1.  
Agreement.

The Debenture is issued pursuant to that certain Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”), dated the same date as first set forth herein, by and between Andronics, Ltd. and Jinkhold, Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Maker, which is hereby incorporated by reference.

3.  
Loss Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of the Debenture.

Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of the Debenture and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of an indemnity bond in such reasonable amount as the Company may determine (or if such Debenture is held by the original Holder, of an unsecured indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Company) or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Debenture, the Company will make and deliver, in lieu of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Debenture, a new Debenture of like tender and unpaid principal amount and dated as of the date to which interest has been paid on the Debenture so lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated.

4.  
Registered Holder.

The Company may deem and treat the person in whose name any Debenture is registered as the absolute owner and Holder of such Debenture for the purpose of receiving payment of the principal of and interest on such Debenture and for the purpose of any notices, waivers or consents thereunder, whether or not such Debenture shall be overdue, and the Company shall not be affected by notice to the contrary.  Payments with respect to any Debenture shall be made only to the registered Holder thereof.

The Company may, as a condition of payment of all or any of the principal of, and interest on, the Debenture, or its conversion, require Holder to present the Debenture for notation of such payment and, if the Debenture be paid in full or converted at the election of Holder as herein provided, require the surrender hereof.

6.  
Subordination.

The Company, in its sole discretion, may subordinate the Debenture to any Senior Debt of the Company.  For purposes of the Debenture, “Senior Debt” shall mean all indebtedness for all principal, fees, expenses, interest, penalties, post-bankruptcy petition interest, and all other amounts payable for money borrowed.
