payable annually on or before December 31st,
beginning on the first such date after the Original Issue Date, on each

Date”) (if any Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day, then the
applicable payment shall be due on the next succeeding Business Day), in
cash or, at the Company’s option, in duly authorized, validly issued,
fully, paid non-assessable shares of Common Stock at the Interest Conversion
Rate (the dollar amount to be paid in shares, the “Interest Share Amount”) or a
combination thereof; provided, however, that payment
in shares of Common Stock may only occur if (i) all of the Equity Conditions

interest hereunder on the applicable Interest Payment Date either in cash,

in such notice that the election contained in such notice shall apply to future
Interest Payment Dates until revised by a subsequent notice. During
any Interest Notice Period, the Company’s election (whether specific to an
Interest Payment Date or continuous) shall be irrevocable as to such Interest
Payment Date. Subject to the aforementioned conditions, failure to
timely deliver such written notice to the Holder shall be deemed an election by
the Company to pay the interest on such Interest Payment Date in
cash. The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock otherwise
issuable to the Holder on an Interest Payment Date shall be reduced by the
number of Interest Conversion Shares previously issued to the Holder in
connection with such Interest Payment Date.
6
b) Interest
Calculations. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day
year, consisting of twelve 30 calendar day periods, and shall accrue daily
commencing on the Original Issue Date until payment in full of the outstanding
principal, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, liquidated damages and
other amounts which may become due hereunder, has been made. 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) herein. 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”).
c) 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 17%
per annum or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law (the “Late Fees”) which
shall accrue daily from the date such interest is due hereunder through and
including the date of actual payment in full.
d) Prepayment. 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.
a) Different
Denominations. This Debenture is exchangeable for an equal aggregate
principal amount of Debentures of different authorized denominations, as
requested by the Holder surrendering the same. No service charge will
be payable for such registration of transfer or exchange.

Representations. This Debenture has been issued subject to certain
investment representations of the original Holder set forth in the
Subscription Agreement and may be transferred or exchanged only in
compliance with the Subscription Agreement and applicable federal and state
securities laws and regulations.
c) Reliance on Debenture
Register. Prior to due presentment for transfer to the Company of this
Debenture, the Company and any agent of the Company may treat the Person in
whose name this Debenture is duly registered on the Debenture Register as the
owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment as herein provided and for all
other purposes, whether or not this Debenture is overdue, and neither the
Company nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary.

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 (each, a “Conversion”) by
delivering to the Company a Notice of Conversion, the form of which is attached
hereto as Annex
A (each, 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 (such
date, the“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). The Company maydeliver 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 term “Conversion Price” as used herein shall
be equal to $.004 pershare(the “Conversion
Price”).
8
c) ▇▇▇▇▇▇’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 theconversionset forth on
the applicable Notice of Conversion, the Holder (together with the Holder’s
Affiliates, and any other person or entity acting as a group together with the
Holder or any of the 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 the 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 the 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 the Holder or any of its Affiliates. Except
as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 4(c),
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)applies, the
determination of whether this Debenture is convertible (in relation to other
securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which
principal amount of this Debenture is convertible shall be in the sole
discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Conversion shall be
deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Debenture may be
converted (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any
Affiliates) and which principal amount of this Debenture is convertible, in each
case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. To ensure compliance with
this restriction, the 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 Actand the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.For purposes of
this Section 4(c), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common
Stock, the 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
periodic or annual report, 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. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company
shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the 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 the 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 Holder, upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the
Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions
of this Section 4(c), provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no
event exceeds 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 Beneficial Ownership
Limitation provisions of this Section 4(c) shall continue to apply.Any such
increase or decrease will not be effective until the 61st day
after such notice is delivered to the Company. The Beneficial Ownership
Limitation 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)
to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or
inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation contained herein
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.
9
d)
Mechanics of
Conversion.
i. Conversion Shares Issuable
Upon Conversion of Principal Amount. The number of Conversion
Shares 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 five Trading Days after each Conversion Date
(the “Share Delivery
Date”), the Company shalldeliver,or cause to be delivered, to the Holder
(A) a certificate or certificates representing the Conversion Shares
representing the number of Conversion Shares being acquired upon the conversion
of this Debenture and (B) a bank check in the amount of accrued and unpaid
interest.
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 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
to the Company the Common Stock certificates representing the principal amount
of this Debentureunsuccessfullytendered 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 150% 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 the 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 the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty,
for each $1,000 of principal amount being converted, $10 per Trading Day
(increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth (5th) Trading Day after such
liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such third
(3th)
Trading Day until such certificates are delivered. Nothing herein
shall limit a ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of
Default pursuant to Section 9 hereof for the Company’s failure to deliver
Conversion Shares within the period specified herein and the 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.
10
v. Compensation for Buy-In on
Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇ 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), or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise
purchases,shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the
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 the 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.
11
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. 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
non-assessable.
vii. Fractional Shares. No
fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon
the conversion of this Debenture. As to any fraction of a share which
Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such conversion, the Company
shall at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final
fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Conversion Price
or round up to the next whole share.
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 Debentureso 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.
(e)
No Mandatory
Conversion. Other than as specifically set forth herein, the
Company may not compel the Holder to convert this Debenture.
12
Section
5. Certain
Adjustments.
a) Stock Dividends and Stock
Splits. If the Company, at any time while this
Debentureisoutstanding: (i) 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, the Debentures), (ii) subdivides
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii)
combines (including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (iv) 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.
b) Subsequent Equity
Sales. If, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding,
the Company or any Subsidiary, as applicable, sells or grants any option to
purchase or sells or grants any right to reprice, 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 that would be in effect at the time of such
issuance (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 1
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.
13
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.
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, (i) the
Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another
Person, (ii) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its
assets in one transaction or a series of related transactions, (iii) 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 (iv) 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”), thenupon 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.
14
f) RESERVED.
g) 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.
h) 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 deliver 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.
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 twenty (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.

granted to the Holder, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such as
