This Note includes various advances (the “Advances”) that the Holder has made to the Company since July 2005.  This Note is issued as an amendment of that certain Amended and Restated 10% Series A Convertible Note dated November 29, 2007 and any notes predecessor thereto issued by the Company to the Holder prior to the Issue Date (the “Prior Notes”), and all amendments to the Prior Notes, including that certain allonge entered into between the Company and the Holder on March 5, 2007 (the “Allonge”).




1. Interest and Liquidated Damages.




1.1 Commencing on the Issue Date, this Note shall bear interest ("Interest") equal to twelve percent (12%) per annum on the unpaid principal balance, computed on a three hundred sixty (360)-day year, during the term of the Note.  Prior to the Issue Date, Interest due under the Prior Notes accrued on each Advance at a rate of ten percent (10%) per annum, commencing on the date of the Advance, as set forth on Exhibit A to this Note.  Except as set forth in Paragraph 1.2 below, the Company shall pay all accrued Interest on a quarterly basis on the fifteenth day of January, April, July and October of each year until the Maturity Date, when all accrued but unpaid Interest will be due and payable.  In no event shall the rate of Interest payable on this Note exceed the maximum rate of Interest permitted to be charged under applicable law.











1.2 On June 14, 2010 (the “Interest Payment Date”), the Company will pay Interest and Default Interest (as defined in Paragraph 11.5) accrued under this Note and the Prior Notes from February 1, 2010 through the Interest Payment Date and will prepay Interest scheduled to accrue under this Note following the Interest Payment Date through December 31, 2010 (the “Combined Interest Payment”).  On the Interest Payment Date, the Company also will pay liquidated damages due through July 31, 2010 under that certain Registration Rights Agreement dated as of November 29, 2007 between the Holder and the Company (the “November 2007 Registration Rights Agreement”). The Company will pay the Combined Interest Payment and the liquidated damages in units (“Units”) at the rate of $0.20 per Unit (the “Interest Payment Rate”).  Each Unit shall be composed of one share of the Company’s Common Stock and one Amended and Restated Class A Common Stock Purchase Warrant (the “Amended Class A Warrant”).  The Company shall pay the Combined Interest Payment and the liquidated damages by issuing ________________ Units and shall pay all accrued Interest thereafter in Units at the Interest Payment Rate.  Each Amended Class A Warrant will be exercisable to purchase one share of Common Stock at a price of $0.20 per share.  The form of Amended Class A Warrant is set forth as Exhibit C. The Company previously issued to the Holder ______________ Class A Common Stock Purchase Warrants (the “Prior Class A Warrants”) in satisfaction of Interest and Default Interest accrued under the Prior Notes through January 31, 2010 and liquidated damages due through September 30, 2008 under the November 2007 Registration Rights Agreement. Concurrently herewith, the Company will issue ___________ Amended Class A Warrants to the Holder as an amendment of such Prior Class A Warrants.




1.3 All Interest accrued but unpaid under this Note after the Interest Payment Date will, at the option of the Company, be payable in cash or in Units, valued at the Interest Payment Rate, as such term is defined in this Note; provided that, if, subsequent to the Combined Interest Payment, the Company is in default under this Note at the time an Interest payment becomes due and payable, it will be the Holder’s option as to whether to accept payment of such Interest in cash or in Units.  No fractional shares will be issued.  In lieu thereof, the Company will pay cash for fractional share amounts equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock as quoted as the closing bid price of the Common Stock on the date of payment.




1.4 The Company previously issued to the Holder ______________ Class A-1 Common Stock Purchase Warrants (the “Prior Class A-1 Warrants”) in satisfaction of the liquidated damages due the Holder through November 29, 2007 under that certain Registration Rights Agreement dated April 21, 2007 between the Holder and the Company.

1.6 Under certain conditions, upon the exercise of certain of the Prior Class A Warrants and Prior Class A-1 Warrants (collectively, the “Prior Warrants”), the Holder would have been entitled to receive an additional warrant for every two (2) shares of Common Stock purchased upon such exercise. Concurrently herewith, the Company will issue ___________ Class B Common Stock Purchase Warrants (the “Class B Warrants”) to the Holder in lieu of the warrants that would have been issuable to the Holder upon any such exercise of the Prior Warrants. The Class B Warrants will be exercisable to purchase one share of Common Stock at a price of $0.20 per share. The form of Class B Warrant is set forth as Exhibit F.  The Amended Class A Warrants, the Amended Class A-1 Warrants, the Amended Class A Principal Warrant and the Class B Warrants are referred to collectively as the “Warrants.”




1.7 Series of Notes.  This Note has been issued as an amendment of the Prior Notes and Allonge issued to the Holder. This Note is one of a series of Notes issued by the Company as of the date hereof (the “Amended Notes”) as amendments of prior notes held by their respective Holders.




2. Payments.  All payments under this Note shall first be credited against costs and expenses provided for in this Note, second to the payment of any penalties, third to the payment of accrued and unpaid Interest, if any, and the remainder shall be credited against principal.  All cash payments due hereunder shall be payable in legal tender of the United States of America, and in same day funds delivered to the Holder by cashier's check, certified check, bank wire transfer or any other means of guaranteed funds to the mailing address provided below, or at such other place as the Holder shall designate in writing for such purpose from time to time.  If a payment under this Note otherwise would become due and payable on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday (any other day being a "Business Day"), the due date of the payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and Interest, if any, shall be payable thereon during such extension.




3. Pre-Payments and Maturity Date.  This Note shall be due and payable in full, including all accrued Interest thereon, on December 31, 2010 (the "Maturity Date").  At any time on or prior to the Maturity Date, the Company shall have the right to prepay this Note, in whole or in part, on ten (10) days' advance notice to the Holder and subject to the right of the Holder to convert in advance of such prepayment date and provided that, on such prepayment date, the Company will pay in respect of the redeemed Note cash equal to the face amount plus accrued but unpaid Interest on the Note (or portion thereof) redeemed.  At any time after the Maturity Date, the Company shall have the right to repay this Note, in whole or in part, on ten (10) days' advance notice to the Holder and subject to the right of the Holder to convert in advance of such repayment date.  The Company may prepay this Note at any time after issuance without penalty.




4. Equal Rank.  This Note represents one of a series of Amended Notes that are amendments of a series of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) principal amount of 10% Series A Convertible Notes previously issued by the Company.  All Amended Notes rank equally and ratably without priority over one another.




5. Conversion of Note and Issuance of Shares.




5.1 The unpaid principal amount of this Note is convertible, at the option of the Holder, into shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Common Stock”) at any time after the Issue Date prior to the close of business on the Business Day prior to the date of repayment of such principal amount at the rate of $0.20 per share (the “Conversion Price”), subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided. No fractional shares will be issued. In lieu thereof, the Company will pay cash for fractional share amounts equal to the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of conversion.




-3-




5.2 Limitation on Conversion Rights.  Notwithstanding any other provision of Paragraph 5 to the contrary, the Holder shall not be entitled to convert this Note in excess of that number of shares of Common Stock which, upon giving effect to such conversion, would cause the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates to exceed 9.9% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock following such conversion.  For purposes of the foregoing provision, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned and those shares issuable upon conversion of this Note and all Related Notes with respect to which the determination of such proviso is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock that would be issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining principal amount of this Note and the Related Notes beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company into Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates that are subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Note.  For purposes of this Paragraph, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (a) the Company's most recent Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, as the case may be, or (b) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (c) any other written communication by the Company or its Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.  Upon the reasonable written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall promptly 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 any conversions, exercises or purchases by the Holder since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported.  Except as otherwise set forth herein, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  If the foregoing 9.9% limitation is ever reached and the Holder desires to convert this Note or part thereof into equity, the Company will acknowledge the conversion in writing, but not issue the Holder any additional shares of Common Stock at that point.  Under such circumstances the Holder will have the right to receive additional shares of Common Stock as a result of the conversion only at such point and to the extent that its beneficial ownership subsequently becomes less than 9.9% and such issuance will not cause the Holder’s beneficial ownership to exceed 9.9%.  Upon written notice to this effect given by the Holder, the Company will issue such additional shares in accordance with Paragraph 5.7, “Issuance of Certificate.”




5.3 Adjustment Based Upon Stock Dividends, Combination of Shares or Recapitalization.  The Conversion Price shall be adjusted in the event that the Company shall at any time (i) pay a stock dividend on the Common Stock; (ii) subdivide its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares; (iii) combine its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares; (iv) issue by reclassification of its Common Stock any other special capital stock of the Company; or (v) distribute to all holders of Common Stock evidences of indebtedness or assets (excluding cash dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe for Common Stock (other than those mentioned above).  No adjustment of the Conversion Price will be required until cumulative adjustments amount to One Dollar ($1.00) per Note or more.  Upon the occurrence of an event requiring adjustment of the Conversion Price, and thereafter, the Holder, upon surrender of this Note for conversion, shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of Common Stock or other capital stock of the Company that the Holder would have owned or been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above had this Note been converted immediately prior to the happening of such event.




-4-




5.4 Adjustment Based Upon Merger or Consolidation.  In case of any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party (other than a merger in which the Company is the surviving entity and which does not result in any reclassification of or change in the outstanding Common Stock of the Company), or in case of any sale or conveyance to another person, firm, or corporation of the property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, the Holder shall have the right to convert this Note into the kind and amount of securities and property (including cash) receivable upon such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance by the Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such Note might have been converted immediately prior thereto.




5.5 Exercise of Conversion Privilege.




5.5.1 The conversion right provided for in this Note shall be exercisable by the Holder by written notice to the Company or its successor and the surrender of this Note in exchange for the number of shares of Common Stock (or other securities and property, including cash, in the event of an adjustment of the Conversion Price) into which this Note is convertible based upon the Conversion Price.




5.5.2 The Holder's conversion right set forth in this Paragraph 5 may be exercised at any time and from time to time but prior to payment in full of the principal amount and the accrued Interest on this Note.  Conversion rights will expire at the close of business on the Business Day prior to the redemption date of this Note.




5.5.3 The Holder may exercise the right to convert all or any portion of the principal amount and accrued Interest on this Note by delivery of (i) this Note and (ii) a completed Conversion Notice in the form attached as Exhibit B on a Business Day to the Company's principal executive offices.  Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the Business Day of such delivery of a conversion notice (the "Conversion Date"), and the Holder shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of the shares of Common Stock into which this Note is converted as of such date.




5.5.4 Upon conversion of the entire principal amount and accrued Interest of this Note and the delivery of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note, except as otherwise provided in Paragraph 22, "Representations and Warranties to Survive Closing," the Company shall be forever released from all of its obligations and liabilities under this Note.




5.6 Corporate Status of Common Stock to be Issued.  All shares of Common Stock (or other securities in the event of an adjustment of the Conversion Price) which may be issued upon the conversion of this Note shall, upon issuance, be fully paid and nonassessable.






-5-




5.7 Issuance of Certificate.  Upon the conversion of this Note, the Company shall, within five (5) Business Days of such conversion, issue to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the number of shares of Common Stock (or other securities in the event of an adjustment of the Conversion Price) to which the conversion relates.




5.8 Price Protection.  In the event that the Company shall sell any of its equity securities or issue securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, Common Stock at a price per share that is less than $0.20 (the “New Price”), then, in such event, the Conversion Price shall automatically, and without further action on the part of the Holder or the Company, be adjusted to the New Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 5.8 shall not apply to the issuance of stock options to the Company’s management, directors, employees, consultants and advisors so long as such options are issued with exercise prices per share that are no less than the fair market value of a share of Common Stock at the time of issuance.




6. Status of Holder of Note.  This Note shall not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company or to any rights whatsoever except the rights herein expressed, and no dividends shall be payable or accrue in respect of this Note or the securities issuable upon the conversion hereof unless and until this Note shall be converted.  Upon the conversion of this Note, the Holder shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed to be the holder of record of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or that the certificates representing such shares of Common Stock shall not then be actually delivered.




7. Reserve of Shares of Common Stock.  The Company shall reserve out of its authorized shares of Common Stock, and other securities in the event of an adjustment of the Conversion Price, a number of shares sufficient to enable it to comply with its obligation to issue shares of Common Stock, and other securities in the event of an adjustment of the Conversion Price, upon the conversion of this Note.




8. Transfer Restrictions; Exemption from Registration.




8.1 The Holder agrees that (i) this Note and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and may not be sold or transferred without registration under the Act or unless an exemption from such registration is available; (ii) the Holder has acquired this Note and will acquire the Common Stock for its own account for investment purposes only and not with a view toward resale or distribution; and (iii) if a registration statement that includes the Common Stock is not effective at the time Common Stock is issued to Holder upon conversion under this Note, and the Common Stock is not exempt from registration under Rule 144, then the Common Stock shall be inscribed with the following legend:

THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR AN OPINION OF HOLDER'S COUNSEL, IN A CUSTOMARY FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER SAID ACT.




8.2 If an opinion of counsel of Holder provides that registration is not required for the proposed conversion or transfer of this Note or the proposed transfer of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion and that the proposed conversion or transfer in the absence of registration would require the Company to take any action including executing and filing forms or other documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") or any state securities agency, or delivering to the Holder any form or document in order to establish the right of the Holder to effectuate the proposed conversion or transfer, the Company agrees promptly, at its expense, to take any such action; and provided, further, that the Company will reimburse the Holder in full for any expenses (including but not limited to the fees and disbursements of such counsel, but excluding brokers' commissions) incurred by the Holder or owner of the Common Stock on his, her or its behalf in connection with such conversion or transfer of the Note or transfer of the Common Stock.




9. Registration Rights.  The Holder shall have the right, under the terms of the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement of even date herewith between the Holder and the Company, to cause the Company to register the Common Stock underlying the Warrants in a registration statement under the Act, filed by the Company with the SEC.

11.1.3 Except as set forth in Paragraphs 11.1.1 and 11.1.2, failure of the Company to perform any of the covenants, conditions, provisions or agreements contained herein, or in any other agreement between the Company and Holder, which failure continues for a period of thirty (30) days after notice of default has been given to the Company by the Holders of not less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding; provided, however, that if the nature of the Company's obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for performance, then an Event of Default shall not occur if the Company commences performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion; or

Every Note surrendered for registration of transfer shall be duly endorsed or shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the Holder or his attorney duly authorized in writing.  Every Note, so made and delivered by the Company in exchange for any Note surrendered, shall in all other respects be in the same form and have the same terms as the Note surrendered.  No transfer of any Note shall be valid unless made in such manner at the principal office of the Company.
