If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company shall round the fraction of a share up to the nearest whole share of Common Stock. The Company shall pay all transfer, stamp, and similar taxes that may be payable for the issuance and delivery of Common Stock upon conversion of any Conversion Amount.

 

 3 

 

 

(i) “Conversion Amount” means the portion of the Principal and accrued and unpaid Interest to be converted, redeemed, or otherwise for which this determination is being made.

 

(ii) “Conversion Price” means, as of any Conversion Date (as defined below) or other date of determination the lesser of: (1) $0.10, but not below $0.001 par value, which shall not be increased without Holder’s consent (the “Fixed Conversion Price”), subject to adjustment as provided herein; or (2) 100% of the lowest Closing Bid Price during the 20 Trading Days immediately preceding the Conversion Date or other date of determination.

 

(b) Mechanics of Conversion.

 

(i) To convert any Conversion Amount into shares of Common Stock on any date (a “Conversion Date”), the Holder shall: (1) transmit by facsimile (or otherwise deliver), for receipt on or prior to 11:59 p.m., New York Time, on such date, a copy of an executed notice of conversion in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Conversion Notice”) to the Company; and (2) if required by subsection 4(b)(iv) below, deliver this Debenture by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service to the Company (or an indemnification undertaking reasonably satisfactory to the Company respecting this Debenture in the case of its loss, theft, or destruction).

 

(ii) On or before the third Business Day following the date of receipt of a Conversion Notice, the Company shall: (1) if legends are not required to be placed on certificates of Common Stock: (A) provided that the transfer agent is participating in the Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program of the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system; or (B) if the transfer agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, issue and deliver to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate, without any restrictive legend, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled; or (2) if legends are required under the applicable law, issue and deliver to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate, without any restrictive legend, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled. If this Debenture is physically surrendered for conversion and the outstanding Principal and accrued and unpaid Interest is greater than the Principal and accrued and unpaid Interest portion of the Conversion Amount being converted, then the Company shall, as soon as practicable and in no event later than three Business Days after receipt of this Debenture and at its own expense, issue and deliver to the Holder a new debenture representing the outstanding Principal and accrued and unpaid Interest not converted. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of this Debenture shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock upon the transmission of a Conversion Notice.

 

(iii) If within three Trading Days after the Company’s receipt of a Conversion Notice the Company shall fail to issue and deliver a certificate to the Holder or credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s conversion of any Conversion Amount (a “Conversion Failure”), and if on or after the fourth Trading Day the Holder purchases (in an open-market transaction or otherwise) Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within three Business Days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either: (1) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver the certificate (and to issue the Common Stock) shall terminate; or (2) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the Common Stock and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of such number of shares of Common Stock multiplied by the Closing Bid Price on the Conversion Date.

(iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion, transfer, or assignment of any portion of this Debenture in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Debenture to the Company unless: (1) the Conversion Amount is equal to the outstanding amount of this Debenture on the Conversion Date; or (2) the Holder has provided the Company with prior written notice (which notice may be included in a Conversion Notice) requesting reissuance of this Debenture upon physical surrender of this Debenture. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the Principal and accrued and unpaid Interest converted and the dates of the conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of this Debenture upon conversion.

 

(c) Limitation on Conversions. 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 hereunder, to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion or receipt of the Interest payment, the Holder, together with any “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144 of the Securities Act) 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 (such limitation shall be referred to herein as the “Ownership Limitation”). If the Holder has delivered a Conversion Notice for a Conversion Amount 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 Ownership Limitation, the Company shall notify the Holder of this fact and shall honor the conversion for the maximum amount permitted to be converted on such Conversion Date in accordance with subsection 4(a), and any Conversion Amount tendered for conversion in excess of the Ownership Limitation shall remain outstanding under this Debenture. The provisions of this subsection 4(c) 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. The foregoing Ownership Limitation shall automatically terminate on the death of Iehab Hawatmeh.

 

(d) Other Provisions.

 

(i) All calculations under this section 4 shall be rounded to the nearest $0.0001 or whole share.

 

(ii) The Company shall reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of this Debenture, that number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to convert all outstanding Principal and accrued and unpaid Interest, based upon the Conversion Price. If at any time the Company does not have a sufficient number of Conversion Shares authorized and available, then the Company shall call and hold a special meeting of its stockholders within 60 days of that time for the sole purpose of increasing the number of authorized shares of Common Stock.

 

 5 

 

 

(iii) The Company represents, warrants, and agrees that this Debenture is being issued solely to evidence the continuing obligation evidenced by the Prior Debenture and that for the purposes of Rule 144 of the Securities Act, this Debenture shall be deemed to have been acquired and fully paid for at the same time as the surrendered Prior Debenture, which is one year before the date of issuance of this Debenture.

 

(iv) Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of Default pursuant to section 2 above for the Company’s failure to deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon conversion within the period specified herein, and the Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity, including a decree of specific performance 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.

 

5. ADJUSTMENTS TO CONVERSION PRICE.

 

(a) Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding, shall: (i) 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; (ii) subdivide outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares; (iii) combine (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares; or (iv) issue by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then the Fixed Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding before such event and the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this subsection 5(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive the dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination, or reclassification.

 

(b) Notice. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to this section 5, 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 the adjustment.

 

(c) Adjustment on Merger, Consolidation, etc. In case of any: (i) merger or consolidation of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company with or into another Person; or (ii) sale by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company of more than one-half of the assets of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company in one or a series of related transactions, the Holder shall have the right to: (1) exercise any rights under subsection 2(b) above; (2) 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 the Holder shall be entitled upon such event or series of related events to receive the amount of securities, cash, and property as the shares of Common Stock into which the aggregate amount of this Debenture could have been converted immediately prior to such merger, consolidation, or sales would have been entitled; or (3) 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 the Holder, plus all accrued and unpaid Interest and other amounts owing thereon, which shall have terms identical (including respecting conversion) to the terms of this Debenture, and the Holder shall be entitled to all of the rights and privileges set forth herein and in the agreements pursuant to which this Debenture was issued. In the case of clause (3), the conversion price applicable for the newly issued debenture shall be based upon the amount of securities, cash, and property that each share of Common Stock would receive in the transaction and the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the effectiveness or closing date for the transaction. The terms of any 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 subsection 5(c) upon any conversion or redemption following such event. This provision shall similarly apply to successive events.

The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Debenture, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of subsection 4(b)(iv) following conversion or redemption of any portion of this Debenture, the outstanding Principal and Interest represented by this Debenture may be less than the Principal and Interest stated on the face of this Debenture.
