c) Interest Calculations.  Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 365-day year and shall accrue daily commencing on the Original Issue Date until payment in full of the principal sum, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, liquidated damages and other amounts which may become due hereunder, has been made.  Payment of interest in shares of Common Stock (other than the Interest Conversion Shares issued prior to an Interest Notice Period) shall otherwise occur pursuant to Section 4(d)(ii) herein and, solely for purposes of the payment of interest in shares, the Interest Payment Date shall be deemed the Conversion Date.  Interest shall cease to accrue with respect to any principal amount converted, provided that the Company actually delivers the Conversion Shares within the time period required by Section 4(d)(ii).  Interest hereunder will be paid to the Person in whose name this Debenture is registered on the records of the Company regarding registration and transfers of this Debenture (the “Debenture Register”).  Except as otherwise provided herein, if at any time the Company pays interest partially in cash and partially in shares of Common Stock to the holders of the Debentures, then such payment shall be distributed ratably among the holders of the then-outstanding Debentures based on their (or their predecessor’s) principal amount of Debentures held on the date of the 2008 Settlement Agreement.
 
d) Late Fee.  All overdue accrued and unpaid interest to be paid hereunder shall entail a late fee at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 12% per annum or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law (“Late Fees”) which shall accrue daily from the date such interest is due hereunder through and including the date of payment in full.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if on any Interest Payment Date the Company has elected to pay accrued interest in the form of Common Stock but the Company is not able to pay accrued interest in Common Stock because it fails to satisfy the conditions for payment in Common Stock set forth above, then, at the option of the Holder, the Company, in lieu of delivering either shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Section 2 or paying the regularly scheduled interest payment in cash, shall deliver, within three Trading Days of each applicable Interest Payment Date, an amount in cash equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable to the Holder in connection with the payment of interest due on such Interest Payment Date multiplied by (y) the highest VWAP during the period commencing on the Interest Payment Date and ending on the Trading Day prior to the date such payment is made.  If any Interest Conversion Shares are issued to the Holder in connection with an Interest Payment Date and are not applied against an Interest Share Amount, then the Holder shall promptly return such excess shares to the Company.
 
e) Prepayment.  Except as otherwise set forth in this Debenture, the Company may prepay any portion of the principal amount of this Debenture without the prior written consent of the Holder.
 
Section 3.                       Registration of Transfers and Exchanges.

Section 4.                       Conversion.
 
a) Voluntary Conversion.  At any time after the Original Issue Date until this Debenture is no longer outstanding, this Debenture shall be convertible, in whole or in part, into shares of Common Stock at the option of the Holder, at any time and from time to time (subject to the conversion limitations set forth in Section 4(c) hereof).  The Holder shall effect conversions by delivering to the Company a Notice of Conversion, the form of which is attached hereto as Annex A (a “Notice of Conversion”), specifying therein the principal amount of this Debenture to be converted and the date on which such conversion shall be effected (a “Conversion Date”).  If no Conversion Date is specified in a Notice of Conversion, the Conversion Date shall be the date that such Notice of Conversion is deemed delivered hereunder.  To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Debenture to the Company unless the entire principal amount of this Debenture plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon has been so converted.  Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture in an amount equal to the applicable conversion.  The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the principal amount(s) converted and the date of such conversion(s) and shall make appropriate notations on the Conversion Schedule attached hereto as Schedule 1.  The Company may deliver an objection to any Notice of Conversion within 1 Business Day of delivery of such Notice of Conversion.  In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, the records of the Holder shall be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error.  The Holder, and any assignee by acceptance of this Debenture, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Debenture, the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of this Debenture may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
 
b) Conversion Price.  The conversion price in effect on any Conversion Date shall be equal to $2.00 (subject to adjustment herein) (the “Conversion Price”).

c) Conversion Limitations.
 
i.    
Trading Market Limitations.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, but subject to the provisions of this Section 4(c)(i), if the Company has not obtained Shareholder Approval (as defined below), then the Company may not issue, upon conversion of this Debenture, a number of shares of Common Stock which, when aggregated with any shares of Common Stock issued on or after the Original Issue Date and prior to such Conversion Date (A) in connection with any Debentures issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, (B) in connection with any Warrants issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and (C) in connection with any warrants issued to any registered broker-dealer as a fee in connection with the issuance of the Securities pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, would exceed 19.999% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Original Issue Date (such number of shares, the “Issuable Maximum”).  Each Holder shall be entitled to a portion of the Issuable Maximum equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the aggregate principal amount of the Debenture(s) issued and sold to such Holder on the Original Issue Date by (y) the aggregate principal amount of all Debentures issued and sold by the Company on the Original Issue Date.  If any Holder shall no longer hold the Debenture(s), then such Holder’s remaining portion of the Issuable Maximum, if any, shall be allocated pro-rata among the remaining Holders.  If, on any Conversion Date, (1) the applicable Conversion Price is such that the shares issuable under this Debenture on such Conversion Date, together with the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that would then be issuable upon conversion in full of all then outstanding Debentures, would exceed the Issuable Maximum and (2) the Company shall not have previously obtained Shareholder Approval, then the Company shall issue to the Holder requesting a conversion a number of shares of Common Stock equal to such Holder’s pro-rata portion (which shall be calculated pursuant to the terms hereof) of the Issuable Maximum and, with respect to the remainder of the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures (including any accrued interest) then held by such Holder for which a conversion in accordance with the applicable Conversion Price would result in an issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess of such Holder’s pro-rata portion (which shall be calculated pursuant to the terms hereof) of the Issuable Maximum (the “Excess Principal”), the Company shall be prohibited from converting such Excess Principal and shall promptly notify the Holder of the reason therefor. This Debenture shall thereafter be unconvertible to such extent until and unless Shareholder Approval is subsequently obtained, but this Debenture shall otherwise remain in full force and effect.  The Holder acknowledges and agrees that shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion hereof or exercise of the Warrants are not eligible to vote in connection with the Shareholder Approval.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the foregoing provisions of this Section 4(c)(i) shall apply only to the extent that Shareholder Approval is required by the rules of any Trading Market or of the “Pink Sheets” on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted.

Holder’s Restriction on Conversion.  The Company shall not effect any conversion of this Debenture, and a Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Debenture, to the extent that after giving effect to the conversion set forth on the applicable Notice of Conversion, such Holder (together with such Holder’s Affiliates, and any other person or entity acting as a group together with such Holder or any of such Holder’s Affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below).  For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Debenture with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (A) conversion of the remaining, unconverted principal amount of this Debenture beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company  subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein (including, without limitation, any other Debentures or the Warrants) beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Affiliates.  Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 4(c)(ii), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.  To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 4(c)(ii) applies, the determination of whether this Debenture is convertible (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which principal amount of this Debenture is convertible shall be in the sole discretion of such Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Conversion shall be deemed to be such Holder’s determination of whether this Debenture may be converted (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder together with any Affiliates) and which principal amount of this Debenture is convertible, in each case subject to such aggregate percentage limitations. To ensure compliance with this restriction, each Holder will be deemed to represent to the Company each time it delivers a Notice of Conversion that such Notice of Conversion has not violated the restrictions set forth in this paragraph and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination.  In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.  For purposes of this Section 4(c)(ii), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as stated in the most recent of the following: (A) the Company’s most recent Form 10-QSB (or Form 10-Q) or Form 10-KSB (or Form 10-K), as the case may be; (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company; or (C) a more recent notice by the Company or the Company’s transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.
 
 
12

 

 
Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to such Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding.  In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Debenture, by such Holder or its Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported.  The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Debenture held by the Holder.  The Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 4(c)(ii) may be waived by such Holder, at the election of such Holder, upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Company, to change the Beneficial Ownership Limitation to 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Debenture held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 4(c)(ii) shall continue to apply.  Upon such a change by a Holder of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation from such 4.99% limitation to such 9.99% limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation may not be further waived by such Holder.  The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 4(c)(ii) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation.  The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Debenture.
 
d) Mechanics of Conversion.
 
i.    
Conversion Shares Issuable Upon Conversion of Principal Amount.  The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion hereunder shall be determined by the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture to be converted by (y) the Conversion Price.
 
ii.   
Delivery of Certificate Upon Conversion.  Not later than three Trading Days after each Conversion Date (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Holder (A) a certificate or certificates representing the Conversion Shares which, on or after the Effective Date, shall be free of restrictive legends and trading restrictions (other than those which may then be required by the Purchase Agreement) representing the number of shares of Common Stock being acquired upon the conversion of this Debenture (including, if the Company has given continuous notice pursuant to Section 2(b) for payment of interest in shares of Common Stock at least 20 Trading Days prior to the date on which the Conversion Notice is delivered to the Company, shares of Common Stock representing the payment of accrued interest otherwise determined pursuant to Section 2(a) but assuming that the Interest Notice Period is the 20 Trading Days period immediately prior to the date on which the Conversion Notice is delivered to the Company and excluding for such issuance the condition that the Company deliver Interest Conversion Shares as to such interest payment) and (B) a bank check in the amount of accrued and unpaid interest (if the Company has elected or is required to pay accrued interest in cash). On or after the Effective Date, the Company shall use its best efforts to deliver any certificate or certificates required to be delivered by the Company under this Section 4 electronically through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions.
 
 
13

 

iii.  
Failure to Deliver Certificates.  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 after such third Trading Day, but on or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates, to rescind such Conversion, in which event the Company shall promptly return to the Holder any original Debenture delivered to the Company and the Holder shall promptly return the Common Stock certificates representing the principal amount of this Debenture tendered for conversion to the Company.
 
iv.  
Obligation Absolute; Partial Liquidated Damages.  The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion of this Debenture 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; provided, however, that such delivery shall not operate as a waiver by the Company of any such action the Company may have against the Holder.  In the event the Holder of this Debenture shall elect to convert any or all of the outstanding principal amount hereof, the Company may not refuse conversion based on any claim that the Holder or anyone associated or affiliated with the Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason, unless an injunction from a court, on notice to Holder, restraining and or enjoining conversion of all or part of this Debenture shall have been sought and obtained, and the Company posts a surety bond for the benefit of the Holder in the amount of 120% of the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture, which is subject to the injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the underlying dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Holder to the extent it obtains judgment.  In the absence of such injunction, the Company shall issue Conversion Shares or, if applicable, cash, upon a properly noticed conversion.  If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates pursuant to Section 4(d)(ii) by the third Trading Day after the Conversion Date, the Company shall pay to such Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1000 of principal amount being converted, $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such third Trading Day until such certificates are delivered; provided, however that if the Holder rescinds or withdraws such conversion notice such liquidated damages shall cease to continue to accrue after such date.  Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8 hereof for the Company’s failure to deliver Conversion Shares 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.  The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit the Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law.

v.  
Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Conversion.  In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates by the Share Delivery Date pursuant to Section 4(d)(ii), and if after such Share Delivery Date the Holder is required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common 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 (A) pay in cash to the Holder (in addition to any other remedies available to or elected by the Holder) the amount by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including any brokerage commissions) for the Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that such Holder was entitled to receive from the conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the actual sale price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed (including any brokerage commissions) and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reissue (if surrendered) this Debenture in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of the attempted conversion or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if the Company had timely complied with its delivery requirements under Section 4(d)(ii).  For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of this Debenture with respect to which the actual sale price of the Conversion Shares (including any brokerage commissions) giving rise to such purchase obligation was a total of $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 and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss.  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 Common Stock upon conversion of this Debenture as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
 
vi.  
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 Common Stock for the sole purpose of issuance upon conversion of this Debenture and payment of interest on this Debenture, each as herein provided, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the Holder (and the other holders of the Debentures), not less than such aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock as shall (subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement) be issuable (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 5) upon the conversion of the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture and payment of interest hereunder.  The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and shall be freely tradeable without restriction under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.
 
 
15

 

vii.  
Fractional Shares.  Upon a conversion hereunder the Company shall not be required to issue stock certificates representing fractions of shares of Common Stock, but may if otherwise permitted, make a cash payment in respect of any final fraction of a share based on the VWAP at such time.  If the Company elects not, or is unable, to make such a cash payment, the Holder shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the final fraction of a share, 1 whole share of Common Stock.
 
viii.  
Transfer Taxes.  The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on conversion of this Debenture shall be made without charge to the Holder hereof for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such certificates, 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 of this Debenture so converted 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.
 
Section 5.                       Certain Adjustments.
 
a) Stock Dividends and Stock Splits.  If the Company, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding: (A) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions payable in shares of Common Stock on shares of Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalents (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon conversion of, or payment of interest on, this Debenture); (B) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares; (C) combines (including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares; or (D) issues, in the event of a reclassification of shares of the Common Stock, any shares of capital stock of the Company, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Company) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event.  Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 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.

 
16

 

b) Subsequent Equity Sales.  If the Company or any Subsidiary thereof, as applicable, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding, sells or grants any option to purchase or sells or grants any right to reprice its securities, or otherwise disposes of or issues (or announces any sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition) any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents entitling any Person to acquire shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the then Conversion Price (such lower price, the “Base Conversion Price” and such issuances collectively, a “Dilutive Issuance”) (if the holder of the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which are issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the Conversion Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Conversion Price on such date of the Dilutive Issuance), then the Conversion Price shall be reduced to equal the Base Conversion Price.  Such adjustment shall be made whenever such Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are issued.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment will be made under this Section 5(b) in respect of an Exempt Issuance.  The Company shall notify the Holder in writing, no later than the Business Day following the issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents subject to this Section 5(b), indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms (such notice, the “Dilutive Issuance Notice”).  For purposes of clarification, whether or not the Company provides a Dilutive Issuance Notice pursuant to this Section 5(b), upon the occurrence of any Dilutive Issuance, the Holder is entitled to receive a number of Conversion Shares based upon the Base Conversion Price on or after the date of such Dilutive Issuance, regardless of whether the Holder accurately refers to the Base Conversion Price in the Notice of Conversion.
 
c) Subsequent Rights Offerings.  If the Company, at any time while the Debenture is outstanding, shall issue rights, options or warrants to all holders of Common Stock (and not to Holders) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is lower than the VWAP on the record date referenced below, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding on the date of issuance of such rights or warrants plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered for subscription or purchase, and of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding on the date of issuance of such rights or warrants plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares so offered (assuming delivery to the Company in full of all consideration payable upon exercise of such rights, options or warrants) would purchase at such VWAP.  Such adjustment shall be made whenever such rights or warrants are issued, and shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights, options or warrants.

 
17

 

d) Pro Rata Distributions.  If the Company, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding, distributes to all holders of Common Stock (and not to the Holders) evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security (other than the Common Stock, which shall be subject to Section 5(b)), then in each such case the Conversion Price shall be adjusted by multiplying such Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the VWAP determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be such VWAP on such record date less the then fair market value at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness so distributed applicable to 1 outstanding share of the Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith.  In either case the adjustments shall be described in a statement delivered to the Holder describing the portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or such subscription rights applicable to 1 share of Common Stock.  Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the record date mentioned above.
 
e) Fundamental Transaction.  If, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding, (A) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (B) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one transaction or a series of related transactions, (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, or (D) the Company effects 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 (in any such case, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent conversion of this Debenture, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of 1 share of Common Stock (the “Alternate Consideration”).  For purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Conversion Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of 1 share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Conversion Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration.  If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion of this Debenture following such Fundamental Transaction.  To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to the Holder a new debenture consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder’s right to convert such debenture into Alternate Consideration.  The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this Section 5(e) and insuring that this Debenture (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.

 
18

 

f) Calculations.  All calculations under this Section 5 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.  For purposes of this Section 5, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Company) issued and outstanding.
 
g) Notice to the Holder.
 
i.   
Adjustment to Conversion Price.  Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 5, the Company shall promptly mail to each Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.  If the Company issues a variable rate security, despite the prohibition thereon in the Purchase Agreement, the Company shall be deemed to have issued Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents at the lowest possible conversion or exercise price at which such securities may be converted or exercised in the case of a Variable Rate Transaction (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).
 
ii.  
Notice to Allow Conversion by Holder.  If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, of any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of this Debenture, and shall cause to be delivered to the Holder at its last address as it shall appear upon the Debenture Register, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange, provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice.  The Holder is entitled to convert this Debenture during the 20-day period commencing on the date of such notice through the effective date of the event triggering such notice.
 
 
19

 

Section 6.                       Redemption and Forced Conversion.
 
a) Monthly Redemption.  On each Monthly Redemption Date, the Company shall redeem the Monthly Redemption Amount plus accrued but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and any other amounts then owing to such Holder in respect of this Debenture (the “Monthly Redemption”).  The Monthly Redemption Amount payable on each Monthly Redemption Date shall be paid in cash; provided, however, as to any Monthly Redemption and upon 20 Trading Days’ prior written irrevocable notice (the “Monthly Redemption Notice” and the 20 Trading Day period immediately following the Monthly Redemption Notice, the “Monthly Redemption Period”), in lieu of a cash redemption payment the Company may elect to pay all or part of a Monthly Redemption Amount in Conversion Shares (such dollar amount to be paid on a Monthly Redemption Date in Conversion Shares, the “Monthly Redemption Share Amount”) based on a conversion price equal to the lesser of (i) the then Conversion Price or (ii) 88% of the average of the VWAPs for the 20 consecutive Trading Days ending on the Trading Day that is immediately prior to the applicable Monthly Redemption Date (subject to adjustment for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination or other similar event affecting the Common Stock during such 20 Trading Day period) (the price calculated during the 20 Trading Day period immediately prior to the Monthly Redemption Date, the “Monthly Conversion Price” and such 20 Trading Day period, the “Monthly Conversion Period”); provided, further, that the Company may not pay the Monthly Redemption Amount in Conversion Shares unless (y) except as otherwise provided in Section 8(vi) of the 2008 Settlement Agreement, from the date the Holder receives the duly delivered Monthly Redemption Notice through and until the date such Monthly Redemption is paid in full, the Equity Conditions have been satisfied, unless waived in writing by the Holder, and (z) as to such Monthly Redemption, prior to such Monthly Redemption Period (but not more than 5 Trading Days prior to the commencement of the Monthly Redemption Period), the Company shall have delivered to the Holder’s account with The Depository Trust Company a number of shares of Common Stock to be applied against such Monthly Redemption Share Amount equal to the quotient of (x) the applicable Monthly Redemption Share Amount divided by (y) the lesser of (A) the then Conversion Price or (b) 88% of the average of the VWAPs for the 20 consecutive Trading Days ending on the sixth Trading Day prior to the commencement of the applicable Monthly Redemption Period (subject to adjustment for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination or other similar event affecting the Common Stock during such 20 Trading Day period) (the “Pre-Redemption Conversion Shares”).  The Holder may convert, pursuant to Section 4(a), any principal amount of this Debenture subject to a Monthly Redemption at any time prior to the date that the Monthly Redemption Amount, plus accrued but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and any other amounts then owing to the Holder are due and paid in full.  Unless otherwise indicated by the Holder in the applicable Notice of Conversion, any principal amount of this Debenture converted during the applicable Monthly Redemption Period until the date the Monthly Redemption Amount is paid in full shall be first applied to the principal amount subject to the Monthly Redemption Amount payable in cash and then to the Monthly Redemption Share Amount.  Any principal amount of this Debenture converted during the applicable Monthly Redemption Period in excess of the Monthly Redemption Amount shall be applied against the last principal amount of this Debenture scheduled to be redeemed hereunder, in reverse time order from the Maturity Date; provided, however, if any such conversion is applied against such Monthly Redemption Amount, the Pre-Redemption Conversion Shares, if any were issued in connection with such Monthly Redemption or were not already applied to such conversions, shall be first applied against such conversion.  The Company covenants and agrees that it will honor all Notice of Conversions tendered up until such amounts are paid in full.  The Company’s determination to pay a Monthly Redemption in cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof shall be applied ratably to all of the holders of the then outstanding Debentures based on their (or their predecessor’s) principal amount of Debentures held on the date of the 2008 Settlement Agreement.

 
20

 

b) Optional Redemption at Election of Company.  Subject to the provisions of this Section 6, at any time after the 12-month anniversary of the Effective Date, the Company may deliver a notice to the Holder (an “Optional Redemption Notice” and the date such notice is deemed delivered hereunder, the “Optional Redemption Notice Date”) of its irrevocable election to redeem some or all of the then outstanding Debentures for cash in an amount equal to the Optional Redemption Amount on the 20th Trading Day following the Optional Redemption Notice Date (such date, the “Optional Redemption Date” and such redemption, the “Optional Redemption”).  The Optional Redemption Amount is payable in full on the Optional Redemption Date.  The Company may only effect an Optional Redemption if on each Trading Day during the period commencing on the Optional Redemption Notice Date through to the Optional Redemption Date and through and including the date payment of the Optional Redemption Amount is actually made, each of the Equity Conditions shall have been met.  If any of the Equity Conditions shall cease to be satisfied at any time during the 20 Trading Day period, then the Holder may elect to nullify the Optional Redemption Notice by notice to the Company within 3 Trading Days after the first day on which any such Equity Condition has not been met (provided that if, by a provision of the Transaction Documents, the Company is obligated to notify the Holder of the non-existence of an Equity Condition, such notice period shall be extended to the third Trading Day after proper notice from the Company) in which case the Optional Redemption Notice shall be null and void, ab initio.  The Company covenants and agrees that it will honor all Notices of Conversion tendered from the time of delivery of the Optional Redemption Notice through the date all amounts owing thereon are due and paid in full.
 
c) Redemption Procedure.  The payment of cash or issuance of Common Stock, as applicable, pursuant to an Optional Redemption or Monthly Redemption shall be made on the Optional Redemption Date or Monthly Redemption Date, as applicable.  If any portion of the payment pursuant to an Optional Redemption or Monthly Redemption shall not be paid by the Company by the applicable due date, interest shall accrue thereon until such amount is paid in full at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 12% per annum or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.  Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, if any portion of the Optional Redemption Amount or Monthly Redemption Amount, as applicable remains unpaid after such date, the Holder may elect, by written notice to the Company given at any time thereafter, to invalidate ab initio such redemption, and, with respect to the Company’s failure to honor the Optional Redemption, the Company shall have no further right to exercise such Optional Redemption.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6, the Company’s determination to redeem in cash or its elections under Section 6(b) shall be applied ratably among the Holders of Debentures.  The Holder may elect to convert the outstanding principal amount of the Debenture pursuant to Section 4 prior to actual payment in cash for any redemption under this Section 6 by the delivery of a Notice of Conversion to the Company.

 
21

 

d) Forced Conversion.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if after the six month anniversary of the Effective Date, the Closing Price for each Trading Day during any consecutive 20 calendar days, which period shall have commenced only after the six month anniversary of the Effective Date, such period the (“Threshold Period”) exceeds $15.00 (subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the Original Issue Date) and the average daily volume for such Threshold Period exceeds 100,000 shares of Common Stock per Trading Day (subject to adjustment for forward and reverse stock splits, recapitalizations, stock dividends and the like after the Original Issue Date), the Company may, within 1 Trading Day after the end of any such Threshold Period, deliver a written notice to the Holder (a “Forced Conversion Notice” and the date such notice is delivered to the Holder, the “Forced Conversion Notice Date”) to cause the Holder to convert up to 50% of the then outstanding principal amount of Debentures plus, if so specified in the Forced Conversion Notice, accrued but unpaid interest, it being agreed that the “Conversion Date” for purposes of Section 4 shall be deemed to occur on the third Trading Day following the Forced Conversion Notice Date (such third Trading Day, the “Forced Conversion Date”).  The Company may not deliver a Forced Conversion Notice, and any Forced Conversion Notice delivered by the Company shall not be effective, unless all of the Equity Conditions are met on each Trading Day occurring during the applicable Threshold Period through and including the later of the Forced Conversion Date and the Trading Day after the date such Conversion Shares pursuant to such conversion are delivered to the Holder.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company may only deliver an additional Forced Conversion Notice provided that such second Forced Conversion Notice Date is at least 13 months following the Original Issue Date and each Forced Conversion Notice is dependent on a separate Threshold Period from a prior Forced Conversion Notice.  Any Forced Conversion shall be applied ratably to all Holders based on their initial purchases of Debentures pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, provided that any voluntary conversions by a Holder shall be applied against such Holder’s pro-rata allocation, thereby decreasing the aggregate amount forcibly converted hereunder if only a portion of this Debenture is forcibly converted.  For purposes of clarification, a Forced Conversion shall be subject to all of the provisions of Section 4, including, without limitation, the provision requiring payment of liquidated damages and limitations on conversions.
 
Section 7.                       Negative Covenants.  As long as 20% of the aggregate principal amount of all Debentures issued on the Original Issue Date remain outstanding, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the holders of all Debentures then outstanding (provided, however, that if the principal amount of a holder’s Debenture is less $50,000, such holder’s consent shall not be required):
 
a) other than Permitted Indebtedness, enter into, create, incur, assume, guarantee or suffer to exist any indebtedness for borrowed money of any kind, including but not limited to, a guarantee, on or with respect to any of its property or assets now owned or hereafter acquired or any interest therein or any income or profits therefrom;
 
b) other than Permitted Liens, enter into, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Liens of any kind, on or with respect to any of its property or assets now owned or hereafter acquired or any interest therein or any income or profits therefrom;

 
22

 

c) amend its charter documents, including without limitation, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws, in any manner that materially and adversely affects any rights of the Holder;
 
d) repay, repurchase or offer to repay, repurchase or otherwise acquire more than a de minimis number of shares of its Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents other than as to (a) the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares as permitted or required under the Transaction Documents, (b) repurchases of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents of departing officers and directors of the Company, provided that such repurchases shall not exceed an aggregate of $100,000 for all officers and directors during the term of this Debenture), (c) repurchases of Common Stock pursuant to the Company’s Corporate Stock Repurchase Program; and (d) repurchases of up to 200,000 shares of Common Stock that are subject to Rule 144, from former controlling shareholders of entities acquired by the Company that are not Affiliates of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, provided that (i) the per share purchase price of such shares shall not exceed $6.50 and (ii) such repurchased shares are retired to treasury.
 
e) enter into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing; or
 
f) pay cash dividends or distributions on any equity securities of the Company.
 
At such time that less than 20% of the aggregate principal amount of all Debentures issued on the Original Issue Date remain outstanding, the Company shall no longer be subject to the negative covenants set forth in this Section 7 above or be required to obtain prior written consent of the holders of the Debentures to take the foregoing actions.
