(b) Subject to the fulfillment of the conditions set forth in Article VII below, the Lender hereby agrees to advance its respective Loan to the Company on the Closing Date by, at the option of the Lender, a check or checks payable to the order of the Company or by wire transfer, in exchange for the sale and issuance by the Company to each such Lender of a Note evidencing the principal amount of such Lender’s Loan.

 

 

 

3.1 Leumi Debt Assumption. The parties agree that, at any time or from time to time following the date of execution of this Agreement, each of the Leumi Guarantors (as defined in Section 4.22(b) below) shall have the right: (i) to assume all or any part of the Leumi Debt (as defined in Section 4.22(b) below) (the “Assumed Debt”), and (ii) upon the consummation of the ITAC/IXI Merger or the failure thereof (as the case may be), to participate in an Optional Conversion and to convert such assumed amount into ITAC Stock or IXI Stock (as the case may be) pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in Section 3.2 below.

 

3.2 Conversion.

 

(a) In the event the ITAC/IXI Merger becomes effective and subject to and conditioned upon the ITAC/IXI Merger becoming effective, each Conversion Participant shall have the option to convert its respective Conversion Amount pursuant to this Agreement and the ITAC Certification into such number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of ITAC’s Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“ITAC Stock”) as determined by dividing (A) such Conversion Participant’s Conversion Amount by (B) $6.50, appropriately adjusted for stock dividends, stock splits and other recapitalizations subsequent to the date of ITAC’s most recent publicly available securities law filing prior to the execution of this Agreement.

 

(b) At any time on or after the First Interest Payment Date, in the event the ITAC/IXI Merger is rejected by ITAC’s shareholders or otherwise fails to become effective, each Conversion Participant shall have the option to convert its respective Conversion Amount into such number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Series E Preferred Stock, par value $0.01, of the Parent Guarantor (“IXI Stock”) as determined by dividing (A) such Conversion Participant’s Conversion Amount by (B) $0.656. The rights, preferences and privileges of the IXI Stock shall be as set forth in the currently effective 9^th Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Parent Guarantor attached hereto as Exhibit H (the “Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation”).

 

(c) No fractional shares of Conversion Stock shall be issued upon an Optional Conversion. If, upon an Optional Conversion, a fraction of a share would otherwise result, then in lieu of such fractional share the Parent Guarantor (in the case of an Optional Conversion pursuant to Section 3.2(b) above) or ITAC (in the case of an Optional Conversion pursuant to the combined provisions of Section 3.2(a) above and the ITAC Certification) will pay the cash value of that fractional share.

 

(d) An Optional Conversion shall be effectuated by the Conversion Participant by furnishing both the Parent Guarantor and ITAC (in the case of an Optional Conversion pursuant to the combined provisions of Section 3.2(a) above and the ITAC Certification) or by furnishing the Parent Guarantor (in the case of an Optional Conversion pursuant to Section 3.2(b) above), no later than within sixty (60) Business Days following the closing date of the ITAC/IXI Merger (in the case of an Optional Conversion pursuant to the combined provisions of Section 3.2(a) above and the ITAC Certification) or no later than within sixty (60) Business Days following the date on which the Conversion Participant receives notice from the Parent Guarantor that the ITAC/IXI Merger failed to become effective and the Company failed to make the first interest payment on the First Interest Payment Date (in the case of an Optional Conversion pursuant to Section 3.2(b) above), a notice indicating the Conversion Participant’s Conversion Amount and otherwise evidencing such Conversion Participant’s intention to convert its respective Conversion Amount (the “Conversion Notice”). Should any Lender and/or Leumi Guarantor fail to deliver a Conversion Notice within the timeframe and to the party or parties set forth above, such Lender and/or Leumi Guarantor shall be deemed to have waived its right for Optional Conversion and such right shall automatically, without any action on the part of the Parent Guarantor and/or ITAC, be of no further force and effect with respect to such Lender and/or Leumi Guarantor.

 

(e) The date on which the Conversion Participant delivers the Conversion Notice, duly executed, to the Parent Guarantor shall be deemed to be the date of Optional Conversion (the “Optional Conversion Date”) for the purposes of determining the Conversion Amount. Facsimile delivery of the Conversion Notice shall be accepted by the Parent Guarantor. Certificates representing the shares of Conversion Stock issuable upon an Optional Conversion, containing the restrictive legend then in effect, will be delivered to the Conversion Participant as soon as practicable after the Optional Conversion Date.

 

(f) Any Conversion Amount converted into Conversion Stock will be deemed fully paid and all Obligations relating thereto will be deemed fully satisfied. Upon issuance of the conversion stock, such shares shall be duly and validly issued.

 

3.3 Equity Securities.

 

(a) As an inducement to the Lenders to advance the Loans to the Company, in the event the ITAC/IXI Merger becomes effective and subject and conditioned upon the ITAC/IXI Merger becoming effective, ITAC shall issue pursuant to the combined provisions of this Section 3.3(a) and the ITAC Certification, as soon as practicable following the consummation of the ITAC/IXI Merger, to the Lender a total amount of Six Hundred Thousand (600,000) shares of ITAC’s Common Stock (“ITAC Stock”), par value $0.0001 per share, appropriately adjusted for stock dividends, stock splits and other recapitalizations subsequent to the date of ITAC’s most recent publicly available securities law filing prior to the execution of this Agreement, with each Lender receiving the amount of ITAC Stock set forth apposite such Lender’s name on the Schedule of Lenders. For clarification purposes the parties acknowledge and agree that pursuant to the Leumi Guarantors’ Agreement, as an inducement to the Leumi Guarantors to enter into the Leumi Guarantors’ Agreement, the Leumi Guarantors will receive 240,000 shares of ITAC Stock as described in Section 4.22(d) below.

 

(b) As an inducement to the Lenders and to the Leumi Guarantors assuming any part of the Leumi Debt to convert at least 50% (the “Conversion Inducement Threshold”) of each their respective Loan amount or assumed Leumi Debt amount into ITAC Stock in the event the ITAC/IXI Merger closes, subject and conditioned upon the ITAC/IXI Merger becoming effective, ITAC shall issue pursuant to the combined provisions of this Section 3.3(b) and the ITAC Certification, as soon as practicable following the consummation of the ITAC/IXI Merger, to any Conversion Participant meeting or exceeding the Conversion Inducement Threshold, warrants (“ITAC Warrants”) to purchase that number of ITAC Stock (as defined above) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) each converted Dollar ($1.00) of each such Conversion Participant’s Conversion Amount by (B) 0.0357. The parties agree that Conversion Participants wishing to utilize the benefit conferred by this Section 3.3(b) (combined with the ITAC Certification) shall be required to convert a Conversion Amount such that the foregoing formula will result a whole number of ITAC Warrant shares. The ITAC Warrants shall be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company and the Parent Guarantor represent and warrant that the benefit to the Leumi Guarantors described in this Section 3.3(b) and conferred by any similar section in the Leumi Guarantors’ Agreement, shall be pre-conditioned upon the Leumi Guarantors assuming collectively at least 50% of the Leumi Debt.

 

3.4 Covenants Relating to Securities. The Parent Guarantor shall, prior to an Optional Conversion pursuant to Section 3.2(b), take any and all actions necessary to authorize and reserve a sufficient number of shares of IXI Stock to effect such Optional Conversion. The Parent Guarantor covenants and agrees that upon delivery, all shares of IXI Stock shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

The Parent Guarantor, the Company and their Subsidiaries have been granted and hold, and have made, all Governmental Actions/Filings necessary for the Loan Parties to own, lease and operate their properties or to carry on their business as it is now being conducted and as presently proposed to be conducted. Each such Governmental Action/Filing is in full force and effect and, except as set forth in Section 4.18 of the Company Disclosure Schedules, will not expire prior to December 31, 2006, and the Loan Parties are in compliance with all of their obligations with respect thereto. No event has occurred and is continuing which requires or permits, or after notice or lapse of time or both would require or permit, and consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any ancillary documents will not require or permit (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both), any modification or termination of any such Governmental Actions/Filings.

(b) The security interests granted by the Company and by the Parent Guarantor to the Lenders pursuant to the Security Documents shall rank senior to any other security interests granted by the Company and the Parent Guarantor, except that, for the avoidance of any doubt: (i) with respect to any items of collateral subject to any of the Pre-Existing Encumbrances, for so long as the Pre-Existing Encumbrances remain outstanding, the Lenders shall not have a charge or pledge in such items of collateral, and once the Pre-Existing Encumbrances are terminated, such items of collateral shall be considered part of the Collateral and the charges and pledges in favour of the Lenders with respect to such items of collateral shall be first ranking charges and pledges, and (ii) with respect the Ampa Collateral (as defined in Section 4.22(e) below), for so long as the Ampa Security Interest remains outstanding, the Lenders shall not have a charge or pledge in the Ampa Collateral, and once the Ampa Security Interest is terminated, any then-existing items of the Ampa Collateral shall be considered part of the Collateral and the charges and pledges in favour of the Lenders with respect to such then-existing items of the Ampa Collateral shall be first ranking charges and pledges. Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, the parties agree and acknowledge that only the Leumi Guarantors’ Security Interests (as defined in Section 4.22(d) below) shall rank equally with the security interests granted in the Security Documents to the Lenders.

The Obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any of the Lenders upon, on account of, or in connection with, the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or the Parent Guarantor (as applicable) or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

No delay or omission of the Lenders to exercise any right under the Loan Documents shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of any Event of Default or an acquiescence therein.

All remedies contained in the Loan Documents or by law afforded shall be cumulative and all shall be available to the Lenders until the Obligations have been performed in full.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall, upon demand, pay or reimburse each indemnitee for all indemnified costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred thereby.

9.2 No Implied Waivers; Cumulative Remedies; Writing Required. No course of dealing and no delay or failure of the Lender or any Loan Party in exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any other or future exercise thereof or operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right, power, remedy or privilege preclude any further exercise thereof or of any other right, power, remedy or privilege. The rights and remedies of the Lender and each Loan Party under this Agreement and any other Loan Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any Lender or any Loan Party of any breach or default under this Agreement or any such waiver of any provision or condition of this Agreement must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.
