(b) On or prior to the date which is the 3rd Trading Day prior to each Installment Date (each, an “Installment Notice Date”), the Company shall deliver written notice in the form attached as Exhibit I hereto (each, a “Company Installment Notice”) to the Holder which Company Installment Notice shall (i) either (A) confirm that the applicable Installment Amount of the Holder’s Debenture shall be converted in whole pursuant to a Company Conversion Payment (such amount to be converted, the “Company Conversion Amount”), or (B) (1) specify the portion of the applicable Installment Amount (including Interest and the applicable Cash Payment Premium) which the Company elects to pay in cash, or is required to pay in cash in accordance with the provisions of this Debenture, pursuant to a Company Cash Payment (the “Company Cash Amount”) and (2) the portion of the applicable Installment Amount (including Interest) that the Company elects to convert pursuant to a Company Conversion Payment, which amounts when added together must equal the applicable Installment Amount and (ii) if the Installment Amount is to be paid, in whole or in part, pursuant to a Company Conversion Payment, certify that there is not then an Equity Conditions Failure as of the date of the Company Installment Notice.

If the Equity Conditions are not satisfied or if the Company Installment Conversion Payment Limitation is exceeded on such Installment Date (unless waived in writing by the Holder), then at the option of the Holder designated in writing to the Company, the Holder may require the Company to redeem all or any part of the unconverted Company Conversion Amount designated by the Holder (such designated amount is referred to as the “Unconverted Installment Amount”) and the Company shall pay to the Holder within 3 days of such Installment Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an amount in cash equal to such Unconverted Installment Amount. If the Company fails to redeem any Unconverted Installment Amount by the 3rd day following the applicable Installment Date, then the Holder shall have all rights under this Debenture (including, without limitation, such failure constituting an Event of Default). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3(c), until the Company delivers Common Stock representing the Company Conversion Amount to the Holder, the Company Conversion Amount may be converted by the Holder into Common Stock pursuant to Section 4. In the event that the Holder elects to convert the Company Conversion Amount prior to the applicable Installment Date as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Company Conversion Amount so converted shall be deducted from the Installment Amount relating to the applicable Installment Date as set forth in the applicable Conversion Notice.

 

(d) Mechanics of Company Cash Payment. If the Company elects a Company Cash Payment in accordance with Section 3(b), then the Company Cash Amount, if any, which is to be paid to the Holder on the applicable Installment Date shall be paid by the Company on such Installment Date, to the Holder by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in an amount in cash equal to the Installment Amount being repaid in cash, plus the Cash Payment Premium of the Principal portion of such Installment Amount, plus accrued and unpaid Interest. If the Company fails to deliver to the Holder via wire transfer the Company Cash Amount on the applicable Installment Date then at the option of the Holder designated in writing to the Company (any such designation, “Conversion Notice” for purposes of this Debenture), the Holder may require the Company to convert all or any part of the Company Cash Amount into shares of Common Stock of the Company at the Market Conversion Price. Conversions required by this Section 3(d) shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 4(d). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3(d), until the Company Cash Amount is paid in full, the Company Cash Amount may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Common Stock pursuant to Section 4. In the event the Holder elects to convert all or any portion of the unpaid Company Cash Amount prior to the applicable Installment Date as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Company Cash Amount so converted shall be deducted from the Installment Amount relating to the applicable Installment Date as set forth in the applicable Conversion Notice.

 

(e) Deferred Installment Amount. Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 3 to the contrary, the Holder may, at its option and in its sole discretion, deliver a written notice to the Company on or prior to any Installment Notice Date electing to have the payment of all or any portion of an Installment Amount payable on such Installment Date deferred to the Maturity Date.

 

(f) Cancellation of Installment Amount. Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 3 to the contrary, in the event that the VWAP of the Common Stock equals or exceeds 110% of the Fixed Conversion Price, as quoted by Bloomberg, LP, for each of the 5 consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the Installment Notice Date and no Event of Default has occurred then the Installment Amount payable on such Installment Date may be deferred to the Maturity Date, at the discretion of the Company.

 

(g) Company’s Cash Redemption. The Company at its option shall have the right to redeem (a “Redemption”), in part or in whole, outstanding Principal and Interest under this Debenture in addition to any Installment Amount payments prior to the Maturity Date provided that as of the date of the Holder’s receipt of a Redemption Notice (as defined herein) (i) the VWAP of the Company’s Common Stock is less than the Fixed Conversion Price and (ii) there is no Equity Conditions Failure. The Company shall pay an amount equal to the Principal amount being redeemed plus an amount equal to the Redemption Premium plus outstanding and accrued Interest. In order to make a Redemption pursuant to this Section, the Company shall first provide 3 business days advanced written notice to the Holder of its intention to make a redemption (the “Redemption Notice”) setting forth the amount of Principal and Interest it desires to redeem plus the applicable Redemption Premium (the “Redemption Amount”). After receipt of the Redemption Notice the Holder shall have 2 Business Days to elect to convert all or any portion of this Debenture, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 4(f). On the 4th Business Day after the Redemption Notice, the Company shall deliver to the Holder via wire transfer of immediately available funds the Redemption Amount with respect to the Principal Amount and Interest redeemed after giving effect to conversions by the Holder effected during the 1 Business Day period.

(4) CONVERSION OF DEBENTURE. This Debenture shall be convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 4.

 

(a) Conversion Right. Subject to the provisions of Section 4(f), at any time or times on or after the Issuance Date and notwithstanding any pending Company Cash Payment, Company Conversion Payment or Redemption, the Holder shall be entitled to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid Conversion Amount (as defined below) into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock in accordance with Section 4(e)(i), at the Fixed Conversion Price. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any Conversion Amount pursuant to this Section 4(a) shall be determined by dividing (x) such Conversion Amount by (y) the Fixed Conversion Price (the “Conversion Rate”). The Company shall not issue any fraction of a share of Common Stock upon any conversion. If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company shall round such fraction of a share of Common Stock up to the nearest whole share. The Company shall pay any and all transfer, stamp and similar taxes that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Common Stock upon conversion of any Conversion Amount.

 

(b) “Conversion Amount” means the portion of the Principal and accrued Interest to be converted, redeemed or otherwise with respect to which this determination is being made.

 

(c) “Fixed Conversion Price” means, as of any Conversion Date (as defined below) or other date of determination, $0.70, subject to adjustment as provided herein. All such determinations to be appropriately adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, stock combination or other similar transaction.

 

(d) “Market Conversion Price” means, as of any Conversion Date (as defined below) or other date of determination, 85% of the lowest VWAP of the Company’s Common Stock during the 10 Trading Days immediately preceding the Conversion Date. All such prices used in such determinations to be appropriately adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, stock combination or other similar transaction.

 

(e) Mechanics of Conversion.

 

(i) Optional Conversion. To convert any Conversion Amount into shares of Common Stock on any date (a “Conversion Date”), the Holder shall (A) transmit by electronic mail (or otherwise deliver), for receipt on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York Time, on such date, a copy of an executed notice of conversion in the form attached hereto as Exhibit II (the “Conversion Notice”) to the Company and (B) if required by Section 4(e)(iv), surrender this Debenture to a nationally recognized overnight delivery service for delivery to the Company (or an indemnification undertaking reasonably satisfactory to the Company with respect to this Debenture in the case of its loss, theft or destruction). On or before the 3rd Business Day following (i) the date of receipt of a Conversion Notice or (ii) an Installment Date if the Company has delivered a Company Installment Notice pursuant to which a Company Conversion Payment will be made (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall (X) if legends are not required to be placed on certificates of Common Stock pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement and provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company’s (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its DWAC system or (Y) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, issue and deliver to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled which certificates shall not bear any restrictive legends unless required pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement. If this Debenture is physically surrendered for conversion and the outstanding Principal of this Debenture is greater than the Principal portion of the Conversion Amount being converted, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than 3 Business Days after receipt of this Debenture and at its own expense, issue and deliver to the holder a new Debenture representing the outstanding Principal not converted. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of this Debenture shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock upon the transmission pursuant to the notice delivery provisions in Section 7 herein of a Conversion Notice.

(ii) Company’s Failure to Timely Convert. Company shall issue and deliver a certificate to the Holder or credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon each conversion of any Conversion Amount within 3 Trading Days after the Company’s receipt by electronic mail of a copy of a Conversion Notice or an Installment Date if the Company has delivered a Company Installment Notice pursuant to which a Company Installment Conversion Payment will be made. If the Company fails to deliver such shares within 3 Trading Days, unless such delivery failure results from a failure of the Company’s transfer agent to issue such shares as a result of an act of terrorism, war, natural disaster, act of god or other force majeure event, (a “Conversion Failure”), and if on or after a Conversion Failure the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within 3 Business Days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other out of pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (the Buy-In Price), at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such Common Stock) shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such Common Stock and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Common Stock, times (B) the Closing Bid Price on the Conversion Date.

 

(iii) Book-Entry. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of any portion of this Debenture in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Debenture to the Company unless (A) the full Conversion Amount represented by this Debenture is being converted or (B) the Holder has provided the Company with prior written notice (which notice may be included in a Conversion Notice) requesting reissuance of this Debenture upon physical surrender of this Debenture. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the Principal and Interest converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of this Debenture upon conversion.

 

(f) Limitations on Conversions.

 

(i) Beneficial Ownership. The Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Debenture or otherwise receive shares of Common Stock hereunder to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion or receipt of such shares, the Holder, together with any affiliate thereof, would beneficially own (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion or receipt of shares as payment of interest. Since the Holder will not be obligated to report to the Company the number of shares of Common Stock it may hold at the time of a conversion hereunder, unless the conversion at issue would result in the issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess of 4.99% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock without regard to any other shares which may be beneficially owned by the Holder or an affiliate thereof, the Holder shall have the authority and obligation to determine whether the restriction contained in this Section will limit any particular conversion hereunder and to the extent that the Holder determines that the limitation contained in this Section applies, the determination of which portion of the principal amount of this Debenture is convertible shall be the responsibility and obligation of the Holder. If the Holder has delivered a Conversion Notice for a principal amount of this Debenture that, without regard to any other shares that the Holder or its affiliates may beneficially own, would result in the issuance in excess of the permitted amount hereunder, the Company shall notify the Holder of this fact and shall honor the conversion for the maximum principal amount permitted to be converted on such Conversion Date in accordance with Section 4(a) and, any principal amount tendered for conversion in excess of the permitted amount hereunder shall remain outstanding under this Debenture. The provisions of this Section may be waived by a Holder (but only as to itself and not to any other Holder) upon not less than 65 days prior notice to the Company. Other Holders shall be unaffected by any such waiver.

(ii) Principal Market Limitation. The Company shall not issue any shares of Common Stock pursuant to the terms of this Debenture if the issuance of such shares of Common Stock would exceed the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that the Company may issue upon conversion of the Debenture in compliance with the Company’s obligations under the rules or regulations of the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Trading Market”) (the number of shares which may be issued without violating such rules and regulations, the “Exchange Cap”), except that such limitation shall not apply in the event that the Company (A) obtains the approval of its stockholders as required by the applicable rules of the Trading Market for issuances of shares of Common Stock in excess of such amount or (B) obtains a written opinion from outside counsel to the Company that such approval is not required, which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Holder. Until such approval or such written opinion is obtained, the Holder shall not be issued in the aggregate shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Debentures in an amount greater than the product of (i) the Exchange Cap as of the issuance date multiplied by (ii) the quotient of (1) the initial principal amount of this Debenture divided by (2) the initial principal amount of all other debentures issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Exchange Cap Allocation”). In the event that any Holder shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such Holder’s Debentures, the transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such Holder’s Exchange Cap Allocation with respect to such portion of such Debentures so transferred, and the restrictions of the prior sentence shall apply to such transferee with respect to the portion of the Exchange Cap Allocation so allocated to such transferee.

 

(g) Other Provisions.

 

(i) The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized Common Stock the full number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all outstanding amounts under this Debenture; and within 3 Business Days following the receipt by the Company of a Holder’s notice that such minimum number of Underlying Shares is not so reserved, the Company shall promptly reserve a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to comply with such requirement.

 

(ii) All calculations under this Debenture shall be rounded to the nearest $0.0001 or whole share.

 

(h) Adjustment of the Fixed Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding, shall (a) pay a stock dividend or otherwise make a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of its Common Stock, (b) subdivide outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (c) combine (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of its Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (d) issue by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then the Fixed Conversion Price, as applicable, shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4(h) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

 

(5) REISSUANCE OF THIS DEBENTURE.

 

(a) Transfer. If this Debenture is to be transferred, the Holder shall surrender this Debenture to the Company, whereupon the Company will, subject to the satisfaction of the transfer provisions of the Securities Purchase Agreement, forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Debenture (in accordance with Section 5(d)), registered in the name of the registered transferee or assignee, representing the outstanding Principal being transferred by the Holder and, if less than the entire outstanding Principal is being transferred, a new Debenture (in accordance with Section 5(d)) to the Holder representing the outstanding Principal not being transferred. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Debenture, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of Section 4(c)(iii) following conversion or redemption of any portion of this Debenture, the outstanding Principal represented by this Debenture may be less than the Principal stated on the face of this Debenture.

(b) Lost, Stolen or Mutilated Debenture. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Debenture, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the Company in customary form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Debenture, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new Debenture (in accordance with Section 5(d)) representing the outstanding Principal.

 

(c) Debenture Exchangeable for Different Denominations. This Debenture is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Company, for a new Debenture or Debentures (in accordance with Section 5(d)) representing in the aggregate the outstanding Principal of this Debenture, and each such new Debenture will represent such portion of such outstanding Principal as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender.

 

(d) Issuance of New Debentures. Whenever the Company is required to issue a new Debenture pursuant to the terms of this Debenture, such new Debenture (i) shall be of like tenor with this Debenture, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such new Debenture, the Principal remaining outstanding (or in the case of a new Debenture being issued pursuant to Section 5(a) or Section 5(c), the Principal designated by the Holder which, when added to the principal represented by the other new Debentures issued in connection with such issuance, does not exceed the Principal remaining outstanding under this Debenture immediately prior to such issuance of new Debentures), (iii) shall have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such new Debenture, which is the same as the Issuance Date of this Debenture, (iv) shall have the same rights and conditions as this Debenture, and (v) shall represent accrued and unpaid Interest from the Issuance Date to the date the Debenture is reissued.
