EXHIBIT 10.8

                     INVESTOR REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

      THIS REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this "Agreement"), dated as of October
12,  2005,  by and  among  OXFORD  VENTURES,  INC.,  a Nevada  corporation  (the
"Company"),  and the undersigned  investors listed on Schedule I attached hereto
(each, an "Investor" and collectively, the "Investors").

      WHEREAS:

      A.    In connection  with the Securities  Purchase  Agreement by and among
the parties hereto of even date herewith (the "Securities Purchase  Agreement"),
the  Company has agreed,  upon the terms and  subject to the  conditions  of the
Securities  Purchase  Agreement,  to issue and sell to the Investors (i) secured
convertible debentures (the "Convertible Debentures") which shall be convertible
into such number of shares of the Company's  common stock,  par value $0.001 per
share (the "Common Stock"), as is provided for in the Convertible Debentures and
(ii) warrants (the  "Warrants")  to purchase  5,000,000  shares of Common Stock,
pursuant to the terms of the  Securities  Purchase  Agreement  for an  aggregate
purchase price of up to Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000). Capitalized terms
not defined  herein  shall have the meaning  ascribed to them in the  Securities
Purchase Agreement.

      B.    To induce  the  Investors  to execute  and  deliver  the  Securities
Purchase  Agreement,  the  Company  has agreed to provide  certain  registration
rights  under  the  Securities  Act of  1933,  as  amended,  and the  rules  and
regulations  there under, or any similar successor  statute  (collectively,  the
"Securities Act"), and applicable state securities laws.

      NOW, THEREFORE,  in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants
contained  herein and other good and  valuable  consideration,  the  receipt and
sufficiency  of which are hereby  acknowledged,  the Company  and the  Investors
hereby agree as follows:

      1.    DEFINITIONS.

      As used in this  Agreement,  the following  terms shall have the following
meanings:

            (a)   "Person" means a corporation,  a limited liability company, an
association,  a partnership,  an  organization,  a business,  an  individual,  a
governmental or political subdivision thereof or a governmental agency.

            (b)   "Register,"   "registered,"  and  "registration"  refer  to  a
registration   effected  by  preparing  and  filing  one  or  more  Registration
Statements (as defined below) in compliance with the Securities Act and pursuant
to Rule 415  under  the  Securities  Act or any  successor  rule  providing  for
offering  securities  on a continuous  or delayed  basis ("Rule  415"),  and the
declaration or ordering of  effectiveness of such  Registration  Statement(s) by
the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

            (c)   "Registrable  Securities"  means the Conversion Shares and the
Warrant Shares, as this term is defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement.

<PAGE>

            (d)   "Registration  Statement" means a registration statement under
the Securities Act which covers the Registrable Securities.

      2.    REGISTRATION.

            (a)   Subject to the terms and  conditions  of this  Agreement,  the
Company shall prepare and file, no later than forty five (45) days from the date
hereof (the "Scheduled Filing Deadline"),  with the SEC a registration statement
on Form S-1 or SB-2 (or, if the Company is then eligible, on Form S-3) under the
Securities  Act (the  "Initial  Registration  Statement")  for the resale by the
Investors of the  Registrable  Securities,  which  includes at least  30,000,000
Conversion  Shares to be issued  upon  conversion  of and/or  default  under the
Convertible  Debentures and 5,000,000  Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise
of the Warrants.  The Company shall keep the Registration  Statement "Evergreen"
for  the  life  of the  Convertible  Debentures  or  until  Rule  144(k)  of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, is available to the Investor with respect to
all of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares, whichever is later. The Company
shall retain,  and pay at its sole expense,  a law firm to file the Registration
Statement from a list of approved law firms  provided by the Investor.  Prior to
the filing of the Registration Statement with the SEC, the Company shall furnish
a copy of the Initial  Registration  Statement to the Investors for their review
and comment.  The Investors shall furnish  comments on the Initial  Registration
Statement to the Company within  twenty-four  (24) hours of the receipt  thereof
from the Company.

            (b)   Effectiveness  of  the  Initial  Registration  Statement.  The
Company  shall  use its  best  efforts  (i) to  have  the  Initial  Registration
Statement  declared  effective by the SEC no later than one hundred  fifty (150)
days after the date  filed  (the  "Scheduled  Effective  Deadline")  and (ii) to
insure that the Initial Registration  Statement and any subsequent  Registration
Statement  remains in effect until all of the  Registrable  Securities have been
sold,  subject to the terms and  conditions  of this  Agreement.  It shall be an
event of default hereunder if the Initial Registration Statement is not declared
effective by the SEC within one hundred fifty (150) days after filing thereof.

            (c)   Failure to File or Obtain  Effectiveness  of the  Registration
Statement. In the event the Registration Statement is not filed by the Scheduled
Filing  Deadline  or is not  declared  effective  by the  SEC on or  before  the
Scheduled  Effective Deadline,  or if after the Registration  Statement has been
declared effective by the SEC, sales cannot be made pursuant to the Registration
Statement  (whether  because  of a failure  to keep the  Registration  Statement
effective,  failure to disclose such information as is necessary for sales to be
made  pursuant to the  Registration  Statement,  failure to register  sufficient
shares of Common  Stock or otherwise  then as partial  relief for the damages to
any holder of Registrable Securities by reason of any such delay in or reduction
of its ability to sell the underlying shares of Common Stock (which remedy shall
not be  exclusive of any other  remedies at law or in equity),  the Company will
pay as liquidated  damages (the "Liquidated  Damages") and not as a penalty,  to
the holder, a cash amount equal to two percent (2%) per month of the outstanding
principal amount of the Convertible Debentures outstanding.  The initial payment
of Liquidated  Damages shall be made within three (3) business days from the end
of the month in which the  Scheduled  Filing  Deadline  or  Scheduled  Effective
Deadline  occurred,   and  shall  continue  thereafter  until  the  Registration
Statement is filed or declared effective as the case may be.

                                       2
<PAGE>

            (d)   Liquidated  Damages.  The  Company  and  the  Investor  hereto
acknowledge  and agree that the sums payable under  subsection  2(c) above shall
constitute liquidated damages and not penalties and are in addition to all other
rights of the  Investor,  including  the right to call a  default.  The  parties
further acknowledge that (i) the amount of loss or damages likely to be incurred
is incapable or is difficult to precisely  estimate,  (ii) the amounts specified
in such  subsection  bear a reasonable  relationship  to, and are not plainly or
grossly  disproportionate  to,  the  probable  loss  likely  to be  incurred  in
connection  with any failure by the Company to file a Registration  Statement or
to obtain or maintain the effectiveness of a Registration  Statement,  (iii) one
of the reasons for the Company and the Investor reaching an agreement as to such
amounts was the  uncertainty  and cost of  litigation  regarding the question of
actual damages, and (iv) the Company and the Investor are sophisticated business
parties and have been  represented by  sophisticated  and able legal counsel and
negotiated this Agreement at arm's length.

      3.    RELATED OBLIGATIONS.

            (a)   The Company shall keep the  Registration  Statement  effective
pursuant  to Rule 415 at all times  until the date on which the  Investor  shall
have sold all the Registrable  Securities covered by such Registration Statement
(the  "Registration  Period"),   which  Registration  Statement  (including  any
amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses  contained therein) shall not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
required to be stated therein,  or necessary to make the statements  therein, in
light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading.

            (b)   The  Company   shall  prepare  and  file  with  the  SEC  such
amendments   (including   post-effective   amendments)   and  supplements  to  a
Registration   Statement  and  the  prospectus  used  in  connection  with  such
Registration  Statement,  which  prospectus is to be filed  pursuant to Rule 424
promulgated  under  the  Securities  Act,  as  may be  necessary  to  keep  such
Registration  Statement  effective at all times during the Registration  Period,
and,  during such period,  comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with
respect to the disposition of all Registrable  Securities of the Company covered
by such  Registration  Statement  until  such  time  as all of such  Registrable
Securities  shall have been disposed of in accordance with the intended  methods
of  disposition  by  the  seller  or  sellers  thereof  as  set  forth  in  such
Registration  Statement.  In  the  case  of  amendments  and  supplements  to  a
Registration Statement which are required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement
(including  pursuant to this Section 3(b)) by reason of the  Company's  filing a
report on Form 10-KSB, Form 10-QSB or Form 8-K or any analogous report under the
Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange  Act"),  the Company
shall incorporate such report by reference into the Registration  Statement,  if
applicable,  or shall file such  amendments or  supplements  with the SEC on the
same day on which the Exchange Act report is filed which created the requirement
for the Company to amend or supplement the Registration Statement.

            (c)   The Company shall furnish to each Investor  whose  Registrable
Securities are included in any Registration  Statement,  without charge,  (i) at
least one (1) copy of such Registration  Statement as declared  effective by the
SEC and any amendment(s) thereto,  including financial statements and schedules,
all  documents  incorporated  therein  by  reference,   all  exhibits  and  each
preliminary prospectus, (ii) ten (10) copies of the final prospectus included in
such Registration  Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (or such
other number of copies as such Investor may  reasonably  request) and (iii) such
other  documents as such  Investor may  reasonably  request from time to time in
order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable  Securities owned by such
Investor.

                                       3
<PAGE>

            (d)   The Company  shall use its best  efforts to (i)  register  and
qualify the  Registrable  Securities  covered by a Registration  Statement under
such other  securities  or "blue sky" laws of such  jurisdictions  in the United
States as any  Investor  reasonably  requests,  (ii)  prepare  and file in those
jurisdictions,   such  amendments  (including  post-effective   amendments)  and
supplements  to such  registrations  and  qualifications  as may be necessary to
maintain the effectiveness  thereof during the Registration  Period,  (iii) take
such other  actions as may be  necessary  to  maintain  such  registrations  and
qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration  Period,  and (iv)
take all  other  actions  reasonably  necessary  or  advisable  to  qualify  the
Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions;  provided,  however, that
the  Company  shall not be required in  connection  therewith  or as a condition
thereto to (w) make any change to its articles of incorporation or by-laws,  (x)
qualify to do  business  in any  jurisdiction  where it would not  otherwise  be
required to qualify but for this  Section  3(d),  (y) subject  itself to general
taxation in any such  jurisdiction,  or (z) file a general consent to service of
process  in any such  jurisdiction.  The  Company  shall  promptly  notify  each
Investor who holds  Registrable  Securities of the receipt by the Company of any
notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or qualification
of any of the Registrable Securities for sale under the securities or "blue sky"
laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or its receipt of actual notice of
the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose.

            (e)   As promptly as practicable  after becoming aware of such event
or  development,  the  Company  shall  notify  each  Investor  in writing of the
happening  of any  event  as a result  of which  the  prospectus  included  in a
Registration  Statement,  as then in effect,  includes an untrue  statement of a
material fact or omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under
which they were  made,  not  misleading  (provided  that in no event  shall such
notice  contain any material,  nonpublic  information),  and promptly  prepare a
supplement  or amendment to such  Registration  Statement to correct such untrue
statement  or  omission,  and  deliver  ten (10)  copies of such  supplement  or
amendment to each Investor.  Notwithstanding  any provision of this Agreement to
the contrary, if the Company makes such a notification,  the Company may suspend
the use of any prospectus  contained in any  Registration  Statement for periods
not to exceed  forty five (45)  business  days in any three month  period or two
periods not to exceed an aggregate of ninety (90)  business days in any 12 month
period  in the  event  that  the  Company  determines,  in the  exercise  of its
reasonable  discretion,  confirmed by a legal opinion from outside counsel, that
sales of Registrable  Securities  thereunder could constitute  violations of the
Securities Act due to the Registration  Statement containing an untrue statement
of a material  fact or omission to state a material  fact  required to be stated
therein  or  necessary  to  make  the  statements   therein,  in  light  of  the
circumstances  under  which they were  made,  not  misleading.  In each case the
Company shall use  commercially  reasonable  efforts to remedy the deficiency in
the  Registration  Statement within thirty (30) business days. The Company shall
also  promptly  notify each  Investor in writing  (i) when a  prospectus  or any
prospectus  supplement or  post-effective  amendment has been filed,  and when a
Registration  Statement or any  post-effective  amendment  has become  effective
(notification  of such  effectiveness  shall be  delivered  to each  Investor by
facsimile on the same day of such effectiveness), (ii) of any request by the SEC
for amendments or supplements to a Registration  Statement or related prospectus
or related information, and (iii) of the Company's reasonable determination that
a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement would be appropriate.

                                       4

            (f)   The Company shall use its best efforts to prevent the issuance
of any  stop  order or  other  suspension  of  effectiveness  of a  Registration
Statement,  or the  suspension of the  qualification  of any of the  Registrable
Securities for sale in any jurisdiction within the United States of America and,
if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order
or  suspension at the earliest  possible  moment and to notify each Investor who
holds  Registrable  Securities  being sold of the issuance of such order and the
resolution  thereof or its receipt of actual notice of the  initiation or threat
of any proceeding for such purpose.

            (g)   The Company  shall make  available  for  inspection by (i) any
Investor and (ii) one (1) firm of  accountants  or other agents  retained by the
Investors  (collectively,  the "Inspectors")  all pertinent  financial and other
records,  and  pertinent  corporate  documents  and  properties  of the  Company
(collectively,  the "Records"),  as shall be reasonably deemed necessary by each
Inspector,  and cause the Company's officers,  directors and employees to supply
all information which any Inspector may reasonably request;  provided,  however,
that each Inspector  shall agree,  and each Investor  hereby agrees,  to hold in
strict  confidence and shall not make any disclosure  (except to an Investor) or
use any Record or other information  which the Company  determines in good faith
to be confidential,  and of which  determination the Inspectors are so notified,
unless (a) the  disclosure  of such  Records is  necessary to avoid or correct a
misstatement or omission in any Registration  Statement or is otherwise required
under the Securities Act, (b) the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to
a final,  non-appealable  subpoena or order from a court or  government  body of
competent  jurisdiction,  or (c) the  information  in such Records has been made
generally  available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this
or any other  agreement of which the Inspector  and the Investor has  knowledge.
Each  Investor  agrees that it shall,  upon  learning  that  disclosure  of such
Records  is  sought  in  or  by  a  court  or  governmental  body  of  competent
jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to the Company and allow
the  Company,  at its  expense,  to  undertake  appropriate  action  to  prevent
disclosure  of,  or to  obtain  a  protective  order  for,  the  Records  deemed
confidential.

            (h)   The  Company  shall  hold  in  confidence  and  not  make  any
disclosure of information  concerning an Investor provided to the Company unless
(i) disclosure of such  information is necessary to comply with federal or state
securities  laws, (ii) the disclosure of such  information is necessary to avoid
or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration  Statement,  (iii) the
release of such  information  is ordered  pursuant to a subpoena or other final,
non-appealable   order  from  a  court  or   governmental   body  of   competent
jurisdiction,  or (iv) such information has been made generally available to the
public other than by  disclosure  in  violation  of this  Agreement or any other
agreement.  The Company agrees that it shall,  upon learning that  disclosure of
such  information  concerning  an  Investor  is  sought  in  or  by a  court  or
governmental body of competent  jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt
written  notice to such  Investor  and allow such  Investor,  at the  Investor's
expense, to undertake  appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain
a protective order for, such information.

                                       5
<PAGE>

            (i)   The Company shall use its best efforts either to cause all the
Registrable  Securities covered by a Registration  Statement (i) to be listed on
each securities  exchange on which securities of the same class or series issued
by the Company  are then  listed,  if any,  if the  listing of such  Registrable
Securities  is then  permitted  under the rules of such  exchange  or (ii) to be
included for quotation on the National  Association of Securities Dealers,  Inc.
OTC Bulletin Board for such  Registrable  Securities.  The Company shall pay all
fees and  expenses in  connection  with  satisfying  its  obligation  under this
Section 3(j).

            (j)   The  Company  shall  cooperate  with  the  Investors  who hold
Registrable  Securities  being  offered  and,  to  the  extent  applicable,   to
facilitate the timely  preparation  and delivery of certificates to a transferee
of an Investor (not bearing any restrictive legend) representing the Registrable
Securities to be offered  pursuant to a  Registration  Statement and enable such
certificates to be in such denominations or amounts,  as the case may be, as the
Investors may  reasonably  request and registered in such names as the Investors
may request.

            (k)   The  Company   shall  use  its  best   efforts  to  cause  the
Registrable  Securities covered by the applicable  Registration  Statement to be
registered with or approved by such other  governmental  agencies or authorities
as  may  be  necessary  to  consummate  the  disposition  of  such   Registrable
Securities.

            (l)   The Company  shall make  generally  available  to its security
holders  as soon as  practical,  but not later than  ninety  (90) days after the
close of the period covered  thereby,  an earnings  statement (in form complying
with the provisions of Rule 158 under the Securities Act) covering a twelve (12)
month  period  beginning  not later than the first day of the  Company's  fiscal
quarter next following the effective date of the Registration Statement.

            (m)   The Company  shall  otherwise  use its best  efforts to comply
with all  applicable  rules and  regulations  of the SEC in connection  with any
registration hereunder.

            (n)   Within two (2) business  days after a  Registration  Statement
which  covers  Registrable  Securities  is declared  effective  by the SEC,  the
Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel for the Company to deliver,
to the  transfer  agent  for such  Registrable  Securities  (with  copies to the
Investors  whose  Registrable  Securities  are  included  in  such  Registration
Statement)  confirmation  that such  Registration  Statement  has been  declared
effective by the SEC in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

      4.    OBLIGATIONS OF THE INVESTORS.

      Each Investor  agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of
the  happening  of any event of the kind  described in Section 3(f) or the first
sentence of Section 3(e), such Investor will immediately discontinue disposition
of Registrable  Securities  pursuant to any Registration  Statement(s)  covering
such Registrable  Securities until such Investor's  receipt of the copies of the
supplemented  or amended  prospectus  contemplated by Section 3(e) or receipt of
notice  from  the  Company  that  no   supplement   or  amendment  is  required.
Notwithstanding  anything to the contrary,  the Company shall cause its transfer
agent to  deliver  unlegended  certificates  for  shares  of  Common  Stock to a
transferee  of an  Investor  in  accordance  with the  terms  of the  Securities
Purchase  Agreement in connection  with any sale of Registrable  Securities with
respect to which an Investor  has entered  into a contract for sale prior to the
Investor's receipt of a notice from the Company of the happening of any event of
the kind  described in Section 3(f) or the first  sentence of 3(e) and for which
the Investor has not yet settled.

      5.    EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION.

      All  expenses  incurred  in  connection  with  registrations,  filings  or
qualifications pursuant to Sections 2 and 3, including,  without limitation, all
registration,  listing and qualifications fees,  printers,  legal and accounting

      6.    INDEMNIFICATION.

      With  respect  to   Registrable   Securities   which  are  included  in  a
Registration Statement under this Agreement:

            (a)   To the fullest extent  permitted by law, the Company will, and
hereby does, indemnify,  hold harmless and defend each Investor,  the directors,
officers, partners,  employees, agents,  representatives of, and each Person, if
any, who controls any Investor  within the meaning of the  Securities Act or the
Exchange  Act (each,  an  "Indemnified  Person"),  against any  losses,  claims,
damages,  liabilities,  judgments, fines, penalties,  charges, costs, reasonable
attorneys'  fees,  amounts  paid in  settlement  or  expenses,  joint or several
(collectively,  "Claims") incurred in investigating,  preparing or defending any
action, claim, suit, inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the
foregoing  by or  before  any  court or  governmental,  administrative  or other
regulatory  agency,  body or the SEC, whether pending or threatened,  whether or
not an indemnified party is or may be a party thereto  ("Indemnified  Damages"),
to which any of them may become  subject  insofar as such  Claims (or actions or
proceedings,  whether commenced or threatened,  in respect thereof) arise out of
or are based upon:  (i) any untrue  statement or alleged  untrue  statement of a
material  fact  in a  Registration  Statement  or any  post-effective  amendment
thereto  or in any  filing  made in  connection  with the  qualification  of the
offering  under the securities or other "blue sky" laws of any  jurisdiction  in
which Registrable Securities are offered ("Blue Sky Filing"), or the omission or
alleged  omission  to state a material  fact  required  to be stated  therein or
necessary  to make the  statements  therein  not  misleading;  (ii)  any  untrue
statement or alleged untrue  statement of a material fact contained in any final
prospectus  (as  amended or  supplemented,  if the Company  files any  amendment
thereof or supplement  thereto with the SEC) or the omission or alleged omission
to state  therein  any  material  fact  necessary  to make the  statements  made
therein,  in light of the circumstances  under which the statements therein were
made, not misleading; or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company
of the  Securities  Act, the Exchange  Act,  any other law,  including,  without
limitation,  any state  securities  law, or any rule or  regulation  there under
relating  to the  offer  or sale of the  Registrable  Securities  pursuant  to a
Registration  Statement (the matters in the foregoing  clauses (i) through (iii)
being,  collectively,  "Violations").  The Company shall reimburse the Investors
and each such controlling  person promptly as such expenses are incurred and are
due and  payable,  for any  legal  fees or  disbursements  or  other  reasonable
expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such
Claim.   Notwithstanding   anything  to  the  contrary   contained  herein,  the
indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a): (x) shall not apply to
a Claim by an Indemnified  Person arising out of or based upon a Violation which
occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information  furnished in writing
to the Company by such  Indemnified  Person expressly for use in connection with

                                       7
<PAGE>

the preparation of the Registration  Statement or any such amendment  thereof or
supplement thereto; (y) shall not be available to the extent such Claim is based
on a  failure  of the  Investor  to  deliver  or to  cause to be  delivered  the
prospectus  made  available by the Company,  if such  prospectus was timely made
available by the Company  pursuant to Section  3(c);  and (z) shall not apply to
amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such  settlement is effected  without
the  prior  written  consent  of  the  Company,   which  consent  shall  not  be
unreasonably  withheld.  Such  indemnity  shall  remain in full force and effect
regardless of any investigation  made by or on behalf of the Indemnified  Person
and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors.

            (b)   In connection  with a  Registration  Statement,  each Investor
agrees to severally and not jointly indemnify,  hold harmless and defend, to the
same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in Section 6(a), the Company,
each of its  directors,  each of its officers,  employees,  representatives,  or
agents and each Person,  if any, who controls the Company  within the meaning of
the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each an  "Indemnified  Party"),  against
any Claim or Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject,  under
the  Securities  Act, the Exchange  Act or  otherwise,  insofar as such Claim or
Indemnified Damages arise out of or is based upon any Violation, in each case to
the extent, and only to the extent,  that such Violation occurs in reliance upon
and in  conformity  with  written  information  furnished to the Company by such
Investor expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement;  and,
subject  to  Section  6(d),  such  Investor  will  reimburse  any legal or other
expenses  reasonably  incurred  by  them in  connection  with  investigating  or
defending  any such  Claim;  provided,  however,  that the  indemnity  agreement
contained in this Section 6(b) and the  agreement  with respect to  contribution
contained  in Section 7 shall not apply to  amounts  paid in  settlement  of any
Claim if such  settlement is effected  without the prior written consent of such
Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld;  provided,  further,
however, that the Investor shall be liable under this Section 6(b) for only that
amount of a Claim or Indemnified  Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to
such Investor as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such
Registration  Statement.  Such  indemnity  shall remain in full force and effect
regardless of any  investigation  made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party
and shall survive the transfer of the  Registrable  Securities by the Investors.
Notwithstanding  anything to the contrary contained herein, the  indemnification
agreement  contained in this Section 6(b) with respect to any  prospectus  shall
not inure to the benefit of any  Indemnified  Party if the untrue  statement  or
omission of material fact contained in the prospectus was corrected and such new
prospectus  was delivered to each Investor  prior to such  Investor's use of the
prospectus to which the Claim relates.

            (c)   Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified
Party  under  this  Section  6 of notice of the  commencement  of any  action or
proceeding  (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim,
such  Indemnified  Person or  Indemnified  Party  shall,  if a Claim in  respect
thereof is to be made  against  any  indemnifying  party  under this  Section 6,
deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement  thereof,
and the  indemnifying  party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the
extent the indemnifying  party so desires,  jointly with any other  indemnifying
party similarly  noticed,  to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel
mutually  satisfactory to the indemnifying  party and the Indemnified  Person or
the  Indemnified  Party,  as  the  case  may  be;  provided,  however,  that  an
Indemnified  Person or Indemnified  Party shall have the right to retain its own
counsel  with the fees and  expenses  of not more than one (1)  counsel for such

                                       8
<PAGE>

Indemnified  Person or Indemnified  Party to be paid by the indemnifying  party,
if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the
representation  by such counsel of the Indemnified  Person or Indemnified  Party
and the  indemnifying  party would be  inappropriate  due to actual or potential
differing interests between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and any
other party  represented  by such counsel in such  proceeding.  The  Indemnified
Party or Indemnified Person shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in
connection  with any  negotiation  or defense of any such action or claim by the
indemnifying  party and shall furnish to the indemnifying  party all information
reasonably  available  to the  Indemnified  Party or  Indemnified  Person  which
relates  to such  action  or  claim.  The  indemnifying  party  shall  keep  the
Indemnified  Party or  Indemnified  Person fully apprised at all times as to the
status of the defense or any settlement  negotiations  with respect thereto.  No
indemnifying  party shall be liable for any  settlement of any action,  claim or
proceeding effected without its prior written consent;  provided,  however, that
the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably  withhold,  delay or condition its
consent.  No indemnifying party shall,  without the prior written consent of the
Indemnified  Party or  Indemnified  Person,  consent to entry of any judgment or
enter into any  settlement  or other  compromise  which  does not  include as an
unconditional  term  thereof  the giving by the  claimant or  plaintiff  to such
Indemnified  Party or  Indemnified  Person of a release  from all  liability  in
respect to such claim or litigation.  Following  indemnification as provided for
hereunder,  the  indemnifying  party  shall be  subrogated  to all rights of the
Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms
or corporations  relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made.
The  failure  to  deliver  written  notice to the  indemnifying  party  within a
reasonable  time of the  commencement  of any such action shall not relieve such
indemnifying  party of any liability to the  Indemnified  Person or  Indemnified
Party under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying  party is
prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

            (d)   The  indemnification  required by this Section 6 shall be made
by  periodic   payments  of  the  amount   thereof  during  the  course  of  the
investigation or defense,  as and when bills are received or Indemnified Damages
are incurred.

            (e)   The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition
to (i) any  cause  of  action  or  similar  right  of the  Indemnified  Party or
Indemnified  Person  against  the  indemnifying  party or  others,  and (ii) any
liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

      7.    CONTRIBUTION.

      To the extent any  indemnification  by an indemnifying party is prohibited
or  limited  by  law,  the  indemnifying   party  agrees  to  make  the  maximum
contribution  with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable
under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that:
(i) no seller of Registrable  Securities guilty of fraudulent  misrepresentation
(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to
contribution  from any seller of  Registrable  Securities  who was not guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation; and (ii) contribution by any seller of Registrable
Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds  received by
such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities.

      8.    REPORTS UNDER THE EXHANGE ACT.

      With a view to making  available to the Investors the benefits of Rule 144
promulgated  under the  Securities  Act or any similar rule or regulation of the
SEC that may at any time permit the Investors to sell  securities of the Company
to the public without registration ("Rule 144") the Company agrees to:

            (a)   make and keep public information available, as those terms are
understood and defined in Rule 144;

            (b)   file with the SEC in a timely  manner  all  reports  and other
documents  required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act
so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements (it being understood
that nothing herein shall limit the Company's  obligations under Section 4(c) of
the  Securities  Purchase  Agreement)  and the filing of such  reports and other
documents as are required by the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and

            (c)   furnish  to  each  Investor  so long  as  such  Investor  owns
Registrable  Securities,  promptly upon request,  (i) a written statement by the
Company that it has complied  with the reporting  requirements  of Rule 144, the
Securities  Act and the Exchange  Act,  (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or
quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by
the Company,  and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to
permit  the  Investors  to sell such  securities  pursuant  to Rule 144  without
registration.

      9.    AMENDMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

      Provisions of this Agreement may be amended and the observance thereof may
be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively
or  prospectively),  only with the written  consent of the Company and Investors
who then  hold at least  two-thirds  (2/3) of the  Registrable  Securities.  Any
amendment or waiver  effected in accordance with this Section 9 shall be binding
upon each Investor and the Company.  No such amendment shall be effective to the
extent  that it  applies to fewer  than all of the  holders  of the  Registrable
Securities.  No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or
consent to a waiver or  modification  of any provision of any of this  Agreement
unless the same  consideration  also is  offered  to all of the  parties to this
Agreement.

      10.   MISCELLANEOUS.

            (a)   A Person is deemed  to be a holder of  Registrable  Securities
whenever  such  Person  owns or is  deemed  to own of  record  such  Registrable
Securities.  If  the  Company  receives  conflicting  instructions,  notices  or
elections  from two (2) or more  Persons  with  respect to the same  Registrable
Securities,  the  Company  shall act upon the basis of  instructions,  notice or
election received from the registered owner of such Registrable Securities.

            (b)   Any  notices,   consents,   waivers  or  other  communications
required or permitted to be given under the terms of this  Agreement  must be in

                            OF REGISTRATION STATEMENT

Attention:

      Re:   OXFORD VENTURES, INC.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

      We are  counsel  to  Oxford  Ventures,  Inc.,  a Nevada  corporation  (the
"Company"),  and have  represented  the Company in connection  with that certain
Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Securities Purchase Agreement") entered into
by and among the Company and the  investors  named  therein  (collectively,  the
"Investors") pursuant to which the Company issued to the Investors shares of its
Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common  Stock").  Pursuant to the
Purchase  Agreement,  the Company  also has entered into a  Registration  Rights
Agreement  with the Investors  (the "Investor  Registration  Rights  Agreement")
pursuant  to which the  Company  agreed,  among other  things,  to register  the
Registrable  Securities (as defined in the Registration  Rights Agreement) under
the Securities  Act of 1933, as amended (the  "Securities  Act").  In connection
with the Company's  obligations  under the  Registration  Rights  Agreement,  on
____________  ____, the Company filed a Registration  Statement on Form ________
(File No.  333-_____________) (the "Registration Statement") with the Securities
and Exchange SEC (the "SEC") relating to the Registrable  Securities which names
each of the Investors as a selling stockholder there under.

      In connection with the foregoing, we advise you that a member of the SEC's
staff has advised us by  telephone  that the SEC has entered an order  declaring
the Registration  Statement effective under the Securities Act at [ENTER TIME OF
EFFECTIVENESS] on [ENTER DATE OF EFFECTIVENESS] and we have no knowledge,  after
telephonic  inquiry  of a  member  of the  SEC's  staff,  that  any  stop  order
suspending its  effectiveness  has been issued or that any  proceedings for that
purpose  are  pending  before,  or  threatened  by, the SEC and the  Registrable
Securities  are  available for resale under the  Securities  Act pursuant to the
Registration Statement.

                                           Very truly yours,

                                           [LAW FIRM]

                                           By:

ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"),  OR THE SECURITIES  LAWS OF ANY STATE.  THE
SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD UNLESS THE SECURITIES ARE REGISTERED UNDER

No. HHF-001                                                         US$3,000,000

      This Secured  Debenture  (the  "Debenture")  is issued on October __, 2005
(the  "Closing  Date") by  Oxford  Ventures,  Inc.,  a Nevada  corporation  (the
"Company"),   to  Highgate  House  Funds,  Ltd.  (together  with  its  permitted
successors and assigns,  the "Holder")  pursuant to exemptions from registration
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,  pursuant to a Securities Purchase
Agreement,  dated October __, 2005 (the "Securities  Purchase  Agreement") among
the Company and Buyer(s) listed on Schedule I thereto.

                                   ARTICLE I.

      SECTION 1.01  PRINCIPAL  AND  INTEREST.  For value  received,  the Company
hereby  promises to pay to the order of the Holder on the date  October __, 2007
("Maturity  Date"),  in lawful  money of the  United  States of  America  and in
immediately   available  funds  the  principal  sum  of  Three  Million  Dollars
($3,000,000),  together with interest on the unpaid  principal of this Debenture
at the rate of ten percent (10%) per year (compounded  monthly) from the date of
this Debenture  until paid. The Company will begin making monthly  interest only
payments on the Note of accrued  interest  every thirty (30) days  following the
Closing  Date.  At the  Holder's  option,  the entire  principal  amount and all
accrued and unpaid interest and the Redemption Premium specified in Section 1.05
hereof  shall be  either  (a) paid to the  Holder  on the  Maturity  Date or (b)
converted in accordance with Section 1.02 herein.

<PAGE>

      SECTION 1.02 OPTIONAL CONVERSION.  The Holder is entitled,  at its option,
to convert,  and sell on the same day, at any time and from time to time,  until
payment in full of this  Debenture,  all or any part of the principal  amount of
the Debenture,  plus accrued interest,  into shares (the "Conversion Shares") of
the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Common Stock"),  at the
price per share equal to $1.50 (the "Conversion  Price").  No fraction of shares
or scrip representing fractions of shares will be issued on conversion,  but the
number of shares  issuable  shall be  rounded to the  nearest  whole  share.  To
convert this Debenture,  the Holder hereof shall deliver written notice thereof,
substantially  in the form of  Exhibit  A to this  Debenture,  with  appropriate
insertions  (the  "Conversion  Notice"),  to the Escrow Agent (as defined in the
Securities  Purchase  Agreement)  and the  Company  at its  address as set forth
herein.  The date upon which the conversion  shall be effective (the "Conversion
Date") shall be deemed to be the date set forth in the  Conversion  Notice.  The
Holder has the right to convert this Debenture  after the Maturity Date.  Absent
manifest  error;  the Escrow Agent shall release the shares of Common Stock from
escrow on the third (3rd) business day following the Escrow Agent  notifying the
Company of the  conversion.  Any  conversion  of any portion of the Debenture to
Common Stock shall be deemed to be a pre-payment  of principal  plus accrued and
unpaid interest,  without any penalty,  and shall be credited against any future
payments of principal  and interest in the order that such  payments  become due
and payable.

      Section 1.03. MONTHLY PAYMENTS. The interest so payable will be paid every
thirty (30) days  following the Closing Date.  This  Debenture  ranks pari passu
with all other  Debentures now or hereinafter  issued pursuant to the Securities
Purchase  Agreement.  In the event of  default,  as  described  in 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.

      The Company shall make monthly scheduled payments  ("Scheduled  Payments")
consisting of principal and accrued interest.  The first Scheduled Payment shall
be due and  payable on the date one hundred  eighty  (180) days from the Closing
Date. After the first Scheduled Payment, each subsequent Scheduled Payment shall
be due and payable on the same day of each  subsequent  calendar month until the
Maturity  Date.  The  principal  amount  of  each  Scheduled  Payment  shall  be
determined by dividing the outstanding  principal amount of this Debenture as of
the date of such Scheduled Payment by the number of Scheduled Payments remaining
until the  Maturity  Date plus a repayment  premium  equal to five  percent (5%)
("Repayment  Premium") of the amount of the principal  payment.  All payments in
respect of the  indebtedness  evidenced hereby shall be made in collected funds,
and shall be applied to  principal,  accrued  interest  and charges and expenses
owing under or in  connection  with this  Debenture  in such order as the Holder
elects,  except  that  payments  shall be  applied to  accrued  interest  before
principal.

                                       2

      In the event that the Company redeems a portion of the amount  outstanding
under this Debenture,  or the Holder converts a portion of the principal  amount
outstanding and accrued  interest under this Debenture as  contemplated  herein,
the  Company  shall be  entitled  to an off-set of the amount of  principal  and
accrued  interest due pursuant to the  Schedule  Payment  equal to the amount of
principal and accrued interest redeemed or converted (the "Off-Set Amount").  In
such event the Company  shall  still be  obligated  to make a Scheduled  Payment
reduced by the Off-Set Amount as contemplated hereunder.

      So long as this  Debenture is held by Highgate  House  Funds,  Ltd. or its
affiliates (as defined in Rule 144 promulgated  under the Act, as amended),  the
Company may not redeem this  Debenture  with the proceeds of the Standby  Equity
Distribution Agreement between the Company and Cornell Capital Partners, LP.

      Section 1.04  RESERVATION OF COMMON STOCK. As set forth in Section 6(c) of
the Securities Purchase Agreement,  the Company shall reserve and keep available
out of its  authorized  but  unissued  shares of Common  Stock,  solely  for the
purpose of effecting the conversion of this Debenture,  that number of shares of
Common  Stock  equal to a  multiple  of five (5) times  the  number of shares of
Common  Stock into which the  Debenture is  convertible  from time to time based
upon the Conversion Price. If at any time the Company does not have a sufficient
number of Conversion  Shares  authorized and  available,  then the Company shall
call and hold a special meeting of its  stockholders  within thirty (30) days of
that time for the sole purpose of increasing the number of authorized  shares of
Common Stock.

      Section 1.05 RIGHT OF REDEMPTION. The Company at its option shall have the
right to redeem,  with three (3)  business  days  advance  written  notice  (the
"Redemption Notice"), a portion or all of the outstanding Convertible Debenture.
The redemption price shall be One Hundred Twenty percent (120%) (the "Redemption
Price") of the face amount redeemed plus accrued interest. The Company shall pay
the  Redemption  Price on all payments made prior to a Scheduled  Payment or any
other payment due date.  For all payments under this  Debenture,  the payment of
the Redemption Price by the Company shall be in addition to any accrued interest
due.

      Section 1.06 REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The Company is obligated to register the
resale  of the  Conversion  Shares  under  the Act,  pursuant  to the terms of a
Investor  Registration  Rights  Agreement,  between the Company and the Buyer(s)
listed on Schedule I thereto of even date herewith (the  "Investor  Registration
Rights Agreement").

      Section 1.07 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 1.08 SECURED NATURE OF DEBENTURE.  This Debenture is secured by
all of the assets and  property  of the Company as set forth on Exhibit A to the
Security Agreement dated the date hereof between the Company and the Holder (the
"Security Agreement").

      Section  1.09 THE ESCROW  SHARES.  The Company  shall  deposit  50,000,000
shares of Common Stock with the Escrow Agent as "Escrow Shares." Upon receipt of
the  Conversion  Notice from the Holder,  the Escrow Agent shall  distribute the
Conversion  Shares to  Holder  pursuant  to this  Debenture  and the  Securities
Purchase Agreement including Exhibit F thereto.

                                  ARTICLE II.

      SECTION 2.01  AMENDMENTS  AND WAIVER OF DEFAULT.  The Debenture 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.

                                  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 on the Maturity  Date, a
Scheduled  Payment date or  otherwise  after the  expiration  of a seven (7) day
period to cure such failure;  (b) failure by the Company's transfer agent (aside
for reason of error) to issue freely tradeable Common Stock to the Holder within
twelve (12) days of the Company's receipt of the attached Conversion Notice from
Holder;  (c)  failure by the  Company  for ten (10) days  after  notice to it to
comply with any of its other agreements in the Debenture;  (d) failure to comply
with the terms of the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions (as defined in the
Securities  Purchase  Agreement);  (e) if the Company files for relief under the
United States  Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy  Code") or under any other state
or federal  bankruptcy or insolvency law, or files an assignment for the benefit
of creditors, or if an involuntary proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or under
any other federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law is commenced against the
Company;  or (f) a breach by the  Company  of its  obligations  under any of the
Transaction Documents (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) which is
not cured by the Company  within any  allocated  cure period  therein.  Upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default,  the Holder may, in its sole discretion,  (i)
accelerate  full repayment of all debentures  outstanding  and accrued  interest
thereon at the Redemption  Price and/or (ii) convert all debentures  outstanding
and accrued  interest  thereon at twenty  percent  (20%) of the then  Conversion
Price.  The failure of the Company to make Payments due under Section 1.03 shall
also be deemed as an Event of  Default.  Upon an Event of  Default,  the  Escrow
Agent is  authorized  and directed to release the Escrow  Shares to the Buyer if
requested by the Buyer, without approval of the Company.

      SECTION 3.02 FAILURE TO ISSUE  UNRESTRICTED  COMMON STOCK. As indicated in
Section  3.01,  a breach by the Company of its  obligations  under the  Investor
Registration Rights 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, to convert all debentures outstanding and accrued
interest  thereon into shares of Common  Stock  pursuant to Section 1.02 herein.
The Company  acknowledges  that failure to honor a Conversion Notice shall cause
irreparable harm to the Holder.

                                  ARTICLE IV.

      SECTION 4.01 RIGHTS AND TERMS OF CONVERSION.  This Debenture,  in whole or
in part,  may be converted at any time following the Closing Date (as defined in
the Securities Purchase Agreement), into shares of Common Stock at a price equal
to the Conversion Price as described in Section 1.02 above.

      SECTION 4.02 RE-ISSUANCE OF DEBENTURE. When the Holder elects to convert a
part of the  Debenture,  then the Company  shall  reissue a new Debenture in the
same form as this Debenture to reflect the new principal amount.

                                   ARTICLE V.

      SECTION 5.01 ANTI-DILUTION. Adjustment of Conversion Price. The Conversion
Price shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:

            (a)   Adjustment  of  Conversion  Price and  Number  of Shares  upon
Issuance of Common  Stock.  If and whenever on or after the Closing Date of this
Debenture, the Company issues or sells, or is deemed to have issued or sold, any
shares of Common Stock (other than (i) Excluded  Securities (as defined herein),
(ii)  shares of Common  Stock  which are issued or deemed to have been issued by
the Company in connection with an Approved Stock Plan (as defined  herein),  and
(iii) upon the issuance,  exercise or conversion of Other Securities (as defined
herein))  for a  consideration  per  share  less than a price  (the  "Applicable
Price") equal to $1.25 or if the Conversion  Price has previously  been adjusted
pursuant to Section 5.01 hereof, then the Conversion Price in effect immediately
prior to such issuance or sale,  then  immediately  after such issue or sale the
Conversion  Price shall (until  another such issuance or sale) be reduced to the
price equal to the  quotient  derived by dividing (A) an amount equal to the sum
of (X) the product of (a) the Conversion Price on the date immediately  prior to
the  issuance  or sale of such  shares,  multiplied  by (b) the total  number of
shares of Common Stock  outstanding  immediately  prior to such issuance or sale
plus, (Y) the aggregate of the amount of all consideration,  if any, received by
the Company  upon such  issuance or sale,  by (B) the total  number of shares of
Common Stock  outstanding  immediately  after such  issuance or sale;  provided,
however, that in no event shall the Conversion Price be reduced below $.001.

            (b)   Effect on Conversion Price of Certain Events.  For purposes of
determining  the adjusted  Conversion  Price under Section  5.01(a)  above,  the
following shall be applicable:

                  (i)   Issuance  of  Options.  If after  the date  hereof,  the
Company in any manner grants any rights, warrants or options to subscribe for or
purchase Common Stock or convertible securities ("Options") and the lowest price
per share for which one share of Common  Stock is issuable  upon the exercise of
any such Option or upon  conversion  or exchange of any  convertible  securities
issuable upon exercise of any such Option is less than the Conversion Price then
in effect, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and
to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the  granting or sale
of such  Option  for  such  price  per  share.  For  purposes  of  this  Section
5.01(b)(i),  the lowest  price per share for which one share of Common  Stock is
issuable  upon  exercise of such Options or upon  conversion or exchange of such

                                       5
<PAGE>

convertible  securities  shall  be  equal to the sum of the  lowest  amounts  of
consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to any
one share of Common Stock upon the granting or sale of the Option, upon exercise
of the Option or upon conversion or exchange of any other  convertible  security
other than this  Debenture  issuable  upon  exercise of such Option.  No further
adjustment  of the  Conversion  Price shall be made upon the actual  issuance of
such Common Stock or of such  convertible  securities  upon the exercise of such
Options or upon the actual  issuance of such  Common  Stock upon  conversion  or
exchange of such convertible securities.

                  (ii)  Issuance of  Convertible  Securities.  If the Company in
any manner issues or sells any convertible securities after the Closing Date and
the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable  upon
the  conversion or exchange  thereof is less than the  Conversion  Price then in
effect, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to
have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the  issuance or sale of
such  convertible  securities for such price per share. For the purposes of this
Section  5.01(b)(ii),  the lowest  price per share for which one share of Common
Stock is issuable upon such  conversion or exchange shall be equal to the sum of
the lowest  amounts of  consideration  (if any)  received or  receivable  by the
Company  with  respect to one share of Common Stock upon the issuance or sale of
the  convertible  security and upon  conversion or exchange of such  convertible
security.  No further  adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the
actual  issuance  of such  Common  Stock upon  conversion  or  exchange  of such
convertible  securities,  and if any  such  issue  or sale  of such  convertible
securities  is made upon  exercise of any Options  for which  adjustment  of the
Conversion Price had been or are to be made pursuant to other provisions of this
Section 5.01(b),  no further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made by
reason of such issue or sale.

                  (iii) Change in  Option  Price or Rate of  Conversion.  If the
purchase price provided for in any Options,  the  additional  consideration,  if
any,  payable  upon  the  issue,  conversion  or  exchange  of  any  convertible
securities, or the rate at which any convertible securities are convertible into
or  exchangeable  for Common Stock changes at any time, the Conversion  Price in
effect at the time of such  change  shall be adjusted  to the  Conversion  Price
which  would have been in effect at such time had such  Options  or  convertible
securities provided for such changed purchase price, additional consideration or
changed  conversion  rate,  as the case may be, at the time  initially  granted,
issued or sold and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion
of this  Debenture  shall be  correspondingly  readjusted.  For purposes of this
Section  5.01(b)(iii),  if the terms of any Option or convertible  security that
was  outstanding  as of the Closing  Date of this  Debenture  are changed in the
manner  described in the  immediately  preceding  sentence,  then such Option or
convertible  security  and the  Common  Stock  deemed  issuable  upon  exercise,
conversion  or  exchange  thereof  shall be deemed to have been issued as of the
date of such change.  No  adjustment  pursuant to this Section  5.01(b) shall be
made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Conversion Price then
in effect.

            (c)   Effect on Conversion Price of Certain Events.  For purposes of
determining the adjusted  Conversion  Price under Sections  5.01(a) and 5.01(b),
the following shall be applicable:

                                       6
<PAGE>

                  (i)   Calculation  of  Consideration  Received.  If any Common
Stock,  Options or  convertible  securities are issued or sold or deemed to have
been  issued or sold for cash,  the  consideration  received  therefore  will be
deemed to be the gross amount received by the Company  therefore.  If any Common
Stock, Options or convertible  securities are issued or sold for a consideration
other than cash, the amount of such  consideration  received by the Company will
be the  fair  value  of such  consideration,  except  where  such  consideration
consists of  marketable  securities,  in which case the amount of  consideration
received by the Company will be the market price of such  securities on the date
of  receipt of such  securities.  If any Common  Stock,  Options or  convertible
securities  are issued to the owners of the  non-surviving  entity in connection
with any merger in which the  Company  is the  surviving  entity,  the amount of
consideration  therefore  will be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of
the net assets and business of the  non-surviving  entity as is  attributable to
such Common Stock,  Options or convertible  securities,  as the case may be. The
fair value of any consideration other than cash or securities will be determined
jointly by the Company and the holders of the  Debenture  representing  at least
two-thirds  of the  shares of  Common  Stock  issuable  upon  conversion  of the
Debenture then outstanding. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within
ten (10)  days  after  the  occurrence  of an  event  requiring  valuation  (the
"Valuation  Event"),  the fair value of such  consideration  will be  determined
within five (5) Business Days after the tenth (10th) day following the Valuation
Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected by the Company and
the holders of the Debenture  representing at least  two-thirds of the shares of
Common Stock  issuable upon  conversion of the Debenture then  outstanding.  The
determination  of such appraiser shall be final and binding upon all parties and
the fees and  expenses of such  appraiser  shall be borne by the  non-prevailing
party.

                  (ii)  Integrated Transactions. In case any Option is issued in
connection with the issue or sale of other  securities of the Company,  together
comprising one  integrated  transaction  in which no specific  consideration  is
allocated to such Options by the parties thereto,  the Options will be deemed to
have been issued for a consideration of $.001.

                  (iii) Treasury  Shares.  The number of shares of Common  Stock
outstanding  at any given time does not include  shares  owned or held by or for
the account of the Company,  and the  disposition of any shares so owned or held
will be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock.

                  (iv)  Record  Date.  If the  Company  takes  a  record  of the
holders  of Common  Stock for the  purpose  of  entitling  them (1) to receive a
dividend  or  other  distribution   payable  in  Common  Stock,  Options  or  in
convertible securities or (2) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock, Options
or convertible  securities,  then such record date will be deemed to be the date
of the issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or
sold  upon  the  declaration  of such  dividend  or the  making  of  such  other
distribution  or the  date of the  granting  of such  right of  subscription  or
purchase, as the case may be.

            (d)   Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination
of Common  Stock.  If the Company at any time after the date of issuance of this
Debenture  subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend,  recapitalization  or
otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding  shares of Common Stock into a
greater number of shares,  any Conversion Price in effect  immediately  prior to
such subdivision  will be  proportionately  reduced.  If the Company at any time

                                       7
<PAGE>

after the date of issuance of this Debenture  combines (by combination,  reverse
stock  split or  otherwise)  one or more  classes of its  outstanding  shares of
Common Stock into a smaller  number of shares,  any  Conversion  Price in effect
immediately  prior to such combination will be  proportionately  increased.  Any
adjustment  under this Section  5.01(d)  shall become  effective at the close of
business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

            (e)   Distribution  of Assets.  If the Company shall declare or make
any  dividend  or other  distribution  of its assets  (or rights to acquire  its
assets)  to holders of Common  Stock,  by way of return of capital or  otherwise
(including,  without  limitation,  any  distribution  of  cash,  stock  or other
securities,   property   or   options   by  way  of  a   dividend,   spin   off,
reclassification,  corporate  rearrangement  or other  similar  transaction)  (a
"Distribution"), at any time after the issuance of this Debenture, then, in each
such  case any  Conversion  Price in  effect  immediately  prior to the close of
business  on the record  date fixed for the  determination  of holders of Common
Stock entitled to receive the Distribution shall be reduced, effective as of the
close of business on such record date, to a price determined by multiplying such
Conversion  Price by a fraction of which (A) the numerator  shall be the closing
bid price of the Common  Stock on the trading  day  immediately  preceding  such
record date minus the value of the  Distribution (as determined in good faith by
the Company's Board of Directors)  applicable to one share of Common Stock,  and
(B) the  denominator  shall be the closing bid price of the Common  Stock on the
trading day immediately preceding such record date; and

            (f)   Certain Events.  If any event occurs of the type  contemplated
by the  provisions of this Section 5.01 but not  expressly  provided for by such
provisions  (including,  without limitation,  the granting of stock appreciation
rights,  phantom  stock rights or other rights with equity  features),  then the
Company's  Board  of  Directors  will  make  an  appropriate  adjustment  in the
Conversion  Price so as to protect the rights of the  holders of the  Debenture;
provided,  except  as set  forth in  Section  5.01(d),  that no such  adjustment
pursuant to this Section 5.01(f) will increase the Conversion Price as otherwise
determined pursuant to this Section 5.01.

            (g)   Notices.

                  (i)   Immediately upon any adjustment of the Conversion Price,
the Company will give written  notice  thereof to the holder of this  Debenture,
setting forth in reasonable  detail,  and  certifying,  the  calculation of such
adjustment.

                  (ii)  The Company  will give  written  notice to the holder of
this  Debenture  at least ten (10) days  prior to the date on which the  Company
closes  its  books  or  takes a  record  (A) with  respect  to any  dividend  or
distribution   upon  the  Common  Stock,  (B)  with  respect  to  any  pro  rata
subscription  offer to holders of Common Stock or (C) for determining  rights to
vote  with  respect  to any  dissolution  or  liquidation,  provided  that  such
information  shall be made known to the public prior to or in  conjunction  with
such notice being provided to such holder.
