Article 3.
Conversion

(a)  Automatic Conversion. Principal and interest due on this Note shall be automatically converted into such number of shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) as is determined by dividing the principal amount of the Note by the Preferred Stock Conversion Price. Upon such conversion, this Note and the Company’s obligations under this Note (including the obligation to pay interest) shall terminate.
 
(b)  Definitions. Unless otherwise defined in this Note, all terms defined in the Certificate of Designation for the Series A Preferred Stock and used in this Note shall have the same meanings in this Note as in the Restated Certificate; provided, however, that the term “Conversion Shares” shall mean the shares of Series A Preferred Stock issuable upon conversion of the Note.
 
(c)  Conversion Price. The Conversion Price shall initially be fifty seven and one-half cents ($.575). In the event that the Restated Certificate (as defined in the Agreement) is not filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware within one hundred fifty days (150) from the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), then for each whole or partial month that elapses between the 150th day from the Closing Date and the date of such filing, the Conversion Price then in effect shall automatically be reduced by 6%.
 
(d)  Conversions at Option of Holder. This Note shall be initially convertible, in whole at any time or in part from time to time into such number of shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock determined by dividing the principal amount of this Note being converted by the Conversion Price in effect on the date of conversion. Holders shall effect conversions by providing the Company with the form of conversion notice attached hereto as Annex A (a “Notice of Conversion”) as fully and originally executed by the Holder, together with the delivery by the Holder to the Company of this Note, with this Note being duly endorsed in full for transfer to the Company or with an applicable stock power duly executed by the Holder in the manner and form as deemed reasonable by the transfer agent of the Common Stock. Each Notice of Conversion shall specify the principal amount of this Note to be converted, the principal amount of this Note outstanding prior to the conversion at issue, the principal amount of this Note owned subsequent to the conversion at issue, and the date on which such conversion is to be effected, which date may not be prior to the date the Holder delivers such Notice of Conversion and the Note to the Company by overnight delivery service (the “Conversion Date”). If no Conversion Date is specified in a Notice of Conversion, the Conversion Date shall be the Trading Day immediately following the date that such Notice of Conversion and applicable stock certificates are received by the Company. The calculations and entries set forth in the Notice of Conversion shall control in the absence of manifest or mathematical error. The principal amount of this Note being converted into Preferred stock in accordance with the terms hereof shall be canceled and may not be reissued.
 
(e)  Automatic Conversion upon the filing of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation. Upon the filing of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, this Note shall automatically be converted into shares of Series A Preferred Stock at the Conversion Price.
 
(f)  Automatic Conversion Upon Change of Control. This Note shall be automatically converted into Series A Preferred Stock at the Conversion Price upon the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the date fixed for consummation of any transaction resulting in a Change of Control of the Company (an “Automatic Conversion Event”). A “Change in Control” means a consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another company or entity in which the Company is not the surviving entity or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another company or entity not controlled by the then existing stockholders of the Company in a transaction or series of transactions. The Company shall not be obligated to issue certificates evidencing the Series A Preferred Stock or other consideration issuable upon such conversion unless this Note is either delivered to the Company or its transfer agent or the Holder notifies the Company or its transfer agent in writing that such certificates have been lost, stolen, or destroyed and executes an agreement satisfactory to the Company to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection therewith. Upon the conversion of this Note pursuant to this Section 3(f), the Company shall promptly send written notice thereof, by hand delivery or by overnight delivery, to the Holder at its address then shown on the records of the Company, which notice shall state that this Note must be surrendered at the office of the Company (or of its transfer agent for the Common Stock, if applicable). Further, since a Change of Control also results in the automatic conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock, the Change of Control shall also result in the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock simultaneously with the conversion of this Note into share of Series A Preferred Stock.

(g)  Mechanics of Conversion
 
(i)  Delivery of Certificate Upon Conversion. Except as otherwise set forth herein, not later than three Trading Days after each Conversion Date (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall deliver to the Holder (A) a certificate or certificates which, after the Effective Date, shall be free of restrictive legends and trading restrictions (other than those required by the Agreement) representing the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock being acquired upon the conversion of this Note, and (B) a bank check in the amount of accrued and unpaid dividends (if the Company has elected or is required to pay accrued dividends in cash). After the Effective Date, the Company shall, upon request of the Holder, deliver any certificate or certificates required to be delivered by the Company under this Section electronically through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing Company performing similar functions if the Company’s transfer agent has the ability to deliver shares of Series A Preferred Stock in such manner. If in the case of any Notice of Conversion such certificate or certificates are not delivered to or as directed by the applicable Holder by the third Trading Day after the Conversion Date, the Holder shall be entitled to elect by written notice to the Company at any time on or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates thereafter, to rescind such conversion, in which event the Company shall immediately return the this Note to the Holder.
 
(ii)  Obligation Absolute; Partial Liquidated Damages. The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of such Conversion Shares. In the event a Holder shall elect to convert any or all of this Note, the Company may not refuse conversion based on any claim that such Holder or any one associated or affiliated with the Holder of has been engaged in any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason (other than the inability of the Company to issue shares of Common Stock as a result of the 4.9% Limitation) unless, an injunction from a court, on notice, restraining and or enjoining conversion of all or part of this Note shall have been sought and obtained and the Company posts a surety bond for the benefit of the Holder in the amount of 150% of the Conversion Value of the principal amount of the Note outstanding (i.e., the value of the shares of Preferred Stock issued upon conversion of such principal amount of this Note) which is subject to the injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Holder to the extent it obtains judgment. In the absence of an injunction precluding the same, the Company shall issue Conversion Shares or, if applicable, cash, upon a properly noticed conversion. If the Company fails to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates pursuant to Section 3(g)(i) within two Trading Days of the Share Delivery Date applicable to such conversion, the Company shall pay to such Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $5,000 of Conversion Value of Note being converted, $50 per Trading Day (increasing to $100 per Trading Day after three (3) Trading Days and increasing to $200 per Trading Day six (6) Trading Days after such damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after the Share Delivery Date until such certificates are delivered. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages for the Company’s failure to deliver certificates representing shares of Preferred Stock upon conversion within the period specified herein and such Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.

(iii)  Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Conversion. If the Company fails to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates pursuant to Section 6(d)(i) by a Share Delivery Date, and if after such Share Delivery Date the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Preferred Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Holder of the Conversion Shares which the Holder was entitled to receive upon the conversion relating to such Share Delivery Date (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Holder the amount by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Preferred Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1) the aggregate number of shares of Preferred Stock that such Holder was entitled to receive from the conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed. For example, if the Holder purchases Preferred Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of a portion of this Note with respect to which the aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation is $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In, together with applicable confirmations and other evidence reasonably requested by the Company. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Preferred Stock upon conversion of this Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
 
(iv)  Reservation of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion. The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Series A Preferred Stock solely for the purpose of issuance upon conversion of this Note, each as herein provided, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of persons other than the Holders, not less than such number of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock as shall (subject to any additional requirements of the Company as to reservation of such shares set forth in the Purchase Agreement) be issuable (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 3(h)) upon the conversion of this Note. The Company covenants that all shares of Preferred Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid, nonassessable.
 
(v)  Fractional Shares. Upon a conversion hereunder, the Company shall not be required to issue stock certificates representing fractions of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock. All fractional shares shall be carried forward and any fractional shares which remain after the Holder converts the full principal amount of this Note shall be dropped and eliminated.
 
-5-

 
(vi)  Transfer Taxes. The issuance of certificates for shares of the Preferred Stock on conversion of this Note shall be made without charge to the Holders thereof for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such certificate, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name other than that of the Holder and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.
 
(vii)  Absolute Obligation. Except as expressly provided herein, no provision of this Note shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the liquidated damages (if any) on, this Note at the time, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
 
(h)  Fundamental Transaction. A Fundamental Transaction shall mean (A) the merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (B) any sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets in one or a series of related transactions, (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, or (D) any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property.
