Any election to convert the Convertible Debenture pursuant to this paragraph shall be effectuated by the Holder timely submitting to the Company a notice of conversion attached hereto as Exhibit "1" (the "Conversion Notice").

(c) Reclassification or Change. Whenever any reclassification or change of the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall occur (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par, or from no par to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination), effective provision shall be made whereby the Holder shall have the right, at any time thereafter, to receive upon conversion of this Debenture the kind of stock, other securities or property receivable upon such reclassification by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Debenture immediately prior to such reclassification. Thereafter, the rights of the parties hereto with respect to the adjustment of the amount of securities or other property obtainable upon conversion of this Debenture shall be appropriately continued and preserved, so as to afford as nearly as may be possible protection of the nature afforded by this subparagraph (c).
(d) Merger. If, prior to repayment of the obligations relevant hereto, or prior to conversion of this Debenture into equity in the Company, the Company shall be consolidated or merged with another company, or substantially all of its assets shall be sold to another company in exchange for stock with the view to distributing such stock to its shareholders, each share of stock into which this Debenture is convertible shall be replaced for the purposes hereof by a pro rata amount of the securities or property issuable or distributable, based upon the percentage of the Company's common stock which a Holder would have owned had a there been a conversion herein after consummation of such merger, consolidation or sale and adequate provision to that effect shall be made at the time thereof. The Company will provide the Holder at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of any event described in this subsection (d).
(e) Reservation of Common Shares. The Company shall take or has taken all steps necessary to reserve a number of its authorized but unissued Common Shares sufficient for issuance upon conversion of this Convertible Subordinated Debenture pursuant to the provisions included hereinabove.

(g) Status of Registered Holder. The Company may treat the registered holder of this Debenture as the absolute owner of this Debenture for the purposes of making payments of principal or interest and for all other purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.
(h) Redemption/Prepayment of Debenture. This Debenture is subject to redemption at the option of the Company upon 30 days prior written notice (subject to the Holder's prior exercise of its right of conversion as set forth above), as a whole at any time, or in part from time to time, upon payment by the Company of 100% of the unpaid principal amount or such portion thereof so redeemed, plus accrued interest thereon through the date of redemption.

(b) if the Company shall materially default in the performance of or compliance with any term contained herein and such default shall not have been remedied within fifteen days after written notice thereof from the Holder to the Company; or
(c) if the Company shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts as they become due, or a voluntary petition for reorganization under Title 11 of the United States Code ("Title 11") shall be filed by the Company or an order shall be entered granting relief to the Company under Title 11 or a petition shall be filed by the Company in bankruptcy, or the Company shall be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or shall file any petition or answer seeking for itself any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under any present or future statute, law or regulation, or shall file any answer admitting or not contesting the material allegations of a petition filed against the Company in any such proceeding, or shall seek or consent to or acquiesce in the appointment of any trustee, receiver or liquidator of the Company or of all or any substantial part of the properties of the Company or if the Company or its directors or majority shareholders shall take any action looking to the dissolution or liquidation of the Company; or

(d) if within 120 days after the commencement of an action against the Company seeking a reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under any present or future statute, law or regulation, such action shall not have been dismissed or nullified or all orders or proceedings thereunder affecting the operations or the business of the Company stayed, or if the stay of any such order or proceeding shall thereafter be set aside, or if, within 120 days after the appointment without the consent or acquiescence of the Company of any trustee, receiver or liquidator of the Company or of all or any substantial part of the properties of the Company such appointment shall not have been vacated;
then, and in any such event, the Holder may at any time (unless such Event of Default shall theretofore have been remedied) at its option, by written notice to the Company, declare the Debenture to be due and payable, whereupon the Debenture shall forthwith mature and become due and payable, together with interest accrued thereon, and thereafter interest shall be due, at the rate per annum hereinabove provided, on the entire principal balance until the same is fully paid, and on any overdue interest (but only to the extent permitted by law), without presentment, demand, protest or notice, all of which are hereby waived, subject however, to the other terms, including those relating to subordination, of this Debenture.
In the case of a default in the payment of any principal of or interest on the Debenture, the Company will pay to the Holder such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the cost and expenses of collection, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, expenses and disbursements. No course of dealing and no delay on the part of Holder in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such Holder's rights, powers or remedies. No right, power or remedy conferred by this Debenture upon Holder shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.
5. Usury Laws. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Debenture to the contrary, the Company's liability for payment of interest shall not exceed the limits imposed by applicable usury law. If any provision hereof requires interest payments in excess of the then legally permitted maximum rate, such provision shall automatically be deemed to require such payment at the then legally-permitted maximum rate.
