        I.

       

      Section
        1.01    Principal
        and Interest.  For value received, the
        Company hereby promises to pay to the order of the Holder on December 13,
        2007 in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately
        available funds the principal sum of One Hundred Fifty Thousand Two Hundred
        Seven U.S. Dollars and nineteen cents (US$150,207.19)
together with interest on the unpaid principal of this
        Debenture at the
        following rate:  (a) twelve percent (12%) per annum compounded monthly
        from the date hereof. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day
        year
        and the actual days elapsed.  Payment of the unpaid principal and
        interest shall be made from and upon receipt by the Company of the proceeds
        of
        accounts receivable for C-Mark Job No. 4384 (the “Job”) for Fort Bliss (the
“Account”).  The Company is hereby obligated to redirect payment by
        such Account as the Job is completed to the Holder, which shall deduct any
        fees,
        Redemption Premium (as defined herein) and interest owing and send the net
        proceeds, if any, back to the Company.

      Section
        1.03    [reserved]

       

      Section
        1.04    Redemption.  The
        Company shall pay to the Holder a Redemption Premium equal to one and one-half
        percent (1.5%) for any payments received in the first thirty days after the
        Closing Date (the “Redemption Premium”).  The Redemption Premium shall
        increase by one and one-quarter percent (1.25%) for any payments received
        during
        days thirty-one through sixty after the Closing Date and by one percent (1%)
        thereafter for each thirty days or part thereof.  By way of example,
        if payment is received sixty-one (61) days after the Closing Date, the
        Redemption Premium will be three and three-quarters percent
        (3.75%).

       

      Section
        1.05    Interest
        Payments.  The interest so payable will be paid monthly
        (the “Interest Payment Date”) to the person in whose name this Debenture is
        registered.  At the time such interest is payable, the Holder, in its
        sole discretion, may elect to receive the interest in cash (via wire
        transfer or certified funds) or in the form of Common Stock at a price mutually
        agreed upon by the Company and the Holder.  In the event of default,
        as described in Article III Section 3.01 hereunder, the Holder may
        elect that the interest be paid in cash (via wire transfer or certified funds)
        or in the form of Common Stock.  If paid in the form of Common Stock,
        the amount of stock to be issued will be calculated as follows: the value
        of the
        stock shall be the Closing Bid Price on:  (i) the date the
        interest payment is due; or (ii) if the interest payment is not made when
        due, the date the interest payment is made.  A number of shares of
        Common Stock with a value equal to the amount of interest due shall be
        issued.  No fractional shares will be issued; therefore, in the event
        that the value of the Common Stock per share does not equal the total interest
        due, the Company will pay the balance in cash.

      Section
        1.06    Paying
        Agent and Registrar.  Initially, the Company will act as
        paying agent and registrar.  The Company may change any paying agent,
        registrar, or Company-registrar by giving the Holder not less than ten (10)
        business days’ written notice of its election to do so, specifying the name,
        address, telephone number and facsimile number of the paying agent or
        registrar.  The Company may act in any such capacity.

       

      Section
        1.07    Secured
        Nature of Debenture.  This Debenture is secured by a
        direct participation in and direct right of redirection of the payments relating
        to the Account’s project being financed, which is set forth on Exhibit A to the
        Security Agreement dated the date hereof between the Company and the Holder
        (the
“Security Agreement”).  As set forth in the Security Agreement,
        Holder’s security interest shall terminate upon the occurrence of an Expiration
        Event as defined in the Security Agreement.

       

      Section
        1.08    Currency
        Exchange Rate Protections.

       

      (a)    “Closing
        Date
        Exchange Rate” means the Euro to US dollar spot exchange rate as quoted in the
        London edition of the Financial Times on the Closing Date.

       

      (b)    “Repayment
        Exchange Rate” means in relation to each date of a
        Redemption Notice, the Euro to US dollar spot exchange
        rate as quoted by in the London edition of the Financial Times on such
        date.

       

      (c)    If
        on the
        date of any Redemption Notice, the Repayment Exchange Rate is less than the
        Closing Date Exchange Rate then the number of Shares to be issued shall be
        increased by the same percentage as results from dividing the Closing Date
        Exchange Rate by the relevant Repayment Exchange Rate.  By way of
        example, if the number of Shares to be issued in respect of a particular
        Redemption Notice would, but for this Section 1.08, be 1,000 and if the Closing
        Date Exchange Rate is 1.80 and the relevant Repayment Exchange Rate is 1.75,
        then 1,029 Shares will be issued in relation to that Redemption Notice, as
        the
        case may be.

       

      (d)    If
        on the
        Repayment Date or any Interest Repayment Date, the Cash Payment Date Exchange
        Rate, as defined below is less than the Closing Date Exchange Rate then the
        amount of cash required to satisfy the amounts due at such time shall be
        increased by the same percentage as results from dividing the Closing Date
        Exchange Rate by the relevant Cash Payment Date Exchange Rate. “Cash Payment
        Date Exchange Rate” means in
        relation to each Repayment Date or Interest Repayment Date
        the Euro to US dollar spot exchange
        rate as quoted in the London edition of the Financial Times on such
        date.  By way of example, if the amount of cash required to repay all
        amounts due on such date would, but for this Section 1.08, be $1,000 and
        if the
        Closing Date Exchange Rate is 1.80 and the relevant Repayment Date Exchange
        Rate
        is 1.75 then the amount of cash from the Cash Payment required to repay all
        amounts due on such date will be $1,028.57.

      Section
        2.01    Amendments

        may not be amended.  Notwithstanding the above, without the consent of
        the Holder, the Debenture may be amended to cure any ambiguity, defect or
        inconsistency, or to provide for assumption of the Company obligations to
        the

      ARTICLE
        III.

       

      Section
        3.01    Events of
        Default.  An Event of Default is defined
        as follows: (a) failure by the Company to pay amounts due hereunder within
        fifteen (15) days of the date of maturity of this Debenture;
        (b) [reserved]; (c) [reserved]; (d) failure by the Company for
        ten (10) days after notice to it to comply with any of its other agreements
        in the Debenture; (e) events of bankruptcy or insolvency; (f) a breach
        by the Company of its obligations under the Securities Purchase Agreement
        which
        is not cured by the Company within ten (10) days after receipt of written
        notice
        thereof.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Holder may,
        in its sole discretion, accelerate full repayment of all debentures outstanding
        and accrued interest thereon or may, notwithstanding any limitations contained
        in this Debenture and/or the Securities Purchase Agreement dated the date
        hereof
        between the Company and Trafalgar Capital Specialized Investment Fund,
        Luxembourg (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”).

       

      Section
        3.02    Failure
        to
        Issue Unrestricted Common Stock. As indicated in
        Article III Section 3.01, a breach by the Company of its obligations
        under the Securities Purchase Agreement shall be deemed an Event of Default,
        which if not cured within ten (10) days, shall entitle the Holder to
        accelerate full repayment of all debentures outstanding and accrued interest
        thereon or, notwithstanding any limitations contained in this Debenture and/or
        the Securities Purchase Agreement.

      Section
        6.02    Governing
        Law.  This Debenture shall be deemed to
        be made under and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State
        of
        Florida without giving effect to the principals of conflict of laws
