The Company shall use its best efforts to obtain shareholder approval of an increase in such authorized number of shares of common stock.  This provision is intended to modify the like covenant contained in the February 2009 Amendment Agreement.”

If the Company shall fail to have a sufficient number of shares authorized and reserved to the Holders by December 31, 2009 to effect the full conversion of all then outstanding Debentures and the full exercise of all then outstanding Warrants, regardless of the reason and regardless of whether or not the Company shall have used its best efforts to obtain such shareholder approval, such failure shall constitute an Event of Default under the Debentures and the Warrants.  Each Holder agrees to vote its shares FOR the proposal to amended to the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to increase its authorized common stock to 250,000,000 shares.

 

2.   Amendment to Warrants . Each of the Warrants (where “Warrants,” as used herein, shall have the meaning set forth in the February 2009 Amendment Agreement) are hereby amended to add the following, immediately after Section 5 of each of the Warrants, as a new Section 6:

 

“6.           Default and Redemption.

 

(a) Events of Default.  Each of the following events which occur while any Warrants are outstanding shall be considered to be an “Event of Default” :

 

(i)   Failure To Authorize and Reserve Common Stock .  At any time after December 31, 2009 the Company, for any reason or no reason, does  not  have a sufficient number of shares of common stock authorized and reserved for issuance to the Holder to effect the exercise of the total number of outstanding shares of this Warrant (a “Share Reservation Default” );

 

(ii)   Failure To Deliver Common Stock .  The Company shall have failed, for any reason, to deliver to the Holder certificates evidencing the Warrant Shares which are subject to a Notice of Exercise by the Warrant Share Delivery Date and such failure remains uncured for a period of more than 3 Trading Days.

 

  (b) Mandatory Redemption; Certain Adjustments on Default.

 

(i) Mandatory Redemption Amount .  In addition to any other damages allowed under the terms of this Warrant or the Transaction Documents, if any Events of Default shall occur and any such Event of Default continues for an additional 3 Trading Days after the Holder provides written notice to the Company that an Event of Default has occurred and specifying the factual basis therefor, then thereafter, unless waived by the Holder, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, at the option of the Holder, each such option exercisable through the delivery of one or more written notices to the Company by such Holder (a “Redemption Notice” ), the Specified Amount (as defined below) of this Warrant shall be immediately redeemed by the Company and the Company shall pay to the Holder (a “Mandatory Redemption” ) an amount (the “Mandatory Redemption Amount” or the “Default Amount” ) equal to 100% of the greater of (i) the Black-Scholes value of the Specified Amount (as defined below) of this Warrant on the date of such Default Notice  and (2) the highest Black-Scholes value of the Specified Amount (as defined below) of this Warrant from the date of such Redemption Notice (or, in the case of a failure to deliver Warrant Shares following an Exercise, from the date of the applicable Exercise) through the Trading Day that the Mandatory Redemption Amount is paid to the Holder.  Each Redemption Notice shall specify the amount (the “Specified Amount” ) of the Warrant that is subject to a Mandatory Redemption, which may constitute all or any part of the Unexercised Portion of the Warrant that has not been covered in a prior Redemption Notice.  For purposes hereof, “Unexercised Portion” shall mean the number of shares outstanding and unexercised with respect to the Warrant in question, plus any and all shares issuable upon any previously submitted notice of exercise of the Warrant which have not yet been delivered to the Holder, in each case as of the date in question.   For purposes of clarity, a Mandatory Redemption as to a given Warrant shall be triggered only by a written Default Notice from the Holder of the Warrant and the delivery of a Default Notice by one Holder as to its Warrant does not trigger a Mandatory Redemption by any other Holder as such other Holder’s Warrant.

(ii) Liquidated Damages .  The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the sums payable as liquidated damages or pursuant to a Mandatory Redemption shall give rise to liquidated damages and not penalties.  The parties further acknowledge that (i) the amount of loss or damages likely to be incurred by the Holder is incapable or is difficult to precisely estimate, (ii) the amounts specified bear a reasonable proportion and are not plainly or grossly disproportionate to the probable loss likely to be incurred by the Investor, and (iii) the parties are sophisticated business parties and have been represented by sophisticated and able legal and financial counsel and negotiated this Agreement at arm’s length.

 

The Default Amount, together with all other amounts payable hereunder, shall immediately become due and payable, all without demand, presentment or notice, all of which hereby are expressly waived, together with all costs, including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses, of collection, and the Holder shall be entitled to Exercise all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity.”

 

3.   Addition of Future Interest Accrual to Outstanding Principal Amounts of the Debentures .  The Company and the Holders agree that the outstanding principal amount of each Debenture shall be increased on the Effective Date by an amount equal to all accrued and unpaid interest as of the Effective Date (the “Accrued Interest”), plus all interest that would have accrued on the principal amount plus the Accrued Interest such Debenture from the Effective Date to the Maturity Date, without giving effect to any potential payments of the Monthly Redemption Amount during such period (the “ Future Interest Amount ”).   Schedule “A” attached hereto reflects the new outstanding principal amount of each of the respective September 2007 Convertible Debentures and May 2008 Convertible Debentures, as of the Effective Date after giving effect to the addition of the Future Interest Amount.  As a result of the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to make the quarterly interest payments on the Monthly Interest Payment Date required by the Debentures from the Effective Date to the Maturity Date, and interest shall cease to accrue during such period.

 

4.   Adjustment to Conversion Price of the Debentures .  The definition of “ Conversion Price ” in Section 4(b) of each of the Debentures is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety with the following:

 

Conversion Price .  The conversion price in effect on any Conversion Date shall be equal to the average of the VWAPs for each of the trading days from July 1, 2009 through August 30, 2009, which the parties agree is equal to $0.45 , subject to adjustment herein (the “ Conversion Price ”).”
