FUSION NETWORKS HOLDINGS INC.
6% SECURED CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE
DUE JUNE 13, 2001
THIS DEBENTURE is one of a series of duly authorized and issued debentures
of Fusion Networks Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation, having a principal
place of business at 0000 XX 00xx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx, XX 00000 (the "Company"),
designated as its 6% Secured Convertible Debentures, due June 13, 2001, in the
aggregate principal amount of Four Million Dollars ($4,000,000) (the
"Debentures").
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Company promises to pay to [ ], or its registered
assigns (the "Holder"), the principal sum of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000),
on June 13, 2001 or such earlier date as the Debentures are required or
permitted to be repaid as provided hereunder (the "Maturity Date") and to pay
interest to the Holder on the aggregate unconverted and then outstanding
principal amount of this Debenture at the rate of 6% per annum, payable on each
Conversion Date (as defined herein) and on the Maturity Date, in cash or shares
of Common Stock (as defined in Section 6). The Company may not prepay any
portion of the principle amount or interest on this Debenture. Subject to the
terms and conditions herein, the decision whether to pay interest hereunder in
shares of Common Stock or cash shall be at the discretion of the Company. Not
less than ten Trading Days (as defined in Section 6) prior to each Conversion
Date, the Company shall provide the Holder with written notice of its election
to pay interest hereunder either in cash or shares of Common Stock pursuant to
the terms of Section 4(a)(i) (the Company may indicate in such notice that the
election contained in such notice shall continue for later periods until
revised). Failure to timely provide such written notice shall be deemed an
election by the Company to pay the interest on such Conversion Date in shares of
Common Stock pursuant to the terms of Section 4(a)(i). Interest shall be
calculated on the basis on a 360-day year and shall accrue daily commencing on
the Original Issue Date (as defined in Section 6) until payment in full of the
principal sum, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts
which may become due hereunder, has been made. Interest hereunder will be paid
to the Person (as defined in Section 6) in whose name this Debenture is
registered on the records of the Company regarding registration and transfers of
Debentures (the "Debenture Register"). All overdue accrued and unpaid interest
to be paid in cash hereunder shall entail a late fee at the rate of 18% per
annum (or such lower maximum amount of interest permitted to be charged under
applicable law) (to accrue daily, from the date such interest is due hereunder
through and including the date of payment), payable in cash. This Debenture is
subject to the following additional provisions:
Section 1. 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 made for such
registration of transfer or exchange.
Section 2. This Debenture has been issued subject to certain investment
representations of the original Holder set forth in the Purchase Agreement (as
defined in Section 6) and may be transferred or exchanged only in compliance
with the Purchase Agreement and the legend set forth on the face of this
Debenture. Prior to due presentment to the Company for transfer of this
Debenture, the Company and any agent of the Company may treat the Person (as
defined in Section 6) 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.

which there may be issued, or by which there may be secured or
evidenced any indebtedness for borrowed money or money due under any
long term leasing or factoring arrangement of the Company in an amount
exceeding an aggregate of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000),
whether such indebtedness now exists or shall hereafter be created and
such default shall result in such indebtedness becoming or being
declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise
become due and payable;
(v) either the Common Stock or the Common Stock of MSGI shall be

(vi) the Company shall be a party to any Change of Control

either case, for more than twenty Trading Days;
(ix) an Event (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement)

the expiration of thirty days from the Event Date (as defined in the
Registration Rights Agreement) relating thereto (other than an Event
resulting from a failure of an Underlying Shares Registration
Statement to be declared effective by the Commission on or prior to
the 240th day after the Original Issue Date, which shall be covered by
Section 3(a)(vii));
(x) the Company shall fail for any reason to deliver certificates
to a Holder prior to the tenth day after a Conversion Date pursuant to
and in accordance with Section 4(b) or the Company shall provide
notice to the Holder, including by way of public announcement, at any

any Debentures in accordance with the terms hereof; or
(xi) the Company shall fail for any reason to deliver the payment
in cash pursuant to a Buy-In (as defined herein) within seven days
after notice is delivered hereunder.
(b) During the time that any portion of this Debenture remains outstanding,
if any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the full principal amount of
this Debenture (and, at the Holder's option, all other Debentures then held by
such Holder), together with interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof,
to the date of acceleration shall become, at the Holder's election immediately
due and payable in cash. The aggregate amount payable upon an Event of Default
shall be equal to the sum of (i) the Mandatory Prepayment Amount (as defined in
Section 6) plus (ii) the product of (A) the number of Underlying Shares issued
in respect of conversions hereunder within thirty days of the date of a
declaration of an Event of Default and then held by the Holder and (B) the
Closing Price (as defined in Section 6) on the date prepayment is due or the
date the full prepayment price is paid, whichever is greater. Interest shall
accrue on the prepayment amount hereunder from the seventh day after such amount
is due (being the date of an Event of Default) through the date of prepayment in
full thereof at the rate of 18% per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is
permitted to be paid by applicable law), to accrue daily from the date such
payment is due hereunder through and including the date of payment. All
Debentures and Underlying Shares for which the full prepayment price hereunder
shall have been paid in accordance herewith shall promptly be surrendered to or
as directed by the Company. The Holder need not provide and the Company hereby
waives any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and the
Holder may immediately and without expiration of any grace period enforce any
and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to
it under applicable law. Such declaration may be rescinded and annulled by
Xxxxxx at any time prior to payment hereunder. No such rescission or annulment
shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent
thereon. Section 4. Conversion.
4
(a) (i) Conversion at Option of Holder. (A) 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 (subject to the limitations on conversion set forth in Section
4(a)(ii) hereof). The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon a
conversion hereunder shall be determined by adding the sum of (i) the
quotient obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding principal amount of this
Debenture to be converted and (y) the Conversion Price (as defined herein),
and (ii) the amount equal to (I) the product of (x) the outstanding
principal amount of this Debenture to be converted and (y) the product of
(1) the quotient obtained by dividing .06 by 360 and (2) the number of days
for which such principal amount was outstanding, divided by (II) the
Conversion Price on the Conversion Date, provided, that if the Company
shall have timely elected to pay the interest due on a Conversion Date in
cash pursuant to the terms hereof, subsection (ii) shall not be used in the
calculation of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon a
conversion hereunder.
(B) 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 interest hereunder in shares of Common Stock;
(2) such shares of Common Stock (x) are not registered for resale
pursuant to an effective Underlying Shares Registration Statement and
(y) may not be sold without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule
144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act (as defined in Section 6),
as determined by counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion
letter, addressed to the Company's transfer agent in the form and
substance acceptable to the applicable Holder and such transfer agent
(if the shares of Common Stock are permitted by the Holder to be
delivered under this clause (2) prior to the Effectiveness Date (as
defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) and thereafter an
Underlying Shares Registration Statement shall be declared effective
by the Commission, the Company shall, within three Trading Days after
the date of such declaration of effectiveness, exchange such shares
for shares of Common Stock that are free of restrictive legends of any
kind);
(3) the Common Stock is not listed or quoted on the NASDAQ or on
a Subsequent Market;
(4) the Company has failed to timely satisfy its conversion
obligations hereunder; or
5
(5) the issuance of such shares of Common Stock would result in a
violation of Sections 4(a)(ii)(A) and (B),
then, at the option of the Holder, the Company, in lieu of delivering
shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 4(a)(i)(A)(ii), shall
deliver, within three Trading Days of each applicable Conversion Date,
an amount in cash equal to the product of (a) the outstanding
principal amount of the Debentures to be converted on such Conversion
Date and (b) the product of (x) the quotient obtained by dividing .06
by 360 and (y) the number of days for which such principal amount was
outstanding.
(C) The Holder shall effect conversions by surrendering the
Debentures (or such portions thereof) to be converted, together with
the form of conversion notice attached hereto as Exhibit A (a
"Conversion Notice") to the Company. Each Conversion Notice shall
specify the principal amount of Debentures to be converted, the
applicable Conversion Price and the date on which such conversion is
to be effected, which date may not be prior to the date such
Conversion Notice is deemed to have been delivered hereunder (a
"Conversion Date"). If no Conversion Date is specified in a Conversion
Notice, the Conversion Date shall be the date that such Conversion
Notice is deemed delivered hereunder. Subject to Section 4(b), each
Conversion Notice, once given, shall be irrevocable. If the Holder is
converting less than all of the principal amount represented by the
Debenture(s) tendered by the Holder with the Conversion Notice, or if
a conversion hereunder cannot be effected in full for any reason, the
Company shall honor such conversion to the extent permissible
hereunder and shall promptly deliver to such Holder (in the manner and
within the time set forth in Section 4(b)) a new Debenture for such
principal amount as has not been converted.
(ii) Certain Conversion Restrictions.
(A) A Holder may not convert Debentures or receive shares of
Common Stock as payment of interest hereunder to the extent such
conversion or receipt of such interest payment would result in the
Holder, together with any affiliate thereof, beneficially owning (as
determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (as
defined in Section 6) and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess
of 4.999% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock,
including shares issuable upon conversion of, and payment of interest
on, the Debentures held by such Holder after application of this
Section. 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 4.999% 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 Debentures
are convertible shall be the responsibility and obligation of the
Holder. If the Holder has delivered a Conversion Notice for a
principal amount of Debentures 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 principal amount permitted to be converted
on such Conversion Date in accordance with the periods described in
Section 4(b) and, at the option of the Holder, either retain any
principal amount tendered for conversion in excess of the permitted
amount hereunder for future conversions or return such excess
principal amount to the Holder. 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 61 days prior notice to the Company. Other Holders
shall be unaffected by any such waiver.
6
(B) A Holder may not convert Debentures or receive shares of
Common Stock as payment of interest hereunder to the extent such
conversion or receipt of such interest payment would result in the
Holder, together with any affiliate thereof, beneficially owning (as
determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and
the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 9.999% of the then
issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, including shares
issuable upon conversion of, and payment of interest on, the
Debentures held by such Holder after application of this Section.
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 9.999% 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 Debentures
are convertible shall be the responsibility and obligation of the
Holder. If the Holder has delivered a Conversion Notice for a
principal amount of Debentures 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 principal amount permitted to be converted
on such Conversion Date in accordance with the periods described in
Section 4(b) and, at the option of the Holder, either retain any
principal amount tendered for conversion in excess of the permitted
amount hereunder for future conversions or return such excess
principal amount to the Holder. 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 61 days prior notice to the Company. Other Holders
shall be unaffected by any such waiver.
7
(b) (i) Not later than three Trading Days after any Conversion
Date, the Company will deliver to the Holder (i) a certificate or
certificates which shall be free of restrictive legends and trading
restrictions (other than those required by Section 3.1(b) of the
Purchase Agreement) representing the number of shares of Common Stock
being acquired upon the conversion of Debentures (subject to the
limitations set forth in Section 4(a)(ii) hereof), (ii) Debentures in
a principal amount equal to the principal amount of Debentures not
converted, and (iii) a bank check in the amount of accrued and unpaid
interest (if the Company has timely elected or is required to pay
accrued interest in cash), provided, that the Company shall not be
obligated to issue certificates evidencing the shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of the principal amount of Debentures until
Debentures are delivered for conversion to the Company, or the Holder
notifies the Company that such Debentures have been lost, stolen or
destroyed and provides a bond (or other adequate security) reasonably
satisfactory to the Company to indemnify the Company from any loss
incurred by it in connection therewith. The Company shall, upon
request of the Holder, if available, use its best efforts to deliver
any certificate or certificates required to be delivered by the
Company under this Section electronically through the Depository Trust
Corporation or another established clearing corporation performing
similar functions. If in the case of any Conversion Notice such
certificate or certificates are not delivered to or as directed by the
applicable Holder by the third Trading Day after a Conversion Date,
the Holder shall be entitled by written notice to the Company at any
time on or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates
thereafter, to rescind such conversion, in which event the Company
shall immediately return the certificates representing the principal
amount of Debentures tendered for conversion.
(ii) If the Company fails to deliver to the Holder such
certificate or certificates pursuant to Section 4(b)(i) 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, $5,000
for each Trading Day after such third Trading Day until such
certificates are delivered. Nothing herein shall limit a Xxxxxx's
right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of Default pursuant
to Section 3 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.
The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit the Holders from
seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or
under applicable law. Further, if the Company shall not have delivered
any cash due in respect of conversions of Debentures or as payment of
interest thereon by the third 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 provision of this Section.
(iii) 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(b)(i) by the third Trading Day
after the Conversion Date, and if after such third 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 Debentures in
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(b)(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. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to
the contrary, if a Holder requires the Company to make payment in
respect of a Buy-In for the failure to timely deliver certificates
hereunder and the Company timely pays in full such payment, the
Company shall not be required to pay such Holder liquidated damages
under Section 4(b)(ii) in respect of the certificates resulting in
such Buy-In.
8
(c) (i)(A) The conversion price in effect on any Conversion Date shall be
$1.75 (subject to adjustments as set forth herein) (the "Conversion Price").
(ii) If the Company, at any time while any Debentures are outstanding,
(a) shall 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 any Debentures are
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 less than the Closing
Price at the record date mentioned 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 (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 such Closing 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.
9
(iv) If the Company or any subsidiary thereof, as applicable with
respect to Common Stock Equivalents (as defined below), at any time while
Debentures are 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
issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of
Common Stock at a price 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, either (1) the Conversion Price shall be
multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of
such shares of Common Stock or such Common Stock Equivalents plus the
number of shares of Common Stock which the offering price for such shares
of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents would purchase at the
Conversion Price, and the denominator of which shall be the sum of the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such
issuance plus the number of shares of Common Stock so issued or issuable,
or (2) the Conversion Price shall be replaced with the conversion, exchange
or purchase price for such Common Stock Equivalents (including any reset
provisions thereof), provided, that for purposes hereof, all shares of
Common Stock that are issuable upon conversion, exercise or exchange of
Common Stock Equivalents shall be deemed outstanding immediately after the
issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents. Such adjustment shall be made
whenever such shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are
issued. However, upon the expiration of any Common Stock Equivalents the
issuance of which resulted in an adjustment in the Conversion Price
pursuant to this Section, if any such Common Stock Equivalents 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 Common Stock
Equivalents) had the adjustment of the Conversion Price made upon the
issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents been made on the basis of
offering for subscription or purchase only that number of shares of Common
Stock actually purchased upon the exercise of such Common Stock Equivalents
actually exercised.
10
(v) If the Company, at any time while Debentures are outstanding,
shall distribute to all holders of Common Stock (and not to Holders)
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 Debentures 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
Price determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the
numerator shall be such Closing 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 Holders 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 Holders shall have the right
thereafter to, at their 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 only 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 Holders of the Debentures 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 aggregate
of its outstanding principal amount of Debentures, plus all interest and
other amounts due and payable thereon, at a price determined in accordance
with Section 3(b). The entire prepayment price shall be paid in cash. This
provision shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications or share
exchanges.
(vii) All calculations under this Section 4 shall be made to the
nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. No
adjustments in the Conversion Price shall be required if such adjustment is
less than $0.01, provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of
this Section are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken
into account in any subsequent adjustment.
(viii) Whenever either the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to
any of Section 4(c)(ii) - (v), 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.

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; (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 the Debentures, and shall cause to be mailed to the Holders
at their last addresses as they shall appear upon the stock books of the
Company, 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 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.
Holders are entitled to convert Debentures during the 20-day period
commencing the date of such notice to the effective date of the event
triggering such notice.
(x) In case of any (1) merger or consolidation of the Company with or
into another Person, or (2) sale by the Company of more than one-half of
the assets of the Company (on an as valued basis) in one or a series of
related transactions, a Holder shall have the right to (A) if permitted
under Section 3(b) hereof, exercise its rights of prepayment under Section
3(a) with respect to such event, (B) convert its aggregate principal amount
of Debentures 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 Debentures 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, (x) require the surviving entity to issue shares of
convertible preferred stock or convertible debentures with such aggregate
stated value or in such face amount, as the case may be, equal to the
aggregate principal amount of Debentures then held by such Holder, plus all
accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts owing thereon, which newly
issued shares of preferred stock or debentures shall have terms identical
(including with respect to conversion) to the terms of this Debenture
(except, in the case of preferred stock, as may be required to reflect the
differences between equity and debt) and shall be entitled to all of the
rights and privileges of a Holder of Debentures set forth herein and the
agreements pursuant to which the Debentures were issued (including, without
limitation, as such rights relate to the acquisition, transferability,
registration and listing of such shares of stock other securities issuable
upon conversion thereof), and (y) simultaneously with the issuance of such
convertible preferred stock or convertible debentures, shall have the right
to convert such instrument only into shares of stock and other securities,
cash and property receivable upon or deemed to be held by holders of Common
Stock following such merger or consolidation. 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 Holders 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.
12

available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock solely for
the purpose of issuance upon conversion of the Debentures and payment of
interest on the Debentures, each as herein provided, free from preemptive rights
or any other actual contingent purchase rights of persons other than the
Holders, 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 the Purchase Agreement) be issuable (taking into account the
adjustments and restrictions of Section 4(b)) upon the conversion of the
outstanding principal amount of the Debentures 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, nonassessable and, if the Underlying Shares Registration Statement has
been declared effective under the Securities Act, registered for public sale in
accordance with such Underlying Shares Registration Statement.
(e) 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 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.
(f) The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on
conversion of the Debentures shall be made without charge to the Holders 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 Debentures 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.

than $500,000 of the principal amount of the Debentures then held by the Holders
and up to $1,000,000 of the principal amount of the Debentures then held by the

maximum set forth in the immediately preceding sentence) shall occur pro rata
among the Holders by reference to the original principal amount of Debentures
acquired by all Holders on the Original Issue Date. The Company may only deliver
an Optional Prepayment Notice to the Holders if, on the Notice Date: (i) either
there is an effective Underlying Shares Registration Statement pursuant to which
the Holders are permitted to utilize the prospectus thereunder to resell all of
the issued Underlying Shares and all of the Underlying Shares as are issuable
upon conversion in full of the Debentures subject to the Optional Prepayment
Notice nor may all of such issued or issuable Underlying Shares be sold without
volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act,
as determined by counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter,
addressed and delivered prior to the Notice Date to the Company's transfer agent
in the form and substance acceptable to the Holders and such transfer agent and

notice to the Company given at any time after any of the foregoing conditions
shall cease to be in effect, to invalidate ab initio such prepayment,
notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary. The Holders may
convert any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Debentures
subject to an Optional Redemption Notice prior to the date that the Optional
Prepayment Price is due and paid in full.
14
(b) The Optional Prepayment Price is due on the tenth Trading Day following
the Notice Date. If any portion of the Optional Prepayment Price shall not be
paid by the Company by expiration of such tenth Trading Day, interest shall
accrue thereon at the rate of 18% per annum (or the maximum rate permitted by
applicable law, whichever is less) until the Optional Prepayment Price plus all
such interest is paid in full. In addition, if any portion of the Optional
Prepayment Price remains unpaid after such date, the Holders subject to such
prepayment may elect, by written notice to the Company given at any time
thereafter, to invalidate ab initio such prepayment, notwithstanding anything
herein contained to the contrary. If a Holder elects to invalidate such
prepayment the Company shall promptly, and, in any event, not later than three
Trading Days from receipt of such Xxxxxx's notice of such election, return to
such Holder all of the Debentures for which the Optional Prepayment Price shall
not have been paid in full.

Debentures to be prepaid shall equal the sum of (i) 120% of the principal amount
of the Debentures to be prepaid, and (ii) all interest, other amounts, costs,
expenses and liquidated damages due in respect of such Debentures.

of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of
this Debenture. The failure of the Company or the Holder to insist upon strict
adherence to any term of this Debenture on one or more occasions shall not be
considered a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon
strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Debenture. Any waiver
must be in writing.
18
Section 13. If any provision of this Debenture is invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, the balance of this Debenture shall remain in effect, and if any
provision is inapplicable to any person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless
remain applicable to all other persons and circumstances. If it shall be found

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 the Debentures 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 14. 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.
Section 15. The payment obligations under this Debenture and the
obligations of the Company to the Holder arising upon the conversion of all or
any of the Debentures in accordance with the provisions hereof are secured
pursuant to the Pledge Agreement (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).
