(b)

The following is hereby added immediately following Section 4(r) of the SPA:

 

“(s)     EPOD Note Payments.  The Company acknowledges and represents that, pursuant to the debenture (together with any accompanying promissory notes or other agreements related to such debt, collectively referred to as the “EPOD Note”) issued pursuant to the Second Amendment to the Share Purchase Agreement, which Share Purchase Agreement is dated May 9, 2007, by and between the Company and EPD Solar, Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of British Columbia, Canada (“EPOD”)(which agreement was assumed from ISE LLC), EPOD owes at least $2,241,200 to the Company, $1,060,600 of which is required to be paid to the Company by EPOD in cash, in monthly payments of  $40,000 (the “EPOD Monthly Payments”) commencing on April 18, 2008 until the balance is paid in full.  The Company agrees, concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, to deliver to Roswell Capital Partners, LLC, as collateral agent for the Buyers (the “Collateral Agent”) the original of the EPOD Note and a bond power (the “Bond Power”)(executed and medallion guaranteed, as necessary, in the manner required to effect assignment of the EPOD Note under applicable law) whereby the Company assigns all of its right, title and interest in the EPOD Note to the Collateral Agent for the pro rata benefit of the Buyers .  In the event that a non-assignment clause in the EPOD Note prohibits such assignment, then the Company shall use its best efforts to have EPOD waive such prohibitions and allow such assignment.  If, after the Company’s best efforts, the Company cannot effect the assignment of the EPOD Note by January 9, 2009 because EPOD still refuses to waive any prohibitions, then the Company shall nevertheless promptly thereafter but in any event not later than January 15, 2009, send the original EPOD Note and a Bond Power to the Collateral Agent to hold as security, in order to perfect the Buyers’ security interest in the EPOD Note.

Following the completion of the assignment of all of the Company’s right, title and interest in the EPOD Note to the Collateral Agent for the pro rata benefit of the Buyers, the principal amount of each Buyer’s Debenture shall be reduced by an amount equal to such Buyer’s Pro Rata Portion of any amounts paid by EPOD to the Collateral Agent and subsequently paid to the Buyers in an amount equal to their Pro Rata Portion of the EPOD Note.  For purposes hereof, Pro Rata Portion shall have the meaning set forth in the table below for each of the respective Buyers:

Name of Buyer

Pro Rata Portion

 

BridgePointe Master Fund Ltd.

 

1/2

 

Platinum Long Term Growth VI, LLC

 

1/3

 

Gemini Master Fund, Ltd.

 

1/6

 

In the event that the Company pays off the balance of all of the Debentures in full, and any portion of the EPOD Note remains outstanding, the Collateral Agent shall assign the remainder of the EPOD Note back to the Company.

 

In the event that, notwithstanding the Company’s best efforts, the Company has not been able to effect the assignment of its right, title and interest in the EPOD Note to the Collateral Agent for the pro rata benefit of the Buyers by January 15, 2009, then the Company shall, to the fullest extent allowed under the terms of the EPOD Note, within thirty days of a written request given by the Collateral Agent anytime thereafter that EPOD has not made all  payments due under the terms of the EPOD Note, either (i) commence an action in an appropriate state or federal court to collect all amounts past due on the EPOD Note and use its best efforts to pursue such action through judgment and collection, or (ii) execute an assignment of claims, whereby the Company assigns to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Buyers its rights to pursue a collection action against EPOD on the EPOD Note.

 

(t)

   Lockbox Account.  

(i)

Lockbox Account.   By no later than January 15, 2009, the Company shall enter into a standard Lockbox Agreement (as defined below), in a form acceptable to the Buyers, with the Buyers and with a reputable national bank. For purposes hereof, “Lockbox Agreement” shall mean an agreement between the Company, the Buyers and a reputable national bank, whereby the bank (the “Lockbox Agent”) agrees to receive payments directly from the Company’s customers and payors, including but not limited to EPOD, agrees to process such remittances and to deposit them directly into a specified account (the “Lockbox Account”) and agrees to sweep the deposited funds into a Sweep Account, as described in subsection (iv) below.

(ii)

Lockbox Invoices to Customers.  The Company agrees to deliver  instructions (each, “Lockbox Payment Instructions”) by not later than January 15, 2009, to each of the Company’s existing customers requiring each customer to remit all payments made to the Company on or after February 1, 2009 through and including all payments made, or due to be made, to the Company for so long as any Debentures remain outstanding, directly to the Lockbox Account and to deliver such Lockbox Payment Instructions to EPOD requiring EPOD to make all future EPOD Monthly Payments on the EPOD Note directly to the Lockbox Account (until such time, if any, as the assignment of the EPOD Note to the Buyers has been completed).  Furthermore, the Company agrees to send Lockbox Payment Instructions to each future customer within five (5) Business Days of the Company’s first contract or purchase order with the customer. Upon shipment of product to a customer, the Company shall provide the customer with an invoice requiring that payments on the receivables be remitted directly to the Lockbox Account (each, a “Lockbox Invoice”). The Company shall promptly provide each of the Buyers with a copy of each Lockbox Payment Instruction and each Lockbox Invoice, together with evidence that each has been delivered to the applicable customer, by not later than five (5) Business Days of the date that such instructions are required to be delivered to the applicable customer.  The parties agree and acknowledge that a failure by the Company to timely provide Lockbox Payment Instructions and Lockbox Invoices to any customer as required above, or a failure to provide the Buyers with a copy of each Lockbox Payment Instruction and Lockbox invoice as required above, shall constitute an Event of Default under the Debentures.

(iii)  Return of Misdelivered Funds to the Lockbox Account.  In the event that, anytime on or after January 1, 2009, the Company shall receive any payment from a customer or shall receive any payment from EPOD (each, a “Misdelivered Payment” and collectively, “Misdelivered Payments”), the Company shall hold such Misdelivered Payments in trust for the Buyers and shall promptly, but in any event within two (2) business days of the date that the Company received such funds, forward such Payments to the Lockbox Account for processing.  The parties agree and acknowledge that a failure by the Company to timely forward Misdelivered Payments to the Lockbox Account shall constitute an Event of Default under the Debentures, shall constitute a breach of fiduciary duties  and shall constitute an act of civil theft.

 

(iv)

          Sweep of Funds from Lockbox.  Simultaneously with the execution of the Lockbox Agreement, the Company shall provide irrevocable instructions to the Lockbox Agent to sweep, on each Sweep Date (as defined below) an amount of funds equal to the Sweep Amount (as defined below) out of the Lockbox Account into a separate account (the “Sweep Account”) controlled by the Collateral Agent (as defined in the Security Agreement).  The parties  agree that the funds received into the Sweep Account shall be disbursed to the Buyers (pro rata to each Buyer, based upon the principal amount of each Buyer’s Debenture as of the date hereof) within two (2) business days of each date that  funds are received into the Lockbox Account (each, a “Sweep Date”), and such funds shall be applied first toward interest due on the Debentures, next toward reduction of any due and unpaid Monthly Redemption Amounts (as defined in the Debentures), next toward reduction of the principal amount of the Debentures, until paid in full, and any remaining amounts shall be disbursed to the Company.   For purposes hereof, up through May 31, 2009, the “Sweep Amount” as of any Sweep Date shall mean the difference of (x) 10% of all funds received into the Lockbox Account from its inception up through a given Sweep Date, either directly or indirectly from the company’s customers, plus 100% of all payments received into the Lockbox Account from its inception up through a given Sweep Date, either directly or indirectly from EPOD, minus (y) all amounts that have been swept out of the Lockbox Account into the Sweep Account from the inception of the Lockbox Account through the Sweep Date in question (collectively, the “Pre-May 31 Sweep Amount”), and after May 31, 2009, the “Sweep Amount” as of any Sweep Date shall mean the greater of (x) the aggregate amount of any Monthly Redemption Amounts (as defined in the Debentures) that are then due and unpaid to any Buyers plus the aggregate amount of any Interest (as defined in the Debentures) that is then due and unpaid to any Buyers (collectively, the “Due Payment Amount”), and (y) the Pre-May 31 Sweep amount as determined on the Sweep Date in question, provided that in no event shall a Sweep Amount determined for a Sweep Date after May 31, 2009 exceed the Due Payment Amount.
