder, if elected pursuant to Section 3(b) above (as a result of a default of 3(a)(i) or 3(a)(ii), shall convert all or a portion of the Principal Amount into shares of Common Stock, the Holder shall effect such conversion by delivering to the Company a notice of conversion (a “Notice of Default Conversion”), specifying therein the Principal Amount to be converted and the date on which such conversion is to be effected (a “Default Conversion Date”).


 


(b) If the Holder elects to convert all of the principal of the Debentures (which, for avoidance of doubt, includes all Principal Amount and all principal due under the other Debentures) into shares of Common Stock, then the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be an amount of Common Stock equal to the (i) multiple of (A) 10% times (B) Fully Diluted Shares Outstanding at the Default Conversion Date divided by (ii) 90%. If the Holder elects to convert a portion of the principal of the Debentures into shares of Common Stock, then the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be determined on a pro rata basis.


 


Section 5. This Debenture is a direct obligation of the Company, and the obligation of the Company to repay this Debenture is absolute and unconditional, but is expressly subordinated to all currently outstanding secured indebtedness of the Company outstanding on the date hereof. The repayment terms hereof reflect the substantial risks Holder is assuming by virtue of such subordination and Holder’s further agreement evidenced hereby that no recourse shall be had for the payment of the Principal Amount, or interest on the Debenture, or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, against any shareholder, officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or any successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being, by the express terms hereof and as part of the consideration for the repayment terms here or hereof, expressly waived and released.


 


Section 6. Interest on the amount advanced will accrue on this Debenture until the Maturity Date at the rate of sixteen percent (16% per annum), and be payable on the Maturity Date. If any portion of this Debenture is outstanding on the Maturity Date, interest at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or the highest rate allowed by law, whichever is lower, shall accrue on the outstanding Principal Amount from the Maturity Date to and including the date of payment by the Company. All past due interest shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable in cash. The Holder may demand payment of all or any part of this Debenture, together with accrued interest, if any, and any other amounts due hereunder, as of the Maturity Date or any date thereafter.


 


Section 7. This Debenture shall be unsecured.


 


Section 8. Any payment made by the Company to the Holder, on account of this Debenture shall be applied in the following order of priority: (i) first, to any amounts other than the Principal Amount and accrued interest, if any, hereunder, (ii) second, to accrued interest, if any, through and including the date of payment, and (iv) then, to the Principal Amount.


 


Section 9.The outstanding Principal Amount may not be prepaid, except as set forth in Section 11 hereof.


 


Section 10. The term “Maturity Date” means the earliest of (i) November 1, 2010, or (ii) the accelerated Maturity Date applicable in the case of any uncured Event of Default.


 


Section 11. In the event of a Change of Control of the Company, the Holder, at his option, will have the right (a) immediately prior to the Change in Control, to convert the Debenture into securities of the Company of the same class as those held by the persons acquiring control of the Company, or (b) to require the Company, upon the Change in Control, to purchase the Debenture at a purchase price of 125% of the price, plus accrued interest. The Company shall give Holder 20 days notice prior to the event of a Change of Control.


 


Section 12. This Debenture shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York for contracts to be wholly performed in such state and without giving effect to the principles thereof regarding the conflict of laws. Each of the parties consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts of the State of New York located in New York County and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York in connection with any dispute arising under this Agreement and hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any objection, including any objection based on forum non convenes, to the bringing of any such proceeding in such jurisdictions. To the extent determined by such court, the Company shall reimburse the Holder for any reasonable legal fees and disbursements incurred by the Holder in enforcement of or protection of any of its rights under this Debenture. The Company and the Holder hereby waive a trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of the parties hereto against the other in respect of any matter arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the Debenture
