US $4,500                                            January 20, 2004

           1% CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE DUE JANUARY 20, 2009

THIS DEBENTURE of Universal Pet Care, Inc., a Hawaii corporation (the
"Company") in the aggregate principal amount of Four Thousand Five
Hundred Dollars (US $4,500), is designated as its $4,500, 1%
Convertible Debenture due January 20, 2009 (the "Debentures").

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Company promises to pay to HEM Mutual Assurance
LLC or its registered assigns (the "Holder"), the principal sum of Four
Thousand Five Hundred Dollars (US $4,500), on or prior to January 20,
2009 (the "Maturity Date") and to pay interest to the Holder on the
principal sum at the rate of one percent (1%) per annum.  Interest
shall accrue daily commencing on the Original Issuance Date (as defined
in Section 1 below) in the form of cash or common stock of the Company
selected by the Holder subject to the provisions of Section 2(b)
hereof, until payment in full of the principal sum, together with all
accrued and unpaid interest, has been made or duly provided for.  If at
any time after the Original Issuance Date an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, interest shall accrue at the rate of eight
percent (8%) per annum from the date of the Event of Default and the
applicable cure period through and including the date of payment.
Interest due and payable hereunder shall be paid to the person in whose
name this Debenture (or one or more successor Debentures) is registered
on the records of the Company regarding registration and transfers of
the Debentures (the "Debenture Register"); provided, however, that the
Company's obligation to a transferee of this Debenture shall arise only
if such transfer, sale or other disposition is made in accordance with
the terms and conditions hereof and of the Convertible Debenture
Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") by and between the
Company and the Purchaser (as such term is defined in the Purchase
Agreement), dated as of January 20, 2004, as may be amended from time
to time.  A transfer of the right to receive principal and interest
under this Debenture shall be transferable only through an appropriate
entry in the Debenture Register as provided herein.

If the Company in order to consummate a merger (the "Merger") enters
into a merger agreement or similar agreement with other parties (the
"Merger Partners"), the Merger Partners will effective upon the
consummation of any such Merger assume all of the obligations, jointly
and severally, with the Company, under this Debenture and substitute
the Company's Common Stock, into which this Debenture is convertible,
for common stock of such Merger Partner ("MP Common Stock") including
depositing 3,000,000 shares of MP Common Stock with  the Escrow Agent
(as defined in the Purchase Agreement).  If and when the Merger occurs,
at the time such Merger is effective, the Escrow Agent will deliver the
Company's Common Stock being held in accordance with the Purchase


Agreement and this Debenture to the Company.  If the Merger occurs,
then (i) references herein to Company Common Stock shall be references
to MP Common Stock and (ii) any references the Company shall be read as
references to the MP that issued the MP Common Stock as if this
Debenture were issued on the date hereof by the MP that issued the MP
Common Stock and the Company shall have no further obligations to issue
shares of Common Stock hereunder.  For the benefit of the Holder, the
Company shall use its best efforts to effectuate the intentions of this
paragraph.

If there is a Merger all of the provisions of this Debenture
(specifically including Section 4) shall be read and interpreted as if
this Debenture was issued by the Merger Partner issuing the MP Common
Stock on the date hereof and this Debenture was initially convertible
into MP Common Stock.

This Debenture is subject to the following additional provisions:

Company in an amount exceeding One Hundred Thousand Dollars

case may be, within ten (10) Trading Days of such deletion or

(g)  notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, but subject to
the limitations set forth in the Debentures, the Company shall fail to
deliver to the Escrow Agent share certificates representing the shares
of Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of the Debentures within
three (3) Business Days after to the Company's receipt  of notice from

(h)  the Company shall issue a press release, or otherwise make

(i)  the Company issues or enters into an agreement to issue any

during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the five
year anniversary of the Post-Closing Date, provided, however, that such
five year period shall immediately end upon the earlier of the (A) full
conversion of the Debentures and (B) the redemption of the outstanding
principal amount of the Debentures.

II. (a)  If any Event of Default occurs, and continues beyond a cure
period, if any, then the Holder may, by written notice to the Company,
accelerate all of the payments due under this Debenture by declaring
all amounts so due under this Debenture, whereupon the same shall
become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest
or other notice of any kind, all of which are waived by the Company,
notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, and the
Holder may immediately and without expiration of any additional grace
period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all
other remedies available to it under applicable law.  Such declaration
may be rescinded and annulled by the Holder at any time prior to
payment hereunder.  No such rescission or annulment shall affect any
subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.
This shall include, but not be limited to the right to temporary,
preliminary and permanent injunctive relief without the requirement of
posting any bond or undertaking.



(b)  The Holder may thereupon proceed to protect and enforce its rights
either by suit in equity and/or by action at law or by other
appropriate proceedings whether for the specific performance (to the
extent permitted by law) of any covenant or agreement contained in this
Debenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this
Debenture, and proceed to enforce the payment of any of the Debentures
held by it, and to enforce any other legal or equitable right of such
Holder.

(c)  Except as expressly provided for herein, the Company specifically
(i) waives all rights it may have (A) to notice of nonpayment, notice
of default, demand, presentment, protest and notice of protest with
respect to any of the obligations hereunder or the shares of Common
Stock and (B) notice of acceptance hereof or of any other action taken
in reliance hereon, notice and opportunity to be heard before the

summary procedures and all other demands and notices of any type or
description except for cure periods, if any; and (ii) releases the
Holder, its officers, directors, agents, employees and attorneys from
all claims for loss or damage caused by any act or failure to act on
the part of the Holder, its officers, attorneys, agents, directors and
employees except for gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(d)  As a non-exclusive remedy, upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default, the Holder may convert the remaining principal amount of the
Debentures and accrued interest thereon at the Conversion Price upon
giving a Notice of Conversion to the Company.  Except as otherwise
provided herein, the Company shall not have the right to object to the
conversion or the calculation of the applicable conversion price,
absent manifest error and the Escrow Agent shall release the shares of
Common Stock from escrow two (2) business days after upon notifying the
Company of the conversion.

III.  To effectuate the terms and provision of this Debenture, the
Holder may give notice of any default to the Attorney-in-Fact as set
forth herein and give a copy of such notice to the Company and its
counsel, simultaneously, and request the Attorney-in-Fact to comply
with the terms of this Debenture and the Purchase Agreement and all
agreements entered into pursuant to the Purchase Agreement on behalf of
the Company.

Section 4.  Conversion.
(a)  Except as otherwise set forth herein or in the Purchase Agreement,
the unpaid principal amount of this Debenture shall be convertible into
shares of Common Stock at the Conversion Ratio as defined above, and
subject to the Limitation on Conversion described in Section 4.18 of
the Purchase Agreement and in the paragraph immediately following the
paragraph beginning "For Value Received", at the option of the Holder,
in whole or in part, at any time, commencing on the Original Issuance
Date.  Such shares of Common Stock shall be without any restriction and
freely tradable pursuant to Rule 504 of Regulation D of the Securities
Act.  Any conversion under this Section 4(a) shall be for a minimum
principal amount of $1,000.00 of the Debentures plus the interest
accrued and due thereon.  The Holder shall effect conversions by
surrendering the Debenture to be converted to the Escrow Agent,
together with the form of notice attached hereto as Appendix I ("Notice
of Conversion") in the manner set forth in Section 4(j) hereof.  Each
Notice of Conversion shall specify the principal amount of Debentures
to be converted and the date on which such conversion is to be effected
(the "Conversion Date") which date shall not be less than two (2)
Business Days after the date on which the Notice of Conversion is


delivered to the Escrow Agent.  Subject to the last paragraph of
Section 4(b) hereof, each Notice of Conversion, once given, shall be
irrevocable.  If the Holder is converting less than all of the
principal amount represented by the Debentures tendered by the Holder
in the Notice of Conversion, the Company shall deliver to the Holder a
new Debenture for such principal amount as has not been converted
within two (2) Business Days of the Conversion Date.  In the event that
the Escrow Agent holds the Debentures on behalf of the Holder, the
Company agrees that in lieu of surrendering the Debentures upon every
partial conversion, the Escrow Agent shall give the Company and the
Holder written notice of the amount of the Debentures left unconverted.
Upon conversion in full of the Debentures or upon the Maturity Date,
the Escrow Agent shall return the Debentures and the Escrow Shares, if
any, to the Company for cancellation.

(b)  Not later than two (2) Business Days after the Conversion Date,
the Escrow Agent shall deliver to the Holder (i) a certificate or
certificates representing the number of shares of Common Stock being
acquired upon the conversion of the Debentures, and once the Debentures
so converted in part shall have been surrendered to the Company, the
Company shall deliver to the Holder Debentures in the principal amount
of the Debentures not yet converted; provided, however, that the
Company shall not be obligated to issue certificates evidencing the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Debentures,
until the Debentures are either delivered for conversion to the Escrow
Agent or the Company or any transfer agent for the Debentures or Common
Stock, or the Holder notifies the Company that such Debentures have
been lost, stolen or destroyed and provides an affidavit of loss and an
agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company indemnifying the Company
from any loss incurred by it in connection with such loss, theft or
destruction.  In the case of a conversion pursuant to a Notice of
Conversion, if such certificate or certificates are not delivered by
the date required under this Section 4(b), the Holder shall be
entitled, upon providing written notice to the Company at any time on
or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates thereafter,
to rescind such conversion, in which event, the Company shall
immediately return the Debentures tendered for conversion.

Subject to any limitations set forth in the Purchase Agreement, the
Company agrees that at any time the conversion price of the Debentures
are such that the number of Escrow Shares is less than 200 percent of
the Full Conversion Shares, upon five (5) Business Days of the
Company's receipt of  notice of such circumstance from the Purchaser
and/or the Escrow Agent, the Company shall issue share certificates in
the name of the Purchaser and deliver the same to the Escrow Agent, in
such number that the new number of Escrow Shares is equal to 200
percent of the Full Conversion Shares.

(c)  (i)  The conversion price for the Debentures in effect on any
Conversion Date shall be $0.01 (the "Conversion Price"); provided,
however, that the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock
that the First Debenture and Second Debenture may be converted into
shall be Three Million (3,000,000) shares (the "Maximum Conversion");
and further provided, however, that upon the Maximum Conversion, the
Company shall, at its option (a) increase the Maximum Conversion or (b)
redeem the unconverted amount of the First Debenture and Second
Debenture in whole or in part at one hundred twenty five percent (125%)
of the unconverted amount of such Debentures being redeemed plus
accrued interest thereon.  For purposes of determining the closing bid
price on any day, reference shall be to the closing bid price for a
share of Common Stock on such date on the American Stock Exchange (or


such other exchange, market, or other system that the Common Stock is
then traded on), as reported on Bloomberg, L.P. (or similar
organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting
prices).

  (ii)  If the Company, at any time while any of the Debentures are
outstanding, (a) shall pay a stock dividend or otherwise make a
distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock payable in
shares of its capital stock (whether payable in shares of its Common
Stock or of capital stock of any class), (b) subdivide outstanding
shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (c) combine
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or
(d) issue by reclassification any shares of capital stock of the
Company, the Conversion Price as applied in Section 4(c)(i) shall be
multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of
shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding immediately before
such event and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares
of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such
event.  Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4(c)(ii) 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 reclassification,
provided that no adjustment shall be made if the Company does not
complete such dividend, distribution, subdivision, combination or
reclassification.

  (iii)  If, at any time while any of the Debentures are outstanding,
the Company issues or sells shares of Common Stock, or options,
warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common
Stock (excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of
the Debentures or upon the exercise of options, warrants or conversion
rights granted prior to the date hereof) and at a price per share less
than the Per Share Market Value (as defined in the Purchase Agreement)
of the Common Stock at the issue date mentioned below, the Conversion
Price shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall
be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if
any) outstanding on the date of issuance of such shares, options,
warrants or rights plus the number of shares which the aggregate
offering price of the total number of shares so offered would purchase
at such Per Share Market Value, and the denominator of which shall be
the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if
any) outstanding on the date of issuance of such options, rights or
warrants plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered
for subscription or purchase.  Such adjustment shall be made whenever
such options, rights or warrants are issued (and if such adjustment is
made, no further adjustment will be made when such options, rights or
warrants are exercised), and shall become effective immediately after
the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to
receive such options, rights or warrants.  However, upon the expiration
of any options, right or warrant to purchase Common Stock, the issuance
of which resulted in an adjustment in the Conversion Price pursuant to
this Section 4(c)(iii), if any such options, right or warrant shall
expire and shall not have been exercised, the Conversion Price shall
immediately upon such expiration be recomputed and effective
immediately upon such expiration be increased to the price which it
would have been (but reflecting any other adjustments in the conversion
price made pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4 after the
issuance of such rights or warrants) had the adjustment of the
conversion price made upon the issuance of such options, rights or
warrants been made on the basis of offering for subscription or


purchase only that number of shares of Common Stock actually purchased
upon the exercise of such options, rights or warrants actually
exercised.  There will be no adjustment under this Section 4(c)(iii) if
Common Stock is issued due to the exercise of (x) employee stock
options that were issued to such employee, or (y) other options,
warrants or rights to subscribe for or purchase that, in any case, are
issued at an exercise or subscription price equal to Per Share Market
Value.

  (iv)  If, at any time while Debentures are outstanding, the Company
distributes to all holders of Common Stock (and not to holders of
Debentures) evidences of Company indebtedness or assets, or rights or
warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security (excluding those
referred to in Section 4(c)(iii) hereof), then, in each such case, the
conversion price at which each Debenture then outstanding shall
thereafter be convertible shall be determined by multiplying (A) the
Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed
for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution
by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Per Share Market
Value of the Common Stock determined as of the record date mentioned
above less the then fair market value at such record date of the
portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness so distributed
applicable to one outstanding share of Common Stock as determined by
the Board of Directors in good faith and the denominator of which shall
be the Per Share Market Value of the Common Stock on such record date;
provided, however, that in the event of a distribution exceeding ten
percent (10%) of the net assets of the Company, such fair market value
shall be determined by a nationally recognized or major regional
investment banking firm or firm of independent certified public
accountants of nationally recognized standing (which may be the firm
that regularly examines the financial statements of the Company) (an
"Appraiser") selected in good faith by the holders of a majority of the
principal amount of the Debentures then outstanding; and provided,
further, that the Company, after receipt of the determination by such
Appraiser, shall have the right to select an additional Appraiser, in
which case such fair market value shall be equal to the average of the
determinations by each such Appraiser.  In either case the adjustments
shall be described in a statement provided to the Holder and all other
holders of Debentures of the portion of assets or evidences of
indebtedness so distributed or such subscription rights applicable to
one 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.  The Company shall pay all fees and
expenses of any Appraiser selected under this Section 4(c)(iv).

  (v)  All calculations under this Section 4 shall be made to the
nearest 1/1000th of a cent or the nearest 1/1000th of a share, as the
case may be.  Any calculation equal to or over .005 shall be rounded up
to the next cent or share and any calculation less than .005 shall be
rounded down to the previous cent or share.

  (vi)  In the event the conversion price is not adjusted pursuant to
Section 4(c)(ii) or (v), within two (2) Business Days following the
occurrence of an event described therein and, in the case of Section
4c(iv), within three (3) Business Days following the determination of
the fair market value by the Appraiser(s), the Holder shall have the
right to require the Company to redeem the Debentures at 125 percent of
the Purchase Price and simultaneously pay such amount and all accrued
interest and dividends to the Holder pursuant to the written
instructions provided by the Holder.  The Company will have two (2)


Business Days to make the appropriate adjustment from the time the
Company is provided with written notice from the Holder of a failure to
comply with this Section 4.

  (vii)  Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to Section
4(c)(ii),(iii) or (iv), the Company shall within two (2) Business Days
after the determination of the new Conversion Price mail and fax (in
the manner set forth in Section 4(j) hereof) to the Holder and to each
other holder of Debentures, a notice ("Company Notice of Conversion
Price Adjustment") setting forth the Conversion Price after such
adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring
such adjustment.

  (viii)  In case of any reclassification of the Common Stock, any
consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another person, the
sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common
Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property, then each
holder of Debentures then outstanding shall have the right thereafter
to convert such Debentures only into the shares of stock and other
securities and property receivable upon or deemed to be held by holders
of Common Stock following such reclassification, consolidation, merger,
sale, transfer or share exchange (except in the event the property is
cash, then the Holder shall have the right to convert the Debentures
and receive cash in the same manner as other stockholders), and the
Holder shall be entitled upon such event to receive such amount of
securities or property as the holder of shares of the Common Stock into
which such Debentures could have been converted immediately prior to
such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share
exchange would have been entitled.  The terms of any such
consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange shall include
such terms so as to continue to give to the Holder the right to receive
the securities or property set forth in this Section 4(c)(viii) upon
any conversion following such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or
share exchange.  This provision shall similarly apply to successive
reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or share
exchanges;

  (ix)  If:

        (A)  the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other
distribution) on its Common Stock; or

        (B) the Company shall declare a special non-recurring cash
dividend  redemption of its Common Stock; or

        (C)   the Company shall authorize the grant to all holders of
the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any
shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights; or

        (D)  the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be
required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock of
the Company (other than a subdivision or combination of the outstanding
shares of 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, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the
Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property; or

        (E)  the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary
dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the affairs of the Company;



then the Company shall cause to be filed at each office or agency
maintained for the purpose of conversion of Debentures, and shall cause
to be mailed and faxed to the Holder and each other holder of the
Debentures at their last addresses and facsimile number set forth in
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 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,
share exchange, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is expected to
become effective, and the date as of which it is expected that holders
of Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of
Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, share
exchange, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up; provided, however,
that the failure to mail such notice or any defect therein or in the
mailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action
required to be specified in such notice.

(d)  If at any time conditions shall arise by reason of action or
failure to act by the Company, which action or failure to act, in the
opinion of the Board of Directors of the Company, is not adequately
covered by the other provisions hereof and which might materially and
adversely affect the rights of the Holder and all other holders of
Debentures (different or distinguishable from the effect generally on
rights of holders of any class of the Company's capital stock), the
Company shall, at least twenty (20) calendar days prior to the
effective date of such action, mail and fax a written notice to each
holder of Debentures briefly describing the action contemplated, and an
Appraiser selected by the holders of majority in principal amount of
the outstanding Debentures shall give its opinion as to the adjustment,
if any (not inconsistent with the standards established in this
Section 4 and the terms of the Purchase Agreement and the Debentures),
of the conversion price (including, if necessary, any adjustment as to
the securities into which Debentures may thereafter be convertible) and
any distribution which is or would be required to preserve without
diluting the rights of the holders of Debentures; provided, however,
that the Company, after receipt of the determination by such Appraiser,
shall have the right to select an additional Appraiser, in which case
the adjustment shall be equal to the average of the adjustments
recommended by each such Appraiser.  The Company shall pay all fees and
expenses of any Appraiser selected under this Section 4(d). The Board
of Directors of the Company shall make the adjustment recommended
forthwith upon the receipt of such opinion or opinions or the taking of
any such action contemplated, as the case may be; provided, however,
that no such adjustment of the conversion price shall be made which, in
the opinion of the Appraiser(s) giving the aforesaid opinion or
opinions, would result in an increase of the conversion price above the
conversion price then in effect.

(e)  Subject to the terms and limitations set forth in the Debentures
and the Purchase Agreement, including without limitation, Sections 4.14
and 4.28, thereof, the Company covenants and agrees that it shall, at
all times, reserve and keep available out of its authorized and
unissued Common Stock solely for the purpose of issuance upon
conversion of the Debentures as herein provided, free from preemptive
rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of persons other
than the Holder of the Debentures, two (2) times such number of shares


of Common Stock as shall be issuable (taking into account the
adjustments and restrictions of Section 4(c) and Section 4(d) hereof)
upon the conversion of the aggregate principal amount of the
outstanding Debentures.  The Company covenants that, subject to the
limitations set forth in this Section 4(e), all shares of Common Stock
that shall be issuable upon conversion of the Debentures shall, upon
issuance, be duly and validly authorized and issued and fully paid and
non-assessable.

(f)  No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon a
conversion hereunder and the number of shares to be issued shall be
rounded up to the nearest whole share.  If a fractional share interest
arises upon any conversion hereunder, the Company shall eliminate such
fractional share interest by issuing to the Holder an additional full
share of Common Stock.

(g)  The issuance of a certificate or certificates for shares of Common
Stock upon conversion of the Debentures shall be made without charge to
the Holder for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be
payable in respect of the issuance or delivery of such certificate,
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 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.

(h)  The Debentures converted into Common Stock shall be canceled upon
conversion.

(i)  On the Maturity Date, the unconverted principal amount of the
Debentures and all interest due thereon shall either be paid off in
full by the Company or, if payment in full is not received within two
(2) Business Days after the Maturity Date, convert automatically into
shares of Common Stock at the Conversion Price.

(j)  Each Notice of Conversion shall be given by facsimile to the
Escrow Agent no later than 4:00 pm New York time on any Business Day.
Upon receipt of such Notice of Conversion, the Escrow Agent shall
forward such Notice of Conversion to the Company by facsimile by 6:00
p.m. New York time on the day on which the Escrow Agent receives the
Notice of Conversion, at the facsimile telephone number and address of
the principal place of business of the Company.  Any such notice shall
be deemed given and effective upon the transmission of such facsimile
at the facsimile telephone number specified in the Purchase Agreement
(with printed confirmation of transmission).  In the event that the
Escrow Agent receives the Notice of Conversion after 4:00 p.m. New York
time or the Company receives the Notice of Conversion after 6:00 p.m.
New York time on such day, or the Holder receives the Company Notice of
Conversion Price Adjustment after 6:00 p.m. New York time, any such
notice shall be deemed to have been given on the next Business Day.

(h)  No adjustment under this Section 4 shall reduce the Conversion
Price below $0.01.




Section 5.  Redemption of Debentures.  (a)  At any time after the
Execution Date, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and, if a
cure period is provided,  has not been cured, the Company shall have
the option to redeem any unconverted amount of the Debentures, either
in part or whole, upon no less than thirty (30) days written notice
thereof given to the Holder with a copy to the Escrow Agent (the
"Redemption Notice"), at one hundred twenty five percent (125%) of the
unconverted amount of the Debentures plus accrued interest thereon (the
"Redemption Price").  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the
contrary, if the Company decides to redeem the outstanding principal
amount of the Debenture under the second proviso in the first sentence
of Section 4(c)(i) of this Debenture, the Company shall have three (3)
Business Days from their decision to redeem the Debenture in order to
effectuate  the redemption of such principal amount of the outstanding
Debenture.

(b)  Within three (3) Business Days prior to the date fixed for
redemption in the Redemption Notice, the Company shall deposit the
Redemption Price by wire transfer to the IOLA account of the Escrow
Agent.  Upon receipt of the Redemption Price, on such redemption date,
the Escrow Agent shall release the Redemption Price to the Holder and
return the remaining Debentures, Escrow Shares and Underlying Shares to
the Company.

(c)  In the event that the Company fails to deposit the Redemption
Price in the Escrow Agent's IOLA account number within the time
allocated in Section 5(b) hereof, then the redemption shall be declared
null and void.


Section 6.  Intentionally Omitted.


Section 7.  Absolute Payment Obligation; Limitation on Prepayment.
Except as expressly provided herein, no provision of this Debenture
shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute
and unconditional, to pay the principal of, and interest on, this
Debenture at the time, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency,
herein prescribed.  This Debenture is a direct obligation of the
Company.  This Debenture ranks pari passu with all other Debentures now
or hereafter issued under the terms set forth herein.  The Company may
not prepay any portion of the outstanding principal amount on the
Debentures except in accordance with the Purchase Agreement or Sections
4(c)(i) or 5 hereof.


Section 8.  No Rights of Stockholders.  Except as otherwise provided
herein or in the Purchase Agreement, this Debenture shall not entitle
the Holder to any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company,
including without limitation, the right to vote on or consent to any
action, to receive dividends and other distributions, or to receive any
notice of, or to attend, meetings of stockholders or any other
proceedings of the Company, unless and to the extent converted into
shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms hereof.


Section 9.  Loss, Theft, Mutilation or Destruction.  If this Debenture
shall be mutilated, lost, 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, stolen or destroyed Debenture, a new Debenture for the


principal amount of this Debenture so mutilated, lost, stolen or
destroyed but only upon receipt of an affidavit of such loss, theft or
destruction of such Debenture, and, if requested by the Company, an
agreement to indemnity the Company in form reasonably acceptable to the
Company.


Section 10.  Governing Law.  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 the principles of conflicts of law
thereof.  Any action to enforce the terms of this Debenture, the
Purchase Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall be
exclusively brought in the state and/or federal courts in the state and
county of New York.  Service of process in any action by the Holder to
enforce the terms of this Debenture may be made by serving a copy of
the summons and complaint, in addition to any other relevant documents,
by commercial overnight courier to the Company at its address set forth
in the Purchase Agreement.


Section 11.  Notices.  Any notice, request, demand, waiver, consent,
approval or other communication which is required or permitted to be
given to any party hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed
duly given only if delivered to the party personally or sent to the
party by facsimile upon electronic confirmation receipt (promptly
followed by a hard-copy delivered in accordance with this Section 12)
or three days after being mailed by registered or certified mail
(return receipt requested), with postage and registration or
certification fees thereon prepaid, or if sent by nationally recognized
overnight courier, one day after being mailed, addressed to the party
at its address as set forth in Section 7.3 of the Purchase Agreement or
such other address as may be designated hereafter by notice given
pursuant to the terms of this Section 11.


Section 12.  Waiver.  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 in
any other occurrence.  Any waiver must be in writing.


Section 13.  Invalidity.  If any provision of this Debenture is held to
be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance of this Debenture
shall remain in effect, and if any provision is held to be inapplicable
to any person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable
to all other persons and circumstances.


Section 14.  Payment Dates.  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 following Business Day.


Section 15.  Transfer; Assignment.  This Debenture may not be
transferred or assigned, in whole or in part, at any time, except in
compliance by the transferor and the transferee with applicable federal
and state securities laws.



Section 16.  Future Financing.  If, at any time this Debenture is
outstanding, the Company, or its successors in interest due to mergers,
consolidations and/or acquisitions (the "Successors-in-Interest"), is
funded an amount equal to or exceeding Five Million United States
dollars ($5,000,000), the Company or the Successors-in-Interest, as the
case may be, agrees to pay the Purchaser an amount equal to One Hundred
Fifty Percent (150%) of the then outstanding Debenture (the "Lump Sum
Payment").  Upon the Purchaser's receipt of the Lump Sum Payment, any
and all remaining obligations then outstanding between the Company or
the Successors-in-Interest, as the case may be, and Purchaser in
connection with the Purchase Agreement and this Debenture shall be deem
satisfied, and the Purchase Agreement and this Debenture shall be
terminated.  This provision shall survive both Closing and Post-
Closing.


Section 17.  Fees of Enforcement.  In the event any Party commences
legal action to enforce its rights under this Debenture, the non-
prevailing party shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses (including
but not limited to reasonable attorney's fees, accountant's fees,
appraiser's fees and investigative fees) incurred in enforcing such
rights.
