ARTICLE III
CONVERSION OF SHARES
3.1 Conversion of Capital Stock
As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any
action on the part of the holders of any capital stock or other securities
described below:
(a) Each share of the common stock, no par value per
share, of CMPI ("CMPI Common Stock") issued and outstanding immediately
prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and exchanged for
the right to receive fully paid and nonassessable shares of OCG Series
F Stock as provided herein. All such CMPI Common Stock, when so
converted and exchanged, shall no longer be outstanding and shall
automatically be canceled and retired, and the holder of a certificate
("CMPI Stock Certificate") that, immediately prior to the Effective
Time, represented outstanding shares of CMPI Common Stock shall cease
to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive,
upon the surrender of such CMPI Stock Certificate, the shares of OCG
Series F Stock (the "Merger Shares") to which such holder is entitled
pursuant to this Section 3.1(a). Until surrendered as contemplated by
this Section 3.1(a) and Section 3.3(a), each CMPI Stock Certificate
shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only
the right to receive upon such surrender the Merger Shares as
contemplated by this Section 3.1(a). Subject to Section 3.1(c), below,
the number of shares of OCG Series F Stock that will be issued as a
result of the Merger for each share of CMPI Common Stock will equal the
quotient determined by dividing (i) the number of shares of OCG Series
F Stock determined by the formula [(X / .04) x .96)] / 10,000, where X
equals the sum of (1) the total number of shares of OCG Common Stock
outstanding as of the Effective Time plus (2) the total number of
shares of OCG Common Stock issuable upon conversion, in full, of all
OCG Series C Stock (as defined in Section 5.2) outstanding as of the
Effective Time plus (3) the total number of shares of OCG Common Stock
issuable upon the exercise, in full, of any and all shares of OCG Stock
Rights outstanding as of the Effective Time by (ii) the total number of
shares of CMPI Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to
the Effective Time. The number of shares of OCG Series F Stock to be so
issued for each share of CMPI Common Stock is referred to herein as the
"Exchange Ratio."
(b) All outstanding convertible promissory notes of CMPI
(the "CMPI Convertible Notes") outstanding immediately prior to the
Effective Time shall be assumed by and become the principal liabilities
and obligations of OCG on the same terms and conditions thereof as
existed immediately prior to the Effective Date, which notes shall be
convertible into such number of shares of OCG Common Stock (as defined
in Section 5.2) determined in accordance with the terms of such notes.
The "Retained Merger Shares" (as defined in Section 3.2(c)) otherwise
to be received in the Merger by the CMPI Shareholders shall be subject
to cancellation as provided in Section 9.1 based upon such future
conversion of the CMPI Convertible Notes.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, between the date
of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of OCG
Series F Stock or other class or series of OCG Capital Stock (as
defined in Section 5.2) or CMPI Common Stock shall have been changed
into a different number of shares or a different class, by reason of
any stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization,
split, combination or exchange of shares, the Exchange Ratio shall be
4
correspondingly adjusted to reflect such stock dividend, subdivision,
reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination or exchange of
shares; and
(d) Each share of the common stock, $.001 par value per
share, of Merger Sub (the "Merger Sub Common Stock") issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically
be converted into the same number of shares of common stock of the
Surviving Corporation, and shall, immediately after the Merger, be the
only shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation issued and
outstanding.
(e) Each share of each class and series of OCG Capital
Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time
shall remain outstanding and shall not be affected by the Merger.
(f) All OCG Series F Stock issued upon the surrender of
the CMPI Stock Certificates in accordance with the terms hereof shall
be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights
pertaining to such CMPI Stock Certificates and the CMPI Common Stock
formerly represented thereby; and from and after the Effective Time
there shall be no further registration of transfers effected on the
stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of shares of the CMPI
Common Stock which were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective
Time. If, after the Effective Time, CMPI Stock Certificates are
presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be
canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article III.
(g) The parties agree that, notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, the holders of the shares denominated as
"X" in the equation set forth in Section 3.1(a), above, shall own in
the aggregate 4% of total number of shares of OCG Common Stock
outstanding and issuable upon conversion of outstanding OCG Series C
Stock and any outstanding OCG Stock Rights as of the Effective Time and
after giving effect to the conversion, in full, of the CMPI Convertible
Notes following the Closing (but without giving effect to any other
transactions or events subsequent to the Closing).
3.2 Initial Merger Shares
(a) For purposes of this Agreement the following terms
shall have the meanings indicated:
(i) "Maximum CMPI Note Conversion Shares" shall
mean the maximum possible number of shares of OCG Common Stock
issuable upon the conversion, in full, of the CMPI Convertible
Notes outstanding as of the Effective Time;
(ii) "Actual CMPI Note Conversion Shares" shall
mean the actual cumulative aggregate number of shares of CMPI
Common Stock issued upon the conversion, in full, of the CMPI
Convertible Notes;
(iii) "Series F Conversion Shares" shall mean the
number of shares of OCG Common Stock issuable upon the

in the Merger to the CMPI Shareholders; and
5
(iv) "Retention Ratio" shall mean the ratio that
the Maximum CMPI Note Conversion Shares bears to the Series F
Conversion Shares.
(b) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this
Agreement, the initial aggregate number of shares of OCG Series F Stock
to be issued and delivered to the CMPI Shareholders at the Closing (the
"Initial Merger Shares") shall be equal to the product of the total
Merger Shares to which they otherwise would be entitled under Section
3.1(a) multiplied by the Retention Ratio. The Initial Merger Shares
shall be issuable and distributable at the Closing to the CMPI
Shareholders pro rata in accordance with their ownership of CMPI Common
Stock.
(c) In addition to the Initial Merger Shares issuable
pursuant to subparagraph (b), above, at the Closing the balance of the
Merger Shares to which the CMPI Shareholders are entitled under Section
3.1(a) (the "Retained Merger Shares") shall be issued by OCG in the
names of the CMPI Shareholders entitled thereto, and in such
denominations to which such holders are entitled, pursuant to Section
3.1(a), but shall be retained by OCG in escrow as provided in Article
IX. Upon the future conversion or satisfaction and cancellation, as the
case may be, of the CMPI Convertible Notes, the Retained Merger Shares
shall be cancelled by OCG or released to the CMPI Shareholders, as the
case may be, in accordance with Article IX.
3.3 Surrender and Payment
(a) At the Closing, OCG shall issue and deliver to each
holder of a CMPI Stock Certificate that immediately prior to the
Effective Time represented outstanding CMPI Common Stock, the Merger
Shares or the Initial Merger Shares, as the case may be, to which such
holder is entitled, in exchange for the holder's surrender for
cancellation of such CMPI Stock Certificate.
(b) If any shares of OCG Series F Stock are to be issued
to a Person (as hereinafter defined) other than the registered holder
of the CMPI Stock Certificates surrendered in exchange therefor, it
shall be a condition to such issuance that the CMPI Stock Certificates
so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper
form for transfer and that the Person requesting such issuance shall
pay to OCG any transfer or other taxes required as a result of such
issuance to a Person other than the registered holder or establish to
the satisfaction of the OCG that such tax has been paid or is not
applicable.
(c) For purposes of this Agreement, "Person" means an
individual, a corporation, a limited-liability company, a partnership,
an association, a trust or any other entity or organization, including
a governmental or political subdivision or any agency or
instrumentality thereof.
(d) If any CMPI Stock Certificate shall have been lost,
stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by
the Person claiming such CMPI Stock Certificate to be lost, stolen or
destroyed, OCG will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or
destroyed CMPI Stock Certificate the Merger Shares deliverable in
respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement. OCG, in its discretion, may
require as a condition to such issuance that such Person also agree to
6
indemnify, defend and hold harmless OCG from and against any Liability
to any Person with respect to such lost, stolen or destroyed CMPI Stock
Certificate.
3.4 OCG Preferred Stock
Prior to the Closing, OCG shall take such actions as are necessary to
retire the classes of OCG Control Stock designated "Series A Preferred Stock"

shares shall be authorized as of the Closing.

harmless OCG and the Surviving Corporation and OCG's other Subsidiaries
and affiliates, successors or assigns (each, an "Indemnified Party")
for any and all direct or indirect claims, losses, liabilities, damages
(including special and consequential damages), costs (including court
costs) and expenses, including all reasonable attorneys' and
accountants' fees and expenses (hereinafter a "Loss" or "Losses"),
arising from or in connection with (i) any breach or inaccuracy of any
representation or warranty of OCG, whether such breach or inaccuracy
exists or is made on the date of this Agreement or as of the Closing,
(ii) any breach of or noncompliance by OCG or PSI of or with any
covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or in any other
agreement or instrument delivered in connection herewith, (iii) any and
all Liabilities of OCG or any of its Subsidiaries existing on or prior

execution.
(b) The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to defend
any claim, action, suit or proceeding made by any third party against

such approval not to be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that
the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in such defense
with counsel of its choice and at its own expense and, if the
Indemnifying Party does not provide a competent and vigorous defense,
then the Indemnified Party's participation shall be at the expense of
the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Party shall provide such
cooperation and access to its books, records and properties as the
Indemnifying Party shall reasonably request with respect to such
matter; and the parties shall cooperate with each other in order to

shall not settle any claim subject to indemnification hereunder without
the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
(c) With regard to claims of third parties for which
indemnification is payable hereunder, such indemnification shall be
paid by the Indemnifying Party (or amounts may be set off by the
Indemnified Party) upon the earliest to occur of: (i) the entry of a
judgment against the Indemnified Party and the expiration of any
applicable appeal period, (ii) the entry of an unappealable judgment or

otherwise dealing with such claim.

Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party of any claim for
indemnification, specifying in reasonable detail the nature of the Loss
and the amount or an estimate of the amount thereof.
