forth the amount of principal it desires to redeem. After receipt of the
Redemption Notice the Holder shall have through the end of the Redemption Notice
Period to elect to convert a portion of this Debenture, up to and not exceeding
an amount of shares of Common Stock that after giving effect to such conversion,
the Holder, together with any affiliate thereof, would beneficially own (as in
accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated
thereunder) 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately after giving effect to such conversion. On the sixth (6th) business
day after the Redemption Notice ("Redemption Payment Due Date"), the Company
shall deliver to the Holder the redemption amount with respect to the principal
amount redeemed after giving effect to conversions effected during the five (5)
business day period. It shall be considered an event of default hereunder if the
Company does not timely make such redemption payment on the Redemption Payment
Due Date and the conversion limitation set forth herein shall no longer apply.
Section 4. Conversion.
(a) Conversion at Option of Holder.
(i) This Debenture shall be convertible into shares of Common Stock at the
option of the Holder, in whole or in part at any time and from time to time,
after the Original Issue Date (as defined in Section 6) (subject to the
limitations on conversion set forth in Section 4(b) hereof). The number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion hereunder equals the quotient
obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding amount of this Debenture to be
converted by (y) the Conversion Price (as defined in Section 4(c)(i)). The
Company shall deliver Common Stock certificates to the Holder prior to the Fifth
(5th) Trading Day after a Conversion Date.
(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if on any
Conversion Date: (1) the number of shares of Common Stock at the time
authorized, unissued and unreserved for all purposes, or held as treasury stock,
is insufficient to pay principal and interest hereunder in shares of Common
Stock; (2) the Common Stock is not listed or quoted for trading on the a Primary
Market; or (3) the Company has failed to timely satisfy a conversion; then, at
the option of the Holder, the Company, in lieu of delivering shares of Common
Stock pursuant to Section 4(a)(i), shall deliver, within three (3) Trading Days
of each applicable Conversion Date, an amount in cash equal to the product of
the outstanding principal amount to be converted divided by the applicable
Conversion Price, and multiplied by the highest Closing Bid Price of the stock
from date of the conversion notice till the date that such cash payment is made.
Further, if the Company shall not have delivered any cash due in respect of
conversion of this Debenture by the fifth (5th) Trading Day after the Conversion
Date, the Holder may, by notice to the Company, require the Company to issue
shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 4(c), except that for such purpose
the Conversion Price applicable thereto shall be the lesser of the Conversion
Price on the Conversion Date and the Conversion Price on the date of such Holder
demand. Any such shares will be subject to the provisions of this Section.
(iii) The Holder shall effect conversions by delivering to the Company a
completed notice in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (a "Conversion
Notice"). The date on which a Conversion Notice is delivered is the "Conversion
Date." Unless the Holder is converting the entire principal amount outstanding
under this Debenture, the Holder is not required to physically surrender this
Debenture to the Company in order to effect conversions. Conversions hereunder
shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding principal amount of this
Debenture plus all accrued and unpaid interest or such principal amount in an
amount equal to the applicable conversion. The Holder and the Company shall
maintain records showing the principal amount converted and the date of such
conversions.
(b) Certain Conversion Restrictions.
(i) The Company shall not effect any conversions of this Debenture and the
Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Debenture or
receive shares of Common Stock as payment of interest or principal hereunder to
the extent that after giving effect to such conversion or receipt of such
interest or principal payment, the Holder, together with any affiliate thereof,
would beneficially own (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the
Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 4.99% of the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to
such conversion or receipt of shares as payment of interest. Since the Holder
will not be obligated to report to the Company the number of shares of Common
Stock it may hold at the time of a conversion hereunder, unless the conversion
at issue would result in the issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess of
4.99% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock without regard to any other
shares which may be beneficially owned by the Holder or an affiliate thereof,
the Holder shall have the authority and obligation to determine whether the
restriction contained in this Section will limit any particular conversion
hereunder and to the extent that the Holder determines that the limitation
contained in this Section applies, the determination of which portion of the
principal amount of this Debenture is convertible shall be the responsibility
and obligation of the Holder. If the Holder has delivered a Conversion Notice
for a interest or principal amount of this Debenture that, without regard to any
other shares that the Holder or its affiliates may beneficially own, would
result in the issuance in excess of the permitted amount hereunder, the Company
shall notify the Holder of this fact and shall honor the conversion for the
maximum interest or principal amount permitted to be converted on such
Conversion Date in accordance with the periods described in Section 4(a)(i) and,
any principal amount tendered for conversion in excess of the permitted amount
hereunder shall remain outstanding under this Debenture. The provisions of this
Section may be waived by a Holder (but only as to itself and not to any other
Holder) upon not less than 65 days prior notice to the Company. Other Holders
shall be unaffected by any such waiver.
(c) Conversion Price and Adjustments to Conversion Price.
(i) The conversion price in effect on any Conversion Date shall be equal to
$0.0075 per share (the "Conversion Price"). The Conversion Price may be adjusted
pursuant to the terms of this Debenture.
(ii) If the Company, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding, shall
(a) pay a stock dividend or otherwise make a distribution or distributions on
shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities
payable in shares of Common Stock, (b) subdivide outstanding shares of Common
Stock into a larger number of shares, (c) combine (including by way of reverse
stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares,
or (d) issue by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of
capital stock of the Company, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a
fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
(excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding before such event and of which
the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding after
such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 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.
(iii) If the Company, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding,
shall issue rights, options or warrants to all holders of Common Stock (and not
to the Holder) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common
Stock at a price per share less than the Conversion Price except to officers,
employees and directors of the Company, then the Conversion Price shall be
multiplied by a fraction, of which the denominator shall be the number of shares
of the Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) 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 (excluding treasury shares, if
any) 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 would purchase at the Conversion Price. 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. However, upon the expiration of any
such right, option or warrant to purchase shares of the Common Stock the
issuance of which resulted in an adjustment in the Conversion Price pursuant to
this Section, if any such right, option or warrant shall expire and shall not
have been exercised, the Conversion Price shall immediately upon such expiration
be recomputed and effective immediately upon such expiration be increased to the
price which it would have been (but reflecting any other adjustments in the
Conversion Price made pursuant to the provisions of this Section after the
issuance of such rights or warrants) had the adjustment of the Conversion Price
made upon the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the
basis of offering for subscription or purchase only that number of shares of the
Common Stock actually purchased upon the exercise of such rights, options or
warrants actually exercised.
(iv) If the Company or any subsidiary thereof, as applicable, at any time
while this Debenture is outstanding, shall issue shares of Common Stock or
rights, warrants, options or other securities or debt that are convertible into
or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock ("Common Stock Equivalents")
entitling any Person to acquire shares of Common Stock, at a price per share
less than the Conversion Price (if the holder of the Common Stock or Common
Stock Equivalent 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 is
issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common
Stock at a price per share which is less than the Conversion Price, such
issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Conversion Price),
then, at the sole option of the Holder, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted
to mirror the conversion, exchange or purchase price for such Common Stock or
Common Stock Equivalents (including any reset provisions thereof) at issue. Such
adjustment shall be made whenever such Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents
are issued. The Company shall notify the Holder in writing, no later than one
(1) business day following the issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock
Equivalent subject to this Section, indicating therein the applicable issuance
price, or of applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price and other
pricing terms. No adjustment under this Section shall be made as a result of
issuances of Excluded Securities.
(v) If the Company, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding, shall
distribute to all holders of Common Stock (and not to the Holder) evidences of
its indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase
any security, then in each such case the Conversion Price at which this
Debenture shall thereafter be convertible shall be determined by multiplying the
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 Closing Bid Price determined as
of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be such
Closing Bid Price 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 one outstanding share of the Common Stock as
determined by the Board of Directors in good faith. In either case the
adjustments shall be described in a statement provided to the Holder of the
portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or such
subscription rights applicable to one 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.
(vi) In case of any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory
share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is converted into other
securities, cash or property, the Holder shall have the right thereafter to, at
its option, (A) convert the then outstanding principal amount, together with all
accrued but unpaid interest and any other amounts then owing hereunder in
respect of this Debenture into the shares of stock and other securities, cash
and property receivable upon or deemed to be held by holders of the Common Stock
following such reclassification or share exchange, and the Holder of this
Debenture shall be entitled upon such event to receive such amount of
securities, cash or property as the shares of the Common Stock of the Company
into which the then outstanding principal amount, together with all accrued but
unpaid interest and any other amounts then owing hereunder in respect of this
Debenture could have been converted immediately prior to such reclassification
or share exchange would have been entitled, or (B) require the Company to prepay
the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture, plus all interest and other
amounts due and payable thereon. The entire prepayment price shall be paid in
cash. This provision shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications or
share exchanges.
(vii) Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 4
hereof, the Company shall promptly mail to the Holder a notice setting forth the
Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of
the facts requiring such adjustment.
(viii) If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other
distribution) 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 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 mailed to the Holder at its last address as it shall appear upon the
stock books of the Company, 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 mail such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing 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 calendar period commencing the date of such notice to the effective date
of the event triggering such notice.
(ix) In case of any (1) merger or consolidation of the Company or any
subsidiary of the Company with or into another Person, or (2) sale by the
Company or any subsidiary of the Company of more than one-half of the assets of
the Company in one or a series of related transactions, a Holder shall have the
right to (A) exercise any rights under Section 2(b), (B) convert the aggregate
amount of this Debenture then outstanding into the shares of stock and other
securities, cash and property receivable upon or deemed to be held by holders of
Common Stock following such merger, consolidation or sale, and such Holder shall
be entitled upon such event or series of related events to receive such amount
of securities, cash and property as the shares of Common Stock into which such
aggregate principal amount of this Debenture could have been converted
immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or sales would have been
entitled, or (C) in the case of a merger or consolidation, require the surviving
entity to issue to the Holder a convertible Debenture with a principal amount
equal to the aggregate principal amount of this Debenture then held by such
Holder, plus all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts owing thereon,
which such newly issued convertible Debenture shall have terms identical
(including with respect to conversion) to the terms of this Debenture, and shall
be entitled to all of the rights and privileges of the Holder of this Debenture
set forth herein and the agreements pursuant to which this Debentures were
issued. In the case of clause (C), the conversion price applicable for the newly
issued shares of convertible preferred stock or convertible Debentures shall be
based upon the amount of securities, cash and property that each share of Common
Stock would receive in such transaction and the Conversion Price in effect
immediately prior to the effectiveness or closing date for such transaction. The
terms of any such merger, sale or consolidation shall include such terms so as
to continue to give the Holder the right to receive the securities, cash and
property set forth in this Section upon any conversion or redemption following
such event. This provision shall similarly apply to successive such events.
(d) Other Provisions.
(i) The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its
authorized Common Stock the full number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of all outstanding amounts under this Debenture; and within three (3)
Business Days following the receipt by the Company of a Holder's notice that
such minimum number of Underlying Shares is not so reserved, the Company shall
promptly reserve a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to comply with
such requirement.
(ii) All calculations under this Section 4 shall be rounded up to the
nearest $0.0001 or whole share.
(iiii) The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep
available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock solely for
the 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,
not less than such number of shares of the Common Stock as shall (subject to any
additional requirements of the Company as to reservation of such shares set
forth in this Debenture or in the Transaction Documents) be issuable (taking
into account the adjustments and restrictions set forth herein) 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 and validly authorized, issued
and fully paid and nonassessable.
(iv) Upon a conversion hereunder the Company shall not be required to issue
stock certificates representing fractions of shares of the Common Stock, but may
if otherwise permitted, make a cash payment in respect of any final fraction of
a share based on the Closing Bid Price 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, one whole share of Common
Stock.
(v) The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on
conversion of this Debenture shall be made without charge to the Holder thereof
for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the
issue or delivery of such certificate, 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 such 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.
(vi) Nothing herein shall limit a Holder's right to pursue actual damages
or declare an Event of Default pursuant to Section 2 herein for the Company 's
failure to deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon
conversion within the period specified herein and such Holder shall have the
right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including,
without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief,
in each case without the need to post a bond or provide other security. 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.
(vii) In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the
Company fails to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates pursuant
to Section 4(a)(i) by the fifth (5th) Trading Day after the Conversion Date, and
if after such fifth (5th) Trading Day the Holder purchases (in an open market
transaction or otherwise) Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by
such Holder of the Underlying Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon
such conversion (a "Buy-In"), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the
Holder (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by the Holder) the
amount by which (x) the Holder's total purchase price (including brokerage
commissions, if any) for the Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product
of (1) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that such Holder
anticipated receiving from the conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the market
price of the Common Stock at the time of the sale giving rise to such purchase
obligation and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reissue a Debenture in
the 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 had the Company timely complied with its delivery requirements under
Section 4(a)(i). 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 Debentures with respect to which the market price of the
Underlying Shares on the date of conversion 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.
(viii) The Company has made available to the Holder the Company's Form
10-QSB for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, including, without limitation,
the financial statements of the Company contained therein.

provision is inapplicable to any person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless
remain applicable to all other persons and circumstances. If it shall be found
that any interest or other amount deemed interest due hereunder shall violate
applicable laws governing usury, the applicable rate of interest due hereunder
shall automatically be lowered to equal the maximum permitted rate of interest.
The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall
not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take
the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law or other law which
would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the
principal of or interest on this Debenture as contemplated herein, wherever
enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the
covenants or the performance of this indenture, and the Company (to the extent
it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefits or advantage of any
such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder,
delay or impeded the execution of any power herein granted to the Holder, but
will suffer and permit the execution of every such as though no such law has
been enacted.
Section 15. Whenever any payment or other obligation hereunder shall be due
on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next
succeeding Business Day.

amount of Debentures of different authorized denominations, as requested by the
Holder surrendering the same. No service charge will be made for such
registration of transfer or exchange.

WAIVE THE RIGHT ANY OF THEM MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY
LITIGATION BASED HEREON OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS
